SOUR has a few highs, no real lows and overall a neatly packed theme. It's a decent album. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

joesuda Pronounshe/him/his Moderator 3,690 Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 My thoughts about Sour (mostly copied from OR thread): Overall the album is very Swiftian. I feared that it would be maybe too samey considering the subject matter is on one relationship, but luckily this album is able to avoid it with good tracklisting. I believe originally it was meant to be an EP and due to the success of DL it became an album. I maybe feel that as an EP it could have been an all killer, no filler type of affair, but alas. The short tracklist works well here and it makes a very strong debut. You can see how Olivia is a strong writer, but I the most you can see is her potential. Given more time, she would be able to create a marvellous/all-timer album, but that does not take away the fact that this is still a good album. The singles were chosen quite wisely as they are definitely on the stronger side of the tracks. Comparing to WWAFAWDWG, I feel Billie's album was a more realised vision. However Billie's debut single came out in 2016 so she had time to realise a full vision. However there is no song on Sour that is as bad as 8 so well, hello, let's celebrate that. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is going #1 in the US luckily (or I will be rioting). I think that G4U can snatch #1s in the next week in markets that are not focused on by the Armys (so probably in Europe). 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DonnieDarko A Popster Is Born 18,409 Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 (edited) I must say, that Olivia album really made me almost fall asleep after listening to it even though I just woke up. I really wanted to like it. Brutal was the only song that I kind of liked. Edited May 21, 2021 by DonnieDarko 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
