LMAO I felt you when you started singing "You should've listened to your friends, you would have been over this by now, over this by noowwww". I still do the same.
The Kurt Travis era was my favorite along with my brother from the raw emotion in the lyrics and vocals to the instruments Death Star was by far one of my favorites.
awesome to see young people loving DGD. all drama aside, all their eras have unique sound and its always amazing. Also word of advice if you've never seen DGD live: buy their tickets as soon as they post dates. Their shows sell out very quickly. At least in Florida 😅
I first heard this band back in like 2009 in a kitty0706 gmod machinima with Uneasy Hearts Weigh the Most. It wasnt until 2018 that I properly got into the band and they are one of my alltime favs and they're from my hometown which is super cool. I saw them at Swanfest 2022 for the first time which was probably the worst time to see them as it was their first show since Tim passed, Tillian was super emotional and breaking into tears throughout most of the setlist and then would get his first accusations the following week. I sometimes rewatch the vids I took back then and its always a tough watch for all those reasons combined.
@@Nihoolious despite all the reason which make it a tough watch I’m glad to hear about your love for the band, and the good experiences and memories you have because of that. I’ve still yet to see them live but I will soon one day!
Thank you so much for the love! I’ll either have Jackpot Juicer be it’s own video, or in a part 2 if I miss a few albums. I’m glad that you enjoyed the video!
Dude it is so nice to hear that someone else appreciates Swisher Pt.1 absolute banger of a song and it hits every time I play it. Also I relate to you when it comes to the deathstar segment with relationships. I am currently in the exact situation you described and I actually have to avoid listening to Deathstar because of it.
Dude the Swisher songs are some of the best things the band has ever made, I’m glad to hear you like em too! What are the chances you ended up relating to my little story there aha. In a weird way it make me happy that I told it. Thanks for commenting too
@blacksugarlovin Came back to this to recommend Divisi by A Lot Like Birds. Kurt Travis wasn't on it so I avoided it for a while but man does it hit me hard. Fantastic album.
DGD is such a wild enigma of a band. I completely understand the hate the music gets. You either get it or you dont and you cant convince people to convert. Maybe its in our DNA. Maybe its pico de gallo
Nice and quick over view for those who need to know the quick history of the band. While I don’t agree with all the best song selected from each album, I can respect the selection made. DGD is so different that I believe any song can mean more to any listener. And my guy said “Open Your Eyes and Look North” was more stand out song on DBM1 versus “Lemon Meringue Tie” 1000% respect that, song is so underrated. Looking forward to part 2 🤙🏻
Wow, I love this extensive comment! I truly am privileged to have people like you watching and commenting on the video. I enjoy how we can healthily agree and disagree on certain tracks being our favourites. “Open Your Eyes and Look North”, will always have a special place in my heart ❤️. Thank you once again for commenting!
the first song that introduced me was headhunter and philosopher king, but i got attached when i listened to we own the night. god damn that song is one of the best
i tried so hard but the singing was getting so cringe I'm sorry T___T tapped out at 9:42 . pretty good besides that tho I just cant handle second hand embarrassment LOL
Great vid, All valid top song choices, nice touch with bringing your own performances in there too ;) I got into DGD around the time Happiness/DTBM2 came out, (After Discovering Jonny Through the "Isles and Glaciers" project with PTV and Chiodos) So it's really cool to hear the opinions people introduced during the Tilian era on the old days. (Honestly for me I faded out of DGD post Mothership apart from a few highlights (Evaporate snatched a piece of my soul, I had goosebumps all over, I even said to a friend it was the DGD "Donny What a catch") Looking Forward to your PT 2 look on Jackpot Juicer, The mid album songs/Post-Tim songs. And the new work with Andrew Wells. I think He's a great middle point between Jonny and Tilian, His Vocals With Eidola are solid. (Also, I can't recommend the Secret Band albums enough. It's Will, Jon and Matt going balls to the wall with creativity and chaos, Meat Fetish is a personal fave, and might even hint on the future of DGD. since their guitarist is joining the touring lineup and If what's been said by Andy is anything to go by.)
Thank you for this mountain of a comment! I’m glad to hear that you enjoyed the video and my performances aha. It’s been really great getting to see everyone’s experience and feelings with the band! The WISRO script has been written, so now it’s time to work on the Jackpot Juicer one. As for Secret band and the other projects you mentioned, I’ll try and give them a look sometime soon
I too find myself singing "oh you should have listened to your friends" randomly throughout the day Also the robot with human hair pt 3 is my current favorite song from the deathstar album
Thank you for the recommendations! I’ve been meaning to listen to their stuff for quite some time now. When I get around to it I’ll make a video and or videos for them
I probably forgot to mention it, or I wanted to give love to the other tracks on DBM. But I think it goes without saying that Lemon Meringue Tie is a certified classic and banger!
Tilian is the best vocalist specifically in DGD and I think they really honed their sound with him in the band and his solo stuff is good as well but I don’t listen much. Kurt is the most versatile given the absurd amount of projects he’s had and is also a great vocalist and I love him in Royal Coda. Jonny is my personal favorite of the 3 with all of his work but I personally don’t think most of his best stuff is in DGD though he is still GREAT there but I prefer what he did with Emarosa I think that fit him really well. Never understood the hate toward any of them, DGD was truly blessed to have 3 of the GREATEST vocalists in the scene all in their band and they all did amazing there isn’t a single DGD album I don’t like
@@ev3llluke672 For me it’s a tie between Tilian and Jonny as my favourite vocalists. I will say that during Tilian’s run in the band he had, in my opinion, some of the best lyrics they ever had. As for Jonny that’s a one of a kind voice, Kurt has a special place in my heart. I haven’t listened to Royal Coda or Emarosa but I’ll try get around to them some day
My relationship with Dance Gavin Dance is weird because I just love Happiness and a few standalone songs from the DBM I and Deathstar era. The chemistry between Zach, Wil and Kurt without the need of overpowering each other at obnoxious levels (as it happened in previous and following lineups and records) and how well polished, passion driven and nuanced all the tracks are, makes it one of my favorite albums ever. The whole Tillian additon with Jon Mess comeback era, is unlistenable to me with a few exceptions. It's just sounds like sterile overproduced bubblegum popcore with intermitent filler screaming. PS: I loved Tillian in Tides of Man. He used to have super interesting vocal melodies, subtle raspiness and tone variations. I don't know why he has to be so over the top now with DGD.
@@FachyMarin It’s interesting to listen and see how different fans of the band can love different things about them, and for different reasons. While I disagree with most of your opinion, I really like how you took the time to detail why, instead of just saying what you don’t like is “‘mid” or “ass” with no explanation. But the one common theme I tend to see between all is DGD fans is that we all love the album Happiness with a passion aha! Thanks for taking the time to leave this detailed comment!
I relate to your Acceptance Speech experience a lot. When i first listened to the album, only a month or so ago, I nearly hated it, especially The Jiggler. Now, the only tracks i enjoy are Strawberry Swisher pt. 3 and Jesus H. Macy because of TSC2.

Dude, it would be amazing to see the face of "WTF" of someone who had never heard DGD before, and watched your video hearing you singing the lycris. Imagine thinking that DGD has a smooth, clean, and anti-noising sound and vocals. I would love to see that LMAO. I really liked your video! I have been listening to DGD since 2016. Don't really think the latest albuns (Jackpot Juicer and Afterbuner) are good, sadly. The peak was Mothership and Artificial Selection, even tho I think Jonny is by very very far the best vocalist of DGD, the man is a legend. I wish he could return to the band someday. Ps: the old albuns are better! Another ps (that you didn't asked for): how could u not like the song "happiness"?!, so sad. My favorite song is Shelf Life! I'm brazilian, so if my english is kinda shitty, don't judge me. Anyway, great video! ✌🏻
@@raquelnazari I’m glad you liked the video and thanks for your detailed comment. I agree with you on the fact that I think Mothership was their peak, Afterburner was like an interesting experiment for me, and I loved Jackpot Juicer. I’m glad to see and hear about your love for the band, it definitely makes this video that much more worth it!
I think you were right the first time about Jon not having doing the unclean vocals on Deathstar! - I think Will is even ‘seen’ doing them in the “Zoloft” video - boy has that record aged well
I feel like tillian has the weakest vocals out of the roster. Then again i quit listening to them in 2010ish then “refound” them in 2022 and I just felt like his style was so jarring probably due to my expectations of what i thought dgd should sound like
@@TheSuperSangan I feel like this a completely fair opinion, considering this is how I felt when I first heard Acceptance Speech, and had to get used to Tilian being the clean vocalist. I’m glad that you “refound” them tho
Ahh okay, I was pretty confident that it was just the happiness era, but thanks for correcting me. I’m glad you noticed and liked the 8bit songs in the background, I figured it would add a nice touch
This was a great band while it lasted. Hopefully Tilian gets to sing his old songs but akin to a Taylor Swift move with his own versions of the instrumentation. He is signed to the same record label and all the music belongs to them anyways.
I still think that they’re a great band and I’m excited for what the new era holds. But I agree with you on what ting to hear Tilian’s version of the new songs
@@blacksugarlovin yea especially knowing how a lot of their bigger hits were just repurposed solo material from Tilian’s solo stuff (lyrics). In terms of the band, I think they need to rediscover their sound, the new stuff sounds like it was meant for Tilian, even though he didn’t get a songwriting credit. So either they’re still subconsciously writing with Tilian in mind (because they’re used to it) or they took his name out of it despite his contributions. I’m leaning towards the former, to which rediscovering their sound will be needed. I find it hard to listen to an obvious Tilian chorus without Tilian, and I’m not listening to Eidola 2.0.
If there’s one thing that’s true about DGD, it’s that the band sucked until Tilian came. JC isn’t good, and neither is Kurt Travis. Having bad taste is okay, but pretending they were good isn’t. I’m excited to see how Andrew and Jon tackle lead together.
I respectfully disagree with parts of this statement. The bad was good with solid instrumentation and JC’s vocals. He had the strongest vocals of all 3, Tilian had the best mix of vocals and lyrics, and Kurt was the weakest in both but made up for it in vibes. But I think that’s the beauty of all this, it’s that we can have different opinions on the same band that we love
What great timing for this video to come out 🤣 part 2 incoming…
Sounds great ahaha. It might be a minute before I get around to it
No mention of Whatever I Say Is Royal Ocean?! Technically their first record!
Technically you are right. I either plan on having it be it’s own video, or in a part 2!
Came here to say this. That’s the second best after DTBM1 to me.
@@blakethatcher4399 rest assured it’ll get its own video soon

@@map9992 thank you aha I’ve got a Fall Out Boy deep diving coming out in a few months
@@blacksugarlovin FOB was my first concert and probably my favorite band of all time so I'm excited.
If there’s one thing that’s true about DGD, it’s that the band sucked until Tilian came. JC isn’t good, and neither is Kurt Travis. Having bad taste is okay, but pretending they were good isn’t. I’m excited to see how Andrew and Jon tackle lead together.
I respectfully disagree with parts of this statement. The bad was good with solid instrumentation and JC’s vocals. He had the strongest vocals of all 3, Tilian had the best mix of vocals and lyrics, and Kurt was the weakest in both but made up for it in vibes. But I think that’s the beauty of all this, it’s that we can have different opinions on the same band that we love
What a terrible opinion you are entitled to
@@ChadLennexRules it’s just rage bait bro, lol.
