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, 2015This album is hands down her best EVER.
Every song has its strong individuality. Some songs such as Renegade Runaway, Church Bells, Chaser and Relapse are smashes. Choctaw County Affair is perfect.
She manages to give them life with her incredible voice.
So excited for this album! -
Oct 23, 2015Carrie gave us her best album to date. The stories on this album are full of emotions. Besides, her voice have never been used better and the production never fails.
-
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 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 23, 2015Wow, this is Carrie at her finest! Her best album to date. She teamed up with two new producers and it paid of! So many good and strong songs. Beautiful written. So co-writing half of the album consider it a job well done!

Oct 23, 2015This is Carrie's best album to date. the songs are cohesive and the experimentation on the production, content and the musical progression are just awesome. There are no filler songs too since every song can stand on its own, as reflected by the fact that people have different favorites. I love Choctaw Country Affair, Relapse, Heartbeat, Smoke Break, Church Bells, Chaser.... I love all the songs.

Oct 23, 2015Storyteller is definitely carrie's best album released to date. The melody, lyrics, phrasing, vocal and style is a complete perfect combo and you won't regret listening to it! With 13 chapters of story inside, you can get anything you want from uptempo country rock to sassy with attitude or soft and tender love song! God bless and thank you carrie!

Oct 23, 2015A must buy! Great to have Carrie back. This is her best album to date. Vocals once again spot on. She has ventured out of her comfort zone and it has paid off. This album will bring at least 5 #1 singles.

Oct 23, 2015This album is revolutionary not only for Carrie Underwood, but country music in general. This album marks a pivotal point in Mrs. Underwood's career, as her sound takes on a new, exciting direction and her lyrics evolve and tell the most captivating stories. If you're looking for filler tracks, you won't find them here. This will be a record that will be praised and remembered years from now.

Oct 23, 2015Absolutely the best album of Carrie Underwood's career. Everything about it is amazing, she did a remarkable job. Awesome production, great melodies, inspiring and crafty lyrics. A joy to listen to.
-
Oct 23, 2015This album may be TOO good for these times in music. There is not a single song I dislike, and that's saying something because I'm a picky person and I've always had a few songs I dislike on her previous albums. If I could give this more than 10/10 I would. Everything from the production to the lyrics are amazing and game-changing.
-
Oct 23, 2015Don't listen to those negative reviews. It's all probably just one person trying to hate on Carrie. That person obviously has too much time on his/her hands. Anyway, this album blew me away. I felt on top of this world listening to this album and I love every single song. Her lyrics and vocals have improved tremendously. This is Carrie's best album of her career so far!
-
Oct 23, 2015Storyteller is Underwood's greatest piece to date, hands down. Starts off strong with Renegade Runaway and finishes perfectly with her most personal track of her career with What I Never Knew I Always Wanted. This album left me wanting more - AMAZING.

Oct 23, 2015I've watched Carrie mature from the awkward "farmbot" at her AI audition to the polished performer she is today and Story Teller is the culmination of everything she has thus far achieved in her ten year career. Excellent album...5 stars.
-
Oct 23, 2015Wow this album is fantastic! This is Carrie best album she has put out by miles. She only gets better each album. There is not one song that I would skip.
-
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.

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 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 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 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. -
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! -
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!!
-
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.

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").
