    Beautiful. Timeless. A closing album, a closing chapter. Loved every second.

    As her recent released records, blue banisters brings sun-kissed memories of her troubled American way of life along with non-recommended relationships told with much desire of bringing her story, that exists ahead of the trend.

    The word that best defines the album is "beautiful". It is probably Lana's most beautiful project to date in which she manages to captivate your heart with her soft melodies. In addition, the album has several surprises that will not leave anyone indifferent.

    Este álbum es tan consistente y la producción es sublime, con unos vocales nunca antes vistos y su compasión cruda.

    Full circle

    This album has so much to offer with unreleased songs, songs written with ex lovers, and current songs of where LDR is now. I love her current writing and the maturity of it. Everything she releases is gold

    It‘s just perfect.
    The lyrics and the sound of the album are beautiful and I see myself playing all the songs (especially „Dealer“, „Violets for Roses“ and „Wildflower Wildfire“) every single day for the rest of my life

    talented, brilliant, incredible, amazing, show stopping, spectacular, never the same, totally unique, completely not ever been done before, unafraid to reference or not reference, put it in a blender, **** on it, vomit on it, eat it, give birth to it.

    Pour avoir écouté tout les albums de Lana, c’est pour moi CELUI qu’elle devait produire.
    Un album ou elle travaille sa magnifique voix pour en faire des hymnes a l’amour (et pas que) comme elle le faisait a ces debuts (Lana del ray Aka lizzy grant et unrealised song) avec bien sur des meilleures productions etc…
    Chemtrails over the country club était je pense un très bon album de

    Chemtrails over the country club était je pense un très bon album de transition entre l’excellent Norman f***ing rockwell et Blue banisters. Excellent.

    The successor to NFR. Even though lana has already given a taste for 2021, she decided again to give us her strong personality and artistic brand.

    honestly, besides the 'deception' that was chemtrails, this album fixed everything. Top 2 in lana's discography (number one is honeymoon)

    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.
