Magdalena Bay - Imaginal Disk FIRST Reaction/Review

[@jordanhernandez2329]

Welcome to the Magdalena Bay fan club. We have t-shirts, on Tuesdays we wear blue.

[@Definitionofill92]

Thank you! 🤣🙏🏾

[@Austyn59913]

Fear, Sex is my song of the year. it’s impeccable

[@jordanmalone2547]

I agree, death and romance leading into it too is so perfect. Every song does that shit so well but that transition is my favorite. Image to that and fear sex is just insanity

[@lawbinson]

I appreciate that you’re not constantly cutting and stopping the music to react.

[@Definitionofill92]

Thank you! I feel like it’s a better experience to listen through

[@DingLiren-nw2vj]

I mean if you want uncut music listen to the album 😉

[@lawbinson]

@@DingLiren-nw2vj There is a difference though. There are reactors who cut every few seconds to interject. Personally I find those really difficult to watch / listen to. But, if they just vibe and react mostly as the song plays or after the song, I enjoy those a lot more.

[@DingLiren-nw2vj]

@@lawbinson it sounds like you don't really like reaction content you just like the content they're reacting to

[@lawbinson]

@@DingLiren-nw2vj Sounds like you don’t get the point… I mean, I literally posted in my comment on this reaction video that I liked this reaction video…

[@unimpressedalchemist]

Watching TV has been my favorite since first listen. So cinematic!

[@raazberry7586]

every single time i listen to this album, i find something new to love about it. hasn't left my on repeat since i was released and honestly it's going to take a long, long time before i'm tired of listening to these songs. loved the video

[@Definitionofill92]

Thank you for watching! The album is still in rotation for me as well. I wish I were able to see them live, show was sold out for months lol

[@xcBlackDiamond]

Love that you recognize how good the live drums are across the whole thing

[@Definitionofill92]

Thank you for tapping in! 🙌🏾

[@georgetanner9953]

Album of the year & probably my favorite album of the 2020’s so far. I can’t find a single flaw in this album, and their Nashville show was probably the best concert I’ve ever been to

[@Austyn59913]

no way !!! saw this notif and had to tap in!! you are the best reactor on this app

[@KingOfReeses]

deadass

[@Cinder36]

Literally my favorite reaction channel.

[@MrBaumGeo]

The iLLest

[@Definitionofill92]

Thanks! Love y’all 🙏🏾

[@devinup3981]

I saw them during their Mercurial World tour. It was an awesome concert. I'm sure this current tour would be worth checking out if they're stopping near you.

[@saikojoji4079]

my album of the year, hands down. thank you for the reaction, this album's SO so good

[@Definitionofill92]

Thank you for watching!

[@zimforce3507]

Yoooo I just saw them live!! So glad youre reviewing this album ❤

[@jordanmalone2547]

Yo! How was the show?? Wanted to see them in NC this weekend but it sold out so fast 😢

[@zimforce3507]

@jordanmalone2547 the omaha show👌an sorry to hear that

[@dimitriasimov356]

I am insanely jealous

[@Luuuc]

Kinda cool that we're both largely into hip hop but I hadn't stumbled across your channel until you did a Mag Bay reaction. This album is insane. It's immaculate. Even better than their (excellent) debut. You clearly got great taste so I need to sub and dive in to the rest of your channel.

[@Definitionofill92]

Appreciate you checking out the content! The album just gets better each listen

[@ZephyrFate]

Death & Romance surprisingly a fire track for the gym. The mid-track drop where the bassline comes front and center is such a fucking groove. it's also the single of the year imo

[@givipantsulaya6881]

Bro , listened to the album maybe 50 times. But watched your vid with a pleasure as I was listening to the album for the first time with my good old friend. Appreciate you bro ❤

[@Definitionofill92]

Thank you so much for watching! This album is definitely an experience, still in rotation

[@desert_sky_guy]

"Genre bend" - these two are as good at this as anyone I've ever heard. Layers on layers, blended perfectly every time. Everything in this entire album feels fresh despite obviously being built on that which came before it.

[@cassw5388]

album of my life! i love watching people listen for the first time. i wish i could listen to it again for the first time lol

[@Definitionofill92]

I wish I could too lol

[@Philosophical_Supremacy]

Thank you. I'm watching all of the reaction videos out there for this exact song and your review is spot on (Watching TV) I feel like a lot of people wouldn't take it to the edge with the scream at the end and I think she just broke a barrier

[@Definitionofill92]

That’s my favorite part!

[@zents1989]

u are sooo real for reacting to this. my favorite album outside rap this year . easily top3 overall genres

[@Definitionofill92]

Thank you for watching!

[@bcp8958]

When you said "We locked in" halfway through Tunnel Vision you could not have been more spot on!

[@AfonsoDC]

Watching TV is one of the best songs I’ve heard in my life

[@stevofficialmusic]

So many reaction videos being recommended to me for this album. It’s so refreshing and fun to see others realizing the genius of this album. I love how I’m just jamming along and you’re jamming along too 😂

[@Definitionofill92]

Thank you for watching! This album is one of the best surprises for me this year!

[@noseblunt7482]

Loved seeing your reaction to the outro on Watching T.V. that one is also my favorite on the album!

[@Definitionofill92]

That outro is heavenly!

[@lawbinson]

After a few listens, Vampire in the Corner really snuck up on me in terms of how much I like it. How the vocal starts super raw, then gets layered… The ramp up in all directions, and then how it flows into Watching T.V. is perfect. I feel like those 2 songs make each other better and I think of them as 1 song at this point.

[@goawayinternet]

agreed tbh those songs didnt do much for me at first but now I absolutely love them.

[@lawbinson]

@@goawayinternet 100%

[@jorgsss]

if you like Vampire in the Corner you should check out Baby by Os Mutantes, they're a 70's brazilian psychedelic rock band, for me it has a similar feeling to what you've described besides there are some similar sound elements, like the crescendo distorded guitar riffs

[@lawbinson]

@@jorgsss Very cool. Thanks for the recommendation!

[@Cinder36]

Thanks for jumping on this! Definitely a contendor for album of the year for me. Not sure if you noticed since you usually cut out the end of the songs, but most of the songs transition perfectly into each other! I love when albums (especially concept albums like this one) do that. Their last album, Mecurial World, loops back into itself and has time loop themes throughout, which is also really cool.

[@Definitionofill92]

I definitely noticed the transition on the run back, flows perfectly

[@yamoms0919]

yo! super glad to see this up. This has been my jam of this past week. Excited to see your thoughts

[@justsomejusstsome8994]

Bro I listened to this album while rolling on Molly. BIG RECOMMEND. Was insanely fun

[@yspinkblue7787]

That was literally my first experience with the album and it was fucking great.

[@justsomejusstsome8994]

@@yspinkblue7787 Nurture by Porter Robinson was also amazing to roll on, recommend 100%

[@Definitionofill92]

Lol I can imagine

[@codyallen43]

Listened to it on mushrooms and went on a fucking JOURNEY

[@desert_sky_guy]

Bro Matthew Lewin is a WIZARD producing music. Not taking a thing away from Mica - but Matthew is a straight up baller who understands everything about putting music together on a savant level - and on top of that he understands the technology needed to get there - from acoustic to every bombastic sound you heard in this album. This shit is pure magic.

[@Definitionofill92]

He’s definitely a wizard! Does he have solo stuff?

[@desert_sky_guy]

@@Definitionofill92 Not that I'm aware of - these two are peas in a pod. They had a prog rock (Matt's a huge Rush fan, for instnace) in high school, but then turned to whatever brand of pop this could be called, lol. Almost it's own genre!

[@skrmory]

Glad you liked Watching TV. Thats my favorite mag bay song ever lol

[@lawbinson]

Such greatness in this group. If you liked this, all of their discography is worth checking out. Even their earlier stuff.

[@louisnodskov3222]

saw them live. tunnel vision sounds so so good live. i didn't want the concert to end lmao

[@evilsforreals]

Tunnel Vision, Watching TV, the ICONS you are...

[@stellar_jay]

the way Watching TV breaks down and stutters at the end has reformed me at a molecular level and ive never been the same since

[@Starzoh]

They had my ass at vampire in the corner I was locked in

[@Sevarate.]

I just saw them live for the second time, totally worth it

[@rielivery]

ALBUM OF THE YEAR RIGHT HERE

[@BlGGESTBROTHER]

Saw them live in Seattle on Sep 7th and they put on one hell of a show!

[@Cinder36]

I so wish I could've gone to that! They were sold out! 😭😭

[@BlGGESTBROTHER]

@@Cinder36 Try AXS next time tickets sell out like that! I was able to score a ticket after ticketmaster sold out!

[@Cinder36]

@@BlGGESTBROTHER Ohh, will do!

[@jordanmalone2547]

One of the best albums this year! Can’t wait to watch this whole thang

[@unimpressedalchemist]

I think every reactor I have seen so far looks genuinely flabbergasted by how good Death and Romance is

[@GindleSwang]

Just adding to the voices saying i saw them for this tour, their live show is SO good!

[@lawbinson]

I hope you do get to see them live. They’re not coming to Toronto unfortunately but I saw them open last year and they were great even as an opening act.

[@sharkeyflor]

gotta check out mercurial world now

[@thomas_h4288]

I think you'd enjoy their music videos!! the same way you said the cover matches the songs, the visuals in their videos are very cohesive aswell

[@jess_o]

Album of the year! I love Image too, im using it for my next video

[@spinxenator]

tunnel vision is my cat’s favorite. watching tv is my favorite. they’re playing in my city but it sold out, wicked bummed. or maybe cry for me is my favorite.

[@jessesuny7043]

so glad u were as touched by this album as I was. Fear, sex and watching tv syprememacy!!!

[@falpatrick]

This guy gets it.

[@Definitionofill92]

Appreciate you watching!

[@bentondustman9018]

I saw them live at First Ave in Minneapolis and it's genuinely insane. Their drummer Nick Villa is gross and handles both playing the acoustic kit and the electronic drums so so well.

[@MrBaumGeo]

Thank you nick villa for the drums

[@kiattisakjorasa8773]

Watching tv 📺 the climax it’s so damn cooool dang!🩵💿

[@jacobalanis2271]

Amazing album

[@tesselate8nowait262]

Currently album of the year, slightly above Peggy. Watching TV was my original fave, and it’s still up there, but Cry For Me has taken the top spot after further listens. I only buy REALLY GREAT albums these days, and I special ordered this from my local music store. Transcendent.

[@Definitionofill92]

I feel like I listen to Watching TV once a day lol

[@mavricksone]

Vampire in the Corner song of the DECADE

[@joseluisjaraba2053]

Álbum of the year ❤

[@vertoviaflaneuse]

this album is transcendental

[@Brandon0.]

you should listen to Submarine by the marias!! Sooo good! great reaction!

[@hans-jacobschmidt3172]

As a fellow production nerd, please react to Vespertine by Bjork. Not as loud, but stunning layers and sound production.

[@barnitube]

me llama la atencion la cantidad de review que ay de este album, ya prodriamos decir que al menos en la musica indie, es el disco del año¡¡¡

[@Definitionofill92]

Thank you so much for watching! 🙏🏾

[@joebarnum5098]

Btw, if Love is Everywhere reminds you of anything, its probably because they produced running out of time by Lil Yachty and its the exact same bass line

[@beefcurtains-tx9iv]

+ another fun fact: Magdalena Bay confirmed that Lil Yatchy actually took the sample instrumental from them when they were just making the album on their track.

[@ahr3352]

Yeah this is such a sick album 👏🏼

[@frode0444]

welcome to album of the year

[@brunoalves-pg9eo]

I never noticed that but you're right what the hell?? Spotify sounds better on the web browser than on the desktop app.

[@Definitionofill92]

It doesn’t make sense, Spotifys been pissing me off lately

[@zzaarrcco]

Agree. Apple Music also sounds way bettter in the web rather than the native app imo. Maybe its just that its louder lol.

[@Definitionofill92]

Yeah it’s definitely the loudness lol

[@loveless-u8w]

AOTY for sure

[@MrBaumGeo]

Yes

[@max_435]

You should check out The Loop by Jordan Rakei from a few months back. The instrumental production is sick

[@prodhux]

You should listen to Mercurial World if you want to check out their debut!

[@designer0798]

Unless you live in Nashville or Iceland, the tour is totally sold out. You'd need to get tickets aftermarket

[@justsomejusstsome8994]

Death & Romance SOTY

[@draekon8995]

You ever heard some Tame Impala? the bass in some of these songs is kinda similar to the album Currents

[@Definitionofill92]

I love Tame Impala!

[@mmstan]

I need you to listen to empathogen by WILLOW please it’s so good😭

[@Austyn59913]

so glad you’re enjoying this. believe it or not their debut is somehow even better. both incredible albums tho

[@yuhmuhfuhkuh]

Their debut is NOT better (still very good tho)

Lol no their debut is great but no way better.
