idk if it's because i'm in a bad mood this morning but this album (at least, the new tracks) didn't do anything for me? besides black bathing suit, sweet carolina is cute but i don't feel really connected to it :tsk:

 

Spoiler

Same, I’m not really feeling it.  But I felt that way about honeymoon and it grew on me. Hopefully when we are in a better mood we can appreciate it more.

Re: the flow of the album / track order

Spoiler

i agree, the entire thing feels like a collection of songs instead of a solid body of work. Especially when the lyrical content and style changes from 2021 poetry Lana to 2013 Lana its kinda jarring

Man, the interlude really is out of place on this album, isn't she? like, don't get me wrong, i'm vibin hard with bbs, but I really expected it to follow the interlude sonically

Lana loves mentioning Apple products in the last tracks on her albums (hope and sweet carolina)

I'm not really feeling this. There's something about it that just doesn't work. I remember when she described Chemtrails as when she listened to it, she felt "work." That's how I feel about BB so far. On my first listen, it feels so heavy and overwhelming and idk. I don't think I like it, despite loving the released songs and unreleased.

I asked Asmodeus (the demon of lust) to make Miley Cyrus suffer. I am not happy with these new developments. After Miley rips off Lana's aesthetic, she bullies Lana into changing her release date. It is infuriating.

resident UV slut here. I don't know if you'll necessarily be IN LOVE with it - it's not a direct continuation of UV by any means. But to me, it's closer soundwise to UV than the last few albums have been. Particularly Dealer, BBS, IYLDWM

To me it feels similar, no record of hers is the same. But it definitely feels like a sister album to COCC in my opinion.  

 

Spoiler

Songs like Dealer and BBS wouldn't have fit on Chemtrails. Chemtrails was more acoustic guitar based and this is more piano driven.

I feel like the singles should've been:

  1. Thunder
  2. Wildflower Wildfire
  3. Blue Banisters
  4. Black Bathing Suit

Ugh I don't know, it has felt easier in other albums to find an obvious single choice but in this one I don't feel the same.
