why people care so much about references like pitchfork or fantano?
>guys!!!! look how much I don't care!!!!
i was doing a legit question, cunt
how did she get away with a curse word in the title? How do media outlets describe this? Do they have to censor "fucking" on all the CDs at the store?
It ultimately means nothing. Just ask yourself, do you enjoy it?
well deserved, it's clearly aoty
>how did she get away with a curse word in the title?
It's okay when women do it because women arent allowed to face consequences.
For me it's Honeymoon
This is like Scorsese's Oscar for the Departed. One of the most influential artists of the decade for sure.
What the fuck is that supposed to mean? What should the fucking consequences be for saying fuck in the fucking title? What about fucking Silver Mt. Zion's Fuck Off Get Free We Pour Light On Everything? I bought that at a music store and its spine wasn't censored.
she's been the best pop musician of the decade since she dropped Born to Die, that would have cemented her if she never released another song. I can understand preferring any of her albums, even this one, but it is in no way significantly better than earlier ones.
they say Norman effing Rockwell

This is the score A Seat at the Table should've gotten but it was too black for them
>Do they have to censor "fucking" on all the CDs at the store?
You see initials on the cover, right? Daft cunt.
how did this get the same score as Ys
>One of the most influential artists of the decade for sure.
literally how? She's not doing anything Kate Bush or Peter Gabriel did first and better. Unless you mean taking what they did and boiling it down into a Urban Outfitters mediocrity.
>she's been the best pop musician of the decade since she dropped Born to Die, that would have cemented her if she never released another song
do you mean that if she only released BTD, she would've been the best?
I prefer George Rockwell.
no my bad I meant that everything that makes her great already existed in that album. She expanded out in many different ways that were interesting but the Video Games, Born to Die, Blue Jeans trilogy are kind of the kernel of why people love her so much. She just did that in different ways after.
I love all her music honestly.
I tried listening to it today. I had to quit. It's fucking awful. I'm sure it'll be compared to Beatles because she's a stronk, independent woman in 2019.
>the Video Games, Born to Die, Blue Jeans trilogy are kind of the kernel of why people love her so much
the best thing for her legacy would've been dying 4 years ago
Can't quite agree because I think Heroin is a top 5 song for her, i generally kind of agree she's just gone downhill, but again i love all her stuff.
listened to a couple songs off this, they're okay
only other pop artists i can listen to are lorde and carly rae jepsen's newer stuff
I like it but come to think of it, is not better than any of Julia Holter's last 4 albums or Joanna Newsom's HOOM
Because it triggers people on Yea Forums
Le fantano drone
... what?
different kinds of music man, Holter and Newsom are pretty experimental, Lana is just making pop music that is a bit different.
There's been 10/10 albums by women nearly every year this decade. The real question is, why can't white men make any masterpieces anymore?
The vinyl is censored at the store.
What disgusts me is that it got more than this.
Peter Gabriel and Kate Bush sound nothing like Lana lmfao. I think her music is meh but she's definitely influential. You must be over 40 because every other young girl is obsessed with her and every other new female artist has the same indie sad girl thing going on.

One of the best L.A. albums in recent memory. I live in Long Beach and i feel like this is a gift
typical pitchfork. hope they all die a horrible death.
this
They're all fart sniffing pay-to-play soulless husks that sit around retweeting each other's articles all day on twitter
i watch fantano from time to time, didn't know he reviewed any of these though, sorry to disappoint you
All her other albums were trashed by critics but that doesn't fit your indoctrinated /pol/ worldview i guess
>why can't white men make any masterpieces anymore
Didn't a white man write most of this album.
>All her other albums were trashed by critics
But those albums were pre-Trump. "Journalists" now see everything through a Trump prism.
Literally who
The white man is not the singer or the lyricist.
>implying that singing holds any true artistic merit
>implying she REALLY wrote anything under her name
You've heard of this little thing called the music industry, right?
It's not a 9.4 but it is a good album so I don't feel bad about it.
There are many worse cases of Pitchfork being off (e.g. 8.5 for Cardi B).
>implying that singing holds any true artistic merit
This is something that's only said by people that can't sing themselves and have no idea how much more intensive it is to learn how compared to the piano or guitar.
For non-instrumental music, it's the quality of the singer and the lyrics that turn a good song into a great song.
>implying she REALLY wrote anything under her name
Men are so scared that a woman might be better than them lmfao

Couldn't give less of a shit. The only three times I've read pitchfork in my life is when they ranked their top 50 britpop, dreampop and shoegaze albums.
who is that dude in the cover?
This album really is 10/10 it's so atmospheric
>solo female artist
When you have to specify like that, it’s meaningless.
She’s a whore who sold herself to Harvey Weinstein
Morrissey
I just don't understand this. The album is her best, I can agree on that, but it's a 7.9. There's hardly any risk in this album, and it's largely rehashed subject matter and its leading single is a lifeless, unimaginative cover. This all seems like a contrived effort to backpeddle on some pretty fair reviews, and cater to stan consumers before p4k retreats behind its paywall.
Duke Nicholson
>paywall
this is inevitably going to happen isn't it?
lol pitchfork is a pop music review site.
That's meaningless cause Pitchfork isn't the same site that were even 3 years ago let alone 9 years ago. They've gone so far down the path of corporate poptimism and feminism that most of their reviews read like satire. If they'd been operating under this mode years ago they surely would have given an even higher score to another female pop album, probably something by Beyonce.

TOOL's album is much more deserving of "masterpiece" status than Lana's, although I wouldn't ascribe that term to either of them.
lana is never discussed on this board and now all of a sudden this album, which sounds just like her past five, is unanimously praised by Yea Forums? why? and why won't anyone question this ridiculous rating??
faggot
faggot AND incel
Who do you think gets to decide whats a masterpiece? The Masses or the Minority?
They both have their place. Remember, certain people or establishments usually rate music to their own taste and the taste of their following.
YOU DECIDE WHAT YOU THINK OF THE ALBUM. BE MORE BASED YOU FUCKING 20 SOMETHING, SAD, ANGRY LITTLE KEKS!
8.5/10
Wait is Lana not getting panned anymore??
>it just has good vibes guys! it's my new jam!
>now where's that fuckin' bong ayyyy
This album is more singer-songwriter and cohesive than her past ones so it's easier for real music fans to take seriously. I like Ultraviolence more but I guess it was too melodramatic for a lot of people.
Its actually decent for a Lana album but not deserving of a 9.4 when pitted against others
I think Pitchfork is losing relevance.
acquire intercourse
i can see the incels are still seething
she's not a solo artist.. she writes the lyrics, not the music.
Holter's HYIMW is a pop album and blows this out of the water. Newsom isn't experimental either, it's just that her music is really technical
>higher score than the idler wheel
Dropped desu
For me too, user.
>LDR is like Kate Bush
In a competitive field, this is today's most retarded post.
Do you have any other recs for "L.A. albums"? I like Malibu by Anderson .paak and War and Leisure by Miguel and am searching for more
>lana is never discussed on this board
Except she always being discussed here prior to this new album.
but really, why do they?
SO BASED
>still caring for Pitchfork reviews
cringe af
Her past albums are rarely discussed here.
Laurel Halo has never released anything that sounds slightly similar to a pop album, why would you even compare them
Thank fuck I'm not an Amerishart. Worry more about the bulletproof vest you have to wear when shopping for this album you fat fucks
Because Lanabros are a minority in a sea of tasteless queers on this board.
It's pure kino.
If you made a Lana thread it would just die at five post. The first calling her an industry plant and the second telling you to fuck off
No hunty.

I'm kind of happy for her cause i figured she'd fade away into irrelevance and now she apparently made her mark on history which is pretty cool.
Lanabros are literally tasteless queers though, I've seen their Twitter profiles.

because of a pitchfork review written by a single person
Why can't you guys just admit it's a good album?
For me it’s golden hour
pitchfork is one of the most powerful tastemakers so yes it has that kind of influence. It's obviously a good album by popular music reviewing standards otherwise it wouldn't be receiving this praise, i agree with other people though she's been panned plenty of times for years on her albums.
It's not like she's been getting pushed, she's been an icon of sorts for almost a decade now.
Do you think I would even hit play on a fucking Lana Del Rey song if I was a dedicated /pol/-tard? Seems like you just wanted to shoe horn /pol/ in there to make yourself feel better about something. And thats weird my dude. Very weird.
Has she ever openly discussed, or admitted regret over her plastic surgery? I wonder if it's some permanent un-dissolvable filler she got years ago, or if it's something she chooses to maintain.

who
It was hyped up more than Taylor due to its long roll out
It’s better than lust for life and honey moon, but nowhere as good as ultraviolence or born to die. Also since when did Yea Forums start taking interest in Lana Del Rey? The only things people used to post about her are that she’s an industry implant and that she looks like Caitlyn Jenner
She looks beautiful in this picture, yall are foul creatures.
Born to Die was huge here when it came out. There were threads about it every day. Lana Del Rey used to be the Queen of Yea Forums.
no and she ruined her face
sneed
>She looks beautiful in this picture, yall are foul creatures.
how?
internet marketing for an industry plant, same as the last 3 years worth of album shilling
I use to make threads about Lana and her Lizzyt grant era stuff and the threads never reached more than 10 replies before they die
She looks like a pretty lady? Her smile is attractive?
no it isnt, ruined her face with plastic surgery; she was a 10/10 qt in her prime though
I guess I disagree? She has a beautiful smile.
Pitchfork absolutely doesn't have that kind of influence anymore. Their readership has been in steep decline and they've alienated their core indiebro audience through their heavy social justice and feminism tilt in recent years. The only similarity they bear to the site they used to be before Conde Nast bought them is the name.
Sure if you like Botox

Nah I just feel sad that she choose to have facial surgeries and put on this fake 60s beauty queen persona. All her stuff after 2010 just feel so manufactured
(((Antonoff))) is about a Jewish as a jew can get.
This is her most solid album and everyone I recommended it too has loved it. Yes she's an industry plant who fucked her way to the top, but she's never denied that. She's maintained a consistent aesthetic and honed her craft. This might not be atonal shit noise like mu normally loves, but people who actually enjoy music find is pleasurable.
absolutely gross

no what does it say?
Are Silver Mt Zion being sold at Target? No shit an indie music store doesn't care about profanity
>be incel
>seethe that lana made aoty
why
lana is based and doesn't hide that she fucked her way to the top. i mean, there's a song literally called fucked my way to the top. she also mentions harvey's name in a song too.
People only hated Lana because music reviewers got so insecure about the very POSSIBILITY that Lana was an industry plant that they mercilessly trashed her album Born to Die in order to save face, which went on to spend 300 weeks on the charts. This isn't music journalism, it's fashion reporting. Negative opinions about her were just mindlessly spewed by NPCs who have their tastes molded by pretentious soibois who furrow their brows at the camp Americana imagery veiling her sincere heterosexuality and spirituality. No-one was doing music like her before, and no-one will be able to after she's gone.

Honey, I don't hate Lana Del Rey but her fans are quintessential NPCs. Gaga, Ariana, Lana stans are actual bots in real life.
yes she has.

Also I don't really understand the argument that she's a industry plant. I'm sure her label loves her unwillingness to go on TV since 2012 or to put out radio-friendly songs.

but her 2019 album is better ..

this
Note how on the cover it says NFR instead of the full thing.
NFR isn’t horrible but it’s just a standard Lana del Rey record; a few decent tracks, but the rest is so boring, and no single track has any distinctive features. Lana de Rey rewrites the same song over in a million different ways, over again for each record and somehow gets endlessly praised for it. I don’t get it
>endlessly praised
