    This album gave the fans EXACTLY WHAT THEY WANTED.

    Screaming,a lot of sass,slow sad songs,energy starting the album and finishing it,a little bit of anger in Déjà Vu and finally PUNK ROCK.

    Lyrically the album is not bad and fits its theme,
    gave fans EVERYTHING they asked for.

    Um dos melhores álbuns da Avril em anos. O que o respeito a liberdade criativa de um artista não faz?!
    Avril prometeu, e entregou muito.

    Um dos melhores álbuns. Avril fez um ótimo trabalho. Todas as músicas produzidas por John Feldmann que eu já escutei são ótimas e ele fez um ótimo trabalho na produção de Love Sux. A gravadora creio que ajudou muito incentivando Avril a seguir seu coração e não o que achavam que iria ser "hit". Estou muito animada e feliz por mais um álbum icônico da rainha do pop rock.

    It's actually a total renewal if you take into account all of her albums; it's a really powerful album, the upbeat, but also with a message of overcoming everything that ever put you through a rough time and end off that chapter.

    Tough production. Hard riffs. The album is a new style of pop-punk, and has the soul of pure pop-punk like in the 90s & early to mid-2000s. Avril's voice has evolved. I can line it up along with Let Go - UMS - TBDT. Travis Barker playing on the drums giving you an energetic feeling that serves your album experience in a superior way.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The album already delivers what it promises, which is all about to explode on its first track (Cannonball). "Love Sux" is a recording that directs an explosion of emotion, heartbreaking jokes and nostalgia.
    In this recording, we find all the nuances of an unsuccessful relationship that ended, but left damage along the way.
    The album doesn't leave a linear story about where it all started, but it does show that Lavigne doesn't give second chances when someone hurts her (Bite Me) and that she can get even (Bois Lie).
    However Love can be Sux when we find songs that show toxic relationships (Love It When You Hate Me, Déjà Vu, F.U.) and how exhausting and draining it can be (Avalanche).
    But luckily all is not lost, as Avril shows that in this album she can give love a chance again (All I Wanted, Kiss Me Like The World Is Ending) and also the fears of getting hurt again (Dare To Love Me) and the last track (Break of a Heartache) ends the same way it started, but Lavigne ends affectionately with an Avril-style goodbye.    … Expand

    I really liked it! It feels like she turned Everything back but you into an album and I couldn't have asked for anything better. She said she wanted ''raw and live'' guitar and drums and that's what she delivered, she knows the genre and it shows.

    It's not an album that takes you back in time and makes you think you're in a teen movie from the 00's, it's energetic, lively, modern, with sharp instrumentals, which delivers the singer's version in powerful and well-used vocals. The voice is a little thin in the mix, I believe it will be even better live. Avril delivered what she promised.

    No, it's not deep or profound, and at times it's hard to believe that this is all coming from the mind of a 37-year-old woman. But to nostalgic fans such as myself, this is easily her best album since The Best Damn Thing and I absolutely LOVE IT. Expect teenage fun and you will not be disappointed. Cannot wait for the next one!

    É um bom álbum sim, não é melhor que os 3 primeiros e muito menos que seu antecessor, mas Avril vocalmente volta impecável.
    Neste álbum temos a volta do Pop-punk que tornou a Avril tão conhecida e prestigiada, porém as faixas são muito superficiais e extremamente curtas em relação ao que nós nos acostumamos a ver da AL.

    Lavigne's return to big, hooky pop punk is certainly a welcome one, and the record stands as perhaps her best effort in over a decade because of it, but overly polished production that favors hip-hop and electropop sounds over punk and surface-level lyrics that feel overly juvenile and immature for an artist pushing 40 can't help but cause "Love Sux" to feel like a nostalgia-reliant relicLavigne's return to big, hooky pop punk is certainly a welcome one, and the record stands as perhaps her best effort in over a decade because of it, but overly polished production that favors hip-hop and electropop sounds over punk and surface-level lyrics that feel overly juvenile and immature for an artist pushing 40 can't help but cause "Love Sux" to feel like a nostalgia-reliant relic of the past more than anything more forward-looking.

    Só conseguimos sentir um ponto alto nesse álbum, e está em 'Dare To Love Me', penúltima faixa. Ali vemos a diferença em vocal e produção (talvez até mesmo em composição).

    Sem mais delongas, 'Love Sux' é um projeto que reflete adolescentes de coração partido que não sabem mais o que fazer, a não ser "xingar o amor" e dizer que odeia a pessoa que não as querem. Algo contraditório para Avril Lavigne, cantora de 37 anos.    … Expand

    I’m sure this album is supposed to be a fun album and is a chance for Avril to relive her youth but her first three albums aren’t even pop punk as much as we remember. The only real pop punk songs she has is sk8er boi and girlfriend and the rest are soft rock ballads. I think the label of avril ‘reliving her roots’ is just a chance of hoping on the tiktok pop punk craze to get a trend

    Lyrics are terrible and so rushed, but it sounds too catchy and good. Love Sux can be a bit similar to one another at times and a little too short for 12 songs, but it certainly is a return-to-form of some sorts for the "Compilated" singer.

    Avril Lavigne is away from the "pop star image" and makes harder music. Only is that far away from the style that made you famous.

    I love that Avril is back in her element. Bite Me is pretty good and I’m obsessed with the black and red aesthetic. But, I wouldn’t rank this album as her best. It’s probably above Let Go but below everything else for sure. This album reminds me of music younger artists today make as inspiration of Avril’s most iconic work…

After my high expectations and love for the lead single "Bite Me", I am sad. I am all for a pop-punk, emo-type revival in music, so long as the musicians are executing it well and making great music. The only modern one I listen to is Willow, which even after that horrendous "Emo Girl" song, she seems to be faltering. I hope Avril can re-evaluate and show more growth for her next LP. I seem to be alone in my opinions, considering this is the highest user score of the year thus far, I guess people love mediocrity.… Expand

    There are two Avrils. By far I prefer the Goodbye Lullaby poppy Avril, not the punky Avril. This is mostly retro punky Avril now also featuring postmodern hip hop accompaniment by artists I strive to avoid.

    Even if Lavigne intended to make something short and silly, it speaks to a larger mainstream conversation of the supposed limits surrounding women’s ability to remain interesting in pop culture. Love might indeed suck, but we know that Avril is capable of so much more.

    The uncharitable take would be that a 37-year-old still writing lyrics in txt spk is quite cringe, but the truth is that Love Sux – three-minute banger after three-minute banger, complete with classic Lavigne “woah-oh-ohs” – is exuberant enough to have you slipping on a pair of Vans and partying like it’s 2002.

    Across the board, Lavigne sounds like she’s having good, real fun for the first time in ages. If the album is following a major pop-punk trend in pop music, it also serves as a reminder that Lavigne helped shape so much of that sound in the first place.
