Art Deco, Freak, The Blackest Day, God Knows I Tried, Terrence, Religion and High By The Beach all slay, but the rest is wack.
24 is just flat out boring. Only listened to it like 3 times, probably won't listen to it again. Swan Song is cute, but it's just whatever. Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood is so unnecessary, and Honeymoon is just horrible.
MTWBT is nice, but it just doesn't go anywhere. I wish the chorus was a little bit more powerful, but her vocals are just so monotone. And Salvatore is alright, again, I wish the production was better. It only picks up at the end, and the lyrics are messy.
I also agree with the person who said the lyrics on this album are a little bit disappointing. Compared to BTD and Paradise, Ultra and Honeymoon's lyrics sound half-assed. There are some songs that have beautiful lyrics like TBD, and Terrence. But songs like HBTB and GKIT (even though I love them) lack in comparison.
I wish Lana would try a little harder with the chorus' and I wish the production was more upbeat. It doesn't have to sound like BTD, but just not so damn slow. Like I swear, I had to sped-up some of the songs cause they were just soooooo slow. I like the album as a whole, and I'll always love Lana, but can she get a little bit more life in her songs?
As a whole, I would rate the album like this:
- Honeymoon - 2
- MTWBT - 6.8
- TERRENCE - 9.6
- GKIT - 10
- HBTB - 8.9
- Freak - 8
- ART DECO - 9
- RELIGION - 9.6
- SALVATORE - 4
- TBD - 10
- 24 - 3
- Swan - 5
- DLMBM - 1
Score: 7/10
