I think you can enjoy the album best if you grasp the melancholic mood, for example, in the middle part. It's again a very melancholic album with a lot of heartbreak, even if some tracks do not necessarily indicate that. It can evoke very intense feelings if you get involved.

Yes in LQ but I think it still sounds fine, the quality isn’t bothersome for me

Which are your skips from the album?

I’d say Margaret but it’s kinda growing 

Peppers 

[evalionisameme 13,889]

This is easily her most unmelodic work- I need to listen to more but this is either going to be panned(likely not because reviewers are scared of crazed fans) or heavily praised for not following what is considered good practice.

Peppers, American & whore and taco truck don’t have standard melodies- they feature loud talking over samples, odd transitions and gaps where nothing is sung but you’d expect it to be.

Haven’t heard anything but the 3 singles. I can’t even map out what to expect from this album based on what everyone here thinks…..your opinions are everywhere.

Peppers does have a weaker melody (it's more like talking then singing) and Fingertips is just meandering. But I wouldn't say it's her most "unmelodic" album. Paris, Texas, Grandfather, Ocean Boulevard, Let the Light, Taco Truck and even Sweet have beautiful melodies. Blue Banisters had weaker melodies but still had good reviews.

Not having standard melody =/= unmelodic

The first time I listened to LTLI I didn't like it but now I can't get it out of my head and it makes me wanna fall in love so bad

 

[Poor Stacy 11,996]

I will say, 

 

The stretch from Judah through Fingertips is going to be 

a lot for a casual listener to sit through, especially in the TikTok era. We already have fans(?) on here complaining about it, so.:. Yeah. Lana definitely put the album on Hard Mode for that stretch of tracks, haha.

Cinnamon in your teeth – Candy Necklace (Cinnamon Girl)

I love to love you – Let The Light In (MTWBT)

 

Thanks! I haven’t listened to Candy Necklace yet!

Love fingertips and kintsugi. I’m gonna fight anyone that said anything bad about it

 

I will not bc i’m not immature and I know that everyone have its own taste. But i love how lana is exploring ways to compose songs and to explore melodies (or lack of them)

I respectfully disagree cause Taco Truck is probably the catchiest song on the album

The that's why they call me Lanita melody is stuck in my brain 24/7 

 

[Furor Poeticus 16,352]

I don't understand the word unmelodic at all, it definitely doesn't describe the songs on Ocean Blvd

[Ultraviolencez 2,609]

how would you all rate this pre-release era (is this crazier or better than the others)

100%. Taco Truck is an epic melody serve from A to Z.. And it's got like 5 different melodies going for it, all of them great.
