NormanG.Oct 26, 2007The only passable Britney album... its the only good album she has released and the one that shows herself as who she is and shes not pretending anymore.
-
-
RuanHAug 12, 2007In The Zone is Britney's most musically creative and cosmopolitan album, and also her best - elements of pop, r&b, electronica and soft rock are stylishly blended into one brilliant mainstream record.

J.MMar 24, 2009At the time this was her strongest album to date, still it could have done better.

JosephANov 19, 2003Pretty damn good. The production is wonderful, the songs are fun and melodic, and Britney sounds sexy as hell. What more could you want from her?

MkeyMDec 14, 2003The best album of the year by far. Its Brtiney grown up and its an artist taking control of their career and that is great.
-
-
May 24, 2011Sexy, soothing and inspired. The first album Britney delivered that was a great pop album. It sounded current and modern.. It still does - 8 years later.
-
Mar 30, 2011In the Zone is Britney's sexual, exploring, and hypnotic album. It really pushed sexual image into another level. There is only one track that did not fit on the concept, its the Madonna-inspired Brave New Girl. This time, Spears sounds more natural, effortless and sexual without forcing herself. The success relies on her and the producers.
-
Dec 23, 2011This Is Such A Massive Step From Her Last Album Britney! The Best Songs Are: Me Against the Music (Even Though I Hate Madonna!) (I Got That) Boom Boom Toxic And Outrageous! The Other Songs Are Fine, Just Not As Good As Those Tracks!
-
Dec 7, 2016It's sexy and seductive, with a few upbeat numbers thrown in for good measure. Far more timeless than you might expect. If she released it now (2016) it would be lauded by critics. The production is strong, her vocals are mature and the song writing is fun yet sensible. A very, very good album indeed.

Sep 19, 2011It's not Britney's most innovative album, however, what makes In the Zone an appreciated effort is Britney's contribution ("Everytime" is a heartfelt ballad that flatters Britney's fragile and soft, but soothing vocals) and the album's solid production.
-
Aug 7, 2011
-
Sep 10, 2011She turned sexy for this. In a good way. She wrote 8 of the 12 standard edition tracks, like "Brave New Girl" - in my opinion the best track on it. The only bad thing about "In the Zone" is the vocals that sometimes get lazy, like in "Breathe on Me" and "Early Mornin'". Should've been more powerful IMHO.
-
Jul 14, 2012Strong and forceful personality, dance music, music with personality, good compositions, one of the best in Britney. Highlight for "Toxic," "Everytime," "Brave New Girl" and "Outrageous".
-
Nov 21, 2011Best album of the decade

Jun 29, 2012A great effort by Britney. As a huge fan of hers it was great to see how involved she was with the making of this cd. Standout tracks are: Toxic, Early Morning, Everytime and Breathe on Me.
-
May 29, 2012A Pretty Good Album!
Only About 6 Songs Stick Out But That's Fine!
The Whole Album Is Very Pop.... Madonna Was Not Needed To Make A Good Song... -
Sep 2, 2012I love this album and the fact that Britney actually put some effort into it. In the Zone is, in my opinion, her magnum opus, although most people prefer Blackout over it. My favourite tracks are Toxic and Touch of My Hand!
-
Dec 21, 2012One of Britney's most amazing albums. the tracks are amazing with great vocals, beats, and lyrics. standouts include Me Against The Music, I Got That (Boom Boom), Breathe On Me, Toxic,and Outrageous. There could have been at least another ballad.... but hey? It's mostly dance so it's all good!
-
Nov 27, 2013Disgusting!! Crude awful and gross. Britney and One More, were flirty and fun, this is just dead and off-putting
Not even any really nice melodies. Like some idiots playing with a computer program with a bunch cheap effects.
The best song is hold it against me, were a fine chorus barely survives an onslaught of special effects.
Dead, gross, dumb. -
Mar 24, 2013A Major Comeback From Britney! Another Amazing Album! Toxic, Shadow, And Everytime Are Timeless!
-
Nov 4, 2013Easily one of Britney Spears' best albums. (JK It is her best!) With the taste of your lips I'm on a ride, you're toxic I'm slippin' under...THE LEGENDARY MISS BRITNEY SPEARS
-
Dec 10, 2013her best album so far, this is an amazing pop album with elements of Hip Hop and R&B. toxic is definitely the song of the decade, 'me against the music' with MADONNA is such a great song and everytime is one of the most beautiful ballads i've ever heard. 'the hook up' makes u wanna dance like never before, it's magical!!!

Jun 21, 2014Uma palavra para definir esse álbum> samba, Britney misturou vários estilos: Pop, Urban, Dance e muitos outros fazendo com que ele seja um dos melhores de sua carreira. Todas as músicas tem potencial para single, e o que dizer de Toxic? Música perfeita um grande sucesso realmente, todos os singles que o álbum teve foram ótimos. Todas as músicas são, impossível não gostar.

Apr 24, 2015In my opinion, this is Britney's first good album. Most of the songs don't hold up very well on their own, but it works really well as an album. In The Zone is musically diverse, but it also has a nice flow to it for the most part, and it's actually pretty upbeat and fun to listen to. There are only a few not-so-good songs in here, which is certainly a step up from her last three stinkers.
-
Oct 21, 2017Britney retorna mais madura e envolvida no seu trabalho como nunca, fazendo um dos CDs mais incríveis da música pop. Trazendo músicas que entraram pra história como "Toxic" e "Everytime", além da super parceria com Madonna.

Feb 1, 2016On this record, Britney employs her powerful songwriting and melodic skills to create her most inspired sound yet. She showcases various world sounds from the Middle Eastern strings on the flawless Touch of my Hand to the Bollywood beat of her smash hit, Toxic and this album has truly left its mark in Britney's career as a withdrawal from others' creative control.
-
Feb 9, 2017Os instrumentais de 'In The Zone' são ótimos. Muitas canções do álbum são aclamadas por outras estrelas pop, e marcaram a vida de muitas pessoas, como Toxic, o maior hit do álbum. In The Zone marca uma nova etapa na vida de Britney
-
Jan 30, 2016Excellent album. Chaque titre est une pépite. Britney nous transporte dans une atmosphère sensuelle et sexuelle comme su le faire Madonna en son temps.
Coup de cœur: Tout l'album. -

Jan 28, 2017Um dos melhores albuns de todos os tempos, meu segundo preferido da britney só perde pro circus, como nao amar um album que tem "Toxic" "Shodow" e a lindissima "Everytime"
-
Jun 8, 2019One of my favorite albums out there.It shows how Britney matured and wrote songs which reflect to her life at that moment.A major game changer in the pop music.
-
Aug 26, 2016Um album bem diverisficado e sensual, a Britney deu o melhor de sí e fez uma biblia do pop onde cada versículo exala um cheiro que vai do bom ao maravilhoso! Um dos melhores albuns de 2004 até 2007

-
Aug 30, 2016One of the worst albums of the year thus far. It shows absolutely no artistic growth, the lyrics are elementary, and the vocals are non-existent. All in all, a terrible album. Collapse
-
Sep 10, 2016Sexy, personal, smooth and original. This is a truly masterpiece, including her most successful track to date "Toxic", her most famous duo "Me Against The Music" with Madonna. Plus, tracks that shows a complete different Britney, a girl that has find what she is and is not afraid to show it to the world.
-
Sep 11, 2016that album is really amazing and strong, shows to us a new britney spears, more sexy and powerful than ever,this show really good and amazing songs like toxic,breath on me, i got that and others that make this a great album one of the best of 2004(if not the best)
-
Jun 9, 2017If there was a way for me to convey how much I love this album, I would do so. This was a favorite of mine growing up, and it still sounds fresh with each listen. "Toxic" and "Everytime" are so haunting and wonderful and lovely and perfect; I can't say much else.
-
Nov 21, 2016Ok first off, let's get this one straight: This is NOT the pop bible. I'ts a fairly consistent and interesting record though. Toxic is excellent. Very good:Breathe on me, Touch of My Hand. Good: Showdown, Early Mornin', Outrageous.
-
Dec 8, 2018One of the very few cases (including Britney's herself in here) when, no matter how long it be, the work will remain current. It's 2018 and Toxic could be released today or tomorrow. Such a timeless magnificent work.

Oct 11, 2017Muito sexy, sensual e maduro. um álbum muito diversificado e muito bem produzido, indo de ritmos pop a ritmos misturados com o hip hop. além de ter hinos atemporais como a música Toxic.
-
Dec 4, 2020Wow, such a masterpiece! This is the most-britney album, she’s involved in 78% of song lyrics and it seems like she love this album, and i’m happy with that
-
Feb 5, 2018uno de sus mejores, definivamente nos queda claro el por que es la princesa del pop
-
Jun 15, 2018A masterpiece, I love all the songs. This album and Blackout are the best of Britney. My favorite songs are Toxic, Shadow, Oustrage, I Got That Boom Boom, Me Against The Music, Everytime. There is no bad song.
-
Aug 31, 2019In The Zone un álbum perfecto. Trayendo nuevos ritmos para la princesa del pop, contando con nada más y nada menos que con la reina del pop Madonna, con ritmos urbanos, baladas que te llagan al corazón como Everytime o Shadow, el iconico himno Toxic, una obra maestra en toda su expresión, donde Britney demostró sus dotes como escritora.
-
Mar 27, 2020It's an okay album. It has many nice songs (like its first three singles: "Me Again the Music", "Toxic", and "Everytime"). However besides the singles nothing is much memorable, and it's pretty old, and it got many nice drop-outs like "And Then We Kiss", which I'm in love with.
-
Jan 31, 2019Britney's best work (after Blackout). Toxic is such a timeless song, and so are the sexual BOPs Breathe On Me and Touch Of My Hand. She definitely hit her artistic peak around this time.

Jul 30, 2020Amazing and iconic album!
Definitely one of her best albums for sure.
Early Mornin' is my favorite on the album! -
Dec 5, 2021Album of the year, one of Britney's best projects. Ahead of it's time, definitely a must listen
-
Jul 3, 2019Greatest pop album of the 2000s I can’t stress is enough she really delivered one of the greatest pop songs of all time with toxic she really snapped.

Sep 1, 2019Even there’s a legend who named Blackout i still love this album more and i think this is her best. I love almost all of the tracks but especially Breathe on Me... i mean i guess i’ll still be listening it at the age of 80. I hope she came with some good stuff if she even wants to record an album.
-
Sep 17, 2019It did not age well, if it shows a forced album in many ways, unsteady vocals and the sequence is not good. But the album's good sensual proposition is clear, and he does it very well, with sexy and outrageous beats.

May 11, 2020El mejor album de Spears DE LEJOS! Ninguna canción de relleno, cohesivo, excelentes visuales, fresco y atemporal! Lo único malo es que se limita a 4 sencillos teniendo tanto potencial! Realmente muy buen álbum.
Awards & Rankings
-
Quite the most lifeless and unloved record to be released by an artist of Spears' global stature.
-
SpinA hectic sonic pileup. [Dec 2003, p.130]
-
Unlike previous Britney albums, In the Zone has no filler and no shoddy cover versions, just 57 varieties of blue-chip hit-factory pop.
