"Truly one of the best dance pop albums released this year, don't understand the middling reception on this site" [3]



There isnt one track that is particular bangers and there is one meh track, but the rest is excellent to my eye



This is just another case similar to the newest Swans where sputnik is divided between those who love the album and those who hate it

I'm still so mad about the chorus of the intro track



But overall honestly the production on here rules and is better than Emotion

First listen was enjoyable front to back but not super memorable. Will definitely give it some more listens and see how/if it grows

Like, she's phoning it in a little, but it's still great songwriting and I love the production

this is definitely a grower. don't see why anyone would say she's phoning it in when she's clearly making a conscious effort to change up her sound

It's a mixed bag for me. There are some great, more "experimental (if you wanna call it that)" tracks, but then there's a handful that def sound like she's phoning it in.

RYM is right, Sputnikmusic is wrong - the thread.

I believe the truth is somewhere in the middle.

I myself do not like Carly anymore, she's slightly expired, but her LPs always have a couple of standout songs that are worth keeping on my iPod.

I wish I loved my own writing as much as Johnny loves every single thing he says

ngl you were destined to be a slave to other people's wank from the moment you named yourself after a Mars Volta record, good to know you're still suffering for it

i bet johnny is just the most plain and mild mannered guy irl. he introduces himself as John and politely corrects anyone who calls him otherwise. he gets invited to the dinner party and he'll laugh at every joke the gang throws (to make the appearance) but keeps his zingers to himself. youd let him date your daughter because he's given you no impression that he'd hurt her.

Dear Dads of Sputnikmusic, following the naked toxicity, disdain for needy straight boys and *checks list* collateral homophobia in my review for the album THE LOVELIEST TIME by Carly Rae Jepsen, I regret to say that I shall be cancelling my subscription to all of your daughters out of optically-motivated shame. I am sorry for keeping my zingers to myself, but never forget that you deserved those chuckles. Oh how we chuckled. - jotW

Some songs are really growing on me now, but some songs I'm really growing off* (*Opener & Shy Boy respectively) I remember this happening with Dedicated, I wasn't a fan at all on my first few listens but it really crept up on me once I understood what the album was delivering. Psychedelic Switch is even growing on me, mainly that sexy bass riff though, damn that's good.

It irritates me that this album ends with Stadium Love/Weekend Love, feels anticlimactic. I think Kollage would've been a better closer.
