So... Dua Lipa was replaced by Jhene Aiko. Oh! Hm, that's interesting.

So their supposed collab with Charlie Puth was just a rumour? From BillboardAnother single to be released in time for the album release?

Looks like Smallpools had something to do with "Break Up Every Night". Unless they just randomly pointed out a track lol. I assume Sean (the lead singer of Smallpools) wrote on it. Just found out that The Chainsmokers remixed a Smallpools track.

Just found out that The Chainsmokers remixed a Smallpools track. Yeah, "Dreaming" was one of The Chainsmokers' first prolific remixes! I really hope to hear Sean's voice on a Chainsmokers song. ETA: Oh, it has been confirmed that Smallpools have a hand in the writing, with Captain Cuts co-producing and co-writing the track. I really hope it's Sean's vocals now lol.

Ugh, I'm so disappointed that Smallpools aren't on vocals for "Break Up Every Night". That one is pretty good though. Drew does sound better on it versus some of the other songs he sings on.

Bloodstream Don't Say It Won't Kill Ya Honest Wake Up Alone
Nothing as relentless as DLMD or Closer on the album for me but the handful of catchy tunes I did like will definitely be in my rotation for a while.

...I forgot this comes out tonight.
Shows how much of an impression The Chainsmokers have made on me.

Don't Say and Wake Up Alone are the only two songs that I could get through on the album.

This album is kind of a disappointment. I thought that the three songs they released before were all great but most of tracks on the album are kind of mediocre to me. "Last Day Alive" is actually pretty good but it's not a single material. I like "Break Up Every Day", it's definetely the most upbeat song on the album. "Bloodstream" is ok, "Honest" is ok... The rest feels kind of forgettable, at least for now.

None of the tracks on the album reach the heights of Roses/Don't Let Me Down/Closer. "Paris" and "Something Just Like This" are definitely highlights, which is sad considering they were already second-rate compared to the aforementioned trifecta of hits.

Bleh such an underwhelmingly bad album, it's just so generic and already done And nothing really just has a value of interest on it, kinda why I prefer other EDM/Dance/Electropop artists like Clean Bandit & Martin Garrix
This is gonna really just reach #1 on the Billboard 200 cause of name value, hopefully it doesn't end up being one that actually stays at the top spots for a long time. But I'm afraid that is exactly whats going to happen

The album was okay. It felt like a lot of filler. I don't see many surefire single options here.

This album was super disappointing. "Break Up Every Night" and "Young" are their only other potential big singles. Mark it.

Lol he needs to learn how to lip synch. I get he's not a singer, but c'mon dude. I was drunk and thought it was a sloppy rehearsal.

Even though I liked two of the solo tracks, I still laugh at how painfully flat his voice is and his balls to actually sing on tracks alone. They definitely should've stuck to their original guns of singles/EPs only.

Gave the album a curiosity spin and it was a huge dissapointment. I've liked all of their singles post Roses, but there are no gems on the album aside from the already released two singles.

Break Up and Young will probably be big hits.

"Break Up Every Night" is a legit bop.

There is nothing notable on the album aside from Break Up Every Night from the new tracks. It reminds me of One Direction a good amount.

I'd rather listen to more life than this. Not even halfway through the album yet. Stopped at something just like this and even then that's the best track on this... idek

Most albums don't get more than 2 or 3 major hits at best anyway and they already have Paris and SJLT so what did people expect? lol either way, I think they have good stuff on there and will see many more top 10s at the worst

The album is atrocious. If there's one thing that The Chainsmokers consistently gets right, it's their choices of singles. Their singles are great, the rest of their work is absolutely terrible.
