In in interview with The Spinoff, Lorde described how Blonde inspired her album Melodrama. She stated, “In this sort of post-Blonde landscape, we can all sort of do whatever we want in terms of instrumentation. It’s exciting. I can use guitars and I can get a big gnarly Flume beat and throw it under water.”
