Calling it a small, pretty little record 

crap review, from a hardcore nfr fan who was expecting a sequel

[anwdelrey 9,270]

Tik Tok stans are so weird but I’ll forgive them because I probably wouldn’t have appreciated this album at 16-17. It’s def a mature album.

feeling bad for people who don't like Yosemite because this song is pure heaven

hope everyone is enjoying the record as much as i am! i'm curious to know - what do you think about the track listing and in what order do you listen to the tracks? do you like the original one or have you created a one for yourself? do you have songs that you think need to be listened side by side?

and since no one asked, here's mine:

  Hide contents

1. let me love you like a woman

2. chemtrails over the country club

3. tulsa jesus freak

4. wild at heart

5. not all who wander are lost

6. dark but just a game

7. breaking up slowly

8. white dress

9. yosemite

10. dance till we die

 

i like for free, but i have difficulties placing her covers to the tracklists so for now it works as the closer, but i tend to skip it tbh

even though i can see why lmlylaw wouldn't work very well as a single, i definitely think that it sounds great as the album opener, an intro to the title track. "i'm ready to leave LA" / "i'm on the run with you, my sweet love"

LMLYLAW or WAH should've been first as a sort of NFR recap. COCC and TJF can stay as 3/4. BUS 5th, Narwhal 6th, and DTWD as the end because the lyrics are optimistic and confident.

whew, this has been the only Lana record which im genuinely conflicted in; 

 

one one hand, i adore the lyrics and constant growth it reflected, along with the unexpected vocals and production shifts, keeping each song as a constant surprise to the listener and of course the toned down, raw n folky sound all throughout the project

but on the other hand, i cant ignore some things that blatantly ruin the experience for me: I generally hate shorter albums, so when this project ended, unlike her previous records, i was left wanting soooo much more, like atleast 3 more tracks (and the shorter track lengths didn't help in that regard oop). Also, I had this feeling of "is this it?" towards the end of the album. I wanted something more experimental here and there, just a bit, something more unique/ different to Nfr, as Lana re-invents herself so much with each era and stuff.

 

I know my expectations were maybe too high, but as an NFR stan, i was sad to see a lottttt of stripped folk ballads and just a couple hidden gems (in terms of production). its a crime that there weren't more songs like DBJAG or TJF, or a more folk rock type of song (even dealer would've been so unique and different ughh). that'd add so much sauce into an already sauced up project ^^ I really dont blame jack for the production (unlike some of yall dumbos), as the sound of the album was obvi Lana's choice, but yeah.. idk.

the entire project feels like NFR's younger sister, less polished but still following the footstep's of a great, great thing.

 

overall, i appreciated most tracks, with BUS and DTWD being growers and LMLYLAW being the only "eh" song

I must admit that in my 1st listen, I was so so furious and underwhelmed with the album, but i knew deep down that lana's music slowly grows on you, and once she does, she goes hard, and i was 10000% right, hehe.

 

My top 3 on COCC are:

1) TITLE TRACK

2) YOSEMITE

3) WAH

(i'm such a sucker for rick nowels production, oh my, so yosemite was a definite standout for me. cossing my fingers that she works with him in the next album!!)

They're just not ready for it.

[HunterSThompson 4,646]

I always find that there are little moments of each record that standout to me, whether its the way an instrument plays, a specific verse lyric, or the way she sings a certain word... so what are everyone's favorite moments on this record? I love the first 10 seconds of For Free, the little vape crackle in White Dress (I always just thought it was a random sound effect until someone identified it as her vape on here), the way she sings "just to rest my nerves, darling" in Tulsa Jesus Freak, the bridge of Dance Till We Die, her little humming sounds in White Dress, and the big cymbal crashes in Tulsa Jesus Freak when she sings "white hot forever"

I was always ready for Lana to do a country record, and after the brief tastes of it that we’ve gotten with Wild At Heart, Breaking Up Slowly, and Dance Till We Die (those probably being within my top favourites of the record) I’m really looking forward to the country cover album and LDR8 (which she kind of hinted would be country-esque). Chemtrails has me floored. I actually cannot process how amazing this record is - and it’s only going to get better with age! <3

The bridge in Yosemite. It's now in my top 5 Lana song moments.

[Brooklynbaby 2,724]

I really don’t know how to describe it but dark but just a game gives of such a Beatles vibe I really love it 

[Vertimus 9,555]

From what I have seen, most of the reviews are very positive. And there’s a great many of them. 

[Pico Ocean Boulevard 41,090]

Somehow I imagine that I'm visiting a country themed bar in the middle of the night where Lana is performing this whole album and I'm sitting there drinking Whiskey & smoking cigarettes and I stay there till morning and then I walk away into the sunrise

[rosesofsaigon 1,559]

That wind sound/synth or whatever tf that is in Yosemite reminds me of Million Dollar Man.
