    As usual, Ms. Del Rey didn't dissapoint and gave us a beautiful and haunting album, that sounds great. All of us know one her favorite themes: love, and that's what we have here: an album about love, rage and loss, basically the same themes from Ultraviolence, but here they sound more soft.

After all, we don't have Dan Auerbach's guitars and drums, which is sad, he did a great job in Ultraviolence, but Lana brings to us a new and immersive world. It's impossible to don't fall in love with her or her songs,
    Music To Watch Boys To, Freak, Religion, Salvatore, The Blackest Day and 24 are the album highlights and certainly, my favorites, but don't be wrong: the whole album is great and won't disappoint Ms. Del Rey fans (i'm one of them). If you're not a fan of the job of his this lovely and adorable singer, I guess you could give a chance, as she says in Art Deco: ''a little party never hurt no one, that's why it's so right.''.
    In my words: a little listening never hurt no one, that's why you should try.
    As everyone, I can't wait to hear Lana's new album, which is set to be released in late 2016, probably in December.
    Long live to the queen of alternative music!    … Expand

    El sonido del album es más conciso y directo pero aun así hay canciones fáciles de olvidar y la única canción remarcable tanto en sonido como en letra es "Honeymoon"
    Un avance enorme en melodías y voz.

    "Honeymoon" é, no mínimo, uma inovação propriamente dita. O álbum acaba por possuir uma vasta lista de temas usufruídos pela cantora e compositora no disco, tais como: o desejo sexual, o encontro com o amor próprio, a catarse, a isolação, duas faces da mesma moeda, fidelidade obsessiva e o encontro com o divino, todas estas mensagens resumidas em 14 canções com apenas um intuito: o lado"Honeymoon" é, no mínimo, uma inovação propriamente dita.

Tais temas são decompostos em canções com variação de gênero, mas todas elas são apresentas com um vocal doce e mezzo-soprano de Lana, fazendo com que a combinação de sua voz e dos instrumentos, igualmente doces e suaves, seja algo extremamente agradável para audição humana.… Expand

    I personally think Lana has some capability to create better art, although Honeymoon was not an album i was expecting. Very plain and pretty much copying modern pop. Pure basura

    HONEYMOON nos tenía a todos pegados en las ventanas esperando a su salida. Estamos hablando de un álbum de Lana Del Rey, la mujer que ha creado un mundo dentro de su arte y así nos transporta a otros lugares. Lo hizo con el grandioso disco ULTRAVIOLENCE y lo vuelve hacer aquí, pero con más calidad, glamour y perfección.

A pesar de que ULTRAVIOLENCE sea mi disco favorito, debo reconocer que a cuanto calidad es mejor este disco, no solo porque juega con muchos más sonidos, sino porque se atreve a tocar temas distintos a los que venía haciendo. Lana Del Rey, en sus pasados trabajos (Especialmente en Born To Die) se escuchaba muy igual, incluso en PARADISE, llegando a ULTRAVIOLENCE las cosas cambiaron y se despojó de sus ataduras pasadas creando un gran disco, aunque llegaba a la irregularidad, pero gran album que hizo. Llegado HONEYMOON escuchamos cosas nuevas, no solo lo que ella ya hacia, sino que perfeccionó su sonido al punto de agregar flautas, bases trap, guitarras, cuerdas y un sin fin de instrumentos más que podemos escuchar a lo largo del disco. Lo que más me encanta son las voces de fondo que escuchamos en "Freak" que nos transmiten sensualidad. Lo que Lana ha hecho es mejorar y hacerlo para bien, con un disco impecable, de calidad, glamouroso y con una belleza incomparable, sin necesidad de gustar a los demás, sino solo a ella misma. Así que este disco es el mejor de Lana hasta el momento, aunque en mis favoritos aún no supere a ULTRAVIOLENCE, viéndolo objetivamente HONEYMOON le da una paliza a todo lo que ella ha hecho anteriormente.

    absolutely flawless, the single choices, the videos, everything is very well executed. This album never gets old no matter how many times you listen to it. I'm always excited for new Lana music but I don't think she can top this, it's a masterpiece. This is a definite listen to. Honorable mentions: Terence loves you, music to watch boys to, the blackest day and swan song.

    The album begins with a noir-ish David Lynch track 'Honeymoon'- An unforgettable 6 minutes.
    The follow-up track 'Music to Watch Boys to' gives the album a more epic sound using the oboes, the woodwinds and the congas.
    Right after that epic song, the 2 ballads of the album are coming- 'Terrence Loves You' is a ballad that also samples David Bowie's line "Ground control to major Tom". In    The album begins with a noir-ish David Lynch track 'Honeymoon'- An unforgettable 6 minutes.

    Right after that epic song, the 2 ballads of the album are coming- 'Terrence Loves You' is a ballad that also samples David Bowie's line "Ground control to major Tom".
    In 'God Knows I Tried' she sings about how fame ruins her and she wanna be free.
    The three upcoming tracks she uses an electronic percussion - A.K.A "muddy trap energy" tracks. Those are fun and catchy songs.
    She stops the album with an interlude after 'Art Deco' using T.S. Eliot's 'Burnt Norton'.
    'Religion' gives the album 'Honeymoon' a different atmosphere, a darker one. The violins and the drums makes the track even more mysterious.
    The upcoming track has a glorious melody.
    Then we proceed to the most powerful dark ballad on the album called "The Blackest Day". Del Rey goes through some phases after her break-up/lost of her lover.
    After 'The Blackest Day', we can hear some James Bond influenced track named '24'. Lana had fun doing this track, the epic horns makes the song sound even more better than it is already.
    Then we proceed to 'Swan Song', a song about freedom- Del Rey sings "Why you work so hard when you could just be free?".
    Del Rey closes 'Honeymoon' yet again with another Nina Simone cover (Just like with her previous album 'Ultraviolence') called 'Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood'. This track gives the appropriate ending this album deserves.    … Expand

    Honeymoon is the perfect sequel to her last album Ultraviolence. After all the darkness of Ultraviolence, Honeymoon is like the quiet after the storm. Peaceful, and calm, this album is just beautiful.

    Lana has succeeded in creating another lush, melodramatic album that her fans know and love. It's a perfect mixture of "Born To Die" and "Ultraviolence" sounds while seamlessly creating a whole new different sound we haven't heard from her before.

    Well,” Honeymoon” is simply wonderful.
    "Art Deco" "Music to Boys Watch to" "Freak" and "The Blackest Day" are fascinating. Maybe it’s the best alternative album of the year.

    If there's one only word to describe this album, it's "sublime"! A delicious mix between trap music and jazz, with her whispered voice filling my ears. An album made to sound simple, but still loud enough to make you feel all the textures, with a concept to what she stays true from the beggining to the very end of it. Simply amazing!

    Honeymoon is a perfect blend of the two previous albums of Lana and this makes him a wonderful album, the melodies are really good and the presence of trap beat on songs like "Freak" and "High by the Beach" work in infectious and sensual way. There are other gems on the album as "The Blackest Day", "24", "Religion" and "Swan Song", but I can say that the album is divine in all.

    As always, Lana, once more, is touching our souls deeply. I don't think she is evoluting at each album, because since the first time I heard Born To Die I felt this woman's power. And that already was really strong, just like she did in Ultraviolence and is doing with Honeymoon.

Its sad to see the hate thrown at her as if she did anything directly to anyone. You have no life if all you do is shame her and others that adore her. I dislike artists like Jason Derulo and Pitbull but I will be damned if I stooped down to a pathetic level as of the ''haters'' and write hate messages, comments, and reviews. If you don't like her and her music please write content that give complimentary reasons as to why, good reasons to dislike, because how is she a bad influence? If it wasn't for Lana a lot of her fans wouldn't even have discovered a lot of influential artists and events from the past. Lana does have tendency to be receptive in terms of some vocabulary, that does not make her a bad artist at all, Bye at all the ignorant, selfish people out there. Lets not get started on the person hating and uses Lorde and Mariana against her LOOOOOL, basic (I love their music though). Why would someone just have the ugly personality to put down artists and their fans that adore her is B E Y O N D me. The only fans I hate is Arianators I will admit. Back to the album its a fantastically produced, sung, and written album. Songs like 'Terrence Loves You' basically is the reason she IS talented, don't play. This album may have like one or two weak songs. The album in general has a couple of flaws but Lana now knows her place in the industry and and how to work with it so a lot of this was kind of on purpose?? The album (like any album) should be judged on whether or not you like this style, if you don't like it, why would someone really embarrass themselves and ridicule an artists and beloved fans because they don't like the music, sad, really. I literally only seen more than two people give actual good reasons as why they dislike Lana or any artists in all honesty.… Expand
