  1. I still love Ultraviolence the best and if she were to revisit a concept or musical style, I would rather it be the live-sounding psychedelic rock Auerbach production. I feel the production on Honeymoon so far is really weak. On HM, there isn't enough percussion and you can't really stay alert through 6 minutes of mostly strings and piano and the verses are far too monotonous. On HBTB, I love the trap influenced beat but think it could be more prominent. I think the production for the bridge of TLY is pretty much perfect but is somewhat generic for the rest of the song. I also dislike the jarring layering of her voice at the part where she sings "And I still get trashed..." (also dark blue dark blue). Overall, of the songs so far, the melodies are ok(HM verses/HBTB chorus) to good (HM chorus/HBTB verses) to brilliant (HM bridge/TLY bridge) but the production is uninspired. I had heard great things about Rick Nowels. Though Emiles production is divisive, Born To Die wouldn't be the record it is without it. The samples and hip hop elements juxtaposed with the orchestral elements really made the songs unique and amazing. Ultraviolence production was a symphony of layered rock sounds with guitars and heavy drums (while being varied, eg Old Money, FMWUTTT) and it was one of the areas where critics applauded. However, production for this album is worrying. Although Lanas voice is powerfully beautiful, the songs released so far suffer from there not being great instrumentation to complement it. Sometimes I like to listen to the instrumentals of songs from BTD/UV. I don't see myself particularly wanting to listen to the instrumentals of the songs released so far.
  2. You can listen to TLY and HM or recordings of 2 lectures/talks by a astronomer and Elon Musk if you are more interested in, you know, SpaceX and Tesla, what's going to happen with our intergalactic possibilities.
  3. writing, producing, and promoting a song only to have a part of it be on a film trailer
  4. the box set is some nice pictures, a hard cover album booklet and a box. £40?? I'm probably just going to get the CD.
  5. how much will the cd box set probably cost in pounds? it seems quite expensive
  6. that has got to be one of the worst titles I've ever heard for a song wtf I hope she was joking
  7. lmao at people claiming Lana is some sort of modern-day musical messiah who is above commercial success and then later claiming that billboard fucking up the data for the charts is literally akin to rape
  8. don't worry there's still time for lana to decide to rerecord the album in full and claim that September 18 was actually the due date for her child with franny
  9. it's so surreal. i can't survive if this is all that's real
  10. Tag You're It has been on repeat. It's so good (and quite scary and dark as well)
  11. Even though I know the real lyric, every time I listen to HBTB I always hear "you take the whale" I think it's just the way she sings it Edit: saw @@FKAbrandon post I'm not alone lmao
  12. nah it's gonna have perfect promo but get ripped apart by all the mainstream press for being not enough like ultraviolence
  13. I think Lana liked a post that was telling people to stop dragging that acc, so she knows about the account and its not impossible that she DMs that account with exclusive goss
  14. wait u might be able to get a Japan exclusive track
  15. ok so now we have what seems to be a release date when does this huntymoon speculation thread turn into the pre-release thread???

    Song vs. Song

    Meet Me in the Pale Moonlight vs Off To The Races
  17. while franny feeds her tangerines and bits of sandwiches from off camera
  18. It pretty much flopped in the UK because Lana's not toured in the UK or done any promo here for years. If you were to ask a random person about Lana they'd probably think of the Summertime Sadness remix or her controversial statements last year...
  19. James: girl how bout' I write a book about u Lana: umm no thx wat (months later) JF: girl I wrote a book about u Lana: umm wat JF: yeah it's getting released and i've already put up a preorder on amazon
  20. this is like taylor swift releasing a classic country song Begin Again before BOOM we are never getting back together BOOM i knew you were trouble BOOM 22
