@@TheAbandonedAccount7 whoa man. I think they mean Jon Mess, not Jonny Craig. And I don't think he's a jerk? But, a video on Will Swan or Matt Mingus would be dope.
“It’s going to be a busy year. We are going to hit 2020 really hard” You’re telling me that you’re going to work even HARDER?? I don’t think these guys sleep.
Not gonna lie, my favorite time for DGD is the Tilian era. Something about his voice just captivates me and works so well with Jon's unclean parts. His solo work is also pretty damn good. Can't wait for the new stuff to come out.
I joke saying dance Gavin dance has different universes like dc comics 😂 He is for sure my number one favorite Johnny. They both have such unique voices and they really hit that orgasmic pitch in your ear lol 😂 Lyrically Tilian really kills it!
Turquoise Cheetah dude him singing live is just amazing! Saw him down here in San Diego at the observatory and it’s one of the best memories of my life!
3:09 Honestly one of the most important tours of the scene. In 2009, Dance Gavin Dance was on their second singer (Kurt Travis) while Jonny Craig joined a singer-less Emarosa, so you’ve got two important bands going strong. Chris Roetter started Like Moths to Flames. Of Mice & Men were a new band after Austin Carlile left Attack Attack, which also led to Beartooth, Tides of Man opening up for DGD led to an eventual addition of Tilian as DGD’s new singer, and Of Machines the opener released what would become the “Rise Sound” for years to come, while Austin Thornton would use the popularity of the band to form Woe, Is Me, as their drummer, which went on to cause Issues to become a band from Austin basically being a dick. In conclusion, 9 complete bands were solidified from one tour in a butterfly effect. Dance Gavin Dance, Emarosa, Slaves (and Jonny Craig’s solo work), Like Moths To Flames, Of Mice & Men (with Austin Carlie) which led to Of Mice & Men (with Aaron Pauley), Attack Attack (with Caleb), which led to Beartooth, and Of Machines, which led Woe Is Me, which led to Issues. UPDATE 2021: Tyler Carter is now a full time solo artist, Tillian being added to DGD led to Kurt Travis being a solo artist AND the singer for Royal Coda. Update 2023: So… Dance Gavin Dance, Emarosa, Beartooth, Of Mice & Men, and all of the swancore bands are still super active. Attack Attack and Woe, Is Me are bands again. Apparently Jonny Craig almost joined A Skylit Drive in 2008, but couldn’t due to contract obligations with Rise Records. Crazy scene.
Acceptance speech is tied as my favorite with jackpot. "You won't realize its over till you slip into unconsciousness, and the moment takes over" makes me cry all the time. And "I haven't slept for weeks, just a couple more and ill be yours. I'll be coming home again" with that riff has me belting all day
If you seen him live, he always comes of very humbled. He's very reserved and soft spoken when engaging with the audience. He for sure comes off as someone who loves making and performing music, he's always very polite and thankful, he's not really a hypeman like most singers are, which is why I know he's not doing it for any other reason, besides the love of music.
I have a special connection with Mothership, that album came out when I was going through a rough time in college, I was close to dropping out but the album helped me get through those tough times
Mothership came out right after I graduated from college but was in a very weird and "down" point in my life. The album definitely has a very special spot for me. Things got better for me before I kind of tanked my mindset in 2018 around Artificial Selection. ArSe has become my favorite since. Listened to it every day and it really helped to pull me out of that dark place. I hope all is going well for you now man! Mothership and ArSe were a 1-2 punch of just awesome music!
HaRdCoRe 466 Same, I listen to it on the way to college in the bus & the whole album gets me pumped for the day! It reminds me how hard I’ve worked to where I’m at now!
I love how his personality is always the same, meeting him, interviews, being on stages, none of these change the way he speaks or acts, so it always feels like you're getting his genuine personality and nothing fake.
I've followed his career since 09 with Tides of Man. Dude's never have a bad performance and is always a standout. I remember being so stoked with DGD picked him up. He and the band are only getting better too.
This is vary awesome I love Tilian A Lot He's one of the best singer songwriters ever in my opinion And this was very cool to see I can't wait for more by him! (:
Man that's a bummer that he doesn't like Acceptance Speech. I loved the Angsty vibe from it. I missed that vibe. It was still present in Instant Gratification and that's why those two albums are my favorite from the new DGD. Artificial Selection is a great album too
yeah... as the albums keep coming, the more pop-y they're sounding and I don't technically favor it... Acceptance Speech and before was the best style for DGD. I miss that angsty sound also... greatly. 😔
@@Slappaccino Don't get me wrong, I've grown to love all of the tracks. Just songs like Flossie Dicky Bounce and it's "pow pow pow pow", or Chocolate Jackalope and its "up in the casino" put me off when it first came out haha.
i love tilian so much, rn his solo stuff is basically the only thing that calms me down when i’m having a rly bad panic attack (i’ve had a lot lately) and i’ve v v grateful for that. i love dgd a whole lot too, they’ve been my fav band for almost 5 years
Ngl tho Tilian would be the guy to make a joke about that "So here's my oral history. One night one of my old high school girlfriends decided to-- I'm kidding"
Props to Anthony Green! One of the best singer/songwriters of our time! I've seen dgd live, tillian live and many Circa Survive/Anthony Green performances. Absolutely amazing musicians!
Dance Gavin Dance is hands down one of the best bands lyrically. No matter who was the lead singer at the time, they killed it in every album and that’s a hard thing to come across with bands! They never disappoint my ears
Alternative Press loved it! Still waiting on a video with all of DGD, eager to hear more from Jon Mess although I know he doesn’t really like to do these types of things.
Dude, I remember receiving one friend request from something called Tides of Man on Myspace back on the days and I fell in love with it. And then the voice of this guy made me follow him through Archives, solo project, Saosin and now DGD!
What a cool story about DGD having him in mind when Jonny left. Goes to show everyone pretty much knows each other in that scene and it's all about the connections!
If you were doing "Tides of Man over Dance Gavin Dance" on Acceptance Speech, then I want more of that. lol That's my favorite DGD album. I love the vibe of it.
I love singing as a hobby of mine. I don't feel good enough to go crazy with it but after trying to sing along with Tillian I can say it has definitely improved my singing ability. At least from what I noticed. Im not in any way as good as he is, but im better than I used to be.
Tilian is such an amazing artist. It's great to finally hear what happened with him and Tides of Man. He's earned a tremendous amount of success! Love his advice! Love the guy! Thanks AP
TILIAN THINKS INSTANT GRAT IS HIS FAVORITE!? Of course he'd have such patrician taste! Instant Grat was my first DGD album, and it will always be my favorite. Awkward was a masterpiece, Tilian, never forget it!
Anyone been in love with tillian since his tides days? Also I saw him on his first tour with dgd before he was officially on the band! Nile theater represent! 🤘
Will swan said in one of their interviews that he was working with Mario from chon on this new album. So most likely chon feature it be cool to see Yvette young appear or Tim Henson
"i was basically doing tides of man on acceptance speech" now i know why Acceptance Speech is my favorite of their works...Dreamhouse was my introduction to really good post-hardcore.
Hello Mr. Tilian, Big fan of all your work. I'm so glad you're alive and that I'm alive while your here exactly the way you are. And I'm glad that you made all the music you made, in the way you made it. Recently I have gotten into collecting Vinyl. And I notice you don't have any copies of Perfect enemy, and Material Me. Two very important pieces of work that have defined my high school years. What do we have to do to get these pressed on Vinyl??? We're making this happen. You're signed to a major label know. Should I message them too? Start a petition? Just let me know what I can do.
Biggest man-crush I have - such a chill dude. Tilian-Era DGD will always be my favorite. His vocals are inspiring and motivating, not to mention captivating to listen to. I can't hit his high notes but I love to try anyways, lol. I have so much respect for Tilian, I just genuinely love the guy! Listening to his solo stuff (lip sung Handsome Garbage for a class) often, and the era of him preforming vocals on Tides of Man. First vocalist I found truly inspiring. Excited to hear his new stuff and the new DGD album in 2020!
brother please... make one more... JUST ONE MORE... album with Tides Of Man... THE MOST influential band of my life. through deployments and regular life. i would do anything for it!
Tides of Man is one of my very favorite bands. Both before and after Tilian, they're incredible. I love the serious ambition, you can totally hear it. DGD is good too, but nothing throughout their history has hit me like ToM's Empire Theory did.
When Tilian said "Tides of Man" wanted to change the world, I believe him. Their follow up album (Young and Courageous) is such an important album which most people have probably not heard due to Tilian not being on it. -
I have been listening to DanceGavinDance for a long long time, like 7 years now, and I never knew the story for it, cuz I love them for their sound. Then I found Cocky by Tilian recently and was like huh he sounds like DGD singer, cool! Then I see this and IT IS HIM?! That's crazy awesome! I am WAY more grateful for their music now WOW!
Tides of Man will always have a special place in my heart, Dreamhouse is a masterpiece. I remember too the song he made with Saosin called Changes, when I hearf that I honestly thought Tillian would be the new vocalist after Cove left.
The very last thing he said about being in a strained band is very true. Fulfill yourself the best way you can. Don't waste your time if someone doesn't see your vision. Keep trucking 🤘
All i really want to see live again is tides of man back together again for a tour 🙏🏼. Luckily i loved tides already, so having him in dgd was a seamless experience
never really got into DGD in the early days, but now they've become one of my top bands. Was also a fan of Tides of Man at the time so maybe my opinion is a little biased lol

I love everything by him it's all beautiful and amazing
But my absolute favorite song he's on is
Death Of A Strawberry by Dance Gavin Dance!!
Josh Dean That’s an excellent choice
Love them all but the song that made me realize Tilian was the man to replace Johnny was The Jiggler.
Shelf Life
Evaporate
Dance Gavin Dance has been the ONLY band of the genre that no matter if the singer changes it's still good AF
The magic of Will Swan
V Cause most of the magic comes from Will Swan, Matt Mingus, and Jon Mess
i still prefer old DGD for it's lyrics and melody, nowadays is just some music written by some high dudes.
AlphaLeader772 Jonny Craig got kicked out of the band because of his addiction numerous times. And NOW it’s just a bunch of high dudes?
(Edit: I spelled Jonny wrong.)
@@clearlynotchloe2714 you think the others dont take drugs? Jonny's condition was worse than theirs, he was in depression and he was taking them more often and we was even sentenced to prison.

What a time it was too
That was such an amazing tour. Literally became a fan of all the lineup at one point or another

And "I haven't slept for weeks, just a couple more and ill be yours. I'll be coming home again" with that riff has me belting all day
He seems very “real” in a way I think few people are. Critical but not to the point of being unhealthy
you mean he isnt "a little too cocky?"
I was just thinking this. He talks like he's still not sure if he can be famous or if his girlfriend just likes his voice lol
If you seen him live, he always comes of very humbled. He's very reserved and soft spoken when engaging with the audience. He for sure comes off as someone who loves making and performing music, he's always very polite and thankful, he's not really a hypeman like most singers are, which is why I know he's not doing it for any other reason, besides the love of music.
Thought it was oddly poetic how he wanted to be a pilot when instead his voice is flying over of the most influential band of this genre.
I have a special connection with Mothership, that album came out when I was going through a rough time in college, I was close to dropping out but the album helped me get through those tough times
Fucking same man. Everyday I would bus it to my community college with mothership playing on my earphones.

Oral history has a whole new meaning to it now 😬
If you were doing "Tides of Man over Dance Gavin Dance" on Acceptance Speech, then I want more of that. lol
That's my favorite DGD album. I love the vibe of it.
Mothership is pure GOLD ❤
I'm pretty sure Not My Love will forever be one of my favorite songs. It's such an amazing song!!!!
Ahhh he's so cute. His little huffs when he's about to say something he's uncomfortable with sharing is so so cute. I can't deal! 😍

His newer acoustic version from like 2015 is absolutely mindblowing.

@Frank Marano Tilian said that, understandably, Mothership was more well-received with the fans. But IG is his personal favorite album.
He’s the best in these types of genres right now, and it’s really not even close. Can’t wait to see them again in April!
Oh Tilian. I love you. The demo you did with Archives is literally one of my favorite songs of all time.
He’s got that London gap

Been waiting for some Pearson history for the longest time! Now with that being said, THANK YOU! This dudes awesome:)
Curtis Edwards So glad you enjoyed it!!
Anyone been in love with tillian since his tides days? Also I saw him on his first tour with dgd before he was officially on the band! Nile theater represent! 🤘
Interesting interview!
Some of my fav songs are: "You'll forget me soon", "Blame it on Rock n Roll", "Evaporate", "Disaster"
Tillian: 2020 is gonna be pretty busy in terms of dance Gavin dance
Coronavirus: allow me to introduce myself
"Guitar features"
Probably, Tim Henson, Yvette Young, or Misha Mansoor and Chon guys
God that would be fucking 🔥🔥🔥literally any of those would be amazing. Would also love to hear Tillian on a Polyphia track.
One can only hope for polyphia to be the band that's blurred on next tour
Will swan said in one of their interviews that he was working with Mario from chon on this new album. So most likely chon feature it be cool to see Yvette young appear or Tim Henson

Always great to see any dgd on here .♡
amazing to this. been a fan since I saw tides open for JC back in 08.
That's funny cause Acceptance Speech is still my favorite album.
I think oral history of Jon Mess will be more interesting than Tillian's.
@@walterthekid8872 Anyway, Jon Mess - god from self-religion.
Completely agree
I do want to know more about this mystery man
Same I wanna hear him talk about the fever dream that is defying gravity
Jon Mess needs and deserves MUCH MUCH MORE attention and appreciation... dude is a dirty vocal genius.
I loved Empire Theory from Tides of Man that’s probably one of my all time favorite albums.
That shit didn't leave my CD player for months. It's why I was okay with tillian joining. I'm sad be didjt mention tides of man doing jonny live shows
Beautiful voice
y’all should do an updated history 😬
never really got into DGD in the early days, but now they've become one of my top bands. Was also a fan of Tides of Man at the time so maybe my opinion is a little biased lol
Gracias por la explicación Tilian, y gracias a AP por el buen video 💡
Love this man.
I got into DGD at the start of the Tilian era so Im probably biased but I enjoy his era the most by far. Mothership is a masterpiece.
Surprised Tilian isn't fond of Acceptance Speech. The remaster is their best album, and he's phenomenal on it.
Great Guy!! Huge fan!
Tilian is a man I look up to, what a handsome angel he is
I LOVE him.
his voice is way deeper than I have imagined
