Honeymoon - Post-Release Discussion Thread + Poll

[subversive light 3,508]

I used to say that honeymoon was Lana's worst album (but still my 11th fav album), however, I've been noticing that I listen more to Honeymoon than any other album

 

I can't listen to HBTB and TLY anymore but Religion, Salvatore, MTWBT, 24, TBD, DLMBM and Swan Song are my favorites i can't stop listening to them

Honeymoon is such a mature work of art. Didn't expect this to happen, but lately I prefer HM over UV

[frankie 1,781]

i still prefer uv over hm but when people say hm is just slow and boring with nothing "exciting" im like...

HM will probably never get the respect it deserves but it's still my fav album of all time

Can't believe that it took me so long to fall in love with this masterpiece

[Flowerbomb 65,594]

What could be considered the target audience for HM? What type of a person would you recommend HM to be checked out first before anything else in Lana's discography?

Actually I think those who are more into rock/classical music. I think they would appreciate the structure and length more opposed to those who are into fast paced pop music (not saying they can't enjoy it) but definitely in terms of music production and structure, rock/classical fans.

I've always loved Honeymoon but lately I've been caught on admiring how fucking beautiful the production and overall aesthetic is. From the subdued percussion, breezy synths, sparse and scattered piano chords, to the angelic vocal layering and adrenaline-inducing arrangements on some tracks. It's both a pity and a blessing that the production takes the backseat... as gorgeous as it is, nothing compares to Lana's delicate vocals and I'm really glad the producers gave that the spotlight.

After LFL I fell in love with HM even more.

It's still not better than UV.

TBD is too much to handle

[Amadeus 11,334]

idc what anyone says about this song but tbd is the best song on hm. it scalped me the first time i listened to it and i'm still recovering from it.

I feel like BAR could have fit in with honeymoon

I know but on the pre release thread there must be at least 300 pages of pure literal shit and drama it's annoying too there's no in-between and if you have a serious post even if in the end it's not that serious it can't even be seen amongst all the other mess posts. Oh well whatever

 

How fun is it that we've had 2 LFL pre-release threads with the total of 800-or-so pages full of literal shit

Good old times

This video alone made the whole era worth it. I want them so deep inside me

[WaitForLife 5,238]

MTWBT is heavenly.

[sweetie 6,627]

I'm becoming convinced that Honeymoon is her de facto best album. Each of the songs (except Freak) have such a timeless and transcendental essence to them. She does so much with so little, and she does it profoundly.

 

It's kinda sad how quickly her fans overlook and write off the record. It takes a while to get into it, but it's so worth it.

LFL will never

[kitschesque 9,882]

All time favourite. Second half of the album is a masterpiece. Will never be forgotten.

Honestly, if I wasn't a crazy stan I'd be a little dissapointed with LFL. It just feels like such a downgrade compared to Honeymoon. I love both, but HM is just her best project by far and I doubt I'll ever be THAT bewitched again.
