"MY THIRD ALBUM “SMILE! :D” is coming out JULY 26th!!

 

the album that I was TRYING to write was this nonstop party — NO sincerity, ALL fun, an album that revels in absurdity for a world that rejects context. And that was the plan until I accidentally started confessing how I was really feeling, and … you’ll hear the rest.

 

my most fun, and maybe my most heartbreaking album

 

i think it’s my most interesting work and I’m dying for you to hear it ON JULY 26thhhh"

 

 

(new single "KNOCK YOURSELF OUT XD" is out tomorrow... 👀)

that synth hook *.* maybe possibly a deliberate nod to The Pillows' Thank You, My Twilight

 

also dropping a song with the line "bitch I'm Taylor Swift" on the same week as her album release is madman shit

 

he’s announced a world tour now as well - coming to the UK in March next year , seems tempting

 

supported by Underscores in Europe so that’s double the excitement for SevenSeize I guess

'Russian Roulette' out now

 

certainly an improvement from 'Knock Yourself Out' and yay for a longer song now!

 

seems to be a natural successor to 'Sad Machine' too

Well, the album's out now. Unforch not a fan this time.

 

 

80/100 from The Line of Best Fit, The Skinny, and Rolling Stone; 71 from Pitchfork; and 70 from The Independent. Also already surpassing BRAT in AOTY User Score chart with 85.

Hmmm Cheerleader was amazing...

 

Knock Yourself Out was ok - but alot of the others are just a bit meh.

 

Its a shame they couldn't all have a bit more life like Cheerleader did, you can see why it was the lead song

ok i've had about a week to digest album so just gonna spill some thoughts;

 

that transition into the chorus on Mona Lisa UNFFFF-! absolute banger, I also love that punk-y energy on that last verse that bears quite a melodic resemblance to Boom Clap lmao

 

Is There Really No Happiness is pure audio heaven, Easier To Love You is a gorgeous track too, the way the Nurture vocals were incorporated into that one <3

 

using that Lil Wayne speech on Year of the Cup?? *_*

 

(also i didn't comment on it at the time but Russian Roulette is still insane, no doubt a top tier porter track)

 

the record is pretty much what i hoped for - an emotional ride with upfront, soul-baring lyrics with still plenty of fun moments and vibrant production throughout <3 it's great seeing Porter continue to move forward musically on this, keeping his signature charm without rehashing his past glories
