I’m no art connoisseur and idk who the artist is, but I saw this painting a while ago and I think BB and this are like on the same wavelength. Lana’s recent “a day in the life” lyricism style takes ordinary instances and makes them artful the same way this painter was able to take something I really don’t care for (modern cars, sorry :crossed:) and find and express the beauty in them. It also kinda ties into the NFR artwork., It would kinda slay if Lana contacted this artist and they worked on some visuals together for the album but I get that it’s already too late for that :/

 

edit: the artists name is Lindsey Kustusch! her stuff is beautiful, definitely look her up

I’ve had Violets For Roses stuck in my head all day. It’s such a beautifully confident song.

 

My favorite of the new songs.

Is it just me or BBS sounds like Born to Die meets COCC?

 

There are definitely great similarities to COCC. Both together would have made one terrific double album.

Rankings nobody asked for ❤

 

From favorite to least favorite:

 

  1. If You Lie Down With Me
  2. Dealer
  3. Black Bathing Suit
  4. Text Book
  5. Beautiful
  6. Thunder
  7. Wildflower Wildfire
  8. Sweet Carolina
  9. Arcadia
  10. Violets for Roses
  11. Blue Banisters
  12. The Trio
Spoiler

 

IYLDWM - Platinum tier

2-6: Gold tier

7, 8: Silver tier

Arcadia: Good tier

VfR: Ok tier

BB: "ehhhh" tier

Trio - It's an instrumental interlude; I don't dislike it but i'd rather listen to the other songs on here.

Sweet Carolina would move up a few spots if it weren't for that god-awful second verse. It really drags down an otherwise perfect song.

holy SHIT Sweet Carolina is so good, love Beautiful and really like Violets for Roses too- not so sure abt BBS and IYLDWM yet but they'll grow on me like Blue Banisters did

new Thunder is a classic too, Dealer being lowered in pitch makes me kinda sad but at least it's still great

Didn't a member here mention that Boz said on ATRL that the strings version is the final mix but apparently vinyl production was rushed and couldn't have been included on the physicals so it'll be the digital version of the track? Basically FIILY redux. The 3:54 strings version leaked way too soon - almost simultaneously with the piano-only version - for it to be fan-made. I may be wrong though.

 

So I'm just curious if no one else is concerned about who this "boz" is and why he's always leaking information that Lana prolly intends to keep confidential

I'm having a hard time ranking the songs because I'm having a hard time enjoying the album but:

 

Spoiler
  1. Arcadia
  2. Living Legend
  3. Thunder (very disappointed it's not the OG version)
  4. Nectar of the Gods
  5. Black Bathing Suit
  6. Dealer
  7. Textbook (would be higher, but that BLM line doesn't hit right...)
  8. Sweet Carolina
  9. Blue Banisters 
  10. If You Lie Down with Me
  11. Cherry Blossom
  12. Wildflower Wildfire
  13. Beautiful
  14. Violets for Roses
  15. The Trio

 

Is anyone else not feeling the album? I feel so left out, although I'm really happy everyone seems to love it!

For me at least, 100% yes, it's in my top 3! Some aspects of it take some contemplating, but after a few listens it's become one of my favorites

i feel this. i think the new songs are okay… if you lie down with me is my favorite of them all. the thunder rework is great imo but thats about all i have to say. i was so ready for this to be one of my fave albums of hers but its just not hitting for me.
