It would have been nice if you made that comment first instead of just saying you're waiting on their review (PF is known to dislike anything Britney, except for maybe a couple of surprises here and there), so it is SAFE to expect and assume they will trash the album. We also know they prefer your fave over my fave.
I've claimed several times on several threads that I quite like the album. That's your fault for not doing your research before attempted dragging.
They got two things right, Britney is an avant-gardist and she usually is ahead of the typical pop music curve. Secondly she is very adventurous musically. She almost always tries anything once. That's one thing I have loved about her she always seems ready to experiment with all different kind of musical influences.
Question: Didn't Pitchfork praise Blackout? I'm not that concerned for their review. Fatale is merely the bright-pop inversion of Blackout. It's a different extreme of a similar concept.
Metacritic isn't accurate. They leave out a lot of publications. I mean OIDIA her most critically-acclaimed album and Circus better received than Blackout?
I agree, first impressions are not very good. It is better to see Year end and Decade end critic lists for more accuracy
You think she's a shoe in for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance?
Hold It Against Me is her best shot at that IMO. It's her best vocal off the album, I think. She should get at least a nomination, for that category. She won't win. But i'm tired of them snubbing her nominations seriously. It all depends on what Jive submits. They should definitely be smarter about their submissions this go around.
Britney stans are always happy and congratulate on the
success of other artists on ATRL, but when Britney get
positivity from the media, all we get is hate.
That makes Brit one of the very few female pop artists to receive 4 stars by RS alongside others like Madonna, Janet, Cyndi, Rihanna and Gwen. Next time she will match Madonna's 5 star review for Like a Prayer!!
This album absolutely deserves recognition & critical acclaim!!

DigitalSpy gave it a 5/5
They were onto something when they said this was going to be her Ray Of Light
