Summersault 824 Posted November 27, 2016 Starboy is the best album since Trilogy imo A little long but individually all the tracks are amazing and I love that his embracing a new electro sound while still making bangers Nothing Without You is the only track that I plain dislike Oh and Stargirl Interlude >>>>>>>>>>>> Prisoner Now I wanna hear a whole album of Lana with Doc McKinney as main producer even more, I had a suspicion they would work well together 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KillForLove 13,361 Posted November 29, 2016 After three listens I'm super disappointed with it as a whole. All the Max Martin songs sound exactly the same and are super boring. He needs to drop this whole synth-pop act, I get that it's getting him his coins and all but the music is just really generic and lacking. The album isn't bad, but its just super transparent that half the album is just cheap shots at hoping to get a radio hit. Even the majority of the Doc McKinney tracks are really uninteresting. After listening to it several times sober and high, the only tracks I would ever come back to are Part Monster, Sidewalks, and Die for You. He really needs to get back with Illangelo because at least with BBTM he had The Hills, Tell Your Friends, Acquainted, As You Are, and Prisoner which kind of balanced out the more commercial attempts on the album. And he can't really use the excuse that the Max Martin tracks are what make him money because The Hills was not radio friendly at all and still went #1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

delreyfreak 5,342 Posted November 30, 2016 the album as a whole drags on and half the songs sound exactly the same. The only songs that have really got my attention so far are Party Monster, Starboy, Stargirl Interlude, False Alarm, Sidewalks and I Feel It Coming. The rest are pretty mediocre in my view... might grow on me though 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Summersault 824 Posted November 30, 2016 The whole discussion about Abel going pop is very interesting, and I'm involved in it on another forum as well. I think a lot of old fans (including myself) had a hard time accepting that Abel wanted to go mainstream. We cried for Illangelo to come back, then when he didn't restore Trilogy Abel, we cried for Doc McKinney to come back, but he couldn't do it either. Now I've seen people in all seriousness ask for Jeremy Rose Abel is interested in making pop/mainstream music, so he's gonna do that regardless of the producers he work with. After I accepted that, it was a lot easier for me to appreciate Starboy for what it is: A very good, well produced mainstream record. Sure it's too long and some of the fillers could go, but the tracks are really good individually. I hope The Weeknd one day returns to a more experimental/indie approach, but until then I'm not gonna deprive myself if some quality pop music ☺ 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bummersummer 2,218 Posted November 30, 2016 True Colors A Lonely Night Ordinary Life Nothing Without You All I Know Die For You All garbage and should have been cut the album is okay but sounds way too samey to me, more than half the songs are forgettable even after repeated listens. House of Balloons days are truly dead and gone... my fave songs are Six Feet Under, False Alarm, Ordinary Life, Starboy & obv Stargirl. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Adrift 4,813 Posted December 1, 2016 So uh, either these are really good covers or this YouTube channel has uploaded a few Starboy demos? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KWpeJXyyDvQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cSpqBuG2MEA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wZVicHCzGn8 It's pretty clearly not actually Abel singing, but whether these are incredible covers or demos that he ended up using for the album is a little blurry, I'm not that familiar with him 0 Quote X----into me, into you----X Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drewby 9,246 Posted December 1, 2016 That version of I Feel It Coming sounds nothing like him, but False Alarm did so...idk 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Summersault 824 Posted December 2, 2016 I never got to hear them, they're already gone... Which make me suspicious that it could actually be demos. Back when the real studio instrumentals from Trilogy, Kissland and BTTM leaked, they appeared and dissappeared from youtube a couple of times. I see a pattern 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
