I guess it's all relative

Every bad Taylor Swift/Coldplay album needs a 4/5 staff review

It is known

Dancing With Our Hands Tied is so good. That one has always stood out to me.

Only redeeming thing about Taylor is her political statements

I’m with you. Probably my least favorite Taylor Swift album, but I enjoyed it. Sometimes in a guilty pleasure way.

Album Rating: 4.0

Good review. I think we're more-or-less on the same page with this album, but I think I liked it a bit more than you. It's still her most complex and experimental in terms of songwriting and tone. I get the feeling people took this album/image far more seriously than Swift did and she was (rather overtly at times) just having fun with it. I touched on this a lot in my own review, but I think what most people reacted negatively to was the "inauthenticity" of the persona change, but I don't think Swift was ever implying she was taking the persona seriously, and videos like LWYMMD suggest the opposite. It's almost like instead of really playing the 'bad girl' she was playing others' ridiculously caricatured notion of her as a 'bad girl.' Blank Space was basically the prototype for this entire album, but Reputation pushed the experimentation much further than that song did.

Album Rating: 4.0

Well said, agreed with every word. Many of the songs here, especially LWYMMD, almost come across as a parody of the image people plaster over here. The album is very tongue-in-cheek and it's a blast, which might just be the whole point. She's using the negative perception to her own advantage to create a pop album that's really unlike anything her peers have done.

Album Rating: 4.0

Yeah, I can think of any musical artists that have really done this concept in general. I can think of those that have reacted to fame, and I can certainly think of plenty who have adopted other personas, but I can't think of one who's made a parody of the persona created by certain critics.

Took me 3 years but I FINALLY FOUND the sequence with which this album makes sense. Ima share it:



...Ready for It?

End Game

Gorgeous

Delicate

King of My Heart

Getaway Car

This Is Why We Can't Have Nice Things

Look What You Made Me Do

I Did Something Bad

Don't Blame Me

Dress

Call It What You Want

New Year's Day



Try it

Good review btw. Can I just add, I came to looove this album after a bad first, second, third impression. The thing about TS songs is that they slowly change the way I experience things. And they change the way I hear them. That's why TS is the anti CRJ and vice versa

Good review, trash album

would really love it if taylor stopped writing music about the haters.

Album Rating: 1.0

No. I just know garbage when I see it. The review is solid but I absolutely think this album represents what is wrong with pop music. Bland beats, horrible attempts at rapping, relying on guest features to save the album, still trying to act like she is somehow an underdog when she's just another snake in the garden. Nothing about this album is authentic Taylor Swift, it is Taylor Swift trying to sound like other artists and failing miserably to reinvent herself.

No it’s not like the other Taylor Swift albums, but it does have one of her best conventional pop type songs - “Getaway Car.” That one belongs with others I love like “Paper Rings” from Lover, the title songs from Speak Now and Fearless, and “Shake It Off” from 1989.
