Metacritic:

Melodrama - 91

Lust For Life - 84 (for now)

 

I guess the mystery has been solved  :reductive::reductive::reductive:

LFL is great but I put it behind Melodrama, which I place in my top 3 of all time. I think LFL is my third fave behind  Melodrama and Harry Styles self titled. But really i put it  very high because this year has shaped up to be a great year in musoc (**** you BBH100 top10)

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

SZA's album is better than Melodrama and Lust for Life. :nails:

I agree. I've listened to both albums once and that's probably the only time I will. 👁👄👁

CTRL is definitely top 5 records of the year, but its got too many unfinished ideas on it for me to call it better than Melo or LFL as she's basically admitted her tracklisting could've been better and there were other tracks that could/should've made it. Here's to getting ALT in 2017 if we are lucky :pray: 

Personally, idk yet. I have a few more anticipated records this year, but I do enjoy listening to this record more than Melodrama atm. Its funny, I actually wanted more upbeat from Lorde, and more down tempo from Lana, but Lana's mid tempo on this album to me is still really pleasant and we get a lot of different moods and vocals, so shes serving versatility. Lorde's album is beautiful, but I don't really love to listen to it unless its all at once or in some kind of order, sans Green Light + Perfect Places + Supercut unfortunately :noparty: I expected a more balanced album sonically, even if everything on it is very cohesive and there are no duds. Critics love a concept album, and Melodrama does it well, but I just enjoy Lust for Life more. I still have only heard it in full 1nce then individual tracks spammed and havent heard it in lossless or even m4a/ itunes + yet :giveup: So it still needs an "official" full listening in my book.

 

Why would you miss out the best songs?:huh:

I'm excited for LfL when I hear it later but I'm not expecting it to exceed Melodrama for me.

I love judas SO MUCH but I canʹt look like a copycat of JLO!!!!

Every single time a popular female artist releases an album this thread pops up. I'm waiting for "Is Lust For Life better than Joanne?" and "Is Lana a better songwriter than Gaga?" to come next.

Coachella - Woodstock in My Mind, God Bless America..., Heroin, and Lust for Life...

Coachella sounds a bit rushed, I kind of agree BUT 

God Bless America?

THE TITLE TRACK?

EVEN HEROIN?

NO OFFENSE BUT ARE YOU ****ING KIDDING ME?

Sry for just getting to this, didn't notice you quoted me.

I meant that I can listen to Green Lights, Perfect Places and Supercut on their own, but the other tracks on the album to me sound way better in context, so I want to listen to the record as a whole to get all of the emotional impact. GL, PP, and SC all sound very immediate to me, especially GL and PP.  I can listen to like, HF/L, TL, WITD, Sober, etc. alone, but I usually just don't want to, even though they are all magnificent tracks. It's hardly a con, but :emma:
