    Who are the guys in the last pic?

    Dean Reid, Zach Dawes, Drew Erickson and Benji Lysaght (in the order of where they are in the pic).

    I think very beatles inspired, and the chorus is this, i'm sure these haven't got onto her like radiohead did;
     

     

    Holy crap, they do have a similar vibe! Definitely not a 'Creep' situation, though.


  3. Obsessed with the album lately. I agree with everyone saying the single choices were completely strange. I like 'NDA', but as a single is... a choice. 'Lost Cause' was definitely not single material in my opinion.


  4. It all comes down to the producer and whoever is playing the piano. Some producers are more skilled than others in terms of creating an interesting atmosphere with the piano. I don't mind Lana + piano ballads. It's kind of her thing, ever since "Video Games". But yeah, compare "Bel Air" or "Bartender" to "Chemtrails" or "Let Me Love You Like A Woman". A downgrade, truly. Still love the tracks, tho


  5. Hi guys, girls + non-binary pals. With the 10th anniversary of "Born to Die" approaching. The opportunity for the label to milk one of the best selling albums of the last time is imminent. Do you see it happening? A Re-edition with properly released and produced outtakes, another boxset? New vinyls? I'm hoping for new merchandising, for collectors. And maybe bring back Emile and Rick to overproduce an EP with some unreleased tracks. 

     

    These are the ones I hope she brings back:

     

    CD1

    -Standard album + 3 bonus tracks.

     

    CD 2

    -The Outtakes:

     

    01. Kinda Outta Luck
    02. You Can Be the Boss
    03. Driving in Cars With Boys
    04. Hollywood's Dead
    05. Serial Killer
    06. Damn You
    07. Last Girl On Earth
    08. French Restaurant

    09. On Our Way

    + more outtakes (?)

     

    DVD

    -All ''Born to Die" era music vids.

    mike dean did make beyoncé’s love drought and partition aka masterpieces. jack made... chemtrails production (which i love) but when it comes to blandness...

    Holy shit, didn't know that. Masterpieces, indeed.

     

    If that's the case - do y'all think there might be a bit of hip hop influences on the record? Mike Dean doing only country seems a bit odd to me.

    ive said it in a different tweet but imma put it here as well - its a sound effect rick used on several other songs off lfl like White Mustang etc, but its not the autotuned loon.

     

    OT

    this song is so beautiful and its just getting better with each listen... it feels like its only 2 mins long :crai: way too short

    Ikr? It sounds almost as if they wanted to emulate the autotuned loon. It's a very Lana sounding effect, at the end of the day.


  8. Guys, please tell me I'm not the only one hearing what it sounds like the auto-tuned loon sound effect from Emile Haynie in some parts of the song? I know he's not involved but it sounds very similar. I hear it at 1:47 and 2:18. Mostly always after the lyric "the right reasons".


  9. I dislike Jack's minimalistic approach and obssesion with piano ballads and I don't get his overrated status in the industry. However, I truly think Jack's production magnum opus to me is 'Venice Bitch'. I feel like the decision of making it a 9-minute song pushed him out of his 'typical four-chords pop song sound' comfort zone and had to improvise riffs, and come up with loops and changes, to give the song a new dimension. It's not a song with complex changes, they're subtle and cohesive.

     

    But I also believe he should stop with this one-man show thingy. It makes his songs sound same-ish. I get it, it's his vibe, but what made Papa Rick Nowels songs to sound different from one another (compare 'Salvatore' to 'Cola') is the fact that Rick had a whole team of musicians who knew how to play multiple instruments other than just piano, mellotron and guitar.
