I dunno, the sound of the album is extremely nostalgic, he's just doing 80s stuff the whole time, he's doing it well, but there's basically nothing futuristic here
what i mean is that the audience has expectations on artists. when an artist changes up their style, a majority of the audience will not fw it because they relate too much to their old material. i cant imagine being a David Bowie fan back in the day. mf went from glam rock to KRAUTROCK in a span of 3-4 years lmao im sure he alienated a lot of fans
listening to this album really made me realize how mad underrated take my breath is, i find it more enjoyable than blinding lights tbh
Lowkey that Jimmy Carrey finale skit had so much energy building up.... a finale short track after that would have been perfect.....
100%
Im kinda hurt he topped After Hours so easily for me because that was my favorite project of his. What if he never tops this
Thank you for saying this. It’s been 10 f***ing years and we’re still having the same conversations. Thank God he scrapped a dark album in favour of this because it’s an excellent project that shows his talent so well.

Its ten times the track blinding lights is
What did he do on the stream? I was listening to gunna album. Might try to find a replay tomorrow
There's a replay in OP, it's just a listening party
im convinced if you hate this album, you're gonna grow old and be bitter about future music. yall wanna be nostalgic so bad and relate to the "good ol days" so bad like dayum what Abel is doing on this album is MILES ahead of his contemporaries and it shows
fr bruh. there is no way you can think this album is below a 9
starry eyes couldve used some more work imo
some drums or smthn it kinda just goes nowhere

do you think it sounds good at what it's attempting to do tho? like without factoring in newness or being "futuristic?"
this is just straight up better music to me than After Hours. I can appreciate that at its very core
gasoline and best friends my top 2 on first listen, less than zero up there too
f*** me i forgot sacrifice goddamnit this album is so good
