    just the best somophore album ever, Olivia just killed with her vulnerability and angry in her songs all looks so good mixed with some funny sounds e a lilltle bit of rock, definitely one of the best albums of 2023

    The clear influence of many artists is involved in this album. The project could have been a big deal IF they would've released it back in the 2000s.

    Industry plant records more music written by a team of 40+ year old white men in a corner office at Geffen, intended to be basic enough to appeal to the masses but also be sad/emotional/angsty enough for preteen girls.

    Olivia Rodrigo is a industry plant and it shows. The album got teased by herself and her team as more mature and grown up when in reality it is the same theme singing about boys now it is about a different one. Really good job so original.

    The album looks like it's a sour copy. You can't see evolution in the vocals. guts isn't bad, but it's far from good.

    To be honest, I am not disappointed because she delivered exactly what I thought she would give us: boring songs. Hopefully, she will evolve on her next project.

    This is worse than sour... It sounds the same as her older songs and there is no artistic evolution. I expected more tbh. The lyricism is something a 13 year old would write and the production has some good parts but her voice and the production don’t fit to the rock/grunge influence.

    I'm sure any young girl who loves her will disagree, but imo olivia is not worth the hype, at least not from a musical pov. artists like conan gray are doing a better job at creating something that is really a work of art, but maybe this is just a expression and doesn't aim to be good, timeless music. everyone has different tastes, this one was not for me, i really wished for better songwriting, "compliments like bullets on my skin" just isn't good enough for me.    … Expand

    I think it’s a fantastic album overall, it captures EXACTLY what that genre is supposed to be. Why not a 10/10? I don’t know actually, i feel some songs could have been better in some little ways, but you know.. a 9/10 is also a GREAT score, it is almost perfect. I have like 7 favourite songs. So it’s pretty damn good. And i pretty much like all songs. So yeah. Good album!

    The brilliance of this album cannot be overstated. We’re back in the 90s and 2000s and God do I love it. This is what pop albums used to sound like. But it’s not just nostalgic, wonderfully angsty pop-punk/pop-rock. It’s also folk (“lacy”) and New Wave (“pretty isn’t pretty”). You hear elements of Taylor, Avril, P!nk, early Katy, Sara Bareilles, Hole.

    A gorgeous return from Olivia that not only sees her style evolve but her heart more open. Holding nothing back whether its songwriting or operatics,GUTS is a revelation that what doesn’t kill you might make you stronger. Higlights: all American **** him back,ballad of a home schooled girl, vampire, bad idea,right?

    The metacritic reviews are overrated LOL. This is just a favourable album tho. But I should say the album is mainly influenced of Avril Lavigne, Paramore and Katy Perry (One of the Boys era). And I could agree that most songs in the album are SOUR's leftover. It's just her voice and lyrics that stand out.

    First listen: I think I enjoyed SOUR better on its first listen. We'll see how it goes on subsequent listens.
    Musically, I think this is more mature. Overall, lyrically there hasn't been much movement. OR has lots of room for growth and I look forward to it.

    I think the lead singles are the strongest on the album. "bad idea right?" is spot on.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is a good sophomore album and she serve no lies. However, there are too many skip that literally not repeatable, as of now. I saw some samples from 1D, Avril, and even Girl in Red. She overused the way it starts from sad/soft to rock. I like teenage dream, all-american... and get him back! tho. I admit, she's somehow good in lyrics, track listing, and even choosing what will be singles, however, this is good but I feel like Sour is way more good and some sophomore like Happier Than Ever or Harry's album that bring marks to everyone. At the end, sad to say but I still see Taylor and Lana resemblance/inspired on this album. Lastly, why she always choose to be the victim in her songs, she always been betrayed, and too many toxic lyrics and hate. Why can't she just make songs from her heart?

    is Olivia Rodrigo the next great american dynasty?

    Olivia just got out of the the stage in life where you think you know everything and have it all under control, and got into the stage where you basically know nothing... that forced her to mature up and be more open towards fields she hasn't played in before. The songwriting on this album is such a step up from Olivia's debut album,    is Olivia Rodrigo the next great american dynasty?

    Olivia just got out of the the stage in life where you think you know everything and have it all under control, and got into the stage where you basically know nothing... that forced her to mature up and be more open towards fields she hasn't played in before.

    The songwriting on this album is such a step up from Olivia's debut album, SOUR.
    The honesty and rawness is impeccable, the small references to her past / general pop cloture references are so clever and perfectly and seamlessly inserted into the songs.
    She smartened up, she studied and learned a lot, and it simply shows all over her new music, adding so many layers of emotions and creativity.
    With that being said, there are a bit too many repetitions of lyrics in some songs, which seemed unnecessary and avoidable.

    The production is great, but I wish there'd be more diversity, because some songs sounds a bit similar to each other.

    'GUTS' is a great sophomore album by this very talented girl, feels like a big, cleverer sister to 'SOUR'.
    Key-word 'GROWTH'.

    Rodrigo is thinking about her age a lot in a few of these new songs, considering the precipice she’s on as teendom gives way to adulthood, without writing anything quite so cloying as a full-scale “not a girl, not yet a woman” anthem. “I know my age and I act like it,” she sings in the opening number, “All-American **** a rocker in which    what a **** album!!! she did it again and BETTER

The singer is being somewhat tongue-in-cheek in that irreverent opener, but she’s on to a big part of her appeal, to date: that a lot of her stuff has been flagrantly about being an adolescent, without trying to sound too seasoned before her time. The semi-self-effacing rudeness continues with “Ballad of a Homeschooled Girl” — which is certainly a contender for the ballsiest song title of the year, for starters. There’s no letdown in hearing the actual tune, a take on terminal social awkwardness that turns out to be virtually her tribute to Nirvana.

    Well done Mrs Rodrigo! I knew her second project would be worth the wait. She's really owning her craft and doesn't need to follow mainstream trends to deliver great songs. A real songwriter and performer. Haters need to take notes and maybe one day release some good music of their own before they walk on by saying this album isn't good. Take those expectations and shove it cause Rodrigo slays.

    This album is undoubtedly a great lyrical, honest and emotional performance. Olivia Rodrigo did a great job

    'Guts' is basically just a bunch of leftovers from 'Sour', which was already boring given it was just your average cheesy teenage album about an annoying ex trying to make sure her old boyfriend is portrayed as the biggest monster ever for committing the capital sin of breaking up with her.

    This album is just a compilation of Disney Channel pop-rock rejects about a now grown teen taking a love delusion too far. Sorry Olivia, but writing your own lyrics is far from enough for being a good artist, especially with such a mediocre and obviously studio edited singing voice.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Loved the sound of the album, sound a little similar to her latest work but its more punk-rock. My issues is the lyrics of the album. Some songs like (all American b and vampire), had a good lyricsm but the rest are basic.… Expand

    I feel bits of innovation in some tracks, but it all feels like a continuation of SOUR, something that could've been on their previous album and would be the same.

    I love this album more then Sour. So much less ballad heavy and is more fun. And I love the Pop/Punk or Pop/Rock throughout many of the songs.

    OLIVIA RODRIGO'S BEST ALBUM.Sour surprised everyone, being a charming project full of very good songs, but Guts surpasses itself in every way, having spectacular songs and a very good order. I love u Liv.

    Si me preguntan, la principal fortaleza de este álbum es la composición que Olivia maneja: se observa un crecimiento en su forma de escribir y más de uno se sentirá identificado con los temas abordados en las canciones.

    La producción también resalta, se escucha limpia y recuerda mucho a los trabajos del pop-rock de artistas como Avril Lavigne, Ashlee Simpson o incluso Katy Perry en sus inicios.

    Mi principal problema con este disco es el título que bien podría pasar como un clickbait: "Guts" (vísceras) evoca sonidos intensos, quizá crudos, pero buena parte de las canciones son baladas y en algunos casos recuerdan demasiado a su era anterior.

    Varios de los temas también se sienten largos. Canciones como "Lacy" o "Logical" se vuelven monótonas y no les encuentro valor de replay. Simplemente no son mi copa de té.

    El disco me parece decente, pero que poco aportará a la carrera de Olivia a largo plazo. Será interesante ver su siguiente trabajo porque creo que tiene mucho talento como compositora; eso sí, agradecería que ya suelte el color morado. Equis de.    … Expand

    Generally a good sophomore album from Olivia, she continues to show her growth in her sound and dabbling into new genres. However, some of the rock influences sound repetitive throughout the album, which could have been done better. My favourites are making the bed, the grudge, and teenage dream.

    First listen - I was not sure, but now that I've been through the album 5 times, I love it. I wanna dance and sing. She knows how to express how it feels to be a girl in her twenties. Amazing lyrics.

    Cada canción de ese álbum es una MARAVILLA y sabiendo que todos los segundos álbumes tienen una maldición
    Para Olivia Rodrigo eso no es un obstáculo y supo esquivarlos muy bien
    Y no me sorprendería que esta joya sea nominada a ‘Mejor álbum’ en los GRAMMYS

    A strong follow-up to Sour. It has pretty great production value, a crisp, dynamic sound and Olivia is such a talented songwriter, lots of catchy songs while still perfectly conveying different emotions through them.

    Eu acho a olivia muito sem sal e básica, mas apesar disso tive grandes esperanças de que 'GUTS' seria um bom álbum, mas infelizmente me decepcionei bastante. A composição é fraca, os photoshoots são feios demais e as músicas além de chatas poderiam facilmente serem faixas bônus de 'SOUR'. E sinceramente, não consigo entender como os críticos estão dando notas altas para este álbum.

    “Teenage Dream” recycles a song title of Katy Perry’s and echoes a twisty-turny melody of Lana Del Rey’s. Yet Rodrigo’s emotional presence is so strong throughout “Guts” — so believable even at its most unrelatable — that you never lose the sense of a specific young person navigating a trial of her own making.

    GUTS is emphatic proof that Rodrigo isn't just good for a kid -- she's grown into an artist with plenty of things to say, and the confidence and eloquence to say them her way.
