How the FUCK is this not considered a modern masterpiece? This is probably one of the greatest albums of the 2010s. Such an insane 180 by the band.

>>128322013It puts on a conceptual play but a lot of what he sings in this alternate reality is pretty spot on in a post modern world but I'm sure not everyone will pick up on a lot of the connotations
>>128321890Filtered too many plebs
>>128321890Were you here in 2018?
>>128322082Yes I’ve been on /mu/ since 2014. This album would get a daily thread where people just blurted out meme lyrics but other than that, no serious discussion about the album.
