Global music superstar Taylor Swift released her tenth career artist album “Midnights” on Friday, October 21, via Republic Records.
It opens with the crisp “Lavendar Haze,” which instantly hooks listeners in this hypnotic collection. It is followed by the enthralling “Maroon” and the anthemic “Anti-Hero,” which stands out sonically, lyrically, and vocally.
Jack Antonoff joined her as a producer for the majority of this musical effort. Lana Del Rey lends her crystalline vocals on “Snow on the Beach,” and she harmonizes well with Swift.
Equally moving is “You’re On Your Own, Kid” coupled with a poignant message, and the glorious “Midnight Rain.”
With “Labyrinth” and “Bejeweled,” she proves that her pristine, expressive voice is too good to be mortal.
After the unapologetic “Karma,” it closes with the soothing “Sweet Nothing” and the catchy “Mastermind,” where she leaves her dedicated fans, the “Swifties,” yearning for more.
The Verdict
Overall, Taylor Swift’s latest studio offering “Midnights” is authentic, raw, honest, and compelling. It is filled with raw emotions and it should have Grammy written all over it; moreover, it is worth more than just a passing glance.
There are no filler tracks on here, and the way the album is sequenced musically is quite noteworthy. It deserves to catapult to the top of the Billboard 200 all-genre charts.
For fans over the age of 21, grab a bottle of wine or a glass of champagne, and allow Swift to lure you into this impressive record. “Midnights” is highly versatile, where there is something in it for everybody. This groundbreaking collection garners an A rating.
