Reviews
"Midnights Feels like a Celebration of a 16-Year Career Layered with a Sense of Immense Growth.", "Swift's brain might be sparking random memories -- good and bad -- in the twilight twinkle before sleep takes her, but she's not agitated or unsettled by it, merely processing. It's a warm murmur wrapped in a weighted blanket.", "Her tenth album returns to the dazzling synth-pop of records like 1989 and REPUTATION, with lyrics caught between a love story and a revenge plot.", "Built around vocal effects and vintage synths, it’s an understated sound more interested in setting atmosphere than chasing trends.", "Throughout the album's 13 songs, Swift uses synth-pop teeming with reverb, delicate balladry, and catchy pop hooks to deliver some of her most soul-baring lines, with a smile and a wink.", 4 stars out of 5 -- "‘Lavender Haze’ evokes The Weeknd’s 2016 album STARBOY, shuffling beats and muted vocals supporting Swift’s lyrics that rail against intrusive questioning...", "It may reasonably go on to be recognised as her best album to date, a reminder that magic prevails beyond the frustrations, fantasies and damnations she casts across her latest near-perfect body of work."
