Very well-written review that has a lot in it I wholly disagree with, but fundamentally on a philosophical level and in the specifics regarding this album and Swift's indie-folk style. I think the biggest thing I disagree with is the notion that we never had to engage with her work as "serious music." In a sense, maybe Swift never made "serious music," but she's always made serious music. The former is wholly superficial, achievable by any adolescent who's ever picked up an instrument and flatted a third and started writing sad/depressing lyrics. It's easy to do. The kind of genuinely serious music, the kind Swift writes, is the kind that takes actual talent and craft. The only difference is that now she's making serious music out of "serious music."
My biggest concern is that she has sacrificed some extremely appealing aspects of her craft in order to do that: the melodic hooks that SHE used to "breathe like spare oxygen," as well as more dynamic forms and stylistic variation. If there's a complaint to be made here it's that Swift is sacrificing too much to kowtow to what are ultimately limited (and limiting) aesthetic principles. It's probably not accidental that she want from writing an album every two years to now writing 2 albums in the same year in this style: It's because the style is extremely easy to do, especially for someone with her songwriting facility. It probably shouldn't reflect well on the genre in general, but I doubt many will notice or care.
I may put this into my own review soon and, FWIW, the "4" rating is only provisional after a single listen.

Also, a minor error in this sentence: "the way these songs clutch onto the same shared hook (you’ll know the one) suggests exactly the kind of target audience be easily pleased by very little." I think you missed a "that will" in front of "be."

"c'mon
@metacritic
it's obvious that sputnik has a personal vendetta against Taylor (and other female artists, for that matter) by now. Shouldn't be counted for meta anymore."
"i want sputnik to explain why an album filled with ringtone like songs made purely for tiktok can manage to get a 3/5 but taylor’s albums with deep meaningful songs that have substance get shat on?"
Sputnik pls explain

Sputnik really woke up today and decided to attack Taylor Swift, Jack Antonoff, Aaron Dessner, and Swifties who are apparently “easily pleased by very little”. Imagine attacking some of Taylor’s best work like this. But, then again I would never trust a source called ‘Sputnik’
