I came here looking for a solution to this as well. I really don’t want to go through the hassle of downgrading iOS just to get the old Lock Screen back but it’s causing genuine anxiety at times. So annoying.

The view of notifications is even more horrible while listening to music, as the artwork takes up the whole screen so multiple notifications for other apps will stack up underneath it… meaning in order to view them all I have to tap on them to make them expand, resulting in a squished layout that looks god awful. On the previous lock screen the music player was minimal and automatically adjusted with notifications displaying underneath it individually (not layered or stacked). Idk if that sounded confusing but it’s the best description I could give, lol.
