    Um dos melhores álbuns do ano. Leve, bem produzido, com mensagens fortes e super bem escrito. Tyler Joseph e Josh Dun nunca decepcionam! No Chances e Redecorate são as maiores do álbum!

    Talented, brilliant, incredible, amazing, show stopping, spectacular, never the same, totally unique, completely not ever been done before, unafraid to reference or not reference, put it in a blender, sheet on it, vomeet on it, eat it, give birth to it.

    Great Album! With catchy songs like Saturday and Mulberry Street to classic sounding songs like Choker and my personal favorite, Redecorate. This album has something for everyone!

    É impressionante como esses caras são bons!!!! Conseguiram mudar de um ritmo pesado e forte (trench) pra um ritmo leve e "feliz" em Scaled and icy sem perder a essência da banda. Confesso que achava que ia ser um álbum genérico de pop, mas não!!!! Esse álbum só mostra que tem sim várias formas de se reinventar, e Twenty one pilots fez isso muito bem.

    Great album, fun, bright but it gets even better when you know the meaning behind it. Keep in mind that its not supposed to sound like twenty one pilots

    I will start by saying that this album is wonderful. "Scaled and Icy" is renewed and we can see that there are very spontaneous songs and rhythms. Twenty One Pilots never disappoints and brings new things every time. So far my favorite songs are "Good Day", "The Outside", "Saturday"... anyway they are all very good and it is difficult to choose which one is better. Congratulations guys!

    é impressionante que eles conseguiram mudar tanto o estilo de um álbum para o outro, trench um álbum extremamente pesado e nem um pouco de pop, para o scaled and icy um álbum pop e uma era super colorida, mesmo nunca perdendo sua essência

    Excellent album musically and conceptually, it confirms the theory that Twenty One Pilots is constantly evolving and creating.

    Despite it's propaganda (which I believe it must mean something in Tyler's emotions), I absolutely love this album. Bounce Man is so happy and gave a smile to my face, but No Chances and Redecorate both got me in the brink to tears, they're super emotional. Choker is full of synths, but Mulberry Street is an acoustic, piano-driven songs.

Não é apenas um álbum com um visual limpo ou batidas mais alegres, é um jogo arriscado de mudanças, toda mudança é arriscada, e eu posso dizer que valeu apena correr esse risco. Twenty One Pilots provou que são realmente os Reis do Alternativo, sendo um duo que possui uma versatilidade enorme!!! Expand

    Twenty One Pilots never disappoints when telling the story of DEMA and renewing their musical style without straying completely from its origins.

    Sem palavras, esses caras simplesmente são geniais, a cada disco novo uma nova pegada mas mantendo sua originalidade, Never take it me lembrou uma pegada de rock dos anos 80, uma obra prima. A cada musica uma vibe diferente e mantendo a qualidade, só tenho que agradecer por ter conhecido esses caras em 2016 e poder acompanha-los...

    I hereby declare Scaled and Icy a 10/10 and the album of the year. (Despite Tyler turning Saturday into a Chainsmokers song)

    Simplesmente fantástico, veio com um gênero diferente de Trench, com letras animadas.
    Twenty one Pilots, eu te amo

    Like a Maroon 5 with some vulnerability beneath the pop sheen. [Jun 2021, p.77]

    Given how much effort twenty one pilots give into their presentation, it's genuinely surprising how uninteresting Scaled and Icy sounds on the surface. ... The music itself sounds so limiting and faceless.

    It is hard to predict how faithful Twenty-one pilots fans will react. Regardless, given the time spent by Joseph and Dun on this record, this record is a triumph that marks a maturity that now eclipses their previous albums.
