Bought the itunes. Mostly I enjoy all the songs, in my opinion this album mostly resembles her Paradise album and I mean the side B only. And there surely some influences from Ultraviolence too.
When she said this album gonna be like her debut, Born to die, I was so excited because I anticipated some hip hop infuse or upbeat songs like National Anthem, Lolita and Off to the races. I didn't found the feelings here.
The new songs mostly enjoyable. I like God Knows I Try, Art Deco, Salvatore was funny yet she bought it beautifully. Swan Song I thought she gonna pull that vocal range she had like when she sang Shades of Cool, I put my hope to high. The cover song kinda good, it needs some up tempo in chorus so it doesn't sound so bland.
And yes. I don't like the album cover. I prefer this:
