SONG OF THE SUMMER! This sounds like swimming pools and the smell of lemons.
Most people say that metal music is the music of the devil. The devil is of course an angel, albeit a fallen one. Couldn't it just be that metal music is the music of the angels, the Biblically-accurate ones?

ALBUM OF THE MONTH – MARCH
'Did you know that there’s a tunnel under Ocean Boulevard'
Lana Del Rey
Lana Del Rey has done it again with her latest album 'Did you know that there's a tunnel under Ocean Blvd'. Despite being a dense and demanding release, Lana has hit another high with this album. The production is tasteful, intimate, and well-balanced, with plenty of strings, pianos, and guitars, giving the album a soft power, intimacy, and organic feel.
Throughout the album, Lana ... read more
The subtle and intricate melodies in this album create a captivating listening experience that sets it apart from Titanic Rising. While the sing-along-able melodies in the latter can become less climactic over time, the former draws you in with the enthralling nuances of Weyes Blood's voice.

The composition has a "nectarine" quality, which contributes to the calmer and more hopeful spirit of this installment in ... read more

"Her morose and mundane mannerisms are what makes her special. You just don't get Lana Del Rey at all."
On Vows's review of Lana Del Rey - Love
"You cannot force us to share your opinion. This is a great song and there's no use about complaining that people love this one. You can say that it doesn't meet your standards but don't come arguing that people have no right to like/love it as much as they do. In short, stop dictating us what scores should we give to this single. Give your own goddamn score and respect the consensus."

On Laz's review of Weyes Blood - Front Row Seat to Earth
"Who has been having more impact: Weyes Blood <<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Lana Del Rey
Who has been true to their art: Weyes Blood =============== Lana Del Rey
Who are friends and have collaborated: Weyes Blood, Lana Del Rey
Whose comment and comparison is unnecessary: ^^^^^^^^ YOU
Who is sexist and misogynistic for pitting women against each other: ^^^^^^^^ YOU
Also, while Blood is the more stable, polished and fully-formed artist, but Lana Del Rey just keeps evolving. She just happens to exist in a time where pretend critics like you cannot appreciate a woman's artistic vision."
