Why do the majority of Lana fans hate Honeymoon?

To all the Honeymoon haters out there, how come you hate it? Do you find it boring? Too mellow? Too much of a step down from Ultraviolence?

Personally, I love it and honestly can't see why people hate it so much- the only tracks I dislike on it are High By The Beach and 24 (never got into that). The whole album is a journey of beautiful vocals that our ears were too lucky to be graced with, and for me it represents a truly happy time in my life before my depression ever truly developed to what it is today.. I try not to listen to it as much now (or at least until I'm 'cured':trollga:- and I'm getting there with that) because I want the beautiful memories I had last summer to remain with it.. unadulterated purity. The whole thing feels like a hazy, nostalgic dream.

My Top 3 tracks from Honeymoon: 

Honourable mention:

Freak and High By The Beach are the only songs that aren't boring as hell.

 

Compared to the rest of her discography, it is the lowest of her potential. 

 

The album's not a horrible album, but it's her worst album.

It's probably my least listened to album but I still think it's great. It doesn't deserve hate from "fans."

It's my favorite by her so

 

Edit: Honestly Ultraviolence is the hardest one for me to get into

Take a moment to think of just flexibility, love, and trust~

I was never a Lana fan. I listened to BTD and Ultraviolence and didn't like them, but Honeymoon is one of my favorite albums of all time. It's so good. I guess it makes sense that her fans don't like it, because it is very different from her other stuff.

I actually just listened to it again this weekend cause I was in some thread and everyone was trashing Honeymoon and I wanted to give it a second shot (I didn't like it either when it was released). I was into it but after High By the Beach I was over it. Every song is so slow and boring and sounds like all the other songs. The pacing of the album is just very dull and it all sounds uninspired. Some of my favorite Lana songs are on there though: Honeymoon, HBTB, and Salvatore.

It's funny cause I think this is her most critically acclaimed album but all the stans hate it

Look the thing with honeymoon is that it takes too many moments to be dream time jazz and that gets lost by some of the instrumentals and vocals on the album. If she had just changed the pace of some of the songs on the record they would be much more tolerable and therefore a less hated album. I personally think her Jazz skills on 24 and Terrance Loves You are some of the best in Lana's discography. But some of the other tracks on the record try combining that with trap music and then it just doesn't know what it wants to be as an album.

I don't hate it, but I think it's kind of boring. To me, she'll never beat the unbelievable high of BTD and Paradise.

I’m a simple guy to please, if you like Melodrama, we chill.

Anything after paradise has been trash.... But I seriously don't blame her, you can't just top BTD just like that, it's not an easy fate even for the creator, lanas discography are too alike, she needs to switch up things a bit

I love Ultraviolence but prefer Honeymoon..

the second half of Ultraviolence is the best imo.. and the iTunes exclusive tracks seem to be better than some on the standard record.. not that I hate the standard tracks but Flipside is pure heaven..
