bluechemtrails

w her deactivating/ leaving her honeymoon acct., in a strange way, I kinda feel a bit relieved by it somehow. i was wondering and felt how blue banisters seemed to be an album that best encapsulated her career then, and with this bright release sorta touching on things in a nice and freeing sorta way, it feels consistent to do so. 

I was thinking about the role of how social media plays a part with interaction of course, and to this it makes me think that she'd rather just get back to her inner world, and of self rather than having to interact after the journey she's already shared with the world. honeymoon, maybe serving as a reminder of the type of phase, and how she's already written about intergenerational trauma, how society views her versus who she is and the dynamics that play when ur not in a direct mode of popular thinking etc. I like to think she's done this because she's accomplished what she wanted to and no longer needs to play that kind of game, being an outlier of a star past aside of course. 

I was kinda surprised that she even shared another record and i wanna say that it can't be her last given her penchant for expression and wanting to release the activity in her mind and so on, but regardless, I'm still very much happy and content to've been able to feel the same way w blue banisters to now. 

fully aware of the parasocial, and have had lots of fun speculating on the pre releases to the point of actual manifestation ( still didn't appreciate the side jabs but i can't articulate anymore to be willfully misunderstood anyway), I wanna say that it's been such a journey being able to identify things she sings about, and almost to what it feels like personal degrees, to go thru similar situations and being able to actually feel kinda protected in this way *cue the coconut song* 

it's fulfilling and also refreshing to be a Lana fan personally. I am gonna miss her perspective and trying to understand where she's coming from and be able to revel thru that, but we've got lots of material and the album's still very much fresh, and lends to me listening to how much of a late summer day blue banister feels like. 

I do wish she'd release another video for this album, but I guess candy necklace's vid about pitfalls sorta goes in theme so I'll take that as a form of theme consistency. 

let me just say these fake accounts do not know a single thing about trickery foolery or fakery...... lana would never post pinterest photos, if you really want to fool everyone there needs to be posts with 8 random photos which include but are not limited to a blurry picture of feet, the grainy moon, at least one poorly cropped screenshot of something someone else posted, and a random drawing/poem/painting that has no connection to the rest of the posts .. and maybe throw in some boobs while you're at it

As far as I know West Coast radio mix is only available to play if your region is Germany while Flipside is only available in Japan.

I listen to this song every day 

This is so Joni Mitchell in the most Lana way possible. I’m actually lowkey obsessed with it.

I've been a fan for two years now and still have no idea who this woman actually is.

His signature is so nice. Too bad it’s not on the actual cd

okay, I have a theory that this account was originally created to promote the festival tour and Lana wanted to close honeymoon much earlier. But then she decided to leave it open to promote Rob's album as well and this oceanblvd account became useless. I'm not sure what will happen now, but I don't think she'll use it as an official account for the next era

Looking like a maritime Mike Pence, he has done his best Brian Wilson while donning Prada leather in a pristine Los Angeles xeriscape.
can’t believe they said that when lana is so anti-trump

The soundtrack of my teenage years 
This album cannot be topped , pure brilliance 

anyways.... i cant put into words the importance this album has on my life!
 
it was the first project lana released after becoming a fan of hers so everything was more than special to me. i thrilled when she announced the album on the tropico premiere.... i miss those days where i was on twitter seeing photos of her walking to the market or whatever.... every memory from the pre release of UV is special to me 
you must imagine how excited i was when west coast was announced. i couldnt wait to come home after school just to hear it (i was so anxious i dropped my lunch). i was ready to post the photos of her early 2014 tour on my pinterest!
 
i remember i was sick when brooklyn baby was released, on a sunday i guess. the next day i made eye contact with my school crush i kinda dedicate this song to him 

it was football world cup here in brazil, there was excitement in the streets and the album was my soundtrack through the vacations - i came home after a brazil vs mexico match just to find out the shades of cool mv was out!!!. i didnt had spotify back then so i was listening on youtube, soundcloud and other sites. it was so magical to me (till this day).
 
a month after the album came out, i found it in a store -  there was only one copy and ofc i bought it. MY FIRST EVER CD OF MY FAVOURITE ARTIST. i was shocked when i saw it on the store, lana wasnt that big in brazil. i was so scared to get stolen (as if someone would steal an album ) and almost dropped it on the floor when i took it ou of that f*cking package.
 
2014 was the happiest year and fovourite moment of my life -  the last year i lived in my hometown before moving to another state; the last year i was in touch with my childhood friends; the last time i saw the guy i was in love. all the memories and happy moments i had in 2014, UV was playing in the background. so it's more than an album to me - its a memory of good and not so good moments ofc.
 
My fav for life. The heavy atmosphere it brings, the lyrics, the aestethic, the era.... it will always be her best

how did i nearly miss this  happy birthday ultraviolence. you changed my life

Happy bday to one of Lana’s best. 
 
You came at the exact time I needed you (thanks, nasty breakup). 
 
I vividly remember my thoughts the first time I listened to you:
the goosebumps while listening to the chorus of Cruel World, the feeling I was listening to an old and unknown vinyl by a forgotten 70s singer, « that girl is gonna die with a needle in her arm before she turns 40 if everything she says on this is true », « Money Power Glory has to be cynically sarcastic », « Old Money is so incredible », « Sad Girl sounds like she is the heroine of a noir movie », « oh that bridge on Pretty When You Cry!!!! Wow! I’m stronger than all my men except for you - bitch I can relate »
 
Ultraviolence, you are so iconic.
