Since Lana Del Rey's massively successful debut, Born To Die, there has been a series of ups and downs for the pop star. She's continued to sell out shows across the world, but on the new music side of things, we've seen countless bits of material leaked over the past two years that's left the Brooklyn-resident "discouraged". However, with her sophomore album, Ultraviolence, looming on the horizon, the vocalist is ready to put all that anxiety past her with the lead single, "West Coast", that sees her back at her nostalgic best with the downtempo and emotionally driven affair. You don't have to look into the hype if you're turned off by it, either, because a track like this one is impossible not to appreciate amidst the buzz it'll surely receive. Look for Ultraviolence to be released later this year.
