in my head they both did their own version of “Nancy & Lee” on those nights at the Nightbird 

the way they are literally Sid & Nancy for our generation is almost insane

i think its time for us to stop treating insiders as deities and treat them for what they should be… our servants

i think BTD had more impact on the music industry while UV had more of a widespread cultural impact on fans and pop culture. BTD is iconic but when i think of trends & tumblr/the internet for example, UV had more influence.

why this turn into a leakfest thread  lets talk about ultraviolence turning 10 and take leak talk to the unreleased thread

That yellow picture... It's Neil footage isn't it? Lana never bothered to go beyond B&W or Sepia filters we know that! Whatever it is, looks interesting! And it does fit better with the "West Coast Home Made" video than the Pretty When You Cry snippet. Thanks 4 sharing.

 

 

About Ultraviolence... I'm quite shocked to look back and realize, for real, it's been 10 years! 10 years of "It's gonna be released in may" "Me & Dan are excited to present you Ultraviolence" "Down on the west coast they got a sayin' billboard"... because everything feels like yesterday??

 

To be fair, at first I had a hard time with Ultraviolence. I was still too in-love with the bombastic-cinematic-silkwrapped-hip-hop-orchestral-strings-vibes of Born To Die to let it go, even after Paradise (which nowadays, as much as I adore it, feels like an overkill (complimentary), but I'll leave that for another day). To get this hazy, dark, turbulent, noisy, lofi, rockish album without much resembling its precedent was... too overwhelming, I think? I was also just a teenager who listened to nothing but pop music ok?? but back then, we were also getting 10x new unreleaseds per week so it was... easy to ignore the album?? Pairing the music and the "lack" of visuals when compared to Born To Die, it was easy to brush it away. I remember keeping Fucked My Way Up To The Top, Brooklyn Baby, Old Money, Money Power & Glory and the title track.

 

Then, the leaks were drying up, Honeymoon was coming up and I remember this very awkward drought from my favorite artists, and decided to just get back into Ultraviolence. And then step by step I saw and felt the record just unravelling right in my ears, how atmospheric it is, the endless layers that were always present, just not in--your-face... and how beautiful it really is; the world building, the synesthesia of it all. I can assure you that opening up to Ultraviolence was also important for me to finally open up to endless worlds of music out there and meet many new genres and artists.
