Lasso - Pre-Pre-Release Thread

[Make me your Dream Life 88,344]

every time I re-enter this thread it feels like it needs a seance or something when we never really got anything solid. and I don't know whether or not that's kinda sad or not. 

but what I do know's that I'm ready, been ready, to connect to some new perspectives from new music. ready to understand and listen to what kind of worlds are to be shared. 

and I'm dreaming of enjoying southern gothic in the winter, but I guess right now the only southern gothic's the void that's this thread

I'm game for a virtual seance at this point. Do we have any Wiccans or anyone who would take charge?

I’m liking the cold so I’ll just let whatever happens happen

She doesn’t seem excited about this album at all. I want to know what happened. 

Rumor has it that the first version of the album was rejected because it was too boring. Perhaps she lost motivation after that.

Too boring? Lana?  This is like rejecting cutlery from a kitchen. 

[Make me your Dream Life 88,344]

it's cus the overall scope of living's kinda just a bit strange so she doesn't know exactly how it'll be received. stripped down, doesn't want it to be half baked is what it was. 
the thing w her is, she should just follow her instinct, cus it's annoying, but people usually understand what she'll sing about later on even if it's not something that many people will get or resonate with, if that's the case for this one too this time around.

I played Henry, Come on to my bf and he said "when did Lana start making background music."

 

I actually liked the song. But it made me wonder if she was getting more yawns than excitement on Lasso from her label, and that's why she scrapped it.

 

With the stripped-back Chemtrails and BB kinda flopping compared to her other records, maybe they all just kinda went "okay, this ain't working, we need another AW or Tough on this thing, and less stripped back ballads. But then who knows.

We’ve heard so many different versions of what her label could have thought of Lasso already… 

Her management: she runs the show, she has full control.

Lana for an interview (was it the Vogue Italia? Can’t remember ): my label and I were very excited about what we had recorded. 
Some alleged insider reports: it was too boring, Interscope made her rework it. 
what is the truth?

Hot take: Henry should have been a standalone single last winter or this fall rather than part of a country album

I remember that she once said she wanted to make more  "easy listening" songs to reach a broader audience.  Maybe there were more covers like Take Me Home on there. Nice to listen, but not necessarily something that impresses her fan base or critics.

Well lustforlife/disgustedtodeath does not have 100% credibilty either

Ope. Did she forget the 3 projects you teased?

I’m sure Lana said in an interview people were really excited about the energy of the songs so that doesn’t really tie in with it being boring

Its probably because she's gonna do blue Banisters but the songs are good

[ChaoticLipster 24,671]

If she scrapped the whole thing and came back a year later with a bombastic trap hip hop infused record I wouldn’t complain.

Scraps lasso and does a pop album with Calvin Harris
