THE TORTURED POETS DEPARTMENT: THE ANTHOLOGY

the take

You realize how fantastic this album is once you’ve sat with it for a while. It’s not quite as cohesive as folklore, but definitely up there in Swift’s releases in the recent decade. Top songs lyrically: loml, How did it end?, The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived, Chloe or Sam or Sophia or Marcus, and Peter. Top songs musically: Guilty as Sin?, Fresh Out the Slammer, Fortnight, So High School, The Bolter
