I see Brad's confusion, Jack Stauber's primary releases aren't necessarily meant to be experimental, they're essentially just Jack's interpretation of fairly traditional pop music. For more experimental ideas and execution he usually reserves that for Micropop singles and videos
He's a hypnagogic pop artist, that term sums his music up pretty well. Experimental but also very catchy bedroom pop
Viator was kinda experimental tbh
his execution of these styles is for sure avant-garde, though. i have yet to listen to any self-styled "pop" music that sounds anything like pop food or hilo
Not rlly, Hi-Lo which his other biggest main album is very genre blending.
@@VideoEssayWatcher5484 definitely genre blending, but I don't think it's anything too weird for the average listener like most Micropop releases tend to be
I was listening to this album literally like two days ago and thought "Brad would probably hate this, I wouldn't want to waste money to show him something he's gonna hate." So he saved me money and proved me wrong
thats a W W for you lmao
How can you pay him do lisen to something?
@@siemvantveld7545 gotta watch his biweekly paid reaction streams, every Tuesday and Saturday
Jack Stauber is actually a phenomenal pop musician; unfortunately the world only knows Buttercup and probably thinks he just does lame bedroom indie crap, while he actually excels in very complex vignettes. Micropop is crazy good.
Bedroom Indie is great to
Yeah I was gonna say bedroom indie can be great
I hate that people don’t know more of his music. I get it it’s kinda weird to others but it’s just his style. I love Cupid, deadweight, two times, buttercup(I’m so glad I didn’t know this song from tiktok), Hamantha, something is happening and Mirror man.
yay getting shamed for liking bedroom indie this is so fun aren’t you having fun
@@noctuabird it's okay bro it's his L that he can't appreciate Jack's art
Jack Stauber’s career is sorta partitioned into two segments.
On one hand he has his music under the name “Jack Stauber.” This synth-y music with his vocal inflection. The tone of this is generally serious.
On the other hand, Jack Stauber is an animator that does work for Adult Swim. He mostly does horror-adjacent stuff. His animations are lauded for being experimental and very stylized. He also makes music for his animations under the name “Jack Stauber’s Micropop” These are more comedic in nature and a bit stylistically different.
I personally am more of a fan of his animation work.
OPAL is my favorite thing Jack has ever done honestly
@@jacobm6617 Opal.was legitimately terrifying at times. It was a great short
I love nearly all of his micropop songs, and his two adult swim shorts are wonderful
@@jacobm6617 I honestly think Pop Opera is also a lowkey masterpiece, hard to compare to Opal bc it's going for something COMPLETELY different, they're both fantastic tho
i like some of his music, but i appreciate his visual art more, personally.
ive noticed youve been using a lot more actual music terminology. though it was always funny hearing you explain your thoughts with comparisons and sound effects, its cool to see you growing like that.
"acualy it is called a high hats🤓" 🤓
Pitchfork arc
Using the funny words!
The best genre of brad videos are ones where he is pleasantly surprised by how much he likes something
Yes it’s such a tranquility
His album after this, HiLo, goes for a less electronic sound, and has a weirder, more upbeat tone. There's one track that noticeably changes its sound 7 times in its 4 minute run time.
Also, regarding the lyrics, Jack has stated that they make complete sense to him, and he wouldn't sing them if they didn't.
less electronic? i'd have to disagree, seems like hilo has a lot more distorted synth sounds and casio presets than pop food
@@DJDipstick I'm not really sure what I meant by less electronic either. I just saw a comment on the album saying that it's less electronic, and just agreed.
Maybe that comment meant "more real life instruments being played"?
After a year of commenting this, this comment was not a good way of describing HiLo. I'll redo it now.
His follow-up album, HiLo, adds to the sound that Pop Food provided, adding elements of funk, jazz and rock, while also using noise in a very effective way on tracks like It's Alright. Quite a few more switch-ups, but never anything that I think doesn't work (this is coming from a huge Jack Stauber fan.) Definitely worth checking out! (it's been a year since this video, hes probably heard it off camera by now)
@@pizzarellaytHiLo is mostly "haha funny distortions sounds go brrr" and that's why I love it
@@pandasylver gotta love some silly noise
Up-and-coming isn’t the words I’d use for Jack Stauber. He’s been established for a while or maybe it’s a question of perspective. I don’t necessarily like or dislike his music but it really fits his writing/directing on his animations on Adult Swim.
I think Jack Stauber also being an animator on TH-cam as well as him self-releasing everything both prevent his music from receiving much critical attention, even though he's huge online
I also highly recommend checking out his side project Jack Stauber's Micropop. It goes hard in the WEIRD direction, but the musical texture, which seems to be one of the things you enjoyed most in this album, comes out in full force there. It's not in albums except for the compilation "Micropop" but that's like 60 songs, instead he releases one or two singles at once in little packs.
Actually the Micropop album is 99 tracks that Jack released while he was in the hospital after his car crash. Most of them scrapped snippets. I kinda doubt Brad would enjoy that project as much though considering that each track is like 30 second ideas rather than full songs.
The extended singles could be worth a video though. Those songs have a lot to analyze and get invested in. They are quite enjoyable.
For the soundtrack releases (SHOP & OPAL), those are soundtracks y'know?
@@JoshucaVA agreed on all counts yeah
I’m a young mexican trying to make it out the hood by smoking weed on my TH-cam channel lol
@@JoshucaVA Car crash? I’ve been in the Jack Stauber community for a few years and I’ve never heard about a car crash. I helped make the iceberg and I’ve seen tons of lost media of his and I haven’t heard anything bout a car crash, can you tell me more? I’m really intrigued
@Brandon Gray I’ve been a patreon for years. He was doing a stunt and broke a bone. That’s why he was using his left(?) hand to make stuff for a while.
I genuinely don’t think Jack Stauber is trying to be goofy and comedic he just consistently expresses himself in an very unhinged way at least to normal peoples eyes and ears.
Brad seem to have a big problem in tying to suppose the artist's intention in the beginning of this one. For me this album is just supposed to be chill and fun, not too out there or experimental, and it accomplishes that. If you set out the wrong expectations/misunderstand what the artist's trying to do, you may end up not enjoying a lot of stuff.
It's really the fans recommending this album who set the wrong expectation for Brad.
Yeah his lofi weirdness can take a bit to get used to, once you get past that tho he has some incredibly fun stuff

Nice pfp heh
@@lilnaze7218 thanks
oh klahoma tha best
i honestly expected you to hate this album, but i am so glad you enjoyed it. jacks stuff has really helped me through a lot, i’ve been listening to him for around 2-3 years (his replay value is INSANE), but i really recommend listening to hilo, it’s his best album, and maybe venture into his micropop stuff too! super glad jack is getting attention and i hope he releases a new project this year.
Jack Stauber's music helped me through some tough times as well. Amazingly fond of the replay value it has, like you mention in your comment. I've sometimes had his music on repeat for hours while out on aimless walks.
I’m also a fan! :D cool to see we have the same experience. I discovered him when HiLo released and I’ve been listening since. Jack has got me through a lot over the almost 4 years I’ve been listening to him. Can’t thank the man enough.
According to his Patreon he now has his own studio and is in the process of adjusting to it so maybe we will get another album soon?
Brad liking Jack Stauber is really unexpected
sinais de tempos melhores
@@neo_yello true
i expected it tbh. it’s impossible to not like jack stauber or at least not appreciate his music for how unique it is
jacks interesting while being accessible and catchy, everyone loves psychedelic too- dont see why anyone would hate jack after sitting down and actually listening to pop food
This is the greatest redemption arc of all time. I'd love to see you react to HiLo as not only is that my favorite Jack Stauber album but also straight-up one of the my favorites of all time
He will hate that
He at least needs to hear Pizza Boy
I'm a little nervous to see what he thinks of HiLo, but I love that album a lot. He's already voiced his critiques on Leopard.
I'm curious to see if he would like Small World cus that song is beautiful. ❤
@@charcharbug Did he like Leopard?
have you heard zaki or joose? they're a couple bands that jack was also a part of.
Honestly I really get the impression that Jack Stuaber doesn't overthink any of his stuff too much, At least it feels to me like it's all his absolute genuine expression. He's one of the most genuine artists I've ever heard and seen and I just think it seeps into everything he does
Brad embraced Jack's absurdity and sincerity, and admire it. That's a huge surprise.
No he didn't???
After the tally hall ones this was refreshing, you changed some of my opinions on those but you can never change my mind on Jack Stauber, so I’m glad you liked it.
I didn't let him change my opinion on tally hall, I still like all their music lmao
@@totallyrealcia same lol
@@totallyrealciaSame lol
I didn't like Jack Stauber at first. I thought it was just quirky theatercore, until I heard his work with his previous band "Joose". It's more alternative rock-oriented, which I liked a lot, and I understood a lot more his influences after it. I would recommend "Corndog", "Growth" and "Kickback" from their selftitled album. It made me appreciate his solo work a lot more.
I like how even with very strong expectations going into albums, you have no problem changing your mind and enjoying things. Not something I'm personally very good at
first time i hard disagreed with brad on buttercup, my first listen with buttercup was damn near angelic! but i still love you brad taste in music 😩
This album got a solid wtf/10 for me. Each new song I heard made me raise my eyebrows in confusion, then I went back for some reason. Feels like Brian Wilson waking up from a meth binge and doing damage control. Gonna go listen to Bothersome again now
dude, I just revisted this album from a year of not listening to it. I legitimately had a different experience, and it was shocking that I never thought of the "psychedelic" feel of the album before. It's like I was listening to the album purely for the bops back then, and never came back. I thought it was a boring album in the past, now I think this album is actually pretty great and I wish I could've revisited and defended it sooner (during last stream when Jack Stauber was getting hated on).
I'll give it a 7/10 but I'm positive that it will grow on me the more I listen to it.
As a big Stauber fan I'm glad that Brad gave this project a fair chance. Its one of my favorite albums to just throw on and vibe too. Definitely don't agree with Brad 100% on this especially Bothersome, but a decent review nonetheless.
Bothersome is the best song on the album tbh
i dont know why anyone would hate Jack Stauber he's one of the most "easy to find at least enjoyable musicians" out there
I think Oh Klahoma is about a father trying to deal with the depression of his young child. Really dark song. Very well written. Really glad to see I was wrong on your interest in lyrics cause they really are so good in Jack's music.
Truth be told, as a huge fan of Jack Stauber, Pop Food was my first full album experience from him, and I sort of went into it with the same expectation you had, albeit to a lesser degree. My only exposure to Stauber was Buttercup, which did eventually grow on me, but man, it took some getting used to. I was very nervous listening to Pop Food, but in the end, I ended up loving it, so it's really cool to see someone else have a similar experience!
I don't want to instantly go "Now you gotta check out every little thing he's done!" or anything, but his animations and Micropop tunes are also really noteworthy, and especially the two TV specials he did for [adult swim], SHOP and OPAL. Can not recommend those enough, even if it's just in your own time instead of a full fledged video.
I first listened to this album back when quarantine started in 2020. There’s some good tracks and Jack Stauber is a unique artist from what I have heard.
jack stauber's music helped my get through a really rough time when it came out and im glad you like it. you should definitly check out hilo as it's his best album and is pop food turned up to 11
pop food was the reason I got into listening to albums.
Jack is my favorite artist ever since
I recommend watching the Opal short film, it has a great story and beautifully incorporates the music into it.
WE WON ! WE FUCKING WON !
just a video format idea for you:
i notice how every once in a while you say its a shrug but the visual is a smiley ball
obviously means it grew on you but id like to see more of it, the first half of your video is your 1st reaction and then the 2nd half is you giving a review after listening it like 5 or so times and explain further why you dislike, like the songs or why it fell off or grew on you
not a bad idea, but the issue is most people will stop watching after the reaction and I don't want to drag the vid out. I would rather quickly clarify a change with a note
@@BradTasteInMusicOfficial at least theres people like me willing to listen further? idk maybe try out the bill playlist i posted in another comment or do i need to pay you lmao
Had been waiting for a major critic site or music TH-camr to cover Jack Stauber's music for so long, awesome to see someone finally do it!!!
Also very proud of my fellow Brad Tasters begging Brad to cover HiLo, I second that
Same!!! Been waiting on Fantano specifically, but this is even better!
@@dez-m Yeah, a Pop Food or HiLo classic review would be legendary tho. Brad and that melon are like my favorite youtubers at the moment lol
Real shit dude,the frequent uploads lately have been crazy. This boy on the grind🔥
Loving the brad theatre-core arc
AHAHAHAHAHAHA AHAHA HE LIKED JACK STAUBER WE WIN!!!
In all seriousness, as someone who likes Jack Stauber quite a lot I didn't really like him at first because his singing and style came off as pretentious to me. When I saw more of his work, I eventually decided that he knows what he's doing and his goofy style is just how he does things. I'm glad you found a way to like him too!
Another note, the thing that got me into him was reading through the Genius analysis of his song Baby Hotline and thinking about my interperetation, then reading them for his other micropop songs (a series where he makes extended versions of songs from his claymation shorts on TH-cam)
This was my first Brad video. I've loved this guy's content since then, cool community. I hope he reacts to hilo or something else someday
Wow I really forgot how good this album was, even as someone who has listened to it a lot a year or two ago before I super got into music, I think it still stands up to how critical I am now unlike other things I used to listen to. I think its about as good now as when I first experienced it, but is probably best for me as background music as the later songs mellow out enough to start to bore me. Its still a strong 7 for me.
Also really happy that you've been reacting to stuff I used to listen to, didn't even know a lot of it is now "theatre core," but in retrospect it seems pretty accurate.
You're the only youtuber that makes me question some of my favorite albums and reaffirm my old favorites. I personally listened to HiLo a LOT more than this album. I'll def be listening to this one a bit.
This is the last thing I expected. Glad you found yourself pleasantly surprised! I definitely think you should check out his album Hi-Lo as well. I think I prefer that one too this one.
this really is a great album, even tho i do prefer HiLo to this one. i used to grind out homework listening to these albums, really good music to get your brain movin
HiLo feels so serious compared to this too. It's Alright legit has made me cry on multiple occations and Databend sounds like it'd straight up be a highlight on a Joy Division album
@@greentaigo2552 fr. It’s Alright feels like a warm hug every time
I'd also heavily recommend hi-lo! aesthetically the albums are pretty similar but hilo is very unique in its own right.
I really appreciate the legit criticism of songs you do and base it off what you hear that moment and not any biases you have to the artist or the community. Really comes off as professional and i enjoy hearing your legit comments on what you think
This video definitely put a smile on my face. Jack Stauber is one of my favorite artists of all time, but I was willing to bite the bullet and hear you criticize this album. The fact that you ended up liking his work just shows that Jack Stauber is far more than just a quirky tik tok boy.
Damn I’m glad you’ve been doing so many videos because they’re so fun to watch
OMFG IM SO HAPPY THAT YOU ARE REACTING TO THIS. Jack is much better than his major hits, and I love to see new people reacting to Jack so thank you!!
Jack's most recent album "HiLo" is much stronger than Pop Food imo. It can get excessively noisey occasionally, namely with the track "Pad Thai". But overall it has amazing songs and grooves. An amazing listen if you are checking out more of his stuff
as someone who heard this album a few months after it came out, this album has a special place in my heart, and I'm really glad you like it:)
Oh Klahoma is honestly my favorite so I was glad you liked it so much
Jack stauber has always been underrated I feel. Today today by stauber is one of the few songs that made me cry. There’s something unique that only his music and music videos can make you feel and if you haven’t watched any of his music videos you definitely should as they are some of the most unique music videos a musician has ever made
I share a lot of your points, banger project for sure. I’ve been a fan of jack stauber and his artistic direction. Excited to see more of what he creates
jack is so incredibly good at taking just a few elements and making them fill up the entire track just with the mixing and how he does compression. I genuinely do not know how he does it, everything just feels like it's exactly where he wants it.
i had such a good time watching this video!! I always look forward to your videos and its 100% worth it!!
Great video, love seeing brad like music that he thought he wouldnt. I listened to the chorus of butercup and oh klahoma in the background of random shit online, and was interested in listening to more, and this was a great way to do it. I think the experimental tag people put on this music makes people like brad get the wrong idea before even giving it a go, its just pop music with some weird choices here and there, and I really works, great álbum!
In relation to rock music, I think even on your own time you’d do well to check out Frank Iero and the Future Violents. The main singer was the guitarist for MCR and they’re influenced by a lot of classic rock sounds like the cure, which seems like something you’d enjoy. The vocal performances might be an acquired taste but the music is amazing.
Im so happy to see you enjoy this album, I absolutely love jack staubers works (both musically and his animations), been a fan of him for some years now
If there's anything about Jack, it's that his vision is unquestionable. Many people first heard about him after Buttercup went viral on TikTok. From there, it's easy to put him the same bag as other musicians cashing in on the quirky bedroom pop sound, but that's not the case. Seeing his animations first may help someone see that nothing of what he does is "empty", everything is 100% genuine, and that's what gives his mix of surreal absurdist lyrics with playful tunes and unique intonations all the appeal. I can't imagine another mind that could come up with the stuff he does under the Micropop name.
Pop Food is more of a poppy sound, as the name implies, but HiLo is definitely more on the experimental side. There's lots of weird stuff going on there, whether one likes that or not.
another thing about his vocal stuff is that it’s all natural, if you see live videos from him he actually is able to do that with his voice which is v impressive
As a fan of Jack Stauber, I really love dead weight. Even though it's not on this album, I hope Brad gets to review it in the future.
as soon as i saw this i was just waiting for you to get to dog nightmare! its my favourite by far, ive probably listened to it hundreds of times lol
If a musician/band is from Pennsylvania, there's like an 80% chance that they're good. Something about that state, they just pump out great music.
Great video Brad!
I found Jack's channel back in 2018 when he had 30k subs and was featured on YT's creator on the rise. It was his weird animations. He released Hilo album then, I decided to check out his music and I became a fan, listening to his album ever since 2018. Jack's music now takes me back to those times in 2018-2019.
I personally like his album Hilo more than this, would really enjoy you reacting to it! :)
Yea, personally I find his Hilo and Micro pop material to be his absolute best. The rest of his albums never clicked for me.
He listened to some Hilo before and he absolutely hated it lol
HiLo was just so groovy at times (also I love the pfp)
@@cringeceo4626 He also hated the songs he heard from this album, yet he gave it an 8- when he reacted to the whole thing. That’s why I want him to react to Hilo because it could also grow on him like this album did
@@theoddfox6306 I agree! (And thank you ☺️)
This is almost on par with the twenty one pilots arc and I’m all here for it.
I'm super glad you liked it! I don't listen to him quite as much now and I've broadened my musical horizons much more since but I had a period from 2019-2020 where I pretty much only listened to Jack Stauber (i've even got a few of his deeper cuts on my channel for archival purposes) so his music definitely holds a special place in my heart. He's not necessarily the best to do it but he's a super endearing musician and a super super talented visual artist. I'd highly suggest for any fan of his to join his patreon at the $5 tier, his newest work on there is truly fantastic. esp. "ebb" from last year, such a beautiful song it's worth $5 a month alone
I was so excited for you to get to Dog Nightmare; One of my favourites! Interesting how the synth reminded you of Celeste. I've been recommended that soundtrack quite a bit
its hard to hear brad say good things about music due to how sarcastic he sounds. but it is nice to hear him actually happy with an artist.
I love this album so much.
so excited to see you go into this album! i saw you say a few times on stream that you're not a stauber fan and i can see why hearing buttercup and some of his weirder stuff in isolation wouldn't wow you. i'm a huge fan of his but it wasn't really until 'i understand' that his music 100% clicked for me because it made me really appreciate the way he captures these nuanced little emotions with his synths, and it helps that i do fuck with some theatercore shit from time to time :p it would be cool to see you react to hilo, though i will say that i DID NOT care for it on my first listen, but it stuck in my head so much that i kept coming back to it and it started to really grow on me
Jack Stauber is my favorite artist so I'm happy to see you review him!
I’m so glad you like Oh Klahoma I felt like there was a chance you would. It really does sound so catchy and nice. My favorite from Jack.
It's a shame you didn't check out his visuals and animation, that's where it really shines
Jack Stauber's lyrics are always a strange thing. They for sure all have so much meaning, he puts a lot of care into the songs he makes, but it's so vague that we can really find whatever meaning we want. His own meanings are hidden behind these simplistic lyrics, a lot of times being about loss, growing old, addiction, and depression. Songs such as My Plea - the character is asking people for money to fuel their addiction, an addiction that formed after they dropped out of school and decided to bar tend. At the same time, the song could be seen as such a goofy song when you look at it from the surface.
It's totally understandable when people don't like the silly voices, but I really love them. It brings in character and (to me) symbolizes mania in such a way that otherwise can't be.
A reactor who gives a fresh take instead of regurgitating the same "Wow, this album and everything about it is so GOOD!" I love Jack Stauber but god, it's annoying to not see a new take until now. Good music can have flaws!
yea for real but I don't think a lot of people here appreciate that , which is kinda unfortunate. one of the few "music reviewers" that actually says something of substance.
Bro looks like the Dr. House of reviewing music 💀💀💀💀
I would love to see you react to some of Jacks shorts such as “Shop: A Pop Opera” or “Opal”. They’re amazing!!
Me at the beginning of the video:
😡😤 shut up Brad Jack’s awesome
Me at the end:
🥰😘🤗 ok I forgive you
Same lol
You should review a mac demarco album, maybe This Old Dog
Some of the parts of Jack Stauber that drew me in were the loungey dreamy aesthetic that feels both retro and timeless and that is how i would describe Mac's 2017 This Old Dog to a T
Brad, if you dig this, I could see you liking Lemon Demon's Spirit Phone.
Despite the weird complaints at times this was a decent review/reaction. Like hearing you talk about it very nice. 👍
absolutely wild to see a guy get stauber pilled in real time
YAYYYY HE LIKED IT!!!! HiLo is better in my opinion, but me being a Jack Stauber fan, I'm suprised you liked this album MORE than me! (Still do really like Pop Food, I just find myself coming back to the first 5 tracks over any of the others)
Might I also recommend the Zaki album? Zaki was a band that Jack ran for awhile. They released one pretty neat album.
If I had a nickle for everytime Brad drastically changed his opinion on music
you should definitely check out his Hilo album mate!
i’m so glad you enjoyed this one, it was unexpected
becoming Jack-pilled 😇😇😇 you definitely have to give it a few shots to get a full grasp on what he's about and the sound is really inaccessible at first, but again, you gotta get used to it. there are definitely some of his stuff that aren't the best, but when you get past the initial put-off of his weird sound, and do a deeper dive into his stuff, you'll figure out his true genius.
I love, your honesty. Im a fan of Jacks, but you are an honest man, and i cant dislike the real, true, opinion youve said.
And also, the fact that even tho you dont like it, youve revisited, trying to see if you can find what we love.
Bothersome is such an underrated track. It’s one of my personal favorites.
True, i understand that could be boring but for me is the fifth best song of the album just behind oh klahoma and above dog nightmare imo
I remember playing a jack stauber song for you on stream and you were very indifferent, glad to see you've came around
I’ve been here since the black parade video and have wanted to see you listen to some Jack Stauber since, I’m so happy to finally see it come to fruition! Needless to say, I’d love to see you review HiLo. (Micropop is 99 songs so you’d have your work cut out for you there.) I think he definitely delivers more on HiLo and gives the listeners more to focus on. Given I might be biased and literally have bedsheets of the album cover, I think it’s better than pop food in a lot of ways. I hope to see ya review it!
Once again, I'm convinced of the genius of this album's ability to cohesively combine all of Jack Stauber's weirdness.
Brad once again answers my prayers and I'm unbelievably thankful, brad if you do HiLo I'll love you forever
Highly recommend to hear his "Micropop" songs (the extended versions) too. Great review Brad
Should definitely check out HiLo too, interested to see your reaction to the changes he made in that album
Please listen to more of Jack, he’s honestly a genius and deserves so much more attention.
The album he released a year after this one “HiLo” is easily my favorite of his and is definitely worth checking out
Brad you got to listen to the new Yard Act album, it’s post punk, with some amazing lyrics. Political and storytelling are the combos on the album. With funky bass, solid percussion, and great guitar. Worth a shot
I really like 'Bothersome'. Hard to put it into words, I can be bad at explaining sometimes- but I definitely think there's something there.
Dude the fact that you like this album is so funny to me. I’m here for it tho fr
