I was inspired by Tori Amos’ album ‘Strange Little Girls’ in which she covered songs traditionally written and recorded by male artists, but re-contextualised them with a female P.O.V.

 

The tracklist itself consists a mix of Lana’s musical inspirations, as well as songs from her modern contemporaries that I thought would be a perfect fit for her style and sound good. I envisioned for the production style to be a crossover between Ultraviolence and NFR, with a hint of Honeymoon. 

 

There are plenty of Lana-like Easter eggs present within the song titles and lyrical content
