intro post

okay so i realized that i've never done one of these and i kinda want to!! esp for the new people following me and my side account @caitlynspistol, which i plan on keeping even if my fandoms and otp brain rots change

name: wenz (pronounced as when-zzz, or if you're anne, whence is fine too LMAO). it's not my real name but that's what i'm comfortable with on here!

pronouns: she/her.

nicknames: i respond to girl, girlie, dude, or any cute pet names hehe

age: 22

personality type: enfj (protagonist mbti personality). i also relate to harley quinn, lexie grey, annabeth chase, red of hearts, and chloe beale (besides the barging into other people's shower part). more of a golden retriever than a black cat, esp at work and around people i like and can be myself with, but can be a standoffish opinionated moody lil binch if im pissed or annoyed lmao

lgbtq?: yes. i think im labeling myself as bi but leaning towards wlw

country: usa (even tho i be so tired of it sometimes 💀)

comfort fandom: pitch perfect and bechloe! it's the fandom that i originally joined tumblr and got an ao3 account for, and the pairing that i feel the most comfortable and natural writing for

type of content creator: i'm more of a writer than an artist but i'm trying to explore more of my artsy side. i've loved drawing since i was 5. it's just difficult sometimes to motivate myself and practice my art when everyone else is so much better HAHA

i prefer to write drabbles and one-shots more than multi-chapter fics bc my attention span and motivation just. won't let me. but if enough people encourage me and ask for them-!! i also like to write aus? and fluff? and meet-cutes i think :)

current obsession/brain rots: glassheart from descendants the rise of red but im scared that caitvi will take over this spot when the new arcane season releases lmao

others: wenclair from wednesday, chaggie from hazbin hotel, harlivy from dc but mostly the tv show, damie from the haunting of bly manor, percabeth from percy jackson

guilty pleasures: nikkenzie (dork diaries), miraculous ladybug (ADFSJHDSLK MY SISTER GOT ME INTO THIS DON'T COME FOR ME-), sunset shimmer x twilight sparkle

comfort/fav shows: grey's anatomy and friends

comfort/fav movies: tangled, mulan, mean girls, just chick flicks in general ig, the pp franchise

music: i'm a swiftie so pop :) not the ones that are too techno but like soft? but also catchy. i also like throwback 2010s music bc those SLAP

hobbies besides being a part of the fandom: i like to play card games, read/discover contemporary romance books, paint, text or hang out with my friends, do puzzles, be a couch potato, play wild rift (league of legends on mobile), watch asmr videos on tiktok, and just explore the city ig

special tags?: "wenz can talk" for my posts that i just yap in, "w writes" for my writing, "w sketches" for my art

anything else to share: i love getting asks! like from ask meme games or just getting to know you questions, nothing too personal tho! i also welcome any kind of interaction that gets me to talk about my fandoms/brain rots/ships. pls don't be shy lmao: you can interact through tags in a reblog or through an anon ask if you don't know how ima react. worse case scenario i just won't reply? but i'm not gonna judge or bash on you or anything unless you come for me first 😭

[lovedeathalice]

I gotta say tho, JJ Maybank has a nicer more catchy ring to it than Jackson Groff. But Jackson Groff does sound a little more sophisticated than JJ Maybank ig

[scarletlilyy]

Not particularly the biggest fan of ice spice or anything but the hate towards her Is so goofy and random lmao

first off I just wanna say some of her songs are catchy asf and it's carried by the beat, the lyrics r usually questionably bad but idgaf SOME of her releases are great for parties but not something I'd listen to in my past time

anytime ppl cancel it's always from something that's simply not that serious or not her fautl

"all she does is shake ass" AND??💀

she's making money and y'all still attending her concerts so why is everyone so pressed about it (everyone being ig comments tbh)

her body is too dream for btw!!!

speaking of body the ozempic allegations r so stupid, she already had a great body and she still does, her curves are still there she just looks a lil slimmer but with curves not anorexic or anything so idk why everyone's so pressed

not a health expert or anything but won't ozempic literally take away that?💀

and she showed videos of her at the gym losing that weight and ppl still said ozempic cus apparently she didn't have any muscles, which I sorta get but if u pay attention u can see a bit of leg muscle so idk about that one

the most serious allegation she's gotten is something about a 16 girl being featured on her music video shaking ass...

like yes that's pretty bad but why y'all acting like she's the casting director and she purposely went to go seek out the 16 year old girl to shake ass LIKE OBVIOUSLY not

it's so obvious the hatred for this girl is out of jealousy, like hate her all u want she's still making money and hasn't done anything subjectively awful

I feel like it's mostly anger from the fact she's never had to work sm to get to where she is, she's gotten it through pretty privileged from my stand point

but I fear that's how life works unfortunately lmao at the end of the day it's really not that serious 💀

I remember when ppl tried to attack her for having skin texture...

some of y'all need to be slapped I fear.

another thing I want to point out is Nicki's fans (barbs) barking that ice spice is copying Nicki and like ain't no one give a fuck bro

she's finally developing a little bit of flow and y'all say it's copying

barbs sit it out, y'all plus armies, blinks and arianators will forever be one of the most annoying fandoms SMH

oh and how could I forget the cheating allegations lmao, y'all spent more time hating on her (literally being racist) than hating the guy that actually cheated

likeI don't condone cheating and homewreckers but I doubt the whole thing was real. It looks like one hell of pr stunt tbh, but ig ppl forget their critical thinking hats when it comes to hating on women

Overall, people just like to be dramatic no real reason to hate ice spice

def a reason to hate her music tho 🔥

[youredreamingofroo]

hiii!

3, 7 and 9 for the music ask game pls! <3 mwah!

HI VEN!! TY! 💏 Like the last two, you also chose 7, but I will ABSOLUTELY do more "know-all-the-words" songs :)

3: A song you'd choose to introduce someone to your favorite genre

okay.. . . ... ngl I do NOT have a specific genre or even take note of genres like... ever.......... Spotify said my fav genre is "indie:pop" on wrapped so like 😭 ig I'll just share an indie 'pop' song........????? LMAO

idk what defines indie, cuz they have 100k monthly listeners but nobody talks abt them so... their songs are SOOO upbeat and lovely and the instrumentals (albeit usually similar, but similar in a manageable way?) remind me of Wii music!!

7: A song you know every word to?

I do not mess around with ricky montgomery songs, I have listened to Mr loverman religiously since like, 2020, listened to most of Montgomery Ricky, Rick, and Rick(y) RELIGIOUSLY since these albums have come out (Montgomery Ricky as an exception, listened to it a lot around 2020-2021), so I kinda know the all words to... well.. 99% of his songs?? I'm gonna go with a more recent song tho cuz its just... ugh... been on repeat non-stop since he released it

I WAS gonna say Talk to You - Acoustic version cuz that song..................... did things to my brain chemically when I heard it and never stopped listening to it 🥲😞

9: A song in a language you don't speak?

AGGGG if you asked me this like two months ago I would've been able to tell you this one spanish song that was SOO pretty... damn... 😞 Anyways, I have other choices tho :)

This one is KIND of cheating because it's mostly English but it has... Arabic? lyrics I believe? (I hope that's not wrong I'm sorry 😭 Google isn't always accurate) but they're VERY catchy even tho... I don't speak the language 🥲

here's another and better answer, it's Japanese with A COUPLE English lines :)

[not-scared-of-microwaves]

The Tortured Poets Department Album Reaction

Warning: It is 12 am where i am and I function only between the hours of 9 am and 6pm. If you want smart thoughts come back in a week. this is vibes and not much else.

Fortnight [feat. Post Malone]: what. i don't understand. are we back in the fictional era? I'm so lost but the vibes are immaculate.

The Tortured Poets Department: Tea??? Tattooed golden retriever???? Name dropping Jack??? A vibe????

My Boy Only Breaks His Favorite Toys: THE CHORUS OH MY GOD. My favorite so far. A bop but make it sad, as expected.

Down Bad: Okay i take it back this is the best one yet. The verse vocals are like. Airy? and then that chorus and it's so. catchy isn't the right word. A bop but depressing. My brain is melting. First real bridge she's served us. Everything comes out teenage petulance. Fuck it if I can't have him.

So Long London: vocals serving heartbreak. chorus is. an interesting choice. Very interesting song structure. Bridge made me cry.

But Daddy I Love Him: This song is wild tbh. Giving "fuck your conservative values" and I'm here for that. Giving "driving a new Maserati down a dead end street" Has. some clunker lyrics. Aaron I'm begging you to tell her "no" once and a while.

Fresh Out The Slammer: Ok the chorus is eh to me but the verses are giving me LIFE. Idk what it's telling us but I'll think about that later.

Florida!!! [feat Florence and the Machine]: Ok. Not what I was expecting but it's certainly interesting. Chorus isn't really doing it for me but the verses and the bridge?????

Guilty as Sin?: Oh. I get it now. The question mark. The chorus is hitting. Matty Healy anyone?

Who's Afraid Of Little Old Me?: (I'm getting tired if you can't tell) The bridge hits. I'm begging taylor to give us a beat drop. This is a vibe tho. Want to know why she's writing from the perspective of a ghost. Giving reputation.

I Can Fix Him (No Really I Can): What is this. Chorus is a bop but. what is this. Ig they can't all be cruel summer?

I paused here to sleep bc I was getting more "bleh" about each song and I want to give it a real chance rather than just my tired brain's mehness.

loml: I like this, but are we doing fiction again? really? That said, the chorus is kind of addicting. Changed the meaning of loml as she should, and we stan that.

I Can Do It With A Broken Heart: okay this is. a BANGER? Def goes to one of my favs on the album. You go girl, you CAN do it with a broken heart.

The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived: Matty Healy??? scathing. Serving bridge/outro.

The Alchemy: A bop, which is not what I was expecting. Not that I'm complaining.

Clara Bow: A bop but. what is going on? I'm lost.

I'll post one about the extended version later (bc of course she did a double drop, who is surprised? No one.)

[sophiesonlinediary]

thoughts on ttpd (first listen)

fortnight ft. post malone - i was kinda disappointed i thought it would be more ? ig and i wanted post to have a verse but they're voices together are so pretty!!!

ttpd - def not my fav i like the chorus though

my boy only breaks his favorite toys - kinda catchy not my fav tho

down bad - loved this one so muchhhh! CRYING AT THE GYM EVERYTHING COMES OUT TEENAGE PETULANCE AHHH <333 fr one of my favs

so long, london - not what i expected but so sad i loved it like taylor you have done it again another flawless track 5

but daddy i love him - IF U COULD SEE MY FACE WHEN SHE SAID "IM HAVING HIS BABIES" LMAO AND THEN SHE SAYS "NOT REALLY BUT U SHOULD SEE UR FACES" I WAS DYING OF LAUGHTER SHE GOT ME GOOD

fresh out the slammer - very interesting but a whole vibe <333

FLORIDA !!! ft. FLORENCE AND THE MACHINES - AHHHH DUDE DEF MY FAV I BELIEVE ESP SINCE IM FROM FL LIKE YES MAAM AND THEIR VOICES !!!

guilty as sin? - very interesting too i think i need to let it grow but the chorus was good

who's afraid of little old me - i dont know why but i relate sm to this song and the fact she acknowledges that we're very scared of her like taylor alison swift is not a force to be reckoned with

i can fix him (no really i can) - i was honestly laughing the whole time cause i knew this was about matty like maam he cannot be fixed and then she acknowledges at the end 😭 i love it tho

loml - why did i cry?! like i cried idk this song made me so emotional </3 and the end with the switch up to loss of my life. not ok.

i can do it with a broken heart - really liked this one def one of my favs the whole chorus is just so <333 and the whole pre chorus is so ahhh like glitter pen i love it so much words can explain

the smallest man who ever lived - the whole time i could only think "DRAG HIS ASS TAYLOR" men aint shit and by men i mean ratty healy 💋

the alchemy - not for me fs this song is so cheesy and not in a good way like im pretty sure this is about travis but i hated it so much 😭 it felt like an snl parody skit of their relationship like the ai audio that's like "im one game closer to making kelce my last name" or sum like that

clara bow - the way i had to pasue the song by the second vers ebecause my sister didnt know who stevie knicks is the disrespect i thought i raised her better than that but any who i like that song def very personal to her and like im manifesting the pre choruses

its late and its my first listen so ill def reblog tomorrow with updated thoughts!

[berlinini]

You were at Dylan’s show? How was it?

It was a good show - it lasted only 1h10 minutes which felt short. The venue was very nice, good sound and the lights production was really cool. The crowd was good, mostly young women but some couples and some parents (and a random middle-aged guy who came solo who was in front of me).

She was really excited to play and she has a lot of energy on stage. There's only a bassist and a drummer (and her on the guitar sometimes) - so she 's using backing tracks for some of the songs (the band doesn't do back vocals). On the first song it felt like the backing track was over taking her mic and I was like are you kidding? can she not sing?! but it was adjusted later (and maybe she was a bit more stressed on the first song).

She did a brand new song, and like her latest single (The Alibi) it's way more pop. Not guitar-driven at all. It was... different. So it's interesting to see if she's going the pop route (pulling a Harry as I called it!). The Alibi live was really good tho, it's catchy. The rest was pretty rock and banging.

She did a cover of Out of the Woods by TS with just her on the guitar and imo it was awful. Like I think people enjoyed it since they like to OG version but it was just... missing something? Also to me it's really weird to be covering TS when she's touring herself at the moment. The other cover was Unholy - but rock - and at the beginning I was very sceptical but it ended up being really good.

She was quite chatty but sometimes I didn't get what she was saying. In terms of stage presence, she's really good because you couldn't tell she was nervous (I think it was her biggest venue ever). It did feel a bit like a performance at times - and reminded me of Harry's first tour (and the drapping in pride flag + her HS song added to that). But then I'm thinking - it is a performance so maybe I should give her some slack (it's just the whole rock aesthetics/ persona from her IG is annoying me so much).

All in all, very happy I went to see her (even if it took me 90 minutes to go back home cuz apparently I can't take the bus in London lol). I would see her again when she has new material and/or in a bigger venue. This morning I had a song stuck in my head so I listened to her live album again. But in the future I wonder if in the middle of the day I'll be like hey I feel like listening to Dylan? Her songs are quite catchy from the melody but I find the lyrics a bit simple/ not memorable (or too easy).

I went to discover her live and have a good time and I did get that. I also was a bit 'analytical' with the show - and I find myself doing that most of the time now that I know more about touring.

As I posted, it also makes me miss Louis and AM gigs because I realize they are truly one of a kind. Louies are SO loud we never realize when we're at the show, but yeah you don't get that level of screams at other shows.

So if you have the chance to see her in the future, def do it's the tickets are affordable and you wanna have a good rock night out!

I'll be watching her career development!

eternal sunshine review

you already knowwww. another album review.

random thoughts:

so the thing is i didn’t have high hopes for this, bc i hated sweetener and people were saying this was like a part 2. and shitting on positions, my favorite ari album, to compare this one. so i’m like i’m gonna hate this. but i am actually so excited bc i like it. i finally have new music to be obsessed w rather than relistening to the same songs over and over.

also just bc i like the album, don’t mean i’m like a homewrecker stan. she gotta chill.

she should’ve kept the red themed cover like i get the message of the new one but it just doesn’t hit the same.

anyways bc i’m a psycopath, i listened out of order bc that’s the only way i can properly listen idk y.

also i love that there’s no musical features

anyways to the review:

intro(end of the world):

it’s a cute lil intro. my everything vibes. 6/10. probably won’t relisten to this one much. but i love how she’s being so honest on this album bc i’m a nosey ass bitch. love when ppl air out their business. more more!

bye:

modern disco viiibes. upbeat. very dancey. but also lyrically it’s very idk not melancholy but like kind of sadish i like that. 7/10. the song is really not my personal taste but it’s really good still.

don’t wanna break up again:

naur he turned up the tv when he heard her crying throw that man in the trash!!! i like this one. i like the melody and lyrics and the chorus is my favorite part of the song. i wish the production was a little more melodic. it only does it for me during the chorus tbh. but i like this song. 8/10 “but i just can’t refuse” in the chorus sounds like the “im finding ways to stay concentrated on what i gotta do” in die for you by the weeknd.

saturn returns interlude:

idk man some woman talking what do you want me to say. isn’t it weird that this is the only track with capital letters tho?

eternal sunshine:

i really hate trap beats tbh. but ik it’s like ari’s signature now. but ick. it’s a bop tho for sure. but not really my taste. i only really like it bc the lyrics. i just love ppl telling their business y’all i’m not kidding. 7/10

supernatural:

AHHHHHH BITCHCHHHH YESSSS THIS IS WTF i’m TALKIN ABOUT THIS IS POP BITCH YESSS 100000/10 i love the modern 80s pop vibe and the chorus is so perfect w/ the beat. it just rides man i love this song. i’d love this album JUST for this song.

true story:

so 90s love it. very aaliyah beat. i love a good 90s r&b moment so ofc this is an automatic like even if the chorus isn’t that catchy. idk ig i just feel like pop should have catchy melodies and/or an infectious beat. y’know? also she ate w/ the belting at the end. 8/10

the boy is mine:

YASSSSSSS. again we know i love a 90s vibe. the slowdown right before the chorus is insaane. and the choral style harmonies on the “is” of the boy is mine scratches something in my brain as well as the “gotta be a reason why” robotic voice thing. this is so catchy. this is totally a fantasize vibe. so good. 10/10

yes and?:

i dont have it in me to keep defending this song from u vultures. AND i wish she put the mariah carey version on the album too 8/10 and no i will not be explaining myself further y’all are gonna make me cry.

we can’t be friends (wait for your love):

feel i’m getting an 80s vibe again. i like it. i’m loving the upbeat music, sadish vibe lyrics thing going on in this album. i like the vibe of this song a lot. i do wish something in here was more catchy. but i like it. it’s so soft and wistful almost. that’s probably why i’ll relisten. conjure up some interesting maladaptive daydreams w/ this one. 7/10 edit: i watched the video now i like it more. 8/10 lol

i wish i hated you:

it’s very vulnerable. again i’m nosey so i like that. but the song is eh for me. i don’t think this is a song i’d listen to for the music but more for the vibe. 6/10

imperfect for you:

i looooove it. a little weird melodically but i love it. just scratches something in my brain it’s so good. so catchy. 10/10

ordinary things:

it’s good. not one of my favorites but the more i listen, the more i like it. i love the way she pronounces ordinary in here lol. 7/10

okay that’s all really

p.s. i feel like why try from my everything would fit in here idk. this album feels like a perfect combination of all of her others, it’s so weird how that works out. i love it tho. pleasantly surprised!!

[dontsnortpixiestix]

Follow up on last post:

So I’m only gonna go into my favorite songs in View-monster

Marketland: THE BEST ONE I WILL DIE ON THAT HILL. I HAVE A WHOLE ANIMATION IN MIND BUT I HATE ANIMATING

10/10

Gadzooks: sometimes I repeat the word “gadzooks” but it’s alright ig, pretty funny tho

6/10

Knife fight: absolute banger, daydream robot fella shenanigans to this one, VERY FUN AND CATCHY

9/10

The only house that’s not on fire yet: just heard it in full recently, used to skip it, ITS REALLY CUTE AND ODDLY COMFORTING. LOVE IT.

10/10

The ocean: ironically listened to it on a lake gggggg, love the ending part, brings back good memories of my last vacation

9/10

The afternoon: I SING THIS A LOT “Ohohoh all the less you hold out, more and more well fold out, more and more you grow up, less and less we show up”

Very nostalgic and a comfort song, very silly, only issue is I can’t find a theme or cohesive bit at all

8/10

Bill Watterson: THIS SONG. THIS IS IT. Made my 2020 so much better, made 2021 even better, found again and got back to it. This song makes me so incredibly happy , also Calvin and Hobbs let’s fuckin gooooo

100/10

Modify: I don’t listen to it much but it’s good! I like the instrumental better than the lyrics but yeeee, also don’t really follow their work but that one aimkid animation is quite fun to zone out to

7/10

Andddd fuck I’ll just do more I’m tired

[the-halcyon-effect]

copying you

cure: nothing new to say here. it's my least favorite of the singles (not to say it's bad, i just like the other 3), but it's one of the songs i'm most excited to see live because of the chorus and breakdown callout

rumor of light: HOLY SHIT JESSE'S VOICE IS SO GOOD THIS CHORUS IS FUCKING AMAZING this is already better than all the singles

ok yeah this track is just jesse flexing. and frankly i am all for it

idle wild: VERY chunky verse. incredible. also more jesse having the best cleans

not as good as the last one but this is still amazing. hopefully there's a breakdown

update: no breakdown but i still really like this one

blue reverie: once again, it was a single so nothing new. it's a great emotional song and i am a huge fan of that verse

slow sour bleed: this one has a music video (i haven't seen it yet) so i have high hopes

ok we got a synth intro this better be heavy. and yup it's heavy

ok never mind what is THIS‽‽ (affectionate)

i guess we have jesse in the verse and jt in the chorus? oh how the turntables

this kinda reminds me of the new silent planet album but obviously more like erra did it (because they did). absolutely LOVE the electronic synthy verse

okay what the FUCK is this bridge? oh it's a breakdown now

hmmm. okay. idk if this beats rumor of light for my fav song so far but it's at least a close second

wish: ghost atlas has entered the chat. it's just an intermission but it's good ig

glimpse: ah, the classic intermission-is-just-the-riff-from-the-next-song-but-acoustic. not a problem at all, it's an amazing riff

oooh i like the little dooododoododoo the guitar does

and the silent planet comparisons return for that chorus, not as good as the other ones but it's good for this song

OOOH TASTY BREAKDOWN VERY GOOD :D i like this one a lot more now

and the fade-out layered outro. that was a good one

oh? never mind? more guitar? ok i'm down

past life persona: FANTASTIC opening riff. this one's gonna be catchy

ok this is just a slightly heavier ghost atlas track. i am 200% down for this

jesse cash you are a beautiful beautiful man

somehow this is more emotional than blue reverie. might be my new favorite

hmm. would have preferred more from the bridge but that last chorus still hits HARD. if the bridge was a little better this could beat rumor of light and slow sour bleed but currently it's gonna settle for third

crawl backwards out of heaven: single! good song, very vibey and headbangable. gonna be good live for sure

end to excess: another kinda emotional one! interesting! this is really cool tho, BIG fan of the drums in the prechorus

okay the second verse is a little heavier

i could see this one having a breakdown or not having a breakdown. we'll see. although it seems the second chorus is extended so maybe not

NEVER MIND I HAVE BEEN BAMBOOZLED

OH JT IS GOING LOW NOW HOLD UP

very good breakdown. best (breakdown, not song) so far on the album.

pale iris: single, but still good! this was the song that got me into erra, and i think it served that purpose well. it's a standard high-energy erra song and sounds a lot like something off the self-titled album, and i'm a big fan. best of the singles imo

wave: before i hear this one i'm gonna predict this is going to be super emotional with a heavy ass breakdown at the end. ik it's kinda a shot in the dark BUT A GIRL CAN DREAM OK

i was wrong. oh well. let's see what happens

kinda proggy? dang this is different

oh that is a GOOD prechorus

and also a good chorus. LOVE the vocal layers

ok it looks like the top 3 (rumor of light, slow sour bleed, past life persona) are gonna stay. this is probably 5th, i think pale iris gets 4th. i'm gonna need time for the full ranking

that was amazing. gonna go listen to the alphawolf album now

cure album liveblog (aka me devolving into insanity) unedited no grammar corrections this is between me and my phone keyboard

all I'm gonna say is that the singles do not do this album justice

cure: it's a precursor to what's to come I'm already so familier with it. first time I've got both earbuds in though 🥴. it's an expeeince

rumour of light: SHES PRETTY AND HEAVY holy shit the opening instrumental I was gonna cry, the vocalsssssss! the scream melody is so good, jesse's singing is something else (he's singing lower I might be able to actually hit his notes for once) GUITAR SOLO!!! its so melodic and pretty the vocal layering in the chorus is everything to me

idlw wind: quiet straight into heavy djenty, dark ambience, pretty yet heavy chorus, guitars are tight as fuck, chorus vocal melody is so good hes got a little bit of scream in there too, the bridge instrumental part is so !!! HANG ON IS JESSE SCRWMING THERE OR IS JT DOING SOMETJING DIFFERENT I DONT KNOE. outro part of chorus is so !!

blue reverie: fits so well in the grand scheme of the album? it's the slow respite from three quick heavy songs

slow sour bleed: industrial! production heavy intro! reminds me of psalm of sedition? it's gone quiet? very djent. ambience!! heavy/light whiplash. ELECTRONIC? erra typical structure fuck. OH BREAKDOWN THESE CALLOUTS ARE AMAZING. oh she's very heavy

wish: opening guitar haunts me. she's light and building. and an interlude

glimpse: OH! SHE CONTINUES DISTORTED. jesse is going at it with vocal work holy shit! JT CLEAN YELLINH! the guitars here I adore. THE VREAKDOWN HAS BEOKEN MY CEILING. jesse's voice from this chorus specifically is gonna haunt my dreams

past life persona: intro guitar is so pretty. dust of the human shape esque opening verse. very ghost atlas, a bit radio rock (metal)? sounds seaside in summer, type of song you'd introduce to your grandma. backing screams on point. breakdown flows very well it's explosive but doesn't break the stream of the song. is jt singing here?

crawl backwards out of heaven: jt song right after a jesse song, foreboding heavy. verse two is still groovy as fuck. bridge is still haunting as fuck

end to excess: clean glittery guitars, i want this intro to last forever. and now he's screaming. oh that verse lead! blast beats! oh that chorus feels movie-hopeful! I love it! the guitar leads in the second part of the chorus! BREAKDOWN! it's so different wow

pale iris: some good old fashioned metalcore. the verse leads at the start of the verse fit the leads sprinkled throughout the rest of the album. it's weird, it's the first single from the album but appears second last, and now I'm hearing it as part of the picture it sounds so much more coherent.

wave: ?? energetic guitars? reminds me of hyperreality? I love this song I don't know what's going on. some of the vocal parts remind me of a savage hands song. oh that bridge is powerful. I don't want this to end.

it can't be over

please tell me it's not over

that might be the best album I've ever heard.

[pips-fics]

reading some of my survey responses and FELLOW MYDAYS UNITE i shouldn’t be surprised my readers have excellent musical taste 🥰🥰🥰

whoever recommended their entire discography.... yes i felt that 

[uravichii]

bnha characters as swifties ~

— you convert them into swifties and there's no going back

characters: bakugo katsuki, todoroki shouto, yaoyorozu momo, jirou kyouka

warnings: swearing (bakugo's part)

notes: i don't know what came over me when i decided to write this,, happy 1 year of folklore ig ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ

- bakugo katsuki -

katsuki would only know the name 'taylor swift'

he knows she's some famous celebrity, but he has no idea what she's known for : /

when you first introduce him to her discography, you started with her debut album and 'fearless.'

he didn't like it :') he said it was way too cheesy

katsuki also criticized how inaccurate love story was because romeo and juliet didn't end that way : |

he also despised the "shitty country music" pls never play 'our song' when he's nearby, he'll absolutely destroy whatever it is you're playing it from.

you then introduced him to the most successful album, 1989, hoping he'd at least give it a chance

no, he thought it was "hella annoying" 🙄

"YOU'RE TELLING ME 'ALL YOU HAD TO DO WAS STAY' AND 'I WISH YOU WOULD' AREN'T THE SAME FUCKING SONG? FUCK OFF."

but you persevere— you introduced more tracks, explained the lyrics to him, and you forced him to watch the reputation stadium tour on netflix.

he won't admit it openly, but he LOVES reputation.

he loves the new sound, the darker theme, and how edgy and angry it is.

his favorite songs are 'i did something bad' and 'don't blame me'

but he also secretly falls asleep to 'new year's day' 🥺

folklore enraged him in a good way,,

"FUCK JAMES, AUGUSTINE DESERVES BETTER."

and for the album red, "FUCK JAKE GYLLENHAAL, TAYLOR DESERVED BETTER."

this man will make a stan twitter account and demand a punk rock era from tswift because katsuki knows the queen is ✨versatile✨ and she can definitely thrive with a new sound like that 😌

- todoroki shouto -

"taylor swift??? what year and class is she in?"

"shouto— "

you need to present this boy a whole powerpoint presentation,, he badly needs it.

at first, he wouldn't mind the lyrics, he pays more attention to how it sounds.

he likes the mellow ones like 'begin again' 'untouchable' and most tracks from both sister albums, 'folklore' and 'evermore'

for some reason, he loved taylor's country music. those were actually the first songs he added to his playlist.

"it's a bop." he says this with a straight face and a monotonous voice 😐

then, you urged him to read and take in the lyrics, and shouto LOVED her as an artist a lot more.

he definitely cried to 'never grow up' :(((( he can't listen to it again though because he's afraid the song will lose its meaning if it was played too much.

he also appreciates 'seven' a lot. 'tolerate it' and 'soon you'll get better' reminded him of his mother :((

also, he always plays 'mad woman' when endeavor's nearby 💀

he turns up the volume when taylor sings, "does she smile... or does she mouth "fuck you forever. ~ "

he'd definitely buy a lot of merch from taylor, and he was very dismayed when the cardigans sold out before he got to buy one :(

he is very excited for red (taylor's version) and even marked november 19th on his calendar >:)

- yaoyorozu momo -

momo listened to taylor swift a lot when she was younger. she loved singing along to the album, 'fearless'

but she eventually phased out from her songs, not for any particular reason though.

she knows the famous singles like 'shake it off' and 'blank space' and she's mostly neutral about it.

so you force her back into the fandom by having her listen to her whole discography >:)

momo LOVES 'folklore' and 'evermore' this woman will break down the lyrics, analyze it, and upload long-ass essays about them.

"the lyrics are just absolutely exquisite! it's amazing how she manages to use a different sound each album and pull it of :)) you have my deepest gratitude, y/n for having me listen to such a beautiful masterpiece!"

she'll never stop gushing over the jamez-betty-augustine drama. she'll definitely be empathetic towards each one, but she does love augustine the most 😔

she understands james too though and loves 'this is me trying' :') she's not sure if she likes the song 'betty' tho 😧

you'd get under a blanket with momo and cry to 'champagne problems' and 'tolerate it' for fun.

"such a heartbreaking story..." she sniffles into a napkin.

momo was also inspired to write poems because of the two sister albums.

i don't think she'd be interested in taylor's dating life, but she does think it's amazing how you're able to witness the artist's growth by just listening to the songs she writes over the years :))

- jirou kyouka -

"of course i know taylor swift..." she looks to the side sheepishly. "i don't really like her."

"😦"

kyouka unfortunately thinks taylor swift is overrated </3

you can't really blame her though because apparently, she only knew her singles 😃 specifically, 'we are never going back together,' 'blank space, 'shake it off,' and 'ME!'

she says they're catchy but she doesn't really understand the hype.

so you make her understand >:)

you start with lover which later became her favorite album along with reputation and red.

she looves 'cruel summer' and she's angry that it wasn't a single in the album, she also loves the song, 'lover' she won't admit it but she thinks it's incredibly sweet and it makes her want to have a lovelife like taylor's.

she also loves 'the man' and she also sings the bridge of 'death by a thousand cuts' EVERYDAY.

kyouka will also make her own covers of taylor's older songs,, she'll make a cover of 'sparks fly' that sounds edgier. it sounds amazing 😌

she'll lie on her bed, and probably cry to 'superstar' thinking how sweet it would be if someone wrote a song about her like that :((

folklore and evermore aren't her favorites, but she adores the writing so much that it influenced hers.

kyouka will write a song for you out of gratitude for making her listen to the queen, miss swift 😌

28 Reasons - EP review

Reviewing 28 Reasons the title track:

Music production analysis:

Exactly what I thought we would be expecting, this song is perfect for Seulgi. The lyrics also perfectly seeds into the darkness of a human being. Although, my belief is different to what the video was about, it was a video in which it was answering one of the biggest questions in the philosophical world, this song was trying to just prove an explanation to it. Giving weird examples of "I kiss your brother, I steal that heart, you can't even feel the poison" shows that I may have been the perpetrator for kissing him, but deep inside him he has a heart in which is willing to give to evil because he can't feel it, he might be evil, and trying to not become tempted towards evil. Another part is the bridge, where it says "You're in danger, but it's okay, you're grown up", how we are growing up and only then we might realise if we are truly pure evil or pure goodness. The lyrics was a beautiful argument, going from the pov of evil to the pov of good. The instrumental, the whistle that was added made the song 20000x better, the bridge made me realise how much this instrumental sounds like something out of a movie and with that I am going to move on the the music video production.

Music video production:

I mean I didn't expect anything less, the music video was so beautiful to look at, it was almost like watching a movie, the two different people of Seulgi, itself makes it so much better. It's such a beautifully put music video. The angles were beautiful, the settings that Seulgi was put in, was really good, the wider perspective in the beginning, with the white, probably shows the good and how she is much lost in a wide grassland, it shows how small the goodness we have is compared to this world, how, the bad stares at the good, possibly leading to her death as she was levitating later on in the video, it was brilliantly made. To fit the music, the lyrics, it made it overall really easy to understand what was going on, I'm really grateful to the production team that made this debut even more excellent, I have no words except fantastic!

The rest of the EP review:

Dead Man Runnin':

Interesting production, I do have to say my favourite part is the bridge, it's godly. The chorus on where she keeps the note for longer, the bridge again, where there is a normal, quiet bridge and then repeats it again but with a more upbeat instrumental is just perfection. This song is truly really good, but not something I will listen to, if you like a song that is dark and that gradually gets louder I would recommend this.

Bad Boy, Sad Girl (ft. BE'O)

How do I explain my love for this song, I love it so much. It's so good. It's simple but cute to listen to every now and then. It's a lovesick song, but with feelings of anger yet is put in a such a calm, beautiful manner in which makes me vibe in my own bedroom, I cannot explain my love for this song, because it's too good. The chorus is so addicting and catchy to listen to. These days I have just been randomly saying to myself "eme hageganun bad boy bad boy bad boy gwe nisen chi hejonan sad girl sad girl sad girl, onel bam dom up alone" it's so good. Favourite from the album.

Anywhere But Home:

Yet another bop. This fits Seulgi's voice so well, probably the best out of any song here. The chorus is so cute and catchy, a simple yet beautiful song, I might listen to this while I'm going to get the train or something, again a song of love but it's a matter of is this serious love instead of hopeless love that we see in Bad Boy Sad Girl. Really good tho. I would recommend this to people that like Red Velvet b-sides ig, or jus something sweet to listen to, it sounds almost magical, this love in this song.

Los Angeles:

It sounds like a really good DJ remix, ngl. I'm not saying tha just because of the chorus, the whole song just sounds like it, with the background noises, even during the bloody bridge. So, if you like DJ remix songs like Alan Walker songs or David Guetta or Sophie Francis songs, I guess this song might be partially to you liking, it's just a has a bit of a darker concept.

Crown:

It's not an extraordinary song, it's a pretty decent song, but it's the perfect song to end the experience of the album. It really made me think and realise that I have to take all of this album in, and that's only when I realised how good and perfectly this album was made. It was beautiful for a debut. And I only wish Seulgi to go forward from here as a solo artist, this concept also really suits her and I hope she continues with it.

Overall: 10/10

Ranking of EP album's songs:

1) Bad Boy, Sad Girl (ft. BE'O)

fancy seeing u here pls do purki, ateez and cix for the music thing xoxo

[ if i’m familiar ] purple kiss

favorite member if I have one: swan by osmosis through you (and she can sing, ofc!!!!) and chaein always catches my eye.

favorite song(s): haven't listened much to them except what you've sent me, so i will go on youtube and pick something that i haven't listened to yet! zombie and nerdy are both bops. ponzona is SUPER SUPER good for a debut song.

why I don’t stan (yet) / if I want to: i always have a hard time getting into ggs for some reason, but i love all their concepts soooo much. like, they really give something we desperately need in the industry rn which is fun and a cohesive narrative and LOOKS.

question for veteran fans: ig you can be a veteran fan even of a rookie group... anyways, what do you wanna see from them the most? genre/performance/styling wise.

[ if i stan ] ateez

favorite member / bias line: jongho is my ult, wooyoung is my bias. they are my bias line (but you know that).

which member I’d fight (& why): wooyoung. ♡

favorite song(s): utopia, eternal sunshine, inception, deja vu, still here acoustic, desire, say my name, twilight, take me home, the real, wonderland (both versions), cyberpunk, hala hala, fireworks, rocky jpn, the king, dancing like butterfly wings.

favorite thing about the group: their music and quality of performance. the fact that they are so genuine and lovable and monster performers, and it does not compute in my brain how we even deserve them. i think they are kpop's greatest hope. jongho's vocals. they make me laugh and they make me so happy, and sometimes i could cry because they love each other so much. and they obviously have one of the coolest concepts industry wide.

something i’d like to see from them: i want them to do a rock concept. like. a proper rock ep and not just a japanese title track. don't be shy.

[ if i’m unfamiliar ] cix

I’ll listen to their top song on Spotify & tell you my thoughts: just watched the jungle mv cause it was the first one youtube told me to look at ... kind of a serve, no??? that topline is sooo catchy. and someone in this group is great at riffing and doing adlibs! ooh la la! singer number 2 (checked and he is seunghun apparently. GREAT singer) has a certain something, a je ne sais quoi ... he is simply giving us drama! j'adore! i think that rap was not needed and hyunsuk doesn't have to rap either, tho (he is a good singer!). this is what txt wishes they would sound like! the logo is a little too exo for me but imitation is the greatest form of flattery, as they say.

I’ll look up photos & tell you who stands out to me: i think seunghun? i can't look at pictures cause of my face blindness, but he struck me first. oh and he is the hot red haired guy, too!

I’ll tell you if I’d look into them more: very promising if they have more songs like jungle!

Mask Analysis from my Music Friend

(all actual quotes from him) (his additional opinions included)

“ok. well. it's really fucking good. obviously.

“the improvement from roadtrip is immense.

“of course, from the instrumental stand point and the lyrics obviously, but also with dream himself. his singing has improved. a lot.

“certain points at the beginning of the song. that's because of the timbre, the character or quality of a musical note.

“and damn did he use it correctly.

“his voice is so lovely. i love it so much.

“musically, i'm conflicted. because it's pop music. pop music is supposed to be basic and be catchy. this is exactly what it is.

“he sings four notes. that's it. it's c#, d#, e# and g#. and it sounds so amazing. also i cannot forgive this mans for making it in c# major WHO DOES THAT. NO ONE. LITERALLY NO ONE.

“the chords are pretty cool tho.

“(another musical fact: the tempo is 118.)

“it's a song i can scream??? if that makes sense??? i could see myself pacing around my room singing this for hours. which is true. i did that. i saw myself. in a mirror.

“the lyrics are amazing? finding words is always so hard to do and the image he illustrated was beautiful? "i've been wearing a smile for so long it's real" is currently my favorite. how he took his character and used it into the context of his life is just an amazing thought.

“like obviously, he didn't originally intend for his tiny blob thing to be a mask. but it is. and his smile is too. the song just has so much meaning and contrary to roadtrip, it's less specific to a situation, but more of a feeling that can be related to by apparently everyone.

“THE PROJECTION IVE BEEN DOING IS INSANE. PLEASE HELP ME. I'VE BEEN CRYING FOR HOURS.

“the guitar. oh my god the guitar. especially the intro.

“the difference between the verses and the chorus. the build up, man. the pre-chorus of "that's what the mask is" is getting to me.

“drums, man. it resonates in my soul at this point.

“the falsetto singing. pls during the first pre-chorus.

“as well as the harmony at 0:23. thats fucking hard to do. i love it so much.

“the exhales. in his singing. dream, please- when you put breaths and sound exasperated, it puts so much emotion into the singing and it just makes it so much better.

“also mans put one curse word in here. there wasn't a reason for it but i stand by this decision and it was very important that he just said "bitch" in his song.

“ok i'm done ig

“:) that was fun”
