Miley Cyrus - "Plastic Hearts" review (opinion)

[Mr. Cavill]

Miley's new album due to be released this Friday 27th November has surfaced online.  Labels normally send physical copies to music stores in advance, hence the leak.

Links will not be posted for obvious reasons. 

The album sounds fresh, promising, and very Miley! The first half of the album is superior, in my opinion. I was expecting a bit more rock but overall a very pleasant surprise from Miley! Excited to stream in on Spotify this Friday!

‘Plastic Hearts’ tracklist:
1. ‘WTF Do I Know’ - Pop-rock track; not my favourite. Sounds like sth I've heard before. Great album filler imo.
2. ‘Plastic Hearts’ - Another album filler; great vocals.
3. ‘Angels Like You’ - Amazing ballad. Her voice here is wow! Would love to see it live!
4. ‘Prisoner’ feat. Dua Lipa - Perfection.
5. ‘Gimme What I Want’ - A favourite one. The bass here hits soo good. The pre-chorus is amazing. Love the melody of the chorus.
6. ‘Night Crawling’ feat. Billy Idol - My definite favourite one! What a great pop-rock song infused with some 80's/90's sound! Wish there were more songs like this one.
7. ‘Midnight Sky’ - Perfection.
8. ‘High’ - Country ballad. Great vocals. Not a fan of it though. 
9. ‘Hate Me’ - Album filler.
10. ‘Bad Karma’ feat. Joan Jett - It's a grower, I suppose. Not my favourite one though.
11. ‘Never Be Me’ - Ballad. Album filler.
12. ‘Golden G String’ - Another ballad. I guess a great way to end the album.

Overall, I'm not sure how to feel about this album. She promoted it as an homage to Metallica so I was expecting a bit more rock sound. It's basically a combination of pop, rock, country, blues. As I said, I prefer the first half of the album. The album has potential though. I'd give it a 6.5/10.

Don't get me wrong. It is a good album. I was just getting hyped up for a rock album and instead got something else. And also I'm not into country. Some of the ballads are good though. Just a bit too much in my opinion.

As someone who loved Miley's first two albums maybe I'll like this if it leans onto the pop territory. I'm expecting some 80s sounding songs.

Oh yeah, it does lean onto pop but not Who owns my hearty type of pop. The energetic songs sound good! I think Miley could release up to 5-6 singles, including Midnight Sky and Prisoner, if the album becomes successful (that's half of the album I like lol).
