Haven't revisited Twenty One Pilots in a long time. I got disillusioned a little bit because I started listening to them when I was 13 along with a lot of shitty bands, so when I stopped listening to the shitty bands I kind of unjustly lumped Twenty One Pilots in with them. But reading this review and all the comments from when they were still an underground indie band, before it became cool to shit on them, made me want to revisit this album. No, I no longer think they're the greatest band of all time or that their lyrics are completely groundbreaking or anything, but damnit if there aren't some fucking solid cuts on this album. I haven't been able to separate their music from their annoying fanbase in a while, but now that I have I feel like I'm starting to fall in love with this album all over again. Whether it's just nostalgia or if this album is genuinely good I might never know, but everything I felt listening to it the first time when I was 13 is all coming back to me now. Anyway I'm hella tired rn but I just wanted to rant about how much I love this album. Idk what I'd rate it, still need more time to try to separate all the nostalgia.
