Taylor Swift's new album "The Tortured Poets Department" will arrive on Friday, April 19.
AdvertisementIf you spend enough time in Taylor Swift-devoted territories of social media, as I have, you'll find posts that proclaim "The Tortured Poets Department" is her best album yet.
Die-hard fans say it's a masterpiece, destined to win Swift her fifth Grammy Award for album of the year.
But the fact that no fan has heard even one second of "Poets" — the album isn't out until Friday — seems to be a moot point.
The aforementioned fans who insist "Poets" will dominate charts and break records have no idea what the album sounds like.
