'''''The Tortured Poets Department''''' (sering disebut '''''Tortured Poets''''' atau disingkat '''''TTPD''''') adalah album studio kesebelas oleh penyanyi-penulis lagu Amerika [[Taylor Swift]]. Album ini dirilis pada 19 April 2024, melalui [[Republic Records]], dan ditulis serta diproduksi oleh Taylor Swift, [[Jack Antonoff]] dan [[Aaron Dessner]]. Swift mengumumkan album ini di Penghargaan Grammy Tahunan ke-66 pada 4 Februari 2024, setelah memenangkan penghargaan [[Album Vokal Pop Terbaik (Grammy Award)|Album Vokal Pop Terbaik]] untuk album studio kesepuluhnya, ''[[Midnights]]'' (2022).
 
Taylor Swift menyusun ''The Tortured Poets Department'' tidak lama setelah menyelesaikan ''Midnights'' dan terus dikerjakan selama berlangsungnya [[The Eras Tour]] (2023–2024). Taylor Swift menggambarkan ''The Tortured Poets Department'' sebagai album "penyelamat hidupnya" dan menanggapnya sebagai puncak luapan isi hati yang harus dituliskan. ''The Tortured Poets Department'' adalah album ganda. Bagian kedua dari album ini, yang diberi subjudul '''''The Anthology''''', dirilis tiba-tiba dua jam setelah perilisan album yang pertama. [[Post Malone]] tampil sebagai kolaborator di lagu pembuka "[[Fortnight]]", yang dirilis sebagai singel utama, dan [[Florence and the Machine]] tampil sebagai kolaborator di lagu "[[Florida!!!]]".
Album ini terdiri dari enam belas lagu pada edisi standar yang menampilkan kolaborasi dengan [[Post Malone]] dan [[Florence and the Machine|Florence + the Machine]], dengan rilis format fisik termasuk bonus lagu ketujuh belas berjudul "The Manuscript".
 
''The Tortured Poets Department'' didominasi oleh genre [[synth-pop]] dengan bumbu [[Musik rok|rock]] dan [[Lagu daerah|folk]]. Basis utama dari album [[Tempo (musik)|midtempo]] ini adalah [[Penyintesis|synthesizer]] dan [[mesin drum]], namun instrumen ''live'' seperti piano dan gitar juga digunakan. Album ini mengaji kehidupan publik dan pribadi Taylor Swift dalam paduan ungkapan yang depresif dan humoris. Banyak pengulas musik yang memuji ''The Tortured Poets Department'' atas gaya penulisan lagu-lagunya yang dianggap [[Katarsis|katartik]] dan emosional, namun banyak juga yang mengkritisi kedangkalan tema yang dibahas, pemborosan kata-kata dan kurangnya kejelasan tujuan dibandingkan album-album Taylor Swift sebelumnya. Banyak juga yang menganggap bahwa produksi musik di album ini membosankan.
== Latar belakang dan rilis ==
Swift merilis album studio kesepuluhnya, ''[[Midnights]]'', pada 21 Oktober 2022, meraih kesuksesan komersial dan kritis, menjadi album terbesar tahun ini.<ref>{{Cite news|last=Bugel|first=Safi|date=2022-10-28|title=Taylor Swift: Midnights becomes biggest album of 2022 after one week|url=https://www.theguardian.com/music/2022/oct/28/taylor-swift-midnights-becomes-biggest-album-of-2022-after-one-week|work=The Guardian|issn=0261-3077|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231123050957/https://www.theguardian.com/music/2022/oct/28/taylor-swift-midnights-becomes-biggest-album-of-2022-after-one-week|archive-date=November 23, 2023|access-date=2024-02-05|url-status=live}}</ref> Tahun berikutnya, dia merilis dua album rekaman ulang, ''[[Speak Now (Taylor's Version)]]'' dan ''[[1989 (Taylor's Version)]]'', sebagai bagian dari proyek rekaman ulangnya.

''The Tortured Poets Department'' berhasil memecahkan serangkaian rekor komersial. Di antaranya rekor ''streaming'' tertinggi di [[Spotify]] dalam satu hari yang dipegang oleh album Taylor Swift sebelumnya, ''Midnights'', dan [[Prapesan|pre-order]] terbanyak dalam sejarah di pengecer [[Target Corporation|Target]].
Pada tanggal 4 Februari, pagi hari Penghargaan Grammy, Swift mengeluarkan kisi-kisi perilisan albumnya dengan mengubah gambar profilnya di semua platform media sosial menjadi versi hitam putih dari sampul album ''Midnights'' yang sudah ada''.'' Hal ini menyebabkan [[Swiftie|para penggemarnya]] berspekulasi secara online bahwa dia sedang bersiap untuk merilis ''[[Reputation (Taylor's Version)]],'' sebuah rekaman ulang yang akan datang dari album studio keenamnya, ''[[Reputation (album)|Reputation]]'' (2017).<ref>{{Cite magazine|last=Smyth|access-date=February 4, 2023|magazine=[[Variety (majalah)|Variety]]|url=https://www.vulture.com/2024/02/taylor-swifts-black-and-white-profile-pic.html|title=Taylor Swift's Black and White Profile Pic|archivedate=February 5, 2024|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240205001122/https://www.vulture.com/2024/02/taylor-swifts-black-and-white-profile-pic.html|url-status=live}}</ref> Situs web Swift juga tampaknya mogok, diganti dengan [[Daftar kode status HTTP|kode status HTTP]] 321 yang tidak ada, serta kode kesalahan "hneriergrd", yang oleh penggemar diartikan sebagai ejaan [[anagram]] "[[Ikan haring merah|red herring]]".<ref>{{Cite web|last=West|first=Bryan|date=February 4, 2024|title='Error 321' Taylor Swift website crashes, sending fans on frantic hunt for 'red herring'|url=https://www.usatoday.com/story/entertainment/music/2024/02/04/taylor-swift-website-crash-reputation-easter-eggs/72474905007|website=[[USA Today]]|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240204235000/https://www.usatoday.com/story/entertainment/music/2024/02/04/taylor-swift-website-crash-reputation-easter-eggs/72474905007|archive-date=February 4, 2024|access-date=February 5, 2024|url-status=live}}</ref> Penggemar juga menganalisis [[kode sumber]] situs webnya dan menemukan kata-kata tersembunyi dalam bahasa asing yang, ketika diterjemahkan ke bahasa Inggris, ternyata berasal dari catatan tulisan tangan Swift yang dia ungkapkan saat mengumumkan albumnya.<ref>{{Cite news|last=West|first=Bryan|date=February 4, 2024|title=Taylor Swift announces brand-new album at Grammys: 'Tortured Poets Department'|url=https://www.tennessean.com/story/entertainment/music/2024/02/04/taylor-swift-announces-brand-new-album-tortured-poets-department/72476449007|work=The Tennessean|access-date=February 5, 2024}}</ref>

== Judul dan sampul album ==
Kurangnya tanda kutip pada judul resmi album (dalam artian ''The Tortured Poets'''<nowiki/>'<nowiki/>''' Department'') menjadi bahan perdebatan tentang tata bahasa dalam Bahasa Inggris. Para ahli bahasa menyatakan bahwa Swift menggunakan ''Tortured Poets'' sebagai kata benda atributif, seperti di judul film drama tahun 1989, ''[[Dead Poets Society]]'', dan bukan sebagai kata benda posesif yang memerlukan tanda petik.<ref>Sources on the apostrophe:</ref> Para ''Swiftie'' berteori bahwa ''The Tortured Poets Department'' bertujuan untuk menyindir grup obrolan WhatsApp antara [[Andrew Scott]], [[Paul Mescal]], dan [[Joe Alwyn]] yang bernama "The Tortured Man Club."<ref>{{Cite web|last=Campbell|first=Tina|date=February 5, 2024|title=Taylor Swift fans think new album title is a dig at her ex Joe Alwyn's group chat|url=https://www.standard.co.uk/showbiz/taylor-swift-fans-convinced-new-album-title-the-tortured-poets-department-dig-at-ex-joe-alwyn-group-chat-b1137084.html|website=Evening Standard|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240206090140/https://www.standard.co.uk/showbiz/taylor-swift-fans-convinced-new-album-title-the-tortured-poets-department-dig-at-ex-joe-alwyn-group-chat-b1137084.html|archive-date=February 6, 2024|access-date=April 19, 2024|url-status=live}}</ref>

== Ulasan kritikus ==
Konsensus penilaian ''The Tortured Poets Department'' mengarah ke "biasa saja" hingga "lumayan." Menurut [[Metacritic]], ''The Tortured Poets Department'' dianggap "cukup bagus" dan mendapatkan skor rata-rata 76/100 dari 24 skor kritikus. Sementara itu, bagian kedua dari ''The Tortured Poets Deparment'', ''The Anthology'', mendapatkan skor rata-rata 69/100 dari 6 skor kritikus.
 
Sejumlah kritikus menganggap album ini sebagai bagian penting dalam diskografi Taylor Swift. Ulasan dari Helen Brown dari ''The Independent'', Ellie Roberts dari ''[[The Arts Desk]]'', Dan Cairns dari ''[[The Times]]'', Jeffrey Davies dari ''[[PopMatters]]'', dan Will Harris dari ''Q'' memuji ''The Tortured Poets Department'' sebagai salah satu album Taylor Swift yang paling komplit. Mereka menganggap komposisi musik, penggayaan vokal dan tonalitas lirik di ''The Tortured Poets Departmen''t sebagai sesuatu yang ambisius dan eksperimental. Kritikus Lainnya, termasuk Chris Willman dari ''[[Variety (majalah)|Variety]]'', Ed Power dari ''i'', dan Kitty Empire dari ''[[The Observer]]'', menyebut ''The Tortured Poets Department'' sebagai album klasik Taylor Swift.
 
Di sisi lain, banyak kritikus, termasuk Zoladz, Laura Molloy dari ''[[NME]]'', dan Tom Breihan dari ''Stereogum'', berpendapat bahwa kolaborasi Taylor Swift dan Jack Antonoff di ''The Tortured Poets Department'' tidak inovatif karena banyaknya kemiripan suara dengan kolaborasi-kolaborasi mereka sebelumnya. Amanda Petrusich dari ''[[The New Yorker]]'' menyatakan bahwa lagu yang diproduksi Aaron Dessner "lebih halus, lebih lembut, dan lebih mengejutkan." Horn dan wartawan [[BBC]] Mark Savage merasa melodi ''The Tortured Poets Department'' monoton dan "menidurkan." Menurut Mary Kate Carr dari ''[[The A.V. Club]]'', ''The Tortured Poets Department'' "bagus-bagus saja," namun sayangnya harus muncul pada saat Taylor Swift "tidak punya apa-apa lagi untuk dibuktikan," yang mengakibatkan kemandekan dalam kreativitas. Hal yang sama juga diungkapkan oleh majalah ''[[Paste (majalah)|Paste]]'' dalam sebuah ulasan anonim yang mengatakan bahwa ''The Tortured Poets Department'' terkesan terburu-buru, hampa, dan tidak menarik.{{Music ratings
