ADMT: From Good To Bad And Then Back Again

An album that feels like reading someone’s diary page by page


Some albums are made to entertain people for a moment. Others stay with you because they feel real. ADMT’s debut album "From Good To Bad And Then Back Again" belongs to the second category. It’s emotional, honest, messy at times and incredibly human — the kind of album that doesn’t try to be perfect because life itself isn’t perfect either.


After supporting Louis Tomlinson and building a loyal fanbase over the last few years, ADMT finally delivers a project that fully shows who he is as an artist and as a person. Ahead of his own solo tour next month, this album feels like the beginning of something much bigger for him. Not because the songs are made for charts or trends, but because they connect with people on a real emotional level.


Yesterday, I had the chance to interview Adam for around thirty minutes, and honestly, it made listening to this album even more special afterwards. The conversation was incredibly open from the very beginning. There were moments that became very deep and emotional, but also lighter moments filled with laughter and honesty. Nothing felt forced or media-trained. He spoke about music, emotions, life and the stories behind certain songs in such a genuine way that it almost felt less like an interview and more like a real conversation between two people. That honesty is exactly what defines "From Good To Bad And Then Back Again".


Listening to the album feels like reading someone’s diary page by page. Every song sounds like a different entry written during different moments of his life — some written during heartbreak, some during healing, some during complete emotional exhaustion. You can hear the growth throughout the record, but also the setbacks, the doubts and the moments where everything feels too heavy.


Adam doesn’t try to hide those emotions. Instead, he lets listeners sit with them. What makes the album so powerful is that the lyrics never feel overcomplicated. He doesn’t use big poetic lines just to sound impressive. The emotions come through because the writing feels natural and truthful. A lot of listeners will probably hear their own experiences inside these songs. Whether it’s loneliness, anxiety, heartbreak, fear of losing people or simply trying to find your place in life, ADMT captures emotions in a way that feels deeply personal but also universally relatable.


Vocally, this is some of his best work. His voice carries emotion in such a raw way that even the quieter moments hit hard. Sometimes his voice sounds tired, sometimes fragile, sometimes hopeful — and that emotional variation makes the album feel alive. The production also supports the storytelling perfectly. Nothing overshadows the lyrics. Instead, the instrumentals create space for the emotions to breathe.


One of the most beautiful things about the album is how balanced it feels emotionally. Even during the saddest moments, there’s still a feeling of hope somewhere underneath everything. The album never stays in darkness completely. It feels more like someone trying to survive difficult moments while slowly learning how to move forward again.


The tracklist itself almost works like chapters in a story:


1.Burn Brighter


The opening track immediately sets the emotional tone of the album. Built around swelling instrumentation and vulnerable vocals, the song feels like a statement of intent: keep shining even when life tries to dim you.


2.Homeless

3.Turn The Page


A song about growth, fear and moving forward. There’s a cinematic quality here, almost like watching someone rebuild themselves in real time. The chorus feels destined for live shows.


4.The Door that never opens

5.Fools Gold

6.As Long As It’s You


7.Still Water

Calm on the surface, chaotic underneath — exactly like the title suggests. The lyrics explore internal battles  with striking honesty



A clever metaphor-driven track about fate, risk and emotional gambling. ADMT’s songwriting shines here, balancing storytelling with raw confession.


9.Can’t Get Back

10.Wish You Good

11. Cover To Cover

12.Part Of Yours


Songs like "Homeless" and 'Still Water" carry some of the album’s heaviest emotions, while tracks like Wish You Good show a softer and more reflective side of ADMT’s songwriting.


"Part Of Yours" closes the album beautifully, almost like the final diary entry after a long emotional journey.

What also makes this era exciting is how open Adam currently seems creatively and personally.


During yesterday’s interview, there was this feeling that he’s finally comfortable showing every side of himself, not only the polished parts. That honesty will also become visible to fans very soon when the interview goes online in the next few days. After hearing him talk so openly about the album, the songs feel even more meaningful.


"From Good To Bad And Then Back Again" is not just an album full of songs. It’s a collection of feelings, memories, fears and healing processes. It’s vulnerable without trying too hard to be vulnerable. And that’s exactly why it works so well.


ADMT has created an album that feels safe for people who are struggling, comforting for people who feel alone and honest for people who are tired of music that says nothing real. Supporting Louis Tomlinson may have introduced new listeners to him, but this album proves that ADMT is more than ready to stand on his own.


This record doesn’t just ask people to listen. It asks them to feel everything with him.
