    I'm sort of baffled by why this is any better regarded than your run of the mill country album from 2017. There isn't anything terribly original, and if we're talking low points, "Country" was in the top 10 worst songs I heard all year. "Bless My Heart" had a little bit of cheekiness and sass that I appreciate in country, but most of the album was sort of devoid of personality.

Gotta give this a 4 for being average with the abysmal "Country" weighing it down by 1. Remember not very long ago when we were seeing great female country acts like Pistol Annies on the first page of Metacritic? What's changed?… Expand

    She may emphasize her ties to the past but she's intent on expanding the tradition, turning country music into a bolder, more inclusive place, and that desire is what makes Wrangled such a compelling album.

    Presley’s latest album is a masterclass in songwriting that shows the singer’s limitless potential.

    The raging country-punk counterblast “Country” unleashes her disgust at the country establishment’s backward attitude towards women. Elsewhere, her sympathies remain firmly with the downtrodden and desperate, as in her straight-talking depiction of teen pressures faced in “High School”, a bruised parade of class clowns and cheerleaders, pep pills and pregnancy.
