    A Lana consegue se reinventar e se manter fiel a sua essência, letras pessoais com significados nas entrelinhas, as melhores faixas na minha opinião são dealer e Black bathing suit mas todas do álbum merecem destaque por trazer partes da história contada no álbum

    Os vocais de Del Rey estão tão angelicais e distantes como sempre, presos em um devaneio. Ela está empolgada em “Dealer”, forçando-se à beira das lágrimas e registrando-se em seu ápice. Em “Wildflower Wildfire”, ela acelera uma força cada vez maior da melodia. […] Mas, ao retirar a densidade sônica de seu trabalho anterior e tomando seu doce tempo para se descobrir, ‘Blue Banisters’ dá mais brilho ao mundo pessoal cada vez mais vívido de Del Rey.

    As Lana explores a vast space of music, her versatility never stops from getting better. This album shows how raw Lana can be with her music. She didn't hide or filter and sugarcoat words in her song, she wrote it personally. This album manages to add more to how she can make music by even adding the song dealer which is a screamer. Amazing overall.

    LDR delivers every time. Her music is incomparable to any other current artist She’s carving her own path and doing an amazing job at it. Best lyricist of our generation. Her work will be studied for years to come. Under appreciated. I hope she soon gets the recognition she so rightly deserves.

The record doesn't fail to captivate, with the impressive demonstration of Del Rey's vocal range. The lyricism is brilliant, perfectly exemplifying the singer's principal capacity as a writer. The production and instrumentals, yet simple, retain that cinematic touch present throughout Lana's discography, acoustic, melodic and magnificent. The project is unlike any of its predecessors, as it delves deep into the singer's personal life, it's composition, raw and emotional as it can get, feels the truest to Del Rey's self, in comparison to her previous works. The songs, whether they're older (ultraviolence sessions) or newer, perpetually resonate with one another, despite also managing to stand out on their own with individual qualities and characteristics. The singer's evolution, growth as an artist and as a person is made significantly apparent in this album, which might be one of the many reasons why this is her best album. Unique. Brilliant. Emotional. Cinematic. Magnificent. and Astounding is how I'd describe this entire a̶l̶b̶u̶m̶ experience. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Lana del Rey nos invita con Blue Bannister al salon de su casa a tomar una limonada y contarnos sus mas intimos momentos. Nos confiesa las cosas mas íntimas y duras de escuchar de su carrera, pero lo hace con una sutileza tal que a oídos de noobsters del mundo Lana podría sonar simplón cuando, la verdad es que cada sonido del album esta pensado para reflejar la verdadera personalidad de la artista. No deja de lado experimentar con los ritmos y nos encontramos momentos tan míticos como "black bathing suit", en el que el coro se vuelve totalmente loco, la bateria suena alocada y a destiempo y el coro te esta gritando detras de los oidos; y es que en esta canción Lana se deja llevar por la rabia hacia aquellos que han osado estereotiparla, me atrevería a decir incluso que a juzgarla por su aspecto... La lírica se vuelve una parte esencial de este trabajo, momentos tan bien contados como la pista Blue Banister son difíciles de superar, pues te dibuja a golpe de letra un escenario en el que esa persona que le prometió todo no cumplió sus promesas pero gracias a Dios, sus hermanas, sus amigas están ahí para desdibujar las barandillas de ese triste azul a colores como el verde, pero el dolor latente entre mezclado con la esperanza crean esos tonos grisáceos a los que hace referencia. Personalmente mi tema preferido es sin duda alguna Violet for Roses, es un statement en toda regla a la idea de no dejar que nada ni nadie cambie tu esencia, lo que te hace original y unico, no importa si esas cosas parecen las mas simples, son tuyas y punto y nadie tiene el derecho a cambiarlas. Podria seguir y hacer una cirugía improvisada de cada tema pero la verdad es que lo que más me apetece ahora mismo es seguir viendo la lluvia caer mientras escucho el álbum y pienso en las mil maneras en las que Lana mandaría a Kevin a tomar por saco (f..ck u Kevin).

    Blue Banisters is definitely one of her top albums. The whole record flows very smoothly and is very cohesive with the topics and themes throughout. Lana’s vocals reach new heights not heard before in her past records, and her songwriting hasn’t lost its witty touch with the new record either.

    A set of drifting piano ballads that allow her rich and profane lyrics to hit home. [Jan 2022, p.22]

    While the days of Born to Die have long since passed, Lana Del Rey is still seeking paradise, closer now than ever as she turns her search inward, seemingly recognizing that paradise is ultimately found within the best of oneself. Still, if there is indeed a physical Arcadia to be revealed, it has not emerged in its entirety on Blue Banisters. That said, its intoxicating hints are enough to keep seekers thirsty.
