Jul 24, 2020This album is truly a breath taking work of art, Sad, Beautiful, Tragic as an entire album. She fits this new vibe and genre so well, as always. Her voice couldn’t be more fitting for the Indie/Alternative feel we’re getting. Taylor is so talented and from country, to pop, to alternative, her genius songwriting is at play perfectly.

Jul 24, 2020Taylor Swift’s songwriting is honestly one of the best of any generation. In the album, she was able to paint a story so deep and mystical that it will take you a couple of times to be able to understand which I love. She is a poet. Looking forward for more albums like this! Rock Taylor I am waiting for you.

Jul 24, 2020after all Swift’s albums, I think I could say that folklore is the best and most personal she ever made, so far. The lyrics, the melodies, the stories behind songs, all are captured in beautiful way. It’s calmer, simplier, but more rich and tasteful than 7 previous albums. Great job Taylor!
-
Jul 24, 2020Definitely Taylor’s best album to date. The song writing is amazing. I didn’t know what to expect going in, but wow, this blew me a way, it seems like she can conquer any genre. While her two most recent albums Reputation and Lover weren’t amazing, this one was. Thanks Taylor!

Jul 24, 2020This is the best album I have ever heard. I felt like I was transported into an oil painting by Diego Velasquez. Her vocals were simple, but beautiful.

Jul 24, 2020Best album by Taylor so far. From the lyrics to vocals to production- perfection!
-
Jul 24, 2020Impactante. O melhor da carreira. Taylor em sua versão alternativa combina seu já conhecido talento lírico com um experimentalismo musical novo para sua discografia. Com uma consistência rara, não deixa a desejar em nada, e entrega todos o sentimentalismo que o álbum pede e promete.
-

Jul 24, 2020Taylor made an album that deserves to be listened to front to back. Her songwriting skills shine with metaphors that touch back to many of her earlier songs then all come full circle into this new story that is folklore.
-
Jul 24, 2020As a Taylor stan it’s kind obvious I adore her work but with Folklore she crossed ever line in all beautiful ways. Taylor deserve all the recognition especially in this work of art, personally my favorites albums of her 13 years on this industry are the ones that tells you something, takes you away to a unique storytelling experience.

Jul 24, 2020Taylor is at her artistic peak in this album — if not has been for the past 15 years of her career. Her ability to deliver vulnerable emotions so well both lyrically and sonically is proven once again in this album.
-
Jul 24, 2020Her best lyrics, most mature album. Can’t stop listening. Every time I listen I have a new favorite. I can’t decide if it’s my favorite it album of hers, you can’t even compare it to anything else. Her ability to reinvent herself is incredible.

Awards & Rankings

UncutAug 13, 2020It's a sharp turn to the left for Swift and a fine reminder that she is more than just a gleaming pop phenomenon, but a remarkable songwriter too. [Oct 2020, p.36]
-
Aug 7, 2020A modern-folk masterpiece which finds her moving from her previous pop bangers into stunningly simple yet sharp melodies, ‘folklore’ will be going down in Swiftie history as one of her most unexpected, and undoubtedly one of her best.
-
Aug 3, 2020These 16 tracks (17 on the deluxe version) play out quite pleasurably in their entirety, the joins between Swift, Dessner and Antonoff ultimately only of niche interest. But Swift’s powerful songs reach their climaxes with bittersweet orchestrations, rather than blows to the solar plexus or a ringing in the ears. Everything hovers; little truly lands.
