judging by her "where do we go from here ending" comment, i think she's going to reinvent history à la tarantino in once upon a time in Hollywood with sharon tate, which is much more tasteful

Lust for Life title track. The music video makes it more obvious.

13 Women = 13 Beaches

She's a genius, that is all.

also, all of this discussion is reminding me of when people thought she was going to recreate slyvia plath's suicide in a potential HIADTFAWLMTH-BIHI music video during the NFR pre-release

I love fishtail but the mixing sounds so cheap💀

No matter the headphones / speakers I use there's always this weird sound, as if the speakers were very old💀

[Dark Angel 202,575]

ALSO, lana insists that she wasn't aware of the story of the woman who jumped off the hollywood sign but i kinda feel like she did and she didn't want to admit that she knew about it/referenced it because at the time she was trying to steer away from her "dark" image because of all the criticism she got for it, i'm glad she's not afraid to be honest and vulnerable again

LFL era really had her straying away from all controversy lmao. She even denounced Cola and the "he hit me and it felt like a kiss" line in UV (but ended up singing it again a little while after).

I think she gets too much criticism for capturing the morbid curiosity for such things that we all have, even if some try to pretend they don't, and turning it into really impactful and beautiful art.

Paris texas sounds like something from her born to die era, melodically (is that a word?)

 

actually it even sounds a little bit like french restaurant i know they think that i have everything part

The way we wouldn't be shutting up about A&W rn if it was released with the rest of the album instead of on feb 14th

[Blue Ribbon 3,559]

honestly next era she should do the pre-release without any singles so we could lose our minds when it's released

I noticed that the speed/tempo fluctuations in Candy Necklace seem to be electronically created (rather than the band playing and slowing down while recording); I wonder if this aspect is what made that reviewer refer to it as "glitch pop"?

I think that was me cus i remember pitching the idea of her putting her head in the oven for the video and then someone else commented saying that it'll take an hour and a half to roast a turkey or sumn and became a "no context lanaboards" icon

i can't understand what was going through that reviewer's mind when they listened to candy necklace and thought "hmm, yep, this is a glitch-pop song!"

[13beachess 7,616]

getting chills to and tearing up to Fingertips atm 🥺

This is the first time in a long time, a song of Lana's literally making me cry. I don't know why it hit me so hard emotionally like that now, but here I am.💔  This album really is a journey.

If only her label let her do digital drops. I feel like she would've done that with this album if she was able to drop it the moment it was finished without vinyl production being a factor.

[American Whore 51,487]

the cd is kind of disappointing. on the image for the target version, they edited out the nipple from the cd art. and the "booklet" is a fold out poster

I'm obsessed with A&W! probably bcs I didn't listen to it until the album.  I am constantly replaying it. It's too addictive I do want to share the song with everyone I know and make them LISTEN TO THAT MASTERPIECE
