After really sinking my teeth into this album, I think I can say it’s one of my favourites released this year so far. I personally prefer it to Jewellery, and love how the band plays with noises, textures and harmonies here. Favourite tracks: Low Dogg, Holiday, Nothing, Heaven, and Easy.

Also pretty neat is that there are official music videos for every track up on Micachu’s youtube channel. The videos are pretty clever, and thanks to them I could finally figure out the lyrics to half these songs.

I agree with you that Video Games is a damn fine song, and I’m definitely not a diehard Lana Del Rey hater like some of the other people here.

The thing I dislike (but even that’s too harsh of a word) about LDR is her plastic surgery. I know it doesn’t have any impact on the quality of her songs or her voice, but I guess I have a personal disliking of people who feel the need to get plastic surgery? I dunno. It just seems like she wanted to be famous so badly that she traded away her natural beauty for a run-of-the-mill surgeryface which isn’t attractive to me and makes it hard to look at her as authentic.

A stupid thing to think, perhaps, but it’s just my opinion! I want her to succeed in her career because she’s got promise based on what she’s done musically. :)
