Ultraviolence - Pre-Release Thread

I can't help but think that Lana's music would be better if she didn't sing with her lower register so much...

I can't help but disagree. She has a really interesting timbre in her upper register and lower register. It's the mix of both that's so alluring to me.

I still think it's light brown rather than auburn/red. Am I the only one?

[Rafael 3,513]

ugly ugly ugly everthing Lana does is Beautiful don't forget that

UV is gonna be Rock/Independent-influenced, mixed with orchestral and cinematic sounds as well as some experimental hip-hop elements, I think.

I dont care about hair colour (even though blonde would slay   ). With the right haircare, she can rock every colour - but she MUST care.  So girl, you better give away these awful hair extensions.

Finally someone saying this

Like WTF you guys?

If you don't like her lower register how do you listen to most of her discography, like BTD or Lolita.

I like the way she uses her voice

[Sitar 22,214]

I love the growly strug of her voice, Lizzy revival ain't happenin despite my hopes and dreams

 

Plus Burning Desire is an uncontested moment

[FROGGO 2,806]

@@SitarHero and @@evilentity are right. I can appreciate all the facets of her vocal delivery and especially her prowess as a sort of... "actress" in that sense (see: OTTR), but at the same time, I feel the sole deep-voiced delivery doesn't allow for the variety of sounds and genres that I personally, would prefer her to explore. 

Let's get that alt-rock album!

Also country-twang is so cute:

Both hair colours look really good on her. I think I like the black more though

[parkin 85]

so u didnt see this. 

 

Are you sure that's her, she looks weird as fuck in that photo 

[ilovetati 15,299]

Nothing groundbreaking, but Rick Nowels confirmed his involvement with UV to BlogTalkRadio. 

[slang 1,532]

Yeah, it sounds forced and like she's struggling to keep her voice so low sometimes. She also struggles live because of this. I also can't imagine that being good for her voice in the long run.

So if she had more upper-register songs on Ultraviolence, her live would get better, given she had to sing more upper-register live? I'm also into the side of LDR that does alternate versions of the same song, so I often wonder what Summertime Sadness or Body Electric might sound like if sung by May Jailer. 

[Miguel3Zero 202]

Rick Knowels. . . YES!!!!!!!. . . very good news
