So, the official word is out on Lana Del Rey’s debut album, ‘Born To Die’. It will be released via Polydor on 30 Jan, preceded a week earlier by Del Rey’s next single, also the album’s title track, which will come complete with remixes by Damon Albarn, Woodkid and Clams Casino. Del Rey herself has billed the LP as “a homage to true love and a tribute to living life on the wild side”, which, given the tenor of past singles ‘Video Games’ and ‘Blue Jeans’, sounds just about right.
To accompany the news, here’s Lana, nestling peevishly in the arms of a tattooed extra, in the ‘Born To Die’ trailer. The proper video, which will apparently feature a tiger, is expected out soon.
