Katy Perry’s new album is remarkably honest but falls flat – Sydney Morning Herald
Insincerity is a problem that’s plagued Perry throughout her career, although this time she is striving for more. She achieves it, but only with a few songs.

Perry is surprisingly indulgent with the details of her highly publicised, yet extremely private relationship, as she meditates on the warm glow of true love (Only Love). But saccharine moments like Never Really Over and Tucked ring hollow. In July on Instagram Perry promised an album about her “journey towards the light”. These are lofty ambitions for a star who cut her teeth on absurdist pop jaunts, and sadly the result is milquetoast, at best. KISH LAL
