    the first impression is mediocre, let me try again to see whether I would change the score from 6 to higher or not. Cooped up and One night now are my fav

    This album is the complete definition of a mid album. The album in its entirety lacks any sorta creatively and just all sounds like the same post Malone on the radio for the past 5 years. Some songs sound pretty good, but the album as a whole isn’t unique or different at all. Production is good and vocals by post Malone are amazing as always

    This album definitely was a big drop in quality from his last album "Hollywood’s Bleeding" which dropped in 2019 but personally i enjoyed most of the tracks on here like the very upbeat and fantastic track "Wrapped Around Your Finger" as well as the absolute standout and pretty underrated track "Love/Hate Letter To Alcohol" which featured the band Fleet Foxes. But even tho there were someThis album definitely was a big drop in quality from his last album "Hollywood’s Bleeding" which dropped in 2019 but personally i enjoyed most of the tracks on here like the very upbeat and fantastic track "Wrapped Around Your Finger" as well as the absolute standout and pretty underrated track "Love/Hate Letter To Alcohol" which featured the band Fleet Foxes. But even tho there were some amazing tracks on here, there still were some huge stinkers in the tracklist like a track which i thought is one of Post’s worst tracks he has ever released the being the track "I Cannot be(A Sadder Song"(featuring. Gunna) and honestly i think that this track is just super corny, boring and features some plain awful verses from Post Malone. Gunna's verse on there is pretty good tho i gotta admit. So Overall this album is a Strong 6 and even tho this was more of a emotional album for Post most of the tracks on here kinda sucked ngl.… Expand

    Not my fave from Posty. There are some good moments on here but it’s generally underwhelming from what we’ve come to expect

    While the rap-preferring fans will still gravitate to his first two efforts, listeners with an appreciative ear for his genre-sampling maturation into the mainstream will find Twelve Carat Toothache to be a fascinating emotional exploration of a conflicted artist who can't help but churn out star-making hits at the expense of his own happiness.

    “Twelve Carat Toothache” doesn’t reveal a new facet of Austin Post, it just shines an even brighter light on the jewels that he drops.

    It is arguably his most sonically interesting and personal project so far, but its inconsistency punches a few pot-holes in the listening journey. The experimentation here doesn’t always work, but when it does, it shows that Post is heading in some exciting directions for future albums.
