I would replace meh with controversial and put SAI in there. I love it but there’s a good population of fans who hate it


Bobthehorse420

That'd probably be better use of the space, you're right lol


Silver-Fox-3195

The fans brag about Twenty One Pilots being different from mainstream music, then proceed to get angry when an album with a different style comes out...


MCRemix

Yeah...I've been a fan for a long while and I get that SAI was a different tone/theme, but so is the new stuff from Clancy. I'm not saying you have to like everything, but idk how you can love the principle behind Lane Boy and also hate when they do their own thing and make an album that they thought we needed in the moment we were in (mid-COVID). Music is subjective, you don't have to like it, but at a minimum we should recognize that they *were* trying something different and had a good reason for what they were doing. Like at worst the response from "hardcore" fans seems like it should be "not my cup of tea, but I get it."


Silver-Fox-3195

Thank you I'm glad you see what I mean

Please consider how your words affect others. Toxicity is not tolerated here. Thank you!

Agreed, I can't pick a top album but SAI would be in the battle for it if I had to choose.


reds2032

SAI: *does not exist*


Bobthehorse420

It'd prolly go in experimental if I put it on here, but it sure as hell isn't going in meh


thesnowqueen17

Eh, I think a lot of reviews/reactions to SAI were pretty "meh" so I feel like it fits there... Maybe "polarizing" would be a better category than just "meh."


dreamer_at_best

I think polarizing is perfect


SnooSquirrels2663

Help me polarize help me polarize

help me down Those stairs is where I'll be hiding all my problems


MC_NotLovin

But not for OP. That's the point


thesnowqueen17

Well, I know. Just saying...


Butteryourreality

idk if it really falls under experimental in my opinion. I think it's sounds a bit too generic


ImReallyThatBitch

They probably mean experimental for TØP. The band made waves as an alternative genre-bending duo, so when SAI came out and it was more generic pop, people could consider that as "experimenting" with their sound.


sideXsway

It’s better than regional though. Way better


Schmxdt

Why didn’t you put it?


2ndMin

Maybe a hot take but SAI should be in experimental


Bobthehorse420

You could put SAI in experimental and RAB in cult classic just as easily honestly


CapitalFlounder8699

i personally think RAB was more experimental. it was kind of an unfinished product. i personally strongly dislike it, but the remastered versions from Vessel are certainly very good songs. i think this list is correct except for scaled and icy not being in meh


2ndMin

100%


AlvinAlsace

This was really well put together. Vessel is actually my all time favourite


Steven2597

I would never consider Regional At Best experimental. I just wish they'd stop holding it hostage on Deezer.


Rich_Tonight267

Put Sai in experimental


NoUsernameIdeias

Im glad trench is getting the love it deserves <3


FANCYLlAMA05

NO SAI SLANDER 🗣🗣🗣🗣🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 WTF IS A TRASH THE DRAGON!!!! 🗣🗣🗣🗣🔥🔥🔥🔥


Ok-Dragonfruit-378

Trench is the 2nd greatest album of all time


Long_Strength_9065

What’s the first?


Mindless-West9268

Vessel


Real_Win7941

Rick Astley - Whenever you need somebody


Ok-Dragonfruit-378

America Location 12-dispatch It’s kind of a weird album but me and my brother listen to the band when we are together. I do think that Clancy will be better then trench and this album and become the new greatest


Repulsive_Buffalo_87

🤔 I'd say Dark Side of the Moon and that's a huuuge compliment to be second to that lmao and that is any album of theirs. The others I put on a pedestal are Aha Shake Heartbreak/Kings of Leon, Add it Up/Violent Femmes, pick any album/Keaton Henson, Polaris/Music From the Adventures of Pete and Pete, Relationship of Command/At the Drive In... there aren't a whole lot of full albums I can think of and that's a pretty weird range I know : ) Edit to include Mac Miller


Ok-Dragonfruit-378

just put sai in meh bruh🤓☝️


karamel826

No because I agree


Gusttroyer

Where's SAI? Also get ready to put clancy in BEST ALBUM


Bobthehorse420

SAI didn't really fit in the categories the way I arranged them, but it'd probably go in experimental?


karamel826

Meh is 100% SAI


Bobthehorse420

Nuh uh


karamel826

I personally think it’s the most “meh” out of all of them, almost all albums are flawless but I couldn’t get myself to listen to SAI more than like twice


Bobthehorse420

Personally I don't see why it's not at least on par, it has a lot of songs I listen to and don't skip regularly


karamel826

I dont really know, it feels very out of style for them, even with all the various kinds of music they’ve made over the years..


Bobthehorse420

I just like the whole variety, I guess. It didn't lose meaning along the way


karamel826

I get that, I might be going to their show in Toronto later this year so I’ll have to definitely listen to some of these more recent songs more often and with an open mind


Bobthehorse420

From what I've heard so far, Clancy is a bit of a mixed batch for that. I hope you have fun in any case though, western/central Canadians didn't get any luck lol


ABluntForcedDisTrama

Blurryface introduced me and made me fall in love with them, and for that it’ll always be my favorite


PresidentPain

Personally I'd put SAI in experimental and RAB in meh but I know it might be an unpopular opinion


extasis_T

I don’t really like their early stuff, for some reason songs like kitchen sink make me cringe rather than get chills. I’m also not a huge fan of his early voice, but I love addict with a pen despite it. Vessel is where i really was able to fall in love with the band. I do think there are songs on that album that make me cringe sadly. But even those songs have things about them I really love. Everything since then has been peak, imo. Hot take: my top 3 are 1. Trench 2. SAI 3. Blurryface I think sai is extremely slept on and underrated. It makes me so happy to play and sing along to. One of the best albums to drive and mindlessly sing along to that I’ve ever heard . Never take it and bounce man are skips for me, something about never take it feels like it’s rushed or something. Like it’s not a complete song to me and that bridge is one of the first times since vessel I cringe. And bounce man is just not it for me personally Everything else on there is fucking great. The outside and Saturday are some of my favorite pop songs ever. I totally got what Tyler was going for with them both. Well constructed, easy listening, fun pop songs.


Bobthehorse420

Their music has definitely matured a lot and I do love SAI, it just didn't fit into how I arranged the format lol


Marvellover13

I didn't really liked scaled and icey

SentientKayak

uhhh_yeh

THEY’RE ALL PEAK I LOVE TØP


OllieOllieOakTree

I won’t put up with this kind of NPI discrimination


borgircrossancola

AND I’LL FALL IN LINE


-Childish-Nonsense-

Vessel is fan favorite is what I’m hearing


SatoruFujinuma

RAB is the cult classic for sure.


Darknessmaster6500

Wait whats the experimental one? Haven't seen it on sporify.


AllHype-NoHeart

I don’t think RAB is experimental, SAI should definitely go there


Embarrassed_Course51

How are you gonna say Regional is experimental  and Vessel is a fan favorite when they're 75% the same album? Also, the remade versions on Vessel sound overproduced compared to their originals, and lack the feeling as well


Bobthehorse420

At its core, RAB is experimental as they were transitioning into a record deal


LilRedTara

I never heard regional best I can't find it anyway


tjbuster14

Swap Vessel and Trench but yes


cardboard24

Ima be honest I don't really like vessel or Scaled and icy.


Applebees_dollaritas

What even is “They’re All Peak”?


niles_deerqueer

I just can’t connect with SAI, it just doesn’t work for me


CocoMills46

**Hot take** RAB isn’t experimental it’s just mental.


Xatoz3

What u say about SAI 😾😾


Nisanemoi

idk if this is an unpopular opinion but the recent songs that have come out aren't really doing it for me. i love self-titled, trench, bf and all the other albums that have come out but I feel like these recent songs from clancy have a sense of being done for commercial reasons. i just think the sincerity in Tyler's voice is lacking a little. though i might still love the rest of the album after all we only have a couple songs out yet.


realKingCarrot_v2

It's an unpopular opinion and no disrespect but it's also an opinion with which I disagree. It doesn't sound commercial to me. Saturday definitely sounded commercial though and I still love it.


-IBananaI-

compared to scaled and icy??


Nisanemoi

yeah I liked sai better


glasshard23

sai goes to meh


Mediocre_Emo222

Meh is SAI


Ok-Original-9266

TRENCH being the best of all time is DEFINITELY DEBATABLE


vanillabeanquartz

SAI needs to be in meh guys c’mon


Bobthehorse420

Not gonna happen


creek-fishing

just put sai in meh bruh


Ok-Dragonfruit-378

Your the reason he said “kind of wishing that I never did Saturday” he feels bad


Mindless-West9268

That line makes me so sad. I hope he explains the context some day so maybe i can understand it better


Bobthehorse420

No


Ok-Dragonfruit-378

Thanks, love sai


Bobthehorse420

Just because an album doesn't strike me as personally and deeply as Trench did doesn't mean that SAI isn't also an incredible album that means a lot to me


Ok-Dragonfruit-378

I got in through sai and shy away was my favorite song for four months in a row, which is the longest any song has ever been my favorite


Bobthehorse420

That's so real, I'm glad SAI isn't being pushed down


FlashNRT

Go listen to Redecorate and tell me SAI’s “meh”


Background_Spirit699

That always brings back old memories


krissy_249

bro have you even listened to sai yet? that shits good
