Here’s yet another review of the melanie album from some rando who’s been using lanaboards specifically for Mel & never made an account.
My overall rating is a 3/10. Really am disappointed with an album of hers yet again. I’m one of those people who is still holding on crybaby, and I get it’s her “death”, but her entire crybaby concept was genius & what I fell in love with. I listened to a lot of the unreleased from mm3/portals and was hoping maybe she would finally come out with good music. My favorites from the unreleased were tunnel vision, sirens, death (unreleased version), emerald, and faerie soiree. Love the unreleased versions of tunnel vision/ faerie soirée better than the released. Also noticed she added intros and outros to each song. I was expecting so much more from this album, and yet again she keeps her best songs unreleased. I do have one positive to say: I love the ending to nymphology, have had it on repeat and love the styling and how she sings. A lot of y’all probably don’t agree with me and that’s totally okay! Just wanted to voice my opinion as someone who’s been listening since 2014. Will forever miss her crybaby days…her art, the fans, and the whole era I hold dear to my heart. Not saying that because I don’t think it’s her best or my favorite that her concept isnt good, because it is! Just seems super repetitive at this point and seems like with crybaby she put a lot more thought into it. Anyways that’s all I want to say, so sad sirens did not make it on the album, that’s my #1 of all time (was previously night mime, but sirens took it out of the park). Okay I’ll stop this here, feel free to reply or voice your opinions, just wanted to put this out there after listening to to full thing. ((:
