1989 (Taylor Swift Album)
''1989'' is the fifth studio album by American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift. It was released on October 27, 2014, by Big Machine Records. After music critics questioned her status as a country musician following her pop and electronic-influenced fourth studio album ''Red'' (2012), Swift was inspired by 1980s synth-pop to recalibrate her artistry from country to pop music. On ''1989'', titled after her birth year to signify her symbolic artistic rebirth, Swift enlisted Max Martin as co-executive producer. The album's synth-pop sound is characterized by heavy synthesizers, programmed drums, and processed backing vocals.
