Critic Reviews
Show All-
SLANT
finds Lambert setting the benchmark for the country genre even as she begins to consider the possibilities beyond its borders.
-
Washington Post
"Revolution" draws upon everything from Skynyrd to Haggard to Underwood.
-
Entertainment
Revolution is a portrait of an artist in full possession of her powers, and the best mainstream-country album so far this year.
-
ALL MUSIC
Revolution is somewhat weighed down by the perception that Lambert is nothing but a rocking rebel when she is, as the sum total of this strong but overly long album ultimately proves, so much more.
-
popMATTERS
I hope she has a lot more of these songs left in her.
-
New York Times
She still needs every ounce of her pluck on an album with a gloss-to-grit ratio more or less congruent with mainstream country norms.
-
Boston Globe
Revolution is the sound of Miranda Lambert coming into her own.
-
SPIN
Lambert is still at her bubbliest playing a guntoting, wisecracking, catfighting gal next door who cusses like a sailor, or at least brags that she does, plotting revenge on lying boyfriends and town hypocrites.
-
paste
She’s a little wounded, a little scared, a little less of a caricature and a little more human.
-
RollingStone
Miranda Lambert remains country's most refreshing act.
-
american noise
Revolution finally brings all of these conflicting issues into balance, resulting in Lambert’s most even and satisfying disc to date.
-
SOUNDS LIKE NASHVILLE
I promise you, it's worth every penny.
-
plugged in
It’s about drinkin’ and cheatin’ and church—things that people really do.
-
hybrid music reviews
she does not shy away from her softer side.
-
NO DEPERSSION
Here’s a swaller and a holler to Lambert and hoping she continues to surprise her fans shame Nashville with more gems like Revolution.
-
SCENE
Lambert is at the top of her game here.
-
american songwriter
There is no safety net, only full-tilt emotions.
-
COUNTRY UNIVERSE
On her third album, Revolution, it is entirely possible that Lambert has finally found a way to strike the tenuous balance of pleasing both critics and the general country music listening public.
