Twenty One Pilots - Regional at Best (2011)
When I was about 5, the first time I ever went to the dentist (which coincidentally happened to be the day that I got "Spider-Man" for the PS1, in case anyone was curious), they gave me some sort of anesthesia for them to drill into one of my teeth. Spoiler alert: Still felt it. A dude held my hand during the process and I kept looking at him, and years later, I wonder why that's something I still remember: This guy comforting me while I was confused as shit by what was going on. I wonder what's going on with him nowadays. I hope he's doing well. Anyhow, the way I wanted to tie that story into this is that while it sounds a bit better than the previous album, it's somehow just as bland and sounds like a slightly harder version of music (well, MUZAK as it's called) that you'd hear in the dentist's office, but made worse with this whole "listen to how intellectual I am" rapping that finds its way into so many songs. I'd also like to blame me getting sick from listening to this album, but in all actuality, I know it's from those microwaved taquitos I had just shortly ago. Drats.
