Matt42 Posted September 10, 2021 Report Share Posted September 10, 2021 I haven’t fully listened enough to form an opinion but her sound has definitely matured and her writing is still top notch. Some solid Kacey lyrical moments in here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I’ve given it a few more listens over the weekend but each time it finishes I’m just left cold by the whole thing. A few semi-standouts aside, nothing here comes close to touching anything from her last album. Assuming she ends up playing the festival next year, the Pyramid was truly robbed an all-Golden Age set. Gonna be fuming when she doesn’t play Happy & Sad and we get the Spanish cover song that finishes this album for some reason instead.

High Horse aside, she doesn't really trade in dancefloor destroyers. Golden Hour is a warm sunny album, but Future Nostalgia it ain't. Wait for the live version of There Is A Light. Im sure its going to be an extended disco jam with the flute solo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is all a broken record that keeps repeating itself. People did this 40 and 50 years ago when Dolly and Willie Nelson went “pop”. Yet here we are. Ya’ll are not giving anyone any chances or patience at all. How is this album a flop already anyway. If it wasnt for Kanye and Drake it would be #1 in the U.S on friday. I thought that was the Glasto bread and butter if you had a #1 or highly charted album to tour with. But times are changing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rose-Colored Boy Posted September 15, 2021 Report Share Posted September 15, 2021 (edited) A step down from Golden Hour - one of the best AOTY winners in history - was inevitable. It’s fine.

It’s got nothing to do with her going ‘pop’. I’m pretty sure everybody was expecting her to go in a more pop direction with this one, and I was hoping that she’d embrace it a lot more than she actually has much like Taylor’s move from country to pop, but it’s just an incredibly boring, unmemorable album with the overproduced vocals and trite lyrics. It falls right in to the category of not even being bad but just being incredibly mediocre. I don’t think anybody has said it’s a flop, as I’m sure it’ll chart reasonably well, but as a follow up to Golden Hour (and just an album altogether)… well yeah, it’s a flop, to be largely erased from her setlists when she hopefully returns with her next much better album in a couple of years.

zero000 Posted January 28 Report Share Posted January 28 Bump. Kacey has got to be a shoe in for the Pyramid with her tour dates. Set lists are looking pretty tasty too:https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/kacey-musgraves/2022/wells-fargo-center-philadelphia-pa-1b88e5f0.html 4th or 5th down perhaps? I think an hour set with the bangers from Golden Hour would go down a storm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
