    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This album definitely had bops that I listen to all the time. The thing is that it is lacking the emotion I wanted hear that Folklore had, but her storytelling was immaculate. This album showed her talent of songwriting the most. It felt like I was watching a movie that was only a few minutes long. It also feels really calm and soothing compared to her other albums like Reputation and Speak Now.… Expand

However, the slow burn reveals Swift’s most haunting album yet - a deeper dive lyrically and spiritually, a more indie and overcast venture than folklore was, and a masterpiece in beautiful melancholy and aching nostalgia. The record contains some of Swift’s greatest songs to date - a culmination of her famous ability to make piercing emotions into stunning art: “champagne problems”, “gold rush,” “‘tis the damn season,” “happiness,” “ivy,” and “evermore.” If folklore was a walk through the folksy woodsiness of Red, evermore is a stroll through both Red and Speak Now’s hushed, cloudy-day ballads (see “Sad Beautiful Tragic” and “Last Kiss”) enriched by Swift’s maturity and musical experimentation.… Expand

    Clearly Swift is in a moment of pure reflection with her life, consequently producing music that has no intention of being commercial or to be on the charts and that is great.

Taylor talks directly to the listener, it's almost like a consultation with your psychologist. She knows how to choose the right words to tell her stories. However, unlike 'Folklore' (its brother), 'Evermore' is not for first listens, maybe it is an album that will gradually gain you.… Expand

    Folklore is the younger, wide-eyed and socially anxious sister with an ambitious, passionate side. Evermore is the elder, has been through a lot but has been able to find happiness in the end. This album gives off the vibe of something fundamentally scarred, but there's also the feeling of "I've made it", content, calmed, accomplished. This is such a beautiful mood.

    What “Evermore” is full of is narratives that, like the music that accompanies them, really come into focus on second or third listen, usually because of a detail or two that turns her sometimes impressionistic modes completely vivid. ... It’s an embarrassment of stunning albums-ending-in-“ore” that she’s mined out of a locked-down muse.

    This is an album for adults, full of the type of pain and loss that only someone who has come through the tunnel and can look back at it with clear eyes can write. A lot of people won’t understand it. A lot of high school kids who just lost their first love will think they understand it. But it’s a beautiful, intricate, heartbreaking ode to a nostalgic revisiting of ones past losses.

    evermore is Taylor Swift’s second surprise album this year, and one might say it is an early Christmas present. evermore serves as a sister album to folklore, released five months prior to this album. Having loved folklore so much, I was waiting all of December 13 to listen to the new album, and I downloaded it precisely at 9:00 PM, when it became available on Spotify. The next day, I used my break time chunks to listen to the full album, and I was extremely pleased with what I heard. If one were to call evermore “folklore 2,” that is extremely accurate. This means that the music is very different from Taylor Swift’s older stuff, but just as good as in folklore in most of evermore’s songs. Her lyrics in this album are also among her best. I wish that I could include all of my thoughts on each of evermore's songs, but that would go well above the character limit. Overall, I had a wonderful time listening to evermore, as it was a splendid continuation of its sister album, folklore. It was different enough than its predecessor to make it fun to listen to, but similar enough that it retained its spirit. Some standout songs are in this album, such as “crime” and “story.” evermore was a fantastic sequel to folklore and I really hope that Taylor Swift continues on in this new direction. Not only is the music that she creates extremely fun to listen to, but her lyrics are taken to a higher level not yet seen in her songs. As a result, both of her recent albums have been wonderful and have scored highly. In fact, for evermore, I have saved more songs off of this album percentage-wise than a great majority of others I have reviewed. I love the new sound that Taylor Swift has made for herself and this makes me extremely eager to listen to more content that she releases. I recommend evermore to all Taylor Swift fans, as well as everyone who enjoyed folklore. Highlights: willow; champagne problems; gold rush; ‘tis the d**n season; no body, no crime; dorothea; coney island; cowboy like me; long story short, marjorie, and evermore.    … Expand

    Was sceptical about this album initially. After giving a few listens I can say that she has topped THE folklore with this amazing album

    Taylor released yet another career-best. evermore goes even deeper in what was experimented with folklore and like its predecessor, it succeeds.

    Magnificent album. Although I feel that like its predecessor it goes backwards in the style of Taylor. Although it is not bad, since it manages to find itself in a reflective and artistic point that few artists today have.

    A great album throughout. The album starts with the beautiful willow, the video of which is just as beautiful as the song. The lyrics on this album are some of Taylor’s best.

    "Evermore" is another masterpiece made by Taylor Swift. "willow" with fascinating and charming instrumental opens the album. "gold rush" and "long story short" add a good pinch of beautiful pop with thoughtful lyrics. There are some song that may make you think about some your major questions of you life like "tolerate it", "happiness", "evermore". There is a good reminder of a country era"Evermore" is another masterpiece made by Taylor Swift. "willow" with fascinating and charming instrumental opens the album.

There are some song that may make you think about some your major questions of you life like "tolerate it", "happiness", "evermore". There is a good reminder of a country era - " no body,no crime". Such songs as "marjorie", "closure" have really interesting sound and production, telling us about illicit affairs. "'tis the damn season" is one of the best song in the album, you can't stop putting on repeat this amazing story that found its place in Taylor's album.… Expand

    It is without question a wintering record, but out of this muted musical landscape songs of great and complex beauty emerge. [Mar 2021, p.34]

    Even though we get a catchy moment of goofy, snarling country midway through, the album is a result of the emotional clarity that a year in quarantine provided. Swift has written about curdling relationships splendidly in the past, but there's a new dimension to her writing that wasn’t there before. Onward.

    The pandemic seems to have freed her, given her the space to breathe, and has allowed her to produce her most elegant and sophisticated work to date.
