I love the instrumental for Judas Smith interlude but could've done without the man screaming through it.

That Jon Batiste interlude is horrendous, delete it Elizabeth.

 

Is there any reason for these long ass interludes? The fact that her interludes are even longer than standard songs from nowadays  

[ScorpiosGroove]

is it just me or was the pitchfork review kinda backhanded ? 

 

anyway she deserved at least 8.5

no score but the acclaim

Fishtail is such a letdown... the chorus is abysmal and anticlimactic. It had such potential. 

The run from Fingertips to Let the Light in is soooo good  Definitely the heart of the album.

No, the JS one at least has nice music, the other one has no redeeming qualities

 

[Roberto]

I just know A&W and Peppers are kinda sisters. Belonged to Born To Die tho. 

 

[Abracadabra]

Not people preferring the Westboro Interlude over the Jon Batiste Interlude, I beg you to put down the crack pipe

 

[NOW]

Let the Light In shows she can still do light, romantic pop songs and knock it out of the ballpark, if she wanted to. It has the sentiment of a long lost 2010 demo.

It’s a moody grower like something from AKA. Just wait.

When are we gonna talk about the fact that “Grandfather” is the best song Lana’s ever released?

 

The melody is classic and instant 

 

The lyrics are gorgeous and breathtaking 

 

Her vocals are incredible and so powerful 

 

And the production is the most lush, expansive and full thing she’s ever done yet it still doesn’t sound too polished, I- 

 

I haven’t felt this way about a Lana song on first listen since Off To The Races snatched my ****** soul when I was 13
