ULTRAVIOLENCE: ALBUM PREVIEW!

[Guest Dot]

Out of all these snippets, I'm mostly excited for the Old Money, Money Power Glory, and Florida Kilos . At first I was kinda bummed that Lana was moving away from the lux sound of BTD, but damn-- the guitar and underground band vibes I'm getting from UV sounds promising. 

 

Same. It's funny 'cause they were the songs I was most excited about when I read the titles.

They just made Black Beauty sound more lq and they removed the various fx-sound samples or what ever that thing in the background was (you can hear it at 0:34 in the demo it's some sort of guitar thing i think).

 

Well, we only heard the first verse, which was stripped down in the demo and I think she wouldn't want to change that, since most of the songs from UV seem to have stripped back verses. The chorus will definitely be more Dan A. tbh. I mean, why would he get credit for it, if it was still the same instrumental?

considering she's credited as ldr on every track except old money where she's lizzy grant, i wouldn't rule that out tbh.

 

ALSO anyone notice the absence of Edward Gallegos's name on the writing credits

:air:

 

Do we know the year that Old Money has been written? I suppose it has always been the "finalized" version of Methamphetamines.

Just like Coca Cola -> Television Heaven and Party Girl -> Us Against the World.

 

Old Money's got the best snippet, the snippets are really short and are only the verses so it's enough to get you wanting more without spoiling too much, listen to themmmmm.

 

Also it's just the same melody and it's not even /her/ melody.

 

Well...

 

"What's happening? Where did we go?

The Jersey Shore was long ago."

- Methamphetamines

 

"Where have you been?

Where did you go?

Those summer nights

Seem long ago"

- Old Money

 

I mean that clearly is more than just a slight resemblance. Also the way she describes the scene "Red racing cars / Sunset in vine / The kids were young and pretty..." is very close to the way she does in Methamphetamines, which was a demo acapella, after all.

[C0neyIslandKing 2,206]

I like that oldschool radio effect on her voice like in Hollywood's Dead, it's really interesting

Not listening to the original though, so it will be like a new Lana song when it comes out

 

(also, does anyone else get Cola teas from FMWTTP? It really reminds me of that song)

I'm sorry that this may be off topic but since english isn't my first language I just want to ask what does ''teas" mean? Sorry if I sound dumb, I just see it around a lot and have never understood it :s

[joaouriarte 1]

I'm so excited for Cruel World, Sad Girl, Pretty When You Cry, The Other Woman and Florida Kilos!

[Sitar 22,218]

I almost listened to the BB snippet to satisfy myself just a bit but discovered these snippets are down...God doesn't want me to spoil anything.

 

But bring on the leak though

It's not dumb, "teas" is just pop diva fan internet slang (well it has a lot more background than that, but for this purpose anyway)

 

In this context it means "it reminds me of". It can also mean gossiping or insulting ("spilling the tea")

AND DAMN; WHERE THE HELL IS THE LEAK; GODDAMIT!

[Kommando 3,264]

Pretty When You Cry sounds very Cat Power-like, interesting

So my favorites for now are Pretty When You Cry, IFMWUTTT, MPG, TOW

[whitman 1,286]

I promised to myself to not listen the snippets anymore but damn Old Money sounds heavenly.

[FFXSoul91 1,035]

To everyone saying that Black Beauty sounds more LQ... Perhaps it's just the fact that that these snippets are in shitty quality?

[GodBlessMe 2,141]

Does anybody have a dl for the snippets?!??

[Rem 2,392]

I don't think so, it's more of a production choice.

 

They purposely made it sound like that that's why I can't wait to hear the demos of this album.

[Creyk 11,717]

Maybe Lana is just like...fuck y'all leakers I'm gonna play with you and show you snippets of the old version of BB, even when the album is streamed on iTunes, and you'll only get the real version after the album came out and you have melted down a thousand times

 

 

 

[palerthanchu 0]

Old Money is my fav so far, but i need to hear album in full for better judgements

 

but sadly BTD >>>> Ultraviolence

 

i don't think she's gonna have more fan with this album

[Coney Island King 26,107]

She wont have new fans because you dont like snippets?

 

Yes that makes sense.

[Creyk 11,717]

I just put the Black Beauty snippet and the demo version next to each other in Audacity, and they are definitely different. The album version will be faster.

Maybe they sped up the verses so they can go all tempo-change on the chorus, aka WC and SoC

Update: Fuck My Way Up To The Top has greatly grown on me! It's my favourite from the snippets.

[SilverSprings 535]

I'm already obsessed with Pretty When You Cry (which I think is my current favourite along with Florida Kilos), Money Power Glory, Old Money, The Other Woman, Guns and Roses and Florida Kilos. Love the sexy sound of Sad Girl too, and I'll need to hear more of Cruel World to decide on that one, although this is seriously all sounding amazing!
