I love both songs

I'm V curious to see how she deletes the whole double concept video and leaves us to speculate on it for years to come

[American Whore 51,313]

But she did the exact same with LFL

Hmm very strange. I hope she has extra enough to sell in the US lolol

[plastiscguy 63,437]

Tbh I can’t wait for the instrumentals to leak for this album. I can’t wait to listen to it and pick them apart ugh I’m RED TEA

 

I hope they do leak, instrumentals seems not to leak anymore lately... 

 

Inb4 The Greatest inst doesn't leak ala WTWWAW

Hey. To the ones saying NFR has already "topped UV and HM". I think the songs released aren't bad and bland as many expected, but they sound anyway quite experimental and embrionary in artistic terms. The production has nice elements to it, but isn't actually consistent. Her voice and her writing clearly aren't at her best. Go and relisten UV and HM, as I'm doing. It helps to not make a precipitate judgement on NFR based mostly on the drought that we have had gone through to get some new songs.

When I say that I think the new songs have topped UV and HM, I'm speaking subjectively and based on my perspective. It's nothing authoritative. These songs so far have a different atomosphere that really resonates with me more than the content on Ultraviolence and Honeymoon. You think that her songwriting isn't at her best, I think some of these songs are her most well written in years. I don't need to go back and listen to them again, because I've heard them enough times to form my own opinion about new music.

I think there's two types of Lana fans, ones that like the UV album and those who like BTD and LFL.  BTD and LTF are more catchy and light on a subject level.  UV and HM seem to be darker and following a theme.

[mrborn2lose 91]

FUCK these two new songs got me 

 

I just want to listen to them officially so Lana can take some more of my coins.

 

 

 

 

FIILY reminds me of Only Girl by Kali Uchis for some reason....

[Rico25 7,889]

The Greatest is orobably the best so far

I agree! I would say that I'm a part of the latter group. UV and HM have been two of my favorite albums for years. I just wish people would learn to not take their opinions so seriously and apply them to everyone. I really don't need to listen to Ultraviolence and Honeymoon any more times lol

[LanaFlowers 8,752]

I don't get the hate for LFL... is it just because the tone wasn't completely dark and depressing?

At first I was like wtf but "7 posts - Time Online: 7h" says it all

[Creyk 11,699]

I made a mini playlist with FIILY, The Greatest, Season of the Witch and Looking for america, on repeat.

It's so lovely

I didn't know post count and online time coincide with the validity of opinions.

And sometimes opinions change!!! Especially when something new and different from the same artist comes and it’s just as experimental as something like UV. UV changed Lana’s sound from what she started off sounding like on BTD, which isn’t bad. I’ve been in the “UV & HM” over all group and I can honestly say this album gives me the chills I felt when I first listened to UV & HM. There’s something special to it for me personally and I can tell it means a lot to Lana & Jack. It’s just such a cool project and we’re finally getting to listen in on it and it feels so special.

Thanks for this! This is exactly where I'm coming from.

Hey! I Wrote the post trying not to sound pedantic and clearly failed at all at that. When I talk about relistening the albums was just kind of thinking aloud, as it was the process I'm doing to try to judge on a more "objective" way - there's not objective ways and I know, just my attempt- the material we are getting last weeks, even if I've listened to them thousands of times also. Either we can or not share a common view on her music, sorry if I sounded imperative, that wasn't actually my intention.

[War In My Mind 2,999]

YOU GUYS!!!

NOW

US CLOWNS

WE KNOW

WHY HER MOTIF THIS ERA IS LIME GREEN

LIME GREEN VINYLS, TAPES, CDs, AND DRINK

[LanaFlowers 8,752]

It is a CRIME that FIILY is only 3 mins and 40 seconds long

 

I can’t stop listening to it it’s so fucking good. This album gonna ruin me

 

The fact that Venice Bitch's busted ass was somehow deemed deserving of 9+ minutes when FIILY & The Greatest exist...

It's totally okay! and I apologize if my post came across as rude or snarky in any way. I just think we all approach music in different ways and find a variety of things that resonate with us; whether that be lyricism, production, etc. I'm just glad that Lana has made records that speaks to different people.

[drowning mermaid 1,706]

damn.. fiily turned out to be much more fucked up than expected eh? pour me a beer

[amostori 780]

i can't stop listening to the greatest .....
