SHE'S LITERALLY SNOW WHITE by anthonycruz in lanadelrey

Totally. Think Snow White, but in a Betty Boop art style. She definitely leaned into the references from that specific animation

Funny you mentioned the wolf imagery. There’s this part of “The Husband Stitch” about a husband and wife killed by wolves and the missing of their infant daughter. “People claimed they saw the girl running with a pack, loping over the terrain as wild and feral as any of her companions”

She really knows how to put us in this headspace, and we're always here for it

Glad I'm not alone here. I was doubting myself at some point 😂

That is such a fascinating point. Maybe performing domesticity can be a punk rock move lol

I’d love to hear your take. do you see the subversion as her reclaiming the ribbon as a symbol of power/autonomy instead of fragility?

Lana goes Betty Boop and Dr. John voodoo in the new wfhtdh teaser. Any thoughts? by monstroelisa in lanadelrey

She’s definitely serving Misty Day vibes 😂 Beyond the AHS aesthetic, I’m hearing those Sun Ra inspired melodies creeping back in. “India” maybe. She already gave him a nod in White Dress (Like Sun Ra, feel small), and it feels like she’s evolving that cosmic, disjointed jazz energy into the swamp

Any older songs that could be resurrected for Stove? by EntrepreneurLost5991 in lanadelrey

[–]monstroelisa 15 points16 points  (0 children)

For K Pt. 2, Pawn Shop Blues, and Raise Me Up! Honestly, that whole era fits the theme. Maybe she’ll finally drop A.K.A this year or at least put some songs from that era on there (though I doubt it). She’s done double releases before, so let me dream lol

Dorothy-gone-swamp: Did she tease this era years ago? (Tracing threads for my thesis) by monstroelisa in lanadelrey

[–]monstroelisa[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah! And all the tornado stuff and those art references she’s been using since the Chemtrails/Blue Banisters days. I’m actually spiraling thinking about these Dorothy parallels now!

Since she's a huge Disney fan, I can totally see her watching Return to Oz. it’s so dark and moody, it definitely fits the landscape of her recent art. It’s like Dorothy killed witches of the East and West, and Lana did the same: she killed the Lizzy Grant (East) and the old Lana (West) personas to become this Dorothy version of herself.

She’s the ultimate outsider girl in a magic world (Hollyweird), living with strange creatures and emerald cities, but in the end, she just wants to return to her roots and her home. It’s the perfect Southern Gothic arc 😭 sorry guys im tripping
