“Blackout” is the fifth studio album by Britney Spears which will be released on October 30, 2007.Here are some reviews of the LP.
“Blackout,” her first studio album in four years, is not only a very good album, it’s her best work ever — a triumph, with not a bad song to be found on the 12 tracks.” - Associated Press
“Blackout is terrible. Heck, even the title seems like a joke, considering the substance abuse allegations, even if her team tries to explain it away as a reference to “blocking out negativity and embracing life fully.” - Newsday
“Spears needs to keep it grimy, because the alternative is a numbing blandness that makes you think too long about head-scratcher lines such as Heaven on Earth’s “I fall off the edge of my mind.”" - USA Today
“Poetry it’s not. Still, there is something delightfully escapist about Blackout, a perfectly serviceable dance album abundant in the kind of bouncy electro elements that buttressed her hottest hits (”I’m a Slave 4 U,” ”Toxic”). Say what you will about Spears’ personal life, but there’s no denying that the girl knows how to have a good time.” - EW
