nothing compares mixing is terrible, but it's understandable as it was mixed in mere days and remotely

yeah so its the same thing

Im guessing you would prefer his voice be drowned out by over the top production with heavy synths and s*** right lol. The layering on this record is beautiful as is.

how?

They were both inspired by Scorsese, that doesn't mean Weeknd was necessarily inspired by joker

So the weeknd was unoriginal in his efforts regardless right? Am I incorrect? no.

inspired does not equal unoriginal

all great art usually takes inspiration from previous art

where the f*** did i say that? and the f*** man, his voice is extremely drowned in the production on Nothing Compares but i get it, because there is a pandemic and also the guy who mixed it has never mixed for Abel before

Couldn't imagine being a big enough nerd to dislike this album in any way

I mean you have a point but he didnt do the casino/joker rip any justice imho.

I don't think your audio levels are correct man. He sounds perfect. Hardly any vocal effects on his voice too, I wish his voice sat at that level on a song like Alone Again

In what way?

His new videos are some of the best visuals out rn imo. Also the fact that they are all kind of a connected narrative is really dope to me.

1. alone again is supposed to sound like that
2 actually i was wrong, i just listened to Nothing Compares on Tidal and s*** sounds actually amazing. something's off on my spotify

Apparently he has more videos on the way? So I guess I'll hold my judgement till the end of this creative rollout.

I guess Alone Again is fine, the vocal effects make it work. But the album is just way too production heavy for me. That's why I appreciated BBTM more than some of my friends, even though it's pop - his voice stands out on most tracks. Like COMN was a standout from MDM and is one of his best tracks ever.

This s*** got me sobbing now I’m a wreck

I think the production fits this album & I'm happy with it but I do hope his next project brings out his voice more like bbtm & other projects.

I would LOVE if this album was just a pit stop to another one early next year or even fall of this year. Theres no way he can leave us with this for another few years right?

albums like BBTM and Trilogy are my fave because they gave his voice lots of room to do the work. Songs like Wicked Games, High for this, Angel, TYF, ICFMF, etc

This is the most hes brought his voice out since Kiss Land? What???

i just meant I want more high notes n tracks like angel, as you are etc

scared to live out now, blinding lights out now, after hours out now, UIBO out now,

more

Wrong.

also he sings very high on adlibs, if you payed attention, you would hear it

Bonus tracks some heat

oh and also In your eyes outro
