I think MMLP2s lack of that cohesion in the sense its been described here, almost makes it a more enjoyable listen. Cohesion is something i can appreciate, but theres been cases where i think it harms albums more than it helps. Of course theres always going to be cases where cohesion is done better than others. But if the individual songs are just as good if not better than something that has a more cohesive feel, but gets a lower score because of it ,just makes no sense too me.
But i think others on this forum have summed up my feelings on the subject much better than i can.
I still dont think the monster/survival belong on something called MMLP2 sonically, but i can see why theyre at the spots theyre at on the album. and i do enjoy the individual songs.
I never understand why people disregard an entire song because of one corny line, or the beat, i listen to the lyrics first. A lot of people dont have the ability to seperate between something they dont like and something that is objectively bad, so they just call it bad. I feel a lot of the hate for the monster, all stems from that beat choice.
