May 22, 2014After my third listen, I definitely think Unrepentant Geraldines is Tori’s best album since Scarlet’s Walk (sorry, American Doll Posse), maybe even one of her best ever. I’m so happy.
-
May 22, 2014Unrepentant Geraldines is probably the best Tori Amos album in 10 years. I was really worried it was gonna suck after the **** album art and not initially talking to the first single but very pleasantly surprised. Some real gems on there, Wild Way, 16 Shades Of Blue and Promise and my faves on first listen.

May 22, 2014I am SO in love with this album. It ranks just under Little Earthquakes, Boys for Pele, and From the Choirgirl Hotel. I actually like it better than Under the Pink and Scarlett’s Walk. (and I LOVE those two albums very much)
Promise (Tori’s duet with her daughter Tash) just makes me tear up. I can not stop listening. -

Apr 18, 2015Best album since Scarlet's Walk. The melodies harken back to the days of Little Earthquakes but there is also a maturity and honesty in the lyrics that is just beautiful.

May 13, 2014This is an absolutely amazing album and a total return to form for Tori, and the fans seem to be responding accordingly. She is back to making emotional and powerful songs from the heart. Despite her post-Scarlet's Walk albums being passable, this one takes her back to her brilliance of her old days. Long-time Tori fans won't be diss appointed, nor will new fans.

May 16, 2014One of the best albums she's released. The piano-driven songs are compelling while songs like Rose Dover and Trouble's Lament are interesting. The bonus tracks are equally good (especially Dixie).

May 18, 2014What a great album, reminds me of her first album, Her voice is solid and you can feel her hit the keys of the piano. Makes my hair stand on end, in a good way.

Nov 11, 2021The latter half of Tori’s discography is so much better than the general population who’ve listened to her music give it credit for. This album feels like and sounds old school Tori but also with the lightness of a lot of her newer stuff. The darker piano ballads like “Oysters” and “Selkie” are breathtakingly beautiful.

Jun 22, 2016Tori Amos brings back her early appeal and even branches into a more modern take on her own musical style. The highlight of this album is hearing her sing a duet with her daughter Natasha on "Promise".
-
May 22, 2014Unrepentant Geraldines, that’s kind of a return to form for her, filled with the baroque piano-led pop/rock that made her a mainstay in the first place. Her lyrics are smart and her voice has a real edge to it that matches well with her top-tier songwriting.
