LDR7 / White Hot Forever - Pre-Pre-Release Thread - OUT SEPTEMBER 5TH, 2020

[Cacciatore 19,347]

I just can't get my head around Lana working with Jack on another album. Don't get me wrong, NFR was a good record. But from a production standpoint, it might as well be my least favorite of hers (I know Lust for Life exists, but from a production standpoint, although it's my least favorite album, to me it's superior to NFR). He might be a talented composer and musician, but from a recording perspective NFR is lackluster and kinda cheap to me.

 

I don't mean to stir the pot, but oh well.

 

I just don't want them to stick to the same sound. Lana always tries different sounds with each album, if she releases an album with the same sonority of NFR I'll be disappointed and not because I didn't like NFR (which I did ok) but... I want new things.

Oh I feel that very much. To me NFR is a good record, but that's it... lol. I definitely see Lana sticking to that dry/flat sound if Jack stays around and having yet again another album filled to the brim with California references. 

[Cacciatore 19,347]

Why doesn't Matty Healy just invites her to the studio like Jack did??????? Like c'mon daddy she's just waiting for your call wtf

[Groupie Lover 1,242]

I really didn't think we'd have another pre-release thread so soon. Mods never get a break around here 

 

change the website theme please...

also idc if lana stays with Jack Antonoff because lets remember they both created her most critically acclaimed album, she needs to stick with him and keep evolving

[sjatib 5,172]

Please no more references to California, no more songs about her being blue, no more songs about her gowns and her baby. Lana needs to go to the nearest Barnes & Nobles and grab some books and learn different words asap, improve that vocabulary sis! Thesaurus is free for gods sake...

 

What's exactly on your profile pic?

[paradisetropico 7,916]

honestly I love the references to California and blue and images

[hornymoon 5,771]

I hope this will be an album where she kinda taps into her sexuality like give us that white hot forever     it'd be cool for her to have a little fun with this record y'know with unapologetic lyrics and not being afraid to have alittle controversy! I will say I absolutely do not want Jack producing this, I know he has his fan boys on here but I find his producing stale and uninspired, I don't think him and lana make very interesting art together I know this is an unpopular opinion but from my perspective he doesn't seem to push her enough and seems to just go with whatever kinda like her relationship with chuck if that make sense? I'd love if she'd revisit working with Tim Larcombe since he makes very dramatic cinematic pieces or maybe even connect with Kevin Parker to make something off the wall and hazy af

Inb4 White Hot Forever is referring to how stars turn into supernova's then possibly a massive black hole. Queen of referencing the gays  SPACE DISCO. SOFT ROCK. Alexa, stream Gimme^3 !.mp3 by Abba

 

This post made me realize/remember I need Lana to cover Black Hole Sun

stopppppppp omg now ill never get this concept out of my head 

[BeautifulAnywhere 5,417]

I want her to go kinda pop but with a more sultry sound. Kinda like what @@hornymoon said but harder! Stargirl DCMA vibes. I want her to give us an RNB/ Pop album!! Uhhh itd do so well

Agreeee, I've legit been saying this since Lana released MAC... From a production standpoint Norman Fucking Rockwell is honestly my least favorite album, it sounds so flat an subdued, and also I don't know what happened or didn't happened during the production, or what got lost during the mixing, but this album it's just lacking... in general. Honestly, the recording process is a mess, it sounds really disjointed and cheaply recorded (vocals and instruments), sometimes like the instrumentals legit sound like they were recorded by some high school band or something, it's bad. Jack ain't it at all, sorry fanboys. He doesn't challenge Lana at all and it shows.

 

Now unto Kevin Parker... that's something I definitely can get behind, I haven't really been a fan of what he produced with other artists (except his work on Uptown Special and that one song with Kali Uchis) but his solo work his impeccable! Unlike Jack, his production style is extremely polished and well balanced, literally nothing to complain about! I want some Lana Impala!

C'mon down to Florida I've got something for ya...

[West Coast 45,793]

Cum on down to Florida I've got something for ya...

 

right?

[cherryblossoms 10,418]

Would definitely love for this album to have a “colder” tone to contrast with the warmer sound of NFR.

[bluefiona 8,050]

Oh I feel that very much. To me NFR is a good record, but that's it... lol. I definitely see Lana sticking to that dry/flat sound if Jack stays around and having yet again another album filled to the brim with California references.

Imagine if Dan Auerbach produced another Lana album? That's what I'm hoping for. Dan did a great job on UV.

I find NFR album quite beautiful, but I agree. A lot of tracks are too bare and flat. It's a great album to listen to at night time when you're just relaxing. Some strings would have been great on hope. HTD is a beautiful song but the music itself is off (and those damn jingle bells) A little more guitar and piano sound in the hook during California. A twitch here and there cold have helped. 

[bluefiona 8,050]

The word on the street is that Fiona is coming back next year. If her and Lana release around the same time...

All tea right here. It's Lana's melodies that make the album not Jack's subdued little instrumentals. Definitely her most useless producer yet. Hopefully she will not try to recapture NFR with him if it somehow wins a grammy, we deserve better.

Exactly it's not to say that I don't like NFR, or that I don't think it's a bad album, I just couldn't care less for Jack's production on this one. To me it just falls flat comparatively to all her others albums (even Lust for Life).

All tea right here. It's Lana's melodies that make the album not Jack's subdued little instrumentals. Definitely her most useless producer yet. Hopefully she will not try to recapture NFR with him if it somehow wins a grammy, we deserve better.

 

Even the songs that I absolutely love on this album there are things I hate about the production (cue to The greatest, Norman Fucking Rockwell and California). The piano on NFR sounds like it was recorded with the cheapest microphone ever it sounds so bad you guys and also the instrumentals on The greatest... like the entire instrumentals lack bass and when it sorta pop off after she sings "I guess I'm signing off after all" it sounds so distorted and cheap, and it's a shame because that's like the best song on the record for me and even there the production is super lackluster. Also California pretty much sounds like a demo.
