Yap! Yap!

Yeah: all the time it took to copy and paste the quote and write the few lines I did. Took me all day, that did.

Album title: Witness
Artist: Katy Perry
Genre: Electropop
Nationality: American
Release date: June 9
Position in Discography: Fifth
Estimated Rating:

Have I heard of this artist? Yes
Have I heard anything by this artist? No (that's right: I've never heard a single Katy Perry song. No, not even that one.)
Average RYM Score: 2.24
Interestingly, not as blandly poppy as I had expected, almost synthpop in a way. I like the title track certainly, which is also the opener, but I could do without Nicki Minaj, well, at any time really, but particularly on “Swish Swish”. It's an okay song but she doesn't add anything to it and it's far from the best on the album. “Power” has a lot of, um, power, and has a kind of dramatic tone to it, and I really like the passion she puts into “Mind Maze” and , yeah, “Miss You More” is pretty damn fine too. Further into the album I feel the tracks begin to get weaker - “Chained to the Rhythm”, “Tsunami”, “Bon Appetit”, “Bigger Than Me” do little for me – but then “Save As Draft” brings the quality back up to what it was before, darkly brooding and somewhat epic-sounding. The album ends quite well. Better than I had expected, I'll be honest.

Album title: Heart Break
Artist: Lady Antebellum
Genre: Country Pop
Nationality: American
Release date: June 9
Position in Discography: Seventh
Estimated Rating:

Have I heard of this artist? Yes
Have I heard anything by this artist? Yes
Average RYM Score: 2.57
I only heard one album by this band, and it was pretty soon after enjoying Blue Sky Riders' debut, so I had hoped that would be something similar, but I was very disappointed with it. The first track is not bad, but it soon slips into the mediocrity I experienced on 747 as I had expec – oh. Wait. That's not true. There are the odd duff songs, yes, but in general this is turning out to be a lot better than I had anticipated. Songs like “Hurt”, “This City”, “The Stars”, “Teenage Heart” are all really very impressive, and the few lower-quality ones are definitely outnumbered here. More like what I had hoped to hear when I checked out 747. A whole lot better.

Check out more from this artist? Yes, now I may very well do

She's one lucky girl. Won't Kesha be jealous though?
