    Riveting and easily her magnum opus. 30 packs the best vocal performances with the most diverse production from Adele. It's revealing, heavy and strays far from monotoneity.

    Riveting and easily her magnum opus. 30 packs the best vocal performances with the most diverse production from Adele. It's revealing, heavy and strays far from monotoneity.

    Track by track analysis:
    Strangers by nature... Slow and sorrowful bit doesn't prepare is enough for the onslaught that follows.

    Easy on me... Reeling and compels the audience to take what she has to offer with ease, because she knows what she has readied.

    My little love... Very emotional and intimate, the recordings>>> and the subtlety the whole track holds is very pleasing.

    Cry your heart out... Sad songs with uptempo beats are so underrated.

    Oh my God... The onset of this track is very jolting, and doesn't even prepare one enough for the beauty that comes after.

    Can I get it... The harmonies geez! The way the beat fades to just guitar strums in the chorus and picks up again with the drums is so beautiful. We Stan a queen that isn't linear.

    I drink wine... Classic ballad Adele.

    All night parking... Did Adele just give us a jazz and trap leaning song in one track?!

    Woman like me... Cute

    Hold on... The fading vocals to the chorus is genius! And the massive belt to the bridge's belt>>>

    To be loved... Big and a monstrous vocal moment! She spat out all her hurt and pain!

    Love is a game... A graceful way to close the curtains.

    The album we all need after this pandemic. This truly feels like a gift to humanity. Lyrically her most raw and unfiltered work, it is pure, unbridled vulnerability. Even more, the production and instrumentation is more polished than ever. This is more than deserving of all the praise it’s getting, truly a masterpiece.

    Adele is back with 30, which in my opinion, is one of the best albums of this year, with the beautiful voice of adele, and songs that although they are not as memorable as other songs by the artist, leaves you with the sweet taste you heard a great album

    what an emotional album. For me, this is her stronger album so far. The vocal was absolutely amazing. Adele sounds ferocious on this album. The melody, the story behind it. When People say her album sound the same, I think they're not listening to the whole album. It's so experimental and sounds different.

    This whole album allows us to feel the same feelings that Adele felt during the process of her divorce: the guilt, the regret, the rage, the hope of recovering and move forward, the afraid of losing her child's love and, of course, the sadness of breaking her own family because her own happiness; and, in some way, allows us, the childs of divorce parents, understand easier the cause ofThis whole album allows us to feel the same feelings that Adele felt during the process of her divorce: the guilt, the regret, the rage, the hope of recovering and move forward, the afraid of losing her child's love and, of course, the sadness of breaking her own family because her own happiness; and, in some way, allows us, the childs of divorce parents, understand easier the cause of that decision and comprehend the divorce in a different way to what media shows us about it. It is interesting and admirable how, after a long time being absent and not doing any kind of music works, as she said in one of her recent interviews, Adele is capable of transform all that pain, all that overwhelming amount of diverse feelings, into a concordant masterpiece like "30" is, and projecting all those emotions into us, even if we had not lived experiences like marriage, motherhood or divorce. The lyrics and the melody in every single one of the songs of "30" are just majestic, and the boldness of experiencing new sounds never used by her in the past exceed my expectatives. When "Easy On Me" came out, I loved it but I felt it would be very similar in terms of melody to past songs of the artist, but during the CBS show all those fears dissapear instantly and it made me to wish even harder to explore the new proposal that Adele had for us, and, as I said, I was not ready for such perfect masterpiece. I really loved it. I do not know if it is possible, but in my opinion, more of one song of this album deserve to be nominated Song Of The Year in the Grammys Awards and definitively "30" is going to be the winner of the highest award of the mentioned ceremony. Finally, her vocals are a way better than they were in the past: more control, more dynamics in it and a lot more of -healthy- powerness. Expand

    Adele is amazing with her new style, which we have never seen from her before.

    Adele simply gave not the best album of her career but one of the best this decade. 30 shows a new and experimental side of Adele without losing what Adele already is. The way she speaks to us about her divorce is like we are the ones who are getting divorced. Never tought that Adele could mix a sound so classy yet so refreshing, listen to 30 takes me to the 60's yet I feel I'm in 2021.

    Despite her albums being snapshots, sometimes a little more diversity in subject matter would be a good thing. Ultimately, while some intriguing risks have been taken, 30 is probably the weakest, as well as conversely the most intimate and in many ways bravest, Adele album to date.

    The richest and most musically adventurous album of her career.

    There are no glaring missteps, and it’s generally a very good effort from a singer who could have crumbled under the pressure of heightened expectations, but instead continues on the path she forged for herself.
