Idc if that’s sounds dramatic either I fell in love with Marina BECAUSE she was so weird and different, when she played the basic pop card with the L+F era it was soooo lame and disappointing for such a powerful artist. I'm probably the only person on Earth who actually enjoyed Love Fear era. It was fun for me, I don't care. It's mostly because it was such a terrible time in my personal life, so this album kind of...helped me get through this 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But I certainly remember that she tried following electronic path, so if anything she could've returned to Kurstin who was her safest bet when preparing Die Life. BTW What amazes me is that while it is canon in the fanbase to hate Love + Fear, for some reason everyone likes different songs from it, so it's not technically objective to hate on the record tbf and it just proves that the problem with the album is a lack of sound consistency. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He has produced some incredible records—Bat for Lashes in particular. Was he the first choice? He wasn’t. I actually worked for months with someone who I had worked with before and it wasn’t right. It was the realization that I wanted to make a live sounding record with real drummer, real guitarist that I could talk to and form a relationship with, which I hadn’t really had before. When you get into the pop world, a lot of it’s synthetic. Or the musicians come and you just don’t know them. Whereas with this, David had a fantastic network of people, so I was able to get Jason who drums for The Cure. And he produced Everything Everything and they played with me. It was a very different process. I wanted to be produced as a band, I made that clear from the start. I was like, how is PJ Harvey or Patti Smith produced? I was trying to find these females who were songwriters in their own right but didn’t necessarily sound ballad-laden. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Blue, Forget, I'm a Ruin, Better than That, Immortal, Savages, and all the other tracks are gag worthy. Such a cohesive and immaculate body of work. TFJ has some cute bops, both Electra Heart and L+F sound outdated af, and let's not even talk about about ADIAML... (Venus Fly Trap is still that bitch) thank you, i was gonna comment the same thing. Ironically i was thinking the other day which of her albums will stand the test of time 20 years from now. I think FROOT will do so the most, EH not as much; but the nostalgia will blanket over the dated production and writing of the time.

Yeah as time passes, this seems to be the general consensus: bad album lacking cohesion, good songs scattered throught. Last year I commneted how after giving LF a refreshed listen, the record is actually not bad, it just had the wrong producer and subgenre for it. The "late 2010s tropical edm-pop" production is not coherrent to the lyricism and concept that she was trying to push (the psychological spin on the album shouldve stayed in the drafts). This is further proven by many fans prefering the demos over the released songs. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I tried looking on dbree and earlier in the forum but only found upscales Demo 4 is the "Final" or at least some sources call it demo 4 some call it final. And i don't think we have OG files for them, the max quality I've seen is like 324kbps mp3 0 Quote young, wild, free but most of all fucking crazy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Embach 42,488 Posted January 20 Idk, why but I used to be a huge and obssessed fan of hers for years and years but like in 2022 I just lost interest, or like...I really want to be excited for her new album and I just can't. I feel like I've outgrown her music today but my heart will always be close to TFJ, Electra Heart and Froot. And kinda L+F, too since it played kinda a huge role in my life... I do have to confess now, perhaps with an embarrassed feeling, that L+F might have a bigger meaning to me than her other albums. I think I could write a whole thesis and analysis about this album but yeah...I'm kinda embarrassed to do that and I'm also kinda stuck in her first three eras 6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I feel the exact same, I became a fan during EH and went to see her live on the L+F tour (she was lovely!!) but I’m not that excited as I used to be in the past for this new era, after L+F it felt to me like she became more distant and it’s just not the same vibes anymore… nonetheless I’m still curious to see what she does next!! 4 Quote Dying by the hand of a foreign man, Happily Calling out my name in the summer rain, Ciao amore 13.04.2018 | 04.06.2024 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
