    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Uma tentativa desesperada de fazer o que não lhe cabe mais. Um Rock com uma pegada teen ultrapassada. Deveria seguir os passos da Miley. Não consegui ouvir mais que 30 segundos das músicas... Álbum sem conteúdo algum, sem relevância alguma para a música. Expand

    Demi tried to make a rock album and failed because it is still more of the same if she'd focus on creating trends instead of following what works for others that will be fine, Just screaming as always, the songs with simple and predictable production more of the same. .

    This album is somehow even more pretentious and irredeemable than Beyonce's new album. Imagine stroking your hand through sand and pulling out crap. That's how I feel about Demi and her fake, phony music.

    The album is different, but she is trying too much to show that she changed. I find this album just like an attempt of an ex Disney girl who released a rock album just to show that she's changed. The sound is pretty old and commercial. Nothing to be excited about.

    I've taken my time to listen to this album, not a good one. This was literraly taken from hollywood reporter. "If ‘Holy Fvck’ is a funeral for Lovato’s pop music, it also marks a new beginning, with an artist reborn. As the musician explores this ferocious sonic world and celebrating her musical roots, it’s the start of a bold new era." ..

    The only song I like is 29. I feel like Demi is telling the same story every album. And she shows it like it's revolutionary. I don't think it is.

    I’ve been listening to Demi Lovato since her Disney Years and while she has one of the greatest voices, this new album falls flat in several instances.

    The return to Rock feels inauthentic and forced and the lyrics are a vast disappointment and lack of sense as to what the album means. The shock value for the sake of attention is highly clear and it takes away from the beautiful vocals

    None of the songs are catchy or memorable enough to give a second listen. It will be interesting to see if the general public embraces this new “edgy” sound or if they will see behind the curtain.

    Love Demi vocally! Personally, I’m not sure if rock is her genre. While the music sounds ok aesthetically, I can’t decipher whether if she’s singing, or screaming. Some of her best work lies with ballads and emotional pieces. Maybe it’ll grow in me, but for now, not a fan of this particular work.

    They have a good voice but overuse it like trying to show off their vocals? and it just sounds like yelling.. tone it down a bit and it would be perfect. Also can artists stop making music just based off what is popular they are obviously trying take advantage of the resurgence of pop punk/rock in the mainstream to try get hits (like gayle did) but it comes off as disingenuous like just doThey have a good voice but overuse it like trying to show off their vocals? and it just sounds like yelling.. tone it down a bit and it would be perfect.

    After listening to this album for a couple times, I will confidently say that this is the worst album of the year. Her ugly voice was terribly mixed with the low quality instrumentals, the lyrics don’t make sense at all, and the tracklist is a whole mess. 0/10 never listening again. I prefer her older albums like Born To Die and Ultraviolence.

    I would give it a 0, but I decided to be nice and give it a 1 instead. "HOLY FVCK" has to be the worst "rock" album I have ever heard. It sounded like a Walmart version of a Miley Cyrus album. Did not enjoy one song off of this album. Will not be supporting any future Demi Lovato they/them releases in the future. Selena Gomez is much better than this nonbinary spoon lighter.

    If anything, Holy Fvck proves that maybe it was Lovato’s pop albums that were the fluff, and this is the substance they’ve been looking for.

    Holy Fvck has its flaws – Lovato’s powerful voice is unnecessarily finessed and Auto-Tuned, and 16 tracks is too long. But its gutsy ambition is a thing of substance in and of itself.
