This is insane. Honestly not a fan of folk so I’m interested to see if that is what she’s doing, and if so how far she’s going to lean into it.

A whole album?!? What?! And judging by everything obvious with it, it’s a folk album! Will it be good or boring? Looking forward to listening.

Why not. I'll give it a spin. I was always rooting for artist to keep trying new sounds(for them)

OMFG YESSSS
Literally can’t wait!! Absolutely 100% here for this kind of sound from her. Fingers crossed it’ll sound like “Safe and Sound” or even some of the more lowkey moments on Red

On a more serious note, I'm really intrigued about Aaron Dessner's involvement in the majority of the tracks - I'm happy that she got to work with him since she loves The National.

I can't. I just can't. Omg. I'm so excited. What a great surprise to wake up to. This album is sounding exactly like what I wanted to hear from her. I'm ugly crying right now. Eeeeeeek.

As previously mentioned, really hoping this is along the lines of Safe and Sound because I have been DYING for Taylor to do something back to her country roots 😭👏🏼! I can’t wait!!

Great news to wake up to! I don't know how much of it will be "my style" since it's folklore, but I'm sure there'll be something on it that I'll enjoy.

I freaked the f*#! out when I woke up to this news! A new Taylor Swift album of ANY genre is exactly what I need in life right now. Taylor is one of those rare artists who can make music of any genre and completely nail it, so I see no reason why this won't be the same. I didn't even like country music before her, and she completely opened me up to the genre. I'll echo those who say that I hope we get some sounds a la "Safe and Sound" which is one of my all-time favorites by Taylor, although with 16 (or 17) new tracks, I'm sure we'll be getting a diversity of sounds. This is so nuts considering she's always waited 2-3 years to put out a new album (ok slightly less than 2 for Lover), and now we get one less than a year later, and with so many new songs?! It just goes to show what we already knew, that she is a remarkably prolific songwriter and could probably put out a new album of excellent material every year if she felt like it. This honestly makes up for no Loverfest or "Cruel Summer" as I've got the soundtrack to the next year of my life waiting to be released in 14 hours. Let's go!
Also I'm assuming the sound will be very different from her previous albums which is something I love Taylor for. She is ever evolving and knows not to just repeat herself.

I'm here for folk Taylor. Also, I loved Lover and am slightly sad to see the era coming to a close. But, nevertheless I am thrilled that we are getting new music.

Also, I gotta say that I love the aesthetics of the cover. The outdoor/woodsy black & white photos is the perfect aesthetics for an album called Folklore.

Excited to hear what she's done. Folk music is hit or miss with me but it's Tay so I'm sure I will like it.

Taylor is an artist I've actually grown to really like and root for over the years, and I really loved a lot of Lover, so I'm definitely ready for this! Hope it's not too folk-folk, cause I'm not that into it in general, but then again if the music is, essentially, good why not? Bring it on! :)

Am here for this direction, sonically and visually. Bring it on, Tay.

I feel like folk music usually means songs are longer (could be making that up) but I hope that's the case.

This could be amazing but I probably won't enjoy most of it, but could go either way I think

Is this her return to Country? Looks like she is ditching pop for this one. I’m not a Taylor fan, but I will take a listen. Exciting times! This year we got Gaga, Katy, Dua, Kylie, Taylor and Beyonce! The gays won this year! We are only missing Adele and Rihanna. And it brought The Chicks and Alanis out of long hiatuses plus there's still the pending Janet release of Black Diamond.
