Music Monday: Lana Del Rey's Ultraviolence


The queen of melodramatic Lana Del Rey has made her comeback with the third album Ultraviolence. Featuring tracks like "Money Power Glory" and "Pretty When You Cry", once again, she expresses her graceful despair by walking hand-in-hand with Dan Auerbach from The Black Keys, creating a dark yet beautiful composition. 

The single "West Coast" is all about soft rock meets a little bit of downtempo with a touch of blues, making a series of bewitching melodies. And needless to say, "Shades of Cool" is a piece of love and pleasure presented in the form of transcendent self-destruction.
