I feel like Issues have perfected pop metal with this album here. You really can't classify this album any other way but calling it "progressive pop metal", this is something I've never heard before from any band prior, it just takes the best elements of funk, soul, R&B, and contemporary pop and throws in a heavy groove, it's not heavy the way metal is traditionally heavy, but it ain't trying to be here. I think Issues are really just spearheading the next form of pop metal, what hair metal was to the 80s, stuff like this is going to be to the upcoming decade, Issues is creating something completely new here, and this style doesn't have a name yet, but it certainly will, I think is gonna catch on, and actually make heavy/hard rock somewhat relevant again for the first time in well over a decade. At least I hope so..... Either way, a good amount of songs on this album sound like good songs to make love to your girlfriend or boyfriend to,......this band knows what they're doing, and I support it! ;)
Nocturnal Folf I wish more people would see it that way. I try to explain that to people and they either say they don’t like it because it’s too many different styles or it’s too heavy. And I’m just like no. You find the right couple of songs that fit what you like and I promise the rest will grow on you.
Nocturnal Folf can second that, I’m coming from adtr - architects - Polaris etc and yet I’ve become addicted to Issues like a crazy amount. I think metal heads just need to be a bit open minded and give some non-heavy songs a chance, because once you do you end up loving Issues 🤙
Every album Issues has made has such high replay value. I have listened to all these songs countless times and still love them. I wish they would keep going.
Some of yall complaining about the direction they're going act like Issues was ever actually heavy in the first place lmao they just had heavy elements, Michael's vocals mostly, Sky and AJ can obviously scream but they didn't want to make a metalcore album, this album is fantastic in a different way than the other releases were, get over it
It certainly isn't metalcore, that's for sure, it's something different and way more interesting, that and it scares the metal elitists away which is always a good thing.
@@nocturnalfolf6097 They're on another level for sure. I've never heard anything like this. Give me the instrumentals of this album and I'll immediately recognize their style. They're just that good!
I went through highschool blasting Woe, Is Me on a daily basis. These dudes grew up, just like we all did. I couldn't be happier with the way they developed into something entirely unique from everyone else.
I'm a big fan or experimental and prog metal, I like this, I hate saying it after hating Tyler Carter so long. But that 2/2 section. You can tell the guitarist is a djent fan for sure with some odd little signatures in the cd
I could just imagine them doing a video somewhat similar to Coma where the band is playing and the camera sweeps back and forth between the members. Each time the sound switches back and forth between chillstep/house and their Issues sound, the graphics can switch between anime (LP Breaking the Habit style animation) and the band members images exploding outward in different colored paint. It could continue with them all adopting a colored version of the statuesque paint AJ wore in the Drink About It video. It could close with them all walking through the same door the woman on the album is walking through.
This album is so different and I love it. Some of the songs are strange out of context so I recommend listening to the whole album straight through and it all comes together beautifully I think.
I think Issues have really changed, but from a musical standpoint, they've really done something different and i love it. I love the lyrics. This album is groovy. Without you, Rain, Tapping out, and this song are some of the best ones
Brandon Mickley maybe the word isn’t heavier maybe it’s screaming makes it more aggressive. Cause the riff I’m down fall is probably the heaviest thing the band has done. It’s in double drop C#. Tuning doesn’t equal heavy but that riff is insane.
This song is absolutely beautiful. I feel like you can cry and fall in love with this song over and over. If I knew the meaning to it. I love words to the music it matches so well. Have always loved issues since day one and this album is so different but beautiful!
if you prefer self titled to this you are insane. I used to love the heavier issues, then I graduated high school lmao. issues music matured with my tastes, and some of you still have the mental state of a middle school scene kid.
@@Nornfang You're speaking as if you're any better than them because they like heavy music. No need to be a condescending dickhead over music lmao. My brother is 28 and he jams to heavier music too, I don't get why you gotta try and make yourself feel better and put other people down because they have different tastes than you.
Just listened to the hole album . man i wish yall would have let AJ stretch those vocal chords man thats what we love about issues those raw screams gotta give a us a little bit come on now
This is the most beautiful issues song... jesus christ
It has been my favorite since I discovered it
1:25 - 1:42 Wow, that groove is infectious!

@@zacpoirrier3569 ah yes, too pop for the metalheads/hardcore kids and too heavy for the pop fans. It sucks. Lol

this whole album slaps so hard
i love this whole album more than i thought i would.
me too
My favorite off the album, by far...Love the harmonizing screaming and singing at the end of the song. 2:28
This song kills
Yeah, that ending gets me too man.
"I can't feel you now
I'm in love with the rhythm
In love with the rhythm"
I groove so much to this song.. holy shit so good💙
Simple and Clean - Utada vibes, i love this.
Nice lol
Yes!
Honestly, best song on the album. 12/10 recommend.
I love you.
Downfall
Guitar is so powerful omfg !
So glad you guys popped up in my suggestion list over a month ago. Great music is hard to find nowadays.
This album really grew on me. AJ's guitar work is top notch
I like the new direction, headass. Wouldn’t want the same sound from a band. This is what issues needs to survive and stay fresh. Keep it up 👍

The sermon in a sentence: shut up gatekeepers lol
Im in love with the rythm
I think I found my cloud 9.
Beautiful Oblivion.
A new style of songs, softer, but, still cool and nice 🙌🏼

A beautiful song to close out what is a Sumptuous album! Well done Issues! 😊👌👍
this album rlly hit hard. i can’t stop listening to it. these songs are just wonderful
agreed still jamming
Bad ass album!!!!
This album is so different and I love it. Some of the songs are strange out of context so I recommend listening to the whole album straight through and it all comes together beautifully I think.
honestly one of my fav songs off the album just because of that two-step drum loop
literally my favourite album
enjoying it almost for every time I listening music
thank you guys, so unique and groovy stuff
My actual ears are in a happy place 😊 the lyrics are awesome. The tune goes with the lyrics.
I remember reading this lyrics little by little, crazy to see it was actually a song that was being planned to be an song on this album 🖤
1:03 LOL I can hear outworld devourer's ult, also nice song
So beautiful
Love this song the chorus is amazing!
This song awakens something inside me and I’m sooooo here for it😩 this record is monumental for the scene!!!
Love the lyrics an the vibe it gives
This is popcore and I fucking love it.
Just heard this song the other day and Jesus I can’t stop replaying it.
I think Issues have really changed, but from a musical standpoint, they've really done something different and i love it. I love the lyrics. This album is groovy. Without you, Rain, Tapping out, and this song are some of the best ones
Im addicted to this song.. I put "repeat1" on Spotify and listen to it everyday everytime
Thank you guys for pushing the envelope yet again guys! Great job!!
Beautiful album!
This the best song on your album IMO. Just finding out about you guys, I'm impressed.
Goosebumps...
Want a video for this one.
I want a guitar playthrough from AJ
So many people in the comments not knowing what uk garage is is.... So odd. Y'all need to look it up! You'll love it if you like the intro!
I can hear the Craig David influence in this!
This is amazing.... Speechless
I LOVE this!!♡
Was once pretty into them. A fan of both them and DGDs style. Unfortunetly cant get into issues as of late. Glad to see them doing what they love.
I NEED THIS ALBUM!
My sister is a huge fan. She's been to every Michigan show... She forced you upon me and I'm so glad! See u in December!!!!!
Detroit$nowBunny I hate your profile
"Heaviest album to date"
It's really groovy though not gonna lie.
Brandon Mickley maybe the word isn’t heavier maybe it’s screaming makes it more aggressive. Cause the riff I’m down fall is probably the heaviest thing the band has done. It’s in double drop C#. Tuning doesn’t equal heavy but that riff is insane.
Definitely not the heaviest to but it’s ok!
Then don't snap them out of existence, Thanos
Heavy asf tbh
i dunno man. the guitar riffs during the chorus are fucking monstrous.
Perfect.
2:12
this fused jazz and metal perfectly. i don't think that there is an equal in regards to their grandeur and majesty
INSANELY GOOD
Love it!
Dam, sounds like a badass anime opening🔥🔥🔥
Damn, you're kinda right. I like it.
Tyler just did one . Callrd contradiction
02:26 tyler goes scream
This album is somewhat jazzy and groovy... I really liked it, even though it is way different than previous albums...
Amazing
It my favorit album!!
Really different but I’m strangely into it
cause its good
I dont like that SO MANY bands go pop or lighter voices BUT like I see stars BMTH they do it well this band has merged the two perfectly aswell
There needs to be be a remix to this!
I love it!
SOULCORE
Ushercore I like it ❤
This song is absolutely beautiful. I feel like you can cry and fall in love with this song over and over. If I knew the meaning to it. I love words to the music it matches so well.
Have always loved issues since day one and this album is so different but beautiful!
Jason Derulocore i like it
Hahah
Nah, it's absolutely Craig David core
Lmao 🤣🤣🤣👏👏
YES
Lmao
This is literally my cloud nine song
Anyone else here before 1k? Hell, even before 500?
I wasn’t but our man Chris Calyx who also is a artist was... got us onto these guys and we have fell in love!
Jp apple music actually got it 12 hours early lol- before they even started their release stream
bless timezones
DuBLD33 Ik I downloaded it there too
Time to watch the views go wayyy up.
GS Issues🤘🤘🤘
I can't believe Tyler Carter from Issues is literally Sigma from Overwatch
So damn good
issues can made guitar 7line to pop music so amazing
So worth the wait, guys. Truly beautiful.
Man this is some tasty stuff.
Different, but I'm loving it!
Deffo my favorite Issues album to date. Mad DGD vibes throughout and I'm cool with that.
Lolwat? I wanna know what you're smoking because then this would sound way more badass.
@Jason LovesABR CM'ON JASON DADDY listen to "Without You" and tell me it doesn't sound like boneless Dance Gavin Dance.
@@CharlieViking95 I suppose there's a tad bit of Will Swan type riffs if that's what you're referring to.
Do you even listen to DGD?
Matt YT yeah since 2012 lol
I'm digging this song .
Please, music video of this
At 3:01 to 3:03 I think theirs a mixing error. Like a random chorus just starts and ends in like a second or two. Idk maybe it’s just me.
Watch their live performance of Beautiful Oblivion, you'll witness Tyler doing the screams 🔥
if you prefer self titled to this you are insane. I used to love the heavier issues, then I graduated high school lmao. issues music matured with my tastes, and some of you still have the mental state of a middle school scene kid.
That explains why these guys are always angry. They like to listen to angry music!
wait till you turn 19 dude, and you realize that you had better music taste when you were 12, 13, 14, than 15 , 16, 17. It happens to almost everyone.

Trust in the truth. Lol
Reminds me of Tessrract
Same here bro
3:11 THICCCCCCC
the Song of bass is monster.
I fucking love this band, man
this is so fucking good
This is better than that Flexin song you guys just released
I hear the vocal sounds Lil bit like Craig David in the Post Hardcore Band, Johnny Craig also Lil bit
🤘
🎤😫IN LOVE WITH THA RHYTHM!!!!!
Awesome! 🔥
It has so much sexy vibes. Love it!
👍👍👍👍🤘🤘🤘🔥🔥🔥🔥
Just listened to the hole album . man i wish yall would have let AJ stretch those vocal chords man thats what we love about issues those raw screams gotta give a us a little bit come on now
Idk about others but I go to metalcore for screams. For issues I come for catchiness and groove 😂
@@liambarrett2638 yeah Excatly their are hundreds of metalcore bands doing uncleans lol and issues isnt even at the top of that list for good uncleans
@@liambarrett2638 I go for both. Sure, some of their softer songs are decent (Hero, and Yung & Dum) but their best songs have a mix of heavy and soft.
