Didn't have a particularly good review in my local paper. It's more of the same, so if you already love her you'll love it, but it's not gonna win her any new fans. She's consistent - I'll give her that. But that's not really what artistry is about.

I do like the album and it is beautiful to listen to, but I prefer Ultraviolence.

top 3 if not the best .. i can't wait for more metacritic scores to be on the site, it better not go below 80

It's a great record, but not the record of the year

But I really, really like it

I'm going to listen to it from start to finish right now.

How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful easily.

You won't regret it, I hope.

Artistry is actually staying true to your artistic identity and not trying to appeal to a different or bigger audience just for the sake of it. Writing for an audience in mind is not what art should be about.

I haven't listened to a record that was better than Honeymoon this year, maybe that will change by the end of the year.

No. It's worse than Ultraviolence, and I hated Ultraviolence too (except Ultraviolence, Shades of cool and Old Money).

Born to die and Paradise >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

No

No but it's still good.

Without a doubt.

It's very good. Kinda boring and lacks some dynamism but still enjoyable

Maybe. Not sure yet. There have been a surprising number of great albums this year imo

Sometimes I Sit and Think, and Sometimes I Just Sit >>>

Yes.

but ULTRAVIOLENCE will always be better. Always.

To me, not at all.
