This is good but honestly not as excited by this as folklore. It's a more monotone and you can feel the length far easier. Still, when it hits it hits

This is what happens when the world gets locked down and all the horse girls can't go to the barn

Taylor Shit

scathing

Album Rating: 4.0

"so is Taylor's fanbase especially shitty or is it just a product of there being so many of them?"

The latter. I've been a part of other fanbases that were great in the beginning when it was a (relatively) small community but completely turned toxic once they got large, even with things unrelated to music. The problem is that not only do larger numbers attract more a-holes but they also attract the loud ones that drown out everyone else. Multiply that by a fanbase as big as Taylor's and it's just a chorus of a-holes.

Y'all speaking trash about her fan base as if this thread has been a loving space of positivity and reasoned discussion smh.

Ok simp

Sputnik user solrage: "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."

Swifties: "SPUTNIK HATES WOMEN IMMA KICK YOU IN THE DICK 30 TIMES"

Lucman: "you guys are exactly the same smh"

Album Rating: 2.8

""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"

@solrage tbh I share most of this perspective and think we might agree more than you implied; would definitely be interested to read your rev as such! (+fix'd, cheers)

"I like how they're giving our boy Hugh shit for giving it a 2.9 instead of a 3 though, though I may disagree with their motives"

Gonna be completely honest here, it was going to be a 2.5 but I thought people would find a 2.9 more irritating

Album Rating: 2.0

it is a weirdly off-putting score



like how a 4.4 feels higher than a 4.5 to me

Lol you right

the fact that it says "good" under the 2.9 is the icing on the cake

lmao

Album Rating: 4.0

Not a "Swiftie" by any means but this is not by any means a 2.9 lmao. Agreed with much of the review, but this is objectively not even an average record. 3.2 at leats. The amount of love, care, and passion put into it, as well as how rich it is sonically...disagree with this one mate!

bet its a 1

"The amount of love, care, and passion put into it"

lmao i love when people make these types of arguments
