Absolutely flawless album. The story plays out so nice and the aesthetic is so nice
Genuinely feels like watching a movie at times.
It's SOOO well made and its features some of his best vocal performances ever
The overall vibe he managed to capture with this one is something extremely impressive and he hasnt done anything as good since.
I suppose Dawn FM would be the closest to this, but I don't like the actual music as much on that one.
easy 10/10
on the VERY long side for sure but it holds up solidly throughout

Felt like I was underrating it a bit, so I revisited it. It's very very ambient, but I think it suits it well. The highest this'll ever go for me is like a 95, there's just one or two sogs that I can't see connecting with me like that, and it's so very long so it's fair enough honestly. I'm sure I'll be back to another full listen another time.
absolutely incredible concept album
knots is one of the best songs on the planet

look bro i dont care this is so beautifully and perfectly crafted man. it took MANY listens but yeah im convinced that this is absolutely perfect me. speaks to me in a way that any other album never could.
Beautiful.
10/10
Absolutely Amazing
LOOK. I completely understand every single criticism that this album has against it. I understand every 3/10, every 5/10, even every 1/10 if I'm being honest. I understand all that.
But WOW do I disagree so hard. It's a masterpiece, and Tyler's best project to date easily. Also my favourite album of all time and damn does it deserve it.
The blend of pure chaos and jazz music is genuinely unreal lmao and I love it so much. Having Pilot and Okaga, CA on the same album is ... read more

IDC THIS SHIT IS SO GOOD DUDE
yall dont understand it like i do. This album has literally been a part of me for half my entire life, and it still sounds just as good to do this day. I love this so much bro, I'm not really sure why people don't like it too much but it is how it is I suppose
PROUDLY the only 100 on this, absolutely deserves it

Perfection.
Just... Perfect. Every loop, every chord progression and every drop feels perfectly crafted. I adore the way all the tracks flow into each other SEAMLESSLY.
Some might call it repetitive and/or boring, but they just cant see the appeal. The progression is what makes it perfect, you need the slow build ups to make it all worth it. Sure, the songs are long but the sound and vibe of it is just so perfect. When you really let it flow through you, tracks like Slip and Alone with You ... read more
