I might have a Utah bias here

Edit (6/11/24) 95 -> 88
There was a Utah bias

This album scratches an itch in my brain than none other can

Beat: Celebrate (criminally underrated)

Worst: Your Prime (still a good song)

Quite impressed. Will have to give this a re-listen soon

Best: Dusk

Worst: Salt

Doesn’t really miss, just feels somewhat empty as a whole

Short and sweet

Best: Still

Worst: Sold Out

Looses most things that make it good as you go through the track list. Is it just me or does he sound like Hugh Jackman at times? (mainly on "Give Me the Ghost Back")

Best: King of Sweden

Worst: The Sickness

While the quality is consistent, after the third song, it gets a bit dull.

Best: I Know That It's Like This (Baby)

Worst: I Hold Something in My Hand

Not bad... just uninteresting at times.

Best: Jermanie's Graduation

Worst: Big Tymers

Underrated

Best: POP POP POP

Worst: Monolith

Shows quite a bit of promise but some of these lyrics are not ideal.

Best: dancinwithsomebawdy

Worst: paystub

This could grow on me very seriously. By far the most emotion I've heard from MGMT.

Best: Loss of Life

Worst: Dancing In Babylon

Disappointing

Best: the boy is mine

Worst: i wish i hated you

Random Thought. Is it just me or does "we can't be friends (wait for your love)" sound like a bad attempt to re-create a Taylor Swift song from 7-9 years ago

Doesn't have too much going for it. This is a clusterfuck.

Best: Doomsday

Worst: Hello There

If you turn off your brain and don't listen to any of the lyrics... it's just okay.

Best: Father to a Son

Worst: Bobby Sox, Strange Days are Here to Stay

I don't think there is any way to defend this. Cudi managed to make an album that doesn't have too many terrible moments but just is so bloated with such uninteresting songs. During half of these songs it doesn't even sound like he cares and somehow there's not even one good feature. BLUE SKY is the only track I could really get into because it's the only one that sounds different. Overall... it's not the worst thing I've heard but there isn't a lot going for it.

Best: BLUE SKY

Worst: AT THE ... read more

The last four tracks on this are insane. Overall, one of the most attention grabbing albums I've listened to this year.

Best: the CIA, commatose

Worst: slip under the door (sorry)

Pretty consistent. Not the most mind blowing performance from Kali but still quite interesting.

Best: Te Mata

Worst: Munekita

Some great moments but some equally bad ones. This album could have easily been 7ish songs and been way better.

Best: Red Sky

Worst: Sneaky

If you're able to ignore most of the lyrics, it's amazing

Best: If We Being Real

Worst: 2093

Best: Underdressed at the Symphony

Worst: Feeling Good Today
