Music fans everywhere, rejoice! Lorde‘s new album Pure Heroine (which officially drops next Tuesday) is available in its entirety for free via a stream from our friends at VH1. Lorde is one of the most buzzed-about artists this year, and Pure Heroine is at a level of global anticipation somewhere along the lines of fans’ excitement for Lady Gaga’s ARTPOP, except she doesn’t even have a US website domain and is technically still in New Zealand “grammar school”.
Ever since “Royals” dropped earlier this summer, Lorde has been quietly building a huge fanbase online. She’s managed to already sell out multiple shows during her upcoming worldwide tour (including two shows New York City), gaining attention from pretty much every media outlet, and for good reason. Truly an artist to watch, her blend of breathy pop and spacey rock is undeniably unique, not to mention catchy, and is further complimented by the fact that she’s just 17 years old. Press play above, and you’ll see that Pure Heroine lives up to its name.
