Guys, stop denying it, shes the fucking best. Folklore is one of the best records of the year. Its very National-y.


But also, she just announced ANOTHER record. Its out tomorrow. ft. bon Iver, The National and Haim. madness

    The National and Bon Iver!  Slit wrist music time!

    I am interested to see what Bon Iver comes up w this time as that 22 millions album was subpar.

    Taylor Swift is a generational talent, yes.  People need to stop hating.  She writes and plays her own music.

    You want to see what he comes up with see exile on folklore it was a brilliant duet.  

    Talk about making the most of a terrible year. Write, record and release 2 albums in less then 6 months. And not small albums either over 30 new songs. Plus she is re-recording her entire back library. That’s some work ethic.  

    And yeah come on PJ you have some work to do.

    Taylor Swift has done a better job at keeping us at home than our government has.

    PJ had a solid run.  Lightning bolt was their swansong.  Be thankful for what we did get.

    Taylor is  still building an incredible catalog and capitalizing on opportune moments to ride the wave while in her prime creative years.  An artist of a generation.   PJ did the same during their creative peak and that period passed a long time ago.

    What I find bonkers is, she was hugely popular before I had kids, then 12 years later, shes even more massive and shes still young enough where my kids think she's cool enough to like. 

    And she's only 31.

    Song with the National sounds awesome on the first listen. Last track with Justin Vernon was great too. Will listen to the full album tomorrow

    I see the evermore CD and vinyl are up on her website. Any idea if they come with a digital download? Or when they will be in stores? Surprising lack of info in that regards.

    So, um, what are the top recommendations of her previous albums?

    folklore
    1989
    Red are her best

    Speak Now is 100% all written by her and is a classic as well. 

    Fearless has a bunch of big radio hits too but is more country.

    Thanks! Yeah, I picked up folklore (thanks to the folks on the Ten Target Exclusive thread here!). I will definitely check out your recommendations.
