Did you know that there's a tunnel under Ocean Blvd - Pre-Release Thread: OUT March 24th, 2023

[DNC 2,386]

not a single review over 80 in sight

[The Grants 13,562]

Spoiler

The extreme length of an interlude from Judah Smith - an American pastor - must be making a point, but it’s one at odds with listener enjoyment, while a spoken interlude from musician Jon Batiste cuts in not long after.

Spoiler

the way they just skipped CN…

Ok so if the reviews are out, the listening party is on Wednesday, and Albertans already have the album—fuck it I’m listening to the whole bitch.

The reviews highlighting Fingertips and Taco really get it 

[LifeOnMars 7,933]

This album is getting Blue Banisters level reviews so far. I wasn’t expecting that. 

[Furor Poeticus 16,406]

LOL the The Guardian reviewer wouldn’t get along with LanaBoards after calling Blue Banisters Lana’s best album 

[Tamagotchi 443]

I'm STARVING for some hq CN 

[Pink Flamingo 17,177]

NME gave COCK a 100

This album should get a higher score than bb and cock but those reviews are not that promising 💀

literally lol i'm happy they gave her more than 3 stars this time but what was that

[renaissance 8,365]

We need a few 90s to push up the meta score  I wish all reviewers used the same scale because 4/5 seems pretty good but then when you see it as 80/100 it makes it seem way worse lol

I’m surprised reviews are coming out this early? Has that happened for any other Lana album?

they just like lana playing safe i guess. what are the magazines that usually hand out 5/5s?

[hotshot2am 18,847]

Pastor interlude, less sonic cohesion and some controversial lines dragging the score down – it's about what I expected

They get it! Just hate that it is four stars lol.

Now I'm scared of Pitchfork, I don't think they'll give it a lower score than Blue Banisters, but...
