a reason why im literally obsessed with the album cover for this album is because she's got that far off gaze in her face where she's looking at the camera with a slight tilt to her head almost giving off a bit of an attitude, she looks almost pissed off, extremely tired of the bullshit and even a little smug.. but there's also a lot of sadness there too... she has this exact same look on the ultraviolence album cover too, except she's tilting her head in the opposite direction. i feel weird cus this is a random observation but i finally figured out why i love the BB album cover and its because she looks the same way she does on the UV cover , classic lana

Just for interest sake, what is going on in that back cover image? LDR and her friend at a party, with a cat of some kind, hovering over a trophy cup full of something? 

 

And why do we get the lyrics to only a few songs in the CD booklet, just like in NFR and COTCC? (This has always bugged me!) 


 

 

 

A.K.A. Fuckin' Mr. Brightside.

it's her and her sister chuck. it's a shot from the BB music video where the line "chucky's making birthday cake" is referenced and they're baking a cake. it's a mixing bowl not a trophy haha. the cat is lana's lil guy

Without exaggeration, it is my favorite album cover she has ever done. I never get more than the CD but this era I ordered every vinyl and CD. I love it so much.


I don’t really wanna die, I just want the pain to be over
