Lorde - Virgin (LP, 2025 Green Vinyl)

This LP is pressed on Green vinyl.

Dive into the raw and introspective world of Lorde with her highly anticipated fourth studio album, "Virgin," released on June 27, 2025, under Universal Music New Zealand Limited. This 11-track collection marks Lorde's return to the pop fray, capturing the messy, angsty essence of late-20s life with a sound that harks back to the digital, physical texture of her critically acclaimed album "Melodrama."

"Virgin" is a bold departure from Lorde's previous work, with the artist turning her critical eye towards herself. The album opens with the pulsating energy of "Hammer," the third and final single released prior to the album, and closes with the hauntingly beautiful "David." In between, Lorde explores themes of self-reflection, vulnerability, and growth through tracks like "Man of the Year," "Favourite Daughter," and "Broken Glass."

The album's title track, "Virgin," is a stark departure from the pop sound that Lorde is known for, featuring a raw, unfiltered sound that showcases her vocal prowess. Meanwhile, "GRWM" and "Clearblue" offer a glimpse into Lorde's introspective side, with lyrics that delve into the complexities of modern relationships and self-discovery.

With "Virgin," Lorde has crafted an album that is as gritty as it is tender, as erratic as it is convincing. It's a testament to her growth as an artist and a bold statement of intent for the future. Whether you're a longtime fan or a newcomer to her music, "Virgin" is sure to leave a lasting impression.
