edit: the review is also just straight out mean:

“but Ali Payami turns “I’m to Blame” into a country-pop ballad so weak Taylor Swift would have left it in the vault“

Worst Review ever. Embarrassing 

And just wrong at many points.. they talk about pineapple slice and say „I prepared for tonight/ate a pineapple slice“ is the most „outrages“ thing on the record. Have they listend to even this song properly? 
 

Any who :saladga:

this review felt soooo sexist. wtf was he complaining that she's "settled down" into a hetro marriage and her music has suffered? 

no king, or court!

it's not my favorite album (I definitely enjoyed Sunshine Kitty a lot more) but they make it sound like she's suddenly 'gone PG'

They sound so idiotic sometimes trying to use big words :ladyhaha:

“This can be a lonely position for many queer women, who contend with assimilation into the heterosexual mainstream as well as “we get it christa you lived in madrid”-style exile from the queer community” then they say it’s “stone-faced ‘heteropessimism’” = essentially “this can be lonely for queer women, but we wish that she had sung about her receiving head again or feeling ‘cool’ rather than her internal struggles”. Plus “heteropessimism”??? :zilla: Wtf do they call an album like Midnights with its 20 tracks about failed hetero relationships (minus maybe Glitch….) and it’s 7.4 rating? Or SOUR with its 7.0 rating? I know those are both still low for the standards those other albums were reviewed at, but still much better than this stupid rating of just over 50%.

THIS LIKE WHAT. It’s dirtier than DISCO TITS, the dirtiest thing that song says is  being “wet from head to toe” and “nipples are hard, ready to go”. Pineapple Slice is literally an oral sexual encounter in lyrical form, every part of that song sans the pre-chorus detail ‘someone’ being between her legs

Plus, Kick in the Head is one of the coolest, most unique pop songs this year, and they have the NERVE to use it lyrically as an attempted JAB at her needing to ‘get kicked in the head’ and start writing only about sex :fthis:

The fact they’re comparing a song to Taylor Swift is wrong. They’re two different artists.

obviously the ToveLo gang didn’t pay pitchfork enough for a near perfect score :ohwell:

Can we all agree this is a crap review?
 

But can we also not bring down other artists while doing so? I know PF mentioned Taylor first. But just because Tove Lo deserves more doesn’t mean Taylor deserves less.
