Lorde first performed "Ribs" and "400 Lux" at the Greenwich Village club Le Poisson Rouge. Consequence of Sound noted how Lorde's minimal production allowed her to sing in any melody, layering them over one another to create a choral effect. "Ribs" is a deep house-influenced electronica and electropop song, which starts ambiently and, according to Jason Lipshutz of Billboard, features an "exhausted-sounding Lorde growing more frantic with each passing second," with lyrics that include the singer discovering her maturity and "grown-up problems." In "Ribs", she references Canadian indie rock band Broken Social Scene's 2002 song " Lover's Spit". Lorde's vocals span a range of B 2 to G ♯ 5 and its chord progression follows a sequence of A–E–F ♯m 7–C ♯m 7. "Ribs" is composed in the key of E major with a tempo of 128 beats per minute. "Ribs" was written on the day of the January 2013 Auckland Laneway Festival. Lorde said ageing, which she described as "a big stress" of hers, and "this big party I had when my parents went away" inspired her. Problems playing this file? See media help.
