    We've heard Lizzy Grant and Lana Del Rey sing before, but this is the first time we hear Elizabeth Woolridge Grant. Lana has reached a point in her career where she doesn't need to make up stories to sing her songs, her reality is interesting enough, the proof of that is "Fingertips".

    Sem dúvida um dos melhores álbuns da Lana, superou meus álbuns favoritos como o Ultraviolence e se tornou meu queridinho.
    Um álbum repleto de ritmos diferentes, com um lado pessoal da Lana onde em algumas músicas podemos sentir como se fosse uma carta aberta, já em outras músicas sentimos a emoção de uma Love Song.

    Such a great album only coming from the greatest songwriting of this century. The encapsulation of Lana Del Rey’s eras into this album was definitely what made it such a strong contender in her discography. It literally takes the listener on a journey that feels like a tunnel and they find the light towards the end.

    this album makes you travel through lana's reality, an album that talks about her life, family, her legacy and how she wants to be remembered. She immerses you in sadness through poetry and then forget about it with her last three songs and return to her reality of the moment. It's like watching a movie and you can imagine everything.

    I’m not the biggest Lana fan, but this is an ambitious project and she mostly pulls it off, so I have to commend her for that. As expected, there’s plenty of put-on glamour and depressive/unhinged piano balladry. If you like that from Lana, you won’t be disappointed.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Lana has done it again with another masterpiece. While some might say that this album was bland or boring, its actually the exact opposite. Del Rey mixed R&B,Trap and Piano Ballads together. I don't see anything bland or boring about that. Songs like Peppers,Fishtail,A&W and Taco Truck x VB are for the people who enjoy trap and R&B sounds. Paris Texas, Candy Necklace and Fingertips is for people who enjoy songs that you can just vibe to and listen in the car. Margaret,The Grants,Grandfather Please and Let The Light in is for people who enjoy Heavy ballads and Title Track,Sweet and Kintsugi is for people who enjoy more soft ballads. All of the songs have great diversity and the interludes are perfect. The reason I deducted 1 point is that for all of the hype, this album was a bit underwhelming. Songs like Kintsugi and Taco Truck x VB didn't have good production. Overall, this album was a great listen to and definitely one of Lana's best projects. I rate it a 9 as Lana obviously worked hard for this album.… Expand

    An album rich in instrumentals but that can sometimes become repetitive and monotonous. Many songs manage to stand out within the album and make its aesthetic stronger. It's not a bad album it's just another level album by Lana Del Rey that probably doesn't suit all types of people but that pleases a good part of the singer's audience

    In this album we can see the persona of Lana Del Rey entering the tunnel of her painful memories and her affectionate memories. At the beginning, she will show her feelings in the experiences of the last years. After an epic, satirical A&W, we hear an interlude of a pastor preaching the 8th psalm with chilling fervor, as he realizes his preaching turns back to his own life and Lana isIn this album we can see the persona of Lana Del Rey entering the tunnel of her painful memories and her affectionate memories. At the beginning, she will show her feelings in the experiences of the last years. After an epic, satirical A&W, we hear an interlude of a pastor preaching the 8th psalm with chilling fervor, as he realizes his preaching turns back to his own life and Lana is amused to see the critics and realize that not even the Creator is perfect, but he can create perfect works. The interlude is an allegory for how critics have always seen Lana as flawed, which she's always admitted she is, and how they've seen her create a universal work: Norman **** Rockwell.
    After that, Lana introduces us little by little to her past, with her unstable romances in Candy Necklace, a beautiful ballad that makes us travel back in time. Coming to Jon Batiste's interlude, I feel that the feeling of reproducing a work can be worth as much as a verbose interpretation. Knowing this, we get to the deepest and most intimate of the person behind the Lana Del Rey persona: Elizabeth Grant. Kintsugi is the opening to Elizabeth's mind, through its cracks and how there is still such a light inside. Fingertips takes us even deeper into this, Elizabeth is stripped of her persona, in order to show us her most painful scars. Two tracks that cause enormous discomfort, as it is not at all pleasant to show the ugly side of humanity. In doing so, Lana takes her leave so that Elizabeth can continue through the tunnel despite everything. After half an album and an era are over, we arrive at the earthly paradise that Elizabeth always dreamed of - and sang about. Paris, Texas takes us to the most beautiful, innocent and sweet places on Earth, with a unique delicacy. The following track is the epitome of Elizabeth's spirituality. And with majestic singing, she reveals her love, hope and good intentions for the beautiful side of humanity. Let The Light In is an ode to Elizabeth's wild and heartfelt love. Margaret is a beautiful tribute to lovers. Fishtail is the moment when the lyrical self comes to its senses and can no longer bear the suffering or humiliation that its past sends it, ready to leave the tunnel. Peppers is the representation of The final sequence may seem out of place, but it is Elizabeth perceiving the movement that the new world awaits her when she comes out of the tunnel and how her achievements resonate through the new reality that she helped to build with her work.    … Expand

I was once at a point were i fell for the negative press about lana. But those critics were not critizing her art but her as a human. I think that there is a beauty to her art, something deeper. Romaticizing harsh topics. Lana her new album is an emotional rollercoaster carried by beautiful piano guitar and drums. She also dips into some trip-hop-ish styles. It doesnt feel out of place its rather an award for the very emotional and heavy previous part of the album. The last three songs are just Lana having fun and doing what she wants to do and not giving a f*ck. The beginning of the album deals with lust, and death. In A&W she talks about how she can never enjoy casual s*xual without being called a wh*re and being told she enjoys it. Which brings it back to her older critics "she is romanticizing ab*se" which she was clearly not. In her song Kintsugi she details that you just need to lisent to what she is saying and not take it at face value. She also says that she isnt a made up a persona, she is lizzy and she is Lana. In this album she addressed all teh critiques and she basically said "Im gonna do what i want to do". What she also detailed in Fingertips "I just need two seconds to breath". Those two seconds is this album. An amazing 2 seconds. This is a pure masterpiece, album of the year and maybe even the best album in forever.… Expand

This proves how real art wins, and I'm totally impressed at Lana's maturity in songwriting and thoughtfulness of 'DYKTTATUOB'. Every song just makes you feel beautiful. My personal issue is that as a non-native English speaker, understanding lyrics was really tough, so before actually reading them, I could only experience the sound of this album, which is, to be honest, very minimalist and repetitive. It was so hard not to fall asleep to it on the first listen without listening attentively to the stories on this album. After diving deeply into the lyrical side, I revisited this album and it opened up from the other side to me. I still can't enjoy the full album, which is really long, but I absolutely love the most parts of it. The Song of the Year will be Lana's!… Expand

    One of lana del rey's best work, unattainable something incredible like all her albums, but something more mature and different from her older works, the poetry, the instrumentals, her vocals.

    the interludes suck, the songs don't stick like bubblegum. What saves this album is lana del rey's lyricism and her poetic metaphors

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. One of the best albums of 2023. The story telling is just amazing- how it's like a real tunnel, going from the start, to entering the tunnel, to being in the darkest part in the middle, and then exiting a new person. Kintsugi and Fingertips are such sad songs, I can barely get through them without crying. And then ending the album off with the iconic, "bang bang, kiss kiss" line from Venice **** just felt so heavenly. Rating this album a 10/10 does not even come close to describing how amazing this album truly is to me. This is one of Lana's best works and I am very excited for her next album.… Expand

    Did You Know That There’s a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd is a 16-track, 78-minute album, and some of it will lose even her most ardent fans. Track eight is where it regains itself through the extended metaphor of “Kintsugi”: a Japanese term for a pottery repair technique that calls attention to the crack rather than hides it. .... [After “Margaret”] There are three more tracks, though.

    If you've not already bought into the LDR mythos, it's like joining a long-form TV show midway through its difficult fourth season. [Jun 2023, p.26]

    So while Del Rey is still the same sepia-tinted, sun-soaked American aesthete that she once was, there are real lifetime stamps all over Did you know that conjure a biographical sincerity, instigating a personal closeness.
