My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined.
Following up a hugely acclaimed and successful album isn't always an easy thing to do, and Musgraves had a mountain of a task ahead of her following the critical praise levelled towards her last album Golden Hour: A masterclass in combining light pop country with subtle psychedelic influences. Truly one of the best country albums of the 2010's. So where would she go from there, especially following a rather tumultuous divorce from her ... read more

It’s a lot of atmosphere, but not really anything that rouses any interesting characteristics outside of the usual drone/avant folk blends.
Standout: The Dirge
Favs: Hounds of Hades
Least fav: Song of the Yahee people

Cute country release! Songwriting can be a bit literal and to the point at times, but vocally and instrumentally this album is rich and tasteful.
Standout: Tennesse Song
Favs: Weekender, Hurtin’, Since you put me down, Hands of Time
Least fav: This town gets around

what's a song that you originally liked, that got wreaked by an ad using it? mine was brutal, the opener for the new olivia rodrigo album. i was listening to it on youtube, with no adblock. so everytime a song finished, i just heard THEY SAY THESE ARE THE GOLDEN YEARS!!
if not an ad, than overplay in a similarly notable way will suffice
