Embach 42,295 Posted August 23 I'm probably the biggest Love + Fear stan out of the Diamonds fanbase lmao but I still think that Froot is her best album and Froot is my favorite Marina album as well (L+F is 2nd - even though I love it). 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Charlottexseax 7,942 Posted August 24 22 hours ago, vrtvie said: I know right! Anyway L+F has some cute moments. Her saying vague stuff like "that wasn't it" is kinda lame and banal. She should know how to distinguish good and bad lyricism in her work... I wonder if she's gonna write the album alone again. I wouldn’t say cute… it’s definitely an album that doesn’t cause hearing loss if heard under a certain threshold of volume! And it’s able to move the air in a way that produces sound. but yeah its kinda lame her response to it. My issue with Marina has always been how fake she is… every album cycle she’s like heyyy I’m SO GOOD! Feeling OVER THE MOON! This is my BEST WORK! and then it’s like no I wanted to kill myself that was so bad can we move on. like why aren’t you honest about your feelings? I feel like it also bleeds into her music. She hasn’t been honest in a while. And unfortunately she doesn’t do fake/artificial very well either 1 hour ago, rancidgirl said: one of the poems she's teased so far kinda goes into one person that seventeen is about so i wouldn't be a hater just yettttt okay I’m suddenly sat lmaooo 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vrtvie 2,264 Posted August 31 Quote Remember ‘Love + Fear’? We shall gently call her my ‘least loved’ record. She’s not a bad album, but she lacked my usual creative force. Written during a period of illness and my Saturn return (a notoriously sketchy chapter for most 29- 31 year olds), she was less of an album and more of a vehicle to get me back into the world again. She was liked, but not loved, which of course stung in the moment. But it taught me how important a connection with your internal creative compass is when you aren’t physically in tune. Around that time I had many recurring dreams about falling from huge cliffs into the sea, and I remember vowing to never read Twitter replies again. I never quite got back on Twitter again. But it turned out to be a helpful experience and healthy for the ego. What she said about L+F is true but is she still traumatised to remind herself how hurtful Twitter has been?? 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Charlottexseax 7,942 Posted August 31 Her whining about love and fear is so unnecessary lol. I’m sorry but when you choose the path of an artist the quality of your work is what you get judged by. If you didn’t want to work on your craft you could’ve been an accountant 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is my BEST WORK! i feel like most artists, if not all of them, are like that with most of the stuff they put out. yes, it's part of marketing strategies but it's also a reflection of the state of mind, i mean, no artist wants to put out stuff that they judge as inferior to previous material, even if they end up realizing it's not that great later down the line. it's just human behavior, really. and of course, you want it to sell on top of that, so you gotta present it greatly 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I do know and that's why I'm just asking, not in an offensive way. But coming back to this especially after saying the exact same thing some time ago seems kinda strange. It's as if she were to release her sixth album and suddenly said again how badly her sophomore one was treated by the critics (EH - waaay worse than L+F). Also, if she still feels kinda "not satisfied" with L+F I wouldn't say no to a reworked album or a more precise compilaton without such fillers like You but that's sadly not gonna happen (acoustic EP was a good step towards that tho). The point is, she just loves explaining herself how badly she did something, like with deeming TFJ a failure in the US and then saying how it's because Americans were obsessed with Katy Perry and Lady Gaga?? Is she really blaming the planet for her final product Love + Fear was? We've all seen the initial Aquamarina concept and it was much less bland. The only remains of this we have is Superstar MV. We're all over L+F, just give us a good album without neither "enjoy your life ", "there were riots in America just when things were getting better" nor "capitalism made us poor " and "fucked with the food chain, fucked with the farming too, and now food don't taste like it's meant to do" rhyming. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Formation 4,191 Posted September 4 "Part of me wishes those years had been different— I still feel the loss." Since the promotional tour of Froot, she has been so open with fans about her struggles and progress, and it is great to see how much grace she has for what she deems to be mistakes or setbacks. I appreciate that she is not afraid to discuss how previous albums were perceived while remaining optimistic about how her current work is shaping up. Excited for the poetry book tour and M6. 5 Quote ✨ God bless America—and all the beautiful people in it ✨ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
