At the time of its release, several critics considered the album Del Rey's best album to date. Upon release, Honeymoon received mostly positive reviews from music critics, appearing on the 2015 best albums lists of many publications. Lyrically, the album touches on themes of tortured romance, resentment, lust, escapism, and violence. The album marked a departure from the more guitar-driven instrumentation of Del Rey's previous album Ultraviolence and a return to the baroque pop of Born to Die and Paradise. It was released on September 18, 2015, by Polydor Records and Interscope Records, and was produced by Del Rey alongside longtime collaborators Rick Nowels and Kieron Menzies. Honeymoon is the fourth studio album by American singer-songwriter Lana Del Rey.
