After a silence filled with inner searching and psychedelic impulses, Lorde sits down with Zane Lowe<\/strong><\/a> to release the weight of the years and open the doors of Virgin, her fourth studio album. In a raw and luminous conversation, the New Zealand artist dissects the foundations of her new music, the ghosts of teenage fame, and the moment when everything was about to fall apart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
