Butterfly Knife

heart shaped box  

the tiktok stans are tasteless we do not care

Now tha i connected the pieces i realizes some things:
- Lana's is actually producing this album almost a year non stop because we have A LOT of times that we got her working on that starting in december 2021 with the variety awards (saying that already was doing something and ''the next one would be even better''). 
- The W photoshoot aesthetic have substancial chances to be the vibe of the album if we think about how lana interferes in the creative process when shes doing any kind of collaboration job like that (like when se covered complex magazine during the lust for life promotion and said the she would only give interview if they did in black in white and with the ''Malena'' aesthetic). And it seems that the interview was done in the middle of the creation of what this album is going to be.
- This is the first time that we have a lot of speculation and different names for the production team... far different from place we've been with bb and cocc. Like theres a possibility to have, jack, gabe, rick, jon and drew at the same record. Sound exciting.

daddy nowels is gonna pull up to that studio I HAVE FAITH 

Can't wait for Nikki Lane's post with Lana in the studio tonight xx 

Im a delusional whore so here are my thoughts:
 
1. They were probably recording LDR11 LDR12 LDR13 newer new material, but nothing related to LDR9/X since its settled its done its finished.
 
2. They  were probably recording a buzz single / side promo song like "Looking for America" which is not included, can be done overnight & will be dropped alongside with the album rollout.
 
3. They were probably in the last stages of mixing / remastering the album
 
4. They were listening to the completed album atp

this is the man who stripped Chemtrails back even FURTHER when Lana said it needed to “hit harder”.

12 tracks. No unreleased/leaked material. 2 tracks over 10 minutes long (track 6 and track 12). Opening track is 8 minutes long. One interlude (track 7, produced by Antonoff) with a distorted suburbia-gone-wrong soundscape à la LA Who Am I to Love You as the album changes from East Coast jazzy richness to ambient spacey contemplation. Last two tracks are produced by Antonoff, track 13 is the automatic singing track they recorded in April, while track 14 (final track) is Venice Bitch's old wise sister. The rest of the tracks are produced by Rick Nowels, Jon Batiste, Drew Erickson, Father John Misty, and Jonathan White. No tracks under 5 minutes. The first half is all about New York, while the second half is about San Francisco and LA. Will be dropped digitally on the last day of the Grammy deadline to troll her competition, as she gets a 10.0 score from Pitchfork. The album will be submitted - and accepted - in the Jazz category. Lana will win AOTY and Best Jazz Vocal Album. Lana cites Miles Davis, Billie Holiday and John Coltrane as her biggest inspirations. Lead single is track 3 (MV shot in NY). Second single's MV is shot in California (San Francisco).
 

We’re talking about the dress like it’s 2015 again…LDRX is the second coming of Honeymoon confirmed!

she also backed the blue for a while so she's def a black and blue girly!
 

I‘m not sure if you're aware of this but as with every artist who has been in the game for at least 10 years and has released a multitude of material during that time, it’s natural that the fanbase is composed of different types of fans.
In fact, fans who joined very early on tend to not enjoy the more recent material as much as the old stuff.
 
Why? That is because artists often change over time and they tend to explore different directions. It’s perfectly fine to be a fan of the first minute and to stay a fan although you tend to not like or not be as excited about new material anymore. There are a lot of people who, for example joined during the Honeymoon or NFR eras, whereas those eras were the points where some others have started to lose interest.

Still, no one has the right to tell others that they should leave because they have a different opinion or are dissatisfied with Lana‘s current direction. A forum thrives and exists through discussion and exchange of opinions and thoughts. If anything, people who do not like this kind of exchange should think about whether a forum is the right place to talk about their fave artist if it only makes them mad.
An iPhone Is a Dangerous Thing for Lana and Chuck to Have - But They Have It

Oh btw the paradise songs were recorded at shangri-la studios so let's hope some of those memories were inspiring mother for ldr9/X

and then we wake up and realize she's only singing with nikki lane now 

love your attitude
i love that and i need this aesthetic combined to verses like ''hancock park, im resentful, the witch on the corner, the neighbour nobody wanted"

+ swimming in Mississippi 
+ visiting Jack's incarcerated pals at that Chicago prison

remember when she visited new york & got her portrait done?  
 
i wonder if her trip to portofino will have any influence… 

The snippet is giving cold autumn breeze, the kind of day where you realize that summer really is over and even though it's a beautiful day you feel that chill for the first time
 

 
 

yall are discussing a little too much PIANO and a little too little JACK DONOGHUE'S BIG TRASHY COCC. lets get on track for what this LDR9 album pre pre release thread is really about please.

How about if we manifest Art Deco type of songs, vocal performances or clothings for LDR9 since Rockefeller's architectual style is Art Deco 
 
 
You're so Art Deco
Out on the floor
Shining like gun metal
Cold and unsure

The snippet is so short, it’s hard to say what it’s actually going to sound like; sometimes snippets can be misleading. In any case, I’m so excited for new material even though what I truly want is an album full of tracks that sound like Cult Leader and French Restaurant 🤔

Instead of complaining about piano we should be celebrating the fact that Jack Antonoff was nowhere in sight

I’m manifesting fine China on this album reworked

this is her 10th album already and there's piano in all of them, I think it's time for everyone to get over this topic and move the fuck on the piano will never go away and it's clear as a day that she loves it and will keep including it omfg 
like let's save that energy for something else like manifesting an electric guitar moment  

I just know Charlie gets all his money from Lana and uses it for his ugly T-Shirt merch. 

Jack, Nokia and her dad better stay far away from the album and her jobless siblings and friends better not appear in any visuals, photoshoots or covers
