I’m into the newer structure and I’m glad the sauce of the closing moments are still intact, but the intro of the original and the lyrical structure in the original is better. It’s harder to gauge because if this was the only version we knew, it would still be lauded as incredible.
City Walls is the song I’d show someone to get the jist of twenty one pilots, Tally is the song I’d show someone as an “all eras represented” song, and Drag Path is probably the band’s most all encompassing song, telling the entire Trench saga in one song. Pretty much a perfect song.
One of the greatest written songs. A song that’s both timeless and lyrically literally ages better and better. Love that there’s no chorus, but just a familiar vocal melody. It also does something that can either pain me on a song or be the entire point of a song, and that’s the fourth wall break in “… the song is over, thought I’d have more to say,” before going into the reprise for Breathe (“Home, home again…”).

Kinda of an up and down release, good song, then meh song, then great song, etc. Aeroplane is my personal highlight from the release. Cool pop forward post-punk revival inspired indie rock.
Despite the octane-isms of the track, I do enjoy the way the song is structured. Hollywood Undead is definitely leaning in a direction that I’ve always thought would benefit them; this pop rock meets rap rock with smidges of heavier rock/metal, which has always been in the DNA of Hollywood Undead but there’s more sprinkles of the Rap Metal side as opposed to standard Rap Rock. Overall it’s alright.
Solid emo release musically, good voice; man this guy likes calling women whores.
Pretty cool album, really wish Spotify had this album cover. Something it is so hypnotizing.
Metro Boomin is the absolute highlight of this album; Future is okay.
The song, itself, feels like an event. The payoff of an hour long folk album in 8 minutes.
It’s very typical indietronica radio pop rock. V-neck shirts all over this shit. Speakers was a fine song.
I quite liked the emphasis of Alternative Rock on songs like Irish Blood, English Heart; Morrissey’s voice is very good on the whole album.
Nothing like what I thought; very very unique in the band’s catalogue… it’s pretty alright on a first listen!

"While King Park is the more emphasis on the heavier post-hardcore that I enjoy and TLLC is probably my favorite La Dispute song lyrically, ECF could go down as the most definitive La Dispute song."
