i'm late but i feel like the only one on here who would actually be very happy with a country album  country instrumentals with lana's lyricism would be golden....

Can we stop talking about country ? LDR9 is not country. Maybe her next little project but not LDR9  

let’s manifest together with our energy some leaks or new info about new album

I feel like she really wants a true yeehaw era so if she could just get it over with that'd be good

There's no way Interscope would let her make additional country albums because the reception to Yeehaw Lana from the fan base would be lukewarm at best

There's a handful of people who would love it, but I feel like most people would be like or

Personally I hate when fandoms control the outcome of something,

If I were an artist and my fans told me to keep making that sound - I’d do whatever I wanted & Then some to piss them off…

There are always new fans.

Unfortunately making records is about money.

It's not so much that fans would tell her - in fact, I'm pretty sure almost everyone would pretend they liked it, at least at first - but I think Interscope would. Record companies are very shrewd and I'm sure they'd think that it would alienate her fan base or something.

Haven't they made her change stuff on almost every album to date? So yeah.

Personally I wouldn't mind something like Hotel California (which is classified as like country rock, I think?). I feel like it'd be almost a country/UV hybrid album coming from her and that'd be rad - but if it were straight country, nty

With her last two albums not doing that well commercially, I would think that Interscope would be pressuring her to release a more mainstream sounding record. It doesn’t sound like she is moving too far away from the sound of the last 2 albums though. So maybe Interscope is really just letting her release whatever she wants at this point.

sadly i also agree with this, i know we're all begging for something different but from what she's already described i feel like it's going to be more of the same vibe

Idk, She had to make some changes due to label meddling early on, But for a good while now she’s been in control.

Now Ben & Ed will but in here and there,

But for her popularity & sales I’d say she could do whatever she wanted to an extent.

We’re not quite there at grunge/metal, But she’s working on it…

If Lana were to actually do a full country album it would be a serve and a half  People get scared when they hear the word country but I'm sure Lana would channel the classics rather than cheesy country pop and she'd give it her own unique spin the way she always does. I bet her country album would be a huge critical success.

lana, cover some velvet morning & riders on the storm pleeeaaaseee

 

Spoiler

i know riders on the storm isn’t really country but close enough

6. My Darlin

7. Goldenrod's Golden Hour

8. Sun Down

9. Sweet Stink

[Make me your Dream Life 87,494]

the lead single will have "fuck it i love brokeback (mountain)" vibes where she sings about supporting her gay cowboy couple friends 

[baddisease 17,868]

I want a disco-influenced record. Like MMITPML.

[Liz Taylor Blues 18,728]

It doesn’t really matter that her albums do less then peak. She’s a Rite of Passage artist, her catalogue gets millions of streams ( the hits and a lot of the non hit backlog). It doesn’t matter to the label that she makes quieter albums now. They still do well objectively, sell a lot of vinyls, and has an avid fanbase that streams her music constantly. She has made them so much fucking money. She’s in no danger of getting dropped. The label is fine to let her be bc 1) they know she’ll walk if they try to control her 2) all parties are happy with the status quo and they aren’t gonna risk fucking with that.

 

so at the end of the day Lana will release whatever she wants , and any suggestions by management or the label will probably about single choices and promotional things. Strictly the business side. Lana runs the music part eith an iron fist as she should. She has all the power and she knows it.
