listening to the NCTH remaster. feels like they basically gave it the level of gloss Hum got, meaning it's LOUD but not muddy and blessedly a tiny bit more dynamic than before. the vocals are a little upfront for my liking but that was how I felt about Hum as well. overall though definitely an improvement, can't imagine reaching for the original mix over it.

not sure why you feel the need to cape for her this hard. all I'm saying is there's a difference between a #1 album and a song you will still hear on the radio five years from now.

The immediate chart placements were a given. I'm talking about actual lasting cultural memory. I don't get the feeling there's another "Cruel Summer" in the mix here.

amazed to be weeks out from a taylor swift album launch without having been subjected to any of the new music in a public space (or on the truck radio at work for that matter). I know the sales/streaming numbers are huge, and I did see a couple taylor themed signs on my half marathon this morning (both lazy, sorry to report) but I feel like maybe the sun has set on her all-powerful hegemonic power. for the moment at least...

as a "real head" I agree with Worry. being the opus, though I like We Cool and Vacation only a smidge less

really good album, I think "david and goliath," "a bug's life" and the last two songs are the standouts. immediately snapped up a ticket to see her in feb.

as a swift hater I will concede it's very endearing that she gave jim a "rising up to the stage from below" moment

I just looked up Title Fight and it sounds *exactly* like a lot of bands I know only because of this site, this is a narcissism of small differences discussion
