Furor Poeticus 16,328 Posted April 19, 2021 Btw I discovered Marina thanks to that weak-ass horror film called Moth Diaries.ย Numb plays at the very end, I was obsessed with this song. It turns out I had discovered Marina before I started loving Lana's music 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Charlottexseax 7,930 Posted April 19, 2021 1 hour ago, Life said: the whole concept I just find a bit messy - itโs just all over the place, compared to EH and FROOT where she had more of an idea of what age wanted. I guess thatโs a lot of first albums, but TFJ just feels thrown together and itโs not my fav. sonically it just feels a bit jumbled as well. I mean donโt get me wrong I get what youโre saying and it is true that itโs kind of all over the place but the songs are so iconic and have such a distinctive sound each one of themย Ita like every song has its own personality which is different from the others and tells a unique story but at the same time it all goes back to a central theme 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Glitter Boy 16,550 Posted April 19, 2021 Guess I'll just check this thread again until the album is already like 3 weeks of beingย released 'cause my head spins around of reading the same things page by page. Anyways, daily reminder for streaming MARINA's music. Any. 2 Quote "I'm wild, I'm free, no man can handle me" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think L+F was weakest in terms of concept, because it was just an album full of songs with the odd standout track - it was a little flat? but even then itโs not a bad album at allย as it still has some of her best tracks (and her worst), which is howย I feel about TFJ as well. ย EH and especially FROOT were stronger albums with FROOT being her best, as I think itโs the one thatโll stand the rest of time the best - EH is already starting to sound pretty dated as it is. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Charlottexseax 7,930 Posted April 20, 2021 12 hours ago, Bloody Valentine said: Also I wanna add that people comparing Electra Heart with her newest songs are making me very confused, because her last 2 albums and the new singles are all writtenย by herself. Comparing an album where she had many co-writers with albums where she had little to zero help doesn't make sense at all. You realize that L+F was actually all co written?ย Also itโs incredibly disingenuous to imply that L+F was bad because she didnโt have help, because we KNOW that Marina on her own can make amazing songs, TFJ, FROOT, all her early demos... like those are amazing 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thunder Revenant 20,936 Posted April 20, 2021 I'll never get why people say that TJF is"thrown together" or "incohesive". I think that it actually has a pretty consistent sonical soundscape and the lyricism/topics also tie together pretty well. Not everything has to be a concept album to be coherent. ย Ok,let's play the game: ย TJF: Mowgli's Road, Oh No!, Shampain ties with The Outsider EH: Teen Idle, Lies, Living Dead FROOT: I'm A Ruin, Froot, Better ThanThat L+F: Karma, Superstar, Baby (the fact this atrocious collab is in my top three says a lot about that album) 3 Quote Just do it.

californianfreak 3,484 Posted April 20, 2021 I love seeing that Better Than That is getting some love! She is one of my favourite songs on FROOT as well as being one of my favourite ever Marina songs! And every song on FROOT is flawless for me ย ย My holy trinity would be: Mowgli's Road Better Than That Froot (Honourable mentions: Blue, To Be Human, I Am Not A Robot) ย 2 Quote ย ย Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
