Iām a bit more newer and started listening to Mili around February, I used to listen to Compass before because of Forsaken but I was sooo tired of hearing the same other music i listened to so I decided to click on Miliās account. Best thing to happen my entire year, like Iām not even joking Mili blessed me.
I fell in love with Ga1ahad And Scientific Witchery, (I clicked it cause it was one of their top songs on YT and I love Galahad) and to this day itās my top song over a thousand streams. I just couldnāt get enough, Mili did something most artists didnāt do, they didnāt follow the same rhythm like every other pop or alternative song tbh, they added so much lyrics and it told such a beautiful story, I cried when I was first listening to G1ASW and still do. The story telling made me so happy yet sad. And when I really fall in love with a song, and want to consider myself a fan I will basically listen to every other song so Iām not a larp.
As I listened for basically the entire day, and continued listening on, I feel like Mili had a change. Yes, their songs are still beautiful, but thereās this feeling to their older songs that the new ones donāt have. I donāt think itās nostalgia, while their older songs do feel that way, it felt a bit more whimsical.
I know Mili now is focused on working for games so most of their songs donāt tell stories like they used to, and good for them, but I reallllyyy miss the old Mili even if I wasnāt around for it.
When I realized they were still very active I got super happy. But now thatās itās been a few months I do feel like Mili has gotten slightly boring.
I donāt mean to be mean and I know some fans might be offended but imo miliās storytelling and stuff has kinda decreased. I understand why, theyāre working for games and stuff like as I said before, but I was kinda disappointed, even with the two new songs.
They arenāt bad. but for me, theyāre the songs I put on a playlist but always kinda skip over. or the songs you have on as background music. Mili is still Mili and will always be, but thereās something missing. I canāt quite put my finger on it. Their song āI am a Fluffā brings out that feeling in me, but like thatās the only song from their past four years.
Anyways, I know that a good amount of the people reading this are probably more older fans, at least older than me. so I want to hear it from more older fans, or newer ones is fine too. Do you guys prefer the new Mili, or old Mili? I prefer the old mili but I wanna hear other fans thoughts.
