Glory and Gore is a song by New Zealand singer Lorde from her debut studio album Pure Heroine, released in 2013. Written with producer Joel Little, the track paired minimal electronic production with lyrics about fame, violence and competition, which helped it stand out from the album's more reflective songs. Short excerpts later circulated widely on social platforms, where editors reused the darkest, most atmospheric section for fan videos and aesthetic edits. Its continued use comes from that contrast between a calm vocal delivery and lyrics that suggest danger and ambition.
