2017 & 2021 are only four years apart it's seriously not a huge deal

 

Just now, Thunder said:

No one has heard Dealer, and Thunder was improved

i wasn't saying anything to the contrary i just wanted to emphasize that both are also previously shelved outtakes

thank god thunder is improved cause if that demo also made it on here in that form...

no but not an 80 from NME that's for sure  

[brandon 13,317]

Also yeah at the end of the day the unreleased aren’t a huge deal and like idgaf BUT i do understand reviewers points

 

there are 6 songs from 4-8 years ago, and so including them is *a choice* - knowing that, at one point, lanz did not deem them worthy to be put on an album and now boom - they’re on her second album of the year 

 

i’m not saying it’s an issue in any way but i DO understand their view on that

[Jeanne Dielman 5,982]

The Lines of Best Fit's review is the best written one so far. Although when I finished the review I certainly expected a higher rating.

No, I think everyone just sees that the basis on which they review is fallible and has much more to do with image than the actual music.

no seriously LMAOOO 
like nfr is the perfect, safest album she could’ve crafted - of course it was critically acclaimed

 

i just feel like it’s not worth worrying or getting mad over critics - lanz has a pretty unique style/sound and not everyone’s gonna vibe with it, and that’s ok

But 2nd Best is Daddy’s Home? 3rd Lilith Czar’s. Wolf Alice isn’t on the list? I don’t get it. 

[Fingertips 72,034]

I guess I just don't understand what the point of adding "these are older songs" is while writing a review. That's just a cool fact, it doesn't contribute anything to me. If I was a casual listener of Lana and didn't follow her enough to care about leaked material, I would have never been able to pick out exactly which ones were older material, nor do I understand what it really matters for. Just review the music
