What kind of bulls**t why isn't it higher? The critics are praising her and that's the score so far?

All I know is that it objectively deserves lower than 21(which also deserved more than it got). Still, knowing critics, now that Adele is that huge they will want to praise her to the heavens since they are that fake, so I am confident it will end up with a better score than 21.

WTF why is that low? I mean yeah 71 is not bad but don't tell me it's lower than Revival. MessT. I expected at least 75. And there's a big chance it'll be lowered when the new reviews come. :rip:

Anyway, no one can still match its numbers and is going to break records next week. Bye Felicia.

I personally like this album much more than 21 (besides the 4 singles) 

I think it has a lot more personality while every other song on 21 was slow and not as interesting as the singles

Come on now, 21 has 11 songs of which the 4 singles are flawless, top of the class. From the rest of album Turning Tables, LoveSong and Don't you remember are amazing as well. And then all other songs are good songs to the very least. When it comes to 25 after 4-5 songs the rest are all flat and they don't even have a good rythm, I might even dare to say that also the lyrics don't flow well .

If Adele had released this album in the place of 21 she would never have the same success, not even half of it actually. I am a fan of hers but I'll be honest as well, she could have done far better.

still, it has less reviews. As new reviews arrive, score goes down. The positive reviews are often the ones that come out as soon as the record is released.

25's production wins iver 21 imo, it's much more complex and diverse (not all of the songs sound the same) and a very interesting listen. 21 may have an edge because of the singles, but other than that I think they're comparable

 

and let's not forget that the 3 Kurstin songs on 25 snatch all weaves

I'm aware of it. Anyway, when this start getting headlines, other critics will jump on bandwagon and give it more positive reviews, I hope.
