    Some songs save the album but most of them are really boring. It's good to see that she really takes control over her career by releasing this album independently, though.

    É um álbum bem intermediário, porém possuí musicas boas a única coisa que não me agrada totalmente são os instrumentais que acabam ofuscando a voz da Miley e algumas músicas que são descartáveis.
    Ainda bem que é um álbum experimental.

    There are some pretty good songs like Karen Don't Be Sad, Bang Me Box and 1 Sun but sometimes it sounds cheap and unlistenable as in Milky Milky Milk. I'm split so far on the album, we'll see if it grows. I do appreciate her releasing the album for free and her artistic growth, which is why I gave her more than 50%

    Essa nova surpreendente era da Miley, pode ser controversa por pontos positivos e negativos, é um álbum cativante por essa boa ação de disponibilizar um álbum com 23 canções de graça, mas não podemos negar que o álbum tem uma certa despreparação e talvez um pouco de falta de profissionalismo dela, ele foi construído de uma arriscada, um álbum caseiro com apenas 2 produtores de estilosEssa nova surpreendente era da Miley, pode ser controversa por pontos positivos e negativos, é um álbum cativante por essa boa ação de disponibilizar um álbum com 23 canções de graça, mas não podemos negar que o álbum tem uma certa despreparação e talvez um pouco de falta de profissionalismo dela, ele foi construído de uma arriscada, um álbum caseiro com apenas 2 produtores de estilos completamente distintos, vocais maravilhosos, letra tocantes, mas é visível a necessidade de uma produção maior em cada uma das faixas, um álbum de altos e baixos movido pela boa ação e despreparação proffsional.

    Miley Cyrus' surprise album represents a big departure from her previous radio-ready hits because of its more experimental feel. Miley Cyrus & Her Dead Petz is the hazy portrayal of the artist's soul and her love for peace and weed. The messy production and long 92-minute running time makes the album a bit of a slog to get through, although it does provide highlights like "Karen Don't BeMiley Cyrus' surprise album represents a big departure from her previous radio-ready hits because of its more experimental feel.

Fans of Cyrus' pop-centric music will be turned off by her new direction, but fans of more experimental pop might find something to like. Expand

    One of the most daring projects of this decade, but porrly executed. If it not had so many tracks, or even if they had been put in a more "flowing" order, it may had worked more. but its still great to have artist with artistic ambition like she had.

    Going in to this, after hearing about working with The Flaming Lips, i was not excited at any stage. But i was sorta surprised at this album - Miley had fun on this one, which executes in songs that she doesn't care. What let me down was the amount of tracks on it album (22 of them).

    I'm gonna say this album was ok. I liked how she experimented new styles but the only song that really stood out for me is Twinkle song, such an emotional track

    This new Miley Cyrus surprises me, it may be controversial in having an album of 23 songs for free, but this does not come to the fact that it is a bass album of the middleman. It seems its risky production and producers with destintos styles. However, it is noticeable to have good vocals and touching letters, and the higher production of each track.

    This album's main flaw is also its main positive aspect, it's random, doesn't make a lot of sense, but I personally appreciate that, it seems like she truly just went with what was on her head, making it very personal and unfiltered. But I can also see the sheer messiness dominating it.

    Miley Cyrus & Her Dead Petz needs an editor, but there's more than enough worthwhile music here to transcend shock value.

    Dead Petz isn't inherently ugly; in fact, there are many gorgeous moments. These moments tend to not go anywhere, though, and they are surrounded by mostly superfluous and even boring songs.

    While not everything here succeeds (much of the album is, in fact, a sprawling mess of ideas) Cyrus deserves a great deal of credit for unabashedly taking chances with her music, her image, both past and present, and what will ultimately be her controversial legacy within pop music.
