The third album by Electronic musician Porter Robinson.
Released July 26th, 2024. 4 singles came out to promote the album. (“Cheerleader”, “Knock Yourself Out XD”, “Russian Roulette”, and “Kitsune Maison Freestyle”.) And with the first single “Cheerleader” becoming number #1 on YouTube Trending on release and surpassing 1 Million views in the first 2 days, it was safe to say fans were eager and excited to hear his new direction.
This album (as all of Porter’s) sounds wildly different from his last body of work. Having major rock, punk, and emo influence.
From Porter: “the album that I was TRYING to write was this nonstop party - NO sincerity, ALL fun, an album that revels in absurdity for a world that rejects context. And that was the plan until I accidentally started confessing how I was really feeling.” Porter calls this his most fun, but also his most heartbreaking album to date.
The album was met with fairly positive reviews. With many fans commenting on the likes of the his unique electronic style merged with this new rock / punk sound from him. And how he expressed his natural voice across it. Unlike the use of the altered high pitched voice of his we hear all over his second album “Nurture”.
“SMILE! :D” Is truly an amazing album, and is now being backed by a world tour!
Have you heard Porter Robinson’s new album SMILE! :D? It might be my favorite from him yet!
