The Weeknd's 18-track record, featuring collabs with Daft Punk, Kendrick Lamar, and Lana Del Rey, is here.
Earlier this week Abel Tesfaye teased new LP Starboy via his bloody short film MANIA, but this is the first chance we've had to sit down and devour the whole thing.
The record features plenty of fresh music, plus already-heard "False Alarm", Lana Del Rey co-write "Party Monster", and Daft Punk collabs "I Feel It Coming" and "Starboy".
