I think the reason this is my favourite album is because it's sonically unmatched and was more than just the music. Like there have been albums that come close like Lorn's stuff but Kiss Land just has a rly specific sound which I just love. I also love the style of the album so much like green is my favourite colour and it's everywhere. And I love japanese aesthetics too it adds so much character to the album especially with Oxcy. I also feel like this album shows how important promotion makes an album even better. Like when he posted those teaser vids, the concert trailers, the Oxcy character, the music videos man I just love everything about this album lol

It’s so cinematic, heavily industrial music and definitely has its own theme and mood. Absolutely his most poetic album and my personal favorite.

Nobody wants to admit it, but this is his best album. Literally no other artist has put out an album with so much truth and honestly about their pain and the pain they cause to others. The production alone proves how amazing it is. I really wish I knew his creative process making this masterpiece. I also wish he recognized this as the undefeated album it is. Finally last year he gave it more acknowledgment but I really hope it’s on his next setlist. Fingers crossed 🤞🏾🤞🏾

Kiss Land is my favorite weeknd album besides Trilogy. In early 2013, I started listening to the weeknd heavily and listened to Trilogy as a whole for the first time and it was the best body of music I ever heard. It completely changed my life and helped me cope with a bad breakup with my HS sweetheart. I listened it everyday until Kiss Land came out and Kiss Land just blew me away. It was very lyrical, it was dark, it was deep and it was different. One of my biggest regrets in life is not going to the Kiss Land tour but I’ve been to every tour since. Kiss Land is my favorite studio album of his because it’s so raw and takes you to a different place. It’s not for everyone, you have to be in a certain frame of mind to really understand it and appreciate it. I love the weeknd and it’s bitter sweet that after Kiss Land he went commercial pop. I feel like if people appreciated what he did with KL more he would’ve continued with that sound. We still have elements of trilogy/KL weeknd in his new music but it’s not the same. I will never forget how Kiss Land made me feel in 2013 and beyond. All hail Kiss Land 🖤💚

Kiss Land was such a personal-feeling album. Up until After Hours, it felt like the only album that was a reflection of Trilogy as an evolution to studio album status and quality. Which makes sense, seeing as how it was his debut studio album. But it wasn't his commercial breakthrough, we wouldn't get that until Beauty Madness. He does say that Kiss Land is the only album he feels like he could make a sequel to. Am I the only one who feels like After Hours is kind of a spiritual successor?

Of course I love After Hours and BBTM but Kissland just hits different especially since it came out when I was in high school and listening to it now as an adult, the lyrics resonate with me even more and I’m still uncovering things from this album. Also it has Tears in the Rain and the title track Kissland on it which are my top 5 favorite Weeknd songs

Thank you so much for putting this together. Kiss Land is one of my all time favorite albums and it makes me happy when it gets the recognition it deserves. This entire album is such an emotional, theatrical rollercoaster that stands completely on it’s own. No matter how much I’ve listened to it I STILL continue to find new layers and hidden meanings throughout it all. It truly is the gift that keeps on giving. Hearing Abels sheer emotions throughout After Hours (especially on Until I Bleed Out) put tears in my eyes. I’m sincerely hoping he will apply that same emotional vulnerability on his new album. I think all the cards are in his favor for him to make an album that feels reminiscent of Kiss Land. Fuck, I would love nothing more than that.

House of balloons was the establishment of who The Weeknd is. Kiss land is the story of the tour life and a universe filled with horror. Beauty behind the madness blew Abel up with the hills, I can’t feel my face, in the night, etc… and established more about who he is. Starboy is well about a Starboy.My Dear Melancholy is about him going threw a break up nothing new like Mintrom Movies said almost every Weeknd album (-Starboy) is about a break up or him losing something his faith etc…After hours is him trying to get the girl back but threw out the album he’s want’s her “Out of my dreams” and establishing more about who he is in this modern time. We’ll have to see what the next albums about when it comes out next year. Appreciate the video man kiss land is a good album but it was rushed and it disappeared out of people minds to fast.

Kissland isn’t personally my favorite, but I genuinely think that it is his best album. It has a distinct sound and tells a story the whole way through, and the songwriting is just on another level.

this was my intro album to the weeknd the week it released and i was hooked instantly with how theatrical the production was and how great his voice sounded on these songs while saying some outlandish things. it will always hold a special place in his discography for me. great analysis

My favourite album of his, more than the original three mixtapes. The emotions and themes behind kiss land are absolutely insane man. Always feel some type of way listening to it.

Kissland is my favourite The weeknd album ever and after that its starboy. Kissland has such dark uet grandiose themes. He sucks you into the world of an upcoming artist how this industry is so rewarding and big but yet so brutal heartless. My Fav album of all time 💚💚💚

I genuinely preferred Kiss Land to Trilogy. It was sonically more pleasant, better aesthetically, more dreadful, creepy and haunting yet contemplative for a person whose life gets consumed by hedonistic desires with all its clear but rough edges. Belong to the World is my favorite song off the album. Shit slaps. Always will slap besides Live For and not egotistic the way BBTM or Starboy was.

Idk why I never really got a horror movie feel from the album I got like a weird dystopian city feel like fifth element or blade runner but set in the present idk how to describe it. It feels like its set in a dark city not in a scary horror way but in a its set in the shady underworld of a corrupt city.

listened to his discography start to finish (across the span of a couple days) last year and Kissland just made me feel something. the rest of his albums were good but this one just made me stop and really listen. definitely my favorite from him.

My top 6 albums are literally all abels projects, thinking of trilogy as one piece, it comes first 100%, but second is and always will be a close 2nd, I hear people talking about it and I just don’t understand ☹️ it’s beautiful
