To be fair Finn, Jon has come out before and said his lyrics can mean LITERALLY NOTHING. he likes to play with rhythmic patterns and grammatical devices. My friend and I like to say Jon's lyrics are either the most insane thing on the planet OR the most deep philosophical shit ever lol
I was on the side of "Jon's lyrics are nonsense" for the longest time..., but my wife sat me down about a month ago and got DEEP into the meaning of the lyrics (at least her interpretation). I can say now that I am now a believer in the great philosopher, Jon Mess. Philosopher King, if you will.
100% based for Fuck Marry Kill. Tilian would raise our children with a gentleness and love my father never showed me. And it would make me love him even more.
I find Tillian and Jonny's voices so inhuman and unobtainable that Kurt is my favorite vocalist. He just sounds like a regular guy singing his heart out. Maybe its nostalgia. But when im writing a certain kind of music its usually in Kurt's voice. I love his voice, and his solo stuff is so good id hate for him to go unnoticed. He's been my favorite vocalist since i was 12, and still is.
I lost it at the Alex Terrible DLC costume bit, haha. I could watch you Mystery Science Theatering music videos all day, I have work during your stream hours unfortunately. And Richard Scarry, what a throwback.
Even though we dont always agree on stuff Finn you are one of my favorite TH-camrs, much love dude and appreciated how you answer some of my Instagram messages/suggestions haha . Loving the new DGD tried to listen to older stuff but didn't grab me as much as the stuff with Tillian as his pop sensibility really aids in the cohesiveness of the songs!
Maybe a hot take, but i think Tillian is just an overall superior vocalist to Johnny Craig. Craig is great, but theres other people who kinda sound like him, Tillian is an entirely unique vocalist that does it well. Poor Kurt, dude was vocalist on some of their overall best songs (blue dream etc).
I think Tilian is more technically skilled than either of the others, but that comes with the downside of sounding like a fucking keyboard a good amount of the time. On Mothership I thought he was perfect, because he added some grit to his voice in places, and that made the emotions come through a lot clearer for me. In the original mix of Acceptance Speech dude straight up sounds like a synth in some places, and while I loved that record, that aspect definitely bothered me more than any other complaints I had about it.
I just saw them yesterday night…. God damn. So fucking good. Tilian was fucking ON. Andrew helped with a few higher parts, but Tilian was fucking crushing it. Still on a high. Saw knocked loose and movements last week too….. been one of the best weeks of my old life.
"if you dig into the screaming lyrics, I'm sure there's meaning" Also Jon: *forgets all of his lines on Mutual Fear and needs Eidola's manager to send them to him*
Their videos are top tier, even when a song is kinda meh, like this one. Their robot-focused animation videos are a great story... cant wait where they take this weirdness...
I don’t get the argument that Johnny is a better singer than Tilian. Tilian is better in almost every technical level you can measure, I just think people really like Johnny’s tone and confuse that for being a better singer
Finn,you are the second biggest "heterosexual gay man".in the world LOL. I am the biggest one and my wife seeems to be the only one who understands that if I compliment another man on his looks or charm means the exact opposite everyone else thinks. Se are so sure about being straight, we got no problems admiring other men. Just sayin.... Have a good day , greetings from Zagreb Croatia!!!!
My biggest criticism of DGD's music is that it always feels very unresolved and "Wandery". Between the hyperactive lead guitar, and Tillian's R&B type vocal lines the melody's just wander around without going anywhere. I felt that on Artificial Selection this got addressed to some degree, with some stronger chorus melodies that offered a nice contrast. Unfortunatly it doesnt seem like they've decided to continue in that direction.
If you talked about the music about 20% more and the video 20% less, this would actually be good content. For now, the best thing I can say is that you look a lot like the dude from "Best Ever Food Review Show", to the point where your face kind of triggered Déjà Vu for me.
@@FinnMckentyPRMBA Maybe you should consider doing that less when it's a MUSIC-video. At least if the channel is supposed to cover music more than video.
Who in the fuck could possibly describe Jonny Craigs vocal skills as better than Tillian? If you put them both in a room alone and had them sing any given chorus, Tillian would destroy Jonny any day of the week. There is no world where Jonny out performs Tillian period.
Love DGD, but they're quickly becoming the Call of Duty or Assassin's Creed of post hardcore. I understand the mass appeal and financial stability of releasing banger after banger, but to me it's becoming stale after the last 2 albums. They got successful on the back of their silly and experimental nature, with bangers thrown in for good measure. It just doesn't feel as purposeful or focused as it used to be, and even with all of the musicians firing on all cylinders it feels super safe. Would gladly wait 4 years for something boundary pushing and detailed like ALLB's No Place, over waiting 18 months for 18 more bangers that sound the same as the last 18 bangers. That's just my opinion, I'm super glad to see them get the recognition they deserve.
I'll take afterburner 2, but your point stands. We'll see about the other songs. We can only hope for a bit of a shake up next time. Still glad they're not going full pop
be honest the music is good but i really bored of the instru of dgd is almost always the same and the vocal melody is the same it's sad they can do better
Does anyone else find it irritating that he's pausing the video every 2-5 secs? Like, just listen to the song as a whole, comment during if you have to, and THEN go after the points you find weird/funny. Like, am i being crazy? With that being said, this is the 1st DGD song i've ever listened to, and holy shit, what is this??? 🤣🤣 Is this what's going on inside a gay metalheads head? 🤣 (don't mean that as an insult. Just trying to explain the "fruity" vibes).
Fruity vibes? You have about 15 years of storytelling to catch up on to even come close to understanding WTF is going on.... and you still won't have a clue haha. I'm not sure if musically DGD creates concept albums, but album art and video clips generally run on a theme album to album... for whatever reason, we have been given fruit this time (as opposed to robots, creatures etc...) It's all fun though.
Come hang out on Twitch! www.twitch.tv/finnmckenty
I appreciate Finn's level of thirst for Tilian
As someone with the same thirst I also appreciate it
Finn simping for Tillian isn't what I expect to see in a Punk Rock MBA video
That's where you're wrong kiddo. here on the second channel, we simp all day!
Second channel Finn is a handsome man enjoyer
Its what iv come to love and expect
Wrong. That’s the whole reason we come here for is to simp.
Lmfaoo exactly what I was thinking but you know what, I’m simping with him
To be fair Finn, Jon has come out before and said his lyrics can mean LITERALLY NOTHING. he likes to play with rhythmic patterns and grammatical devices. My friend and I like to say Jon's lyrics are either the most insane thing on the planet OR the most deep philosophical shit ever lol
there is nothing quite as philosophical as "riding a rhino, pico de gayo"
There is a couple of moments when you think - yep there is a meaning in thig gibberish... but then he just throw a bagel on your face...
don't forget to clap for plants!
"we all came here just to fap" hits harder than you might think
I was on the side of "Jon's lyrics are nonsense" for the longest time..., but my wife sat me down about a month ago and got DEEP into the meaning of the lyrics (at least her interpretation).
I can say now that I am now a believer in the great philosopher, Jon Mess.
Philosopher King, if you will.
We asked Jon the meaning of "Honey Revenge" lyrics and he told us to "think of it from a cats perspective".
Beautifulz
Nine and a half minute video that is at least 6 minutes of Finn staning Tillian’s arms 🤣🤣🤣
I honestly expected nothing lest from previous DGD videos from Finn haha
100% based for Fuck Marry Kill. Tilian would raise our children with a gentleness and love my father never showed me. And it would make me love him even more.
Exactly
And Johnny would be the dead beat baby daddy who doesn't pay his child support.
@@josh043p6 Exactly. He's the sperm donor, and Tilian is the father Jonny could never be.
I appreciate you taking time to acknowledge Tim. I know they’re not your favorite sound, but always glad to see DGD on your radar
Jon Mess lyrics are nonsense and it’s something we just accept
i appreciate every aspect of this video, thank you finn for the moment for tim, that was wonderful of you to do.
“What has Tilian got up his sleeve?”
Biceps. I thought that was quite obvious! 🤣🤣🤣
DGD is my favorite band of all time, been listening to them since 07 when they were just a local band from my area
Sacramento? Lol
Technically a grape eating grass would be like a person eating a steak. Not cannibalism
Love your take on tillian vs. johnny. I have to agree it just feels like tillian has vocal cords that were almost manufactured for DGD
I find Tillian and Jonny's voices so inhuman and unobtainable that Kurt is my favorite vocalist. He just sounds like a regular guy singing his heart out. Maybe its nostalgia. But when im writing a certain kind of music its usually in Kurt's voice. I love his voice, and his solo stuff is so good id hate for him to go unnoticed. He's been my favorite vocalist since i was 12, and still is.
Tillian is just the epitome of eye and ear candy.
this.
Sucks that he’s a predator huh
Jon Mess is equal parts brilliant and deranged
You’ll lean full deranged when you hear his solo project.
"I would feel so safe in those big strong arms." We all would my friend.
I lost it at the Alex Terrible DLC costume bit, haha. I could watch you Mystery Science Theatering music videos all day, I have work during your stream hours unfortunately. And Richard Scarry, what a throwback.
Dude same
Someone get Fin a glass of water.
Lol I was the one who asked "F. M. K." during the stream. Glad to see it came up again! Love the streams/videos on the second channel.
The tillian simping really got me lmao. Kurt totally got the "we love you nabil!" "What about me?" "FUCK YOU MATT!"
John Mess as the mayor from the Grinch is my new vibe.
Even though we dont always agree on stuff Finn you are one of my favorite TH-camrs, much love dude and appreciated how you answer some of my Instagram messages/suggestions haha . Loving the new DGD tried to listen to older stuff but didn't grab me as much as the stuff with Tillian as his pop sensibility really aids in the cohesiveness of the songs!

Blue Dream had Jonny in it. Kurt was responsible for stuff like NASA, Carl Barker, and Uneasy Hearts
I think Tilian is more technically skilled than either of the others, but that comes with the downside of sounding like a fucking keyboard a good amount of the time. On Mothership I thought he was perfect, because he added some grit to his voice in places, and that made the emotions come through a lot clearer for me. In the original mix of Acceptance Speech dude straight up sounds like a synth in some places, and while I loved that record, that aspect definitely bothered me more than any other complaints I had about it.
Not a hot take. Jonny Craig has a unique and nice voice, but I feel like Tilian works better even singing his parts. Also Jonny is a terrible person.
IMO kurt's best work is in his post DGD stuff with alot like birds and royal coda
@@Apollowram Eidola and Anamoria, take a listen, there's plenty of other Jonny knock off vocalists too, they just can't do it quite like him
Kurt's voice worked best in A Lot Like Birds.
I love tillian however kurt Travis is my personal favorite Era of dgd if I'm being honest
To be fair to kurt he was involved in the cult favorite uneasy hearts
Lol Pop Off is the sequel to Synergy and Tillians arms, while majestic, are now overshadowed with Andrew Wells in the band.
DGD’s best album is “mothership”
I just saw them yesterday night…. God damn. So fucking good. Tilian was fucking ON. Andrew helped with a few higher parts, but Tilian was fucking crushing it. Still on a high. Saw knocked loose and movements last week too….. been one of the best weeks of my old life.
"if you dig into the screaming lyrics, I'm sure there's meaning"
Also Jon: *forgets all of his lines on Mutual Fear and needs Eidola's manager to send them to him*
Yay you're turning into a fan slowly but surely haha
Tilian fits DGD like a glove. His voice was made for their sound.
And then he got kicked out
@@moth_milk I know I just saw ARTV's video about the allegations. It sucks man. I love DGD. This just really sucks.
I love that you have this second channel
If anyone is wondering jon mess (screaming vocalist) said Tim will be in the next two music videos after this
"Alex Terrible with his DLC variant mask" - highlight of the whole video 😂🤣
Saw DGD live in concert earlier this week and they were great!
Where is your Jonny Craig interview !?
Probably took away his MacBook.
It's up now on Twitch and Patreon for my subscribers there. Will be up everywhere else soon!
R.I.P Tim man 🙏🏾
Their videos are top tier, even when a song is kinda meh, like this one. Their robot-focused animation videos are a great story... cant wait where they take this weirdness...
When does that interview with Jonny Craig drop? I swear I heard you say you did an interview
Up now on Twitch and Patreon for subscribers! Everywhere else in a week or two
@@FinnMckentyPRMBA you may be my first Patreon subscription. You drive a hard bargain.
Thanks for the great content Finn
Thanks for watching!
your simping for tilian is so funny
You were on form today my man!
Thank you!
The reaction with the most pauses ever
Yo, next video on KGLW PLEASE.
They got a new album out
Jonny Craig interview?!
I feel like we have the same man crush on Tilian haha
Where is your interview with Johnny Craig?!
I am very happy to know I am not the only person that instantly thought Alex terrible when that dude showed up
Kurt was my favourite vocalist
Lol your comments on Jon mess’ screaming is hilarious 😂
Kurt Travis era DGD was the best
Hey, Finn, I'd love to know what you think about The Home Team
Love them!
That wouldn't take out Alex, he wrestled a bear once
Finn you should check out the new Memphis may fire. Proper good stuff.
Yep it's good!
@@FinnMckentyPRMBA agreed. This could be their best album. It’ll take a lot to beat voyeurist by underoath tho.
I just saw them live I wish they would have played this song. It was such a good set though
Dgd just brings me too much joy
Are you going to react to the new Jerris Johnson song. I know these reactions are a week or two old but that would be interesting
Yes!
You should do a reaction to their new music video "Die Another Day" now!
Actually... you should do a reaction to their music video that dropped yesterday, "Feels Bad Man"
GOAT=DGD 🐐 🐐 🐐 🐐
I really liked this reaction
I dont rly watch music videos just listen to spotify but i guess it makes for good youtube content
Tilian fits their more poppy elements, Jonny sounded best on their psychedelic and powerful stuff, and Kurt was best on their funky stuff.
I don’t get the argument that Johnny is a better singer than Tilian. Tilian is better in almost every technical level you can measure, I just think people really like Johnny’s tone and confuse that for being a better singer
Tailored sheets
@@zachbackpacks perfectly refined argument. I see no need for further elaboration.
Kurt Travis is my fav and then Tilian and JC!
Love me some DGD!
tim od'ed on fentanyl
You may be Tillians biggest fan
To shreds, you say?
Ask him out to dinner already. Lol. Worst he can say is no
I’m scared :(
@@FinnMckentyPRMBA lol. Rejection is a hard pill to swallow. We've all been there. Gotta shoot that shot bro🤣
Fitness in rock tier list?
it's really more about the fruits they DON'T show you
4:29 - not sure if serious 🤔
🔥🔥🔥
Ohey, a new song from Angry Coheed
I hate how accurate this is, fuck.
@@Gear_Frontier or Circa, but the joke probably lands better as Coheed
This video has big iwrestledabearonce energy.
It’s actually a good song
I start to think you had a big crush on Tillian :D
I hope you wife to - you can just both talking about Tilian arms and chest :D
Hot take: I prefer Kurt.
Here's my take (probably not unpopular):
Jonny: best overall energy
Kurt: best writing
Tilian: best range
Ik!! Alex was lit
Jon mess literally writes random lyrics all the time
"If youre filming me piss its probably best I stop the stream, my colon is golden" - Jon
@@SirSchark wow, I should really get into this band because of the lyrics
Hi I'm finn mckenty and this is offend the black metal community
FMK lmaooo
Finn,you are the second biggest "heterosexual gay man".in the world LOL. I am the biggest one and my wife seeems to be the only one who understands that if I compliment another man on his looks or charm means the exact opposite everyone else thinks. Se are so sure about being straight, we got no problems admiring other men. Just sayin.... Have a good day , greetings from Zagreb Croatia!!!!
I wonder if Finn would like Secret Band🤔
rat the drive in
I wasn’t a fan at all in my emo days. I was quite the gatekeeper in my younger days
+1 for having drums lower in the mix. One of the worst parts of live metal shows
Let Kurt sing fantasy and I’ll see it that you change your mind

But maybe I wanted to talk about the video
@@FinnMckentyPRMBA Maybe you should consider doing that less when it's a MUSIC-video. At least if the channel is supposed to cover music more than video.
I can talk about whatever I want

jonny is a betting vocalist than tillian is an obsurd take imo
