the album is brutally honest, satirical, a bit cringe here and there, depressing and experimental at the same time, I would not side eye anyone for saying "I don't understand this" or "this isn't my cup of tea" or even "what the fuck is this" because it's obviously not a 1989 or midnights kind of album for everyone. I understand why she said she "had to put this out" but while she is at the peak of her career, she released an album that is not for beginners nor really for overall critics, it's knees deep into the taylor swift lore and probably the most herself an album has ever been, that does not mean it is a masterpiece but it makes it so insanely special
#It struck a chord with me in a way I can't quite comprehend#Im confused and exhilarated with tears in my eyes

It’s a 2am surprise: The Tortured Poets Department is a secret DOUBLE album. ✌️ I’d written so much tortured poetry in the past 2 years and wanted to share it all with you, so here’s the second installment of TTPD: The Anthology. 15 extra songs. And now the story isn’t mine anymore… it’s all yours. 🤍

Bangers2 and the quest for the ultimate pinned post
Hi Tumblr! I'm bangers2 :)
Might be a little bit late to make a pinned post BUT. I feel like I should probably introduce myself!
I don't feel too comfortable sharing any personal details but..
On the internet, just call me bangers2 (any pronouns)
This is my sideblog! I interact from @idling-somewhere
I started this blog on a whim because I was bored hahah
I love music with my entire heart obviously
Outside of musicposting, my favourite hobbies are keeping plants, learning maths, and occasionally drawing
I used to be a huge swiftie, but a couple years ago I wanted to expand my palate, so I listened to other music (shocker) and haven't really gone back since. I still love Folklore and Evermore though. Im keeping the pfp as a little nod to her!
Right now, my favourite artists are Porter Robinson, Jane Remover, underscores, Kero Kero Bonito, and Beyoncé.
I don't really have favourite genres - I kind of listen to anything and everything.
I hope to keep this blog going! Even though I don't do daily songs anymore (that got kind of crazy LOL) I still like this as a little space where I can yap about music that nobody I know IRL really..cares about T_T
Here are my other socials!
AOTY - bangers2

Weekly Album #1: Beyoncé - COWBOY CARTER
★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★
This ain't a country album, this is a Beyoncé album.
100th post! That's crazy. Ok so here's what I'm thinking of doing now. Obviously I don't listen to enough music to keep doing a song a day. BUT. I want to branch out more and listen to some new shit. Thus I am going to try to listen to a new album every couple days / weeks and post a song from it, giving you my initial thoughts on the record. I like having this account very very much and don't want to kill it! This will allow me to write reviews without embarrassing myself on AOTY lol.
Let's start easy: A highly anticipated album for me, from my childhood hero: Beyoncé. I do not like country music at all. I like Dolly Parton and the one Carrie Underwood song. Sometimes I SLIGHTLY enjoy Taylor Swift's country stuff. But it's never been a genre that I've voluntarily listened to or explored. The two singles Bey released for this project, "Texas Hold 'Em" and "16 Carriages" were a lot more palatable to me, but I kind of thought that I only liked them because they were Beyoncé. I get attached to artists whose work I usually enjoy, and end up enjoying their music even if it's totally different to what I usually like. Going into CC, I had low expectations, but remained a bit hopeful.
I think the most accurate description of this album is that it is a Beyoncé record with a bit of a country twang. On this album are guitars, real instruments, country-style melodies, and lyrical subject matter which has the soul of country music, but labelling it solely as a country album is maybe the most diminutive thing you can do.
Genres are a funny little concept, aren't they?
On Cowboy Carter, Beyoncé explores so many different musical styles: traditional country, but also classic rock, gospel-style balladry, little ditties, and even Jersey club and a little bit of trap (there's a D.A. Got That Dope-produced track on here!?). She sings about her father, her family, her children, and her confidence, but also addresses not winning AOTY (a crime.), as well as making a reference to "Becky with the good hair" right before covering Dolly Parton's "Jolene."
This album is overwhelming. There are so many songs, so many different sounds and emotions, and yet I can't say there's any I'd get rid of. My one criticism is its length, but at the same time, every song contributes to the emotional journey this album takes you on, and pruning the tracklist would make for an incomplete, shallower experience.
She's reached new heights. She's made one of the best albums of her career, nearly 30 years in. She's also done the impossible: she got me to sit through an hour and eighteen minutes of "country" music. And I enjoyed it! Yeehaw!
★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★
As of right now, here are my standout tracks:
AMERIICAN REQUIEM ★ BLACKBIIRD ★ BODYGUARD ★ JOLENE ★ DAUGHTER ★ ALLIIGATOR TEARS ★ II MOST WANTED ★ RIVERDANCE ★ II HANDS II HEAVEN ★ TYRANT ★ SWEET HONEY BUCKIN ★ AMEN
★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★
I encourage anyone who likes the music I usually post to check out "II HANDS II HEAVEN." I saw someone compare this one to Four Tet. I have never listened to Four Tet, so you know exactly what I'm going to be talking about next time!
