Hey guys, this has become one of my favourite albums of all time and I've watched this reaction countless times 😂 PLEASE PLEASE PLEEEEEASE do their first album Mercurial World. I need to see you listen to it, you won't regret it!!! Big fan x
Niko Gonzalez
please react to this is how tomorrow moves by beabadoobee
Harry
finally got around to this. incredible album
Ben Dillon
her voice reminds me of beabadoobee, you guys should totally give her a listen
Mega
I had to go back after watching the podcast first because man, I felt completely the same on my first listen, it brought me back to middle school jamming out to RAM in my room. What a beautiful album, Matt and Mica are absolute MASTERS of their craft
ari
second this!
Timid Frequencies
Agreed. "Hysterical Us" would most certainly receive the highly coveted Kevin Clap
Memo Mondaca
Which reminds me, you guys should check out the Deluxe version of Desire, I Want To Turn Into You!
Memo Mondaca
The use of motifs in this album was a very awesome touch! Reminded me a bit of Caroline Polachek. Pop is SO back this year!
teyonie
Mica's voice reminds me of the lead singer from The Cardigans
Gavin S
Would definetly suggest Traumatic Livelihood by Jazmin Bean really cool album. Imaginal Disc is top 5 of this year for me, keep it up guys
kai
i know im a little late to this, but i can’t thank u guys enough for reacting to this because otherwise, this wouldve been an album i just skipped over and now its easily in my top 3 for the year i just cant get enough of it so thank u!!!
Ian
Unexpectedly loved this listen! If you like the crazy synths and random changes, you should give DECIDE by Djo a listen :)
kai
I second this!!!!
Gabriel Guerrera
i've been lintening to them for a while and i'm so glad that you guys liked it. THIS ALBUM IS GREAT
Elijah Gould
Sad. I saw them tweet that they would in March but maybe there's a reason. Still one of my fav of the year
Madden
i don't think it's happening at this point :< maybe vanisher
Diego
are you guys still planning on listening to scrapyard by quadeca?
Patrick Davis
I was excited to see your reactions to Cry for Me cause I've been so obsessed with it lately and wow, ngl I got a little teary-eyed when Kevin said "FUCK, music is great, man". I couldn't have said it better myself. Music is fucking great, man ❤️
Jack D Fritts
Love the reaction! You guys should do some Porter Robinson sometime!
Jordan Mullins
Second this!
Franco Graubard
I know it’s an older album and newer and more in-demand albums take precedence but I can imagine the love you guys will have for that record
Franco Graubard
i’m rewatching this again bc just seeing your reactions to this I loved so much but also hearing Kevin mention Secrets (Your Fire) made me tingle at the idea of a Mercurial World reaction
Jamie Bekins
ok now you need to listen to Porter Robinson's album nurture. I remember yall talking about it a while ago but if you like this album i think you will like porter
Cooper
Really need to express my thanks to anyone who requested and to you guys for listening so quickly! I'd heard a couple of mag bay's songs prior to this album, but this was never on my radar and I definitely would have overlooked it if not for this reaction. what a beautiful experience
Diego Pumarino
Kev's reaction to Death & Romance was everything
Private Tristan Bongo
oh my gosh ive been waiting for this one. thank you so much. 3d country geese next please
Tyler
Death & Romance easily jumped into my top 5. What a track. Forgot about these guys but their sound is so unique. Love the reactions to it, reminds me of Lets Start Here from Yatchy last year. Cheers
Doğa Yücel
I rarely feel like I’m exploding while listening to an album, and this album does a great job at it. Usually it’s ignored by the online music people but parcels live vol 1 has great moments that make you lose it. I’d love to see a reaction to that!!
Griff Dowden
Think we need a full Mercurial World listen now
Briana Padilla
I’m so so so happy you guys listened to this! It’s my favorite album this year for sure 💕
Quincy Pierre
react to a great chaos by ken carson
The Gr8 Scott
I kindof agree that it feels like the posture of someone pulling out a disk with the fingertips. But for some reason the vibes just make me feel like it's going in.
Hmm idk
I love magdalena bay and been following them since mercurial world. You should listen to that and the EP they droped last year called mini mix vol 3. I actually prefer these projects to the new album because its so uplifting to me. The new album is amazing tho and i loved watching your reaction 🙏
Edward Healy
Been in love with Magdalena Bay since Mercurial World came out. I really recommend that album as well. And I can confirm they are phenomenal live. In my top 5 best concerts I've attended. Sadly they are not coming to Montreal this time around :( Enjoy the concert in Vancouver!! It's 100% worth it
Jaysee M
Did you guys go and see them live?? I have tickets to see them here in Atlanta!
Jimmy Hayes
This album is straight-up magical! Also, I don't know if Kevin gets this often, but he kind of looks like Josh Homme's long-lost brother lol (a compliment!) which is also a way of me saying do Queens of the Stone Age songs for the deaf!!
Zahra
Magdalena Bay sent me to synth-pop heaven when I first heard Dreamcatching!! If it's drums you want then I'd wholly recommend If I Can't Have Love I Want Power by Halsey (w/NIN), maybe listen to Easier than Lying as a taster). Also, I can't remember what reaction it was but I think Kevin mentioned liking Raye, another Amy Winehouse-esque Londoner would be Joy Crookes!
hallucane
wall of sound + gentle voice feels like Sleigh Bells!
Sam Panfil
Secrets (your fire) was the only song I knew from them before this album, it was just a random Spotify suggestion
Gardner Mobley
Just something I thought y’all would be super interested in: Matt and Mica stream on YouTube and Twitch a lot and they have production breakdowns for literally ALL of their previous projects. HOPEFULLY the breakdown for this comes soon but I recommend keepin an eye out if ur interested!
Colby Kultgen
Great album
purplelinks
no offense but for me it looks like this " illumaniti devil hand " TAKES the cd out of her head and not puts it in , maybe im wrong but for me looks like that , lets argue
Trey Buckner
Very recently listened to their first album for the first time and was blown away by it! So glad y’all did this one, this was my first time hearing this album and it’s really something special. Will deff be returning to this many many times. Still asking for you to do LCD SOUNDSYSTEM - self titled album!!!! Please please please 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
purplelinks
never heard of magdalena bay
Nic S
Glad you guys got my messenger pigeon! What a phenomenal piece of art man ive had this shit on repeat since it came out. Kills me I wont be able to make either of the chicago shows so let me know how they were live
Isaac Sargent
Second this!! Great album!
Franco Graubard
saw you guys posted this as i was driving to Tampa for Gambino, and now finally got to watch this after that terrible drive back (unbelievable show tho) so so so glad y’all loved this experience of an album❤️
Deen Tristan
Been waiting for this one! Had it on repeat since it came out. Hard to describe the album sonically but this album feels like KKB's Time 'n' Place by way of Random Access Memories.
Matthis Peterson
Would love to see Conditions by The Temper Trap , i think a lot of people are sleeping on this and its my favorite album ever :) love you guys <3
yellowflannel
That was great reaction, thanks guys! I did my part spamming Connor on Twitter to react to it :)
Pedro Henrique
this one is SPECIAL
Lotheru
It's here, imagine a disk......
Scot Push
let’s goooo
yellowflannel
Nice!
Cage Anon
I was a HUGE fan of Mercurial World, and I wasn't sure if this was better at first because it wasn't as immediately catchy. But each time I find something that I appreciate more and more and every Kevingasm moment (SORRY) just hits harder. Perfect scored album for me guys, AOTY!!!
Kasper Sloth
You should give Care for me by Saba, very impressive storytelling - if not the whole album, PROM/KING is the highlight
Ed
yes yes YES
George TJ
So incredibly pumped you guys listened to this. This album is amazing and genuinely made me feel transported to a whole new world. Crazy good album, and its maybe my AOTY Which is crazy cause like Kevin said the past year+ has been amazing for music, and pop specifically. I thought we would have peaked with BRAT. Mag Bay has a bit of a cult following and I heard Mercurial World when an excited fan put me on a year ago. I perfer Imaginal Disk a ton atm but it would still be a great listen! I think at some point you guys should revisit Anderson Paak and his project that came out earlier this year too btw
Dawson Hook
what a start to the month!!🙏
Tucker Storrs
I've commented this on a few videos before, but I think the album that will best blow your nuts off in the same way this one did, is the Parcels album Day/Night. It's basically the halfway point between Random Access Memories and Pink Floyd. Absolutely insane instrumental texture, with soaring group vocals from the 5 lads. It has so many ideas that it explorers, yet stays rooted in a 70s disco-inspired bedrock. Hell, Daft Punk's last credit before breaking up was producing a single off their debut album! I think I dm'ed Kevin about it on Discord a while back 😅
ActualKuma
In a livestream Mica said that yachty heard love is everywhere and asked them for the instrumental if you were wondering what song came first.
Tucker Storrs
"I need a toke" at the end of Death and Romance is the most relatable shit ever 🤣 Absolutely love that song, as someone who has Mercurial World as a 9/10 album, this album absolutely lives up to its predecessor.
l30 D4vid
everytime i listen to this album its new experience omgg
Liam Rafferty
Kevin picking up on the prog changes is super on point. They were in a prog band prior to this project. They cite a lot of prog bands as influences.
Cole Helvey
Love that we got to share this experience with you guys. This album feels so special.
Liam Rafferty
I was 2 seconds away from sending yall a DM on Twitter telling you to do this record before I saw this post lol. This and Romance have been the only records I can think about since they come out.
sebastian
NFL starts tomorrow and if you guys wanna follow a team this year you guys should definitely tune into some games this weekend
emily
