Nov 8, 2018This isn’t even music. It’s an over produced slug fest of the most cliche sickening elements of country music. No wonder her sales get worse and worse.
-
Nov 8, 2018Yawn. Does she ever sing with real emotion? No. She’s a faux artist. There are no good songs on this dreadful album.
-
Nov 8, 2018Another terrible album by Carrie. She is one of the worst songwriters. She should stick to singing. She can’t write and she really can’t act. Embarrassment to country music.

May 8, 2016Carrie is at her best! I can see a little of rock n roll here and that worked very well. Dirty Laundry, Church Bells and Smoke Break are the best songs!
-
Jan 16, 2016Hands down, Carrie Underwood's best album to date. Hard to pick a favorite from the album since it was so well done. From start to finish, great songs all around. I wouldn't be surprised to see Storyteller snag a few Grammy nominations.

Dec 18, 2015I've listened several times trying to like this album. I don't. I really love Carrie's voice and have purchased several of her songs. However, I won't from this one. They don't appeal to me at all. I wish she would use other types of songs and other song writers.

Dec 8, 2015Absolutely one of the best album in 2015!! I believe Carrie is one of the best ever in spite of her loyalty to country! She is a great country singer in this world!!
-
Dec 4, 2015A solid effort from Carrie Underwood that not only shows the ascending brilliancy of her albums, but also tells how much she developed as a person as well.
-
Nov 24, 2015It's her best album so far, because it admits the concept she follows. Carrie has never made the intimate personal type of singer, but in this work she is really a storyteller, she presents beautiful stories with an impersonal character. Voice is really good as always and her songwriting has grown a bit.

Nov 6, 2015Must-listen:
Dirty Laundry, Church Bells, Heartbeat, Chaser, Relapse, What I Never Knew I Always Wanted
If you love rock stuffs, go for Renegade Runaway and Mexico.
I love this album a lot. No fillers. Play the whole album, everyday! -
Nov 4, 2015Álbum maravilhoso, boas músicas com histórias que dariam belos clipes, vejo tudo o que a própria Carrie disse, cada música se liga historicamente. Perfeito sem duvidas, um dos melhores álbum dela.

Oct 31, 2015It's probably my favourite Carrie Underwood album as it's very cohesive with a great replay factor. The production is very good. I was sceptical after hearing Smoke Break first but actually it turns out that most tracks on the album are far better than Smoke Break and it doesn't really do the album as lead single justice in my opinion. Church Bells is one of the stand out tracks for me.
-
Oct 30, 2015Storyteller is arguably Underwood's best album to date. It clearly indicates Underwood's improvement as a writer. The albums has more than a dozen single worthy tracks, which is amazing. "Clock Don't Stop","Renegade Runaway","Relapse","Heartbeat","Dirty Laundry" are some standout tracks.
Storyteller clearly deserves a Best Country Album nod at the 2017 Grammys. -
Oct 29, 2015Great stuff, her best album. I initially found smoke break sub par when it first came out, but on hearing it in context of the album it sounds much better. Glad Carrie is upping her game when it comes to songs and not sticking with a particular formula. And her risks have been worth it, its a solid album.

Oct 26, 2015it was great and so much higher than i thougt.
this album more diffrent than her older albums, including more pop and rock in this one and these makes it more special and fun.
one of the best album that her ever made and one of the best country albums of the year. -

Oct 25, 2015I couldn't believe my ears. Carrie has come a long way in the last ten years. This album shows much growth from her previous material and this will redefine her entire career. This will keep her relevant for another decade!
-
Oct 25, 2015This album is what I never knew I always wanted. I didn't know there was a hole, something missing in my soul, 'til this album filled it up with its love.

Oct 24, 2015As a vocalist, Carrie is certainly one of those rare voices, regardless of genre, that can make the hairs stand up on your arm. This is going to be the best album 2015.

Oct 23, 2015This is the best album to grace country music in years! Wow! Carrie-- you really surpassed my expectations and blew me away! Brilliant writing, amazing vocals, and every song is a BIG HIT waiting to happen! Congrats! INCREDIBLE ALBUM!
-
Oct 23, 2015Exquisitely crafted, brilliantly executed. Calling the production flawless is saying too little. Calling the lyrics elegantly interwoven is saying too little. Calling the vocals unmistakably audacious is saying too little. Calling this album the best work of Carrie's career is not saying enough.

Nov 18, 2015Carrie’s never been in better voice, but a little more control in the production would have served her well.
-
Nov 3, 2015That’s Storyteller as a whole: expertly arranged, dense without overwhelming the force of its captain.
-
Oct 23, 2015As with much high-gloss, high-compression pop, the heavy-handed production gets fatiguing after a while, even when Underwood transcends it (see the corny yet undeniable letter to Daddy "The Girl You Think I Am").
