Machine Gun Kelly takes a bold new step in his musical career with ‘Tickets to My Downfall.’ Listeners will hear MGK touch on a range of topics - varying from loneliness, depression, worthlessness to success, love, and confidence. The blink-182 influence begins with their drummer, Travis Barker, who also serves as executive producer for this album. After seasons of loss, MGK’s music gradually shifted toward the rock realm as he poured more of his pain into music. Juxtapose his lyrics with catchy hooks over guitar chords and insane drum patterns, and we’re back in the early 2000’s “emo” scene. While every song has a hint of depressive lyrics, MGK still offers listeners a different type of “pop-punk” experience with a sprinkle of braggadocio bars. He details the drugs, the women, the fun times he’s having while self-sabotaging his well-being for the amusement of others. Can MGK recover from this self-inflicted crash-and-burn moment? Is it healthy for him to do so with adoring fans and skeptics in the audience? Listen in on which songs are bangers for our hosts and which ones they connect with! Make sure to check out 'Tickets to My Downfall' on all streaming services and the visual album on YouTube titled 'Downfalls High!'
