Great album! I realllyy loved the production and being able to pick out all the little things that I've heard before (I'm afraid to call them "influences" because I'm unsure if that's what's going on) but it's like I can compare almost every song to something I've heard before, and there's a lot of fun in doing that :P

It's not anything super special or unique but it's just unique enough and I guess "sensible" enough for me to actually enjoy. I'd like it to be a bit more on the experiment side of things (I think Exmilitary by Death Grips as a comparison is apt) but that's just my personal taste.

Thanks for the rec oomf <3

Really enjoyed this album! I think it starts off a bit weak and I can't get over 3rd track sounding kinda like KSI 😭😭 😭 and I wish I could speak more on the genre but I'm soo inexperienced when it comes to Indie Rock but I really liked the slow passages in between of the higher energy stuff, I'm not sure why but it sounds very.. Classic Rock? I really don't know but it sounds like an older style of rock which surprised me because it was released in 2018, the album cover especially is giving more older? Idk. But this is great album! Has a place in my playlist :P

So I understand now why when I told one of my friends I was listening to Olivia Rodrigo that she told me to listen to SOUR because she claimed that that's the best album. And I understand now listening to having listened to it, what she meant by that. It's quite different though.

The theme is the same, dealing with an ex, but the vibe is completely different from both albums. In Guts she was not afraid to say what she was actually thinking, and in SOUR it's all very somber, which makes a great album, but that's the part that I enjoyed about Guts the most, is that unashamed anger and saying the things that might seem obsessive, but if you've sort of gone through this, you know how it feels when stuff like that happens.

My favorite song is actually deja vu because she does this very interesting thing at the beginning of it where she sort of describes this scene of her and her ex, with the ice cream, and the jackets, and I thought that it's going to be a song reminiscing about how you know things were better when she was with him.
But then she goes off and start talking about how that person would do the same thing with his new girlfriend and it's very interesting how it takes your expectations to another area that I personally wasn't expecting.

So my friend recommended this for me, and I think that it's an okay album, but I realize I don't really like funk that much, I don't know. It sounds very, the way I described it was it sounds like music that a happy person always has playing in their head. Not necessarily that that's a bad thing, It's just not for me.

I do enjoy some of the music and what it does with the production and stuff but again I don't really have any point of comparison because I've not heard anything similar and so I don't really know if it's anything different than what is typically done within the genre or the artist.

The phrase I would use to describe it is "happy-go-lucky" from my untrained ears where I've historically listened to a lot of hip hop and stuff. It's a very different vibe than I'm used to and that's what's tripping me up a bit haha. It's pretty nice to throw on though. ❤️ Thanks for the rec oomf :P

Let me just start off by saying that women on TikTok have it figured out. They just have it figured out for everything about music. I really, really enjoyed listening to it like a lot.

But one thing that this album made me realize is that the sort of past me really enjoys stuff about like large concepts and like things I was sort of outside of my knowledge or perspective and now I'm definitely realizing that I like stuff that reflects my perspective and experiences now, and growing a bit older means that I finally Have those experiences.

Don't get me wrong, the albums with cliches and sort of the classic like popular radio music type stuff like for example in vampire, it's all done with not just sadness but there's a lot of confidence and I don't want to say arrogance, but that it's kind of that, it sort of gives you a window into someone's thoughts and life that sort of sanitized normal music would be too ashamed to even put out there and I really really appreciate that about it.

My favourite song "bad idea right?" the self awareness, the "fuck it it's fine"-ness of it. It's incredibly good, and catchy! Thanks for the rec oomf!!!!! Some of these songs are defo going in a playlist 😭
