Melodic and heartfelt, Austin surprises at nearly every turn, whether that's by an unexpected sonic detour or the simple fact that Post Malone has never sounded this fearless.

Though his notable genre-defying skills are still here in ‘Austin’, Posty’s clearly veering off in new creative directions, which is a bold choice to make considering his formula thus far has pushed him to global acclaim.

It's a fantastic shake-up to hear more vocally challenging tracks from Post Malone – long may it last.

While his 17 new songs don’t amount to a flawless masterpiece, they do paint a picture of a Post Malone who not only knows he needs to turn things around, but also intends to at any cost.

Whatever the future holds, this is an album that dares to buck trends, and at its best can be genuinely moving.

The US singer and rapper’s most personal album is stunningly affecting at first, but soon starts to pall.

With a focus on guitar-centric pop-rock, Posty’s latest record is a passion project that feels overstuffed and undercooked.

Even with a fresh coat of paint, Post Malone’s writing is still overly serious.

Malone’s wordplay does bring some originality to the old story of the sorrowful celeb.

This album's lack of a broad appeal doesn’t only stem from shedding Malone's hip-hop skin, it comes from a severe deficiency of excitement.

Austin's lyrical highpoints are diminished by gross production choices.

One of the nicest guys in the music industry is back with another full-length LP! His last project was very underwhelming, but I was hoping for this to be better (although Waiting For Never from the deluxe was incredible, I was hoping for that kind of vibe here). Either way, I want the best for Posty, he seems like such a genuine soul with a great sharp voice.
I was always a fan of his more "Rock" inspired songs rather than the Trap inspired songs (Rockstar and Saint Tropez go hard ... read more
Posty just bought a new Lamborghini but he is feeling moody :(
In fact this is actually my first full album from Post Malone, I have heard some of his work in the past, And even though I liked a few of his songs I didn't really care for him too much. Coming into this album, I just wanted one thing, Not to be bored. And well, I can't say I was jumping out of my seat to be honest.
I'm sure that Posty is a nice person in real life, And I've got nothing against him, I just think he is a pretty ... read more
Incredibly underrated album, truly his only without any “hits”. His most personal album. “Austin” is essentially exactly what I always wanted from Post Malone. Allowing himself to lean fully into slower pop tracks, where he shined the brightest in his previous albums.
Best songs: Green Thumb, Texas Tea, Don’t Understand, Hold My Breath
His most personal album, this album makes me feel so good i like it so much. When i'm down this album always cheers me
