Been listening to Rainbow since it leaked a few days ago. My favorite pop album since Taylor's Red. For or all she's been through and how easy it'd be to sink into an album of ballads, the amount of joy and humour she found room for on it is awesome. Also, Joanne has been officially pwned

On first listen Praying is still by far the best song. But much better than Witness.

I have never heard of these before. My younger brother recommended them to me. I like this album, but I wonder if others know them.

Re: New music / What do you think?
Buckethead is a super-prolific guitarist. He is a cult favorite among metal/progressive-rock fans who value speed and virtuosity. He played with Guns N' Roses for a while during the many years when it was just Axl Rose and session musicians.

Oh, so it's not a group? I thought Buckethead sounded like a group.

Woah Brand New stealth released a new album. And I thought this week couldn't get any better with Queens and The War On Drugs also coming out.

Swish Swish Video is out. Probably won't save her album from being a flop.

It strikes me as a decent-but-inferior imitation of Lorde's sound.

Otherwise Taylor's song is not bad and much better than Katy's Swish, which is pretty bad and just a ridiculously obnoxious clip also.

Re: New music / What do you think?
Bon Appetit video is actually pretty good. That Swish Swish video is embarrassing.
Taylor's song is a grower as usual. Can't wait for the video.

Not surprising considering Antonoff is the producer on both Lorde's last album and this new Taylor single, but I'm also getting strong feeling of Madonna/Mirwais/Music era here. I think it's a good song on the first listen.

Re: New music / What do you think?
I have a feeling that Reputation will be hugely successful coming off her commercial career high 1989, but will not be as well received overall and her seventh album will begin her decline.
This will be her Prism, in another word.

It's not all that impressive, but I like that she is trying new things.

Re: New music / What do you think?
So I read the interpretation that "Look What You Made Me Do" is about herself, not feuding with anyone else. Basically it's like this version of Taylor had been hiding inside the old Taylor the whole time watching her play the media game, and now that new Taylor has killed old Taylor and is explaining the reasons why she resented her and saying "Look what you made me do". The music video has a lot of potential

Taylor is so dark. She'll be covering "Bela Lugosi's Dead" next.
