I wouldn't be mad if they incorporated all their vocalists in more songs. This one is so good but I'm also diehard dgd fan
I think that would be hype, more will raps and andrew singing on albums would be great. Big thing I love in their recent albums is Andrew's vocal features and I think they did it on JPJ more either because Andrew himself just wanted to sing more or because he fans have been craving it, probably both.
Same
I agree
tilian is gone for good now from what i've heard :(
I truly feel like this will be the album that they will pull out all the stops. I know they are gonna go harder than ever before in honor of Tim but also to prove that when it comes to age they are fine wine. I’m excited !
There's a new album?
@@VN1X there’s rumors that they are working on a new one. I remember I saw on Reddit there was leaks and news about it
@@VN1X Its confirmed by Tilian that the new album will be out next year
I think the biggest takeaway people are getting from Andrew’s vocals in every song he’s featured in so far is that he brings it to an emotional level that no one noticed could be felt with those bands. Eidola has absolutely made me question everything about myself and their music takes you on a journey, and I feel like everyone hearing Andrew sing parts like at the end of this song is finally getting it. He has so much versatility and he really puts it all into the music he makes.
Andrew is one of the best vocalists in the post hardcore scene IMO. I discovered eidola in 2017 and since then they’ve been my favorite band. If you really like Andrew, you should check out galleons! Very similar vocals, Tom is amazing. Andrew and galleons did a song together called “cry baby”
Loving all the positive comments on this post. Love this song, can’t wait for Swanfest in Philly
Sounds like Acceptance Speech era DGD
dude honestly, i didnt think of that but it kinda has a lot of acceptance speech and mothership inspiration (or maybe i only think of mothership cause of the visualizer lol)
@@antoniolopez1135I didn’t realize that’s why I liked it til I read this comment
It’s more of a Mothership tbh!
The intro is very old dgd, it's got that dreamy feel that pulled me to them in the first place
One of my favorite things now is Tillian and Andrew’s voices together
their sound is and always will be epic and larger than life for me.. this confirms it! loving this single!
I've had this on repeat. So So good.
I never got into or even really listened to DGD even though I was told they were basically a tailor made fit for my vibecore sweet tooth. This song finally kicked off the discography dive, it slaps so hard and my good hook sweet tooth is more than satisfied
It's a deep rabbithole and it's so fun to go through it all
Enjoy that rabbit hole! Especially their work with Tim. The bass work on their records with him was just something else man
Saw them last night and this song goes so hard live. It's such a beautiful tribute to Tim, and you can feel the passion they all put into it in his memory.
Ive seen them live 2 times and the second time royal coda was with them and kurt travis joined in on uneasy hearts and i was living the dream im that moment
Tim was also a memeber of Wolf & Bear and the album theyre dropping soon was his last. They dropped a new song/video clip not long ago and is deffs worth a listen.
I’m a 37 year old diesel mechanic and I almost cried amazing
Seeing this song live was the closest I’ve come to a ‘spiritual moment’ ever. Even on first listen it gave me chills - but live was just another experience. That said - the ending just made me want MORE. Just and incredible tribute to Tim.
Saw them yesterday, and damn, this melody goes HARD. And yet is also such an emotional & beautiful journey.
I felt that the song was definitely a journey and everybody pitching in on vocals was all over the place but in a good way. It reminds me of Man of the year where the song changes a lot, it takes you on a Journey. Man of the year is my favorite song from DGD currently. But this song is on another level. This song is just insane. I really love that everybody sang on it and I feel like, it was a beautifully composed tribute to Tim. I hope that the band continues to incorporate everyone’s vocals because everyone is sickly talented.
Man of the year has a similar vibe for sure, where it feels like everyone is going all out.
All over the place is DGD in a nutshell
This song is out of control good. I’ve been waking up with it in my head and it hasn’t left for days.
Good reaction + cool that you’re rocking the Edge Lifestyle gear.
This has such an aggressive Acceptance Speech-era sound. It’s great
This sounds nothing like Acceptance Speech. Either way Tilian is a horrible person and so is this song.
DGD Episode when?
I'm so excited to see them live next month!
They’re so good live. Every time I’ve seen them they’ve crushed it
The ending is basically a metaphor. Cut short the same ways Tim’s life was unfortunately cut short
the song was exported as a 24 bit file, thats why it sounds so clear, first dgd song to do so!
where?
I agree with your comment about this being one of the best songs that DGD has come out with in a longtime. Also I’m just a huge fan of Jon’s vocal style.
Excited to see this song live in October.
New Wolf & Bear (Tim’s other band) features Andrew and the video is also a tribute to Tim
Mothership is eqsily top 5 albums of all time for me. Will always love me some dgd.
shits amazing live as well. they opening their current tour with it
I can't get over the riff on the chorus, it's such a sweet ear worm
Opening riff sounds very Stranger Things-esque lol. I do really like it. This has to be one of DGDs best tracks
So glad i got to see this song live before Tillian left
All the different vocal parts remind me of a Ron Burgandy mashup lol
Not enough people will know what you mean by that :(
Andrew wells is just incredible, I’m always feeling them using him more often.
AW’s voice is on anther level.
Every era of this band has slapped! 👋🏻👋🏻 the most consistent bands ever.
I love the little callouts to their Robot series of songs in the video, and some of the song callouts in Jons lyrics (at least I think those were intentional). Just a ride all along the way
Yeah you noticed the same thing about Andrew’s voice, he seems to have brightened his tone a bit, maybe to be more complementary to Tilian? To the point where when Andrew is in his higher register and Tilian is in his lower register they can be hard to tell apart.
Anyways I had set aside DGD with all the Tilian stuff so I never really got into Jackpot Juicer, but Afterburner helped me get through my dad’s death, and knowing this song was in memory of Tim I had to give it a chance, and it absolutely wrecked me.
I loved Jackpot Juicer. Their lyrics are fantastic to me.
The ending is so amazing
Metalbirb - hope you're doing well man
Musically, it really just feels like more of the same. Great tribute!
Lets gooooooooo
This hits different when he was your favorite bassist
As a tribute song it would have been good to got a little cameo from Kurt and Johnny on it. Great tribute either way.
Eidola is releasing 2 albums in 2024
where did they announce that?
Tilian was my favorite singer from the time Mothership came out until Jackpot Juicer, i still think he's really talented, but Andrew's voice is SO DAMN GOOD. The highest high points on JPJ were his parts, with or without Tilian harmonizing.
Tilian is still better. But I like Andrew bringing some spice
@@thestoebzAndrew’s voice in DGD works because of how sparingly it’s normally used. That makes you really focus on his parts. His lyrics are more thoughtful. His tone is slightly darker. It’s a welcome new addition to the DGD sound. Oh and his guitar work is absolutely nuts too.
@@virg_lew03 yeah I know. I listen to Eidola as well. He’s a good vocalist for sure
Está bastante bien , ❤😘
DGD MEXICO? excelente canción!
I’ve been DGD fan since high school, I don’t mind tillian’s cleans vocals, but I wouldn’t be disappointed if they replaced him with Andrew. His voice is much better
I love tilians vocals. That being said I would love it Andrew stayed back up vocal and Kurt took back over. Kurt has improved immensely over years. I’ve seen him perform a few times over the last 2 years and Kurt to me will always be the best choice. Jonny is a the superior vocalist. But Kurt was the least problematic
for those that don't know the sudden end was due to his sudden end. Song is a solid 9/10 and an amazing tribute to a DGD member.
i love that they used AI pictures. reminds me of the video where they used stock videos from work places.
4:12 "Who's this now?" 0:23 "They sound a little played out." HOw on Earth can you say they sound played out when you don't even know the vocalists?
Mereka adalah salah satu band yg sangat saya suka selain BMTH!🤟🏿🤟🏿🤟🏿
Goddamn genius
Is it just me that desperately wants the song to continue after the build up at the end? Chills dude
I understand and respect if people no longer support this band after what Tilian did, but personally I've been enjoying their music for nearly a decade now and I don't see myself stopping. This song was shockingly amazing.
*Allegedly did. Let's remember that. Dropboxes of convos were shown
@@ugadawgs-ho8wd That doesn't work when Tilian literally admitted to it twice, both before and after his absence from the band.
@@ugadawgs-ho8wd For one conversation. He admitted to the other one basically..
@AI-senpai No he literally did not say the words or admit to anything involving sexual assault. You people really can twist words to fit your woke narrative. It's disgusting.
@@cbs785 Oh no buddy... He did basically admit to it. But ONE of the accusations was a lie, yes. The other has some truth to it. He basically DID admit to it. He admitted to basically forcing himself on her. She was pressured into accepting it.
Afterburner was definitely their most average record but i think Jackpot Juicer is like their second best they’ve done. It’s so good.
Andrew should have just replaced Tilian
Predicted the future
All of the AI art kinda cracks me up. Or at least I'm assuming it's ai art.
jackpod juicer was the wackest album by them. But they aint done yet!
whats this song is about ?
Shrek
Their sound has only gotten better. Not sure what you're referring to with that comment.
when things are "played out" is that the fault of the creator or the listener? for each of us to decide i suppose.. maybe someday i'll get sick of bacon.. but it'll always be there for me when i want it.
The last few DGD albums have been copy pasta for sure but in fairness they have landed on a fairly refined and modern sound so its not like they're recycling garbage
Like all things it's a matter of perspective but imo the boys are in a groove, not a rut
Yeah, I got sad there at the outtro. Deep vibes
Damn bots in the comments again, good stuff youtube.
Been enjoying the song for a while now, the last part always hits me in the feels but everytime i feel like it stops a bit abrubtly i guess?
Like i wanted a bit more or just a very extra lines, but maybe thats the intention. Either way gotta love Andrews vocals. Great reaction as always man.
I do believe this was their intention for it to end abruptly, sort of like a metaphor for the way Tims life ended so abruptly. Originally i agreed with you but knowing that makes it make sense.
@@micket6666 yeah exactly i figured something like that, and in context that makes it okay for me.
If you aren't choked up or balling by the end of Andrew's verse you are not a real fan
What a stupid thing to say. Been listening since the beginning. Just because you don’t cry doesn’t mean you aren’t a fan. Go gatekeep another band.
@@avengedfan420ify hey you can always be a piece of shit elsewhere.
wells........ its andrew wells.... lol
Video definitely a tribute, the song? Sounds like a fuck you to Tillians accuser and his welcome back to DgD song tbh 😂 lmao
I've always hated that extremely high pitched style of vocals but the instrumentals have always been top notch in dgd
Song's a great generic go at mainstream "metalcore" but that rap bit really throws it apart in a bad way
Wish Tilian didn’t do that shit
Well he didn't so you're all good.
Downtown battle mountain is just about the worst album you can introduce someone to lol they aren't even the same band for like 6 albums now.. I'm an OG LOSER but still man... just cause you dont like Johnny or the horrible production or the terrible screams.. doens't mean you wont like the new albums. if this song surprised you.. you havent been listening as much as you lead on
The song isn't even a tribute song except for a few lines lol. It's a stale attack on ex fans who wanted Tilian out of the band because of his assault accusations.
Truth hurts
Deserved
Songs cool, but i can't get over the Tillian shit. It's a no from me.
Good, you’re part of the reason this song was made (at least lyrically) so thanks and deuces 😂
@@tophfb Making a song about your rape accusations is very mature, especially when a large part of the same song is about the band member they lost.
I hope you eventually realize that Tillian isn't special and shit catches up eventually.
@@mpk6664 the chick lied and it was proven that she just wanted attention. She was just a clout chaser.
@@punchdrunkfunk23 Mikaela lied. She's a known lunatic.
Tillian, himself, said the original incident happened and apologized.
@@mpk6664When did he say he assaulted someone? Oh wait, he fucking didn't. You just want to believe he did to fulfill some kind of weird need to blindly believe a "victim"
Please listen to some Eidola... The "who is this??" made my heart hurt 😅🥲
I fucking hate that they used ai art.
They’re new album is better than all the other one
