    I tried contacting them, but I can't find any e-mail. Their Twitter is automatic, it seems like nobody actually uses it either.

    I realised I never posted the photos of my repress, so here they are in different lights/angles. Unfiltered

    Mine arrived a few days ago! When I took it out of the sleeve, I thought it was the original coke bottle pressing (which I don't have) and got so excited, but it was just the sunlight. 
    It's like everyone else's; relatively opaque. I assume it's because it's quite thick (same as the UV repress)

    Ngl I hated Margaret for a bit but I’ve kinda come around to love it. I actually like seeing Lana songs go viral because it makes me enjoy songs more when I see others enjoying them. Like I didn’t care about The Other Woman until it went viral and now I love it

    It's really sad how we only got one music video from this album

    She’s really done a lot the last 12 months or so. I’m not sure why there are two camps (I’ve experienced it off of this board as well):
     
    1. Those who think Lana has been lazy and barely promoted this record.
     
    2. The camp who thinks she’s done a lot - like the most she’s done for promotion since probably pre-pandemic. 
     
    Honestly, the promotion got me super hyped in late 2022/eariy 2023. It pushed my fandom into overdrive. 2023 has been an incredible year for Lana and her fans. She’s not lazy at all. Maybe a bit shy and random, but not lazy. 
     
    The only criticism that I might be willing to give her is that she may not fully understand just how good this record is. (Creativity, diversity, production, lyrics, variety, etc.)
     
    I stand by my opinion that it’s her best work since NFR.

    i'd love another album trailer. it's like a table of contents for a book, like how a tracklist is for the album, but visual.

    yea. But then, it's het best video since the UV era.
     
    i reckon it sits within her top 5.
     
    i'd rather have one great video per album than 3 mediocre ones (looking at you, BB)

    I'm so glad that A&W is getting the praise it so deserves in the end of year lists so far. 
    It's a career-defining song. It's perfect in every way.

    Also it's kinda funny that men who've never seen a real vagina in their life think it's perfectly flat? HUH? I'm gay and I understand it...

    Love is being slept on by the fandom a lot. Honestly the only reason why it was kind of successful by the time it was released that it got really great promo and the Youtube algorithym made it recommend to many people (it's true, I downloaded Youtube on someone's phone and when I opened it, the first video it got recommended was Love and I blushed). Although the chart performance was kinda moderate. 
     
    But like, I've seen people saying that Love is boring but while it's not really a song with replay value, like it's not an upbeat song with beats and such but it has a cinematic experience, one of her most beautiful music videos and the message about love and the youth, crossing the cosmic witchy and retrofuturistuc hippie thematics... honestly when I heard it for the first time, I wasn't really amazed because I kinda found it modest but later I was blown away with the thematics and it's really a heartwarming song. The lazy tempo of the song reminds me of Cigarettes After Sex songs and it marks the transition between Honeymoon and Lust For Life perfectly, like from Swan Song (I don't really count DLMBM because it's a cover) to Love, listen to the lyrics and the sound, they kinda contradict but flow within eachother perfectly, it's like a character arc or something. Just some late night thoughts...💤

    tbh I hope this album - whatever it is - isn’t coming anytime soon because Ocean Blvd is soo not done having its moment

    Title track about to smash IKTR!!!!
     
    kinda crazy how this will end up being one of her most successful albums…

    Yeah I don’t think people realize how successful this album has been. I remember when UV and NFR started doing more daily streams everyone was quick to call it a flop but NFR and UV took years to build up to those numbers, Ocean Blvd has been so consistent since release, more than NFR was ~7 months after release.
     
    In the end, It’ll probably end up being 
    1. BTD
    2. NFR/UV (these two are neck and neck)
    3. NFR/UV 
    4. Ocean Blvd
