New 'Ultraviolence' Song Title: "Money, Power, and Glory"

[VegasBaby 895]

sounds scarface inspired. we all know how great that leaked track was

 

[GangstaBoy 3,930]

Yay! Another song about opulence!

 

I love how we are slowly puting the tracklist together, song by song

[Bae 565]

I want this album to make me cry one minute and then the next I wanna be singing about money and sex im so exciteedd. I thought hip-hop lana was gone

[C0neyIslandKing 2,206]

I'm excited that we definitely won't be getting an album full of 'Paradise' style songs, that sound was pretty but it gets dull after a while, I'm all for some variety!

[TrailerParkDarling 5,689]

HMMMMT@ the title but maybe it'll be OTTR-esque, time will tell

[Tyler 840]

BTD era beats coming back   I missed them so much.

WC is certainly not like Paradise lol

[BLOODSHOT 3,029]

Well just bc it has hip-hop beats doesn't mean they'll be the same as BTD

[C0neyIslandKing 2,206]

WC is certainly not like Paradise lol

I know, it have me hope, but it's not until hearing about a hip hop beats song AND the sound of WC that I stopped worrying about the album being too similar to the Paradise sound I guess?

well yeah, but i think dan auerbach will make a big difference on this album 

[ilovetati 15,297]

Ugh, I was really excited about a psychedelic rock-esque album. I'm pretty wary of hip-hop beats and a potential cluster-fuck of genres. Diversity in an album is great, but you still want it to maintain a coherent theme in sound, and WC and Dan as a producer made it seem like her sound had matured. 

 

However, the lyrics sound intriguing.

Don't get your hopes up on something you don't know yet. You'll end up getting really disappointed if it turns out different. Believe me, I know what I'm talking about...I've been through that many times already and I can assure you that it wasn't a good experience for me.

We know for sure that she worked a lot with Rick Nowels and Dan Heath on this album. They're basically responsible for the "dull" sound of Paradise, so there's a great chance that we'll get that sound on most of the tracks, again.

[Bae 565]

i hope it's similar to live or die 

[Arzi 1,981]

The song description sounds like something very different from West Coast which is nice, now we know the songs didn't get the same production treatment.

[tiffanydale 193]

nvm lol

[Bekim 2,576]

hip hop (not a fan but lana kills it)

[Sitar 22,207]

National Anthem? Live or Die?

 

Guys let's not go too far. I'm sure it'll still be dark. Especially considering she now has some perspective on the song topic, which she lacked in National Anthem (hence the heightened glamourrrrrr)

 

Like @@Rafael said: She's more "opulence is the end" nowadays than "buy me lotsa diamonds"

[ilovetati 15,297]

Another part of the interview says "The hip-hop beats of Born to Die, its strings and legendary violins are gone...Guitars, rock-and-roll and soft jazzy vibes - Ultraviolence is here." Are we sure of the context of that bit about "Money, Power, and Glory?" The first sentence could have been addressing the shift from hip-hop beats to a rock sound.

 

Edit: the passage says that MPG illustrates the "virage" which translate to "turn." I think it's saying that the song is an example of the shift from BTD's hip-hop beats, and the rhythmic music that American radios love, to the new rock sound.
