Club classic Posted March 17, 2023 Posted March 17, 2023 I think VB is excellent to close the album with because it sounds familiar but still fresh it makes you crave more

Idk where the quote is from the LB insider but I believe he said that he doesn’t think it will ever see the light of day officially. Couple that w BZ saying another album is NOT coming quickly (when speaking about the “surprise”), and the fact that there are no previous era outtakes on this album, and I would say this will be more of a LYTAN/ Rock Candy Sweet situation where we will never get to hear it At this point in her career, especially after this album, I don’t see her pulling a NFR!/COCC/BB and tacking unreleased tracks onto an album ever again

Period Speak on it He’s a really malleable producer, I mean look at Lorde and Taylor Swift’s albums with him. He works around the artist’s sound, not the other way around. Lana brings the best out of him
Ice Cream Skies Posted March 17, 2023 Posted March 17, 2023 I'm kinda over trap Lana, tho. I want more rock stuff w/ Jack after this.

My20sBlues Posted March 17, 2023 Posted March 17, 2023 I think this album would have been better just produced by Jack Antonoff, orchestral arrangements are limited

Dystopian Posted March 17, 2023 Posted March 17, 2023 Jack doesn't seem to challenge Lana in the slightest and I'm sure she likes it that way, she's made some of her most raw and unconventional work with him. I think they bring out the best in each other. Born to Die and Ultraviolence feel more like their respective producer's sonic vision than they do Lana's.

State of Grace. Posted March 17, 2023 Posted March 17, 2023 17 minutes ago, stjosephprey4us said: The full album aside from Candy Necklace leaked in HQ. This is bc allegedly the insider who leaked it had the album since September, and previously a different song where Lana “screams” was in Candy Necklace’s place. Her label/ her team (I guess?) decided Candy Necklace would fit better so they scrapped the other track (which btw, why is no one asking the insider to leak that song ). So you can currently listen to the whole album, minus Candy Necklace, in HQ and untagged thanks! what a mess though Now I wanna hear that song too

The critics were blind & gone I’m of the few who doesn’t trash SP, but he was dead wrong on the acclaim it’d get and that’s what it’s being talked about. The singles out are acclaimed already so it’s unlikely it ends panned by critics like SP either way
ontherocks Posted March 17, 2023 Posted March 17, 2023 Jack discussions are tired. It's not like Lana will read any of them and think: oh yeah, they're right. The sooner y'all realise that she's not giving her fans what they want, but what she herself wants, the better.
stjosephprey4us Posted March 17, 2023 Posted March 17, 2023 @RideOrDie if you actually are Kinstugi, time to l word the track Candy Necklace replaced (or at least give us the title to thirst over)

It's not his fault if some trash critics compared the album to Melodrama and panned it as a result. Anyways this is the Ocean Blvd thread so this is a discussion for later I guess.
stjosephprey4us Posted March 17, 2023 Posted March 17, 2023 T-minus 48-ish hours until the week is over and no surprise came
NOW Posted March 17, 2023 Posted March 17, 2023 A lot of the mid reviews she's gotten came from the same critics writing the same things about her music even though she's shifted so much in the last decade. I wonder what they'll have to say now that she's moved her go-to topic of romance and relationships to the background while she brings in a whole bunch of topics she's never touched before to the forefront of this album along with a bunch of wacky experimental tracks...next week will be very interesting.
