NEW YORK: Could there be a Taylor Swift new album rollout without a few additional surprises?

No.

On Friday, the pop star released her 11th album, "The Tortured Poets Department,” an amalgamation of her previous work and reflecting the artist who - at the peak of her powers - has spent the last few years re-recording her life’s work and touring its material, filtered through synth-pop anthems, breakup ballads, provocative and matured considerations.

But that was midnight. At 2 a.m. Eastern, she released "The Tortured Poets Department: The Anthology,” featuring 15 additional songs.

"I’d written so much tortured poetry in the past 2 years and wanted to share it all with you, so here’s the second installment,” Swift wrote in an Instagram caption. "And now the story isn’t mine anymore… it’s all yours.”
