i'm the worst kind of bts elitist, i insist dark & wild is their best album, i brag about liking the prologue mix of butterfly better, i'm the bitch crying about how shit butter is and how "i miss when they were hip hop"
#dark & wild is so good#... man#what am i to you-- rm's vocal delivery in the latter half of the song is so goooood#danger-- she's a classic. the mv is so funny watching a bunch of teenagers in egregious eyeliner jump around but she has banger qualities#war of hormone-- this track is a crime against humanity and she's a banger while she's at it. jhope's part 😍#hip hop phile-- trust a bts song to start with an appalling beat 😭😭 i confess however i love this track#let me know-- kinda nasally i know the fandom really likes this one but eehhh . rapline is good as always tho#rain-- the spiritual successor to 13430 but more groovy. she bangs so hard. suga always whispering 'suga' before his verse 😭#cypher 3-- i like the other cypher's better this one suffers from having supreme boi on it. this has the suga bisexual line tho so W's ther#what are you doing now-- 40 seconds of groovy sounds what more do you want#could you turn off your cellphone-- A BANGER what can i say??#embarrassed/blanket kick-- this song gave us chaotic fake making out choreography#24/7=heaven-- jungkook gets a bad rep these days but boy can sing#look here-- this song is STRANGE it does not sound like a bts song at all but i still really like it#2nd grade/sophomore-- underrateedddd ass banger. the year after debut was so frustrating for them and you can really feel it in this album#do you think that makes sense?-- explain it guurrlll man i love this album#i remember when the persona album dropped i got hopeful it'd be a return to form with the intros/outros/interludes#uhmm kinda was but it was immediately followed up with butter. BUTTER. dude. BUTTER. i can't#i just have to accept at some point 2014 bts is long gone and they'll never make music like that again cry

Because of the RM New Perspective headcannon I genuinely cannot imagine anyone other than Stan singing the song
have a good day !!
AAAAAA!!!!! THIS MADE ME SMILE SO WIDE!!!!
i am like, genuinely shook, by the sheer amount of anons i get telling me that they exclusively associate new perspective with rm ( esp. since posting it embarrassed me so much that i deleted it several times??? ) or that they'd never heard it before, but now they listen to it all the time and have ravesey style brain rot??? AAAA
which!!! literally that song is such a fucking BANGER!!! like when i tell you it was my favorite song all through hs, it carried me. also yes, i'm aware my ( expensive ) taste(s) are flawless. and just like everything about it gives me ravenstan crimson dawn rm vibes? something about it being in the jennifer's body movie soundtrack, all the high highs and low lows ( i do think ravenstan's vocal range is incredible, it probably is kind of giving brendon urie but ~raspier~ ), it's ;) xxx <3
it's just The Song Ever. the rm flagship theme song, or rather, i think because if rm was ever a tv show, i'd have crimson dawn covering style be the intro...i think new perspective is the outro to every episode and might be...the acoustic version? we love a little contrast. i think about the rm tv show too much, i want to write it out.
speaking of writing stuff out tho, sometimes i kind of want to write that little new perspective headstannon scene out where raven is singing to him and kyle is getting very publically rizzed haha. we have to see the save rock fuck a rockstar tanktop and the mini skirt i fear. also jersey writing KYLE <3 really big across his collarbone n sending him out there to sign autographs with a nonexistent ass slap? iconic.
but yes, i love new perspective rem(ember) nation, omg. you guys are so cute. it also means a lot to me because my music taste sort of makes me anxious, so it makes me really excited to share something that i love/music i like and associate with the boys, with all of you and have you enjoy it and think about it also!!! <3333 ilyilyily
-uncle nina, new perspective ravesey nation

The PR strategies all weird cause whoever leaked a video of jk with woman in his house but few days later the guy came and told everyone bes got no gf? I mean he could leave it at that yet he cleared cause he was getting comments but heyy he didn't talk about video and we all know there's too many coincidences happening in that video to say he's not jk, that is him with his dog nd a woman in his apartment Period.
The RM one was Funny for me cause it was Clearly intentional there was no "accident" there. He posted because he wanted to, he deleted because people saw it and the job was done. I remember he also posted a pic where you can visibly see a cigarette 🚬 burn mark on his pant and armys caught it right away at that time so no one was surprised he smoked. Jk's cigarette scene wasn't surprising for me but armys are stupid to think it was invasion of privacy i mean to a point it was but he also knew what he was doing. They could have done more with dating rumours like click a pic of him where it's only him and the woman in the frame if they actually wanted to make a pr stunt with that rather than whatever they did. That is only if it was pr stunt otherwise we don't condemn any privacy breach. Always hoping it's the members that reveal their partners on their own than all this drama.
About the jk doing lives after live and singing all of jimin's new releases that was something else.....i wasn't surprised that he used to sing jm's songs but it was unexpected given "jikook" were no where to be seen, but the first live that he did and watched all of jimin's content was actually surprising for me. Idk what anyone else belives tho but from whatever i have seen over the years one thing i belive is jungkook loves jimin as an artist. He admires jm alot. You ask him about other members' songs he might not know it but if you ask him about jimin's songs he'll know all of it with lyrics and choreo at good level. He always watch jm when jm is rehearsing like he's always there sitting infront of jm watching him when he's performing. I mean who wouldn't that's jimin who's performing. But of course this mfkr will never admit that like he'll do for RM. I was actually expecting him to be more vocal for taehyung's album too but he was inactive a whole month when tae's album Dropped and i even saw tkkrs throwing tantrums that he never supported tae the way he did for jm etc. I mean technically tkkrs would help him for so you'd expect more for jk also given they were together the whole yr. But even when Taennie paris video came he went live few days later and was simply enjoying his lives it was when Angel pt1 was released and he was singing it, doing tiktok choreo for his betsies' songs and all. Tkkrs were disappointed then too but they always find a reason to cope so they did. He Infact that way actually showed more support towards jm than other members During his drunk live era lol. As you said it could be that he wanted fruits from both ships but then Shippers are either way going to support him, infact tkkrs needed more as tae's paris video was circulating. But we don't like it when others say jk was promoting jm cause we all know it's armys watching his lives so I'm hesitating to belive he did that for support from Shippers.
At the end i would say if jm ever does such dating rumours pr he can simply drop the hd pics and we'll be happy. He either way doens't have too many crazy y/n like the other two, and we'll get rid of shippers too. Imma throw those pics on Shippers' faces.
Them Dora bangs he had were real bad. And even with as grainy as the vid was you could still see the shape of them clear as anything so it was him lol.
Joon doing what he did honestly felt like he wanted to join in on the other member’s revealing they smoked cause he felt left out, but atp it was no longer a novelty. (for BTS)
Jk’s relationship with Jimin is difficult to decipher because it’s no doubt they’re on good terms with each other and I do agree with him holding some type of admiration for him but it’s not really akin to how he is with hobi or joon. I’d always dread when he’d go live because I knew there was always a chance he’d mention jimin in someway and that would be all it took for jimin’s report page to start posting R&Bs like rapid fire. And it’s crazy because he would be the one initiating it but jimin would still get hated on.
TH doing all that cheerleading for JK, going to his live show just for him to ghost him for his debut was 🥴 but nowadays I’ve felt like their relationship is symbiotic on that end. Like they know when to dial it up with each other to get what they want for themselves so probably didn’t mean anything to him that he didn’t.
If Jimin wants to reveal his S/O down the line he will. He’s very private so I doubt he’d make it a spectacle. Unless he gets married then there’s no way that’s not getting publicized in some way.

The Thing Is: - 1 : BALANCE.
Listening to INDIGO by RM on repeat. STILL. YUP, STILL ON THE REPEAT TRAIN 😬.
[Music is a very big part of my life and I’m MOSTLY INCAPABLE of writing without music, so I just thought I'd share what I am listening to while writing this]
–🐺–🐺–🐺–
So this is what I’d like to call an educated rant about Capulates (aka most Taekookers) and Montagues (aka some Jikookers). In fact, this is mostly a rant about the things that both “families” cause on that godforsaken bird app, which apparently we can’t live with but also can’t live without I’ll explain this more in depth in my Ted-Talk. This is a rant about BALANCE and ultimately its lack thereof. That being said, to make it all make sense, let’s begin with some context and, like I always do, let me make it relevant and personal.
Tumblr media
When it comes to Jikookers in general, I firmly believe that what I am about to talk about is known by a few, should be known by many but unfortunately is ignored/irrelevant to the vast majority and now that, THAT, is a fucking pity. One of my favourite quotes is “Patience is a virtue, Possess it if you can, Seldom found in woman, Never found in man”. Admittedly, we could stay here and argue about every single word from the Seldom to the man part of this quote, but what I’d like you to please focus on is the ”Patience is a virtue, Possess it if you can…” part. 
I used to be a very silent, and calm, person and with those traits also came an infinite amount of patience; there was a time I used to boast about my patience. Alas, what I didn't know was that Life had made up a whole shitty plan for me. Right from when I was 11 it decided that “you know what? You seem like you could handle a huge amount of different types of shit all at once, and I just so happen to have loads of shit but no place where to put it so… here! You can have some of it!” And so it was that shit was systematically piled on me constantly, and I dealt with it patiently, respectfully and with dignity until I turned 24 when something major happened to me that made me snap and I turned into the quick-to-anger adult that some may know me to be nowadays (for context, I’m in my 30s right now).
Tumblr media
The funny, but not-so-funny, thing is that when I snap I do it around those who are closest to me. Snapping has become the way I let out my true self as an unhealthy result of keeping everything bottled in for so long, which was indeed bad handling on my side, but I really didn’t know any better. It must be said though,  that when I snap, I don’t snap at my close friends (... family tho, is a different story …) what I do is let out my frustration with them, which usually goes like this: 
UNOPENED TEXT from Close Friends (CFs) (but thank god for text previews!): Gurl, how was the weekend?
ME: I see there is a text from my close friend/s, but I’m so busy and stressed that I don’t even want to open it knowing that I wouldn’t be able to either hold a proper convo or say anything positive. BUT in the back of my head I know there is a message from the important people in my life waiting: and I add unreasonable “stress”.
UNOPENED TEXT from CFs: send funny images or vocal messages.
ME: I’m still not willing to just open the message to just leave it without a reply, so I keep ignoring. But still I know the message is there, hence “stress” keeps adding.  
finally OPENED TEXT from CFs: Call me when you can or shall we meet this weekend?
So then eventually I make an effort, get out of my head ass, and make time call and …
ME: Gurl, how have you been? … yeah man I’m like super exhausted and [PROCEEDS TO ENGAGE IN THIS UNPROVOKED LONG ASS RANT ABOUT HER WEEK. LIKE REALLY LONG. LIKE A GOOD 30mins AT LEAST, which could have been avoided if I had made time through the week when they actually texted 🙃] … but enough about me, tell me all about what happened to you?
Tumblr media
Its hella hypocritic and weird but my CFs know exactly how I am, and how to handle me, and in the same way I also know how to handle their unique traits, so keeping this in mind, I try not to feel too bad about my lack of constant communication and my sudden vomiting of emotions thereafter, it's between me and them, them and me, and if you are not within our circle, you would never now and it is very frankly nobody else's business.
That being said, all things considered, I still somehow tend to be quite patient when it comes to things that are not directly related to me and I’ve also found out that I have an “interesting” amount of self-control. Just like Patience, I do think that Self-Control is a virtue. Both virtues would allow us to reach Balance which I believe is ultimately what we should be aiming for in life and how actually life works. 
Now, where am I going with this? And how does it relate to Capulets & Montagues (C&M)? Does it even relate to Jikook? Gurl, what?!
Tumblr media
… Bear with me just a little longer.
Balance. My life has been devoted to finding balance in everything, reason why I love grey so much for example (though my fav color is actually BLUE 💙). When balanced you can confidently move forward, hypothetically causing no immediate harm  and also for example not snap 😬. But what is balance? Following is the dictionary definition pertaining to this subject:
a situation in which different elements are equal or in the correct proportions.
Okay. So, the way I see it, there are 2 obvious ways you can obtain balance:
Two opposite but equal forces being applied on an object which will either cause it to stay still in a balanced stop or even move in a balanced way
The application of no force. If an object is not moving it is indeed balanced as its present situation is not altering.
And here is where we finally talk about C&M and Twitter.
Tumblr media
Capulets & Montagues respectively believe that their ship is THE ONE and they will resort to any emphasis on the ANY means necessary to battle each other and prove that they are right, be it breach of privacy of the individuals they swear they love and respect, or complete lack of common sense, YOU NAME IT!, if it assures them a winning tweet for the day; they will use it.
Have you noticed how, even though I call them Capulets and Montagues, I do not refer to JK & JM as Romeo & Juliet? They are in a difficult environment, for sure, but I do not believe that their story must end in tragedy. Basically I do not believe them to be star-crossed lovers. HOWEVER most Taekookers and some Jikookers do believe that. C&M are living within the  wrong story, so to say, as in, this is really  NOT Romeo & Juliet but they unprovoked decided that this IS Romeo & Juliet: Do I make sense? But how to blame them? Most Taekookers and some Jikookers are exactly like Capulets and Montagues and like all similarly belligerent parties before them: Blind with nonsensical rage and motivated by misplaced righteousness. 
On a weekly basis Capulates will “find” something damning about Taekook and taunt Montagues about it. Montagues will try if possible to debunk it, hence starting a fight. The following day, Montagues will “discover” their version of something damning about Jikook and taunt Capulets. Capulets will try their very best to debunk it while starting a fight. Oh and solo THV, PJM and JJK will also add to the mix just to add some flare to the already flabbergastingly stupid occurance. All the while, they all will be intently ignoring and completely not caring about this very damning fact: Taehyung loves Jungkook & Jimin, Jungkook loves Taehung & Jimin and Jimin loves Taehyung & Jungkook in ways THEY ONLY KNOW and it is very frankly none of our business.
Tumblr media
At this point this might make you recall a couple of things I wrote a couple of paragraphs earlier … such as, yes, BALANCE; a situation in which different elements are equal or in the correct proportions. Capulets & Montagues. One attacks, the other counterattacks and viceversa over and over again, like a very malicious and impeccably accurate Newton’s cradle.The only way to stop ANY Newton’s cradle, would be an external force causing it to stop. A full stop. 
In the C&M case, this full stop would have to come from VMinKook and they would have  to come out and state: “This is how things are…”. However, not only it is absolutely not their requirement to do so, but given that this hasn’t happened yet, we can respectfully deduce that either they can’t currently expose their own current truth (which is a unfortunately a narrative favourable to both C&M alike… ) or that they don’t really care about C&M fights, which I wouldn’t blame them for either.
Tumblr media
Now, if you follow me, you know where I stand, right? You know that I do think that there might be something going on between JK and JM, right? So my belief is that this Newton’s Cradle is also being perhaps unwillingly kept in motion by the fact that currently JK & JM as well as Tae are righteously keeping very much to themselves, like I’ve explained in the Loud Art of Silence . There’s been a bit of a change in the VMinKook dynamics since 2019 hasn’t it? Taekook had a heart-to-heart during In The Soop in 2020 after which they successfully started mending the awkward tension in their relationship.
dailymotion
As for Jikook, other than Big Hit/HYBE, group, subgroup and birthday lives, they haven’t been sharing much with us have they? Yet every time we get a glimpse at them, say during concerts or awards ceremonies, they act and interact as we’ve known them to, so one could conclude that it took them a good 6 years but they’ve seemingly finally transitioned into being more private about their relationship. Good for them, truly, applaud them for that but Montagues … Montagues are really not about that life: If Jikook keeps shit to themselves, how are they going to win their weekly Twitter Battles? And mind you this has nothing to do with those Jikookers who rectifyi facts that Capulets constantly go around distorting, which also happens on a daily basis on this blasted bird app.
Tumblr media
You know what happened in my brain when I realised that the Boys were gonna go and serve in the military? Aside from the ugly AF crying I realised and accepted that we would most likely get nothing new from Jikook until 2025 when they would all be back together and would supposedly no longer owe anything to any greater entity. This was when I also realised that I would have to be really patient and apply a lot of self-control. I realised that I would miss Jikook interacting, I would miss that a lot, but there would be nothing I could do about it. 
Until 2025 the C&M Twitter Balance will keep balancing and that is just a fact. “Well then bitch stay away from Twitter!” I would, trust me, I wish I could, but the reality is that the bird app is unfortunately the place where you get ANY news in the timeliest of manners and from there it is a battle to figure out veracity of said information. At the end of the day information is power and what you decide to do, as well as not to do, with it also defines character.
Tumblr media
Until 2025 patience, self-control and balance, in all their forms are going to be key. As well as constantly reminding oneself that regardless of our beliefs, feelings and speculations Jikook are not a confirmed couple and they owe us nothing. However, y’all best believe that nothing lasts forever, and these are grown ass men, so when they’ll be out of the military their chapter 3 will start and most likely big changes in their lives will also follow and then, right about then, we will get that heavy-ass-hammer-fall-full-stop to the C&M Twitter Balance which might still continue with the deeply cray-cray part of the fandom, right then, truths will be revealed and we will have to accept them. So until then let’s keep reminiscing gratefully and accepting whatever we are given graciously.
… Until then, always respectfully yours 💜💛🫰🏾

That's Jimin×Taeyang Collab rumor got both fandoms crying lmao
I hope it's true tho... he was someone jimin had looked upto and I would love to see both main dancers to a choreo song !!
And considering jimin was the only member invited to Bigbang docu screening back in time he must be close with T and the rest
Also saw this and I hope its true🤞

Really don’t know how to feel about it. This group makes my skin crawl. You can’t tell me the others didn’t know what Seungri was doing. I know Jimin is a fan and seemed in good relationship with these men. I always side eyed him because of it, but because he stopped interacting publicly at least with them I thought he is no longer associates himself with them. Just to see this.
Alright, this needs to be unpacked.
As far as I know, only Seungri was convicted for what he did, so why would the people that are associated with him, including coworkers such as Taeyang, be judged? Especially since he hasn't done anything of the sort? Because if we are to apply this logic, then we should judge a lot more people which once again, puts us in the position of the moral inquisition, as if we're all morally superior. Which I guess it's easy when we do this in internet discourse. This is not on the same scale and situation, but as much as I personally side-eye Bogum and his religious extremism, I don't actually believe that in association, Tae is exactly like that. Or if he is, those views did not rise to the surface. But ultimately, regardless of who they are, what they do, I can't stop you or make you change your mind because it's your choice and right to do so, but I'm perfectly aware how these stances came to be in online spaces. So I don't agree with it, but I get it. Also, no one sent me any similar complaints when Taeyang was at Hobi's listening party and how him and RM took a photo together. Or how Hobi clearly hangs out with groups that G-Dragon is part of. Was the moral police on vacation back then? Lastly, just because someone is not seen in public with another person, doesn't mean they can't have any sort of relationship. It could be simply professional.
My advice to anyone who hates or dislikes artists because somehow they wronged BTS in Army's views, to prepare themselves to either adapt, or stop with the imaginary conflicts. Because it's ridiculous and pathetic to bring out something that happened in 2015-2016, when in present day, BTS has no fucking issue. Army fighting with VIP and vice versa is dumb fandom drama, but hating group members and calling them irrelevant, fossils, bad singers, etc., while Jimin and Taeyang clearly want to work together if this rumor has any truth to it. So, what the actual fuck?
And now to answer the first anon, I am excited. Seeing the fandoms crying is annoying, but also satisfying because clearly they have no say in this, but they keep acting stupid. Let them cry, I really hope the collab is real and is happening. I was so tired of the Chris Martins and the Charlie Puths, that this one might be a breath of fresh air. Similar to what Yoongi did with Psy, which was clearly a successful collab. We know Jimin was a fan of Taeyang since his rookie days and for those who say that Taeyang needs Jimin to be relevant and to get some attention, is clearly an army that doesn't know their kpop history because for them kpop is only BTS.
And in doing that, they fail to understand how huge this thing is. And if they could leave their hate aside, they would see that Taeyang and Jimin can be such a good match vocally. They have the range and it could result in something really good. Either a ballad, or a song for fucking. I hope it's the latter, but I'll take anything, lol. And if they do only one live performance, I'll be happy. I really want to see them both on a stage, with or without a choreo. Rookie Jimin could only dream of this. And now it's (possibly) happening.
And if all this is nothing but a rumor, at least we get to entertain the idea for a few days.

Looking at jm’s tracklist for FACE got me really surprised because the a lot of producers that posted pics with him aren’t on there (except for pdogg ofc lol)… it got me wondering if jm’s has plans on releasing whatever they worked on down the line if it wasnt scrapped… really glad abt the credit though because not only does it seem like FACE is fully in house project but we got Rm writing too (minimoni collab 💜💜💜) and most especially JM has writing credits on all of the tracks except for interlude!!! jm worked really hard and judging from the snippets we heard from the behind video, I know I’m gonna fall in love at first listen… sad that there’s no yoonmin tho, altho set me free pt 2 is potentially a callback for d2 interlude set me free. I’m looking forward to JM’s spin on it!! Some people are disappointed that the album is gonna be short but tbh jm has the least experience in writing/producing his own solo songs so I wasn’t surprised but i know for sure they’ll be quality tracks because of his historg of producing bangers. I had also been guessing that jm will be doing full promo and seeing that he has an eng vers for a track makes me certain that there are plans for us promo too!
Ive been laughing at your reply to the anon abt FACE all day bpp but it also has me delulu that maybe he’ll release a makeup line because that man can definitely sell out just from his face alone and the colors for the album itself def very similar to what brands are releasing these days… army twt def makes me delulu with all the edits too… like didnt nwjns release some kind of limited ed bag for their debut album??? imagine if one of the tannies did that…
*
Ask 2: addtnl bec i accidentally pressed the button to send the ask without finishing
seeing pdogg in the credits for FACE tho makes me kind of wary that he’ll have jm use his higher register again but seeing that this is jm’s solo album and they dont have to worry abt his voice harmonizing with the rest of the members to make tracks that work i am very hopful that we’ll hear jm’s lower register more…
i’m hoping that at least one of the dance performance will have him doing some pole work too… maybe not the whole song but like a segment of it… i’ve been watching a lot of pole dance videos and there’s a lot of beauty that can be created in it it’s truly an art form too and jm has the muscle strength to execute those moves perfectly too… i really cant wait for march!!!!

Hi Anon,
I loved reading this. Thanks for taking the time to lay out your thoughts so fully. But before anything else, and because I've seen this in a few places, I want to start off with one thing:
"Looking at jm’s tracklist for FACE got me really surprised because the a lot of producers that posted pics with him aren’t on there (except for pdogg ofc lol)"
It's possible those people still worked on the album. Visiting another producer can serve a myriad of purposes - those producers could have worked on the arrangement, Jimin could've used their sound engineers, recorded vocals in their studios for processing, etc. It's also possible you're right and these were initial meetings to discuss ideas and establish a relationship on which Jimin can leverage for his later music. But I'm saying this to point out we haven't seen the full credits yet. Pdogg as main producer and Jimin working with RM who has supported every solo venture Jimin has ever done, is obvious too, but we won't see the full credits until the album is out.
As for the make-up line, I think I've been saying forever that in my head, Jimin already has a fragrance house. What I want for Jimin is for him to delve headfirst into releasing a whole line of perfumes (sorry, make-up lovers). I know he loves flowers but for some reason, I imagine he smells more gourmand and musky with a hint of citrus and chypre, rather than floral scents. But yes just his face alone on any sort of palette would sell it out instantaneously lmao.
I think we're also getting a standard BTS cardboard album packaging lol. NewJeans is under Ador, not under BigHit, and we know that Ador and BigHit are fully independent sub-labels under HYBE, meaning what NewJeans does has zero bearing on anything BigHit does... for better or worse.
Your mention of pole dancing reminded me of that edit that dropped after Jimin mentioned wanting to do it for a Run episode.
youtube
(This non-Jimin is doing such a superb job)
*
Yes let's have Jimin in a skintight mesh piece showing off his full back tattoos doing an inverted crucifix move with black hair and black nails. All our synapses will misfire (and this likely has an 80% of not happening), but after writing out my own outlandish wish list for PJM1 (now, FACE), who am I to say nay?
I'm not the type to analyze album covers, concept photos, or even album/song descriptions so I don't have much to say right now, until I actually hear the music. After the initial excitement, I'm now stuck in this 'let's wait and see' limbo, but I do have certainty about one thing:
Jimin is coming to fuck all of us up.

Album Review: GUT - Odour of Torture (1995)
this ones gonna be long bc theres a lot to say abt it. do read it tho
Gut is a goated band in... a certain grindcore subgenre which i do not feel like naming but im sure one could guess after looking at their lyrical content... this is their first full length album and best work in my opinion, but how good is their best?
The first thing that grabs attention on this album is the use of samples. After 2 back to back p*rn samples on the first and second tracks on the album (Woundfuck and Perpetual Sp*rm Ej*culation), one realizes that this is going to be a theme for the project. and indeed it is. I haven't been counting but over the course of my most recent listenthrough of this album (I'm about 42 minutes in as of writing this part of the review) most of, if not all of the tracks have some kind of sample. these range from horror movie clips, to p*rn clips, to just random noises, and also helped establish a norm for this subgenre of grind. I think they add to the atmosphere, ik a lot of ppl hate them, but either way, at least theyre short.
The next thing that tends to come up when I discuss this project with my weirdo friends is the vocals. a lot of ppl HATE the vocals on this album, which i completely understand as I did too upon first hearing this. I got into the second track and heard what sounded like a hobbit being waterboarded and immediately turned it off, as most reasonable people would. But overtime, theyve grown on me. in fact, i think the unique vocals r one of Gut's strong points. Unlike most grind bands, which tend to focus on one or 2 main vocal techniques, Gut's vocalist does a LOT. from deep pitch shifted gurgles to death growls, to the aforementioned hobbit waterboarding noises, this album is a multi-tooled vocal ASSAULT and i think it works rly well in the bands favor, especially when it sounds like hes shredding his throat with his shitty technique /gen.
The songwriting is after. This album doesn't get stale, and it isnt too samey, but it still feels consistent and has a solid atmosphere through out the entire thing. This album is like the musical equivalent of being trapped in a sex dungeon, but in a good way and not in the horrible trauma way of the real thing. Every song is distinct from the other, except for maybe the several filler tracks which are usually only 10-30 seconds long and usually only have a sample, a simple drum beat, and a single riff which repeats the entire time. The full-length tracks on this album are all sick and great in their own ways.
A quick nod to the production, the guitars sound GREAT, very muddy and washed out, and the drums compliment them perfectly, crisp and snappy without sounding too processes. Really just a great production job overall. This album feels dirty and claustrophobic, and while most of that is due to the songwriting, the production compliments it perfectly to create an album that i feel like i need to shower after listening to.
95/100
Standout tracks: Woundfuck, Vomitorium of Maggot Infested... , Consequence, The Taboo Room (really all of them r standout, but these came to mind first. please listen to this album)

I need a moment after watching and listening to "RM Live in New York @ Dia Beacon" video
The aesthetic tho and Namjoon's live vocals...
Tumblr media
'No.2 (with parkjiyoon)' is my favorite track by the way
I love 'Indigo' album 🫶🏻

Tag game!
List your top 10 biases and answer some questions about them. ♡
tagged by: @joon-rkive thank you~ ^^
(this is gonna be long so i continue under the cut right away xD)
ok i thought a bit on how to do this and quickly decided to take my ult (Chanyeol) and my ult group (EXO) out of this completely bc i wouldn't be able to decide on anything lol and i am talking about them all the time on here anyway. so i thought i'd make space for idols/biases i like but don't talk about as often xD and those would be *drum roll*:
Bang Chan from Stray Kids
Han from Stray Kids
Taeyong from NCT
Seulgi from Red Velvet (it was either her or Wendy but Selugi just wrecked me with her solo album so it's her xD)
JiU from Dreamcatcher
Mingi from Ateez
Yuqi from (G)i-dle
Giselle from Aespa
Suga from BTS (it was either him or RM but my gut said yoongi so who am i to question that-)
Rosé from Blackpink (i am not the biggest Blackpink fan, really, i just love her-)
and here are the questions:
🎃 Between 1&4 who would you rather kiss?
Chan vs. Seulgi
* first crisis* both :) Chan a goodnight-kiss, Seulgi a welcome-home-kiss ^~^
🎃 Between 2&7 who would be your best friend?
Han vs. Yuqi
* second crisis* i would love to be friends with both but in the end i think Jisung and i would be closer friends
🎃 Between 5&10 who has the better voice?
Jiu vs. Rosie
this is hard because they have very different colours in their voices. Minji's voice is crystal clear but Chaeyoung has a lot of character in her voice and a little pain too. i'll choose Chaeyoung here just for how she sounds on the solo album she has in my head :')
🎃 Between 1&8 who is the funniest?
Chan vs. Giselle
mhh i think Chan but he's had a lot more opportunities to be funny too. xD both are funny in their own way tho.
🎃 Between 6&9 who would you date?
Mingi vs. Yoongi
ajdhjw battle of the introverts xD both of them really. (where is the chanyeol option when you need it-)
🎃 Between 9&10 who would you do a collaboration with?
Yoongi vs. Rosie
Yoongiiiii 10000% - Chaeyoung would sing me against the wall lol - nothing better than a good ol' vocal/rap-collab, am i right? xD
🎃 Between 4&8 who is the better dancer?
Seulgi vs. Giselle
Seulgi for sure! not that i have a single clue about dancing but she has much more experience and practice and that must count for something
🎃 Between 3&5 who would you most likely marry?
Taeyong vs. Jiu
Minji. she'd be the most sweet and caring wife ever. ♡ Tyong would be caring too ofc but yk he has 21 kids to look after and i really don't want to add myself to the bunch xD
🎃 Between 1&7 who would you nurse when they are sick?
Chan vs. Yuqi
Yuqi. only bc Chan wouldn't tell me he's sick and i would want to slap him a little for that. :')
🎃 Between 2&3 who has the better smile?
Han vs. Taeyong
Tumblr media
quokka.
🎃 Between 6&8 who would you vacation with?
Mingi vs. Giselle
Aeriiii~ no particular reason, i just think she'd be a really fun companion to have. we are very, very close in age too and have similar interests i guess, so i think we could spend a very good time together ^^
i tag: i dunno, anyone who wants to join in i guess? i am not sure who of my mutuals could pick ten different idols for that, so just feel tagged if you see this xD

Namjoon- Idk I might be reading too much into it but -probably implied that JMs album might have an r&b sound bcuz when they were teasing him abt the yg feature on his songs RM went " u can have yg sing Daechebukka in an r&b style "
Idk but I ssrly would love to listen JMs vocals in an R&B song something that is similar to Zayn, H.E.R, sza others💫
I cant wait for his album and Jins they're the two I'm most curious about !!
And apparently everyone else too considering the Billboard poll results abt the same lol
Also do u think the boys will now take on solo brand deals like Kai, BP, etc if they do how do u think JM will handle his Insta then cuz artists use their igs mostly for this ...?!
Of course I've always wanted to hear and see more from Jimin but I've never really considered a solo album until now. And when I think about what he could do... My mind goes blank. Blank because I think he can do almost anything😭 I seriously don't know what to expect.
Tumblr media
So, yes I have to say that bias aside, Jimin's project is the one I'm most excited about, for one specific reason: the element of surprise. All of the songs he's put out so far, which yeah are barely a few, but they're all so different from each other. No song is similar to the other, not even in theme. He doesn't even write about one thing in particular. It's exciting. I think it's good for artists to have like a trademark sound that people can listen to and say "oh, this is **** song", but I think Jimin's trademark element is his voice. It's different and recognizable.
I wanted to talk about how his verses sound different in every song in BE, I remember there was a compilation out there somewhere on twitter but I couldn't find it. I found this tweet tho lmao 😭
Tumblr media
I would also love to listen to him in an R&B track. Also listen to him singing in his lower range, the way he did in the first BTS albums. As I'm typing this I can't stop thinking about love is not over. It would be amazing if he could bring back some of that. I actually think he might do it.
(I had to listen to it and why did JK voice sound more mature in this song than now? T_T) ((I also can't believe that fans, knowing the music they used to do, thought butter and ptd and even yet to come were things BTS geniunely wanted to do and were happy about... c'mon now... the way the fandom chose to be blind to all of it)).
Yeah, I think they might start taking solo deals. Fashion is decent promo and big money, so yes. I hope they're wise with that tho. Dunno about Jimin and instagram :( I guess we'll see.

I just watched the bts tma performance because I was curious and I just gotta say they really, really aren't a sit down/stand there and sing type of group because not only was it incredibly boring but it also made a lot of their flaws super obvious. V sounded awful, Idk wtf happened to his voice but it just sounded so bad I couldn't help but cringe listening to it. Jin was okay, he's never been a great singer but he's improved enough where he's not bad. Jimin pleasantly surprised me, usually its his voice that makes me cringe but I think those vocal lessons he mentioned are paying off, if he keeps it up he might actually sound good when his solo comes out. JK sounded good, that's it, there's no real improvement in his vocals but no decline either. Rapline was fine, Hobi's performance was the best, RM was alright, and Suga was disappointing tho. Overall, a 4/10 mediocre performance, especially from an almost 10 year old group.
this is helpful for anyone that missed the performance but doesn't wanna watch it - like me! thanks!

✿•*`¨*`•.¸✯≫ Jung Jae-Heon/Cha Hyun-Su
\Half canon/half No Monster AU/
Canon
-❀•≫ Humm okay once again I may have went a bit out of canon for this one but I strongly believe we were robbed 👍 still not over this betrayal !!
-❀•≫ Like. They actually have more things in common than what we first see. Struggling with harmful behavior for themselves ? Past depression for Jae-Heon ? (He was an alcoholic, he was probably not ok at all at some point of his life) They're also both pretty much socially awkward despite being really caring people and quite sacrifical when it comes to their closed ones. What I'm trying to say is that they could understand each other and support each other with their negative experiences.
-❀•≫ Jae-Heon was more into protecting Hyun-Su than most of the people in the building. Even tho he never vocally said he was against it (except that one time when Hyun-Su saved them, he said "What was the point of saving him if we just lock him up again") he never really was into Eun-Hyeok's methods and defended Hyun-Su against Ji-Su when she threatened him with her bat, despite Hyun-Su being spotted as an infected one
-❀•≫ Hyun-Su also cried two times I believe : at Du-Sik's death, and Jae-Heon's death. It felt genuinely heartbreaking, seeing him trying his best to get to him and seeing him die without being able to do anything. Probably one of the best scenes in my opinion ! I want to believe he really cared about him, being his first support along with Du-Sik
-❀•≫ I'm genuinely kinda mad they didn't deepen their friendship that much ? But honestly Jae-Heon was underdevelloped when it comes to some of his friendships 😭 I'm sorry but I just know he would have went to eat with Sang-Wook, Hyun-Su and Gil-Seob if only the scenarist have let him 💀
-❀•≫ Anyway they're just ! Really dear to me ! They're two of my favs characters in that hell of a show, and I would have loved to see them interact more 💔
AU hcs :
-❀•≫ Jae-Heon would cook some healthy food for Hyun-Su so he can eat something else than cheap ramyeons.
-❀•≫ Hyun-Su never takes alcohol in restaurants, bars, etc, when Jae-Heon is around as a support symbol ! (Not like it's really hard for him anyway, he's not that much of a fan)
-❀•≫ I think Jae-Heon is pretty sporty, and he's probably the kind to run the sunday. After Hyun-Su started to feel a bit better about going outside and all, he proposed him to go run together, they tend to go grab a nice meal together after the run
-❀•≫ They support each other a lot in their recovery ! They always hype up the other every month they're clean from alcohol from one and self h*rm for the other
-❀•≫ They're often silent but not in the awkward way of silence (like, Hyun-Su and Eun-Hyeok) it's more of a comfortable silence they both enjoy

Hi can you do bts reaction to their someone crying ? Thank you 💜
sure bae !!
jin :
when he finds them crying he will slowly approach them and hold their hands asking what's wrong,,, he listen carefully to their problems and after he'll comfort them and tell them that they are stronger than this and that he's with them no matter what,,,he'll try to make them smile once again by saying witty and funny things.
rm :
he'll first observe the situation carefully and then run to his s/o asking why are they crying , he'll hold them in his arms and stroke their back and let them cry their heart out on his shoulder. he will be the shoulder they'll need to cry on.
Suga :
he's someone who'll get emotional with them,,, yeah he will I see him picking up his s/o's feelings very fast. he'll go sit with them and he'll just quietly let them cry not saying anything afraid he'll say something wrong and hurt them so he'll just quietly comfort them hugging them close.
jhope
nooo he'll be soo saddd..... he'll even get teary seeing his s/o cry bc he's very emotional and he shows his emotions clearly. he will go and squueze them into his arms and stay there until they stop crying and then he'll start telling his s/o how much he loves them and how they make him soo happyy.
jimin :
the person who made his s/o cry better be ready for death!!!! seriously tho he will kill anyone who make his s/o cry. he will hold them and wipe their years, he doesn't gets vocal about it but it hurts him seeing his s/o like that. he will comfort them and he may even make love with them specially that night to make them know that they are special.
Taehyung :
he will not know how to act at first but he slowly will observe the situation and just like namjoon hold his s/o give them the shoulder to cry,,, I think taehyung's reaction also depends on how much deep his relationship is with his s/o if its super deep then he may become emotional with them too. if his relationship is not that deep then he might just not feel that emotional but still try to connect with them.
Jungkook :
just like taehyung he doesn't know how to act either, you see jungkook can become clueless at times but as soon as he grasps the situation jis first instinct would be to comfort his s/o and make them stop crying. he will not ask why they were crying until later. his focus on making his s/o stop crying first and then asking why they were crying and he will really try to solve their problem no matter what !!!
I hope you liked it !! if you want you can request more things!! ❤❤

Lemme write another think piece chile.
Tumblr media
Y’all this one is about my favorite BTS songs because I have the time.
My time
Y’all need to give Jungkook his flowers for this one. This man made one of the best songs ‘Map Of The Soul: 7’ say what you want about the album but this is one of the best solo songs out of all the members and that’s just the truth. I can’t make the song not sound as excellent as it does.
(Also lil side note: most of BTS’s best work is in Map Of the Soul: 7 in my opinion)
Black Swan
Jin deserves an Emmy for his performance in this video. Say what you want this song is master work and is in fact the best song on the album. I would’ve said My Time but it’s a solo so I can’t do that so this is this song shall take the top 1 spot.
Filter
Park Ji Min did exactly what he needed to do with this one. In my eyes (with my glasss on of course) this NEEDED I repeat NEEDED a video Idk why it ain’t get one but if I get involved there will be a music video.
Jump
Taehyung’s verse.
Paradise
The instrumental is what does it for me everytime, like the song hits everytime ain’t nothing I can do about that.
Airplane (JHope)
Once I find out why this song isn’t talked about as much as it deserves I will intervene. This songs production is PERFECT wow. Like I went on a walk for like 2 hours and this song was one of the songs I played most. This song is simply amazing.
내 방을 여행하 법 (Fly to my room)
Best song on BE 🤷🏾‍♀️ say what you want it’s simply the truth I can’t change it. JIMIN’S high note is something for the books. Taehyung singing most of the song really does it for me.
UGH!
The best rap song I’ve heard by them. The best verse has to go to J Hope because of the creativity he displayed in his last verse. I love Suga’s verse tho because of how VICIOUS he sounds. But RM sounds like a super villain and it will always sounds amazing to me. They sounds so vicious, I love it so much. AHEM
House of cards
They were in their RnB bag, yup. This song sounds like “secs appeal” and we need to address it because it needs to be said. I need some more RnB music from them (Jungkook, JiMin and Taehyung specifically)
JAMAIS VU
I will NEVER forgive all the stans that didn’t tell me about this song. Y’all I heard this and cried almost immediately. Why was y’all holing out on me? Why? What was the purpose? Because the is is one of my top 5 songs by them. Some of their best vocals. Seokjin deserves his flowers.
소우주 (mikrokosmos)
One of their best “sad pop” songs. It makes me feel nostalgic and happy at the same time and I can’t explain it like it’s so happy but I feel cold and sad but somehow happy when I hear it. I love it sooo much.
Home
This is the song that made me go to the search bar and put them in my library and I’m so thankful that Beyoncé edit. Everyday I’m so thankful for it because I wouldn’t have gotten into them when I did without it.
00:00
I have no reason I just like this song.
IDOL ft. Nicki Minaj
Knowing that Nicki Minaj and BTS have interacted makes me feel happy about the song.
Anpanman
Simply just a banger ain’t nothing I can say about it.
Singularity
In his RnB fendi bag. Taehyung voice is sooo perfect for this type of RnB like they need to give him more solo’s and more RnB songs cause this was a serve. Deserves to be talked about more.
Serendipity
His vocals are breathtaking and stunning. A vocalist.
All night Ft. Juice Wrld
The song is vibe and Juice wrld’s verse is the reason I love the song. It needed more promo in my opinion because I didn’t hear any talk about it when it came out. Rip Juice Wrld ❤️
Blood Sweat and Tears
The song that introduced me into BTS and Kpop as a whole. I remember in 2016 I watched “iiSuperwomanii” react to this song and I liked the song but didn’t get into BTS until later and I regretted so much. The music video for this song is also amazing.
Telepathy
Now I understand how y’all might call this the best but in my eyes no one doing what fly to my room is doing ain’t nothing I can do about it.
Magic shop
They in their pop bag with this one. They need to do more songs like it.
Begin
Jungkook has no bad solos 😌🤷🏾‍♀️ it’s simply the truth.
That is the end of my favorite BTS songs that they have released so far. Wishing BTS the best in the future! ❤️🤍
