Blue Banisters - Pre-Pre-Release Thread

[Doll Harlow 12,367]

No hate to Mike Dean because I thought he did a good job...

but Wildflower Wildfire would have been so extra next level if it were produced by Rick Nowels.

I'm telling you guys the album cover is the Blue Banisters "single cover" it's time to accept it

Idk all of Lana’s albums have some form of art direction. I liked COCC’s fonts 

 

I’m sure Blue Banisters will have something good  but it depends on how Interscope is feeling. What if they forget to check up on Lana 

 

I swear Lana’s DIY frugality is partially a move to be free from label influence as much as possible.

The singles reopened a lot of pain and hurt and it culminated in an awful nightmare about my ex  

I‘m officially scared for my soul with this album.

My contribution to the cover discussion, could be as small as a meme:

Spoiler

both from reddit lol

I just know she was laughing her ass off when she submitted those covers for the single

And it looks as if she’s got large grey sores here and there. How did those pass muster? 

 

That had me thinking all kinds of stuff like 'Blue Banisters' was in relation to being beaten. Ribs being banisters and when they fade to green and grey like bruises do. Prob just been spending too much time looking into every little thing since these 3 were released, but after people commented on how the original pic made her look bruised and blue, this could just be her taking the piss out of us all for being so obsessive about every detail.

Now if she really wants to use a selfie as the album cover, can she use this one? She looks gorgeous (this is my first time ever trying to upload an image so I don’t know if I’ve done it correctly, I hope so)

Chemtrails and BB feel so fuzzy, they don't feel solid when it comes to well-crafted or planned eras.
I feel like these two will be Lana's floppest albums, starting with the fact that everyone seems to hate her now... No support except from us; not even the swifties help with that, and Taylor is an honorable Lana stan.

I like this interpretation but I dont think that it makes sense, because one second before she sings about how he takes away the pain. Coming back every may would be quite a threat then

I agree but I think she already used this for Chemtrails promo! inb4 she takes recycling to a new level
 

also there should be an “insert image from URL” button! Click that and copy + paste your Imgur link! If you’ve done it correctly, the link will have a “.jpeg” at the end!

I get BTD vibes from TB, the drama almost western saloon atmosphere done well, w a slightly more upbeat n romantic chorus. 
 

 

Literally just thinking THIS. I'm listening to BTD right now and reminiscing about those mega impactful opening lyrics:

 

"Feet don't fail me now, take me to the finish line"

"Blue jeans, white shirt, walked into the room you know you made my eyes burn"

 

Those openers were SO fucking iconic and THAT is the sort of thing that I've felt was missing from her more recent projects. The dramatic tension. And I sort of felt it again in the beginning of 'Text Book', both the vocal and the lyric delivery; but that's why I think the song is a sort of dig at all of us who want her to continue to deliver textbook Lana songs. She's proving she can still have that impact, even if it is sonically different. NGL that's EXACTLY what I want from her.

 whats wrong with her wanting to portray any of those things for a change? The reason you don't think she is being genuine is you don't think her friendships are that important to her :| if you were singing about your friends wouldn't you want people to take you seriously? Shouldnt we take her at face value? This thought process is something Ive noticed in myself, not meaning to call u out x

Yeah but dropping 10 random names per song is just weak songwriting and loses its charm really quickly

If it was the case, I’d be here for it. Ever since the RCS announcement and « cover » I thought it was a better cover than Chemtrails honestly. It’s the filters she used for the singles’ covers that are ugly. I’m still hoping for a professional shot for the real cover but if it’s not the case, I won’t mind that much. 

[SalvaWHORE 33,986]

I remake the "album cover" with this selfie since Lana seems to love it so much.

[FallingCherry 7,731]

The more I listen to the three new songs, the more I love them! They just get better with each listen... The way Lana sings « now my banisters are green and gray » in BB, or the « burn, burn burn » at the end of WW... How fragile and emotional she sounds in TB and the finesse of the production... Pure excellence 

I just wish the mixing was done better... I hope the tracks will be mixed again for the album, I hate how it sometimes feels like an element in the mix is too loud and it saturates... At first I even thought my earphones were broken :/ These three gems are way too excellent to be mixed so poorly

Exactly I just don't think we need that many names

You could play drinking game and drink every time she mentions a friend or family member and get smashed off three songs

We get it, she's friends with Jen and her sister's name is Chunk and she knows Joan and Courtney and Jack. And it's okay to sing about them, but they don't need to be name dropped all the time.

yall wanted lana to finally be in the driver's seat so bad after BTD, UV & HM and this is what you get, its all your fault
