Ok I watched the release party of the Vengeance saga with my friends and I have some thoughts.
It's ok. The first two songs are AMAZING, and Get in the Water is awesome, but the other songs.... they're not bad, and I definitely need to get used to them before I start judging them, but they don't compare to the other 4 saga songs, y'know?
It's still very good tho :) -
Also the same little girl who made fun of me for liking the Open Arms song walked in once the saga was over and saw me and her sister lying face down on the carpet sobbing and started giggling and i think that perfectly shows the chaos of this musical
-
Ok I talked to one of my other friends about the new album and I think I have more opinions:
It feels forced and slightly rushed. I wish I didn't hear Dangerous and Get in the Water before (I thought Get in the Water was a cut song so I figured I was ok to listen to it lmao) bc then it made me feel more underwhelmed, but that's not the album's fault, it's mine.
Charybdis should have had vocals in her song or at LEAST noise. Without it, it was just Odysseus singing, which feels lacking. It definitely doesn't help that we've been used to having lots of voices and new characters in the other sagas
Calypso's song is great, but it doesn't stick with the continuity in Love in Paradise. In Love in Paradise she makes it very clear that SHE made the spell where nobody can exit or enter her island. It's not accurate to Greek mythology, but it's ok because Epic put it's own spin on it and it works for the song. However, it makes Calypso talking about how lonely she is on the island in this new album more of a "go cry in your corner" moment instead of a "oh no I feel bad" moment. I love this song tho it's a song I would put in all of my playlists :)
The animation in Six Hundred Strike bugs me. Nothing against the animators, video game animations just aren't my thing (I don't like video games in general), and the jet pack/storm bag moment confused me. Also GODS DONT BLEED IM SO TIRED OF SEEING BLOOD ON THE GODS- it's ichor and it's gold and I think gold blood is really cool and it's a pet peeve of mine when they're shown with red blood -
That was long as hell-
I really did like this album though, it's growing on me, I just needed to get that off my chest :) -
Yesss the ichor thing-
I noticed it with Athena and was a lil confused lmao
And I agree with the Charybdis thing some monster noises would’ve been nice -
It makes me so annoyed like pookie please give them GOLD
Yeah it just felt off without it
I'm definitely being too much of a critic tho xD -
Frrrr- it could’ve been hard tho because the colour schemes for both of those songs were like blue/gray/black and the gold against that either wouldn’t have stood out or looked kinda gross- it was probably an artistic thing but then just change the colour palette lol
Pfft it’s fine man xD -
Eh, I still feel like they could've made it work... It'd be a fun contrast lol
-
Fair enough lol. Probably just an artistic preference or maybe they just didn’t know much about Greek mythology
-
Fair enough lol
-
Hot take but if a pop singer could sing Not Sorry for Loving You as a cover-
also the "let me speak" line makes me cackle every time I hear it, like girl you've been speaking phht -
Also happy Halloween we got new music from Emei, Noahfinnce, and Ethel Caine
-
GUYS the chorus for Charybdis and the chorus for storm are so similar omggggg
-
Also if Jorge doesn't make a musical for the Illiad I'll be so upset
-
Notion is such a good song lowkey
