Highly anticipated 2012 debut album from the New York-based singer, songwriter and performer. She has described herself as a \"gangsta Nancy Sinatra\" and cites Britney Spears, Thomas Newman and Bruce Springsteen as her musical influences. Lana Del Rey's direct influences were visual as well as musical; David Lynch, soundtracks for `50s black and white movies, the whirring sound of the Ferris at Coney Island, fame itself. She lived in a New Jersey trailer park and decked her homestead in flags, streamers and seasonally inappropriate Christmas lights. Like these things she loves, the album sparkles with color and vitality. Includes the hit singles 'Video Games' and 'Blue Jeans'.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size:12px;\"\u003eTracklist\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size:12px;\"\u003eA1        Born To Die\u003cbr\u003e\r\nA2        Off To The Races\u003cbr\u003e\r\nA3        Blue Jeans\u003cbr\u003e\r\nA4        Video Games\u003cbr\u003e\r\nA5        Diet Mountain Dew\u003cbr\u003e\r\nA6        National Anthem\u003cbr\u003e\r\nB1        Dark Paradise\u003cbr\u003e\r\nB2        Radio\u003cbr\u003e\r\nB3        Carmen\u003cbr\u003e\r\nB4        Million Dollar Man\u003cbr\u003e\r\nB5        Summertime Sadness\u003cbr\u003e\r\nB6        This Is What Makes Us Girls\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cspan style=\"font-size:12px;\"\u003e*Audio and\/or tracklist may vary slightly from the vinyl version.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size:12px;\"\u003eLabel: INTERSCOPE RECORDS\u003cbr\u003e\r\nCatalog: 1642501\u003cbr\u003e\r\nRel.

The album finds the band delivering a wryly nostalgic performance, giving a nod to their punk roots as they embrace the rugged earnestness of the Rust Belt with songs about broken hearts, loneliness, and self-doubt. While a lot of bands have a tendency to mature as they go on, like growing up, it's a tricky process full of pitfalls and dead ends. Change too much and your reach could end up exceeding your grasp; don't change enough and you're stuck in a cul de sac of arrested development, treading water on album after album. Fortunately for the Menzingers, they pull off the process beautifully, creating an album full of emotion that, while definitely feeling different than their past work, still shows signs of the band they were before. With its combination of hopeful energy and plaintive earthiness, On the Impossible Past is a mature and emotionally deep record that will make old fans glad they stuck around, and new fans out of anyone already on board with fellow Americana punks the Gaslight Anthem. ~ Gregory Heaney\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Punk\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 02\/21\/2012\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Menzingers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44587904499945,"sku":"FKICOL-QGN3-00","price":30.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/3523\/8633\/files\/The-Menzingers-On-the-Impossible-Past_ugYsi.jpg?v=1759208229"},{"product_id":"archers-of-loaf-vee-vee","title":"VEE VEE","description":"Archers Of Loaf: Eric Johnson, Eric Bachmann, Mark Price, Matt Gentling.\nRecorded in Chicago, Illinois in August 1994.\nAudio Remasterer: Bob Weston .\nAfter the release of their classic debut, Icky Mettle, and the excellent follow-up EP, Vs. the Greatest of All Time, it was clear that Archers of Loaf were a band that had hit the ground running and never seemed likely to stop. On Vee Vee, the second full-length offering from the Chapel Hill indie innovators, the band deftly avoids anything even resembling a sophomore slump by returning with a kind of gnarly ferocity, which the quartet uses to great effect as they bang and bash their way through an album of beautifully misshapen and unpolished indie rock. Armed with nothing more than some ugly guitar chords, big ideas, and a brash attitude, Archers of Loaf make the bold move of using the album to bang more dents into their sound, rather than refine it. While this would be a step backwards for anyone else, the band has a talent for effortlessly making the unpolished seem charming, as they bash their way through tracks like \"Nostalgia\" and \"The Worst Has Yet to Come.\" Songs like these, as well as quintessential (and more or less perfect) '90s jam \"Harnessed in Slums\" found Archers of Loaf proving time and time again that what really matters in music is heart, sweat, and grit, and that if you have those on your side, everything else just kind of falls into place. ~ Gregory Heaney\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 02\/21\/2012\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Archers Of Loaf","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44587929469161,"sku":"MK51OA-MM6B-00","price":26.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/3523\/8633\/files\/archers-of-loaf-vee-vee_uEFEg.jpg?v=1757349827"},{"product_id":"diana-ross-diana-ross-1976","title":"DIANA ROSS (1976):","description":"Audio Mixer: Russ Terrana.\nLiner Note Authors: George Solomon; Andrew Skurow.\nPhotographer: Victor Skrebneski.\nThis self-titled release, issued in February 1976, was Diana Ross' first album since December 1973's Last Time I Saw Him. It followed Ross' starring role in the Berry Gordy-directed Mahogany. That film's theme, a sweeping Gerry Goffin\/Michael Masser ballad sung by Ross, topped Billboard's Adult Contemporary and Hot 100 charts; though it appeared on the Mahogany soundtrack, it was also included here and leads a set that's as diverse as Last Time I Saw Him, with a total of nine songs involving 16 songwriters. \"I Thought It Took a Little Time (But Today I Fell in Love),\" a stately ballad with a commanding chorus, was a Top Five Adult Contemporary hit but wasn't nearly as successful with R\u0026amp;B radio. \"Love Hangover,\" with its extended lead-in and hurtling and thumping yet graceful groove, was Ross' entry into the disco market, where she proved to be a natural fit, and it not only topped the dance chart but the R\u0026amp;B and pop ones as well. \"Kiss Me Now\" is another highlight, a frisky, showbiz jazz number where Ross feels free enough to throw in a quick impression of Louis Armstrong. That covers the album's first side. Side two is much more focused, generally sticking to contemporary soul. \"One Love in My Lifetime,\" yet another one of Ross' Top Ten R\u0026amp;B singles, is the most notable of the five songs, with the Ashford \u0026amp; Simpson-penned \"Ain't Nothin' But a Maybe\" a close second. Subsequently mired in a couple unfocused patchwork recordings, Ross wouldn't make another truly fine album until The Boss, written and produced in its entirety by Ashford \u0026amp; Simpson. ~ Andy Kellman\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: CD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 2\/21\/2012\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Diana Ross","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44589758808297,"sku":"1PUYB2-D6MX-00","price":36.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/3523\/8633\/files\/diana-ross-diana-ross-1976_KywSA.jpg?v=1759358812"},{"product_id":"bill-evans-explorations","title":"Explorations","description":"Bill Evans Trio: Bill Evans (piano); Scott LaFaro (bass); Paul Motian (drums).\nRecorded at Bell Sound Studios, New York, New York on February 2, 1961.

The intrepid nature of his improvisations and the edgy interactivity of his trio echo the album's title in tracks like the expansive \"Elsa,\" \"Israel,\" and the Miles Davis composition \"Nardis.\"\nEvans is also a master of the ballad, and he shapes tracks such as \"Haunted Heart\" and the shimmering, evocative \"Elsa\" into exercises of grace and sensitivity. There is a fair share of swing here too, with the up-tempo \"Sweet and Lovely\" and \"Beautiful Love.\" Evan's imaginative, meticulous stylings flow through every piece, and it is difficult to resist the balance of intelligence, tenderness, groove and mood that EXPLORATIONS achieves.\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRSD Date: DDD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 02\/21\/2012\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Bill Evans","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44594520785129,"sku":"ZPVTGB-IP8B-00","price":26.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/3523\/8633\/files\/bill-evans-explorations_WcyHl.jpg?v=1740785966"},{"product_id":"gg-allin-the-murder-junkies-terror-in-america","title":"Terror in America","description":"\u003cp\u003eTerror in America is a Records \u0026amp; LPs from GG Allin \u0026amp; The Murder Junkies\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInternal ID: JITRE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 02\/21\/2012\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GG Allin \u0026 The Murder Junkies","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44597878522089,"sku":"9IXMMA-BGN4-00","price":27.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/3523\/8633\/files\/gg-allin-the-murder-junkies-terror-in-america_psfDR.jpg?v=1744936062"},{"product_id":"fun-some-nights","title":"SOME NIGHTS","description":"Fun.'s debut album Aim and Ignite was an interesting blend of seemingly divergent styles topped by a healthy dose of grandiose ambition and performed with a precise abandon. The trio made an album that was truly progressive and also super catchy and fun. The follow-up, Some Nights, ramps up the ambition and sonic bombast, but also manages to be even more powerful and impressive. While writing and planning the album, singer Nate Ruess, guitarist Jack Antonoff, and multi-instrumentalist Andrew Dost were heavily influenced by both the sound and scope of Kanye West's My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy and made every attempt to achieve something similar, even to the point of hiring that album's co-producer Jeff Bhasker to produce and craft beats for them. (Also Emile Haynie, who has worked with Eminem among others) Though the album has more of a hip-hop influence than Aim and Ignite did, there are still large doses of Queen and ELO coursing through the band's blood, both in the machine-crafted vocal harmonies and the ornate bigness of the sound. The album is overloaded with strings and horns, backing vocals, keyboards, and programmed drums surrounding Ruess like a clamoring crowd, but never drowning out his innately sincere vocals and painfully honest lyrics. He has the kind of voice that could cut through any amount of noise, not by using volume but honesty. Even when he's fed through Auto-Tune, you know he's telling you the truth all the time. On songs like the lead single \"We Are Young\" or the rollicking \"All Alone,\" he provides a very human core that grounds things even as the music builds to ornate crescendos. Indeed, the album is really, really big sounding and could easily have ended up collapsing under its own weight and pretension, but the opposite happens and Some Nights takes flight instead. The songs are both anthemic and human-sized, the heartfelt words and naked emotions are never buried, and the music is uplifting, not overpowering. The trio has crafted a record that measures up to My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy musically and delivers enough emotional charge to power a small town for a month. It's an impressive achievement and Fun. deserves every bit of acclaim that comes its way because of it. ~ Tim Sendra\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 02\/21\/2012\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Fun","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44598650568937,"sku":"X90FIY-J931-00","price":31.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/3523\/8633\/files\/fun-some-nights_nQAXu.jpg?v=1759295380"},{"product_id":"grimes-visions","title":"Visions","description":"\u003cp\u003ePerforming under the name Grimes, Claire Boucher's third solo release follows in her cold, ethereal style of lo-fi electronic music, commonly referred to as witch house.
