interesting. yea i can def see that. like even when it emanates hopelessness it's moreso in this social / party context. which might not be indicative of inveterate depression lol. but eh who knows.

its impossible to read into art too much, especially when its genius. you are in charge of the meaning.



and yes, this oozes a sense of cynicism about our current state. the lyrics reference suicide, emptiness, and self harm constantly. even if this is for aesthetic reason, or whatever reason we wish to presume as reasonable and/ or correct, it still paints a powerful dystopian image of a time where technology and the club scene leave those involved feeling empty, constantly chasing pleasure but never achieving fulfillment of the soul. thats what this record is to me; an outcry of the soul. the sense of longing in the melodies and Robert Smith-esque approach give it this air of sublimely introspective reflecting on the cold reality which Bladee inhabits. this is really reflected in 'skin' and 'xd out', which i find to be among the most gorgeous tracks. but the production is so mindblowing in its frigid vision. ive really never experienced anything like it.

"its impossible to read into art too much, especially when its genius. you are in charge of the meaning."

this is half-right. genius has nothing to do with it. but if you can back up a reading with hard evidence that supports it (like you just did) that reading is valid. love the hell out of this record and glad you do too man

at first i hated this, or thought i did, because that was me not really listening to it (i had an aversion to the autotune, upon my first exposure), and the cold sound of it really made me feel uneasy, and i wasn't sure how to feel. put on some good headphones, and fell in love.

nice analysis. and yea the heavy autotune tends to be a turnoff and is, from what i've experienced, the initial major hurdle for ppl who aren't particularly familiar with this style of music.

Didn't Sach used to have this a lot higher

so did whitearmor create most of the synths, guitar, etc on here? sounds like very little use of samples

Album Rating: 4.0

amazing

Album Rating: 3.5 | Sound Off

source? ive been doing production for a long time and just from listening to this quite a few times i doubt that its just stock synths, seeing how easy it is to compose rather than fit in a sample constantly throughout a whole release. i was mostly curious about the guitar parts
