An internet sensation shrouded in mystery, this self-styled Hollywood femme fatale arrived weighed down by the publicity. Born Elizabeth Grant, the 25-year-old singer couldn’t live up to the hype when she delivered a widely ridiculed performance on TV’s Saturday Night Live. But her debut album, a dark collection of lush pop confections, is definitely worth checking out. Channeling Nancy Sinatra and David Lynch’s eerie Twin Peaks soundtrack, the undeniably glamorous Del Rey conveys a convincing tragic beauty.Reviews
