The tracks that seem most personal and confessional don't always fare quite as well, with a turgid piano ballad ('Camouflage') weighing things down and the overdone 'Sober.' Both songs are guilty of a bit too much over-sharing - which would be OK if the melody and music were a little more interesting - but they really aren't. She does a fine job on the tracks that slip outside the bounds of the formula, namely on the snappy, sassy Charli XCX-written 'Same Old Love' or the steamy, tricked-out Latin beats and weird synthesizers in 'Body Heat.' These tracks show at her best, dialing up her personality to match the wit and imagination shown in the arrangements. Gomez sounds most at home on the uptempo dance tracks like 'Kill 'Em with Kindness' or 'Me & the Rhythm,' where the smoothness of her voice fits in with the vacant abandon of the beat. Instead, the album sticks pretty close to a club bangers-and-ballads mix with a couple of R&B-inspired jams thrown in. Taking more control over the album, with more writing credits and production oversight, the sound veers away from the bubblegum nature of her early work or the genre-hopping aspects of other releases. Revival is something of a fresh start for Gomez, both musically and personally. A label change (from Hollywood to Interscope), a very public breakup with longtime on-off boyfriend Justin Bieber, management issues, various rehab rumors, and even a few good things (a hit single, a charting collaboration with Zedd). During the short time since her last album, 2013's Stars Dance, and the release of Revival in 2015, Selena Gomez went through about a decade's worth of stuff.
