I feel like no one understands that imagery is an important part of writing songs even though it makes the album sound odd😓😓 I love this album with my whole heart and I was so surprised that there even was hate!

Ya not gonna pay any attention to your vids if you skip the entire reaction.

Hot Sugar is my favorite song on that album. Idc what he was Tryna say but the instrumentals on that was amazing

the album was great, still is great, and now their new one is great too

look the e n u n c i a t i o n in hot sugar is too DIE for

XO ✨

The album is perfection. I personally think anyone who says its bad is letting their opinion of mgk as a person get in the way...or theyre just jealous

Tokyo Drifting is my favorite on the album, how can you not like that song it slapsssss

i think the bats represent my dear meonchloy cause it was in the cal out my name video he spits out bats, and the bats brought him to after hours

Ru a origin 😌💫

If u watch the episode Roger is living the weekends life with the dreads look it's awesome

space ghoeast coast to coast is about a school shooting that his childhood friend did i think

I listened to it full through, ready to hate it and found that... It's not as bad as I thought but just so incredibly unremarkable. The guitars are so muted and yes "compressed," it sounds like they're being played through a wall. His raspy voice would be fine but the dude has exactly zero control over it and it's just so obvious where they had to save him with autotune. He also smokes like a chimney and sounds out of breath on a record of all places. When his guests take over vocals you're instantly reminded what good singing is. It's just so production heavy because it needed to be to save him. Idk.. 4/10

I just heard of them and space ghost was the first song and I loved it. So I have no expectations. Going to check out their older stuff since a lot of people seem to be disappointed.

This album only really appeals to a specific type of person... You are not that type of person

Bro do you only listen to music for lyrics??... Like do you even try to enjoy instrumentals?

Space ghost coast to coast is based off a true story that Dave experience, he was friends with a kid when he was younger and all the things mentioned in the song. Eventually they grew distant when they moved away from each-other, later on in life Dave found out that kid became an attempted school shooter. The song I sung from the song is about an Ex-Friend and how they became an attempted school shooter, the singer of the song is reminiscing about times before the incident.

Domestic bliss is about one of dave's friend's mother being in an abusive relasionship

The concept of the album is exploitation. How humans exploit everything from nature to ideals to people themselves. Or that’s at least what I got from it

What hurts me the most is how that we feel old to this generation or the next and personally I been feeling like that ever since months after Covid started and it as much as Lofi music is relaxing..it feels depressing to hear and it's been draining my motivation to even play games and thinking of life that I'm gonna die soon when the time comes even tho I wanted to stay young for the rest of my life..i just can't escape fate of death is apon me and all of us 💔

You def gotta check out Lupe's Drill music in zion

idk what people were expecting. like no one listens to a rap album and is like “bro it’s just rap. like every song is..RAP?!? where’s the country or the pop?? you’re telling me a rap album has only RAP SONGS?!?” like yeah bro. it’s a pop punk/rock album. meaning all of the songs are going to be..you guessed it ✨rock or pop punk✨

That beat is a sample from a videogame track. Move Me from Ridge Racer Type 4

Tbh I'm biased AF cuz my sister loves Glass Animals and it was pretty early into the pandemic, so I went into it expecting to at least half-like it and was desperate for new music, but i kinda dug it right out the box. Nice, soft, kinda lofi pop

obviously she doesn't know what she's talking about. So many jams and bops including Heat Waves mega hit!

How the f*ck do you not LOVE this album.

Hey I know this video was years ago but I just found it and I think you really need this! Crybaby meanings/interpretations 🍼 💦 (This album follows the story of Crybaby's childhood, her family, love and more. Crybaby is played by Melanie.) Crybaby 👶🏻 - Being a vulnerable person and being dismissed as weak. Shows the birth of Crybaby. Dollhouse 💒- Having a messy, broken family but to others they see them as happy and perfect. Her family puts on a front to the outsiders but only she know what's it's really like. Her father cheats on her mother, her brother is a druggie and her mother is an alcoholic, Crybaby is the only sane person. Sippy cup 🍼- Your actions still matter/count even if you try to cover them up. The example Crybaby uses for her alcoholic mother is how she drugs Crybaby with fluid in a sippy cup to forget how her mother murdered her father. If you were to re-phrase the lyrics you'd get something like, " Lies are still lies if you cover them up." Carousel 🎠- Crybay feels trapped in her relationship and feels it's not going anywhere ; they just keep going round and round like a carousel. It shows how their love is unhealthy but addictive. Alphabet boy 🎓- This song is about one of Melanie's exes who commented on her song writing skills, telling her she should add poetry. Soap 🧼- This story shows Crybaby's first love, she gets attached and says 'I love you' too soon and feels she should wash her mouth out with soap. Training wheels 🚴- Again Crybaby's first love, this one can be interpreted two ways. Crybaby pushing her lover to move onto the next step of their relationship and the both of them losing their virginity. Pity Party 🎉 - Crybaby throws a birthday party but nobody arrives so she eats all the cake herself. Tag, you're it 🐺- After her unsuccessful party, Crybaby goes to a shop being followed by a wolf in an ice-cream van. Being drugged by his ice-cream, she gets abducted by him and taken to his secret lair. Milk and cookies 🍪- Crybaby is forced to make milk and cookies in the wolfs lair and she tries to plan her escape. In the shop, a woman gave her a blue substance which she puts in the cookie mix and poisons the wolf, she manages to escape. Pacify her 🤫- Crybaby is in competition for a boy with another woman. He prefers Crybaby but ends up with the other woman after being aroused by her body. Mrs. Potato head 🥔- Crybaby feels insecure about her body after seeing advertisements for diet pills and blonde wigs. The story follows another woman who gets surgery for her man. Her surgery fails and her man hates her face, in disgust he cheats on her with another woman. Mad hatter 🐰- Crybaby tastes a magic liquid that makes her go through a trance. After waking up she gains a power to do whatever she pleases while turning her eyes black. The lady who gave her the blue drink also has this power. She accepts that's she's different and crazier than everyone else. __________________________ Deluxe tracks do not follow Crybaby's story, they are a stand alone. Playdate 🛼- She's confused why her partner is distant and can't figure them out. She leaves them but soon realises if they learn to communicate the relationship can work. Teddy bear 🧸- Follows domestic abuse and the s/o turning from a nice comforting person into somebody who's violent. Cake 🎂- She feels like she's being used for sex and he sees her as a toy and nothing more. She shows affection towards him but the emotion is never reciprocated. That's it, hope this helped! There could be way more adaptations to the song meanings as they're quite deep. I've been a Crybaby for about five years and this is what I've gathered from myself and the fandom! 😊

Mainstream sellout is a really good album! But tickets to my downfall will be his best album.

Mgks best album

This aged like fine milk

garbage album imo

I have no clue what kind of music that guy likes, he trash cans everything

Great album

love your reviews so much!! thank you for being impartial lol

Album is generic trash

I love glas animal

I missed domestic bliss the first time as well, but damn that song hits differently now. It's interesting how Heat Waves is literally peaking at #1 on charts over a year later. Don't think i've seen a surge that late from an album release.

The albums strong point and or defense? "It's just...okay." Hence why it's actually generic af.

Put your eyebrows down, damn.

"That one's not it." *song proceeds to reach number 1 and exceeds a billion plays on spotify*

“a really good cover” 🧐 really?

If it's not for you, it's not for you. Have a nice day!

Game changing when you realize Travis Barker is the mastermind behind the songs and MGK basically just an actor on his own album

I've been in absolute ADORE with Glass Animals since I found them while I was homeless on the streets of NYC! Zaba and 'Gooey' kept me sane during a time where I was the most miserable I've EVER been in my Life! I was dealing with and recovering from bruises, burns, and sickening stalkings by a psycho bf, and when I would walk down 8th Ave in Manhattan, the music of Glass Animals literally made me feel free and reminded me of who I truly am, and that I am NOT some homeless, veteran, junkie holding a sign! Their music truly and honestly saved my Life! When I listen to the songs from Zaba, it takes me back to those noisy New York streets and back to the loneliness AND freedom that I felt! Now, when I hear their new album, it reminds me of how Life can change. EVERYTHING can change, and Glass Animals can too. Idk if this has sounded corny or not, but the truth is that I feel like this new album is another change for the group in their new direction, and I too, am gratefully and happily swept along the wave! I know this is a long comment, but it's true! Their music saved my life and has helped me heal. I work and drive a nice car now. I'm but materialistic, but I'm not in that mire anymore; still listening to Glass Animals! I wish thanking them in person was possible, but for now I'm sending my acclaims. Great job, y'all! Your music has done more for others than you know! 😊

Biggest thing was the lyrics in this album for me. Instrumentals were nice and i caught my head bobbing to the music a couple times just to get COMPLETELY taken out by some of the cringe shit mgk says 😭

Mgk was is and will always be trash, just like this crap

i think its because this is an impression of a pop punk album is what makes it sound shitty

My man got roasted so hard in Killshot he had to change genre’s

Pretty good for a rappers first rock album wouldn't you say?

#1 album of the year btw
