    3. You’ll Melt More!, ‘You Are The World (2015)

    (Homicidols: “You Are The World” was my personal pick for the number one spot.)

    nice, i was wondering if this one was going to rank or not


    YLMM are an extremely underrated group, to this day "You Are The World" is still one of my favorite releases of the alt idol scene, also it contains one of the most bizarre and "out there" singles

    the "Suicide, Sweet side" chorus is still iconic, not only the song its catchy but the lyrics are amazing too


    i understand that some people could find it offensive / bad taste but i think the contrast between the colorful and wholesome video coupled with the lyrics about someone that wants to commit suicide is really powerful


    definitely unique!

  • imo Pink is better than anything Dots ever put out?

    Like it doesn't reach the same highs but is such a great end-to-end listen, even at an hour long. Defo my favourite idol album atm.

    Yeah they're definitely one of the most interesting, creative and musicaly diverse acts ever in alt idol. I am curious how things will shake out with all the changes they have went through in the last few years.

    I agree Pink is a pretty excellent album. I haven't actually listened to the Dot stuff in awhile to make a comparison
