@fixmein45__ i’ve known cudi’s big songs but i can’t believe it’s taken me so long to dive deeper!! for marianas, their album ever after (2011) is my personal fave :)
sometimes an album ends with a track that feels like it’s designed to be the last song you ever hear and it’s like okay what am I supposed to do now except for just die I guess
ik “inception” definition refers to something’s beginning but i’ve seen it more recently also be used in the context of being self-contained/multi-layered and i’d love to see a study on when exactly the new usage started bc i have no doubt nolan’s inception was key
bc i distinctly remember watching brendon urie’s instagram live in 2016 when he was listening to his (then-unreleased) doab songs and commenting “brendon urie listening to himself? brendonception” and him getting mad at me for it. and that was before i had even watched inception
