Jul 15, 2017This is an album that the Lorde knew how to dare easily, some songs have the facility to have a perfect finish, but others lack a finish that is very important, as is the case of Sober. Intelligent music that deserves more quality.

Jun 16, 2017The album is so overrated. But I can still see the album winning several Grammys in the next year's Academy Awards - the judges just love these types of music.

Jun 23, 2017I just don't get the hype about this album....Ive listened to it 3 times and all I hear is a average to good pop album by a very average vocalist. This is definitely not exciting music to my ears.

Jun 16, 2017Realmente muito bom, porém inferior ao Pure Heroine. Além disso, contém algumas contradições ao seu último álbum. Ademais a Lorde não deixa de ser uma grande artista.

Jul 3, 2017Never been a fan of the genre Lorde associates with, but was pleasantly surprised by this one. It is filled with somewhat generic pop-tripes, yet it adds something new in its sensuality and, well, its melodrama.

Jul 10, 2017There are no gimmicks. There’s nothing screaming for acceptance. Melodrama is a raw, real album under its sparkly clean production. One written for the masses but able to resonate with each individual listener.

Q MagazineJul 6, 2017Lorde's biggest achievement is retaining her emotional insight into herself and her generation despite her utterly transformed life. [Aug 2017, p.100]

Jul 6, 2017Still only 20 years old, Lorde could have been forgiven for floundering under the weight of expectation. Instead she’s reasserted her status as today’s ultimate alt-pop artist with a record that balances the contemporary with the classic in typically immaculate style.
