I was helping my friend with her dissertation and this was a trip down memory lane for her. 😭 Honestly it's a sound that I've heard before and that I enjoyed listening to! I could feel my friend shaking her head through the screen (but also singing along to a lot of it), it's very funny listening for the first time because I'm picking out all of the great imagery for the first time and my friends just got her head in her arms remembering her Phase. It's very similar if I was listening to Bastard or Goblin by Tyler the Creator.
Anyway, it's a great album. I was expecting it to have more of a "hardcore" sound? Maybe I've just been spoiled by listening to Death Grips for the last 9 years. Like oomf said the band is not entirely emo, it's more rock music which I really enjoy. Good rec @fiore Not sure if it has a slot in my playlist, but definitely worth a listen when I'm in the mood.
Honestly on my first listen through, I didn't enjoy the first half of the album. I think I was still adjusting from the previous album I was listening to in the morning. But after listening to it a few more times I realised that it was fuarrkking peak. I really thought it'd be all just banger whatever lyric song (I think the word I associated most with it was normieslop) but after listening to it. It's such a great album, can't believe I didn't listen to it in 2024. I understand all the hype even if I think it wasn't the best thing ever. The album cover is great too. If you take everything into consideration about the album, the cover, the music, the production.
I'm sorry for calling you normieslop brat.... you're normiegem
Hooooooly fuck I love it so much it's such a great album back to front, there wasn't really a song that I hated. It felt like the first time I had ever listened to Wallsocket by underscores. Just hit after hit, and it didn't really take me some time to adjust to the sound like it usually does. Out of the box it was GREAT. I think it might actually be my favourite album that I've listened to this year assuming nothing awesome comes out.
I'm gonna start listening to One album every single day. I wanted to do this like a "Music May" or something but that's stupid and I'll forget so, in this thread I'm gonna be writing which album I listen to for the day and then edit a little review about it on the post. :P
