you haters suck. for real.

I agree dopamine is beautiful. I really dig this song.I also really like wrath. I find it funny how music is art and art is subjective yet if I like a song I'm tone deaf or something. It's like how some people think Banksy is brilliant when personally I wouldn't put his shit on my wall if you payed me. I would sell it because I know some clown would pay a lot of money for it and I respect that. Just because I think it's rubbish doesn't mean it is to someone else. Who amongst you is the official authority on what is good music and what is garbage, just curious? Don't give me the usual bad production, dry vocals, no guitar solos because not all of us care about those continual go to talking points. (Only the latter seems to exist on this album anyway and I've always liked electronic SP) I respect bc because he's evolved big time unlike 99% of the bands of the 90's that "play it safe" and put out the same sound over and over and over again.

[Ram27]

okay bill why the fuck would you make guitars sound this much like keys? just to troll us like nUUHHHUHHH HJAMES IS PLAYING GHYTAR unTR00

[vajohna]

I like both tracks. Wrath especially.

[Ram27]

who the fuck ARE these people on his insta like *much love billy! love the songs, there's so much there if you just listen!!*

did i fuck my brain up abusing drugs or do these not have memorable tunes or words or arrangements? it's like 15 minutes of synth and shitty singing

Last night as I was trying to fall asleep, strange thoughts began to assail me. Can it really be? Do I like Smashing Pumkins again? Wherefore, wherefore? And, alas! what if I listen to other SP like Monuments and like that too?!?

And I going insane?!?

naw bro you're spot on.. i'm also reading the comments and being like what reality is this?

[FoolofaTook]

colour is FIRE. getting MASSIVE cure vibes.

you guys need to take a step back, a deep breath, and strip away your preconceived prejudiced snake-skins and empty out you rectal hoards of bitterness and malice.

then ... bask in the bliss of a full-on billiam resurgence!!

They are going for 4 different / well defined styles. We only heard side A songs so far, which is the synth pop collection of songs.

I heard that side B songs are all mumble rap style

[enthusaroo]

In positive news.. The new Sufjan Stevens album came out today and it's pretty awesome!

You’re getting massive Cure vibes because it’s literally A Forest by the Cure.

Weird time to get excited about the band all of a sudden but you are a strange one. Truly a fool

[FoolofaTook]

I know, I know. I keep thinking this is all some arch-foolfish tookery, but we'll see. Time will tell. I got excited about Tarantula as well back in the day ...


Mumble rap is the shit, btw. And Sufjan too. Some of you need to extract your heads from your anooses.

Isn't that a song from Monuments?

[FoolofaTook]

lol


when i break i stay broken is a classic line btw.

[incubator]

I’ve changed my mind on these songs after watching the videos in album order. The In Ashes videos are really good and work very well with the music.

[vitaldust]

Wrath is great and could easily be a Machina I song

Love the electo-menace of Dopamine

I don't understand how you could like SP and not be excited right now.

[smashingjj]

Shall i explain?

I've known more stake than the night birds call

Cold, the mornings lie awake
Yet so afraid, you broke
Cold, receding
Cold
Prevailing, cold
Preceding
One dark road
To go

If there's heaven, there's a ___ soul
Just
Near the ___ that wrath
Into love, like dust
But when I break I stay broken
I sought my revenge in my daughter's breath
But I've known more strength than the Watchmen
And I've known more luck than ____

Cold, the mornings lie awake
Yet so afraid, you broke
Cold, receding
Cold
Prevailing, cold
Preceding,
One dark road
To go
(to go, to go)
Go where you know
(you know, you know)
Seek where you hide
On one dark road

Go,
(You gotta go)
Go where you know
(You know, you know)
Seek where you hide
On one dark road
Cold
The mornings rose awake
Yet so afraid, but cold
It's ___
The unknowns ever away
If I as wait
Would you know?
You're cold

I'm digging what I can make off the lyrics

Bots frum simerian or sadmachine wives flippin out on youtube.
Not a 100 comments.... is that significant or are the sp in any top 20 anywhere in the world with these tracks?

[brothahi4L]

After some listens i like wrath and dopamine. Growing
As so. Said there are some great vocal hooks and emotions in there.
I can live with the synths and i really dig the *gorillaz* bass in dopamine.

My hopes are back. 16 songs left....

[Ram27]

i listened to the tracks in album order and they're a bit better. the varying levels of shittiness sort of contrast with each other to make each song seem better

Hey look, someone with an opinion that doesn't match mine. IT'S A BOT! How could anyone disagree with me, right?

[Joey Goldberg]

there's a line in the choruses of Dopamine that specifically make me go off like i did in the other thread over the way Bill's singing some of this shit. "when the STAHS say to MA face, ch'ANGE on ch'ANGE!" i just can't do it. the first time around i actually started laughing because of how ridiculous it was, but now i kind of tilt my head & raise an eyebrow like a fuckin' dog in pure bewilderment

[brothahi4L]

Jesus christ joe.... so dissppointed with the 4 songs. I mean cyr is horrible..the rest is 7/10

[ninsp]

I can’t imagine ever listening to any of these around anyone else and not being incredibly embarrassed

[ninsp]

I didn’t even finish listening to Wrath
This is the most wussy fragile whiny music he’s ever made

[ninsp]

Cyr is the only OK song out of the 4

[houseofglass11]

No, Wrath is the best one by far.
