nnn inb4 this woman goes into hiding She's in Edmonton, so obv. its possible to get somewhere in Edmonton afterall. -
Dazed and Elle are both beautiful (though I prefer the lighting on Dazed ~) but Flaunt is that kind of camp magic that I never expected from Lana, and more importantly I never knew how much I needed it in my life until I saw it It totally messed me up with how genius it was. Flaunt > Dazed > Elle > Les Inrocks >> LFL = Paris Match

So in 51 hours and 43 minutes it will be Midnight, July 21st in New Zealand. Just to clarify; does iTunes or Spotify update first? Of the one that does, does it actually update at midnight? or a few hours before, after... etc. Any succinct information would be awesome, because the last 2-3 pages have totally confused what I thought I knew lol. -

Didn't some interview say that her team was hesitant about making GBA a single because of its slightly controversial tone or something? Hunties that have heard the snippet, wdu think? Single worthy? Video worthy? -

Man, ya'll got me hoping demos for LFL leak, because I would love to hear it w.o Max Martin's influences, and I honestly love like the spoken word rhythm at the beginning of each verse and the choreo... kind of wanted more of it in the song... also kind of hope she revisits that 60s Shangri-Las vibe eventually -

Already girls, question. I always just assume good things don't happen to me, because I'm an awful person So I've never actually tried to get a record early. How do you guys go about trying? Do you just call? Go in person and beg? Give me tips. -

It is. Unfortunately, its usually wasted on the music tech student's "Avant garde" creations that are actually super reductive Every once and a while we get a guess electronic artist that uses them right and it blows our minds. We had one of the founders of ICE (the international contemporary ensemble) come with a desk and he used every object on the desk (so like, paper, pencil, mouse, soda can, etc.) as an instrument and live created a piece and used ambient sounds to accentuate it and whew lord Meanwhile most of the tech students just make fidgety, glitchy tracks that are not even intellectual enough to be excused But, On Topic: Idk how much longer I can take not hearing the snippets -

If I had this option I would I'm a music major in college rn and I know a lot of music tech people with access to our super expensive surround sound hall, but I'd have to give a lot of favors for that and none of them are attractive -

Why stop at cigarettes. Lana would want you to get high and do some Heroin or Yayo -

I'm probably using an edit of either the back cover or the image with her leaning on the truck. Her smile seems so weird and off to me on the cover, and I've seen her smile plenty of times, so its not that. I also think the truck in the background is kind of ugly, but I still love Lana being in front of aesthetically appropriate vehicles for each record. Imo she should've been in front of a hippie fan, or her and Chuck (and Neil ) could've rented or got an old Volkswagen-Van and decorated the outside themselves. THAT would've been aesthetically pleasing, and relevant to the record sonically To me, there are elements of peace, love, and change throughout most of this era, but they didn't fully commit to it with the album cover photoshoot of all things -
Is this all in the snippet? Like, is it fuzzy or distorted? (I havent listened yet ) Whether it is or not, nice find sis We already knew this track was about running from the paparazzi (and Lana's obsession with beaches/peaches but thanks for adding context

What are these snippets from? Upcoming album? Shelved records from said now delayed upcoming album? Just unreleased songs from the past few years?

Finally got a profile pic... even if its shitty...after lurking and being here for over 3 years When I find the Lana image that speaks to my soul, I'll commit, but this lq mess will do for now. OT: Still haven't listened to the HQ snippets of 13 Beaches, Cherry, White Mustang, In My Feelings, GBA, WTWWAW, BPBP, TNC, Heroin, or Get Free. (I listened to 1/2 of the Instagram snippets of Change) I'm ready to have 8 songs be entirely new when I hear them, bless. -

The pictures we have are beautiful, and they do have a theme to them... I just wanted more of a balance of Lana + scenery, more pictures in general, lyrics (I was expecting the whole - 1-2 lines from each song like on Honeymoon/Ultraviolence), and not messed up lyrics for Love (come on ) Like, we've got two pictures of Jack Colker's Union 76, which I've seen before in person, so its not like its new or original. You can literally find that image almost exactly on pinterest Maybe if we had a video clip of the BTS or words about why they chose the locations they did, it would feel more special. It does seem like it holds meaning to Lana & Chuck though, so maybe we aren't meant to get it. Still, as a fan, I wish we had a better album booklet. It's just simple production value stuff that she doesn't do that keeps them from being great. Honeymoon remains my favorite booklet; it was a beautiful mix of color, aesthetics and scenery and shots of Lana that really conveyed the atmosphere of the record. This one feels a bit more disjointed. I've already preordered the CD (Signed ) and I would regardless of if there even was a booklet, I just feel like for an artist that has such an aesthetic side to her music, her album booklets could be better. This era had amazing photoshoots for magazines and interviews and what not, but the Album cover photoshoot just doesn't do it for me tbh. For me, it's not even like Chuck isn't good, or doesn't take good pictures, it just seems like she doesn't pick the right pictures, but I mean its all subjective so. -

Well, I'm glad I didn't buy the Box Set now, the booklet's the same right? On happier news, "Honest, Able, Beautiful, Stable" sounds like amazing life goals summarized in 4 words, queen I thought people thought this song was about climate or political change for some reason.... Also, since this was the "last" song written for the record, does that mean its even newer than Coachella? Nnn -

I wish no snippets had come out, so I didn't have to endure 5 more days of torture I expected them to leak or be found, but not the day after we got Summer Bummer + Groupie Love
