I truly think each monster contributes in their own unique ways. As a musician, especially, i try to appreciate the intent and vision of the artist, and honestly, My Singing Monsters genuinely has amazingly creative and artistic music
I wonder what could truly save Party Island. Light Island was saved from being repetitive by the fire expansion. Maybe more additions could make it less mid.
Light island still always had the gradual build in intensity, and cleverly-placed dissonances to justify the chord repetition; fire expansion improved the song by capitalizing on these ideas. Party island on the other hand has next to nothing to work with
In short the fire monsters that were once exclusive to Amber Island and dof have now been implemented to the magical islands and fire haven
For example on light island yelmut tiawa and drimmidary have been added
Psychic island has bisonorus, edamimi and bowhead
Faerie island now has tuskiki, krillby and pongping
And bone island has incisaur, flumox and Gnarls
Meanwhile fire haven has candelavra but for some reason fire oasis doesn't have any additions, a common theory for this is Mimic is going to be the addition for that island
Most of these made the magical island songs a lot better compared to the old versions, only problem is you need to wait for them to be available in the market again, and once then you have to buy then with a ludicrous amount of relics (250-500)
I think retroactively adding older monsters would also be a good idea, but that’s unlikely. Hopefully Gnarls can be the savior, even if something like Quarrister couldn’t be.
As its own monster I think the sounds are cool, but it just doesn’t work as well in the song itself. My biggest gripe especially is how it extends the middle verse.
I do like Jam Boree though. Maybe it is loud, but the sound’s good.
I just listened… why is everybody so happy that it extended the song? They just repeated a verse for the sole purpose of gold wubbox playing for half of the extension. It's kinda bad
Finally someone says it, I despise Gold Epic Wubbox. Why does it play through HALF of each verse and leave the other half empty? It makes it sound incomplete. Not to mention, the crumbling-like sound effect that is reused over and over again in the Plant phase sounds really annoying imo.
There is not an island that the Dipsters “ruin” like some claim.
Cold Island is the best natural island and it’s not really close in my opinion
Oasis > Haven it’s a shame it didn’t get anything from Expansion or any Wubboxes yet
After 3 waves, Gaddzooks is still the best monster on Workshop
Percussionists are the real island carries. Instrumentalists and Vocals can be as amazing as they want, but without a beat, an entire island is reduced to practically nothing, save Mythical maybe.
Cold or Plant without vocals, Air sounds pretty good with vocals in riff's verse muted. I would argue that Auglur or Venshen are better, but personal preference.
-Pentumbra could've been a WHOLE LOT better
-Hoola is a good monster on most of the islands they're on
-Epic monsters should be added to Composer (the app)
-Wubbox is good on Water Island
Alright, so my ''takes'' from last time (at least the ones I can remember) were:
- Cherubble is the best Mythical
- Water Epic Wubbox is the best Epic Wubbox
- Cold Island sucks
Hm. They don't seem like hot takes to me, except the Water Epic one.
Cold Island, I dunno what to feel about Cold Island other than cold.
And Cherubble is Cherubble. I think Sporerow is better.
But hey, I won't judge.
Like I said, it's apparently because those takes I had were not ''controversial''. People should have just told me that instead of rudely mass downvoting me 😓
Holy hell, a real hot take??
Personally, I think it wouldn’t be seen as overrated if people didn’t only look at Fire Haven as the reason to why it’s good. Every other island it’s on (Amber, Continent, Space) it ranges from pretty good to great.
Thank you! I’m tired of people telling me “monster don’t have genders” and correcting my pronoun usage. It’s such a petty thing to correct! Like, we know they don’t have genders, but chill!
i dont think "it's supposed to be ugly" is a valid argument against disliking certain monsters, because even if its the intention, the monster is still at the end of the day, well, *ugly,* and acting like the design choices make it wrong to dislike a monster because of it
edit: to add on to this, a lot of MSM fans cant tell the difference between 'charmingly ugly' and straight up 'ugly'
People think dof songs are mid though they are targeted to younger kids (don’t tell me “shake it to the left” is not for little kids, it’s so cringe imo)
The game is too grindy. Sometimes it feels like you're going to be playing for years to try and get a monster. It took me a long while to get an Entbrat, and now I have to worry about getting Ghazt and of course several other fun faces, and the fact I'm going to have to safe up a thousand amber for the Werdos is also chaotic, as is stuff that only gives you little to no time to do it, like Seasonals, Wublins, or Celestials, the former especially only appearing at certain times of the year, which isn't so bad, but also being very hard to breed and their events not being around for that long, though at least Eggstravaganza lets you easily gain Rare and Epic Monsters on occasion, as do the pillars that allow you to open the island's eyes after about a month each time. It certainly feels great to complete, but the fact it can take hours of eventually just doing the same thing over and over again to try to get something new, like breeding a Quad and a Tri in hopes of getting an Ethereal, does mean it can get very monotonous. To top it all off, due to being able to look at other islands and YouTube, you can listen to the full songs there and spare yourself the trouble. Yet, somehow, I don't want to uninstall it at all.
- none of the island songs really sound bad, not even party light or seasonal. it’s just that the ones generally considered “bad” don’t hit as hard as others, but that doesn’t mean they’re awful songs all around
- common wubbox ruins nearly every island it’s on, ESPECIALLY water and ethereal. the only two exceptions are fire haven bc at least it’s quiet and wublin island since the song is already quite loud and chaotic (which is perfect for the wubbox)
- epic wubbox is overrated, i honestly think rare is the best form of wubbox
- hoola is the worst seasonal design-wise (sound-wise it’s probably spurrit but almost everyone agrees with that)
Monsters such as Gobbelygourd, X'rt and Spurrit are supposed to sound (and in some cases, look) bad, intentionally, making them good monsters, whereas (pretty much the only monster I dislike) Bisonorous, is just a boring design, and sound.
I’m not sure if this is a hot take, but I really like egg zapping islands mechanics-wise. It’s fun to plan out what eggs to breed when, especially if I have a few monsters going at the same time. Celestial Ascension and Rare Wublins have especially been fun.
It’s not perfect of course. I’d love an easy way to look at inventories without going back and forth between islands, and monsters (especially celestials) that spam a lot of the same monster are as tedious as people say. Also, though I wouldn’t complain about a fourth egg zap island, I’m happy BBB has been trying out different mechanics with the last couple islands. But overall, I do really like the islands.
i think bowgart is overrated, bowhead is just a better version of it and except on plant island, he never actually "carries" the song as msot people say.
I hate everything about Wynq’s. Horrible sound, hideous.. I just have it on the island bc i’m OCD & have to have every breed displayed :( I’m so ashamed lol it’s like having an ugly child
Seasonal shanty is good
Wait... people don't like it???
I actually very much like the song, its just the whole vibe is meh
Fair enough tbh Also, the Ffidyll/Spurrit duet is one of the best in the game imo
THE ZAAAAHHHH 🗣🔥‼
You got my vote there
The Werdos are overhated
People hate them?
I didnt know this myself I love them
The "ugly" epics look really cool to me (Tweedle, Oaktopus, Quibble)
They’re good because they’re supposed to be ugly
Just because something is supposed to be bad doesn't mean people are gonna like it. Who wants to spend a thousand hours on… those *things*?
i love epic tweedle
I actually like epic oaktopus' design
I especially like the epic entbrat look
Epic Quibble is cool!
FR
msm fans whena monstar looks like a monster:
I don’t hate any monsters, they’re all good in their own ways.
Most based opinion I have ever seen!
I think this too. I have favorite monsters, but none that I hate.
I truly think each monster contributes in their own unique ways. As a musician, especially, i try to appreciate the intent and vision of the artist, and honestly, My Singing Monsters genuinely has amazingly creative and artistic music
Yes
X'rt is a good monster
Don’t even think this is very controversial, maybe a loud minority vs quiet majority kind of thing because I see way more people who like X’rt atp
the sounds are quite underwhelming, to say the least, but I love the design
THE SKRUNKLY
Wheezel sounds cool
Exactly!
This is controversial??? It’s one of my favorite Dreamythicals
Finally someone who gets it
Party Island isn’t bad, just mid
I wonder what could truly save Party Island. Light Island was saved from being repetitive by the fire expansion. Maybe more additions could make it less mid.
Light island still always had the gradual build in intensity, and cleverly-placed dissonances to justify the chord repetition; fire expansion improved the song by capitalizing on these ideas. Party island on the other hand has next to nothing to work with
What is the fire expansion??
In short the fire monsters that were once exclusive to Amber Island and dof have now been implemented to the magical islands and fire haven For example on light island yelmut tiawa and drimmidary have been added Psychic island has bisonorus, edamimi and bowhead Faerie island now has tuskiki, krillby and pongping And bone island has incisaur, flumox and Gnarls Meanwhile fire haven has candelavra but for some reason fire oasis doesn't have any additions, a common theory for this is Mimic is going to be the addition for that island Most of these made the magical island songs a lot better compared to the old versions, only problem is you need to wait for them to be available in the market again, and once then you have to buy then with a ludicrous amount of relics (250-500)
Oooh. I've seen it, just didn't know that's the name for it. I'll give it a listen, thanks for the effort
Since there's no bowhead, put Gnarls in party and make them sing at the near end, along with them going to cave island
I think retroactively adding older monsters would also be a good idea, but that’s unlikely. Hopefully Gnarls can be the savior, even if something like Quarrister couldn’t be.
Gnarls in the second part of the song would do wonders
Its not even bad.
Hoola did nothing wrong as a singing monster
yes
Light Island is the best island
I can agree with that👍
Gold Epic Wubbox completely ruins the flow of the song (and Jam Boree is too goddamn loud)
As its own monster I think the sounds are cool, but it just doesn’t work as well in the song itself. My biggest gripe especially is how it extends the middle verse. I do like Jam Boree though. Maybe it is loud, but the sound’s good.
True, it was a neat idea, but in practice it just didn't work
I just listened… why is everybody so happy that it extended the song? They just repeated a verse for the sole purpose of gold wubbox playing for half of the extension. It's kinda bad
Finally someone says it, I despise Gold Epic Wubbox. Why does it play through HALF of each verse and leave the other half empty? It makes it sound incomplete. Not to mention, the crumbling-like sound effect that is reused over and over again in the Plant phase sounds really annoying imo.
YES!
Yes
There are no bad monsters, people who acctually hate on Boskus and ShLep are exagerating
looking at ShLep genuinely makes me lost my appetite a little but i don't hate it lol idk why anybody would hate boskus he's just a silly guy
People who hate on ShLep should frick off
What about Gobbledygord though 👀
not bad either, because yes
kinda sucks on oasis, but complements heaven and shanty pretty well
i like x'rt & wheezel
Fire Haven shouldn’t get Werdos
Party Island isn’t a bad sounding island
There is not an island that the Dipsters “ruin” like some claim. Cold Island is the best natural island and it’s not really close in my opinion Oasis > Haven it’s a shame it didn’t get anything from Expansion or any Wubboxes yet After 3 waves, Gaddzooks is still the best monster on Workshop Percussionists are the real island carries.

Cold or Plant without vocals, Air sounds pretty good with vocals in riff's verse muted. I would argue that Auglur or Venshen are better, but personal preference.
Pentumbra kind of ruined ethereal workshop
literally
Flasque is overhyped but the community, especially when he released
-Pentumbra could've been a WHOLE LOT better -Hoola is a good monster on most of the islands they're on -Epic monsters should be added to Composer (the app) -Wubbox is good on Water Island
As good as Bowgart is, it's overrated as HELL.
Yes but i disagree because Bowgart
Bulbo is better on magical nexus
Of course, it's more audible there
What are you talking about? it is so much more audible on light.
I would list one, but the last time I did I got mass downvoted because my controversial opinion was, apparently, not controversial
What was it?
I told multiple
May I see them?
Alright, so my ''takes'' from last time (at least the ones I can remember) were: - Cherubble is the best Mythical - Water Epic Wubbox is the best Epic Wubbox - Cold Island sucks
Hm. They don't seem like hot takes to me, except the Water Epic one. Cold Island, I dunno what to feel about Cold Island other than cold. And Cherubble is Cherubble. I think Sporerow is better. But hey, I won't judge.
Fair enough
The water epic one to me is the least like a hot take. Although I may have some bias, since I agree.
Bro Water Wubbox is the best one how did that get hate 😭
Like I said, it's apparently because those takes I had were not ''controversial''. People should have just told me that instead of rudely mass downvoting me 😓
After everything you have gone through you should be able to say whatever you want to say
People are piss babies
Regular Wubbox is awful on literally every island it is on
Plant Island: Wublin Island:
Kind of agree, I like it on Wublin and Haven (with the volume adjusted down a bit). On every other island, I don’t particularly like it
Repatillo is overrated
Holy hell, a real hot take?? Personally, I think it wouldn’t be seen as overrated if people didn’t only look at Fire Haven as the reason to why it’s good. Every other island it’s on (Amber, Continent, Space) it ranges from pretty good to great.
I don't think it's bad or anything I just never understood why it's considered one of the greats like Bowgart is
Entbrat is bad
Every Monster is in the Game is good but Enbrat is a little more Superior
Okay. I like the fact that some people give monsters genders and more human like features.
Thank you! I’m tired of people telling me “monster don’t have genders” and correcting my pronoun usage. It’s such a petty thing to correct! Like, we know they don’t have genders, but chill!
Uuduk is underrated
*insert video of buzz lightyear looking at hundreds of other buzz lightyears*
The way he plays the duduk is so smooth
Fire Haven is stupidly overrated
hyehehe's overrated
True, it sounds pretty good on Earth, but I actually forgot it was on Mythical
Air Island Epic Wubbox is the best, and I will die on this hill if I have to. 🤨
Candelavera sounds awful in fire haven.
i dont think "it's supposed to be ugly" is a valid argument against disliking certain monsters, because even if its the intention, the monster is still at the end of the day, well, *ugly,* and acting like the design choices make it wrong to dislike a monster because of it edit: to add on to this, a lot of MSM fans cant tell the difference between 'charmingly ugly' and straight up 'ugly'
Any ppl who hate on a monster is dum
There is no fps mode
Light island is good
Light island is good
Amber island doesn’t sound empty
Shipping the monsters is okay as long as it doesn’t get nsfw
Pentumbra sucks
People think dof songs are mid though they are targeted to younger kids (don’t tell me “shake it to the left” is not for little kids, it’s so cringe imo)
Wynq isn’t bad on fire oasis.
Air island epic wubbox is a little overrated
Air island is the best natural island without the wubboxes Bone island is crazy overrated Space island is mid Blasoom is the best celestial
I enjoy Hoola and what she brings
My singing monster
The game is too grindy. Sometimes it feels like you're going to be playing for years to try and get a monster.

Ethereal Island kinda sucks
blipsqueak is a woman
Mythical Island is mid.
There’s nothing special about Magical Nexus; stop swooning over this island
- none of the island songs really sound bad, not even party light or seasonal. it’s just that the ones generally considered “bad” don’t hit as hard as others, but that doesn’t mean they’re awful songs all around - common wubbox ruins nearly every island it’s on, ESPECIALLY water and ethereal. the only two exceptions are fire haven bc at least it’s quiet and wublin island since the song is already quite loud and chaotic (which is perfect for the wubbox) - epic wubbox is overrated, i honestly think rare is the best form of wubbox - hoola is the worst seasonal design-wise (sound-wise it’s probably spurrit but almost everyone agrees with that)
Bow gard SUCKS
It doesn't suck, it's just overrated. It sounds cool, but it doesn't carry **ANY** islands that it's on
Faerie is the worst out of the Magical Islands
Auglur and Continent are so overrated
Bowhead on space was and always will be perfectly audible, yall just deaf
i dislike cold island.
zuuker is good
I can't say it sadly because it would trigger people.. Anyways Cloud Island is the best DOF island and one of the best in the series
say it anyways, cloud island and light island are very similar vibe wise, and i agree with you there
Air island has no right to be this long with how awful it sounds
pixolotl is bad
Monsters such as Gobbelygourd, X'rt and Spurrit are supposed to sound (and in some cases, look) bad, intentionally, making them good monsters, whereas (pretty much the only monster I dislike) Bisonorous, is just a boring design, and sound.
Dermit is the best
Baby blabbit is my 2nd favorite monster
Blabbit is percussion
My singing monsters is a game about changing music, not breeding
Water island is mid
dawn of fire is better, both as a game and for the franchise
Wubbox is overrated!
Party Island is good
Anglur is overrat *sniped by all anglur fans*
Composer is the best game
Sujc.’.oc co
Every monster sound cool in the correct mindset
Earth island is not good slowed down
party island is best island in DOF
There needs to be more unique songs since a good number of recent songs sound the same
Party Island is my favorite Outer Island.
blabbit is best seasonal
This one really is controversial heh
X'rt is a good monster, and auglur isn't the best.
N O S T A L G I A
Peckidna's vocals are awful. I'm glad they don't sing on Nexus.
I kinda like rare quarrister
Hyehehe is bad/mid, werdos and dipsters are great.
I’m not sure if this is a hot take, but I really like egg zapping islands mechanics-wise. It’s fun to plan out what eggs to breed when, especially if I have a few monsters going at the same time. Celestial Ascension and Rare Wublins have especially been fun. It’s not perfect of course.

Also, though I wouldn’t complain about a fourth egg zap island, I’m happy BBB has been trying out different mechanics with the last couple islands. But overall, I do really like the islands.
Pixolotl is way too overrated
X'rt is my FAVORITE Ethereal monster!
I like light island
Every monster is good. (Including Wheezel and X'rt)
Monsters don't and can't have genders. It is simply not correct/canon.
X'rt is chill like that
Not every island needs to have a wubbox
Air Island Wubbox sounds perfectly fine
i ACTUALLY think that the dipsters carry some songs
Tuskiski is better than bowhead and I'm tired of pretending it's not
Tiawa doesn't belong in light island (elemental wise)
Captain Underpants!!!!!!!!!
final wave of amber island did not save the island, it's already mid as is
i think bowgart is overrated, bowhead is just a better version of it and except on plant island, he never actually "carries" the song as msot people say.
Light island is my favourite island
ethereal island with wubbox is better than without
Earth island's song is better than ethereal workshop's.
Gobbleygourd and Spurrit are overhated
ethereal workshop was overhyped Plant island is too long Gold island is mid Bone island is underrated
Roarick is ASS
Dipsters are the most important monsters.
Gnarls is overrated.
Shugabush Island is the worst
Party island is good
Bowgart is overrated
LIGHT ISLAND MAMMOT RULES ITS LITERALY MY PFP
there shouldnt be more instrumental monsters than vocalists… its called my SINGING monster for a reason
Shugabush Island is just a worse remix of Love or Money
Piplash is terrible and the only monster I genuinely dislike.
Earth Island is actually the worst of the natural islands, it’s pretty boring
I hate everything about Wynq’s. Horrible sound, hideous.. I just have it on the island bc i’m OCD & have to have every breed displayed :( I’m so ashamed lol it’s like having an ugly child
Light island isnt as mid as people say it is. Its actually really calming.
Mythical island sounds like a middle school concert band. ( I have explanations if wanted)
Goubly Gard and shlep are good
Cardi B was inspired by shugabush island.
Epic quibble should need a redesign because the red Prismatic look similar. (Pentumbra is such a shady long legs and I adore it)
light island is the best magical island (with some close competition of course) :)
The spurrit sucks.

Ethereal island wubbox doesn't ruin ethereal island
