Poor Stacy 12,096 Posted December 17, 2024 11 minutes ago, honeymoon is alive said: for me the whole chemtrails album feels like a warm hug Same. I get the feeling a lot of fans don't listen to it front-to-back but every time I do I'm always taken aback at how tranquil, calming, and peaceful of a listen it is. It's a special album to me. Lots of travel, existentialism, longing... I get the feeling TRPWS is going to be in the same vein, honestly, and I'm okay with that (pls keep Tough AWAY). Honestly, I've been pretty shocked at how much dust Lana pays the Chemtrails album considering it seems to be the most fitting to where she is in her life currently (LMLYLAW, Wild at Heart, NAWWAL, etc). Long story short, I think Chemtrails was marred by the COVID era and the turbulence Lana was feeling in her life at the time. Question for the Culture and the vitriol she was met with couldn't actually be further from the sound and vibe of the album we received. 12 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Question for the Culture and the vitriol she was met with couldn't actually be further from the sound and vibe of the album we received. I'm glad someone considered this. Chemtrails is simple, short, but it works and is very round. I find it very interesting. It has this COVID-era seclusion feel, like if you were taking refuge on a ranch, you put it on at night and listen to it while you watch a fireplace crackle. Lana had been flirting with country for a while now, but she didn't feel ready to embrace the genre once and for all and sound like a caricature. So, I like Chemtrails, because, even though it is predominantly folk, it has this nod to the country in a safe way, without forcing it to make Lana have an identity that is not hers. So I was excited about Lasso because it felt like an extension of Chemtrails. Now, I don't know what he's really going to be. I only know one thing: saying that it will be bad because it resembles Chemtrails is untrue. 10 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The hate train that lana was going through really contrasted with the peaceful songs on the album and i think that it’s kinda sad most of the fandom didn’t get the vibes from it Personally I wouldn’t mind if TRPWS followed the same sound direction 6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And it has to do with the minimal production: on her earlier albums, of course there were songs I wasn’t connecting to lyrically, but the production and melodies made me love them. If you go acoustic guitar and piano ballads, if you don’t connect to the lyrics, well there’s nothing else to “fall back on” in a sense. anyways, let’s see what she has in store before bitching all over it 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It got me through some really tough shit. I remember living in a hotel at the time (had broken with my bf of 5 years), and the album dropped, and I was listening to it in bed and White Dress literally brought tears to my eyes. Is it her best album? No. Is it her shortest? Yet. Is it the most cohesive? Kinda! This is a quiet record, but the production is on-point, and all the songs go well together thematically and sonically. Also, Chemtrails (the single) is one of her best this decade, and Wild at Heart is MEGA UNDERRATED. My only issue is that it feels incomplete (For Free and Breaking Up Slowly are clearly filler tracks, and the album needed a few more great songs). 10 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jackritchiexo 345 Posted December 17, 2024 i really really want more than 1 music video i’d love at least 3 and hoping for more but i want good quality budget videos maybe not all of them but at least 2 but gathering from what we’re assuming this album to be i doubt any songs would fit that but then again cotcc is one of lanas best music videos and the song doesn't sound like it would get that treatment so my fingers are crossed 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Question for the Culture and the vitriol she was met with couldn't actually be further from the sound and vibe of the album we received. 100%, Lana was not very popular during that time with all the controversies she was getting herself in to.. but chemtrails is a beautifully executed record.. and it ranks so highly for me, but I prefer to listen to records front to back as opposed to having favourite tracks I pick out which is why my two favourite songs come from bb and lfl, but those records rank lower for me.. as there are some songs on those records which are indefinite skips.. (I’m talking to you VFR and LFL.. sorry) 4 Quote like a dream, you glide on the water and like a star, I shine from the shore Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thats why they call me Dita 10,611 Posted December 17, 2024 I just continue to dream and manifest that TRPWS will be sonically like what I believe the OG UV concept was.. UFB and dragon slayer and earthquakes and the likes.. 7 Quote like a dream, you glide on the water and like a star, I shine from the shore Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gabo 267 Posted December 17, 2024 I was recently listening to “Your Band Is All The Rage”, and found similarities to the “Henry” snippet she posted. Could she have been channeling those old May Jailer-era lyrics? 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rock Candy 2,098 Posted December 17, 2024 Finally I see a good response to Chemtrails I have lived up to this moment... I really look forward to the rebirth of the ideas touched upon on this album And I pray to Lana to release a warm and bright song about friendship, for some reason I miss it so much in her discography 7 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
