Guns & Roses is excellent, it might actually be one of my favorites on Ultraviolence. That chorus hits every single time 

 

the bridge...

 

i can feel it coming in the air tonight...

7 years later and I am STILL not over this album and I don't think I'll ever be. It's like impossible just to play 1 song I need to hear the whole album anytime I listen. 

Cruel World is her best opener 

[wildflowerwildfire 6,860]

anyone know why spotify says uv was released january 1st 2014 when it was released june 13th? 

[Fingertips 72,051]

This album is a long distance relationship, to me. Months can go by, but the more time that passes the less you feel attached to that person in ways that you can move on from it in some form. But when you meet again, that fire is hotter than ever. Obsessed with this record again ~

 

Shades of Cool, Black Beauty, Money Power Glory, Brooklyn Baby, West Coast, Pretty When You Cry, Cruel World, Flipside, Ultraviolence, Old Money, Florida Kilos...banger after banger.

I've been obsessed with the Ultraviolence demo for the past week. Her voice and the soft instruments are so calming yet the song has such a dark, sad feeling. I prefer the final version ofc, but this one has its own beauty as well

So...It took 8 years for Burning Desire to be available world wide on Spotify... does that mean Is This Happiness will finally be on Spotify this year? Since it'll be 8 years (the fuck, I'm OLD) since the release of UV?  (probably not, but one can hope and dream, right?)

 

AND Flipside should obviously make a comeback. Not many remember this, me thinks; but it WAS on the album. On Spotify. For some week(s), at first.

I’m listening to the album and thought back to when I listened to it the first time, how shocked I was to hear the lyrics and just wondering what types of messed up things she’d been through. And I realized that I’m so used to the lyrics now that they don’t make me that uncomfortable anymore, or, well, at least not at the moment. I wonder if this is what Lana intended it to be, for the listener to be so immerged in the world she built up and told of that it becomes standard, neutral. Just this numbness of dark things that it doesn’t bother you anymore and you’re “okay” with it.

Or maybe I’m thinking too much into nothing.

Either way. It’s still an excellent album.

this album is a big fat ass f**k you to the haters in your life hell yeah lana you put you whole ass p*ssy cola in this album 

[13beachess 7,620]

I'm listening to Ultraviolence (the song) all the time now. And loving it! Haven't been into it like this since its release tbh

guns and roses is psychedelic excellence

[the ocean 67,601]

shades of cool

 

that’s it that’s the post

[GeminiLanaFan 49,394]

I usually don’t listen that much to UV in the winter because it depresses me too much, but I don’t know it’s because it’s the end of the pandemic or something, but this album slaps hard at the moment. Lana, bring back electric guitars on some project, please!

[Pico Ocean Boulevard 41,450]

Just random thoughts

Brooklyn Baby I need to appreciate this one again,  one of the best songs ever created I fucking love the guitar in it , her voice,  the production 1000/10

Go stream this masterpiece 

 

Also the way West Coast is still my all time favourite song ever after all these years  

 

Also the guitar in Florida Kilos  

 

Money Power Glory is still one of my fave songs ever & Sad Girl plss bitch the bridge is so fucking gorgeous

I could go on & on about every song bc this fucking album ...every song is gorgeous

FINALLY this perfect song getting its due...though i never thought it'd be on tiktok of all places lmao

[bluechemtrails 27,324]

I'm happy that songs like Sad Girl exist and I'm sad that Is This Happiness? is only available on iTunes.

[American Whore 51,677]

I don't think I've ever heard an album as good as this one. Not now, not in 2014, nor prior to 2014. Everything is so good about it. I've never heard anything truly like it either. Some things kinda come close but not really
