Ok? here come the ass kissers who cant handle an opinion different than o ma gawd i cant stop replaying shes a genius

Not caring about aesthetics ≠ greater artistic integrity. Stripped back production ≠ better music.
 
I mourned BTD-HM Lana a long time ago but I can’t help but miss the heavy reverb, the strings, the dreamy/psychedelic production. I love NFR and Chemtrails is good but it felt like Norman but worse. These new songs are great lyrically but I can’t help but feel like they deserve better production and better vocals.

I feel like, since LFL, every album release gives me a new appreciation for that album's predecessor. 
I've been thinking about why that is and I think maybe I'm slowly moving away from Lana but idk. 
I don't want to complain or be negative but I've listened many times now, and the new songs seem really lifeless to me with the exception of the lyrics. I find it impossible to absorb the emotion that many others are getting from them, and I think it's because I don't feel that the songs embody those emotions instrumentally. 
Or maybe it's just my current state of mind 

Hope is a dangerous thing is so boring and overrated... there I said it

i’m so sick of her bullshit she might as well keep her snoozefest album her music isn’t good enough anymore to constantly pull this kinda shit 

just came her after a week of trying to listening to the 3 new songs. very Meh.

She deleted the only Blue Banisters selphie that served...why Lana?!? She hates us

maybe you snapped
 
getting so annoyed with all the unprofessional shit like if you really hate promoting your stuff and being famous you could just shut up and release the album when it's done. if you only care about writing music then do just that. surprise releases are way better than just dropping random info and dates and getting people hyped and then annoyed when nothing happens 
 
i mean of course she gets people to talk like this as well when everyone is confused as f*ck but how good is that for the long run 
 
 

period, lets see them in 3 months when lmlylaw came out i was the only one who hated it, they all dragged me for days and look at em now everyone hates the song
 
thats how little u think of her?

wym i’ve BEEN hating on the poetry snoozefests since day 1 and called it just her reciting her shopping list    you and me the only honest members in this thread we love to see it 

ppl coming back to their senses and starting hating the poetry snoozefest why am i always ahead of my time

Nah. I don't habe to like everything Lana does for the sake of it
I don't think  so. I just feel like they had too many ideas, too much content and then instead of deciding for one concept, they just squeazed ALL OF IT  into this video.
 
No? It's not like the video wouldn't be overloaded and hectic. You may like it and think that's great but me not feelong otherwise about it is totally valid xoxo

We miss Auberbach

production and good mixing did 

YES i’ve been saying that since nfr. like take any of her productions pre-nfr and they are their own thing. you can listen to them without being bored or so. but 95% of the current instrumentals just sound so empty, repetitive and condensed when you take out the vocals. and that’s something i really hate cause lana always had this special type of genre blending production that no other current artist does, which i find sad af cause well that’s something we’ll probably won’t get to hear again 

Yup I really feel that too. By now, I'm getting excited when she's using her low-register vocals again

KSJSSKSKSK not me saying "girl can you read?" when I cant read myself 
 
LMFAOOOOO girlie dont get yourself in a twist LAWDDDDD its an online forum not a dick dont take it so hard! 

physically nauseous seeing the stans harass her dad online

Aaah #JusticeForNikoAndTOPANGA!!!  she has two cats! 
I think she put 'tex and mex' line just because it sounded nicely it was rhyming.  sorry not sorry, I am the cat lady.

While I definitely enjoyed these singles, I’m really hoping there’s some more melodically driven songs on this album. I miss the strong melodies & harmonies from BTD / UV.... I don’t necessarily need her to return to that subject matter, but I just hope every song isn’t written as one long poem.

100%.  I'm also tired of everything being in falsetto /head voice.  Missing her low voice of the early records.  When she would occasionally sing high on the early albums it had a big impact, because she used it sparingly.  Now everything is up in that range and there's less dynamics.

i'm just fed up with the ballads.
 
her faster-paced tracks (don't call me angel, doin' time, summertime sadness, high by the beach, blue jeans, summer bummer, national anthem) have always been her rarest. And it seems like BB will be her second album with a single one. Which, as a fan, is super annoying to me (regardless of how great these 1,000 ballads are).

That man didn't like anything she put out BTD-Honeymoon and just started to warm up to her during LFL and especially during NFR when critics finally started to praise her. What music critics are already saying about Lana at the time of her releases, is what Fantano repeats. She was shat on consistently by pretentious hipsters and he followed the same suit until LFL/NFR.
 
. I mean...who's really shitting on BTD-Honeymoon besides people who dont actively listen to her?  that was her golden age and what made her career with some of the best tracks she's ever put out yet. Sorry I'm on a bit of a rant, but I can't deal w his obvious bandwagoning in her case. 

It's because we are more vocal 
 
 
There are a lot of people in here that loves NFR and Jack. And this album is one of the favorites out of LB
 
 
I roast Jack and Norman in every chance that I can 

Wildflower Wildfire was my immediate favorite of the three. Blue Banisters had somewhat better lyrics, but it had to grow on me. I’m so shocked Text Book got so much love from people.  The BLM lyric makes me cringe so hard. I LOVE switch-ups in songs, which is why West Coast was truly an amazing experience the first time I heard it and still remains to me one of her best songs. But in Text Book? It sounds like a mess. I get offended every time someone compares it to West Coast or even claims it’s the best of the three... NOPE. Absolutely not. I don’t like the production. I just don’t like the song at all. I wish it was never released~ and that is TRULY my most unpopular opinion.
