Lust For Life

We may be born to die, indeed, but at least let us put on a smile. My God I'm in paradise, endlessly looping listening to the best of all time, SIDE D touches me so deeply that I don't even know, I want to play this sonography in this art. With "Ultraviolence", a diverse, stripped-down psychedelic pop-rock slow-burner of an album, LDR proved that she is an adamant artist, moving further away from the baroque hip-pop of "Born to die", and the eclectic indie/goth pop of "Paradise".

The booklet is very beautiful and comes with several photos of the aesthetics of the era. On "Change", a simple voice/piano number (the last track for this new set, recorded hours before the mastered record was turned into the label), she sings: "Change is a powerful thing, people are powerful beings".

Amen Lana Del Rey Reflecting the troubled times we are in, and addressing the state of the nation that Lana seems to be so fixated with, as it can be witnessed on the wonderful triptych of "Coachella - Woodstock in my mind", "God Bless America - And all the beautiful women in it", and "When the world was at war we kept dancing". I recommend listening with a good sound system, not wireless Bluetooth, but wired. Though enjoyable, its songs were missing the instant appeal and sophisticated simplicity which drenched all those fantastic pop songs that captured the crowds and created a worldwide fascination back in 2012-2013.

Beautiful pack to collect and keep with care for how beautiful it is, it looks just as you see in the photos I have attached to my review. You should definitely pick it up if you don't already own a physical copy of the cd, as LDR boxsets are hard to come by at such an affordable price. The box is the same as the cover of the cd (front and back) and inside of it are three parts. Gone are the Hollywood iconography and spurned love stories, this is a new and different artistic chapter for her.

Her debut proper, the mesmerising "Born to die", heralded a pop renaissance, receiving a plethora of accolades. 2015's "Honeymoon", her most refined set to date, was so utterly self-indulgent, to the point that one would say that she was sabotaging herself, in an attempt to prove that she is neither interested nor willing to rehush any of those past records' brilliance.

supeeer infravalorado:(, la vdd vale la pena este cd 😺

Which only makes the release of this 4th set even more interesting, as on "Lust for life" the damned diva, desolate princess, innocent lolita, insatiable b*tch, presents her most optimistic set of songs, managing to save herself from becoming a martyr to to her own carefully constructed persona. Although she made a killing with the tortured, heartbroken style on previous albums, "Lust for life" breaks away from contemplating troubled love affairs.
