Didn’t BoZ say that the cover she posted was one out of three possible? 

don't remember about that tbh but what gives me hope is its design. nothing is easier than to change the text that isn't even on the picture itself

also arcadia in the meaning of innocence, simple and quiet pleasure suits the current cover so well

if this is true what about the godly album cover? 

honestly that's the only thing that worries me about the potentially new title

i go away for a day and there's that

i'd love arcadia as an album title. makes me think of the serene queen

....anyways

I think the title of the new snippet song may be like "*something* Woman/Girl/Baby" because the lyrics are mainly just a poetic description of herself.

blue jean baby, LA lady sorry lmao i'm so obsessed

i can't believe we're having a conversation abt piano making literally any song a piano ballad

Babe I love Lana and will defend this puta till I’m blue in the head, I just miss being excited being a stan for her, she is by far my favourite artist but it’s difficult connecting with her music the same way, like releases used to be so well thought out and her artistry commanded so much grandeur and escapism that really made things interesting but I can’t help but feel her releases these last few records have felt so much like she’s caved into trying to appeal to critics and like an older crowd as if her audience isn’t entirely made up of Generation Z listeners

 

Like I don’t want her depressed, some of unreleased happy Lizzy songs are some of her BEST and I don’t def wouldn’t want her to be singing songs about partying and drugs or whatever it is commonly associated with younger artists, but maturing definitely does not need to mean making more boring music

 

Laid back instrumentation DOES NOT imply better quality art and honestly with a few standout tracks Chemtrails was honestly a miss and whilst these last 3 singles are beautiful melodically it’s like...girl we’ve heard this a million times

 

She experimented so much as an artist in the past, and I can’t help but feel she’s stagnated as an artist like we’ve been stuck on like the same similar topics in different fonts for like so long, her writing has grown leaps and bounds which is great but at the end of the day it’s music and if it sounds sonically boring it’s boring like if I wanted to hear literature I’d listen to an audiobook 

i understand what you mean and when i listen to previous albums i miss those kinds of songs too, the angry, hopeless ultraviolence, dreamy cinematic honeymoon. but i think what she's doing now isn't for critics or certain parts of audience, it really reflects how lana herself evolves. maybe it sounds naive but i see her as an almost independent singer songwriter expressing herself and her own experience through music, not a usual pop singer following trends.

i miss those eras, moods and sounds, her unreleased from 2010-2013 are amazing. but they just don't suit her anymore. we change, she changes too and it doesn't always go along. but i personally just accepted it and watch what road she takes next, and i'm almost sure it won't be just piano ballads forever

When she posted the snippet, BoZ thought it was produced by Drew Erickson, who produced songs for the Killers. 

also weyes blood's titanic rising! i'm afraid to have too high expectations but it still gives me hope for more interesting, rich and cinematic production (the likes of text book)

bigger sister to paradise? angels forever release finally coming

sorry guys idk what thread this technically belongs in (ig updates? pre release? random convo? help ), but I just edited the selfie + hydrangeas from her most recent ig post like they could be for the BB album shoot, these are the vibes I'm trying to manifest and when I saw the pics that lyric immediately came to mind 

this looks SO beautiful!!! like an LP cover straight from the 70s! i can't some of you guys really should work with lana

Can someone throw ideas of what they think this album is gonna sound like, realistically? We know she doesn't like to repeat eras (is that even true tho or did i just pull that out of my ass?) so i'm not expecting this album to be too similar to Chemtrails  

 

Tangentially, what song(s) from NFR would u say Chemtrails grew from? And what song(s) on Chemtrails do we think BB will grow from/expand on (both sonically/thematically)? 

 

it will be slow and very personal, even more personal than COCC, it will start with piano songs, move to TB & more things like it, take a rockish break with thunder and return to piano in the end with a heartbreaking song.  and so far BB gives me white dress/LMLYLAW/DTWD vibes (the BRIDGE I CRAVE for a whole song in that style)

now that jack's gone i hope she will find a new sound though, even if it stays very stripped-down. idk, even with WW and BB you can tell it's something a bit different. not to be a jack hater i'm just tired of him and kinda want her to move on

Collab. Now 

thunder with TLSP, now jesse... are we getting something rockish after all???

Text Book is still so good

The atmosphere in it, the noises in the verses,  the tempo change,  when the background singers sing oooh it sounds so haunting,  the river noises in the outro 

They way we are about to get probably more songs by Zach & Gabe Simon..we won

it's still my favorite out of the three! partly just because it's not piano driven i mean i love ww and bb but text book kinda stands out. almost reminds me of honeymoon with all those details. really hope there are more songs with such production on the album

14 minutes ago, Deadly Nightshade said:

Electric guitars and a soft rock sound pls ... 

honestly that's all i want but know we won't get

i don't think they mean future albums with jack. multiple albums over the past year probably mean cocc, violet, maybe iron gates and some songs that got scrapped from bb

i can't stop listening to Thunder

i want to stream it officially so bad so i'm trying not to overplay it too much and then she'll scrap it again and all my efforts will go in vain lmao

We’re getting very much ahead of ourselves. Ben or Ed (can’t remember which one) said we’d get the album before end of year. Does it mean it’s a certainty? Not at all, but his caption makes me believe the album was talked about with Lana and it should be out before or in December. 

ben posted bb cover and captured it "2 albums in a year" so technically yes... but  i don't really trust anyone after everything we've been through

i'm so afraid that if she changes the title she will also change the cover and it's gonna be another picsart selfie or some disastrous iphone pic  current cover looks SO good i don't want to lose it

i'm looking forward to transitions in this album! she should've had a full transition album for a long time ago, i could see ultraviolence, honeymoon and NFR! having seamless transitions that would really make sense

  Reveal hidden contents

4 versions of the album, explicit w/ transitions, explicit w/o transitions, non-explicit w/ transitions and non-explicit w/o transitions 

 

i love transition from freak to art deco but i also hate the fact you can't even hear it on vinyl cause they're on different records so yeah manifesting more on BB

love that! i'll try to draw something decent for fanart

the bruises theory makes literally zero sense

if those colors mean anything at all then i'd like to think blue stands for sadness that man was about to bring, green and grey for calm and happiness she feels with her friends. and the "bruises" in covers are obviously bc of picsart filters.

wouldn’t be mad if lana swapped out nikki lane for him on her upcoming country collabs… 

now that's the country collab we all really need

I just got conflicting feelings of her releasing unreleased stuff that we’ve heard before, I feel like in the past for me it’s usually a hit or miss. Like I love Architecture but I don’t vibe that much with the Best American Record. I too quickly get attached to the demo and then feel weird about the new version

Does anyone else feel that way?

 

like I’m excited for Thunder but if it’s changed a lot I wonder what it could be like

same. it's not even just instrumentals or lyrics that bother me about BAR, the whole emotion is different from the demo. i love thunder and i hope it won't happen with it but i still can't really imagine how it would fit with the singles the way it is, maybe it'll be the next HBTB/TJF... i just hope that electric guitar isn't going anywhere

wait is thunder getting released?

BOZ confirmed it i believe + lana liked an insta post that mentioned thunder (and cherry blossom) will be on BB!

i NEEDED to get my thoughts out somewhere ever since march so! i actually loved the album, i wish there were more songs but it still feels compact and complete. it never seemed to me like a continuation of NFR, there are certain similarities, but all in all it's a standalone body of work. in particular because of how personal it is - probably the most personal album of lana's, i guess. BB might take that title tho, judging by the singles.
