Before Video Games blew up last summer Lana Del Rey was a virtual unknown, now she’s one of the most tweeted about musical artists, with a hotly anticipated debut album and a pair of lips that garner as many column inches as her distinctive sound.

Released this week Born to Die is set to be one of the year’s best albums. Lana’s sultry vocals are both haunting and vampy; displaying an impressive range that many doubted after her recent Saturday Night Live performance. Skip to 'Off to the Races' and marvel at a full orchestra juxtaposed with rapid machine gun fire.
