my energy while watching this is simultaneously the guy sitting there calmly eating in a suit, but also the skeleton absolutely VIBING in the background
lmao I love this because I'm the exact opposite, mine is like "yes perfect finally something with almost enough stimulus to actually make u pay attention"
same here, i grew up around ppl who looked like this and im glad to see that this sort of stuff is still around considering i dont talk to a lot of my family or ppl i knew through them anymore
god I will NEVER forget hearing this song for the first time and having an emotional spaz attack durring the ‘GOTTA GET GOTTA GET GOTTAGOTTAGOTTA GET’ part
"this is not enough to prove it yet, i need to hit the bottom" This line hits differently for me as a person who struggles with mental health and sh. The way i feel was unvalidated and ive never got real help becasue what was happening with me wasnt seen as important. I felt like i NEEDED TO get worse for people to take me seriously so i can get help. I dont know.
My mental health recently has not been great and I really know what you mean. If have been putting off asking help because I am scared that nobody will believe me and that I need for everything to be worse so they do.
This band is unlike anything I’ve heard or seen. It feels like a combination of everything and then it’s also just it’s complete own genre all at the same time. I can’t stop listening
Theres like, 20 people shoved in this room. I feel like it takes multiple viewings to even understand what everyones doing. The video totally somehow suits the vibe of the song though.
I would like to mention my favorite parts from the video 1. The skeleton 2. Will getting accidentally hit in the head by one of the girls on the hoop and still going on. 3. The tattoo girl near the end not knowing what to do so she just does picks up random stuff and use it. 4. The bass player throwing balloon and a purple ball thing at will. 5. That one random guy eating like yogurt or something sitting on the floor in a business suit and somehow not getting anything in his food
I just have to say that every time I watch this music video I'm impressed by the visual metaphor created by the way it's filmed. The motionless camera, with no cuts, pans, zooms, or movement of any kind, contrasts really heavily with most music videos and makes the whole thing feel static and "stuck" despite the chaos being filmed. The fish-eye effect is kind of reminiscent of dissociation to me personally, a kind of warped and detached view of the setting. However, the video itself is packed full with as much chaos as possible: tattoos, dancing, destruction, wild partying, imagery of death, fantastical creatures, a businessman. Just representing that "this is not enough" - no matter how desperately he tries to fill the void by reckless behavior, partying, drugs, fantasies, work, everything falls flat, and nothing brings him back to reality in the way that he hopes. Each time he leans into the camera is a desperate plea for something, anything, to be enough, and nothing ever is. After I got over the original confused chaos of the first viewing of this music video I started to get kind of bored with it, because even though the song and the subject matter of the video have so much energy, it didn't translate through the way it was filmed. But now I interpret it as a very purposeful sense of helplessness and desperate attempts to fill a perpetual emptiness, and whether that was the original purpose of this music video or not, I think it's rad Just want to clarify that the vibes of this video are immaculate, and if chaos was the whole point of the video that's rad too and it was absolutely achieved. School has trained me to write multi-page essays on conspiracy-theory level interpretations and I'm using that knowledge to engage with media in a way that makes me happy, so whether it really is "that deep" or not, I really enjoy this video and think it's made in a really cool way.
no one's going to make a comment on how good of a piano player he is- like he's playing with one hand without looking or anything also- he put out the cigarette on the piano keys- thats neat 0:40 what a fun friend group
Honestly, I'm more surprised by the fact that he can play with all that crap on his keys. Sometimes I'll forget to pick up a rubber or my pencil will fall on the keys and playing is literally impossible
@@justabitsketchy as a pianist myself: if you practice and play something so many times you can literally just play it with your eyes closed. Been there, done that... but I can't imagine how annoying it must be when you play that way and you have some confetti stuck to your fingers. It's not impossible but not pleasant either XD
no one can deny that this seems like what a criminal who escaped prison would sing as he escaped and gets revenge on the person who caught them and killing them by strangulation
everyone talks about how will recalls something in 2012, but they fail to see that a few lines later he mentions his memory failing him about the specifics
one of my favorite characters in this video that isn’t mentioned as much is the guy playing the broken guitar who just starts SMASHING it against the wall later in the song
Archer girl, tatto guy and girl, acrobats in a loop, cello dude, sax dandy, mermaid tail, trombone pinstripe rainbow socks lady, guitar and battery, sparkle throwing twins, ilumination white ghost lady, colourful cloth dancer, pudding eater in suit, bass player, skeleton, and of course, bowler hat and piano feet. Edit: dude in front of mirror, and its not pudding, its cottage cheese
I recently found this music and artist via a online bro, and i am absolutely blow away from how good it is, absolutely been lovin the SELF-ISH album, Cheers mate!
I... I've got addicted to a non-metal musician's music for the first time in years. This video is such a masterpiece, the whole album this music is in.
Prior to watching this video, i thought will wood and the tapeworms sound like my adhd feels. Now i know that they also look like my adhd feels. I felt that video on more levels than i was aware of. Spectacular.
I did a presentation in middle school about this song and my teacher fell in goddamn love with the idea, but I was to embarrassed to play the song. Hope you're well, Ms. B. I hope she loves Will Wood now.
We had two bags of grass, 75 pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, and a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers … and also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of Budweiser, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls. Not that we needed all that for the music video shoot, but once you get locked into a serious drug collection, the tendency is to push it as far as you can.
@@artemiswallace8716 Though to be fair the dude was made into drugs, 2012 is literally a song about how he was so hopped up he could not remember anything from 2012 lol. (Though I believe now he's quit the stuff, so good on 'em.) Anyways it was pretty silly none-the-less that people took him at face value. Like I haven't even watched the movie and figured that had to be a reference, because if not that'd be a hella weird reply lmao.
BRO 1:43- 2:22 THIS IS SUCH A STIMMING THING NOW IVE BEEN PLAYING IT OVER AND OVER FOR LIKE HALF AN HOUR AND THE FLAPPY HANDS ARE REAL HAPPY EHEHEHEHEHEHEHEH My soul was crushed like a tall boy Underneath the boots on the curb And l'm still picking up my molars And putting them back in my face My name was soiled by a last call spill With a backwash swill and the blackout killed me Sober on impact from a fall from grace Take the road on higher ground And tell me, "Don't look down, you'll fall and break your back" But that just reminds me how there's more to be found beneath the black! This is not enough This is not enough to prove it yet No, I need to hit the bottom This is not enough This is not enough to prove it yet No, I need to hit the bottom!!!! EHEHEHEHE AHAHWHEHSJHDBFIDBCHUDNFKCBSJD :) (P.s. sorry for my rambling but like GOD MOTHER FCKING DAMN AHHHHEHEHUFBCJBFODNWO :3) Cool thanks for reading all the bullcrap I wrote >:3
Man this is the coolest music video I've probably ever seen, the amount of energy Will is putting into performing is amazing You can tell how much fun they were having, I can't imagine how loud it must have been while they were recording the video though I still don't know if that girl is actually getting tattooed, or the other guy is pantomiming
this song is definitely me and the boys discovering that fractals are the key to the answer of the universe and spiraling into insanity during our research
Holy shit this is amazing!!! I absolutely LOVE your style! I especially love that trombonist! I also play trombone. Please tell everyone how amazing they are!!!
There’s just a window in the back so I like to imagine someone, like, walking home from the grocery store or something, hearing some music, and glancing through a window to see: a woman getting a tattoo, a man playing a keyboard with one of his feet while another person stands on top of it, four people crammed onto one aerialist hoop thing, a mermaid??? Lying in the background??? A man bashing his guitar against a brick wall, and a skeleton dancing awkwardly in the corner, and god knows what else I missed here. Delightful
I'm obsessed with this song and video. The crazy mix of an olde-timey vibe with new visuals and insightful yet funny words hits me with just the right combo of familiarity and confusion / excitement. I don't know how you do it Will Wood, but you're amazing. Keep it up - I can't wait to see what you do next!
This music video reminds me of the dreams I've been having the last few years. Non of my dreams are good or bad, but they don't feel neutral either. Everything is chaotic without a meaning, making the chaos itself the focus. Like the static fisheye lens, there's a sort of dissociation present, different from the usual dream feeling. It's also forcefully leaves out context. So much is happening that it all looks destructive due to how close together everything is. And some of it might also be destructive in a more fitting context, but it's hard to imagine what that would look like. And then there's Will Wood himself. Clearly the focal point of the video but he fades away in the chaos, only ever so often being able to break lose from the background. Similar to how I only have a few moments in my dreams where I'm not being stressed out by something or someone. Where I get to process everything instead of the focus being on my surroundings until I forget I'm still there.
This is the first song I've heard of Will Wood & The Tapeworms and now I listen for I don't know what time to all their songs and I think I am addicted now, just listening to them non-stop for the last few days
will wood trying to perform wildly while also trying to make sure he doesnt get wacked in the face by the people on the hoop behind him is a master piece
Sorry for the sudden question. What do these lyrics mean? This song is too difficult for me to translate. I would appreciate it if you could explain it in simple words.
@@집보내줘요엉엉 oh sure! the main message of the song is about his experience with hallucinations and his previous drug addiction. He mentions how it affected his memory and how he needed to hit rock bottom which links to the "hand me my shovel im going in" showing he wanted to go deeper and explore. hopefully that was simple enough :) his songs are kind of confusing :/
Not gonna lie those people on the rings have mad respect from me there strong as hell. Also I would only wish to sound that clean on my sax what the heck.
I'm so sad that I found Will Wood so late in the game! But, I'm so happy Will Wood's music is in my life now! I hope Will continues this musical journey❤
it does, the sax at the beginning is remastered, the hawk screech is missing, the glass breaking is missing, & there’s a new sound effect at the last “i need to hit the bottom”
That's adorable! Our host (me) and a few other alters really dig his music too. Honestly it's weirdly relatable as a system? The chaotic vibes and existential topics of his earlier stuff like this, as well as his recovery songs from the most recent albums.
Imagine thinking "I'm gonna go get a tattoo done today" then walking into this
That would be so fun
i wish i could, its like whole another world
*finishes tattoo*
"Hey guys, can we do another take? there was a boom mic in shot"
That would go estly be awesome :D

damnit wrong comment, how did i get this lost
This has the energy of someone obsessively solving a paranormal mystery that should not be solved.
Definitely. I see it as someone obsessed with solving some unsolved scandal that ends in them grave robbing to find enough proof of their suspicions.

So much is happening that it all looks destructive due to how close together everything is. And some of it might also be destructive in a more fitting context, but it's hard to imagine what that would look like.
And then there's Will Wood himself. Clearly the focal point of the video but he fades away in the chaos, only ever so often being able to break lose from the background. Similar to how I only have a few moments in my dreams where I'm not being stressed out by something or someone. Where I get to process everything instead of the focus being on my surroundings until I forget I'm still there.
That fisheye lens is doing a lot of work in making this all feel like a weird dream.
what goes on in my brain 24/7 (including william wood)
my favorite character is the dude in the suit next to mr wood just eating cat food or something
Same fr
no matter how many times I watch this, I am constantly finding new things/people
but none of them will ever be better than the skeleton
This is the first song I've heard of Will Wood & The Tapeworms and now I listen for I don't know what time to all their songs and I think I am addicted now, just listening to them non-stop for the last few days
everyone in this video is just straight up VIBIN
oh how i wish i can vibe like that...
thank you will woods music for the only thing keeping me sane
This is pure chaos and I love it
will wood trying to perform wildly while also trying to make sure he doesnt get wacked in the face by the people on the hoop behind him is a master piece
Sorry for the sudden question. What do these lyrics mean? This song is too difficult for me to translate. I would appreciate it if you could explain it in simple words.
@@집보내줘요엉엉 oh sure! the main message of the song is about his experience with hallucinations and his previous drug addiction. He mentions how it affected his memory and how he needed to hit rock bottom which links to the "hand me my shovel im going in" showing he wanted to go deeper and explore. hopefully that was simple enough :) his songs are kind of confusing :/
@@집보내줘요엉엉 i could try translate it for you if you want?
Not gonna lie those people on the rings have mad respect from me there strong as hell.
Also I would only wish to sound that clean on my sax what the heck.
3:17 Oh my god he was so close to getting kicked. I'm convinced he has spider-sense now.
LMAO
wwwist he eevn dodged it wtfdv
I'm so sad that I found Will Wood so late in the game! But, I'm so happy Will Wood's music is in my life now! I hope Will continues this musical journey❤
Every time i watch this i notice something new on the background °-° ...
i cant imagine how long it must have taken to get all of that confetti out of the keyboard
hes probably still finding pieces in it til this day
Is it just me or does this version of the song sound slightly different than the one on the album?
it does, the sax at the beginning is remastered, the hawk screech is missing, the glass breaking is missing, & there’s a new sound effect at the last “i need to hit the bottom”
@@resident_simon I wonder if the music video is more like the remastered album version on Spotfy then.
@@resident_simon its just not the same without the hawk screech
I swear to everything holy and unholy, each time I watch this video it's a slightly different one, I'm certain of it.
3:44 i felt that head bonk 😭
we are a system and our little made a playlist on Spotify! this is the only song.
That's adorable! Our host (me) and a few other alters really dig his music too. Honestly it's weirdly relatable as a system? The chaotic vibes and existential topics of his earlier stuff like this, as well as his recovery songs from the most recent albums.
theres so much going on, and I love the skeleton guy in the back doing a little jig, because thats me while listening to this-
I love the fact that there is just a guy on top of the piano chilling
This band is so. damn. good. its music and aesthetic is something that I find so oddly comforting. I kind of want to be Will Wood's friend.
I’ve seen this video a few times, and I just noticed the very REAL TATTOO being given, as well as the dancing skeleton in the back right
my mental health is the guy in the bottom eatin cheese
3:41 how to play a piano with your foot
You guys got style~
You put on a Will Wood song and think it’s a bit weird sometimes then you watch the music video 😭 (This is perfection)
This song is like a fever dream
i need the original audio of this video so badly
