Beauty Behind The Madness

This Beauty Behind the Madness vinyl is an absolute treasure for any The Weeknd collector! The striking yellow and black split color vinyl perfectly complements the dark aesthetic that defined this pivotal era in Abel's career. As a super fan who's collected all of his releases, this album holds a special place in my collection. Beauty Behind the Madness represents a crucial moment in The Weeknd's evolution - the perfect balance between his underground origins and his emergence as a global superstar. Tracks like "The Hills," "Can't Feel My Face," and "Often" sound incredible on vinyl, with the analog format bringing out the richness in the production that digital streams simply can't capture. The warm sound quality highlights the intricate production details throughout the album. The bass resonates with perfect depth, and Abel's haunting vocals float through the mix with remarkable clarity. Each spin reveals new subtleties in Michael Jackson-influenced tracks that showcase why The Weeknd has become the defining voice of his generation. For collectors, this isn't just about owning music—it's about preserving a milestone album that helped redefine modern R&B and pop. The packaging quality and attention to detail make this a standout piece in any vinyl collection. If you're a dedicated Weeknd fan or simply appreciate groundbreaking artistry, this record absolutely deserves prime placement in your collection. I've played this countless times, and the experience only gets better with each listen. Highest recommendation possible!

I discovered The Weeknd a few years back before he really got very famous and I loved his beautiful songs and his very specific style. You will like him if you do enjoy a combination of infrabass rhythms and nice melodies. 1- Real life (4 stars) This is a catchy tune with the beautiful voice of the Weeknd. 2- Losers (feat. Labrinth) (4 stars) Another catchy tune with the feat of Labrinth and the brass instruments towards the end. 3- Tell your friends (5 stars) Beautiful song… Exactly what I love with him… His voice supported by a base of Bass and most of the melody coming from him. 4- Often (4 stars) Not the most memorable song but definitely in the line of TW’s production. 5- The Hills (5 stars) Another perfect combination of the Infrabasss and TW’s voice. 6- Acquainted (4 stars) Not the most memorable song but definitely in the line of TW’s production. 7- Can’t feel my face (5 stars) Another hit song from The Weeknd. 8- Shameless (4 stars) Not the most memorable song but definitely in the line of TW’s production. 9- Earned it (Fifty Shades of Grey) (5 stars) I am not sure how related it is to the movie but it sounds very good. 10- In the night (5 stars) Another hit song from The Weeknd. It is somehow reminiscent of Michael Jackson. 11- As you are (4 stars) Not the most memorable song but definitely in the line of TW’s production. 12- Dark Times (Feat Ed Sheeran) (5 stars) Nice duet between the two. 13- Prisoner (Feat Lana Del Rey) (5 stars) Another very nice duet. 14- Angel (5 stars) A great song to finish this magnificent album. In conclusion: Averaging the rating for each song gives me a score of 4.57 (rounded up to 5). Highly recommended album.

I literally love this album so much and I'm so happy I have the vinyl XO

i already know what Beauty Behind the Madness sounds like digitally, but THIS.. THIS is what it REALLY should sound like. The pictures really don’t do this vinyl justice, when you have it in person, the black fractals look 3D, it looks like it’s bouncing off the vinyl itself, it’s a little intoxicating 🥴 you can REALLY hear Abels’ voice clearly in this too, no autotune heard in this (at least i don’t think anyways) I was even surprised it came with special slips with the track list on the vinyls it slips with, very good quality slips! Buy this! it sounds amazing 😮‍💨

Love this album.

Desearía que trajera un poco más de artwork.

Arribo en excelente estado y llego antes de lo previsto, súper recomendado 🙌

Opakowanie od płyty przyszło pękniete. Nie polecam😞😞

If the publicity garnered is in any way indicative of an artist's relevance and success, then The Weeknd will soon become a household name. Following on from his No. 1 smash "Can't feel my face", and recent blazing - literally - performance at the VMAs, The Weeknd presents "Beauty behind the madness". Evidently, it is not only his most accessible set so far, but, also, a compelling crossover album. Sonically, it is a much bigger departure from his past work than most of his older fanbase would like it to be. Abel Tesfaye (real name), not the same self-destructive, depressed 20 year-old anymore, but now in a better place, is true to himself and remains consistent. The material is raw and honest, the production always on point, the lyrics still dark and cynical, the delivery mesmerising and haunting as ever. With many references to his previous work, this is hardly the watered-down generic pop album all those negative comments over the internet are speculating. Real artists are supposed not to ever sit stagnant. No legendary artist made music that sounded the same. The Weeknd is experimenting, expanding, opening himself to a new demographic. It is all about progress. He is, also, trying to become monumental. He sure has all it takes to become a contemporary megastar. In fact, with this very record he gives traditional pop a foundational makeover, one that has not happened since the times of Prince and Michael Jackson! His sound is radically different; but his message has not changed, only the way it is delivered. Still suicidal, sassy, sensual and scandalous, but always seductive and startling, The Weeknd's "Beauty..." looks set to soar.
