This album is such a classic man. One of those albums that has strong memories tied to it, or even if you're unfamiliar with their work, this is just so consistent and back-to-back bangers. With bouncy, metal influenced riffs, the usage of electronics, and the contrast of Mike Shinoda and Chester Bennington makes for a memorable and unique experience. Whether you love it or not, it's an album you won't forget.
This may not be the best or most polished mixtape, but it's one of my most replayed. To me, this is his darkest and most drugged out release. The experimentation and the beats aren't as strong as on Rodeo, but still contains songs that are worth revisiting.
This compilation features experimentation and unfinished demos, with some tracks appearing on later releases. An intriguing listen if you want to hear some of Joel's early days before Random Album Title.
A bit more unpolished compared to 808s & Dark Grapes II or Blackberry Kush, but this is a great mixtape for those who want to hear more Friendzone x Main Attrakionz in their prime.
Blackbirds is an amazing song for being a throwaway demo track. It would've fit so much better as a bonus track on Minutes to Midnight or A Thousand Suns then here.
