    1. S***2. The City
    3. Chocolate
    4. She’s American
    5. UGH!
    6. Paris
    7. Menswear
    8. Robbers
    9. Settle Down
    10. One of the 3 following songs: Girls, A Change I’d Heart, or Give Yourself a Try)

    Number 5 and 7 is absolutely disgusting but other than that I like

    @Bliss where you rank this in they discog tho

    Cop out answer until I figure out which one I like more but:

    The 1975 > NOACF=ILIWYS > ABIIOR

    I actually mathematically calculated scores for NOACF and ILIWYS to see which album came out on top and they both came out as exactly an 8.8/10

    The 1975= 9.8/10
    ABIIOR= 6.9 mathematically but I’d probably drop it down to more of a 6

    Never heard it tried a couple times and it sounded really bad. I don’t like their rock songs (except love it if we made it, sex, robbers, and the city)

    Don’t let this one review change your opinion on him. He’s still a good dude and this album has gotten a lot of negative reviews.

    Plus I do understand being mad at the instrumentals, multiple album covers, and multiple release date push backs. Those all kind of piss me off too.

    I'm sure my opinion of him will change after a bit, but I just don't see a point in getting literally angry with a band that makes the art they want to make. Trash on them all you want, but anger (acting like they need to make good stuff every time). It's crazy how ungrateful some fans can get.

    Nothing Revealed is pretty cool tho, sounds like it could've been on Iridescence (even tho i hate that album)

  • May 22, 2020

    This album is basically the equivalent of throwing everything at a wall

    He’s a music reviewer. A band should be making good music every time. While I disagree on him with it being bad of course he’s going to want the best from them ever time. If an artist does their job their should be 0 bad songs on an album.

    He trashed the album but sound angry to me other than digging on the music which is what a music reviewer should do if they think an album is bad.

    When did that song you posted come out?

    Because Having No Head is actually a re-work and extension of one of their EP songs from back in the day.

    Either that or HNH is depth extended which Depth came out last year. IDR

    this song came out in 2013, and likely was recorded in 2012

    That's the thing, we've made art a job now. That in itself puts more pressure than anything else out there. When bands start, their first few pieces of material are usually always their best, because they don't have as much pressure and they do it for fun.

    I mean I guess they toured and stuff, but I honestly don't think it should be that serious. With any artist, a music reviewer should not evoke emotion like that in their reviews, it just makes them sound biased no matter their view.

    I mean idk I didn't really like ABIIOR like their other stuff, so I get it I guess, but I wasn't angry at it

    I wouldn’t say he’s biased because he literally gave ILIWYS ALTY in 2016. If anything he’s biased for the band which is why he dogs on the album so much because it wasn’t as good as the band can be (to him.)
