y'all are so overdramatic though. That review HAS a point. For anyone not a hardcore Lana-stan that ready Lanalyzis threads on here, there will probably not really be a lot to get from the "story" she said she'd tell with BB.

And nothing's unprovessional about saying that if you dislike slow tracks, whispery vocals and reverb you may probably dislike LDR too cause .. well, that's a fact.

I like the album so I don't agree with their rating but y'all have to accept that people outside stan culture exist and that they are entitled to their opinion too.

 

you are literally always grumpy.

By the way.. remember that awkward moment when my fake instrumentals and “trampoline” lyrics were spreading on twitter.. 

lol 😆

This review is …horribly written????? At least dissect the songs and compare them to her other songs. To say “then, yeah, she’s not for you” is really unprofessional. At least articulate why you felt it deserved 3 stars, but not 2 or 4, etc.

 

HAHAHAHAHA is this a joke?????

 

come back to us when you write an album review about the actual album and pleASE have someone qualified to do it 

[Jeanne Dielman 5,829]

Except for the Stereogum "premature evaluation" and The Times UK review, I couldn't find another one except for this very positive review:

They vastly prefer BB to COCC.

Best tracks: Blue Banisters, Black Bathing Suit, If You Lie Down With Me, Thunder, Sweet Carolina

Skips: Interlude - The Trio, Wildflower Wildfire, Cherry Blossom

8.5/10

In a better timeline Lana is America's sweetheart 

And she competes with Taylor and Adele for album sales.

I just know that Alexis Mysogynytridis guy from The Flopardian is preparing his 3/5 stars rating for BB without even listening to a single song

The title track to this record must be one of her most loved tracks since Venice Bitch/Mariners, outside of the critics of course. I see nothing but positive comments from casuals about it on social media

“We’ll skip it but we’re not suggesting it’s taken off the album. We live for Del Rey’s impulsiveness.” make this person write every ldr review from now on

[Fingertips 72,114]

Nah, it's more like this:

Why do even the good reviews need to throw it all away with some stupid sentence at the end: "It’s so good that you can’t help wonder whether it would’ve had even more impact if Chemtrails never existed at all." Fuck off, Kevin.

Cannot believe I just saw someone call Wildflower Wildfire a skip with my own two eyes...but other than that, I loved this review

Ngl it kinda is one of my least favorites of the album. Some of her best lyrics, but the piano is quite possibly worse than the HIAB piano

I really don’t get the Chemtrails hate. Sure, it’s got some low points like Breaking Up Slowly. But does anyone really think she should have trashed the title track, White Dress, Tulsa Jesus Freak, or Yosemite? To me, those are some of her best songs period.

 

Lana has given us two amazing albums in one year.

ugh i only listened to BB twice before release and i’m so excited to continue listening at midnight OFFICIALLY…
