lola 6,642 Posted January 12, 2014 I'm kind of hoping she'll put the past behind her with this album and stop singing about boyfriends from ten years ago, maybe sing about Barrie, the backlash she received, fame, life in L.A., stuff like that. I mean it's a wonder how many songs she has gotten from singing about her experiences from 18 to like 25. I think I've said something like this before but whatever this thread is huge and idek when I said it. 2 Caesar said he’d fall in love with me if I was older.

neuf 197 Posted January 12, 2014 Also, a title like "Paradise Lost" seems like it closes out Paradise nicely and sets a tone. The old is gone and this is dark and violent. It's also kind of "beginner's pretentious" literature which, no offense, Lana would be into. Like Howl or I Sing the Body Electric from Leaves of Grass. She pulls from pretty accessible literary classics that people read in high school is what I mean be "beginner's prentention", I guess. Bad choice of words but there you go. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

neuf 197 Posted January 12, 2014 Yeah I guess you're right. I'm just holding onto plausibility with this one. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
QueenintheRedDress 4 Posted January 12, 2014 I love the majority of music Lana creates, and I know right now her music has become 'cinematic', but does anyone just want her to revert to her old bubble-pop jazzy songs ?? I'm dying for a record like that with Hundred Dollar Bill // Heavy Hitter .. such great songs. 2 baby needs a new fur. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NamiraWilhelm 5,049 Posted January 12, 2014 I guess I'm somewhat alone in thinking she'll keep up with the Christian mythology influence then :/ I guess she has since possibly changed her mind about it being 'more spiritual'... 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ConeyIslandQueen262 1,068 Posted January 12, 2014 Honestly, I'm still quite unsure what Ultraviolence will sound like. I think there will be less Beauty Queen/Gangster songs like there were on BTD. However, I can imagine that we will still get some religion related ones (Tropico seems to play an important role in her life, but on the other hand you can rarely find many more religious references in older songs, so maybe it was just the Paradise era) and also a lot of love songs for Barrie. No matter what I don't think the album is going to sound happier and a sadcore tone will reign. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
#glimmeringdarling 4,629 Posted January 12, 2014 When she had an idea of making a new album she said the lyrics would be more "stripped down" and spiritual too I believe but a name such as ULTRAVIOLENCE is so dark so I'm curious to hear her new stuff, I hope the title plays a big role with the theme. This is suspense she needs to give us a hint 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No matter what I don't think the album is going to sound happier and a sadcore tone will reign. I think she said she's more spiritual than religious. Like, she believes in god but I wouldn't say she's necessarily Christian or Catholic even though she may have been raised Catholic. I think the Adam & Eve story line were just something she used to tell her own story. 0 Caesar said he’d fall in love with me if I was older. I own all of Mexico and I got my own roller-coaster.

Rebel 3,177 Posted January 12, 2014 So I see she's pulling an ARTPOP with all of this. Is this her Jeff Koons? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

leaked_version 10,499 Posted January 12, 2014 I just don't know what to expect although I am pretty sure she hasn't changed her sound or the lyrical content that much. All I hope for is that Barrie is NOT on the album. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Libra 241 Posted January 12, 2014 Why are people so against Barrie being on the album? I think their voices mesh quite well together... but that's just my opinion. He would also get more exposure. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
