Happy to announce that after weeks of trying, I've gaslit myself into loving Fishtail. 

 

Also I'm cbf going back through all the pages; what's everyone's take on rust dress? New album releasing Friday? Ok I'm on board, let's do this.

I like the track. But it's soooo daaamn quiet, I can barely hear it on my headphones. Thank god i'm not some studio head at interscope because heads would be flyin'

Just here to say, I'm glad they have removed the Judah Smith interlude on the new vinyl version coming out. That track has been blocked on Spotify since my first full listen to Ocean Blvd. Going from A&W into Candy Necklace is how I've become accustomed to this album playing out. FINALLY a vinyl version I can listen to beginning to end without skipping a track. That track knocked this album down a few notches for me tbh. Having a blocked track on a Lana album has been very disconcerting. Glad to put that trigger track behind me finally!!

Also tata vinyl is a winwin!!

Ps. I wonder if Judah Smith had something to do with the removal of the track given Lana's tata would be hanging out on the cover? Just wondering why it's been removed on the new version. I'm totally ok with its removal, just curious why.

cuz it's a bizarre cut that knocks the wind out of the mid section of the album and everyone hates it? 🤷🏻‍♂️

so i'm just gonna say it. tit covers, omitted tracks, bops being the last tracks of the album, candy necklace video A&W? what an era

Haven’t been keeping up w this thread but Neil posted a print of that Polaroid shit w/ the Rust Dress 2 Lana’s holding on the nipple cover, w the 🧐 emoji.
Then he posted a bunch of others that say Rust Dress, Rust Dress 2 and Rust Dress 3(?) on them. They all say 2014, except for the third that says 2015. 
What does this mean? Has it been debated here in the last hour? 

I think those are exposure times? First two shot in 9/2014 and the last one 6/2015. I don’t know how that works on film but on my digital camera exposure times generally look like 1/50 1/200 etc so I’m not sure if they are even exposure but Neil also wrote ISO on top so it makes sense that he’d also write exposure.

Peppers is already coming up on her spotify most popular lol its right behind Doin TIme now

As it should! It’s the track that channels BTD the most (with a mix of LFL).

This album has really grown on me, even songs like Fingertips and Fishtail that weren't my favorites before. 

 

I removed the Judah Smith interlude and now my mind is at ease. 

I’ve downloaded an instrumental version of it because it was so good but I just can’t with the pastor yelling. Now the album is perfect

i love the title track so much, it’s definitely the best song on the album for me and i’m so glad i waited until the album release to listen to it. i would really recommend anyone who feels like it to do it, it’s 100% worth it in terms of effect the first listen has on you

i did the same and i absolutely confirm it 100% worth of it, im so glad that i can take all songs as the one project while if i would listen to the singles i would have felt weird about it and this is why i tried not to listen to anything and it worked the bestest

it’s like a Honeymoon-style beat that’s what I’ve been saying this track needs 

[PARADIXO 32,925]

I wake up every morning with Fingertips stuck in my head  Right now I'm enchanted by these lines:

 

It wasn't my idea the cocktail of things that twist neurons inside
But without them, I'd die
They say there's irony in the music, it's a traaAagedy
I see nothing Greek in it
Give me a mausoleum in Rhode Island with Dad, Grandma, Grandpa and Dave
Who hung himself real high
In the National Park sky

It's a shame and I'm cryyying right now
To get to you, save you if I take my life
Find your astral body... put it into my arms

Taco Truck x VB is really the perfect album closer

the way kintsugi and sweet have grown on me...

[Pink Flamingo 17,137]

What makes this era feel dry to me is the fact that we haven't interacted with Lana that much

Fingertips fucks me up every time, it’s such a song, I can’t believe she wrote something like that

I also miss the live chat, it always provided interesting new insights

the kintsugi - fingertips - paris, texas run is one of the most devastating three track runs i’ve ever heard. absolutely stellar.
