    this album is peak music. their debut mercurial world was already phenomenal but magdalena bay even took it to a different level. this was more experimental compared to their debut, and is leaning more to their roots which is prog music.

    after checking out their previous works, highly recommended checking out their streams that they post on youtube. theyve gone into their previous album + mini mixes n dissected them for the fans to see their process and also answer any questions they may have. im sure in time, theyll do the same for this album as well. they mentioned in their mercurial world stream that they needed time to emotionally distance themselves from the music before showing how the sausage is made. its truly so rewarding to be a magbae, they feed us so well!
    also, in their mercurial world breakdown, theres a couple of easter eggs that hint to this album lol. they are so rad.

    I literally just search for new reactions to this album everyday and somehow I missed this one for a month. Hyped to check this out

    Your reaction was basically my reaction, but I was listening on my walk to work for my freak out. And I started walking in circles to delay my arrival because I could not stop listening till the end. The last time I did that was with Janelle Monae’s The Chase Suite, and that was like 15 years ago listening to a CD Walkman…
