    What ties it all together is a brooding intensity that fits perfectly with The Hunger Games' dystopic mood.

    Standouts are plentiful, with Lorde herself contributing both the propulsive centerpiece "Yellow Flicker Beat" and a cover of Bright Eyes' "Ladder Song." "Yellow Flicker Beat" also gets the remix treatment from Kanye West, his more minimal reworking of the song credited as "Flicker."

    [A] lovingly crafted, adventurous soundtrack that easily stands on its own merits.
