I mean, when I initially listened to the EP I felt like the themes of it kinda ended on an incomplete note, they set up too much lore for it to end like this, and now with this video I’m even more convinced that the next album (which was supposed to still come this year, we’ll see) will be a direct follow up
I really like how when the videos have a story like this, "Starlight Brigade" and "Synthesize Her", TWRP themselves aren't the central characters. These guys make the most uplifting music I listen to, so of course their characters are out to help others in need, not flaunt their egos. That said, there better be a sequel to this! Fight on, Groove Crusaders!

(Great song and music video once again TWRP!)
I kept telling my friends that Have you Heard is actually TWRP's creepiest and most deranged song because they don't listen to the lyrics and y'all proved me RIGHT, thank you
Have you listened to the Friends of the Blues EP and the Digital Nightmare album? Both of the whole things are cynical and full of dark social commentary, they're amazing.
I really REALLY love how the brainwashing effects were represented through analog imagery like scanlines and generation loss. I'm half tempted to try recreating those effects by how juicy they were, it's such sick execution of a vision i haven't really seen done before!! _also,_ this is such a freaking twrp music video lmao, all of the goofy easter eggs. (also dylan cameo!!! let's go!)
I was surprised that they used disks to remove and restore the memories. Possibly a reference to the Crescendolls since TWRP is heavily inspired by the Interstella 5555.

Listened to this song dozens of times before. Don't know I never put together it was about a cult mindset. Also, I didn't realize this song and VHS were part of a four track album. Just bought the other two now.
The music video really makes me want to listen to the song even more. The cult feeling with the robs and the darker ending really brings everything together! I really hope they make a part 2 to this video!
At first i was loving this cult leader, then for a brief moment i wanted to get him and make him stop, but in the end I loved him again. Don't know why, but all hail to our leader.
I've just got to say. Whether it's cover songs or something original I'm really going to need yall to release more videos and also come play in my local city of Mobile AL... and book Hulaween in 2024. I swear you will be loved in both places... I know since I've heard the good news... please 🙏
This evoked so many emotions in me that I had a comment about everything that happened, but I forgot them all. It was already a great song, but this... I am going to stare at for at least five hours.
I love how TWRP videos are getting more elaborated throughout the years. I'm so glad I found their music around 2016. I'm from Mexico, but I swear I will go one day to one of your shows to see you on live ❤🙌
Ok so the lyrics must be transmitting this music video into my brain because this is VERY SIMILAR to the MV I’ve been seeing in my head for weeks every time I hear this song. Bravo!
Between this EP and Digital Nightmare, you guys have elevated yourselves and raised the bar. In the past your music has just been fun and nice to listen to, but now you've got something real and serious to say beneath the veneer of jaunty tunes and pleasant melodies. You're finally putting meat on the music's bones and baring teeth. Excellent stuff. I will say, however, that the Grobb and IBS stuff at the live show, while making a good political statement, did grind down the fun of the show and often got in the way of the flow of the set, so I hope there's a less distracting and obstructive way for you to get your message across in the future. By the way, it was really sad to see everyone cheering for Sung to get promoted in IBS, an obviously evil corporation. I was the lone guy at the Phoenix show cheering my head off to fire him and free him from their clutches. Apparently nobody else got the message. Keep up the genuinely phenomenal work on the tunes and political themes, though. FotB and DN are your best work yet.
Ayeeeee back at it again!!! Where have TWRP been all my life. Its been a year since I first heard the hit. And I've been jamming to you guys everyday. Keep it up boys!!!❤❤❤❤
This proves it, no matter how rough life gets, what weird situation you find yourself in, or what weird cult you find yourself in, music will save us all! Bring on the funk 👨🎤
Seeing TWRP in a crowd amongst regular people is the same feeling as seeing your custom character in a cutscene

LMFAOOO
TWRP PIN THIS!
My first time on lsd I saw tupperware play... and... it had some effects on me
@@vixerquizDid the world around you go 8-bit or animated?
Hopefully the Groove Crusaders are able to recover from the grips of the dastardly Haters disguising themselves as a normal cult.
I hope they can stop them from un-groovifiying the world at large
God speed to those 4 funky fighters
I love that they were willing to end on an ominous sour note like that in the video. It actually kind of makes me want to see a sequel.

I was so convinced we would see them conquer the cult. Nope, 🌝 wins again.
VHS has to be the sequel right?

Have you heard the good news?
You can do as you choose
Just as long as it's what they tell you to do

And after all

Have you heard the good news?

And after all
Who else would you want to be?
We didn't see the signs
And then they robbed us blind
But our time is coming now
It's time to break, it's time to break
Time to break free
Have you heard the good news?
As a Friend Of The Blues
You don't need anything else ever again
When you're here, you can see
Everything that he sees
Only if you surrender
And after all
Why would you ever not want to?

How could people not love TWRP! These guys deserve all the love
They are epicly the best.

Mission Failed, we'll get 'em next time.
Amazing video, I want more from this cult era
Beautifully done! I love the ominous bad ending, never thought I'd be creeped out by a TWRP video. Also, love seein Merchlord Dylan in there
Yea I was so excited to see Dylan too! :D what a fun dude
The music of TWRP is distilled joy in sonic form. I'm so grateful they exist.
I love the VHS tape being used as the bondage!
It was cool to see Merchlord Dylan in the video!

Followed because of the projects with NSP and interviews on Leighton Night w/ Brian Wecht and I’m really glad I did. ❤ TWRP ❤ is love. ❤TWRP❤ is life.
As someone who already loves your music, and was raised in a christian cult - these notes resonated powerfully. ROCk ON TWRP!

SO GREAT! Jack & Arthur you boys killed it with this one. Amazing work all around y’all! 🔥
Me in red dead 2 after fishing with the kid
Just the music video that I needed. So nice to see the EP finally get a proper music video.
I have never heard of this band but my friend recommended the song and I must say, this is absolutely incredible.
A criminally underrated band back at it again! Amazing work!
I love this band
I wish to hear the good news and ascend to a new dimension!
TWRP just brings it every. single. time.
Such unnerving lyrics hidden in an epic jam!! I am stunned
Now we have Heard haven’t we?
This is one of TWRP’s best songs imo so I’m so happy they made a music video to accompany it!
Listened to this song dozens of times before. Don't know I never put together it was about a cult mindset. Also, I didn't realize this song and VHS were part of a four track album. Just bought the other two now.

At first i was loving this cult leader, then for a brief moment i wanted to get him and make him stop, but in the end I loved him again.
Don't know why, but all hail to our leader.
"Neural Funk Cortex" now there's an album name.
Nothing beats seeing a new TWRP upload!
Great tune guys
My theory is that the VHS doesn’t effect Hogan, he’s just there to observe
Oh yea baby!!!!!
another beauty by one of the greatest bands ever to bless my eardrums, thank you
I’m seeing this as an ad even though I’m already a big fan. Might want to tweak your ad setting so that this gets to new people.
been waiting for this amigos
Whoa...
That was epic, and had real SCP vibes, which I dig on, I dig on it hard time. Fifthist cult is scary cult
seeing TWRP in the crowd of "regular" people will never not be funny to me.
My boyfriend introduced me to TWRP, and that was one of the greatest things he has done to me, to be completely honest 😂❤
nice works ma space buds!
great video guys! although it could've used more GROBB
We're all just friends of the blues ❤ Hope to see you guys in SoCal again! Love the EP.
The message against indoctrination here is strong, and well-handled. I love this video.
Already loved the song, seeing the story that I had already imagined from the lyrics actually play out is awesome. More please! Praise GROBB
Fresh AF!
ABSOLUTELY incredible!! The plot here has such depth!! Well done!!!
Y'all never stop being amazing, do you?
everyone: NOOOOOO AAA IM SUFFERING
Havve Hogan: 😶
Also WHATSUP MERCHLORD DYLAN!?
Love it guys. Keep up the good work
Exactly the song I need right now. Helped me realize that hearing is best. I love hearing. All non-hearers must be cured.
You mean deaf people 😂
@@Sm0k3turt Probably what they mean, yes. But not all people able to hear actually do.
You guys know how to make a damn good music video
Could use some good news, glad to have heard it!
3:56 Sung: "GET ME OUT!!!"
4:01 Phobos: "GET ME OUT!!!"
4:03 Meouch: "GET ME OUT!!!"
4:06 Haave: "i'm fine here :)"
This reminds me of some classic Daft Punk funk in the best way possible
Same here!🙂
I've just got to say. Whether it's cover songs or something original I'm really going to need yall to release more videos and also come play in my local city of Mobile AL... and book Hulaween in 2024. I swear you will be loved in both places... I know since I've heard the good news... please 🙏
This is a nasty groove. I love it
The lyrics, the groove, and the video is too captivating. I think i might be apart of their cult now😵💫. I want a part 2 plz.
Fantastic video to go with an amazing song!
The MV is giving Midnight Mass but funky and I love it
Awesome! It's so hard to have a satisfying ending where the villain wins but I always love narratives with legitimate stakes.
This evoked so many emotions in me that I had a comment about everything that happened, but I forgot them all. It was already a great song, but this... I am going to stare at for at least five hours.
Always good to see Merchlord Dylan!
Ahh yeah! I was hoping the frames on FOTB were gonna be for a vid! This is amazing!
I love this. Great job, space dudes!
Heck yeah! Loving it!
I think you make some of the best music videos on UA-cam. Hands-down. Good songs to, but the music videos are always on point.
That base line is 🥰👌🥰👌🥰👌🥰👌🥰👌🥰👌👌🥰
TWRP Band is BEST Band!🎉

Heck, this looks amazing and adds so much to theme of the cul- I mean the Truth of the Anomaly....
I was here for the premier and will keep replaying. Good job y'all!
Surprised and happy to see Dylan here. But omg such a great video!
these guys can't make a bad song, you love to hear it!

Great guitar solo
This is crazy groovy and fantabolius funk alicious thank you twrp for your hard work !!

All jokes aside, I loved every second of this video. Can't wait to see more!
Listen to this song all the time, so happy to see it got a music video.
Finally a video for my favorite one !

What an amazing music video!
So funkalicious!
The mixtape was fire confirmed.
That guitar work & solo is 👌🥰👌🥰👌🥰👌🥰👌🥰👌
All I can say is ✨iconic✨
Perfection *chefs kiss*
VHS was a good format, but DVD was truly a needed step up.
it can't end like this!!!
This gon be good
TWRP, I LOVE YOU
HELL YES! This is amazing! ...and the twist end. Will we ever get away?
You guys are the best I’ve seen you twice but I haven’t had the chance since Together Through Time pls come to Chicago once again the greatest
This proves it, no matter how rough life gets, what weird situation you find yourself in, or what weird cult you find yourself in, music will save us all!
Bring on the funk 👨🎤
Those vocals and lyrics ❤👌🥰👌🥰👌🥰👌🥰👌
