[guzzy]

[guzzy]

[broncos19dm]

I can see why some of you aren't really feeling it but the tracks are cool to me, def have replay value 

.

 

[a blinkin]

Want to listen but I don't want to download it to my work computer. What's the overall sound of it comparable to? Trilogy, KL, BBtM?

It's definitely not tears in the rain or kotf so you will probably love it :]

[stick]

It's pure trash imo . Only 1, MAYBE 2 tracks have replay value.

I'm always late for yall's discussions, but Kiss Land is classic quality, but unfortunately
not a classic in reverence. 
The writing on that album>>>>>>>>>
The production is breath-taking.
The darkness he taps into on that album.
The visuals that accompanied that album.
The "story" and themes of Kiss Land are great too.

Live for is the only low spot on that album.
The wanderlust remix is better than the og.
Tears In The Rain is epic, and given the context of the entire song
the long intro is almost necessary. 
Although that vid of whoadie in the car was funny, I must admit.
I feel like "Adapted" is an underrated cut off that album.
"I've laid my head on a thousand beds,
It's been a test to see how far a man can go without himself,
I think I lost the only piece that held it all in place,
Now my madness is the only love I let myself embrace" 

"Kiss Land is Abel at the start of his rise. A man violently confronted by his success and growth."
"Kiss Land is a conversation between a hometown and a man who has outgrown his home"
"The "horror" of Kiss Land is coming home and realizing that it and the people in it no longer exist- and neither does the old u"

I'm not a music reviewer, prolly for good reason, but Kiss Land is along with Thursday the best work
that Abel has ever released. 
I can easily see myself playing Kiss Land twenty years from now and being brought back to
the exact moment I first heard it, and I know there are people in this thread who feel the same way.
That's classic.

Solid post about KL

Listening to the leak right now. Yall crazy man 3 songs in and I f**** with it. Be God's chorus is annoying but what he's saying is dope.

 

[robtoofresco]

Y'ALL KNOW WHY I'M HERE.

FEED ME.

 

[Narcissist]

Y'ALL KNOW WHY I'M HERE.

FEED ME.

Link I had got taken down, sorry fam.

 

[northoaklandfc]

5 tracks in (accidentally started on shuffle so random sequencing) but this is dope so far.

Obviously it's not Kissland quality but idk what other people are hearing, this is very welcomed.

 

[deleted]

What's going on in here?

How many tracks are out?

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

I think it's the bbtm effect

These tracks are decent. Idk

 

[Rumble Gang]

Yea if you're looking for a crafty production, this isn't for you. But if you appreciate old Abel and his vocals and that lifted feel, then take a listen

Be God is ruthless.

 

[northoaklandfc]

God damn Beautiful Desires is good.

I Wanna Feel You

Be Amazing Be God


Production is pretty good on most of these, nice and dark, it's just not polished like BBTM or KL, some of its not even finished.

The production doesn't necessarily jump out at you, it's just good and it fits.

I highly suggest yall just listen to this. Don't go into thinking these are unreleased for a reason, it's gonna be subpar, etc.

 

[Narcissist]

Be Amazing, Be God
Beautiful Desires/How Will I Know
I Wanna Feel You

Sound the best production wise

 

[Rumble Gang]

Really?



.......

What?
