Maybe it's good for her standards but it's nowhere near being the most acclaimed pop album of the year.

CHVRCHES new album is only one point below Lana's, but it has a third less reviews (Pitchfork and a few other major outlets haven't published their reviews yet).

It's also a bit inaccurate to label Honeymoon as purely a pop record.

Who's more acclaimed? receipts?

How do you know it's going up tho? Most album scores tumble with more reviews.

People should stop referring to Lana as pop.

Her album isn't pop music and it's pretty bad from everything I've heard.

Just because Badlands isn't on metacritic.

No, it's not.

The Magic Whip has more and it's basically pop, sooo... No.

EDIT: And it has more critics, too.

lana is pop, emotion is more acclaimed

But I thought she was alternative ???

It's not.

metascore isn't everything, watch emotion obliterate honeymoon in end of year lists. it will be THE pop album to pick i promise u

The best album ever. When will our poor and talentless faves?

Bookmarked.

but an album with acclaim but no sales is usually forgotten.

Those with acclaim and sales stay on people's tognue.

We'll see.

Emotion is so overrated, the fact that the best song is the second single, which is not that good, makes me doubt about the high score it got on Metacritic. Lana deserves her 79, this album is excellent.

Nope Foot and all of Dawns relises are better

It’s better than any stefani ablum tho
