This album seems to have a focus that Colors lacked. And looking at it this way, Colors was BTBAM's first real forage into overtly progressive territory, so their experimentation makes sense. I just think they settled into their prog-mold a little better this time. Like, Colors really was a "fuck man look what I can do" album on everybody's part and with this album, now that they've made their jumbled and comically-spastic talent apparent already, they decided to turn it all into something cohesive - or as Ali said, "a lot more refined." And not so inherently dumb.



The entire thing, especially when compared to Colors, is a lot more discordant/dissonant/otherwordly (and not just because of the audio clips; scales, progressions, everything), whereas Colors was very consonant; almost symphonically orchestrated at times. The albums really don't sound that similar.

I think I would maybe like this better than Colors if a few songs were a bit shorter, they added one excellent 6~ minute track, and the final song was better.



I mean seriously WHITTTTTEEEE WALLLLLSSS (JUN JUN JUN)
