[plastiscguy 63,437]

I doubt Banisters will be my favorite album, but it has some of her most BEAUTIFUL songs!  

 

Spoiler

Banisters, Beautiful, Violets, Thunder, Dealer, Legend, Blossom and Carolina are so beautifully stunning!

What or about who is about?

it's a song for chuck, who is scared of getting the "post-baby blues" (i assume meaning postpartum depression), lana just telling her how loved she is and that if she ever gets sad she can remember this song

IT'S SO FUCKING PRETTY OMG

 

omg this is beautiful 

i’m so excited to see the rest of the visuals for this album 

[Jaeden xx 7,138]

I wanna listen to the album so bad but I’m gonna wait until the 22nd unless I find a CD out when I’m shopping

Also did Interscope allow the cds to be put out or was it accidental

the original version we got was different i think, didn't it have like a weird synth sound in the middle of the second verse? idk maybe it was a "watermark" someone added to it when they posted it but you're right about the credits so idk what they're talking about lol

 

Spoiler

Was probably some random person playing something else. It sounded like it was played over a voice call. I highly doubt the synth was part of the song

I think one of the crazy ones emailed that company’s regional with a fake umg / do not reply to email. Clever, very clever.

for the lipsters who listened to the leaks where would you rank BB in her discography, sonically and songwriting wise? 

[Birdo 3]

Was able to get the album today, when I got there it was pulled from the floor but I reserved it earlier on. After I purchased it the manager noticed and made a scene but I left with it.

Songwriting? Top two. Sonically? 3 or 4

[YourGirl666 13,250]

To those who got the CD, are LL, CB, NOTG different from the 2013 versions? Is Arcadia the video version? Does Beautiful have strings?

[viktoria 3,176]

has it leaked in hq yet?

[lanabanana11 3,855]

Spoiler

Does black bathing suit have a really chaotic drum ending for anyone else or is that just me? It is very jarring compared to the rest of the production…

[Venice Peach 54,293]

Spoiler

BBS chorus is god tier but the production is hideous

 

[uvbabe 4,730]

Spoiler

This is probably her best vocal work ever 

 

[soaringHigh 378]

Remember when LFL leaked and people were speculating that the “Bitch” and “fucks” in cherry were intentionally added to the leak for those of us that listened early and that they were not going to be in the official release? 
 

This leak feels familiar in that sense and in the end we’re just going to get what we have atm so enjoy 

[Venice Peach 54,293]

Finally listened to Dealer and 

Spoiler

It's not as crazy as I thought but it's really good. I adore the verse's melody and Lana's screaming is iconic. It also has a lot of subtle details that I really love

My ears are so bad I can’t tell the difference between 128kbps and 320kps

Realistically speaking, most people can't tell the difference between the two. So stop obsessing y'all?
