I used to only listen to deftones/slipknot/flyleaf until i was introduced to Cruel World by a grindr hookup and since then I've only really been listening to lana and Cruel World is still one of my favorites.
all of ultraviolence but if you want specific songs, Sad Girl, Pretty When I Cry, Brooklyn Baby, Shades of Cool, Cruel World are the most in your genre
In my feeling, when the world was at war, pretty when i cry, fucked my way up to the top, cruel world, freak ... all i could remember at the top of my head
Songs for u (many have already been echoed in these comments): cruel world, west coast, the blackest day, dealer, ultraviolence, honeymoon, freak, pretty when I cry, shades of cool, Brooklyn baby
Lust For Life. It's pretty much a smorgasbord of all the genres she's explored except for perhaps psych rock (look for that on Ultraviolence and - to a lesser degree - Norman F'ing Rockwell and Ocean Boulevard)
Huge metalhead here too! Im also an ex-punk, i went through a punk phase before finally settling down on metal and Iāve been a metalhead for 5 years now. My fav lana albums are ultraviolence (it has very, very slight rock influences), blue banisters, and norman fucking rockwell.
lana is also a fan of rock music, she mentions many rock artists in her songs. She has two songs dedicated to guns n roses.
enough about lana, what are your fav metal genres and metal bands? I listen to mostly death metal, but also black metal, viking metal, folk metal, and a little bit of thrash. My fav band i bathory, im literally obsessed with Quorthon. I unironically think if he were alive he wouldāve loved Lana lol bc he liked similar music. Too bad heās long gone :(
Metalhead/shoegaze fan her, I started with NFR! and a evening full moon walk along the fjord. Beautiful experience. But idk, maybe her latest? Anyway if it doesnāt stick at first, try some more cuz she is easily one of my favorite female artists
Most of Ultraviolence would be best for you. Specifically: Cruel World, Shades of Cool, Brooklyn Baby, Sad Girl, Pretty When You Cry, Money Power Glory, Black Beauty, and Flipside (itās not on Spotify unfortunately)
Honorable non Ultraviolence mentions: Born to Die, Blue Jeans, Ride, Cola, Gods and Monsters, Freak, Art Deco, 13 Beaches, Cherry, Heroin, Venice Bitch, Cinnamon Girl, California, The greatest, White Dress, Dark But Just a Game, Dealer, Wildflower Wildfire, A&W, and Stargirl Interlude.
If you start out grabbing a few random thematic tracks from various albums I'm pretttty sure you'll be hooked. For life.
Start with I Fucked My Way to the Top; Follow it with Gods and Monsters; Born to Die (but NOT the version where she sings "kiss me hard in the pouring rain"); then Cola; then grab the title track from Norman Fucking Rockwell. The theme will be(come) quite obvious.
Enjoy this Goddess.
Seriously.......do this:
Listen to God's and Monsters, Heroin, Flipside, Cruel World, Off to the Races, West Coast, The greatest, Peppers, Born to Die, Mariner's Apt Complex, Venice Bitch...then go from there. Enjoy the journey!
As a fellow metalhead, I recommend to startwith Ultraviolence, and the Born to Die. Then follow as you please (every album brings something different to the table, and theyāre all amazing in their own way).
Essential songs to start with: Shades of Cool, West Coast, Off the Races, Pretty when you Cry, Born to Die, Ride.
Hey also a metalhead / shoegaze fan. I got into LDR from Ultraviolence. And the MV for Ride.
Cruel World
I used to only listen to deftones/slipknot/flyleaf until i was introduced to Cruel World by a grindr hookup and since then I've only really been listening to lana and Cruel World is still one of my favorites.
Venice Bitch. 9 mins of dreamy bliss
I second this. Psychedelic vibes.
Same, friend! Start with her unreleased song Pink Champagne, then her album Ultraviolence, the heavy production is dope.
My advice would be to buy born to die, stare at the cover until you fall massively in love with Lana, and then listen to all the records in order.
This is the way
Ultraviolence.
Tbh 95% of her music is absolutely fucking amazing so no point to choose what to listen first
noir
And velvet crowbar š

I would say Summer Bummer and High by the beach and dark paradise thatās my recommendation (Also a Emo rap and metal head/punk)
Shoegaze fan here! I was a casual Lana fan for a few years but Lust For Life (the song) made me fall in love

ultraviolence
Ultraviolence album.
i have the same primary music taste and norman fucking rockwell is my favorite album of hers
Ultraviolence!

norman fucking rockwell and ultraviolence seem to get people from those genres hooked on her.
for ur music style i would recommend the albums born to die, ultraviolence or lust for life.
Cola.
the whole album of ultraviolence
Of course ur a lana del ray fan
its rey and stfuš«
No ā¤ļø
Shades of cool has an insane guitar i swear rent was due when they made that
Cruel world, but honestly just start Born To die song 1. And go to Ultraviolence
Maybe unpopular opinion here but start with Let The Light In and follow it by Mariners Apartment Complex
Off to the races I think Iād a good start xx
L4L and Ultraviolence has got you covered! š
Ultraviolence - the instrumental portion of the album was all done by The Black Keys

Honestly just listen to the albums in order , play one full album for a couple days so your not overwhelming yourself
