    Este álbum nos demuestra que Lana ha crecido tanto y nos enseña a través de su música que ella es una mujer fuerte pero sensible a la vez. Yo crecí con su música y a través de ella me puedo expresar. La lírica de Lana está simplemente en otro nivel, te hace conectar con la música y crea una atomosfera que te atrapa y te hace sentir parte del álbum.

    It’s a album that heals, it’s very emotional and personal. After the interlude the songs became more and more deep and the melodies are stolen from angels

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. this album is really genuine, it doesn't try to fit in with commercial pop, it's just the great Lana del Rey speaking from her own skin, the media has been tough on her, but that hasn't stopped California's golden sunset queen. Expand

    Wonderful album ! Lana Del Rey still proves to us that she is able to release albums regularly and always of quality. A simple but so magical production, the lyrics are written like poems accompanied by haunting melodies
    this album is of an even higher level than "chemtrails over the country club"
    she is truly one of the best songwriters
    Well done Lana Del Rey
    it's 10/10

    Sin duda, Lana en este álbum nos abre paso a adentrarnos un poco más en su verdadero yo, como persona que es. Sin duda, esto se ve reflejado en cada letra de este álbum, simplemente una experiencia única, con cada melodía. Del Rey siempre sorprende con algo nuevo respecto al juego de los sonidos. Agradecido de poder contar con una artistas de tal nivel, y así verla crecer y desarrollarseSin duda, Lana en este álbum nos abre paso a adentrarnos un poco más en su verdadero yo, como persona que es.

    Her most vocally diverse album!!! Amazing eighth full-length release from the queen of sad girls Lana Del Rey. Nearly tops her magnum opus Norman F*****g Rockwell.

    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.
