πΊπΈ: A great sequel to a completely stimulating Dance album. The sequence of new tracks is electrifying, but it gives the feeling that the album ends as soon as the duets start as they scream bonus track! I'm curious to see how it will age with listeners.

πΊπΈ: I listened to this EP repeatedly, and I couldn't extract anything positive from it. You see, I love the whole concept of a superficially sexualized blonde popstar, but that's not what the album delivers. It feels like a compilation of demos desperately trying to sound sharper than it actually is. It could be fun, but it's just exhausting.
π§π·: Eu ouvi esse EP repetidamente, e de fato não consegui extrair nada positivamente dele. Veja bem, eu adoro todo o ... read more
πΊπΈ: I'm not sure what I listened to. Some identity is present, completely hidden and encapsulated... I think because it's a Debut, I can be a bit more forgiving of the attempts and errors. Clearly, Pop Rock is not the genre where the artist's vocal interpretation shines.
π§π·: Não tenho certeza do que ouvi. Alguma identidade está presente, completamente escondida e encapsulada... Acho que pelo fato de ser um Debut eu consigo ser um pouco mais generoso com ... read more
πΊπΈ: It definitely needed to cut about five tracks to become more coherent and atmospheric. The album is confusing; it seems to go everywhere, and there’s no sense of true art pop. While it has good songs in the Dance genre, it doesn’t seem to take enough risks for what was proposed.
π§π·: Definitivamente precisava tirar umas 5 faixas para ele ficar mais coerente e atmosférico. O disco é confuso, parece que vai para todo lugar, e não temos nenhuma ... read more
πΊπΈ: Tension is the kind of safe Dance album, without excesses, and with the delightful gift of being extremely polished and fast-paced. It ends right at the moment you want a little more, forcing you to replay the album over and over. It's not the most incredible gem in Kylie’s crown, but it's certainly a great diamond accessory.
π§π·: Tension é o tipo de album Dance seguro, sem exageros, e com o delicioso dom de ser extremamente redondo e acelerado. Ele ... read more
πΊπΈ: It's a somewhat risky debut compared to what we usually see here, but still within the main purpose of showcasing the artist's vocal talent. Within that, it manages to capture some moments of identity. There are also bad songs, but everyone has to start somewhere.
π§π·: É um debut até um pouco arriscado do que costumamos ver por aqui, mas ainda dentro do principal propósito que era mostrar o talento vocal da artista. E dentro disso, ele ainda ... read more
πΊπΈ: If in the original the mixing and vocal technique were part of the problem, here not only have those issues been corrected but greatly improved. In addition to sum tracks from the deluxe version, we also have vault tracks that are great surprises, maintaining the artist's identity while offering a more "adult" perspective on the themes addressed.
π§π·: Se no original a mixagem e a técnica vocal eram parte do problema, aqui não só isso foi ... read more
πΊπΈ: The lyrical content of this album is very powerful and perfectly captures that spirit of late adolescence with the feeling of "I know everything about the world, I'm completely ready." It’s truly a strong piece from the artist in just her second attempt. Some mixing and production issues, along with a vocal technique still in development, detract slightly from the album's shine.
π§π·: O conteúdo lírico desse álbum é muito ... read more
πΊπΈ: It's an introductory album that doesn't present much beyond showcasing the artist's vocal performance, although in a very rudimentary way. And that's what really holds the album together in a tracklist that becomes tedious by the time it reaches the end.
π§π·: É um álbum de introdução que não apresenta nada muito além de mostrar a performance vocal do artista, ainda que de uma maneira bem rudimentar. E é o que ... read more
πΊπΈ: It's not bad, but for years I've always wanted to see Kylie doing Disco, and with those high expectations come high demands. The album has nothing to say, and the tracks throw out the most obvious references possible, along with the major issue of mixing and mastering that is slightly forgiven by the pandemic.
π§π·: Não é ruim, mas por anos eu sempre quis ver a Kylie fazendo Disco e com essas grandes expectativas também vem grandes exigências. ... read more
πΊπΈ: It always grows with each listen. It's one of the purest sensations in Pop, to hear an album so tightly crafted. Taylor definitely took all the lyrical and vocal successes from the previous album (and the re-recordings) and managed to apply them in a way that turns for a delightful pop evolution for the artist at this moment.
π§π·: Sempre cresce a cada ouvida. É uma das sensações Pop mais puras, de ouvir um álbum tão fechadinho assim. ... read more
πΊπΈ: The first half of the album starts very strong, a sequence that transports us directly into this pop universe with a slight Country touch and lyrical content that's a bit more refined than just the usual escapism. From there, it loses its way a bit, but the sequence of tracks manages to hold the material together, balancing between the weak and other highs, keeping the experience quite pleasing.
π§π·: A primeira metade do álbum começa muito forte, uma ... read more
πΊπΈ: A major misstep for the artist. The album has its good moments, but it mostly adheres to a rather questionable approach. Where is it heading? It feels like just a collection of club songs without a great purpose. And coming off the last great albums from Kylie, this is quite disappointing. Even with its flaws, it manages to be just okay.
π§π·: Um grande passo em falso da artista. O album tem os seus momentos bons, mas ele é na maior parte do tempo integral a uma abordagem ... read more
πΊπΈ: It's an album that's a bit too long for the production style, becoming somewhat monotonous. However, I don't understand the hatred towards the material; it is weak compared to the artist's recent releases but still better than many albums out there. It is strong in lyrical content, but Antonoff really needs to step back from production. We've nearly exhausted everything we could hear from the duo.
π§π·: É um album um pouco longo demais para o ... read more
πΊπΈ: It's a majestic example of how to make a concise and high-quality album. It’s not an album that risks trying for an entirely different sound, but it manages to take vocal and production risks on some tracks in a way that makes the experience feel completely different from just listening to a generic pop album from the period.
π§π·: É um exemplo majestoso de como fazer um álbum conciso e com qualidade. Não é um album que se arrisca em tentar ... read more
πΊπΈ: I don't like the album's structure, especially because the burlesque pop section at the end feels tedious and poorly finished. The record really SCREAMS it was made in a hurry, focusing on the more commercial songs that are the biggest "hits" (even though I have conflicted feelings about the first track). Overall, the album doesn't go much of anywhere, and the question of whether it was 'worth it' lingers after the listen.
π§π·: Eu não ... read more
πΊπΈ: It's a significant advancement compared to the previous one, both lyrically and sonically. A true "guilty pleasure." It remains pop enough while progressing to a slightly stronger sound, with the last two tracks clearly feeling like part of a project that didn’t come to fruition. Perhaps the issue is this "third album" vibe, and if it were more polished and aggressive, it would work better.
π§π·: É um avanço grande em ... read more
πΊπΈ: I know it's an album with a hint of "it lacks cohesion," but it's still quite solid. It's a delight to spend time listening to the flavor present in each track with the artist's unique vocals, and if it weren't for that single issue and perhaps a bit more work on some lyrics, Kylie’s TENTH album would be in a higher ranking.
π§π·: Sei que é um álbum com um quê de "falta de coesão" mas ainda é ... read more
πΊπΈ: Serves its purpose and is interesting to listen to as one of the pop albums where the sound transition of the new decade is already beginning. It has few lyrics worth any thought beyond the singles and minimally entertaining vocal performances, but it is again primarily an album saved by the level of production.
π§π·: Serve ao propósito e é interessante de se ouvir como um dos álbuns pop aonde a transição sonora da nova década já ... read more
πΊπΈ: Overall, albums that take a slightly riskier approach, especially after a previous extremely successful one, tend to have a lower score. However, they define the blueprint for an artist's emancipation. It's clear how much of Britney is in Britney, and how her vocal ways adapt to each style, something that would become even clearer after. It is indeed a forgotten album, but a very good one, a step in the right direction toward being a true artist.
π§π·: Geralmente albuns ... read more
