Prefix mag
Lust for Life is indeed a much more optimistic and accessible record than predecessor Honeymoon, a record so resolutely downbeat it almost made Nick Cave sound like Kidz Bop in comparison.

Lana Del Rey's 'Lust for Life' album could use more life.

Pop Matters
Lust for Life postures itself above all as Lana Del Rey's most optimistic, political, and globally conscious record to date.

Ear Buddy
Del Rey peddles a brand of nostalgic Americana gone wrong, with music that is, on the surface glossy and fun.

Pretty Much Amazing
Few active pop stars are as fiercely on-brand as Lana Del Rey. If the signature style of America’s 21-century chanteuse isn’t your cup of tea, then steer clear of her fourth album Lust for Life. But if you count yourself among Del Rey’s disciples, get excited. Lust for Life is a whole lotta Lana.

Alt Citizen
There are essentially two camps in the Lana Del Rey fandom: those who believe that the slow burn of 2014’s Ultraviolence was her superlative sound, and those who still hold out for the beat-infused pitch-perfect pop of the Born to Die/Paradise era. Lust for Life, is for the latter.

Lust for Life is Del Rey’s fifth studio album, with 17 tracks on the gem, and it is her longest album to date. She continues to carry her old soul and ageless aesthetic from album to album, and Lust for Life is no exception.

Crack Magazine
Where once Lana Del Rey’s world was a small as the circumference of the muscular arms that encircled her, now it’s as big as the fears that rattle us all – and it’s this widening of her vision that makes Lust for Life her most compelling LP yet.

Lust for Life doesn’t ultimately deliver anything quite so dramatic, but it is enough of a departure from what’s gone before to suggest that it heralds the opening of a new chapter.

She may be smiling, decked in a floral crown and posed in front of an old pickup truck like some sort of pop country clone, but Lana Del Rey is as moody as ever on her new album, Lust For Life.

There’s still plenty of Del Rey’s signature frost to be found on “Lust for Life,” which isn’t about to transpire over a supersized 16 songs and 72 minutes without some trademark indulgence in the big chill.
