TAYLOR SWIFT - EVERMORE (GREEN VINYL/2LP)

Evermore (stylized in all lowercase) is the ninth studio album by the American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift. It was surprise-released on December 11, 2020, through Republic Records. Swift conceived Evermore as a "sister record" to its predecessor, Folklore, which had been released in July. She recorded Evermore mainly with Aaron Dessner at his Long Pond Studio in the Hudson Valley. Evermore expands on Folklore's escapist fantasy songwriting with fictional narratives and delves into the imaginary world Swift had ideated while self-isolating during the COVID-19 pandemic. The songs explore the emotions—including longing, grief, nostalgia, and regret—that stem from unhappy endings of forbidden love, divorce, and infidelity. Evermore features an atmospheric indie folk, folk-pop, chamber rock, alternative rock, and alternative pop soundscape. Its spare arrangements and orchestrations consist of fingerpicked guitars, pianos, strings, subtle synths, and programmed drums. Haim, the National,
