What do you do when your debut album, a goth-pop account of life as a teenage outsider in suburban New Zealand, turns you into a global superstar and generational icon at the age of 16, paving the way for a new wave of awkward, self-conscious pop disruptors to follow in your footsteps? You move to New York, hunker down in the studio with Jack Antonoff, and record, to date, this century’s greatest album-length exploration of the messy transition from teendom to adulthood. You capture heartbreak, hedonism, and the perils of fame with pointillistic detail. You eviscerate your ex and celebrate new love with enough gut-punching lines to launch a thousand Tumblr posts. You perform in a wedding dress on Saturday Night Live. You review onion rings on a secret Instagram account. You wait for the rest of the world to catch up. –Amy Phillips

你会怎么面对这种情况呢？在你的首张专辑中，哥特式流行音乐讲述了十几岁的你在新西兰郊区作为一个局外人的生活，而这张专辑让在你16岁的时候成为了一个超级明星和一代人的偶像，为新一波尴尬的、自觉的流行音乐颠覆者跟随你的脚步铺平了道路。你搬到纽约，和Jack Antonoff一起坐在录音棚里，录制了本世纪以来关于探索从青少年到成年的混乱过渡过程的最棒的专辑。专辑用点彩的细节捕捉到了心碎、享乐主义和名利的危险，你在Tumblr上发布了上千条关于你的前任的帖子，然后用足够多的狠话来庆祝新的恋情。你穿着婚纱在Saturday Night Live（周六夜现场）上表演，你在一个秘密的Instagram账号上评论着洋葱圈美食，你等待着另外的人从世界上其他地方而来。
