    This album sounds less mature than Sour and there is way too much of her just speaking the words. I was really hoping for the quality vocals I heard on songs such as Traitor or Driver's License. It seems like the expectation proceeded her.

    The songwriting in this album was childish and immature. I listened to the entire album several times to see if it would grow on me but none of the songs are memorable. They have no distinctive sound, they are all just loud. The only song that stands out is Lacy.

    Eu acho a olivia muito sem sal e básica, mas apesar disso tive grandes esperanças de que 'GUTS' seria um bom álbum, mas infelizmente me decepcionei bastante. A composição é fraca, os photoshoots são feios demais e as músicas além de chatas poderiam facilmente serem faixas bônus de 'SOUR'. E sinceramente, não consigo entender como os críticos estão dando notas altas para este álbum.

    'Guts' is basically just a bunch of leftovers from 'Sour', which was already boring given it was just your average cheesy teenage album about an annoying ex trying to make sure her old boyfriend is portrayed as the biggest monster ever for committing the capital sin of breaking up with her.

    This album is just a compilation of Disney Channel pop-rock rejects about a now grown teen taking a love delusion too far. Sorry Olivia, but writing your own lyrics is far from enough for being a good artist, especially with such a mediocre and obviously studio edited singing voice.    … Expand

    I feel bits of innovation in some tracks, but it all feels like a continuation of SOUR, something that could've been on their previous album and would be the same.

    The album is just an expansion of the sound brutal offered on her debut album, a sound that’s more of noisy, gimmicky and pretentious. Didn’t enjoy this record.

    Not my type of music. This just sounds so noisy and nothing special unless you like screaming... The ballads are better but just okay level. Couldn't understand the rave reviews from critics. It's a extremely overrated record.

    Como de se esperar da Olivia Rodrigo, letras que tratam sempre do mesmo assunto e melodias roubadas de outras músicas. O SOUR pelo menos tinham algumas músicas memoráveis já o GUTS...

    I was very much looking forward to this album, but I’m sorry to say that I am disappointed. It sounds a lot like an early aughts Avril Lavigne album, or a rockified knockoff Taylor Swift. The hooks disappoint, with decent build up but no emotional payoff. Lyrically, there are a lot of lines that are repeated multiple times, serving as filler between bars.

    “Teenage Dream” recycles a song title of Katy Perry’s and echoes a twisty-turny melody of Lana Del Rey’s. Yet Rodrigo’s emotional presence is so strong throughout “Guts” — so believable even at its most unrelatable — that you never lose the sense of a specific young person navigating a trial of her own making.

    GUTS is emphatic proof that Rodrigo isn't just good for a kid -- she's grown into an artist with plenty of things to say, and the confidence and eloquence to say them her way.
