When I think of MIKE, the words that come to mind are sincerity and honesty.
In absolutely every album MIKE has released, he poured his heart out.
On "Disco!", MIKE certainly leans into his soulful nature once again, but without getting overly consumed by it.
In the past, MIKE would really exude the depression that he was experiencing at the time, and it's not like there's anything wrong with that from a music perspective.
However, it's nice to see him continue the progression we saw on weight of the world, where he seems more at peace with where he is in life.
I see tears of joy and weight of the world as MIKE processing the death of his mother and coming to grips with the pressure and residual effects that this unfortunate event inflicted on his mind.
Whereas "Disco!" feels like MIKE beginning a new chapter in his life, reflecting on the past without LIVING in the past... which can only come from acceptance.
It doesn't mean he isn't still dealing with similar struggles, but now he is doing so with a stronger sense of presence and assuredness that is palpable.
