Dark, ambient, insightful and energetic define the sonic landscape of this intoxicating album.Opening the album with pure aggression and gusto, Mike performs a vice fueled anthem detailing a life high elation and even higher self esteem. As the album progresses, we see a more chaotic and introspective transition to self doubt and dependency. With sounds varying from auto tune filled crooning to high energy punk, the album takes a full (crash) at its end with a display of rapping skill riddled with self deprivation of any hope to live a life different than what he created. Live out this story with from start to finish, and see why one may ever choose Pain over pleasure.
