Lorde Album: Pure Heroine

 

Pure Heroine is the debut studio album by New Zealand singer-songwriter Lorde. It was first released on 27 September 2013 with an extended version of the album being released on 13 December 2013. Recording for the album began in 2012 with producer Joel Little after being signed to Universal Music at the age of twelve by A&R scout Scott Maclachlan, with several songs being originally released on the The Love Club EP, which was released in early 2013. After the critical acclaim of her EP and its lead single "Royals", the two eventually re-entered the studio and began co-writing and producing more material.

The lead single, "Royals", was a critical and commercial success, topping the charts in Canada, Ireland, the United Kingdom and the United States, where Lorde became the first solo New Zealand act to top the Billboard Hot 100 chart and the youngest act to do so since Tiffany's 1987 single "I Think We're Alone Now".

The album received numerous accolades and was featured on several critics year-end album albums lists, in which it topped "FasterLouder" and "The New York Times" list. Pure Heroine is also nominated for Best Pop Vocal Album at the 56th Annual Grammy Awards, while "Royals" is nominated for Record of the Year, Song of the Year and Best Pop Solo Performance. The album was also noted for its impact on present day pop and its challenge on modern day artists.
