    Lana is back with a wonderful and iconic album, I miss the sound of ultraviolence but this new sound certainly inspired me over the next few months.

    Lust for life is my most favorite album of Lana. In this album, I sense a **** grown woman's real desires and point of view. She encounters all hardships and turns them in to melodic rhythmic poems. She thinks about America, the love, the lust, the falls. This review is messy, so I'd better finish it here.

    Del Rey’s deliciously twisted pop fuses hip hop beats with her breathy vocal delivery; their mutual power is in their ability to keep things hidden, whilst seeming utterly explicit. It’s a heady mix to be caught up in.

    One of her best records, it's a truly masterpiece and should win some Grammys. Cherry and 13 Beaches are two of the best songs. Congrats Lana Del Rey for a beautiful and honest work.

    Lana and hip-hop go together like Oreos and milk. A$AP Rocky, Playboi Carti, The Weeknd, Stevie Nicks and Sean Ono Lennon each bring a piece of their vision into Lana's album to create a masterpiece. Summer Bummer, Love, and Lust for Life are definite standout singles.

    Lana brought elements of every album she released and put it all into one big masterpiece. It's consistent and self-aware. She will inspire generations to come.

    Mirad, este album es una maravilla, desde la primera a la ultima canción. Escuchar el disco completo es una experiencia sobrenatural. Lana prueba elementos nuevos y conectan a la perfección con su estilo. Cada vez que saca album esta señora hace una obra de arte!

    Honestly I think that Lana del Rey finally found herself, this album has better lyrics than her previous albums, and better production. But I think what makes this album more attractive is that she has improved her voice and concept

    The album demonstrates the love of Lana to us, fans, and gets a glimpse of Born To Die, but in the contrary, now it's lust for life.
    I really don't understand the bad reviews, the sound of this album it's truly melodic, and 13 Beaches it's my favorite track.

    Taking off the previous tag, Del Rey's back changed the essential spirit in her new music.She ain't a 80s girl who always addicted in money or other things in the modern life but to be a god away from the world, teaching us the true meanings bout the life.No doubt she created a wonder again.
    BTW LORD IS DEAD.

Sou fã da Lana e já conheço seus outros álbuns e algumas unreleaseds até, antigamente eu não conseguia decidir meu favorito entre Born to Die, Paradise, Ultraviolence ou Honeymoon, mas com o lançamento do Lust For Life eu finalmente decidi o melhor na minha opinião. O álbum começa com sons incríveis, os instrumentais das músicas são dos deuses, letras mais evoluídas e tudo de bom, achei também o álbum mais coesa dela. Começando por Love, o álbum já começa com uma mensagem positiva aos fãs, Lust For Life com sua mega produção é magnifica e sensual, 13 Beaches vem para acabar com o emocional de todo mundo que tem um amor insuperável, a sexy Cherry vem com suas batidas fortes e sensuais mas mostra uma letra linda sobre o amor verdadeiro... o disco inteiro é maravilhoso, vale a pena ouvir. Amém Lana Del Rey… Expand

    Ok! Lets try to talk about this album without the hype included with Love and Lust For Life (song). After this both songs were reveled, Lana gives us two more, Summer Bummer and Groupie Lover, and then the hype decreased. Why? SM and GL were Lana del Rey typical songs, and you can find it in her pasts albums. Why Love or LFL had more impact? Because their were like Summertime Sadness, BornOk!

Because their were like Summertime Sadness, Born To Die and others, she gives us new vibes, new ways to experiment with alternative music.

    It's not a sad album at all, and I'm happy because of that. But, in my opinion, she can give us more epic moments. But, I need to say is her best album in years. HM or U were like the perfect transition from BTD to this! So, I give her a 9/10.    … Expand

    Boas musicas mas outras bem ruins também, não é um album ruim mas não esta coeso na minha opinião, começa com um estilo e termina em um totalmente diferente.

    Album is really good. I can't stop listening it. Change and Heroin are masterpieces. Metacritic should remove all the fake accounts that people create to bring down the score.

    1 of the best albums of 2017 for sure. The only problem I have with this album is that it starts to get a bit boring at the end. Love, Cherry , Groupie Love and Heroin are the highlights of the album

    Better than Honeymoon for sure, this is a masterpiece and I dare to say it's almost as good as Ultraviolence, a great album to recommend for friends who are not used to Lana's sound, also the features on this album are amazing and added so much.

    She finally found the balance between her previous records. There's the dreaming element from Honeymoon you can find in Heroin/Change/Get Free act of the record, but also rock sound references can be found in Cherry and Beautiful People Beautiful Problems; finally classic Lana Del Rey, that one we met through Born to Die, comes back out in White Mustang.

    New vibe ìn Lana Del Rey's music. Live encouragement spirit and unbelievable wonderful harmony of Lana with Rocky, Carti, The Weeknd, Stevie Nick and Sean Ono Lenn. With Lust For Life, Lana cures and heals the sadness she has given the fan since the last albums.

    The optimism of Lust For Life is a pleasant surprise, though the album is still painted in the same shades as Del Rey’s previous releases. At times it’s some of her best material, but it seems like a record best experienced in pieces than as a proper whole.

    While Del Rey’s voice remains firmly at the forefront, the spare arrangements encourage listeners to fill in their own emotional blanks for once.

    Throughout this accomplished, assured new record, Lana manages to repeatedly freeze time and capture those fleeting cinematic moments that make us who we are, while reminding us of who we could be.
