Song by TWRP
SOMEBODY GET US OUT OF THIS DIGITAL NIGHTMARE!
how, how do we get you out! D:
wanna trade places? I’ll gladly go digital!
but then who will make us content?
Havve please sign my chest
Al Gore should have never invented the internet.
How are you guys this good every single time
Did not expect to see Rare Earth commenting on a TWRP music video.
@@oscarkotovsk They've been the house band of my stage show Generator every time we've put it on. Great dudes. Great band.
@@RareEarthSeries I didn't know that, and they are amazing indeed!
Love your videos, as well. I'd love to see your show, now!
I hope to see you & them live someday! Cheers and thanks for the answer!
@@RareEarthSeriesyeah they seem so fckin chill and fun to be around
Woah, I am also pleasantly surprised to see you here. Thanks for covering Oceania's islands.
Wasn't expecting TWRP to make a Don't Hug Me I'm Scared MV about the torturous existence of a content creator, but here we are.
Except there wasn't any gore. Well, besides when they gored that spaghetti lol
Not everything with puppets on the internet has to be dhmis
How in the everliving fuck besides aesthetics does this relate to Don't Hug Me I'm Scared? Become sentient please.
@@crunchylettuce5446 It's funny how worked-up you're getting over this.
Both use puppets and a lighthearted facade to express the negatives of consumerism. There's _a_ connection
I don't want to spend too much time breaking down the subtext in this song. Instead, I just want to let TWRP know that they are true artists and have been my favorite band since I first saw them live side-by-side with NSP during the Rock Hard Tour. I hope you guys can see that there are people who value you as artists and you don't NEED to push out content for us... though survival under Capitalism requires the constant production of content for artists (sadly)
cannot get over puppet phobos’s little :O expression
Like a combination of his old and current helmet!
He looks like the perfect fusion between him and a shy guy from Mario 2
he looks like a peashooter :D
The cutest, looks like a lil bionicle
8O
oh my god. TWRP puppets singing about the soul crushing reality of content culture. this might be my favorite music video of all time.
"We'll even play 'Freebird'!!!"... I felt that in my soul, man.... Best wishes and good luck.
Life Party confirmed
One of my favorite parts of that song lol@@staticbuzter452
This video's style really puts the Rock into Fraggle
this is such an infectious bop for such a depressing topic. i love it
Dude right?
Let me remind you of an old group named Daft Punk. This song sounds like it came off Homework
@@blackman2101 dude it's only been 4 years since they retired that schtick.. it's not an "old" thing like it was 30 years ago. and yeah since daft punk retired twrp have basically stepped up to fill the void.
as for do i know them? i own interstella 5555 on dvd
@@Spekor
Their debut album, Homework, turned 27 in January
@@sonicfan2486 again.. it's only been FOUR YEARS!! since they stopped doing the daft punk stuff..
the comment i was replying to made it sound like they havn't been doing daft punk for over a decade. also they have been regularly releasing previously unreleased material the last couple years so daft punk might not be actively recording but they arn't "gone"
I'd watch Phobos blend tiny blenders all day forever
You mean all night forever!
This is a dark time in the TWRP universe
this is a dark time in OUR universe mate
FEED THE FEED THE MACHINE, GOTTA FEED THE MACHINE🗣️‼️🤖🥪
I hope one day the algorithm can respect groups like this more
Muppet jams making my hair stand on end.
Dr. Teeth would be proud.
Seeing TWRP puppets doing internet trends made me so unbelievably happy you have no idea
I am so proud that my government provided funding for this. It's a step in the right direction, and the healing can begin.
Would you be happy if they provided funding to something you didn't like? What if they partially funded something you vehemently oppose? I'm a big fan of this song/video/content and glad it was funded... but also feel like Government's use of power be assessed based on whether we'd like it if the same power was (ab)used in a way we don't like (despite being in favour of it... *this* time)
@ashleydavy2812 I'm not Canadian...but if art (especially independent) is being funded by the government that is a good thing, even if that art is of a subject I don't like or find tasteless.
It's money going towards people like us, starving artists or the average working class and less money that's going to corporations and monopolies.
TWRP continue to feel like they were hand crafted to make me specifically filled with joy
IT WAS FUN BEING ON SET FOR THIS OMG
It looks that way! It must have taken up so much work too, so glad to hear it was enjoyable!
Now this is what I call The Perfect Product
It was made just for me!
Such great value
Is this content 4 me?!
Look I'm not saying I'd buy merch with the twrp meme panels on it but uhhhhh, I'd buy it all
As adorable as the entire music video was, Doctor Sung's big ol smile at the end was the most precious.
The amount of times I've seen Dr sung overdose on mysterious substances is more than I'd like to see
Yay, BURNOUT!
This is the 5th new release from TWRP that made me like "Shit, that's my favorite song now"
I love this music video, and besides being silly and cute I think it perpetuates an idea a lot of us are feeling whether we are artists or not. Seems like attention spans are getting shorter, time is getting faster, and nothing can sit anymore. It’s always on to the next thing, the flashiest thing, the most marketable thing. Where is the singularity? Where does it end? Can the actual Havve do the cheese challenge? What is the cheese challenge? So many existential questions. This is indeed a dark time in both the TWRP and IRL worlds.
0:50 im at a loss for words
Is this loss?
Mpreg Phobos
Art is a Phobos puppet doing a guitar solo with spaghetti poured all over him. Also TWRP, since I first heard Ladyworld a few years ago you have been my favourite band, and we all appreciate the Content 4 Us
you guys fill the daft punk shaped hole in my heart
YES!!! As soon as Daft Punk basically said "The End" TWRP swooped in and is literally the next best thing
Before this my favorite music video was bright blue sky. This is a masterpiece.
honest to god there's no music video but you GOTTA listen to A Human's Touch
I think my favorite part of this whole music video is your puppets *barely touched* their instruments. It really hammers home the art vs content struggle 0:32
What a sad state of affairs that artists are required to CONSTANTLY get their name out there. There's no end. Your art isn't allowed to speak for itself because the attention span of the algorithm moved on while you were doing your warm ups
Good album guys, I can't wait to see you live in April 🧡 💙 ♥️ 🖤 🤍
Love that the Canadian government payed for part of this. Rad video, great work! The album is pretty amazing too
The Spaghetti Scene now lives rent-free in my head forever.
Real Art🔥
We're puppets for the machine.
Bet the reason they used puppets was purely to avoid being covered in spaghetti, as that is clearly the most essential part to the video
3:14
Me in the throws of slop-ecstasy when I receive the slop from the content tube.
Everyone devouring muppet spaghetti while Phobos shreds on guitar is immaculate
As an artist who also really likes spaghetti, this video really spoke to me. It's so hard to just make art when the social media algorithms push you down unless you're constantly creating tons of stuff all the time.
also i can't believe you made me look at loss
with my own eyes
Not even kidding when I say this is the defining bop/music video of the decade.
one time back in hamilton my friend and i were last in line to just get autographs, TWRP ended up letting us take some pics and chat just for a very short time and this was yearrrrrs ago, but to this day i still support this band not just bc of that but bc they are creative and fun and make excellent music this latest album is incredible
Despite dealing with the dystopian content machine, this video is absolutely adorable. Great props to the musicians and video artists/director
"Boy dinner" made me laugh out loud
Very good! As someone who quit social media, I appreciate it. The stress of it isn't worth it!
It’s giving Don’t hug me I’m scared and I’m loving
So is Lord Phobos the resident chef of TWRP?
I guess it makes sense because he was certainly cooking during Dance Floor Cold War
Someone's gotta feed the machine
How a TWRP video with puppets made me introspective about my life and career?
This perfectly encapsulates why the current music industry, and hell, ANY artistic form of media, just feels like a void. You can try so so hard for so long and never reach anything or anyone simply because all art is just "content" now. It's really depressing.
Maybe the real content was inside us all alooong
The real content was the friends we made along the way.
Got that Canada sponsorship. Y'all have come a long way! Can't wait to see y'all on the tour in RVA! And as always the music is fantasitc
I found out about this band yesterday but I'm already so obsessed, the songs are so catchy and they scratch my brain so well. I can't wait to hear more from this band!!
When I first listened, I liked it. When I listened to it again, I *really* liked it. It's amazing how infectious this groove is.
THIS ALBUM IS SO AWESOME GUYS
Just at the Boulder show last night. Thanks for the show, guys. It was a lot of fun!
Coming back for a rewatch after attending the Digital Nightmare tour. The concert continues to provide a scathing critique of social media culture and its impact on artists. That social media wont stop pressuring you to click/purchase/consume until it takes everything you have.
The text on the screen in this video where the artists beg to be released from this Sisyphean cycle is incredibly powerful.
In addition, the band members being portrayed by puppets adds another layer. Perhaps they feel like they are just puppets, empty shells churning out content for the hope to break through to audiences and be able to continue to pursue music.
TWRP, if y'all read this, thanks for all the hard work youve put in. You're my favorite band and you deserve all the success in the world. Keep on groovin!
Don't Hug Me I'm Scared vibes from this. Love it.
watching this on repeat. man im crying.. pursuit of art and happiness only to have to bend to the will of others in order to get the privilege of creativity
The Havve fade-in at 2:30 was so slick.
Loove that part
Remember, we coined the term "content creator" to refer to an artist who is so uncreative that we feel embarrassed calling them an artist.
TWRP are not content creators, they are artists. They make art.
No that’s not right, every UA-camr is a content creator or influencer, these terms flawed as they are, were to give a more specific name to the phenomenon happening, the issue doesn’t have to do with making content itself (or in uncreative content, which the good UA-camrs all feel like the are guilty of), it’s the pushiness placed upon content creators that they can’t just make a video and step away for a while whether from UA-cam itself encouraging and trying to help UA-camrs through their tutorials/propaganda, the UA-cam algorithm unfairly and inconsistently holding content creators to regular uploads, or the fans expecting or demanding weekly uploads or regularly scheduled content, TWRP is both here making music and content and is struggling to figure out the balance because they want to make their art, but they need money to survive and so they need to make something that will get viewers, without selling themselves all the way, so they create this beautiful piece of satire that ironically is content, but also art
@@vlogily8043 yeah I 100% agree to that take
No we didn’t, this is in your head. Art is in hindsight, content creation is why it gets made it in the first place.
Never before have I wished so much for a behind-the-scenes video
I like to imagine the job of “puppet wrangler” involves a lasso and horse.
The fact you uploaded this in 4x3 with no black borders only adds to the sheer level of cool you have. The more you make, the cooler you guys get!
Please dont feel obligated to create content. we're happy with your music and going to see your shows.
But music and shows are content, haha!
@@nicholasrohrman I’d argue music and shows are art. 😉
I love these puppet designs so much, they're clearly very well made and the puppeteering was also great, it can be very hard to get puppets to face cameras consistently so I imagine filming this was very fun but probably time-consuming as hell. Love it all that much more knowing it came out so well!!
Commander's frown mouth is so cute 🥺 the spaghetti montage was so smooth and beautiful
I've been loving the new album.
First off love the new album! Very good and I love the darker edge to it!
Secondly y'all can take a break if you need! We'd understand! The machine isn't important you guys are!
I love the image of Phobo’s shredding a guitar lick while covered in a very strange amount of spaghetti.
I like hearing a band's style influences in their music.
Loving the Don't Hug Me I'm Scared style message and video style
❤ Please bring these guys on tour.
This js absolutely phenomenal, both the song and the video, TWRP stay winning
Content Consumed. Bless you beautiful space men
Thank you for covering the weird feeling of trying to make it on youtube, but in a funny puppety way!
You really captured the horrifying feeling of trying to go bigger and more dangerous just to catch more eyes. Makes you wonder if there's a better way to help build an audience that supports more safer content.... Nah, someone hand me a Tidepod, gotta try this out myself.
I want to make something clear - All four of you fellas are so genuine and passionate about what you do; It's clear you just have a wonderful time on stage! Your music is part of the reason I chose to pursue a career to learn ASL and interpret music and concerts. Even if the way the world is may has a total bullshit view and seems to prefer quantity over quality, you guys are the best as you are.
Side Note: Maybe we can finder a way to get this digital nightmare in a tiny blender and rid you of it that way? 🤔
This music video is SOOOOO perfect for this song, absolutely LOVING the new album!! See ya at the tour!! 💙
Since I found that one dark souls 3 video playing atomic karate I have been on a journey with this incredible band and the incredible artists that make its members. One day I would love to see you live, and share to you how much your music means to me

FIIIIIRRRREEE WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLL
@@sleigh_taroth6778 hell yeah
This has been stuck in my head since I've heard it
This is incredible
TWRP is incredible
I can't believe it took me until last year to find this band, can't wait to see y'all in April!
This album Is so amazing!!!
Thank you guys for making amazing music for the entire world to love!!! ❤
I would love to see remakes of all their previous music videos with these puppets.
Were those fish flying at Meouch a Swedish Chef gag? Seen and appreciated.
This song and video are so criminally underrated good LORT this is good.
Gotta say, Havve Hogan was already probably my favorite member (sorry Doc, Commander, and Lord) and I absolutely love his crossed eyes in puppet form
Would preorder a full set of plushes based on these puppets, amazing video and amazing song!
I got to see these guys last night live, it was an 11/10 show. Absolutely incredible
4 years listening this guys and i find the channel now 😵
WE AINT MAKIN IT OUT OF THE ONLINE CONTENT FARMS WITH THIS ONE 🗣🔥🔥🔥
This has easily become a new favorite. You guys continue to keep cranking out banger and banger. It’s ridiculous.
Literally my favorite band EVER. TWRP never misses, every song of theirs makes me want to get up and groove until I pass out, and this song both grooves AND hits the topic of art and the Machine that is the internet. As soon as I got rid of social medias I had a lot more fun with drawing whatever I like. Go TWRP!! (I wanna eat boy dinner with Havve... learn some sick drum tips too maybe..)
Gotta love the detail that the more content they are creating the more views they are getting
At the start they had 10-18 views
At the end they got more then 150+
I... I feel that topic but those puppets are phenomenal. I'd love to see those more. ❤
SPECTACULAR WORK TO THE BOYS AND EVERYONE INVOLVED!!! ❤
I'm utterly charmed by the fact you all did your own puppetry on that one. Haave is transcendent.
Also wow, I just noticed the puppets themselves are so good & on-brand because they're from Keith Sheppard, who is also you guys' costume crafter. What a labour of love from you all, despite the cynical soul-crushing aspect of it all.
Look, ya'll can take a break if you need it. I'm happy with your discography as it is. You're legends already.
Really feeling that digital nightmare man. Y'all are phenomenal artists, put that art first and foremost
I embrace all the content that keep me awake froom the numbness of 'content'
I love this band.
