Yeah I really think in 5 years time this album is going to be held in a very different light… let them cast stones. The fans are happy… that's the main thing.

This is so unserious. Can someone enlighten me about Sputnik and how/why they are allowed to have multiple reviews count towards metacritic? :deadbanana2:

 

Watch Taylor Nation intervene and have them forever banned from counting towards any scores tho :lmao:

I miss the days when 70's were considered high for an album. Critics have gotten WAY too safe with certain artists.

they gave her a 0.5

Funny how swiftys have no problem with one extreme (perfect 100 scores) but they do with the low scores. :huh:

Yeah, in 5 years time fans will have 9 new albums and won't have to pretend to like this one.

Watch this album be a turning point in music journalism and the end of poptimism. I welcome it tbh, because everyone and their grandma were getting universal acclaim in the past half a decade that it was impossible to tell which albums were worth checking out and which weren't

We've definitely gone to the other extreme. 

 

Back in 2013 when Beyonce got an 85 for ST that score was literally unheard of in the pop scene, and that was such a monumental release.

 

Nowadays people get 80 scores simply for existing. Music journalism is in need of a shake up. 

I remember this very well. Things have changed so drastically. Like it's always the extreme it's never actually fair.

It's actually a 1 since it's 0,5 out of 5. :clap3:

I just realized, .5 is 5%. I was thinking it's a 50. Lol.

It's an 8/10 for me.

 

The first volume is spectacular and the second one doesn't quite stick the landing.

 

If this album came out in 2022 (instead of Midnights) we'd be seeing a different kind of critical reaction.

 

Anyways, 78 is a good enough score… I'll reserve getting my knives out unless it somehow falls into the 60's.

It's pretty much across the board (except for people who have always been considered a joke to critics like Katy, Bieber, JLo, etc)
