Clancy Song Battle #25

[rain scarab]

You're lame with that comment

True

I downloaded it on spotify

On local files

[manic furnace]

ohhh okay, ty

[pallid jasper]

Nice, Navigating!

Honestly, I think this thread is pretty high praise for our boys in general. The fact that they could make an album where every song is some people’s favorite is pretty impressive. Pleasure song battling, everyone

[loud badger]

yeaaah, i pretty much have no complaint whatsoever

[loud badger]

thought i was the only one

[deep spade]

This song be mighty emotional
I felt the same way at a point but now I've been proven wrong lol

[rain scarab]

Nice bro

[rain scarab]

That's great to hear.

[deep spade]

Thanks it happened at an unexpected time but also when I needed it most✨️

[deep spade]

Forgot to say, it's been a wild ride with these song battles
But Navigating is just that good :DD

Awesome

Happy for you

[loud badger]

That's good to hear! hope you're doing well now (considering you said it happened when you needed it the most)

[deep spade]

Thank you, I appreciate it!

I hope everyone is doing well!😊✨️

Midwest indipeak vs at the risk of feeling mid

[sick zenith]

ermmm it literally has MID in the title 🤓

[glacial goblet]

YESSSS

[pure wadi]

im gonna miss arguing with yall about clancy and being right all the time

until another day i suppose

[deep spade]

Same here
It was part of my daily routine

Soo...Trench battle next?

[echo lion]

Tyler should really see this

someone post this on discord clique twitter and tag him

[cunning ginkgo]

IKR he's gotta see how loved navigating is!!

[slate patio]

me one day without song battles

[rigid oriole]

Same

[rigid oriole]

routines in the day

[deep spade]

Exactly💯

So peeps,
Trench battle
Bandito or Chlorine?

[rigid oriole]

Bandito

[echo lion]

Bandito

[pure wadi]

bandito more like midito

chlorsweep

[deep spade]

I'm conflicted with one since I'm a sucker for Chlorine
Bandito is a strong song that combines lore with good lyrics and tunes :>
Definitely in the top 3 songs of Trench but somehow feels underrated

[deep spade]

Nah imma have to disagree with this take lol
Bandito is one of TOP's strongest songs lyrically

[pure wadi]

yeah but its kinda boring to listen to

[tight latch]

chat it was a nice run 🫡

[cunning ginkgo]

lyrically AND musically

it's perfection

one of my all time favourite top songs

always

[exotic shard]

chlorine, but close

[exotic shard]

not #awesome

[deep spade]

It's slow paced but honestly it keeps me in a trance
Its like the lyrics take me to another world
And when synth comes in, it's so beautiful

[deep spade]

U right, it's a slow burn
But when the Sahlo Folina comes on, it transcends😩🥹

"I create this world, to feel some control, destroy it if i want"

So dark but beautiful

[deep spade]

Chlorine is catchy asf
Can't stand the radio edit that cuts the last part out
The last part has great imagery and makes the song unique :>

[exotic shard]

its vile the radio does that

[deep spade]

Frfr
It played on my local station every hour
But it would be the shorten version bleh

[craggy jacinth]

LEVEL UP: You are now level 4!

[deep spade]

Love to see it ^-^

[exotic shard]

hashtag not awesome! 🤮

[deep spade]

#notatallawesome

[thin lantern]

😔

[rain scarab]

That is tough because I think the way Bandito is created outside of just lyrics is beautiful, the melody, the instruments, it's just perfect, however I'm not really a fan of making lyrics strictly about the lore, I prefer the main meaning to be out-of-lore with just references. Chlorine on the other hand, is OK in terms of lyrics and everything else, but not quite as beautiful and well-constructed as Bandito. I hope that makes sense.

I think I'll go with Chlorine, it's still really good

[placid mantle]

bandito is my favourite song ever of all time ever

[deep spade]

Hmmm even though Bandito has references to the lore, its pretty palatable and I believe it takes a meta approach by establishing Tyler created the world of Trench

Bandito is not only a reference to someone being a rebel but Tyler's mind when creating the world of Trench as a whole

Now a song like Nico and the Niners is definitely heavy handed with the lore so it's not my fav
Even Jumpsuit is in the same lore heavy lane but I still love it

I feel the Bandito lyrics are enough to stand on its on (even the Sahlo Folina part)

[deep spade]

Makes sense though
I do love Chlorine though, it's a bop
It's fun, has tiny references to lore but general enough as you said

[deep spade]

Frfr😩
It was on repeat back then and still to this day
I treasured seeing it performed live on tour :3

[rain scarab]

I still love Bandito and part of me wants to choose it

That's why it's a tough choice

It's just beautiful

Bandito

[trim kelp]

Can't wait for the next song battle including all albums from npi to clancy

[tight latch]

goated

[dry knot]

we just need cut my lip battles

its just cut my lip over and over again

[cunning ginkgo]

REAL

[dry knot]

ill keep ooooooooooooooooooooooooon tryiiiiiiiiiiiiiing

trying

might as well

[cunning ginkgo]

IF YOU DECIDE

ALL IS WELL

[rigid oriole]

slow and emotional doesn’t equal boring

[pure wadi]

not automatically

but bandito is kind of a snoozefest

[rain scarab]

No it's not, it's perfectly constructed

[barren pewter]

just because the song isn't an upbeat hype song doesn't make it a boring song

[tacit cloud]

I agree with the list except I would replace Midwest with Overcompensate

[exotic shard]

its slowly becoming one of my favorite songs

[rocky harness]

cut my lip is bottom 5 on trench imo it's not bad i just like most of the other songs more

[placid mantle]

bottom five doesnt mean shit in a 14 track album

[young vigil]

lyric battle

[rain scarab]

I would replace Overcompansate with The Craving

[exotic shard]

i get that, as of rn, i think smithereens is one of my favorites off trench. So im cooked

[pure wadi]

true, but bandito is

[slate patio]

day 3 with no daily song battles life is bleak and sad

@grim pelican i miss you i miss this

[grim pelican]

@slate patio i miss you more and I miss sbs

been sleeping in ever since song battles ended, no reason to wake up early

so sad

can we just have sbs for random bands

I need song battles in my life

[slate patio]

ajr song battles

thirsty ftw

[frozen echo]

https://tenor.com/view/kendrick-lamar-no-gif-12235592305274817604

[slate patio]

all the more reason to do it

[cunning ginkgo]

YES

i love so many bands

fall out boy

5 seconds of summer

onerepublic

the list goes on and onnnn

[orchid zenith]

Oh my sister liked that band

[slate patio]

day 4 no song battles

spent 8 minutes finding all of those

[soft blaze]

its getting dark out here without song battles

[dry knot]

we need

song battles

for

NPI

[cunning ginkgo]

she has TASTE

i love the vamps so much

[dry knot]

u dotn like..top

?

😭

[cunning ginkgo]

I LOVE THEM

😭😭😭

[dry knot]

RUWIOJKGDFUHCG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[cunning ginkgo]

i just didn't write them in the list because i was referring to the other bands we could have song battles for 😭

[dry knot]

:3

[rain scarab]

Exactly

Day 1 of asking for NPI Song Battles

[dry knot]

OR

hear me ou

lavish battles

lavish vs lavash vs lasish

[rigid oriole]

I wouldn’t be able to participate as I have never listened to NPI

and never intend to

[placid mantle]

theres a few good somgs

[rain scarab]

Then don't

[hazy shale]

why not? you don’t know if it’s good or not right? or did you hear something bad about it or something

this is a genuine question, i haven’t gotten around to listening to it yet (plan on it though)

[copper star]

what's npi

[echo lion]

No phun intended, Tyler’s first album

[rigid oriole]

I tried listening to it once

got two or three songs in and it was awful

I didn’t wanna put myself through that for however many more songs were in the album

[dry knot]

hai any double album

[echo lion]

Yes, but in my dream

[placid mantle]

correction on this, only a few songs were part of the original npi which was just a collection of some songs he wrote, the rest of them are other songs that were found that got lumped together with it

[echo lion]

Oh

I never noticed that

[dry knot]

like taco bell saga

[placid mantle]

yes exactly

taken by sleep too its literally a live recording

[slate patio]

song battles i miss you

@grim pelican hey

[dry knot]

#1264235376957067274

[trim kelp]

me too

[rain scarab]

It's not awful

Almost every song is a great song

[rigid oriole]

I can’t say I agree, unless the first three are the only bad ones and the rest are indeed great

[orchid zenith]

The quality isn't the best but the songs themselves are mostly good

[rigid oriole]

I don’t think I can force myself to listen to the entire thing

but tell me which the best ones are

and I’ll try to get to them

[orchid zenith]

Drown no doubt

Then I also love taken by sleep

[rigid oriole]

is that the whole song title or is it just Drown

[orchid zenith]

Drown

Just drown

[trim kelp]

I like Npi

Especially Drown, Blasphemy, Where Did We Go, I Want To Know and Whisper

[grim pelican]

heyyyy @slate patio

[slate patio]

omg gray era

matches the tootie pic

[grim pelican]

yeees I felt like red's too loud

especially when I'm ia

[slate patio]

i liked the red idk

[deep spade]

Dang I've only listen to NPI once
Years back
I don't remember what any of the songs sound like

[rain scarab]

The first three are great

[manic furnace]

Mreow

[cunning ginkgo]

i miss the song battles low-key

how am i supposed to be extra dramatic about my song opinions now, it's just not the same 😔

[rain scarab]

Taken by sleep is arguably the most depressing

[hazy shale]

ok everyone lets revive the spirit of song battles

whats your most controversial tøp opinion

[amber stratus]

i dont like hometown

[cunning ginkgo]

they have NO SKIPS

i said what i said

every single song is perfect

[cunning ginkgo]

WHAT

[amber stratus]

[trim kelp]

I don't like ride

[amber stratus]

not really controversial tbh ive heard that so many times

[trim kelp]

I know but many people like it too

[rigid oriole]

I have quite a few, but I honestly don’t know which tops the list 💀😂

[young vigil]

i do like ride

uuummm i think saturday is a well-written song

uuuuhhhh

idk 💀

[rigid oriole]

Agreed

[craggy jacinth]

LEVEL UP: You are now level 15!

[young vigil]

🎉

i think sai in general is a good album

SUE ME

[fresh sage]

Stressed out is perfection, it's famous for a reason, stop the hate!!!!!

[young vigil]

YEAH

i think the most popular songs on blurryface are some of their best

uuuuummmm

that IS a hot take i know it is

[fresh sage]

YESSS

[young vigil]

except blurryface is not in my top 3 albums

trench, vessel, clancy in that order

uuummm

[fresh sage]

Ooh

[young vigil]

sorry guys im yappig

[rigid oriole]

Almost every rap verse in Vessel sucks
Blurryface mostly consists of skips and is their second worst album
Lavish is awful
Smithereens shouldn’t have been on Trench
Trees is their best song
The Clancy album art is really good
Migraine is mediocre
Level Of Concern is better than Lane Boy

I probably have a lot more

SAI is a great album

Bounce Man doesn’t deserve the hate it gets

Choker, while good, is forgettable

Lane Boy, Polarize, and Not Today are the three worst songs on BF

[young vigil]

based

[young vigil]

ok loc take is based, trees take is eeehhh??? we're all entitled to our opinions..!, clancy art is good, lavish is acquired taste for most people (excluding me i loved lavish first listen)

uuuuhhhh

your bf takes are solid i think

[rigid oriole]

The Trees take is the one I’m the least solid on tbf; I personally think it’s their best song, but I am very open to other arguments on that one

[young vigil]

idk... my favorite songs that aren't on clancy (like midwest indigo) are probably trapdoor or holding on to you off the top of my head

[rigid oriole]

Fairs

[amber stratus]

The trees take is a take

Though I think their "best song" just depends on the person themselves

[cunning ginkgo]

why would i sue you for having taste??

[deep spade]

The clancy album art is meh,
I wish it matched the sound of the album better

And the Vessel verses
I will admit they have aged quite a bit
Screen especially for me

[rigid oriole]

Honestly I think it does match the sound of the album; it was definitely not good to start with but as time goes on I appreciate how it represents the album more and more

I also like a strong colour theme, which it does brilliantly

on top of this, I love it for being one of the many indications that Paladin Strait isn’t the end 😂

[hazy shale]

yay i caused arguments :D

mine is probably that trench is my least favorite album but i think i’ve said that before

[rigid oriole]

oh wow I think that tops my entire list

least???

[hazy shale]

of the ones ive fully listened to yes

havent heard all of rab yet

[rigid oriole]

RAB over Trench would be WILD

can I ask why it’s your least favourite?

I’m just in shock 💀😂

[hazy shale]

idk really just the style is less like what i enjoy listening to? im not saying its bad by any means or anything about production etc though

[rigid oriole]

Fair enough ig

[hazy shale]

songs like leave the city, pet cheetah, bandito, cut my lip they’re just kind of slower i guess and i don’t like them as much

[rigid oriole]

also to be fair I’m thinking of this in the parameters of how I feel about my least favourite albums, like I genuinely can’t stand them lol- but some people are kinda cool with everything and just like some things more than others

which I suppose I should consider 😂

when I hear ‘least favourite’ I insantly think ‘awful’

[rigid oriole]

yeah I get that ig

[hazy shale]

yeah i’m more like the second one, i love trench but if i had to rank all the albums it would be at the bottom since i love the other albums even more

[rigid oriole]

yeah that’s fair

[placid mantle]

grrrr

[frozen echo]

https://tenor.com/view/rage-against-the-machine-my-reaction-to-that-information-gif-26731527

[deep spade]

It hurts
Least??
That's one of their strongest albums

[hazy shale]

never said it wasnt? not talking about the quality just how much i like the style of it

i still love it but not as much as any of the others

[deep spade]

Fair enough then

I'm just talking based on quality of album in general

[hazy shale]

ah ok. well i cant judge any of that, to me it’s all subjective really but im sure there’s more to it than just opinion

im just surprised that i seem to be the only person in the server who doesn’t absolutely love trench. i would think there’d be more variation given how much there is regarding other albums

[placid mantle]

trench is a perfect album

[cunning ginkgo]

EXACTLY

[hazy shale]

agree to disagree

[placid mantle]

no disagree to disagree

[hazy shale]

we’re both entitled to our opinions?

[ashen mauve]

Disagree

[placid mantle]

disagree

[rigid oriole]

okay it's great but not perfect

there's a couple issues

but it's the closest to perfect that you can realistically expect an album to get

[placid mantle]

its perfect

[hazy shale]

ok. well if we’re already disagreeing i think some of the songs e.g. levitate are a lot less memorable than most songs and there are only a few songs on the album i’d actually choose to replay. that’s why i don’t like it as much as the other albums.

[hasty jolt]

Agreed

[hasty jolt]

Lavish is so good 😭

I think Clancy is their best album

[placid mantle]

nuh uh its perfect

[lunar storm]

bro this post pulled me in all 93 different directions

[rigid oriole]

nope

there are issues lol

[rigid oriole]

this is what I expected from most people

but everyone seems to hate the Trees take more than anything else LOL

[rain scarab]

How does almost every rap verse in Vessel sucks? Explain yourself. These verses are very smartly-written and are the best rap verses TOP has ever had.

[rain scarab]

Overcompensate is awful and the best albums are Self Titled and Regional At Best

[placid mantle]

bro do you guys even like the band

[placid mantle]

yep

there are no issues

[rain scarab]

No, it wouldn't.

[rain scarab]

The Trees take isn't bad

[craggy jacinth]

LEVEL UP: You are now level 3!

[rain scarab]

Definitely one of their best songs

[rigid oriole]

it absolutely would

RAB is their worst album and Trench is their best lol

[rigid oriole]

I agree, but that is what most people have said

[rigid oriole]

okay yeah now I know you can’t be reasoned with LMHO

[rigid oriole]

for someone who isn’t a rapper, Tyler does a listenable job with the verses; and in terms of subject matter and metaphor, the writing is good as always (because that’s what Tyler is best at in songwriting). However, as a hip-hop head and rapper, in the context of the genre of rap and hip-hop, nearly every rap verse on Vessel suffers from a deficit in delivery, flow, and rhyme schemes

I’ll say it again; from a subject matter perspective, they are good and yes they are smartly written in that sense

but in terms of the rap technicals, they’re terrible. not much else to it

I will say he has significantly improved in his skill rapping-wise since then which I appreciate

[placid mantle]

youre never gonna believe this

but

vessel isnt a rap album 😱😱😱😱😱

[vernal summit]

Regional at dogshit exists

So does Blurryface

[rigid oriole]

and that excuses it from criticism?

Tyler attempts to rap in the album, and he does so a significant amount of times

Hip-hop not being the primary genre of the album has nothing to do with it lol

[hazy shale]

if you’re going to disagree you have to give some kind of logic. that’s the whole point of an argument.

[rain scarab]

RAB is 2nd best after Self Titled.

[rain scarab]

It's better than average rap

[rain scarab]

You're the guy who said RAB is the worst album and NPI isn't good

These takes are just 🤮

[rigid oriole]

I said RAB is the worst album because it is, but I can’t judge NPI officially because I haven’t listened to it all the way through. What I did say was that I don’t intend to because what I’ve heard was bad

[rigid oriole]

you are legitimately insane

[rigid oriole]

I know what I’m talking about mate 😂 good writing and subject matter do not magically elevate the technicals

I’m glad you enjoy it more, but there are standards we can use to measure the technicality of any given rap verse

[trim kelp]

Trench > Clancy > Blurryface > Vessel > Self Titled > RAB

[rigid oriole]

SAI?

[trim kelp]

Ah bruh

[rain scarab]

How

[rain scarab]

For example?

[trim kelp]

Trench > Clancy > Blurryface > Vessel = Scaled and Icy > Self Titled > RAB

stop vomiting pawel

[rain scarab]

Cant help it

🤢

[rigid oriole]

I already gave examples - the flow is choppy, basic, and disorganized, the delivery harms what could sound like a sincere message, and only serves to highlight the issues with the flow, and the rhyme schemes (excepting a few) are uncreative and simplistic

[rain scarab]

I like it that way

[rigid oriole]

however, I’m kinda done with this conversation because I can tell we’re just gonna go in circles on this lol

[rigid oriole]

Good for you; that doesn’t make it technically up to standard

have a good day lol

[rain scarab]

I won't, I'm gonna be vomiting for hours after the disrespect for Self Titled and RAB

But thanks

You too

[deep spade]

Damn it got spicy in here

[rain scarab]

My bad

[hazy shale]

have not heard all of rab but what i have heard i like more. and blurryface is incredible people generally hate on it since it’s popular. respect if you don’t like them, but they are by no means bad albums

[rain scarab]

I'm not gonna hate on Blurryface because these songs got me into TOP.

[ashen mauve]

Man, every time I see your profile

[ashen mauve]

And music doesn't have a standard. What is perfect to one person might be trash to another. There isn't really an official perfect music charter in which like the top music listeners go and tap a board and lecture on the perfect wat to make music

And don't mess with rab it's next to perfect (besides twenty one robots)

[rigid oriole]

Of course, music is subjective and everyone has the right to their own opinions. However, in certain genres, there are generally accepted ways of measuring things. I honestly don't really care if you like it or not, good for you if you do; but a), don't attack me for having a different opinion to you and then expect me to not defend it, and b), there are widely accepted standards

I'm operating within those

[ashen mauve]

Well widely accepted isn't fully accepted so

[rigid oriole]

I am well aware of this after spending a month on this server lol

[ashen mauve]

Facts

[rigid oriole]

everyone has the right to make music how they want, and it's just as valid as the next musician, but are you really expecting me to not express an opinion just because it conflicts with yours?

idk

that might not be how you're thinking of it, but that is how it can come across

[ashen mauve]

I think that your opinion shouldn't be built on something like a flawed standard. That's all

I can understand your opinion don't get me wrong

[rigid oriole]

I don't think it's flawed though? Like, the fact that there are objective measurements by which pure technicality can be measured can coexist with people preferring things that are less technically proficient

just because there are standards doesn't mean everyone has to like music that perfectly fits them, I'm happy to accept that and I know that's something that will never change

but it is possible to measure things in terms of how much they fit them regardless of preference

[ashen mauve]

Well let me ask this

[rigid oriole]

like there's stuff I really enjoy that I also think sucks lol

Including some rap verses on Vessel, might I add

[ashen mauve]

What would be considered the most technically proficient song in general?

[rigid oriole]

In hip-hop alone, there's probably a few arguable contenders for that top spot ngl

in terms of artists, probably the most technically proficient are those like Asa Jake, Eminem, MF Doom, Black Thought, Method Man, and JID

but there'll be more that even I don't know

and some that aren't even famous so nobody knows em

[ashen mauve]

Now I ask, does that make their music good? To you

[rigid oriole]

but you don't have to like them because they're technical

[rigid oriole]

Yes

However, there are some of them that I don't enjoy despite that

I think quality is separate from preference when it comes down to technicals

[ashen mauve]

I mean what is it measuring because all the artists named are quite different from each other

[rigid oriole]

It's kind of like stats in a video game - between all of them they have different balances of punchline, rhyme, flow, and delivery

those are the main four

[ashen mauve]

Well if it's based on flow, I don't really expect many if any tøp songs to be like on there. They don't have generic flow. Which to me isn't a bad thing

Especially in vessel and npi

[rigid oriole]

I feel like there's a typo somewhere in there

however I will say in defence of their flow, it got a LOT better after Vessel, and even better after BF

[ashen mauve]

Many if any?

[rigid oriole]

I'm not sure, but nws

[ashen mauve]

I think for me it was the opposite. The rap verses after levitate and pet cheetah didn't really stick with me. The songs were perfect it's just I didn't really get the same feel. Not saying they're bad cause they're not

Clancy is different though

Although it may have been a while since I've listened to all of trench so that may be the problem

[young vigil]

I LOVE PET CHEETAH 🗣️📣 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

I LOVE ALL OF VESSEL 🗣️📣 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

okay legit just don't participate if that's all you're gonna do lol

[hazy shale]

i’m cool having genuine arguments with people, that’s what song battles are for. but that doesn’t seem to be happening so: i respectfully disagree and that’s the last thing i’m saying about it. have a good day :)

[placid mantle]

sorry ok i was taking the piss

[vernal summit]

Womp womp

We all like the same thing bruh

Stop arguing

Except regional at best sucks

It’s all bad

[young vigil]

[hazy shale]

to be fair the goal here is to argue haha

[ashen mauve]

Man this doesn't even need an argument. You just dissed your own music taste I'm sorry bruh ⚰️

[trim kelp]

I miss song battles

Song battles helped me to have structure in my life

[loud scroll]

You are so real for this

[cunning ginkgo]

same same

i miss being extra dramatic about my song opinions 😭

i mean

i could still do that but it just hits different when you're discussing it because of song battles, you know

[orchid zenith]

Song battles got heated as hell sometimes it was fun

where are twenty one pilots song battles (every song ever published)

[rain scarab]

Yeah, I don't care we already had it, we can have it again to make things interesting, doesn't matter if it already happened in the past.

[trim kelp]

yeah and we didn't do it with every song yet since clancy hadn't come out when the last battles took place

[rain scarab]

No, I think we did it with Clancy

[trim kelp]

Only with OC and NS

[rain scarab]

Oh

That's weird

Then we should definitely do full discography now

[trim kelp]

Yeah

That's what I'm saying

[rain scarab]

Or we should do battles for every album separately

For fun

And then do full discography

[trim kelp]

Also a possibility

I need some battles, idc which ones

[rain scarab]

Yeah

[hazy shale]

ok everyone uhh
choker or guns for hands

[rigid oriole]

Choker

[cunning ginkgo]

HOW DARE YOU

[hazy shale]

:)

[cunning ginkgo]

this is such a hard choice and sai and vessel are literally tied as my #1 tøp albums

i need time to THINK

[trim kelp]

guns for hands

[rain scarab]

Guns For Hands for sure

Choker is ok but Guns for hands is next level

[trim kelp]

Choker is bottom sai change my mind

[rain scarab]

All I know is Guns For Hands is just on another level, no comparison here

[exotic shard]

yeah

[hazy shale]

WHA

[dry knot]

my oh my

i cant seem to turn the page

[rigid oriole]

Never Take It is worse

both are fantastic songs, but their main issue is memorability

neither of them are especially catchy or punchy

so in comparison to the rest of the album they kinda sit back and support

imo, Choker is just that little bit more memorable

[exotic shard]

never take it’s vocals are a lot more memorable than chokers imo

[ashen mauve]

Schizo chat right here

[rain scarab]

Message Man is so good

Change my mind

[trim kelp]

It is

However, it's only in the lower half of blurryface in my opinion. There are so many better songs

like Fairly Local, Heavydirtysoul, Goner, Stressed Out, Lane Boy, Tear In My Heart, Hometown and maybe also Not Today

[rain scarab]

Honestly, I prefer Message Man over some of these songs

[exotic shard]

hometown is the best song off blurryface imo

[hasty jolt]

Agreed. Either that or heavydirtysoul

[craggy jacinth]

LEVEL UP: You are now level 3!

[exotic shard]

hds too

[hasty jolt]

Hds = heavydirtysoul

[exotic shard]

yes

[cunning ginkgo]

hometown is in my top 3 blurryface songs

along with doubt

and message man

[exotic shard]

all some of the best from blurryface

[rigid oriole]

top three are Goner, Fairly Local, and Doubt

[exotic shard]

valid

[rigid oriole]

question

why is your pfp a picture of a trainwreck

(thank you though that's one of the first times people have agreed with me on my top songs in Blurryface lol)

[exotic shard]

i couldn’t even tell you fr

i hear how unpolished it is

i really do

I enjoyed it though, i think the tracks were better than vultures 1

its not old kanye by a long shot

just how im feeling yk

[ashen mauve]

Fairly local is my number one. This is actually pretty valid

[rigid oriole]

honestly I feel like

the concepts were better

but the execution was considerably worse

enough to offset the concepts imo

[rain scarab]

My Big 4 of the Blurryface album is Stressed Out, Fairly Local, Message Man and Goner

Ok I have a question

Fall Away or The Pantaloon?

[craggy jacinth]

LEVEL UP: You are now level 4!

[exotic shard]

Pantaloon

both are basically on the same level

[exotic shard]

as shifty as the album apparently was, I think it all came together for me

[hazy shale]

i’d also say pantaloon, it’s probably in top 3 of self titled for me

[rigid oriole]

both are kinda mid imo but The Pantaloon pips it to the post

[rain scarab]

they aren't mid

they are great

[rigid oriole]

yeah but thing is you're beyond reason

[rain scarab]

You don't even know what you're talking about

If these songs are mid then I don't know how we should call your music taste

[exotic shard]

God forbid they have an opinion on something as controversial as music

[rigid oriole]

this is why I don't engage in music discussion with you lol

[trim kelp]

Fall Away

But both are good

[rain scarab]

you literally just did

[vernal summit]

The pantaloon is really really bad

But fall away is goated

The best vs the worst from self titled

[rain scarab]

No, it's not

What is really really bad about it?

[rigid oriole]

yes, because every once in a while I feel like maybe you might be more reasonable about other people disagreeing with you, but I'm consistently proven wrong 💀

anyway

have a nice day

[exotic shard]

you come off as unadorned, unwilling to accept the flaws of an artist

not you mental

pawel

[rigid oriole]

got you lol nws

[rigid oriole]

this quote is hard as heck btw

unadorned is an underappreciated word

[vernal summit]

The vocals, the music, the changes, the artistry, the message, the everything. If you like it that’s fine but don’t come at me for sharing my opinion when you shared your shitty one first

[rigid oriole]

PREACH

Especially that last line

[exotic shard]

tyty

[frozen echo]

https://tenor.com/view/holding-on-to-you-twenty-one-pilots-vessel-ode-to-sleep-car-radio-gif-1058872188075848144

[hazy shale]

i hear people talking bad abt the pantaloon does someone want to [civilly] argue with me because thats my favorite self titled song

[cunning ginkgo]

i love the song so i'm with you ‼️

[rigid oriole]

I'm gonna relisten to make sure I actually think it's mid

[fluid latch]

I love the Pantaloon, I've always loved it and Johnny Boy and I'm shocked at how many people dislike both of them

[exotic shard]

i do like pantaloon

not johnny boy

[vernal summit]

I feel the opposite ^

Tyler can’t sing and the production is just really bad quality and even if the message is somewhat interesting to me, I just don’t care enough because the song sounds so horribly made

In the pantaloon

[hazy shale]

people dislike johnny boy too??
thats literally my second favorite (maaaybe third though, trapdoor’s up there too) this is crazy

[trim kelp]

johnny boy's ok like most of self titled, but not in my top 5 of the album

[spice solstice]

^

Best songs on self titled for me are trapdoor, air catcher, and march to the sea

[dry knot]

self-titled

literally made in a basement without any studio tools

[spice solstice]

And still sounds better than RAB

[rigid oriole]

IKR

[rigid oriole]

okay so I did this

I genuinely can't tell what it's about

but

it's not bad

it's not incredible but it's good, yk

[hazy shale]

fair enough

[cunning ginkgo]

JOHNNY BOY IS ONE OF MY FAVES FROM THE ALBUM

[cerulean fjord]

i absolutely love fall away but i haven’t listened to the pantaloon personally, i might’ve but it didn’t stick with me

[cerulean fjord]

it’s a really good song!

[hazy shale]

you should listen to it 👀 (if you have the time ofc)

[vernal summit]

On god

[cerulean fjord]

i will!

[cunning ginkgo]

IKR

[cunning ginkgo]

omg you should definitely listen to it!!

[cunning ginkgo]

sigh i miss song battles

i wonder if we'll ever have another one

it was so fun

and chaotic

[exotic shard]

Have you heard ILDMLFY by jpeg?

[ashen mauve]

We should hold a vote to bring song battles for full discog back

[trim kelp]

yeah agree

i wanna vote routines to the victory

[sleek warren]

Hell yeah

[cunning ginkgo]

REAL

[trim kelp]

Looks like I might be able to gather a routines-armee

[ashen mauve]

Best opinion

Should've been there when it got voted out. Needed you

[trim kelp]

I was there. I couldn't do anything.

[cunning ginkgo]

the only time that i didn't vote routines in the night was when it was against at the risk of feeling dumb

[trim kelp]

😔

[ashen mauve]

Not worth

Now if it was against Midwest then

That'd be different

[cunning ginkgo]

i would have still voted routines in the night if it were against midwest indigo tbh

[amber stratus]

Routines In The Night won this battle I can confirm as I witnessed it happen

[hazy shale]

oh im going to bother people lots with this 🤠
backslide > routines

[trim kelp]

backslide is good

but nothing beats routines

never

[young vigil]

hater.

(midwest indigo is my favorite song ever rn)

right after trapdoor but....

[exotic shard]

atrofd solos

[ashen mauve]

Truth

[ashen mauve]

Non clicky profile (pfp or bio)
Opinion discarded

[exotic shard]

How do i even respond to that

shoo u rat like

[ashen mauve]

You don't

[exotic shard]

atrofd is better ❤️

[ashen mauve]

Matter of opinion. If it was facts then that'd be different

[spice solstice]

I agree because backslide has some interesting ideas while routines sounds a little generic even though production is good

[hazy shale]

neato
i think so bc backslide sounds Sick and routines sounds Less Sick 🤠

(jokes aside i agree though haha)

[exotic shard]

You say that like i’m unable to talk about music and consistently look at/understand both sides of one opinion and anothers opinion

[exotic shard]

like midwest more if u want but

[cunning ginkgo]

NEVERRRR i love midwest indigo too but routines in the night is #1 on clancy for me (along with at the risk of feeling dumb) so every song stood no chance against them lol

[cunning ginkgo]

omg real

[ashen mauve]

I can handle ritn or Midwest being top

[ashen mauve]

I will

[ashen mauve]

Was 2 actually played?

Haven't seen it yet

[tough forge]

neither of them were

[ashen mauve]

||what took slowtowns place? I thought it was atrofd||

[tough forge]

||oldies||

[ashen mauve]

||not worth||

||if it was atrofd then maybe.||

[trim kelp]

||SNAP BACK||

[ashen mauve]

They're spoiler for a reasonb

[cunning ginkgo]

i will choose 1 over any other song on clancy any day

[manic furnace]

Real

[hazy shale]

uhh slowtown or fall away

[naive shale]

both becuase BOTH

[ashen mauve]

Slowtown

[cunning ginkgo]

SLOWTOWN EASY

[vernal summit]

Fall away all day bb

[placid bone]

slowtown

[cunning ginkgo]

can't believe that it's been almost 2 months since the last song battle

i miss it

we all miss it

we need a new song battle

i wanna defend my fave songs in the most chaotic ways again

BRING ON THE CHAOS

AGAIN

[cunning ginkgo]

i don't even know what the song battle theme would be

but we'll figure that out

[orchid zenith]

Who up battling they song (25)

[frozen echo]

https://tenor.com/view/matthew-mcconaughey-interstellar-crying-cry-crying-loudly-gif-25242943

[ashen mauve]

Song battles aren't up because hmm

Mods lazy

Yep

And until they bring it back they should all get a "lazy" pin name

[loud scroll]

We did all the battles tho

Like what else would there be

Only thing I can think of is album battles

Like all song from trench

But we kinda went through that in the first one

I don’t think they’re lazy

[orchid zenith]

NPI battles

[ashen mauve]

Npi, rab, clancy, various singles, the unreleased demos, the collabs with Whittaker, etc

A final mega battle with all the sings. Maybe after the Line releases

[orchid zenith]

Spoiler we already did clancy and every song (before clancy released)

[ashen mauve]

Before clancy released is kinda important

[orchid zenith]

It'll be ran again eventually

[barren pewter]

eventually

[loud scroll]

Rab and the singles were in the main one and there was also already a Clancy one

And didn’t Tyler and Josh say they don’t like the fan voting things?

[ashen mauve]

Clancy one

Separate d

From the main

One

There

[ashen mauve]

This was about an award thing

So no

As long as it's not a genuine hate thing

[loud scroll]

We did that one?

Navigating won remember?

[ashen mauve]

Alright let me simplify it

Clancy song battle with the rest of the discography too

All together

No separation

If tøp touched it

It's in

Demos included

[loud scroll]

Demos are the only new thing tbh

You could just choose between the winner of the first two and decide who wins

Ode to sleep vs navigating

[vernal summit]

Fine

I’ll do it myself

[loud scroll]

Okay

[vernal summit]

https://tenor.com/view/thanos-gif-25117042

[ashen mauve]

No fun

[vernal summit]

Just do music video battles

[ashen mauve]

No arguments between unreleased demo 2011 and overcompensate

[loud scroll]

Yeah this would be sick

[tropic lily]

ok

[manic furnace]

ok

[orchid zenith]

They moved the song battles

[slate patio]

i miss them

bring song battles back
