“Hope is a dangerous thing for a woman like me to have.”
-Anthony Fantano, 2019
He is the Venice bitch
BYE LMFAO
Napalm Breath
But I have it.
knew he was lesbian
Lana said she included the long instrumental on Venice Bitch because she wanted it to be a song that you could roll down the windows, and cruise the streets at night and just let go of everything.
miku hey neat I did that today, what a coincidence
Is a brilliant song imo, the best of the album for me.
@@alejandropradalozano6525 yep, that song is the reason I bought my first Lana Del Rey album.... so georgous
Literally what I do everyday, wondows down Del Rey up
which is fine but my problem with the song is that I have heard too many better psychedelic music trips than what Lana and Jack did here
Lana's themes and sound evolved and matured with her fan base. A lot of fans that found Born to Die were young millennial teens at the time and now they're older and into their 20s who have greater passions and cares in this world, which fits with Lana's current material.
The accuracy
So true !
yup, this is very much the case for me
Innocuoustranger u got me there
It’s like we all grew up together
Roses are red
Violets are blue
Melon gave Lana
A Tool times two
this hits different after midnight it’s straight fire

Right In two, you could say

oof
Thank you for censoring the f word so my mommy will let me watch Anthony!!!
I'M SHITTING AT THE MOMENT

smh anthony shilling for that sweet ad revenue
blame the algorithm
Hahahahahha
i just realised the lyric from mariners apartment complex “you lose your way just take m hand, you’re lost at sea then i’ll command your boat to me again” IS REFLECTED IN THE ALBUM ART, THATS HER COMMANDING U BACK TO HER BITTYCH
Amy Miller 🤯
there's also LA burning in the back like the lyric on Venice Bitch 😳
Is it just me or is that line reminds ya'll of Jesus commanding the sea to calm down and shit?
OH! OH OH! OHHHHHHHHHH SHIT! You just blew my mind.
@@lucascheinstorni1289 on The Greatest it's "L.A. is in flames, it's getting hot"
I disagree with your point about Venice Bitch. That song is by far her best song ever, and the instrumental section seems to pass very quickly because I enjoy it so much. It's really beautiful.
yes!!!!!! taste!!!!!!! i feel like he didn't let himself get lost in it and got too caught up about specifics and criteria and stuff with vb idk but as a lana stan it's top 5 of all time lana for me
I love the long instrumentals it gives me vibes of classic rock or billy Joel, with awesome long instrumentals
No it's just lovely that synth that guitar. Fantastic.
specifically taste
Yes! And cinnamon girl is fantastic
2019 really the year where TOOL gets a 4 and Lana Del Rey gets an 8
Crazy huh
I mean, you can't really compare them. This Lana del Rey album is insanely good on its own, but it's definitely a 0/10 metal album.
Next thing you know: This New Swans Album? It's not good. *boom*
and its not even wrong
Bro the tool album does kind of suck...
Shirtless review please.
you have been reported for advocating the sperm genocide that would happen if Anthony did a shirtless review.
@@MelMelodyWerner Your forgetting all the woman that will have to change panties if such a review happened.
But hes shirtless in every video already
Shirtless reviews for 10s
I would like to see a toothless review!
CINNAMON OK??? dude... cinnamon is one of the best songs
Momo Del Rey I agree
I cry every time i hear it
Girl this man couldn't see the quality of Ultraviolence, what did you expect
Anton Melnyk very true. what did i expect lol
Lauren Ashley yess, I literally was crying even after it ended . I love it!!
I’m happy for her, she inspired a whole generation of copycats and soundalikes this decade, it’s only fitting that she eventually got to have her moment of critical acknowledgement
who are these copycats?
I think the most noticeable are Billie Eilish and Grimes.
Not copy cats but certainly inspired alot of artists
Lorde
Billie Eilish
Melanie martinez
Etc
grimes? grimes of all people?
stibtihict Yes, soft whispered vocals, consuming romance, layered music and grimes has been open about being inspired by Bjork and Lana del Rey
"THAT'S THE TEA SIS" - Melon, 2019
5:09
That line has been part of the gay/transsexual scene vernacular for decades now.
Lorenzo no, melon obviously invented it, just like he invented the theory of white supremacy in 1624
Lorenzo nobody cares nerd
@@ratiod2289 what is your point? I think everyone knows that is already a phrase and it's just funny to hear Melon say it
Minus two score for having a curse word in the album title.
-1 point for subversion of Christian values
-1 point for calling the democratization bot
Not in my Christian server
Other than that its 10/10
Anthony is truly for the children
Norman Demonitized Rockwell
to be honest your criticism in the beginning is valid but also lana is very self aware which i find many people don’t understand. she is making fun of herself in her lyrics. ultraviolence is mostly discussing the types of girls who listen to her and even poking fun at LA girls. she’s kind of a joke but she’s also talented and beautiful n
Yes, she always knew what she was doing and it was intentional.
@Kim Barack I hope he meant "she's kind of joking"
He or she idk
But if she didn't take herself and her artistic persona seriously, why a critic would do it? I think that excusing her lack of authenticity in her first works because they were some kind of joke is kinda dumb tbh
Tomas Carlos I don’t think she lacks authenticity, I just think that she definitely was inspired by things that seem questionable and hard to nail down to the untrained eye. Sure it was a little tailored, but isn’t every major artist image tailored in the beginning of their career ?
>Talks about Lana del Rey while wearing a Napalm Death shirt
Calculated.
Literally every Carly Rae Jepsen fan in a nutshell.
CheesecakeLasagna lmao can confirm
Lana is the Napalm Death of commercial soft pop though right?
Napalm Breath
You scared all of us with the lack of flannel
For real tho I was ready to square up
It's a Nappy shirt so it's safe enough
Metal band t shirts are the new 8/10.
Never thought Anthony would be so positive towards a Lana Del Ray album
Same! It's awesome lol.
I actually enjoy her work, and glad that her sound progressed because I REALLY liked this album
Wel, this album is actually good
Assalt Peanut it’s not, it’s Norman fucking Rockwell
2013 and 2014 were tough years as a tyler the creator and lana fan but it’s really paying off now
aren't you slightly underestimating her ability to be a bit ironic on her first couple of albums?
James Parker literally no one with two brain cells will assume that she’s being unironic when she sings about her old man
@@onthelam6316 I think she's usually somewhere halfway between irony and unirony, with a varying degree of success
Yes, it was intentional with irony and exaggeration. She knew what she was doing.
@Up To The Wolves yet she got an 8
@@charliez077 Yes she's self-aware.
Lana actually made Antknee say "That's the tea sis"
Anthony is actually addicted to the album and was too busy playing it on repeat since the day it came out. That's why it took him almost a week to finally drop this review.
i buy it
that's the tea sis!
I can actually see that huh
Hilarity
When he said “That’s the tea, sis”. I finally accepted that Melon is one of the great critics of our time.
I thought you were joking.
Damien Nah lmao me too, melon is something else
Hieronymous Lex do you refuse to feel ashamed because of your pretty blue eyes?

that took me off lol
the slander of lana del rey’s older albums is the absolute crime against humanity of the century
Well they’re terrible so
@@f4gsforpelebtd?? Paradise??
@f4gsforpele average fantano stan 😂
This album is lana’s best album period. I know all of her albums are good especially the Ultraviolence and btd are important for most of her old fans but as a new stan for her i can say that this album is her best stuff. I also hope that she will release a really good album like this, this september. Btw i need to say that, this album deserved a light 9 not light 8

actually if you go by the pattern then the next album will be a 9 and then the one after that will be an 11

@@artvandelay154 ultraviolence is shit
Trevin Hughes it’s literally just as good as NFR
Trevin Hughes no fuck that ultraviolence was raw and unfiltered. One of the best albums to date
So now that Lana has self-confidence you stan...I see
Looks like Lana Del Rey is stuck in the album cover and is reaching out to Anthony to pull her out.
I think she wants his phone
Whule the Urban Outfitters Vinyl version Lana Del Rey & 3 more women meditate on stone and still inside a box

No they’re not 💀 bottom 2

@@guyonagravitronmachinestan7595 ur opinion is wrong
Cinnamon Girl is just an "okay" track???
You will rue this comment Melon
don't know what he's smoking, easily one of the best songs on the album
I agree with melon. It's fine.
He’s right about the next best american record. Should’ve left out that track, and kept it in lana demo land...
Yeah its just okay, deal with it 💁♂️
tallonrk1 agreed
nothing wrong with lana singing about her relationship dependency issues. in fact, given the political/cultural climate, its quite rare.
This is exactly what she tried to say in her recent statement hahahaha
@@downhere5413 and exactly what she's been annoyed w ppl like anthony saying for years
even tho i found her music a 'tad' corny back in the day...i like her honesty.
@@nailahhuq1238 just let her do whatever she likes. It’s not that hard (this is not directed at you. It’s for people like him)
You think cinnamon girl is just ok because you failed the cinnamon challenge.
😂😂😂
*gives Billie ellish an 8*
*few months later gives Lana del Ray an 8*
Fantano is secretly a white teenage girl
We all knew.
I laughed so hard i almost died 😂
Billie should've been a 7
mikey Whitethony Girltano
No secret
i can’t believe you liked this album so much you put your yellow flannel up for sale last weekend at lana’s pop up shop.
I literally laughed out loud at this. haha
The poetry inside of me is a warm gun I thought was an allusion to the Beatles song “happiness is a warm gun” cause another song on the album is happiness is a butterfly
Great review Anthony, however I don't know if dropping it 2 points because of the wage gap was the right move
I think Venice Bitch is brilliant, best song she has ever made
then we remembered art deco existed
@@erminedereims400then we remember there are a lot more better lana songs....
@@erminedereims400 why Art Deco? Art Deco is one of the weaker songs from the Honeymoon album lol, her best songs are The Blackest Day, Terrence Loves You, The greatest, White Dress, etc.
YALL NOW SHUT UP HOW TO DISAPPEAR IS HER BEST SONG
I think Backfire is her best
Great job Anthony, but Ultraviolence did not deserve a 2. That's the tea sis!
He gave it a 2!?!?!?
Yes it did
CINNAMON GIRL IS JUST OK??????? WHAAAAAT
MilesoftheMasterRace it’s really not that good honestly
Mariners apartment complex is better
Ultraviolence is the second best album for me and lust for life the least
Agreed 100%
NFR, Honeymoon, Ultraviolence
same
I feel this review is a little bias your hate towards her shows. Especially when you told the story when you went to her concert was front row completely having a blast until she pointed at you and said “hey Johnny 2x4 where’s plank” and everyone laughed at you
KSKAKSKSKAKAKSKAK
Holy shit XD
Hahahahahaha
lmao
@@d.9123 same
Gosh, I know you have a strong hatred for females Anthony but you didn’t have to say “Lana should drop the mic and pickup a spatula”
***femoids
Lmaoooo
i hate woman too. everyone should. thumbs up if u agree
Yes he is a little misogynistic..
"spatula" made me cackle with a fever at 1am
Cinnamon Girl is the best song on this amazing album. Fight me, melon!
fezmel its not lol, its nostalgic.
Like Melon said, it's an OK song. It doesn't do much for me. California and Love Songs are way more powerfull in terms of lyrics and melody. I feel Cinnamon Girl is an ode to Born To Die which just feels out of place.
Mariners apartment complex is THAT bitch
@@tmandrich95 period
Lol, it's only better then The Next Best American Record... You can't barely hear her voice in the chorus!!!
I'm addicted to the Doin' Time cover. The production is so good.
I personally think this is a decent 9. Incredibly gorgeous.
Your thicc arms, however... Disrespectful yet engaging??? Please review them
lol
This comment wrecks the mind
Daddy melon
the “that’s the tea sis” and skit in the middle really solidified this review, love it. 7/10
8*
Damn.

Nice review melon, but you didn’t have to say you enjoyed the lack of minorities on norman Rockwell’s paintings
Underrated fucking comment, LOL.
Norman Rockwell’s paintings had lots of minorities though
Cinnamon girl is clearly one of the best songs on this record
Nah
Lana's first two albums (Born To Die and Paradise) were phenomenal. The whole trip hop/gangsta Nancy Sinatra/LA Confidential trip was brilliant and beautifully done.
Wow Anthony so progressive of you. The first woman to get a 10!
He's saving it for FKA Twigs
it's only an 8 because of the wage gap.
pretty sure there's atleast one classic review of an album made by a woman
What about daugthers???? Tf?
@@FachyMarin MAN IM WAITING FOR FKA :(
that "Cinnamon Girl as a song is j u s t o k a Y" thrown in at the end really hurt lol
It's not that good of a song, imo. I mean, i like it, but "California" and "Love Song" are way more powerful. California is a spiritual successor to "Heroin", "Change" and "Get Free" while Cinnamon Girl just doesn't make me think of anything but "Radio" (which was one of the weak ones of Born To Die, again, imho.)
@@Euphoris nah man I'm with Rachel, "Cinnamon Girl" is imo easily one of the top songs on NFR (along with "The Greatest" and "California", I don't think "Love Song" is that great). "Heroin" is easily one of Lana's best btw (tho I disagree with Melon on "Lust for Life", imo her worst album)
Hey Melon, you should check out this kanye West Album - "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy". I have hunch you'll love it.
He gave it a 6 in 2010. Definitely overdue for a redux review in my opinion...
DonDonConCon he gave it one a month ago you bozo
Lana hasn't only just improved. She has always been the real deal. As a huge fan, it's so rewarding to finally see her seduce her biggest critics. I watched your reviews of her other albums and I was always baffled by your criticisms.
She'll go down in history as a musical icon.
No
I think her road to genius began with Ultraviolence though
It’s not that deep bro.
@@ju4sju4s NFR > entire Gorillaz discorgraphy
Someone got mad lmao
very nice but I wanna thank you for spoon feeding me the other day
Damn, i was hoping i was gonna hate this. Now i know i like it.
Well if I don’t wanna listen to the actual album, I have a fully formed opinion I can spew out around the water cooler as if I have an option of my own
imagine liking Death Grips unironically You’re just as edgy as anyone here lol
But honestly some percent of Lana's fanbase who follow Anthony did abbandon her cuz of his reviews.
I used to be a big fan of her. But all of her songs sound the same, and in this album it still sounds the same to me.
@@annabell2717 Idk how BTD sounds the same as Honeymoon or Ultraviolence...
If you can't catch the obvious Beatles reference to " happiness is a warm gun" you can't call yourself a music nerd.
good review melon but calling lana a "disgusting pedophile" for calling his boyfriend a "man *child* " is not very bright of you.
I don't know why, but having Anthony like an album that I like makes the music even better.
Tig that on top of the fact it just feels good to relate to others
I kinda just like how he decompresses the content of the album and give you the DETS of what is good
Like genius but not trash
that's sad
Ya it's like You don't have to feel wrong and ashamed for liking it anymore. It's liberating
I wish he didn't like it because he don't deserve to enjoy this album if he cannot understand the others
We still won't forget she got a 2, 3, 5 and 6 Anthony.
But dog that's fair. This is her best album.
InBrooken cmon now, Ultraviolence a 2, seriously?
@@jens2049 ultraviolence was very very underrated
InBrooken i have to disagree, her instrumentals on ultraviolence (the older albums in general) were better.
So how abt u remove that quavo Huncho avatar 🤢
Still, I cannot imagine that there can be something as good as "National Anthem" by Lana
I.... Agree
lyrically and instrumentally it really is the superior song
best Lana song of all time. One of the best songs of our decade really
there can't. at least not by Lana anymore.
Money is the anthem
Lana improves so much and I'm glad that you're starting appreciate her. She founds her musical identity and even vocally, she's a better singer than before. I'm proud because she worked for it and she's happy.
Still waiting on that Lana Del Rey review
still waiting on that DAMN. review.
Still waiting on that slim shady LP review
Still waiting on that Kids See Ghost Review
Still waiting for my parents to go on that bike trip
Great review Anthony but that 5 minute decade spanning rant about woman in the workplace was kinda uncalled for
Okay but don't come for Cinnamon Girl this track is amazing
No! Second last track on the album for me. I can barely hear her voice in the chorus. Like he said, it's an okay song, not memorable...
@@Turigemo I agree. I don't understand why everyone loves it. Definitely one of the weakest tracks on the album.
@@scottr2629 I think it's because it sound like it could be from Born to Die, which is her most famous album. Also it's (ok) simple to digest.
@@Turigemo now its a hit over all social media platforms, the human kind has chosen
@@artak4890 it has always been one of the fan faves, I just shared my preference, I'm not dictating what others should like or not. I like the song, but most of the other songs in the album are better (in my humble opinion, of course)
"THAT'S THE TEA SIS"💀💀
Hey Anthony my mom said you can come over again and hang out but she said no more racial slurs in the household ok?
It's really great to be reassured that your reviews are honest and completely unbiased.
Unsubscribed.
Spook Tedesco tf? 😂😂
the Next Best American Record appearing in its finally form this way actually shows a lot of growth, she kept it from Lust for Life and changed the lyrics to make it more uplifting and it is honestly one of my fav songs on the album, overall it's a solid 9/10 album and her most mature. wish you'd reconsider.
There’s nothing wrong with a female wanting her image to portray being submissive the same way that a male should be allowed the choice to present himself that way also. I think her retro Americana style sort of requires her to give off that submissive vibe since majority of women in that time weren’t very out spoken, at least in the media.
The only reason why so many people were against Lana back in the day, is because she was singing about how vulnerable she was and how toxic her relationships were, in an age when female artists were expected to sing about how supposedly empowered they were and how everyone were beautiful (except skinny girl, who were evil and deserved the worst) and mysogynists wouldn't have it. I'm not even a Lana fan, but looking at how mainstream pop was back in the day and what it is now, I find it to be a plausible conclussion.
I can’t shake this album. I was expecting another leap forward for Lana, but definitely nothing this ginormous. It’s nothing short of breathtaking and I’ll die a Stan so don’t @
Stevita Stamerov same. and IDC what Anthony says, Venice bitch is a straight up banger.
weird ugh venice bitch is so gOoD
Raven Trunite The title track and How To Disappear are fucking stunning. Favorite songs on the album.
I love how Lana stroked entire fanbase's sensibilities with this album.
She has some songs that resemble BTD, Ultraviolence, Honeymoon, but those songa never feel out of place in this album.
Raven Trunite dude I am a 26 year old man and I have spent the past week mouthing "signin off bang bang kiss kiss" to myself lmao
“Please don’t cry”
me crying: well shit
The way Anthony describes it, it sounds more like a strong 8 to a light 9 than a strong 7 to a light 8.
Cinnamon Girl literally a masterpiece melon boy
Can we appreciate how cool the album cover is
Calm before the picsart storm
It's so good
Isn’t the warm gun thing in bartender a reference to the Beatles song off of the white album happiness is a warm gun?
it is, and it also ties into Happiness is a Butterfly which is the next track. it's the lil details
Yes, but that doesn't necessarily make it good.
Mijacogeo he’s just saying he didn’t understand the reference lol
Rockwell oh wait yeah duh I didn’t think about that but that’s cool
@@mockturtlesuppe yeah but why do you feel like you have to have an opinion?
I thought Venice Bitch being drawn out so long was meant to be like a mirror of the song Crimson and Clover that she references throughout the legnthy portion

I reeeeally love this album. I haven't ever listened to any of her stuff and just kinda randomly decided to check it out. I'm in my mid thirties and I'm trying to break away from the stereotype that says you stop listening to new music at this stage in my life. Obviously that's not the case for everyone but I found it being a little true in the music I've been listening to. I had to put my classic rock and jazz on hold to expand my palate and i'm super glad that I gave NFR a try.
great review...but Cinnamon girl is just okay??? wha
ikr. i can't stop listening to Cinnamon Girl. Easily one of the best songs on NFR!
Great review anthony, completely agree, but please stop following my wife it's driving her paranoid

The story behind Mariners Apartment Complex is actually pretty interesting. Apparently Lana was talking a walk with this guy she was dating at the time and they stopped In front of mariners app complex. He told something around the words of “I feel like we get each other because we’re both so messed up” and she was taken aback by his words and told him she wasn’t living a sad life and she was actually doing pretty good now. In the interview she says she was inspired to write the track because she felt like she had to take a step back and take that role where she was showing the way and being the brighter light.
I totally agree that Mariners Apartment Complex is one of the best songs she’s ever done.
finally people are seeing the great stuff Lana can create. not only because she improved but i think everyone is understanding she's a real songwriter and not just another singer nobody will remember the name. even because she does have great songs on her oldest albums. it's not bad material at all
I am glad Melon didn´t ruin the Lana album for us like he did to the Tool album for the metalheads
cinnamon girl is one of the best songs on the album imho
Your humble opinion is right and tasteful.
I know he didn't say cinnamon girl is "just ok"
This made my week. Thank you Anthony, I love you.
Fuck it Anthony, I love you*
The review was good up until the point where Melon started talking about how Lana fully represents what the Third Reich could've accomplished.
Wow. 10/10 review! Nice.
"8/10" only because he's just tasteless saynig that cinnamon is just "ok" and a perfection venice bitch is "too long". For me it means that this album is 10/10! Gj lana
His score is based on enjoyment - he starts off at 5 and increases or decreases based on enjoyment / dislike，he doesn't start scoring from 10
WOW!!! Never did I think this day would come!! I LOVE your reviews even though we don't agree on all of Lana's music... because I LOVE her, but still! Very interesting to hear other people's opinions to music that I honestly love!
