    The only ones I don’t care for after my first listen are “Lilith”, “Girl with a Gun” and “The Lighthouse”. Everything else is cool.

    I think it’s the clunkiest melody. Sounds implanted from a Carrie Underwood revenge song.

    As a fan from before she even put out her first ep, I’m really glad to see them getting acclaim and putting out something this excellent

    The mixing on "You Asked For This" is kinda muddy and the vocals are WAY too loud. Whoever mixed that MGK album should've mixed that song and it probably would've sounded clearer. I also am struggling to get into "Girl Is A Gun" but I just need to listen to it some more.
     
  6. Enjoyed this a lot more than expected, have never liked a Halsey record. Honey and a Lilith are a ton of fun. Lots of interesting stuff to chew on, I’ll be happy to spend some more time with it

    Never really liked anything Halsey's put out, but this is incredible. I'd love to see Trent and Atticus work with more pop artists

    Is the film for this going to be streaming online anytime soon?

    There are no plans announced right now, but I'm sure it's coming soon. You don't spend that much money on a film for only a two-day theatrical run.

    I'd agree with this. Was hoping for more like "Nightmare" and “Experiment on Me” but this is great so I'm not too bothered. Still hope she goes in that direction more at some point.
     
  13. The piano melody on “The Tradition” is perfect

    Never listened to Halsey before but I'm really digging this. "I am not a woman" is like a top-tier late stage NIN song.

    I remember when Kanye released the Jesus Is Lord movie it was initially supposed to be one day only and then it turned out to never leave theatres. I’m sure this will be the same.

    “I am not woman, I’m a god” is the best thing they’ve ever done bar none.

    it had its moments but i found it to be quite uneven and a slog to get through. its only a handful of minutes longer than this one but this just feels so much more cohesive and consistent thus much easier to make it through.

    First time listening to Halsey outside of her feature on that MGK song. Really enjoying this.

    The chorus of “You asked for this” reminds me of Coheed lol
