Lana Del Rey – Born To Die (LP Vinyl)
Product Details
Born To Die arrived at a particular cultural crossroads, when the internet was rewriting the rules of how an artist could be discovered and mythologized simultaneously. Del Rey had already built a devoted following through early YouTube uploads before a major label deal was in place, and "Video Games" became one of the defining viral moments of its era, spreading through blogs and message boards the way a great bootleg once traveled through tape trading networks.
Vinyl LP pressing. 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'.
