Reviews"With songs that reveal more facets with repeated listens....FOLKLORE uses pop as a way to introduce deeper, knottier characters.", 4.5 stars out of 5 -- "The real surprise is the music itself -- the most head-spinning, heartbreaking, emotionally ambitious songs of her life.", "On album eight, Swift dives headfirst into the world of folk, alternative rock and indie....The results are unexpected, and sometimes astonishing...", "FOLKLORE is far less concerned with its individual tracks than the greater, twisting conversation -- the sort of hours-long, sanity-affirming chats that have become vital over these last four months.", "A quiet, exquisite album....The gentle, unhurried pace of the songs as she tells her stories in rich, hidden metaphors shows us an unanticipated side of her...", "A Sweater-Weather Record Filled with Cinematic Love Songs and Rich Fictional Details.", "The tranquil voices, the soft piano riffs and the pristine production come together to create just over an hour of cathartic and escapist listening."
