not living legend being one of her most current states or whatever with that hipsters line. also violets is ruined by the mask lyric imo like how the blm ruins tb 

 

I don’t mind the lyric in Violets but the BLM lyric in tb does ruin it for me tbh

"Fuck you, Kevin" is 100% about her stage tour manager who quit last year and started selling a bunch of her merch on Lana Facebook groups for exorbitant amounts of money

I’m sorry this will offend people and I will get hate, I think this is a beautiful record but it is underwhelming and lacklustre in parts, the writing seems to lack flow on some songs. It’s definitely far from a Magnum Opus and I’d probably put it last below COCC in her discography. That doesn’t mean to say it’s bad I just don’t really feel the album as a whole and it’s a little boring quite frankly, apart from BBS and Arcadia and thunder, WW. If anyone thinks this is better then Norman or Ultraviolence I dunno what to say tbh, Honeymoon is way better even.  
 

So I’d say this is a 7.0 for me.  It’s just got this slowness to it that I find it hard to listen to as whole without losing interest, I just hope she does something different and has heavier production on the next record. I really wanted a Rock Candy Sweet fuck you with some trap and heavy beats record… and we got COCC 2.0 ?  

 

ok

I will STILL continue to challenge those thoughts on my other record out November 25th titled "Rock Turkey Sweet".

I'm reading every single spoiler, taking it all in

I'm not listening until the 22 (I'll try not to lol) but I wanna know 

Me too. I only heared Cherry Blossom and The Trio.

Cherry Blossom because we have the demo for ages.

Are we too early for album rankings?  

Spoiler

1. Violets for Roses
2. Wildflower Wildfire
3. Thunder
4. Dealer
5. Arcadia
6. Black Bathing Suit
7. If You Lie Down with Me
8. Blue Banisters
9. Living Legend

I still love the last ones, but if they had a little more elements in the production I'd like them even better. Great album. Oh, and The Trio? I don't know her.

 

[Surf Noir 188,649]

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

Spoiler

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.
