A mere matter of hours since it was first announced, the new Taylor Swift album, folklore is out right now.

folklore is a collaboration with Aaron Dessner, he of The National. Dessner co-wrote and produced a stunning number of the tracks on the album, lending his silky and sensitive stylings to the proceedings.

The album is a stark change to Swift’s last album, Lover. Whereas Lover was a collection of in-yer-face pop hooks, the new surprise record takes a quieter and less insistent route to greatness.

The first taste of the album came in the form of the music video for ‘Cardigan’.

folklore is now available through all major streaming services. For physical copies, fans can head exclusively to the Taylor Swift website, here.
