The overall story of Tyler, the Creator's newest album, IGOR, is something many have lived through: You fall for someone. They reciprocate but refuse to go all-in. So you exist in limbo, waiting on them to bring you heaven or send you to hell. Consumed by the lack of closure, you wallow, you hurt, you rage. But. Eventually. You come to your senses and move on. Welcome to "IGOR: Tyler's Gothic Romance." These are the vital details for understanding the album—studied, analyzed, deconstructed, dissected, unraveled, and presented for your enjoyment.
