REVIEW :: 'Pure Heroine' by LORDE

(source)
THE WAIT IS OVER.

Lorde's new album Pure Heroine has
finally been released. And it's pretty freaking awesome.

If you're on the Internet fairly often (and follow the right people on Tumblr), you've probably seen leaked audio posts floating around. I personally have only listened to two of them other than Royals, so I'll be reviewing this from a somewhat fresh standpoint.

Pure Heroine is the opposite of flashy and loud. Subdued and simplified are what really personify and describe Lorde's musical forte: heavy beats, slight vocal harmony, stripped away lyrics, and clear notes. Though one can say a lot of the songs on the album sound similar, but I feel that there's enough variety while staying true to her style. Glory and Gore and Still Sane are both evidence of that.

Final verdict: Pure Heroine has its own specific vibe that permeates through most of the tracks, but is a great start-up album for a newly famous artist.
