Jeanne Dielman

Many of the new songs are very long AND unconventional? 
 
   
 
Anyway, it's interesting that Lana only mentioned FJM singing with her on the album. I wonder if Batiste, Tommy, and The Bleachers only serve background vocals or perhaps they only have writing credits and she decided to give them the "feature" treatment (see SYML). 

Going from an allegedly wild track named American Whore to an interlude that includes her pastor's speech to potentially gospel/jazz-influenced tracks co-written by Jon Batiste will certainly be a ride, lol. 
 
I hope that the interlude will be in the vein of Violet and the pastor's speech is something strictly philosophical/spiritual. 
 
I doubt the Genesis track will be an interlude though. Hermosa is also credited as a co-writer, and Lana said that the Hermosa tracks were the first ones she worked on for this record. I think that the other interlude will be track 10 (SYML) or 11 (RIOPY). 

Yikes.
 
I wonder how many times he's condemned Lana for living with her random boyfriends btw.

i understand the uncertainty regarding the sermon interlude. i also can understand Lanas POV with wanting to incorporate her faith into a work of art. for all we know, faith could’ve been what brought her back from a catastrophic period of her life. she’s been open with her alcoholism and mental health issues, her faith could have been the one piece of life that she found strong to hold onto. religions have so many controversial views and beliefs that comes with so much judgement and agony. but with Lana, we know her music is her DIARY. it’s our decision to tune into it or not based on personal religious/non religious views.

Exactly. Also, Watercolor Eyes had a full first day of tracking, while only 8 hours were counted for Ocean Blvd. I hope that the song will be added on several playlists on Spotify and the gays on TikTok make it go viral, because the potential is there. 

one single with 0 promo that no one knew would come out yesterday vs the lead single of one of the biggest tv series ever only for it to end up barely getting 100k streams more 

Yeah probably something like Violet I guess

Lana and Jack also have songwriting credit on the interlude it so it can't be just a recording, maybe they added instrumentals?

People clutching their pearls and jumping into conclusions about the overall sound and direction of LDR9 despite the fact that BOZ said that the album is «so wild that he couldn’t believe that he loved it that much» and that it has a lot of variety and lush instrumentation is just sending me. Not to mention that she’s working with several new people on this record (Batiste, Genesis, etc.).
 
It’s pretty obvious that she’s currently fond of a more mellow/grounded/subtle sound and focuses on her conversational/free-flowing poetic lyricism, but there is space for sonic experimentation - see BOZ’s description of A&W - and vocal as well (White Dress on COCC; Sweet Carolina and Arcadia on BB). I happen to be a fan of her latest records, probably because I prefer my music sparser. Hopefully this new body of work is cohesive and showcases artistic growth.
 
Pitchfork’s review was to-the-point: the title track is an admittedly dreamier and more lush version of her latest style, sure,  but it also reveals little details in its sonic direction and influences - the sigh of relief; the celebratory choir; the tiny mumbling; the buildup; the crescendo of warmth -, as well as in its lyrics - the writing is far more layered and, dare I say, contradictory than expected: it’s both nostalgic and mournful; its deceptively straightforward metaphors about the fleetingness of life, forgotten spaces and blurry memories are quite devastating, because they can be interpreted in different ways, and I suppose they will be further illuminated by the overall concept and direction of the album.
 
I don’t know, I’m quite optimistic about the final result. But I’ll reserve my judgment until I get to listen to the entire record. 

He also said that she should have named the album The Grants, so I suppose it should be a really special opener. 

I found Arcadia's Spotify streams:
 
And DYKTATUOB's partial total: 1,355,631 streams.
