Review: Halsey – BADLANDS

| Album

I first stumbled across this amazing artist with such an amazing, talented voice while watching the movie, 'The Huntsman: Winter's War'. The song, 'Castle' caught my attention right away. I felt drawn into another world and as I listened, I had to have this song and proceeded to purchase a copy of 'Badlands'.

Halsey is Ashley Nicolette Frangipane, an American singer-songwriter, who started her songwriting career at 17. In 2014, she signed her first contract with Astralwerks and released her debut EP, titled 'Room 93'

Unfortunately, I did not have the best of luck, trying to purchase this album through her store, and after many attempts trying to contact them, through twitter or even their support centre. I decided that I'd just purchase it through iTunes.

However, once I got this copy, I proceeded to listen to it, over and over again. Any Lana Del Rey fans in the house?  I could easily compare this sound, yet on a, very unique level of their own. 

Then I fell totally in love with this track, 'Gasoline' it totally blew me away and I was transformed. 

Each song has a unique edge, a style that sets you in motion and completes your mood, placing your imagination in new surroundings, that keep you entertained all throughout the album.
