Great song. 95% of BTD is better but she set the bar really high so I can't complain. As for the lip implants or whatever, she looks the same as she did during her debut, i.e. flawless.

I love the sound and vibe of West Coast.
BTD and Paradise are great, but I don't care for a continuation of either. What I love the most about Lana's music is I really do FEEL it, it's never just background music that I listen to from day to day. I'm excited for the album!

It's a great song, for sure. I like the tempo change...it's very reminiscent of "Gods & Monsters" ("...livin' like Jim Morrison...and I'm saying, f**k yeah, give it to me...") I like how Dan Auerbach brought a little swamp blues to her sound but kept it Lana.
Edit: It's sitting pretty at #3. Will this be her first #1?!

It's so hauntingly eargasmic. :'( I love it. I just wish the vocals were a bit clearer because I literally can't understand a word she's singing. Reminds me of another female artist's incomprehensible mumbling.

Reminds me of another female artist's incomprehensible mumbling. She's singing in clear English. I'm always confused/worried when people say that they can't understand a word someone is singing.

I actually have difficulty hearing her during the chorus, but it's just a word here and there. It's not even that bad, honestly.
It's likely people who are used to clearly-processed vocals on typical pop fodder. The reverb and lo-fi compression are likely throwing people off.

My body is ready for some Ultraviolence. Loving this vibe from her, im rejoycing at the fact that it isnt at all a BTD/Paradise rehash and that shes trascending.

Its different, but I hope we get more variety on this. Not that I dislike 'West Coast' or the cohesive vibe she put off last time, but I really want this to be the album where she proves she's not a one trick pony. I was also surprised by how tame 'West Coast' was. It's not a bad single choice if they're hoping for a hit (and I think they are-- lowkey think they might get one) , but I remember her saying Ultraviolence would be darker than Born To Die / Paradise.

I've had "West Coast" on repeat for all morning. This track is pure awesomeness.

I'm not a big fan of Lana, but I like her. I've listened to both Born To Die and Paradise, and I would like to listen to some of her unreleased songs. Which ones would you recommend me to start with? Which ones are your favorite ones?

Is there a release date for the album yet? Its obviously not 1st May because West Coast isnt even released until 18th May in the UK and they wouldn't have the album out before the single.

"Black Beauty" was supposed to be on Ultraviolence until it leaked, right? I remember her saying something like that.
Here's hoping it makes it onto the album after all!

Black Beauty is like my life theme song :'(. I read somewhere that the album will be out May 26.
Edit:// 'Disco' is one of my fav unreleased tracks by her.

She's gotten better at singing live. She slayed "West Coast" here.

I read somewhere that the album will be out May 26. It hasn't been confirmed anywhere, but some people are speculating that because the UK release date of West Coast is May 18, so they might follow with the album the following week.

"Bright Lights" is probably my one of my favorites from her just because the vibe, sound, and message of the opening lines "I look for you in magazines" is better than entire albums full of lyrics.
