on her stirring debut album, new york singer-songwriter lizzy grant and most likely to succeed in 2012 transforms into the more bombastically-named lana del rey and absolutely wallows in it. the songs are husky and sensual in a way that hits the sweet spot cat power has abdicated since 'the greatest'. 'born to die' the album is a collection of tracks about which lana says "the songs i've written are an homage to true love and a tribute to living life on the wild side." the songs are atmospheric, orchestral retro-'60s-sounding pop that showcases her torchy image and sensuously husky singing style.
