A review criticising Taylor Swift’s new album has inspired the ire of the American superstar’s fans.
The Tortured Poets Department, the latest hugely popular release from Taylor which dropped on Friday, was slammed in a news.com.au piece titled: ‘Taylor Swift’s new album shows one thing: She could use a break’.
‘Faced with 16-odd songs about her boyfriends and breakups, many listeners might be yearning for a return to the days of folklore and evermore, when Swift created fictional stories to illuminate her songwriting’ music critic Nick Bond writes.
The review continues: ‘”I know I’m just repeating myself,” Swift sings on My Boy Breaks His Favourite Toys. Listening to The Tortured Poets Department in full, one can’t help but think that’s starting to become a problem’.
Many fans of the pop star were less than impressed with the verdict, with several airing their grievances on social media.
