Lana Del Rey is recording an album. Another one! She’s like an album machine. Albeit one that produces albums at a steady and not overly prolific rate. I guess a better thing to say would have been that she’s like a recording artist of somewhere around average speed when it comes to getting music out. But that doesn’t quite roll off the tongue in the same way.
The machine-like new album will apparently be called ‘Honeymoon’, and currently has nine songs on it, including a cover of ‘Don’t Let Me Be Misunderstood’.
Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter, Del Rey said: “[The new album is] very different from the last one and similar to the first two, ‘Born To Die’ and ‘Paradise’. I finished my last one [‘Ultraviolence’] in March and released it in June, and I had a follow-up idea. It’s growing into something I really like. I’m kind of enjoying sinking into this more noirish feel for this one. It’s been good”.
She also recorded two songs for Tim Burton’s new film, ‘Big Eyes’. Have you seen it? It looks really good, but I don’t trust Tim Burton anymore, so if you could let me know what it’s like, that would be great.
