Taylor Swift’s 8th studio album folkloreincluding bonus track the lakes.

“Most of the things I had planned this summer didn’t end up happening, but there is something I hadn’t planned on that DID happen. And that thing is my 8th studio album, folklore.I wrote and recorded this music in isolation but got to collaborate with some musical heroes of mine; Aaron Dessner, Bon Iver, William Bowery and Jack Antonoff.”

“Made from afar, primarily with the Nationals Aaron Dessner, Swifts eighth album is a sweater-weather record filled with cinematic love songs and rich fictional details.”8/10 Pitchfork

“Taylor Swifts surprise eighth album,Folklore, takes 16 complex and intriguing tunes by pops reigning colossus and gussies them up in atmospherics acceptable to the mature indie rock listener. Gone are the brash production values, the musical pugilism that codes Swift as pop. Gone are the trademark valedictory shouts at the end of her songs. In their place are tunes that exhibit a desire to be taken seriously by a different demographic, one whose delicate sensibilities are more responsive to ruminative thrums and just-so orchestrations.” The Guardian
