Not familiar with him but judging by his interview hard to tell how he gets hate. Seems like a great guy might have to check them out when they role through Chicago!
It’s his music and his attitude towards his haters, he won’t admit he’s and industry plant, and doesn’t take criticism for his surface level lyrics, unhealthy and bad screams and average vocal performance
@@hentailover3659I listened to the music, it is certainly not for me. I thought the lyrics were surface level, but I was speaking to his character. he seems like an ok guy. is the industry plant thing proven? or are you just assuming that. If people are hating he can handle it however he wants. I dont really care if someone doesn't take criticism. it's up to him if he wants to take it or not.I really do not understand what you are trying to get at here.
I think he's fantastic. Love that he combines a punk attitude with a more traditional rock sound. Heaven Was Full has an amazing guitar solo, as do several of his other songs. I may not agree with him on everything but that doesn't matter. I definitely admire him & can't wait to see everything he accomplishes in the years to come... He's totally right about the crabs in the bucket thing.
I took my 10 year old daughter to her first concert to see TX2, We Came As Romans and In This Moment. TX2 did a great job, they had a fun set and my daughter and I had a blast. We were front row for TX2. We spoke with their bassist and guitarist they were so nice, they spoke to my daughter and she was so happy. She still says it was the best night of her life!
I've been to one of his concerts. Almost everyone in his fan base is super supportive. Evan is also just a super nice guy. He brings positivity wherever he goes.
The thing with the emo community and their love for hating, I think it’s because they don’t want their community being colonized by outside groups, ESPECIALLY TAYLOR SWIFT FANS, so when they feel that someone might be an outsider, they want them out. It sounds racist, but it makes sense when you realize that the group is fighting to stay alive, and is afraid of being drowned out by more popular groups invading their space.
I've been a fan of TX2 since his album 99 proof, and to see the fan base grow is amazing! I don't think he deserves all the hate he gets, but hating on an artist is something people will always do. I like how he embraces it though, I think it takes a lot of guts and confidence to be uniquely yourself, not everyone can do that.
I think the problem lays in people not wanting bands to have subcategories and not understanding a song can relate to many genres and a solitary song description these days is just silly since it can fit in soo many subcategories now. People are so focused on trying to label “one” genre or category on a band when the reality is music is “art”
I think it’s less about if he’s serious or not, and more about the fact that there has been a pattern of fetishization of goths in the past. even if it’s a joke, it very much plays into those patterns, and that’s why people found it offensive or problematic. it spreads the wrong impressions.
@@that_gay_pringle1072The fact that there were people that believed that - the very fact of which is backed up by your original comment - proves that it was not obvious satire (or at least flew over many people’s heads) and thus is still a damaging message.
@WoolyPutty9 To that I have two responses - 1: He's currently touring with Avatar, Ice Nine Kills, and In this Moment. Those crowds ain't for him. I actually saw one of the shows. I appreciated the energy tx2 brought onstage but he still sucks. 2: You can be popular and still suck. Justin Bieber is 13th in the world
@@Tisbilly just remember that we’re on the side of history that chooses to appreciate his music instead of taking time out of our day to mindlessly hate on him
Everyone who hates on Evan are noobs they are missing out on so great music and a new era of music if you hate on a TX2 a guy try to chase his dream you need to get out of here I love TX2 and his music has helped get me through things.
The secondhand embarrassment I felt when he thought there were five heads on mount Rushmore shortened my life by about ten years. I have a right to hate the man who prematurely ended my life
TX2 is one of my favorite artists! “So Numb” is my new favorite song of his now. He did amazing work! I can understand bc he is bisexual, that’s where the hate comes from. But everything else, idk how people can hate him.
Black out tattoos like Ronnie got and MGK are so sketchy. Ronnie said he did it to get rid of past things about himself or certains times but his tattoos were amazing!
Evan probably had a filter on by accident lol because my mom once video called me with a hat filter, and she didn't know how to use the app too well and I thought it was a real hat at first so we were talking to each other with the filter on for a good while before realizing it was there was a filter on. She didn't even notice the hat the whole time 😂😂😂😂😂
This kid is Amazing!!! Been following them for the last few years and I’ve seen TX2 several times and met the guys a couple of times! Very down to earth and friendly. Great vocalist and lyricist. My Favorite Emo Kid!!! 🤘🏼🩸🖤
pretty much every person looks a bit nervous when they're on a podcast, like "oh sh-t what if i say something that in ten years will be pulled out of nowhere and get me cancelled"
I like some of TX2’s songs but I think what keeps me on the fence is that I wasn’t sure if he was for real or just a parody but that was only because I first found his TikTok and found a lot of it really funny. Secondly like he said in the interview, he leans into the hate but it’s almost to his detriment. He has a tendency to be too rage baity online. I’ll never try to speak for an entire scene or a band/artist especially if they’re dead but his Linkin Park cover was genuinely bad and I would like to see him get better as an artist but he if he just continues egging on haters with possibly intentionally divisive songs or promotion his career could plateau
Oh nahhhhhhh, go look up user reviews all over the place for "Burn" and you'll see how much there is out there. Like damn, it's not a perfect song, but people are shitting on it and shitting on him over it like the song has personally massacred their family and raped their dog.
Do I personally think his music is not good? Yes. Do I find his persona online obnoxious? Yes. Do I find it entertaining? Yes. Do I think he's actually a nice human being? Yes.
Jesea dude you’ve got to get more TX2 on Octane! These guys are gonna go far. As a rocker and metal head, I dig his music. I am an OG emo kid. Take me back to my high school days 😂. Three cheers for sweet revenge was on repeat. Edit - MGK is straight up awful, both in music and life.
i’m sorry but some of TX2’s music is straight up unlistenable. yeah, i get it, it’s his trauma. we all have fucking trauma. doesn’t make songs like Burn any less cringe, trashy, absolutely ridiculous. aside from the production none of it is imaginative or well made. if you enjoy his music, that’s absolutely fine though! i am not saying you’re lesser or that TX2 as a person is lesser for making the music he does. i personally just cannot stand it.
I come from a family of singers and have been told I'm pretty good. I also play the guitar. Having even a little bit of musical background lets you look at the slop he releases through a critical lense 🥶
@@Tisbilly Slop? He makes great music, and he's gotten better ever since Randy McNally. So Numb, Swing At Me, Degrade Me, Thank You For..., No Place Like Home, Vampire By Rumor, A Choice..., 6 Seconds Left, Sex Sells (Hard), Am I A Ghost?, Burn, I Would Hate Me Too, Say You're Insecure (Without Saying It), and DROP DEAD. All great songs and what music have you made, if any, and what is your understanding of the principals of making and producing music?
I don't dislike him personally, but he is a bit try-hardy. It's just this new wave of Pop Punk & Emo comes off really corny to someone who's been listening to Alternative Music for the last 20 years. If you like TX2 that's totally fine, and I hope the guy is very successful. But in the same way MGK is just a caricature of Emo, this dude is basically "Ronnie Radke at Home".
Black Wedding is fire and So Numb is relatable as all hell
This is definitely TX2's year, I'm so excited for more songs coming! Thanks for this interview Jesea Lee!

I love TX2 so f#cking much!!!
lol #ucking
Same here

For as long as haters exist, we'll be here to balance and even tip the scale❤️🖤
As a "real metalhead" I would just like to say that TX2 is one my favorite bands.
As a "real emo" TX2 deserves more than the hate he receives.

How do you hear “Goth Dommie Mommy” and think that he is serious?

@@sasha-is-eepy he’s made multiple videos saying not to fetishize goth women

Love TX2! Brilliant modern takes on classic 2000s emo genre. 🎉
Listening to their songs I heard Paramore immediately in Pull The Plug. PS I like guys without facial hair they look young and heroic
Stop saying tx2 is cringe just because he says goth dommy mommy he is making fun of people who say that
Who wants to be like TX2

Numb is fire and all the other songs too. Can't wait to see you in UK!

What a sweet interview 🥰💖love TX2 🖤♥️
TX2 is amazing! I used to be a Myspace famous scene queen but I honestly think TX2 is amazing and very emo.
You were Hanna Beth and Audrey Kitching?
amazing to see how passionate of a person he is
