Paddy Posted May 21, 2023 Share Posted May 21, 2023 Really like the first half of the album, the songs just blend so nicely together. I'm not a big fan of the second half but not because the songs are bad, just to me it is unnecessary for each song to have a little intro that disturbs the flow. Definitely great album! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LipaBlink Posted May 21, 2023 Share Posted May 21, 2023 This album is insanely good.... genuinely loved it so many tracks spoke so much to me, what an insane glow up from High Road!!! Did not know anything about her recents and Only Love and Eat The Acid make sense as singles, by far the standouts for me with Peace and Quiet and Hate Me Harder 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When it's time for critics to give the album another listen, the reviews will be even more favorable than what they are now. And speaking of the streaming numbers from the other thread, as long as she keeps putting out quality, the numbers will only go up on her future releases. I wonder if the album could have some kind of streaming boost if Fantano praises it. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATRL Moderator Ampersand13 Posted May 21, 2023 ATRL Moderator Share Posted May 21, 2023 I’ve been a bit MIA from this thread, still relishing the album in all its disturbing and vulnerable beauty. I plan on posting some in depth thoughts later, but I’ve been truly moved by this album with every listen. Top to bottom it’s nothing short of an artistic triumph and painful reminder of the unarguable injustice she continues to face. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonnonA Posted May 21, 2023 Share Posted May 21, 2023 Still holding out for signed vinyls - but if she doesn’t announce any by end of next week I’ll probably just go ahead with the normal vinyl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zasderfght Posted May 21, 2023 Share Posted May 21, 2023 I listened to this about three times, and each time, Gag Order gets better with each listen. I think it's crazy how people prefer Animal/Cannibal/Warrior Ke$ha to Rainbow/High Road/Gag Order Kesha. Her new music is way more interesting. It's tough to say, but this album might be my favorite Kesha album with Rainbow being 2nd. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ego. Posted May 21, 2023 Share Posted May 21, 2023 After listening to this a few times it really feels like a flawless piece of work. It’s not exactly something I think I’ll have on repeat, but I think that’s more due to it being a raw and heavy topic. Still, given her past trauma and legal situation it feels appropriate she makes an album to address all this and be able to move on to something else 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
