sksks not NME giving it an 80/100 

Also, these reviews naming NOTG, LL and CB as tracks that shouldn't have been included.... that's true tho

Ooh those are v good- I remember your Gucci Guilty and also the Jennifer's Body one, those were so good as well.

BB would make so much more noise if cocc never existed 

Judging by what ppl are saying, seems like Blue Banisters has more than enough noise on it 

I hope she covers this american classic

no, im streaming lossless. this is a mixing issue, someone fucked up

I'm blaming Jack, idc

Don't know if this review has already been posted but this was nice, and not just bc they gave it an 8.5/10 lmao it's actually quite well-written

i thought maybe BB, esp since the vid dropped yesterday..but yeah, sadly in my heart i know it'd always be arcadia

Well, I can't talk for everyone, but I'd rather have Arcadia than Blue Banisters tbh

However, ngl, I had a little bit of hope she would perform IYLDWM bc it seems like it’s the next single ¿ judging by it being added to some playlists 

Also, which track did y’all think she would perform? Like lmao Arcadia is legit the latest single, ofc she would perform it.

Here’s to hoping she serves actual live vocals and not what she did on Fallon

She looks so so good tho can’t wait for tomorrow

Does she really feel (...) that a song such as Dealer (...) is worthy of a chapter in her life story?

That’s the back cover on what version?

That review is…..something. 
 

there’s so many backhanded compliments and straight factually incorrect things sprinkled through. I was hoping the album was gonna be a success with critics but now it’s seeming like maybe it won’t be. 
 

At least they didn’t mention any of her controversies 

Well, they titled it premature evaluation, so I'm guessing they'll review it again, either tomorrow/on Friday

After reading this first review, I’m starting to believe my own prediction more. I would love to be wrong this and see Pitchfork come out of the woodwork w/ an 8+  We will see…

They'll definitely give it 7-point-something, yeah

I'm not the biggest fan of this low contrast filter she's been using tho

I even edited this BB MV, correcting brightness/contrast and color, and tried uploading it onto Vimeo but it was taking too long so I gave up 

This is all that trio's fault- and I'm talking abt NOTG/LL/CB, not the interlude 

Well, NME will come through with their 100/100, as per usual, so...

lol ok you're right that's kinda brutal– but they mention so much that anything that comes after NFR would read as disappointing so i guess i was taking that into account in how i read the criticism too.

Yeah, every single critic will namedrop NFR! for the rest of her career, they need to let it go already

they don't score, but if they did it'd prob ~8 (they like it a lot but there were def songs/things they didn't like)

To me it doesn't read as an 8/10.

They even wrote at the end, Blue Banisters may well be a disappointment, but in another sense it’s appropriate that the album fades into background music at times (...) something to play while refreshing the news and recharging your phone, waiting for a moment when normal becomes anything other than this.

It's probably a stupid question, but as someone who's not a native speaker I'd like to ask what she means when she sings about

  Reveal hidden contents

a man wanting to "take the pink off her toes". Is this about nail polish? About him ruining her playful and happy state of mind? Or is it about something completely different I don't understand?

i just want to know if the booklet is the same for every version of cd so i can justify whether or not to buy 4 cds 

Plsss, we're talking abt Lana, you actually need to thank God we got a proper booklet this time 

Plss she’s gonna sing Let Me Love You on Colbert and y’all know it
