Gotta be honest. This album scared me Ive never had an album hit as hard, mentally This album somehow managed to stab me in the heart in a way that no other album has done. Cancer and Noise are beautiful songs. I'm happy I was alive to witness these bands. But damn man, this album hits way too deep
I went to one of their shows and had a riser seat. My mom passed away when I was young, along with my grandpa, grandma, and four of my friends who committed suicide. Growing up, many bands were my comfort, especially Prada. I wasn't the cringe "they saved my life" person, but music was a beautiful thing I could distract myself with in regard to emotions. It was the first show I had a few drinks at because I'm always in the pit. When I saw Cancer live, and sung to it during, my buried emotions resurfaced. I went into the venue bathroom and cried for the first time in my life, since my mother's passing. Color Decay is a gorgeous album that is brutally hard to listen too.
On first listen I thought yeh it’s dark, uplifting where it’s needed but overall pretty dark. Read the lyrics and fuck me is it dark. But exactly what’s needed
This is the definition of 'perfecting' a sound. Lots of hard work and dedication to not selling out and going somewhere they don't belong. This is genuinely a masterpiece and perfectly exemplifies what fans mean when they want something 'fresh and new' but not different.
yeah, but there are still fans that say their new stuff is garbage, i was in a metal group and most of the people were dissing it, and it wasn't some group about only heavy music either.
Honestly, the first time I heard 'Cancer' I broke down. The word play and idea of dealing with so much shit, that 'Cancer' would be an easier thing to deliver to someone. Like you don't want to explain your problems, the things you have on your plate, your mental health, the dramas and struggles of your life that the person asking is unaware of, that simply having 'cancer' would be easier to talk about because most people know on surface level is a terrible thing, they don't need the full story or nuances of how it affects you, cancer is trying to kill you, and even that is easier to share than what you have going on. That to me, is one of the most creative, yet depressing ways of describing a sad, depressed, and chaotic life. And on the same level, it could even be about actual cancer, and hoping it's not something else going wrong on top of it. It's such a heartbreakingly poetic duality. Might be my album of the year.
Y'know The lead singer said the song has another message than what you said, but it kind of ruined how I looked at the song, which is what you typed So I'll just let you believe that, because imo, your idea is much better than what the actual reason is
@@minecraftsteve2504 what I’ve read from them about the lyrics is actually pretty spot on to what OP said. Mind sharing where you saw the other interview or questions?
@@JakeLudenit’s based around the struggle of their/my generation, suicide and overdose. It’s about when you get the call that another friend died you hope that it’s cancer, something of “fate” and unavoidable, not that another friend chose to end their life through suicide or drugs. For me it’s sadly too relatable. “I hope that it’s cancer, so what does that say about myself.”
Weird I love both the act and this album but the act to me was definitely better but this is a close second place for me But this album is also a masterpiece just to make that clear haha
The Z2 ep really showed them retouch their harder stuff then come out this out, they really reached their stride this album is perfect imo their best album to date
@@CFLaughs this album and Roots Above are probably the best two full albums they've made. Capturing lightning in a bottle twice by any metalcore band is almost something that never happens. Both very different to each other as well
@@dustygearhead Shut the fuck up and let people enjoy music. This album is a masterpiece, so is Roots. If you don't like it, fine, but fuck off with trying to force your opinion on others
@Madden 07 Soundtrack Fan Account [Norma Jean AOTY] I'd say it was up there with those albums. DGD was forgettable for me. Ultimately just more formulaic stuff from them.
@Madden 07 Soundtrack Fan Account [Norma Jean AOTY] That's fair! It's still got some catchy tracks on it, but overall to me just felt uninspired is all.
@Madden 07 Soundtrack Fan Account [Norma Jean AOTY] did you hear the new falset album? if you like windwaker youd like them they have similar vibes minus the rap
YESS. It definitely does have a nostalgic feel to it that I can't really place. I called it "new nostalgia" when a bunch of friends and I were listening to it yesterday. Made me feel like I was back in my early 20s on the way to Warped Tour to go see this shit live. Friggin amazing.
@Madden 07 Soundtrack Fan Account [Norma Jean AOTY] I love all bands you mentioned except Norma Jean, never got into them. But all their new albums did nothing for me, except a few songs on DGDs new.. For me, only Banks Arcade, Static Dress ❤️, void of vision, MIW, Allt and this album were enjoyable.. respect your opinion though 🙂
This is my absolute favorite album from Prada. The funny thing is ‘The Act’ was my favorite when it came out, but they took the sound from that album and PERFECTED it here while also completely revising it to its own unique sound. I can’t get over how great Prada has become, almost NO bands from their generation have accomplished this. This is evolution at its fucking finest.
I wish I would have followed this band all these years. It would help me appreciate all the progression they seem to have with this newest album. One of these days I intend to listen to all their albums!
I’m gonna be honest, a few of these songs had me in tears. This album made me **FEEL** in a way that I really haven’t in while listening to new releases this year. Absolutely AotY for me.
I really haven’t FELT much with recent releases this year. The only album that made me feel in the last 9 months was Red Hot Chili Peppers newest album. But metalcore had been failing me this year. Until this record. This is AOTY for sure right now.
Heroine from Thornhill got me in a vibey mood and is probably in second place for AOTY so far for me, but this album literally had me in tears. Listening to trapped, twenty five, sacrifice and especially cancer are literally just sucker punches in the feels for me it’s insane. It’s been a while since a release has just left a hole in me, but not because it’s bad, but because of how raw and honest it is. I just can’t even put into words what this album means to me so I’ll stop rambling but man, TDWP just broke my heart and mended it at the same time. That’s the best way I can put it.
Watching your video while still coping with what my ears just witnessed. What a powerful release from TDWP, I really like their current direction and you can tell they have honed their style. Also, I have to join the crying party.
Album of the year for me. I only wish they had this much feeling in their music before. I just never found them believable like this. Like they never had said anything on a song that they HAD to say. Having listened to them since high school, this sounds like the first thing they ever really meant this much, and it made me cry several times. This is their best record ever imo.
This album made me feel things I haven’t felt in a LONG time. It reminds me of how I felt when I listened to “The Place I Feel Safest” by Currents. Very huge production, stellar instrumentation, and very deep/personal lyrics that bring huge emotional responses. It’s the only Prada album I’ve loved every single track. Breathtaking.
Im going to paste a comment I left on another reactors video to TDWP's "Salt" video below (from 3 months ago). This full album release has only confirmed my feelings. TDWP, IMO, has aged like fine wine. My comment is below: "I was in middle school during the mid-2000s, and I never really listened to heavier music during that time (Trivium is probably the limit at the time). But TDWP was always a band I saw ppl wearing T-shirts of, and I dabbled eventually. While I've never listened to many bands that were doing that type of sound at the time "With roots above and branches below" was a great album (even though I was late to the party). But as years pass I've found that TDWP has really nailed their sound. Even a song like this sounds fantastic. They just really seem in touch with who they are as a band. Parkway Drive just put out a song that is so generic and godawful (IMO). But even though this is quite different from TDWP's catalog it still feels like them. If that makes any sense. It's not a song that makes you say "Oh no" for a band's direction. Because once again, I fully believe this band knows their roots and can comfortably experiment with their sound. I really love this song."
Favorite Metal Band in 2022…im in a very complicated moment of my life and Trapped hit every bit of my heart…enjoyed Metal after very long time, i had fun listening to the album…almost like pain was not there…and had lots of it both physically and mentally this past month…hope this is just one more little step out of this bad dark moment…everybody goes through this shit…and wish everybody going through the dark phase luck…i know you are tired…im tired myself and wish i didnt wake up just to have some actual rest…but you don’t wanna go without living a life you would brag about on the other side, or mom/dad or whoever loves you the most would be devastated, what about your friends? The real ones that visit you, text you and check on you often…let’s do our best to survive and hope this bad moment ends soon…and if your body can’t really do it…it’s ok, take your rest…we’ll remember you for good, the end is not defeat
A wonderful album I can't stop listening to it for the third week. In my opinion, I hear in it a mixture of emo 90s-00s and something from post-punk post-hardcore (for example, the song "Trapped") with the current modern metalcore of the 20s. And the song "twenty-five" reminded me of the sound of the experimental band "my own private Alaska" which used only drums, piano and scream vocal in his art
Listening to the gauntlet of solitude (song off of 2005 demo) today Then listening to the new album on repeat constantly. Scrolling through the comments on this channel along the lines “I wish I listened to this band throughout the years to recognize the progress they’ve made” You want to know the progression listen to the 05’ demo and all your questions will be answered LMAO🤘🤘 stay safe and rock on everyone have a great day and better tomorrow!!!
Haven’t felt this way about an album since the first time I heard the sinner , creatures, & to plant a seed . The emotion is unmatched and brings you back to your teenage years 😭. I’m on the bus with the cryers … cried so many times listening to this record 🤘🏼🤘🏼. AOTY no contest
I have listened to Prada since 2011 or so. While I do have a nostalgic soft spot in my heart for things like Zombie and Dead Throne, this album absolutely blew me away. The songs just sound SO good together. I love seeing them grow and change. The emotion definitely comes across on this album. I wouldn’t be surprised if this ends up being one of my favorite albums of the year :)
Dead Throne and The Act are my favorites ever by them. Kills me when people say shit like “not heavy like old Prada” because goddamn this band is so old and a leader in this genre. Bands are allowed to evolve and grow; TDWP went from ridiculously heavy songs with equally ridiculous names to an album that absolutely rips your heart out with its lyrics. Goddamn I could never get tired of this group.
I don't care how many times I've watched this exact reaction. I still appreciate I get to enjoy this album with someone who reacts in such positive way to this album. Thank you Bogdan
Songs like "Twenty - Five" are what'll bring me to tears, and make me contemplate life. Edit: Hallucinate is a top 5 song of 2022 for me. This whole album is top 5 of 2022 for me, as well. Edit #2: "Cancer" got me at the end. Hit way too close to home ❤️
i have never cried actually to an album before and i cried twice in this album. thank you so much for showing me this band bogdan. you quite literally have changed my perspective on music.
I have never been a fan of Devil Wears Prada. The whole screamy talky singing they normally do just doesn't do it for me. BUT THIS ALBUM IS ABSOLUTELY FRICKIN' AMAZING! Like seriously, I just heard sacrifice because it was suggested by Spotify and I was like who the heck is this, this is awesome? And to my surprise it was TDWP. I just think the melodies in this album are just hauntingly beautiful and that is not to mention the weird timing and syncopation of the riffs. So good.
bro, fr. It’s hard to find metalcore album in the last 3 years with 0 skips. But Bad Omens, Spiritbox and TDWP did it, and although they’re not as heavy as traditional metalcore I still think they are top 5 best metalcore bands rn.
In full honesty, I wasn’t captured by the singles last year and I didn’t really understand all the hype. But, I decided to give the full album a few thorough listens back in January and it just suddenly clicked with me. It’s been my most listened to album in 2023 so far, and I’m so glad I gave it a chance because it is so so good!
The first listen I was on a bus, when Trapped came on I had to hold back tears This album is beautiful and is a perfect mix of all the Prada sounds over the years. It’s such a mature and refined sound! Up there with Elegy for AOTY for me
How these guys have gone from Born To Lose, Sailor’s Prayer, Dead Throne, and other brutal songs to these emotional bangers is musical progression at its finest
AOTY. I never listened to Prada except Chemical, but started to pick them up due to Spotify's Release Radar. What can I say, this album is beautiful. AOTY candidate for sure. It has BMTH 2010 - 2013 vibe, a bit of latest Architects influence and unique Prada's pattern. Love it!
I would've already loved this record if it dropped at any other point of the year, but having this drop in the middle of a really rough point in the year made it hit ten times more, and was the music therapy I desperately needed. Easily AOTY. Twenty-Five is the best song on the record, and I tear up each time I hear it.
For some reason this album reminds me of when Silverstein released "Retrograde". I think it's because after being a band for so many years and so many releases, they came out and released arguably one of their best albums. Still early days for this album but I absolutely love it!!!!
I felt like Color Decay is like a part two hybrid of The Act. My personal opinion. Exhibtion being this album's version of Lines In Your Hands Broken being this album's version of Chemical. Trapped being this album's version of Please Say No Hallucinate being this album's version of Spiderhead Cancer being this album's version of As Kids
Wow, I couldn't put my finger on it, but this is spot on. Sum 41 is one of my all time favorites, and this album so far feels like I've known it for years.
This is definitely my album of the year "thus far". I've got friends who've heard some upcoming releases telling me to "get ready", but it's gonna take something seriously magical to top this record. I personally identified with "Twenty-Five" so much that I was straight up ugly crying for like an hour after. What a masterpiece. Not a single song on here was a miss.
I just got this album a couple days ago. I skipped past a few songs they released on my commute to work and "Twenty-Five" started playing... My friend died from an overdose the day before I got this album. It was so surreal.
Just got into prada like a month and a half ago, and theyre already one of my favorite metalcore bands. I just love that they mix metal and pop/emo. The breakdown in exhibition really gives me bad omens vibes, specifically artificial suicide. Hallucinate and Sacrifice are my faves from the album.
13:53 excuse me but have you forgotten about the hard hitting line that winston gave us "If you don't stay sharp🔪, then you just get cut ✂️ Fat little 🐷iggy with his head on the 🅱️lock" 🔥🔥🔥 what a banger line
After I heard this album for the first time, I knew that once Hard Core reacted to the full album he would add 'crying' into the title. Color Decay just has that emotion.
For me this year has been very lacklustre for albums and metal in general really, so Colour Decay is something I’ve been anticipating even more than I usually would, and wow, blown away completely, instantly one of the best albums of my entire metal experience, thank you TDWP, this is in my top 5 of all time and Bogdan perfectly summarised my entire thought process, just wow
Same here, I used to like a couple of their songs but didn't vibe fully with their style. Then the singles from this all just hit perfectly and I was sold!
I felt the same way with a lot of their older music. Transit Blues changed that. The Space EP, Zombie (I and II), The Act, and now this. Such incredible albums.
So i heard some of them and i thought they were okay. but not something i would listen to so i didn't now a few days ago i saw Broken and i was like 'damn, that sounds good.' then is saw there was Hallucinate and i was sold to listen the whole album and damn its a masterpiece.
I followed your whole journey through the singles and was so excited what you thought of it! And I’m feeling the same way! This record is so unique and beautiful I can’t help but feel this is AOTY! Love your content bro keep it up ☺️
Gotta be honest.
This album scared me
Ive never had an album hit as hard, mentally
This album somehow managed to stab me in the heart in a way that no other album has done.
Cancer and Noise are beautiful songs. I'm happy I was alive to witness these bands.
But damn man, this album hits way too deep
same Minecraft Steve, same.
I went to one of their shows and had a riser seat. My mom passed away when I was young, along with my grandpa, grandma, and four of my friends who committed suicide. Growing up, many bands were my comfort, especially Prada. I wasn't the cringe "they saved my life" person, but music was a beautiful thing I could distract myself with in regard to emotions.
It was the first show I had a few drinks at because I'm always in the pit. When I saw Cancer live, and sung to it during, my buried emotions resurfaced. I went into the venue bathroom and cried for the first time in my life, since my mother's passing. Color Decay is a gorgeous album that is brutally hard to listen too.
@Minecraft Steve haha it hits not just deep, it hits hard and deep!
On first listen I thought yeh it’s dark, uplifting where it’s needed but overall pretty dark. Read the lyrics and fuck me is it dark. But exactly what’s needed
I’m happy you’re alive to witness good music too brother!

ive never really looked in to the devil wears prada, listened to some random songs of them, but this album is so good! im gonna look into them more
“Im musically erect” is the best way to describe the whole album

The real ones that visit you, text you and check on you often…let’s do our best to survive and hope this bad moment ends soon…and if your body can’t really do it…it’s ok, take your rest…we’ll remember you for good, the end is not defeat
Lost my brother just under two weeks ago. He took his own life on Mother’s Day. This album…I can’t begin to explain its importance to me.
twenty five man... i wasnt expecting to cry today
Twenty-Five fuckin ruined me for a good hour or so.
This is easily top 3 albums this year. Absolutely incredible, amazing reaction man
This is tdwp’s final form and we were NOT ready

Songs like "Twenty - Five" are what'll bring me to tears, and make me contemplate life.

Edit #2: "Cancer" got me at the end. Hit way too close to home ❤️

i have never cried actually to an album before and i cried twice in this album. thank you so much for showing me this band bogdan. you quite literally have changed my perspective on music.
Twenty-Five is the spiritual sequel to To The Key of Evergreen
Lyric wise or sound wise?
@@Meh-im1qs I think both really
What a sad sequel
just gave full album a spin....what a masterpiece. wow!
I have never been a fan of Devil Wears Prada. The whole screamy talky singing they normally do just doesn't do it for me. BUT THIS ALBUM IS ABSOLUTELY FRICKIN' AMAZING! Like seriously, I just heard sacrifice because it was suggested by Spotify and I was like who the heck is this, this is awesome? And to my surprise it was TDWP. I just think the melodies in this album are just hauntingly beautiful and that is not to mention the weird timing and syncopation of the riffs. So good.
this is honestly one of the best albums ive ever heard in my life and that is saying alot
Such an amazing release! The boys smashed it. Glad it didn’t disappoint
this album has 0 skips
bro, fr. It’s hard to find metalcore album in the last 3 years with 0 skips. But Bad Omens, Spiritbox and TDWP did it, and although they’re not as heavy as traditional metalcore I still think they are top 5 best metalcore bands rn.
@@shopekuax2067 invent animate and currents also :D but not traditional metalcore of course:D
This album spoke to me more than almost any other album I've ever listened to.
this album is so indescribably good. it's absolutely incredible, #1 album of all time.
This album is a masterpiece from every point of view.
Best album of the year. Masterpiece. The end.
Best Sad Album Nominee Category.
Just saw them live a couple weeks back and the singles from Color Decay sound so good! I can't wait to listen to all of the album live!
In full honesty, I wasn’t captured by the singles last year and I didn’t really understand all the hype.
But, I decided to give the full album a few thorough listens back in January and it just suddenly clicked with me. It’s been my most listened to album in 2023 so far, and I’m so glad I gave it a chance because it is so so good!
Definitely a contender for album of the year. What a damn album.
I want TdwP, Veil of Maya and Underoath to go on tour!!
In my opinion this is their best full-length album since With Roots Above..
The first listen I was on a bus, when Trapped came on I had to hold back tears
This album is beautiful and is a perfect mix of all the Prada sounds over the years. It’s such a mature and refined sound! Up there with Elegy for AOTY for me
8:52 THAT BREAKDOWN🔥🔥🔥
How these guys have gone from Born To Lose, Sailor’s Prayer, Dead Throne, and other brutal songs to these emotional bangers is musical progression at its finest
This is one of the best albums of the last 5 years. Incredible.
AOTY. I never listened to Prada except Chemical, but started to pick them up due to Spotify's Release Radar. What can I say, this album is beautiful. AOTY candidate for sure. It has BMTH 2010 - 2013 vibe, a bit of latest Architects influence and unique Prada's pattern. Love it!
I would've already loved this record if it dropped at any other point of the year, but having this drop in the middle of a really rough point in the year made it hit ten times more, and was the music therapy I desperately needed. Easily AOTY. Twenty-Five is the best song on the record, and I tear up each time I hear it.
For some reason this album reminds me of when Silverstein released "Retrograde". I think it's because after being a band for so many years and so many releases, they came out and released arguably one of their best albums. Still early days for this album but I absolutely love it!!!!
this is straight up my aoty, what a fucking good album
what a banger indeed
This album hit me hard. This is their best work. Been going through some stuff this year… this album gives me chills and tears. Unbelievable.
I felt like Color Decay is like a part two hybrid of The Act. My personal opinion.
Exhibtion being this album's version of Lines In Your Hands
Broken being this album's version of Chemical.
Trapped being this album's version of Please Say No
Hallucinate being this album's version of Spiderhead
Cancer being this album's version of As Kids
I'm not that big of a TDWP fan, but i cannot deny how this album had me headbanging, vibing and bawling my eyes out when I listened to it.
Definitely their best work in a long time. Am I the only one that gets Sum 41 vibes from a lot of the songs?
Pieces - Sum 41 for broken, definitely
Nope . I had that feeling with broken
Wow, I couldn't put my finger on it, but this is spot on. Sum 41 is one of my all time favorites, and this album so far feels like I've known it for years.
This is definitely my album of the year "thus far". I've got friends who've heard some upcoming releases telling me to "get ready", but it's gonna take something seriously magical to top this record. I personally identified with "Twenty-Five" so much that I was straight up ugly crying for like an hour after. What a masterpiece. Not a single song on here was a miss.
This is their best fucking release in a long time. I am absolutely in love with this album
Some good cleansing after Parkway Drive
ikr?
This is so much better than Parkway Drive. So glad I could bleach my ears with this album.
This album was so fucking good. Honestly blown away. I can't wait to see them in April with August Burns Red
I need more albums and songs similar to this album 😩
I cried with this album all night . It was soooo gorgeous!!! This is why I love Prada . Good ass poetry !!! 😊
This band can do no wrong
@Madden 07 Soundtrack Fan Account [Norma Jean AOTY] Plagues is great though?
@Madden 07 Soundtrack Fan Account [Norma Jean AOTY] yeah, they wanted to agree with OP
@Madden 07 Soundtrack Fan Account [Norma Jean AOTY] louder than thunder is amazing
@Madden 07 Soundtrack Fan Account [Norma Jean AOTY] I love louder than thunder. Leave that out
Album of the decade
I miss the heavy low screams mike does. There’s very little of it but I love the sound. 8/10 absolutely love the album.
I just got this album a couple days ago. I skipped past a few songs they released on my commute to work and "Twenty-Five" started playing...
My friend died from an overdose the day before I got this album. It was so surreal.
Is vibe/deep metalcore becoming a thing? Spiritbox, Bad Omens, TDWP dropping 10s left right and center.
Still in 2023, this is one of my top 5 albums of all time
Just got into prada like a month and a half ago, and theyre already one of my favorite metalcore bands. I just love that they mix metal and pop/emo. The breakdown in exhibition really gives me bad omens vibes, specifically artificial suicide. Hallucinate and Sacrifice are my faves from the album.
Luckily for you, they have a wealth of bangers throughout their discography.
@@justinmadison513 yep ive listened to the act, both zombie ep's and dead throne. ZII is prolly my favorite.
@@Odd1006 listen to their 3rd album "With Roots Above and Branches Below", it's a classic on the metalcore scene.
Ah back when i was a baby metal head lol
13:53 excuse me but have you forgotten about the hard hitting line that winston gave us
"If you don't stay sharp🔪, then you just get cut ✂️
Fat little 🐷iggy with his head on the 🅱️lock"
🔥🔥🔥 what a banger line
[insert right here fEaR fIrE aNd fAtE]
Yes, but you're forgetting the much better, hard thought line "if you don't kill me, then fucker, you better run"
Lmao
I took a walk last night through the valley of death too lol
After I heard this album for the first time, I knew that once Hard Core reacted to the full album he would add 'crying' into the title. Color Decay just has that emotion.
Your final statement about Prada and Parkway? Couldn’t have said it any better
Best album Ive heard in years.!...name another better complete one than this
Maybe not better, but I'm really jamming with True Power by I Prevail. Just another excellently produced, very complete album.
Maybe....Infant annihilator - The battle of Yaldabaoth.... It's was very emotional for me 🥲
@@Pigkore yes, childchewer brought me to tears. Very emotional.
this album has made me cry so many times
For me this year has been very lacklustre for albums and metal in general really, so Colour Decay is something I’ve been anticipating even more than I usually would, and wow, blown away completely, instantly one of the best albums of my entire metal experience, thank you TDWP, this is in my top 5 of all time and Bogdan perfectly summarised my entire thought process, just wow
Weve been so spoiled the past couple years with music releases
@@forevermarked5826 music is subjective after all, and no doubt we’re gonna have vastly differing bands and artists we regularly listen to
Gotta check out that new The Callous Daoboys album. Definitely gonna be somewhere in my top 5 for this year
Right in AOTY contest! just amazing
hell yeah for me as well!
@@bogdanhxc there is always a place in honorable mentions
@@vsevolotti Nah just straight up on the list
cancer had my ass sobbing
twenty five hit so hard for me. rerun of my life.
It's an amazing album!!!
Unreal album it's genuinely so good
Everything is fantastic about this record. Especially that second half, chills the whole time
This album left me speechless.
Album of the year at the moment for me right now
I tried to get into TDWP a lot of times, there wasn't a single song that i liked tho. This album is different, I love it so much.
Same here, I used to like a couple of their songs but didn't vibe fully with their style. Then the singles from this all just hit perfectly and I was sold!
I felt the same way with a lot of their older music. Transit Blues changed that. The Space EP, Zombie (I and II), The Act, and now this. Such incredible albums.
Front to back, every track is just outstanding. Might be my favorite prada album. And i love all of them
So i heard some of them and i thought they were okay. but not something i would listen to so i didn't now a few days ago i saw Broken and i was like 'damn, that sounds good.' then is saw there was Hallucinate and i was sold to listen the whole album and damn its a masterpiece.
I saved the singles so I could do it all. Great time
That's some big-time restraint.
Wish I would’ve done the same lol
The production is insane it sounds amazing I love that song Fire it's so good.
I followed your whole journey through the singles and was so excited what you thought of it! And I’m feeling the same way! This record is so unique and beautiful I can’t help but feel this is AOTY! Love your content bro keep it up ☺️
