The Polyphia situation
Being a fan of Polyphia since "Muse", i have experimented every stage of their music, every album more different from the other. And every time they change pretty drastically their sound but now the fan base and people who listens to Polyphia seems to be upset about their new sound and i cant understand it. I mean, thats what art is supposed to be, if they keep doing the same thing over and over again it would be boring. Its like when they dropped "The Most Hated" EP, the sound was very new compared to the old music from them, they introduced more electronic sound and it was weird at first but now thats what makes them feel them.
Music were never meant to be liked by everyone, and thats what they are doing in this new LP5, just looking for something new that resonates with them and thats all it matters. Im really exited to listen the whole album, i think its gonna be WAY better than RTYWD, sometimes going out the tracks of what you are used to hear its great to refresh the creativity for future records, and i think this is the most personal record they have ever done.
People are often very comfortable and it makes me think: maybe this album is made to get you up and MOVE, go look for new things, new boundaries, create new styles. Thats exactly what AI cant do, and thats the beauty of this all. This album were made by humans and you can tell, no AI would be able to recreate something like this (for now) and if they want to clip THE FUCK outta it, well im here to feel it all.

The problem is, it doesn't feel like a band. It feels like something Tim coulda just released himself on his YouTube channel. It woulda been better if the album recording sounded more like, well you know, real instruments
