Lust for Life [CD]

Crazy good if your into the style!

even though i didnt pay attention to the fact thta its a vinyl and not a audio but love it anyways!!! Great product fast shipping!!

I fear that Lana is running out of ideas. She has always presented herself as a storytelling type of musician, but lately those stories have been uninspiring starting with Honeymoon. I criticized Honeymoon because I felt it was too one-dimensional. Thats not really the problem with Lust For Life. She has created a bit of a more up-beat chill tune that is a bit refreshing. Unfortunately other problems come into play. Half the songs on this album sound rough and unpolished. Tracks like Cherry, Summer Bummer, and God Bless America sound like they belong in an experimental EP rather than the final product of an album - kind of interesting sounds but so not ready for prime time. Then theres the flagship song of the album, Lust For Life. Im going to nominate it as a candidate for Worst Lyrics of 2017. Droning take off all your clothes ad nauseum does not make a good song, whether you collaborated with The Weekend or not. I DID like White Mustang and kind of liked Heroin, but thats pretty much it. TLDR - Album feels unfinished and too rough for release. I feel like Lanas creativity peaked with her Paradise EP, and now its become stale, like shes burned out or something. I hope she can take a break and come back with something better, because I LOVE her voice!

Love her. Nothing wrong with it. It’s in perfect condition.

Giving this album 2 stars, because I simply do not like it. I dont hate it, but I dont like it. At all. Unfortunately, I bought the MP3 album. I wish I had waited and streamed it, because I cant return it. I loved Born To Die, and if everyone was honest about it, thats when Lana peaked. Its terribly sad that she peaked on her very first album, but there it is. It was cohesive, poetic, gritty storytelling music at its finest. Ultraviolence was darker and an attempt to flip the script on music as we know it. I couldnt get through the whole album, so I only purchased half. I was excited when Honeymoon came out, thinking that perhaps she was returning to her original style. It seemed like a more drug-induced/less depressed Ultraviolence. I purchased 2 songs from that album. THEN Lust for Life comes along and I am thrilled to see Stevie Nicks on here, as well as some other special guests I hadnt heard of. The cover + the guest singers made me think this would be a departure from the past 2 albums, and I was right - but, boy, it is NOT in a good way. This album is just clumsy. The rap doesnt fit. Again, trying to take a departure from music as we know it by flipping the script. It worked on West Coast. It doesnt work on Groupie Love (which is one of THE worst songs here) and Summer Bummer. The duet with Sean Ono made me sleepy. The incredible Stevie Nicks is featured in one of the worst songs on the album, and it makes me wonder what she was thinking agreeing to this. I had such high hopes when I saw her name in the track list. Anyway ... this album is indeed a departure from her previous style. Born To Die was creative genius. Ultraviolence was like walking in a depression haze, which isnt altogether bad. It had moments. I still half loved it. Honeymoon was mystical, drug induced nonsense. Lust for Life is the in between of all that - the waking up sober to the news moments, the buzz wearing off to a Beatles song moment, the black withdrawal moments, and the hazy high moments. The thing is - without comparing this to any previous album and having it stand on its own - this album is clumsy, not cohesive, feels contrived rather than like free-flowing art, and utilized some really bad ideas. Im sorry. It just stinks.

Keep skipping words on the tracking. Record looks clean but not smooth when playing. I order 4 albums and this one didn’t work as well.

It came in excellent condition one of my favs from lana but the only thing was it didn’t come in the explicited version. But besides that’s very good album.

Not my favorite. All other Lana albums I can listen from start to finish without a problem. Easily 3 songs too many. Coachella, Beautiful People and In My Feelings needed to go. Best songs are Heroin, Cherry and 13 Beaches. White Mustang needed to be a minute longer. Still at least 6 very good songs. Now my Lanas greatest hits playlist just topped 30 songs

Me encantó, todo esta muy bueno y llegó antes de tiempo.

Not a bad album, but not a great album either. Im not as overwhelmed by Lana Del Ray as I was when she first appeared on the music scene. At that moment--she was unique and a far cry from what many others were listening to or radio stations were playing but now--frankly, this release sounds no different than her others. In fact, the remixes are the only releases that show any real growth and at that point we have to give credit to the producers & engineers who mixed them. I mean how many times can you do the same torch song over and over again? Apparently quite a few when people keep buying them. Nevertheless, I will purchase the album just as I will probably purchase her next album but Im afraid it wont be long before it finds its way to the back of the stack. Im sorry--but nothing on the album jumps out at me, except her smile. Thats probably because theyve done such a good job of merchandising her.
