Paradise - Pre-Release Thread

[Sitar 22,172]

On my computer through headphones or i output my computer to my stereo and listen on my speakers. I'm not really sure what you're asking here.

 

I wasn't really asking your method, more like, "How can you stand to hear these songs when they're not available at their utmost quality?"

[Monicker 3,030]

You just answered your question, SitarFace ( )--they aren't available in higher quality. So...i tolerate it because what other choice do i have in hearing them? But if i have the option, and i can either listen to a CD or mp3s (and people often do some weird, stupid-ass shit to mp3s, which i would like to never have to deal with ever again) why would i choose the latter?

[Sitar 22,172]

Do you cringe? Are any songs only available in mp3 format yah faves?!

[Coney Island King 25,047]

I meant the painting not the digipack. Is that what you meant? Is the painting nowhere to be found on the 2CD and single disc versions?

 

It's on the back cover of those, however it's much more faded so the song titles on the back stand out, still looks nice though.

[Monicker 3,030]

Sure, a bunch. The audio quality of a file does not dictate my opinion of the song.

 

 

Are you mocking me, Sitar? Is that what this is? :umad:

If it ain't CD quality, Mo's not here for it.

 

Speaking of which: Monicker, how do you listen to the songs from her that have never even been on a CD?

 

Oh. Some people had uploaded a true lossless version 2-3 days after the leak

 

Edit: #4 on US itunes

Lindstrom

Yes, why wouldn't it be?

[Coney Island King 25,047]

LOL @ people on her Facebook saying to her "Lana my iTunes pre-order hasn't downloaded yet, why?"................as if she knows or cares :brit:

[PepsiCola 12]

Oh cuz usually it will say "This album is mastered for iTunes"

The inclusion of the DVD made me consider buying the box set until I remembered DVDs are only 480p and I can rip the videos in higher quality off YouTube. Someone convince me why I should still get it.

the digipak

[evilentity 13,303]

the digipak

What's so great about the digipak? When it comes to purchases, I'm more of a practical fan, not so much a collector. Because I'm fucking cheap.

I'll probably buy the box set eventually, if not just for the card prints. MORE THINGS FOR LANA TO SIGN, EVERYONE. :haha:

Entertainment Weekly has a review in this months mag!

 

Like her debut, Born To Die, the polarizing pop vamp's new EP contains some truly great moments ("Bel Air" and the Rick Rubin-produced "Ride" chief among them), but the lame lounge-singer numbers and femme-fatale fakery drag it down. Though she makes a few knowingly meta nods to her own rep ("Like a groupie incognito posing as a real singer/Life imitates art"), Paradise leans too hard on the same tired drowsy-Lolita poses. B- - Ray Rahman

 

Better than the C+ they gave Born To Die!

[SweetLikeCinnamon 343]

Here is my box -set <3 ( with french sticker )

 

Hi, does the box set actually play Lolita, Without You , and Lucky Ones? I heard some cds were missing them. Thaks!

Femme-fatale fakery?

 

I hate people.
