[obtuse folio]

Loc but i don’t mind if the line wins

[elfin schooner]

I use to watch the level of concern mv almost daily back when the infinite live was on

[proud frigate]

Loc live from the outside better

[wheat panther]

i love the line and it's very emotional but i have to go with level of concern 💔 sorry to the people

[hallow coral]

LOC

[novel juniper]

bro same i remember one day i watched it for like four hours straight 💀

[kind fern]

THE LINE

[spark tartan]

the lines really good but i feel its hyped a lot just bc its in arcane .. have to say loc

[silver aspen]

the line SWEEP

[tranquil igloo]

loc was my summer song, ez pick

[kind fern]

The Line was my first TØP release as a fan

[novel juniper]

valid takes either is so good

[wheat panther]

in a world !! where you bitches lie to me !!!

[lime forge]

ajr spotted

[novel juniper]

omg that’s so exciting!! it’s such a good one too

[blissful tundra]

This is hard.

Probably level of concern tho.

[empty bone]

listen i love the line. i love the scream in the line, and ive seen the line live, which is beautiful. but level of concern has my vote for now. unless someone can change my mind. i love the ending changes when it’s live, and the music video.

[blissful tundra]

The song that got me into the pilots again

[wheat panther]

https://tenor.com/view/twenty-one-pilots-level-of-concern-stars-neon-lights-baby-gif-17428268

[fathom latch]

LEVEL OF CONCERN SWEEP

[delicate tapir]

I'm second guessing my choice. This is hard because I love both of these songs

[urban solar]

Line

[empty bone]

https://tenor.com/view/debby-ryan-twenty-one-pilots-level-of-concern-stars-camera-gif-17428253

[empty bone]

same

[urban solar]

The lime

[drifting sage]

Damn the recency bias really took out Heathens

[supple acorn]

yeah The Line clears here. These two songs are the best in the singles list tho so I’m glad it came down to this

[fathom latch]

honestly even if i didnt prefer loc the loc era/arg was too iconic

[novel juniper]

yesss i agree. i’ve yet to see it live you’re so lucky! but i think either is a good choice since they both have their strengths and sound so different sonically

[novel juniper]

yesss i agree. i’ve yet to see it live you’re so lucky! but i think either is a good choice since they both have their strengths and sound so different sonically

[delicate tapir]

I thought the "would you be my little quarantine" a month into actual quarantine was an impressive and smooth pickup line lol

[wheat panther]

im tired of the recency bias argument 😭

[drifting sage]

Wdym?

[supple acorn]

Bro same

[fathom latch]

its not recency bias can yall stop saying that ffs

[supple acorn]

sometimes a new song is just that good

[fathom latch]

people just like the song better

[novel juniper]

reaallll it was something for the ages

[wheat panther]

im not gonna say no one has recency bias but some people (me) genuinely believe heathens is not anywhere close to their best work lmaooo

[worn dome]

poot dont get rid of this its funny

[supple acorn]

exactly

[novel juniper]

me with drum show

[lime forge]

the line isn't that recent anymore, its just a better song than heathens imo. i love both, but the line is SO good

[supple acorn]

yessir

[delicate tapir]

The Line is better than Heathens. I will say the same a year from now if asked.

[drifting sage]

If a Clancy song wins the whole thing it will seem like recency bias- which by the way is a very real thinf

[empty bone]

yeah totally. also if you get the chance to see the line, it’s magical. it’s dark, everyone has phone lights on, the acoustic version is muah

[placid flare]

its better this way

[empty bone]

hmm

but

[novel juniper]

yes i agree and its also overplayed to the point where i almost always skip it

[lime forge]

or 6 years from now. or 20. you get it

[empty bone]

considering the albums keep getting better

[wheat panther]

that makes no sense 😭 heaven forbid people think their music has improved over time

[drifting sage]

I also like The Line better than Heathens but I was not expecting The Line to beat Heathens

[drifting sage]

I'm not saying they can't....

[supple acorn]

it does exist, but only for a short time. just applying the term ‘recency bias’ to the more recent thing, even if said thing is well over a year old, is dumb

[empty bone]

i really wish levitate won the trench battles im currently obsessed with it idk though i wish LTC won more

[worn dome]

okay as a clancy clikkie, i don’t have recency bias with anything before clancy, only personal bias to clancy 😭

and my personal taste is almost in chronological order of their albums because i can rlly see how they’ve improved over time

[delicate tapir]

it broke me when I realized The Line was from the perspective of the person dying.

[empty bone]

same

[empty bone]

THIS

[supple acorn]

and it being for his nan

[drifting sage]

I mean fair, I was mostly making a joke but damn didn't think I would get absolutely attacked jfc

[novel juniper]

oh wow that sounds amazing!! did he scream the end at your show or sing it?

[empty bone]

the way they’re music has changed over time

[meager shard]

The line is AWESOME and Arcane is my favorite show, but LOC has a special place in my heart

[supple acorn]

not tryna attack you, sorry if it came off that way

[empty bone]

he scrumpt that screampt

[worn dome]

like god forbid someone like trench more than self titled maybe it’s because the music quality is better

‼️ please check my reply to this before attacking me ‼️

[trail barn]

I love the way it’s changed and improved! Their storytelling Nd meaning has gotten better imo!

[delicate tapir]

The Game awards scream in the Line made me think of Chester for some reason and I cried even more

[wheat panther]

not too much on self titled 💔

[worn dome]

this isn’t self titled hate this is js recency bias “hate” lol

[vapid galleon]

Que difícil me la pusieron

[wheat panther]

good clarification ty

[worn dome]

my above message lol, i love self titled

[empty bone]

DO NOT SAY ANYTHING ABOUT SELF TITLED

I live for ST

sorry guys

[supple acorn]

same goes for people who don’t like the older stuff much

[fathom latch]

that reminds me that caseoh literally said “it’s giving chester bennington” when he reacted to it

[empty bone]

i love all the albums equally

not RAB. rab is a little lower just because of trees 💔

im sorry

i said it

[wheat panther]

HUH

[empty bone]

and ruby

and anathema

[wheat panther]

how does trees bring rab down but it doesnt bring vessel down

[drifting sage]

No worries

[empty bone]

and be concerned

[wheat panther]

HUHHHHH

[fathom latch]

rab trees is an atrocity

[worn dome]

slowtown ❤️

[empty bone]

Vessel trees is amazing

[lime forge]

my least favorite of their albums is trench which usually baffles people 🙂‍↕️

[empty bone]

exactly

[wheat panther]

i cant be beefing with people in these threads anymore 😭😭

[empty bone]

slowtown is amazing

[kind fern]

Yes an AJR fan spotted😭

[empty bone]

oldies station tops though

[kind fern]

frrrr!

[novel juniper]

valid! i heard the line before watching arcane but then after seeing the show it made me love the song so much more especially cuz of the moment it comes in

[wheat panther]

some of us can fw the autotune

[delicate tapir]

The scream he does in Drum Show makes me wish he did a cover of Blackout by LP, but alas, it might shred his vocal cords.

[empty bone]

this is so real i’m like oh ill jsut see who’s winning then i ALWAYS end up in an argument

[lime forge]

no excited for wnot 😭 wish they hadnt delayed it

[worn dome]

FRR 😭😭

[novel juniper]

OH MY GOD INCREDIBLE 🙌🏼 so happy for you! i hope they sing it for breach tour

[vapid galleon]

I love Ruby

[empty bone]

im a UK fan so no breach tour for me 💔

[delicate tapir]

Oldies Station is one of my all time favorites

[lime forge]

i love shy away

[empty bone]

i can’t i’m sorry

[grizzled acorn]

The line scream version 🔥

[empty bone]

it is my all time favourite

it always has been

kept me clean

kept me alive

[gray solar]

The line is winning

Another sweep

[empty bone]

sadly

drum show is definitely up there as my joint first maybe a little lower though

[fathom latch]

im rooting for loc but i’ll be fine if the line wins

loc era was legendary

[novel juniper]

NO BE CONCERNED IS MY SHAYLA 😭😭

[gray solar]

Yeah, cause is level of concern is peak

[empty bone]

yeah this is my thoughts

[gray solar]

But the line is better

[trim pelican]

sweep of concern

[empty bone]

im sorryyyy

[trim pelican]

i’ll do this for every song be ready to be SICK of me

[gentle void]

loc outside

[little sundial]

Sorry Covid Song

[wheat panther]

i need kinton to come back

[empty bone]

real

[empty bone]

NO PLEASE

[fathom latch]

julie starts to mAKE ME NERVOUS

[little sundial]

TRUE..

[trim pelican]

that guy has too many opinions 💔

[wheat panther]

my favorite person in this server to argue with about the music

[empty bone]

GUYS LISTEN TO THE ENDINGS OF LOC LIVES NOW

[little sundial]

[empty bone]

:(

[fathom latch]

making lemonade,, VIA EMAIL

[vapid galleon]

[wheat panther]

no i respect it heavy i could probably talk to him about it forever LMAO

[sly kite]

Both loc and Heathens are better than the line

[delicate tapir]

I love these arguements during song battles because it all seems like it's in good fun lol

[wheat panther]

saying heathens is better than the line is downright fighting words

[novel juniper]

ngl it took me until last year to actually appreciate rab trees but now, it has a special place in my heart

[little sundial]

Sorry but LOC is definitely Covid Song

[gentle void]

With my friends 🧑‍🤝‍🧑
Simon, Paul, Jesse, Josh, and NED
Out here making lemonade 🍋
Via EMAIL 📧

[wheat panther]

is that a bad thing

[limpid dune]

Real

[spark tartan]

icl thats what makes it good tho cus it got me through that horrific time

[limpid dune]

I LOVE loc

[fathom latch]

loc i will love you forever

[novel juniper]

i’m sorry queen 🙁 it does really suck they couldn’t do a world tour

[limpid dune]

I remember when it came out and my mum played it like every day 💔

[wheat panther]

i can respect the results of this one no matter the winner if they're close, but if the line completely outdoes level of concern i will make it everyone's problem /j

[delicate tapir]

it's like play fighting with siblings

[wheat panther]

TRUST you all will be hearing from me

[wheat panther]

nothing could have prepared me

[kind fern]

Same dude

[fathom latch]

this has been in my camera roll for over a year

[novel juniper]

nooo real i might vote loc to make it more even

[kind fern]

But I can’t wait to see the final results (I NEED A WNOT VINYL/CD)

[kind fern]

I actually love the cover art so much

[drifting sage]

Have you never heard RAB Trees? It's bad

[wheat panther]

i love rab trees >:(

[muted dirge]

Stop dissing peak

[wheat panther]

im not gonna say it's the best version of trees out there but i do love it

[spark tartan]

not liking it is one thing but straight up saying its bad? come on nowww

[drifting sage]

Peak?! Lmao y'alls eardrums are busted

[muted dirge]

I think its not for everyone obviously but like it isn't objectively bad just cause its primarily autotyler

[wheat panther]

the person who said it also said anathema was bad so their opinion is void anyway

[muted dirge]

Insane

[drifting sage]

Autotyler 💀

[wheat panther]

autotyler is frying me

[drifting sage]

I love Anathema but lots of people hate RAB Trees for good reason

[wheat panther]

what is the good reason

[hollow cobalt]

welp, gon have to go with the line again lol

[wheat panther]

tell us what the good reason is

[wheat panther]

heartbroken but i understand

[hollow cobalt]

ive heard mostly just complaints about production quality

[wheat panther]

you could say that about the entire album

[muted dirge]

People who judge music solely on production quality are usually snobs

[hollow cobalt]

i like level of concern too dw but i just heard it WAY TOO MUCH

so i cant enjoy it anymore

[hollow cobalt]

yeah, that's why i personally don't really agree with it

[wheat panther]

that's interesting. loc wasnt overplayed for me, in fact i dont think i heard it very often

[hollow cobalt]

i think production quality doesnt matter because not EVERY FUCKING MUSICIAN IS RICH

[wheat panther]

like they werent even signed yet 😭

[hollow cobalt]

like i make music, for example, and i guarantee it's not up to standards with people like taylor swift

but like that doesnt mean it's bad

if i like it, then it's good

[spark tartan]

for sure, i'll never understand production quality excuse bc ofc they werent always a big band with the accessibility to make it amazing quality 💔

[hollow cobalt]

if you like something, then it's good (so long it's like not political idk lol)

[spark tartan]

everyone starts from somewhere

[hollow cobalt]

there are some things you shouldnt like of course

but MUSIC IS MUSIC

[hollow cobalt]

and they started really strong with self titled

[spark tartan]

definitely, people have preferences and i'd never say anything is just straight up bad just bc im not a big fan of it

[hollow cobalt]

im pretty sure they said RAB was for live shows, not digital media or whatever

[wheat panther]

i think people who hate on rab for production quality dont properly respect all the work they did to get where they are but maybe thats a hot take

[snow panther]

unironically i prefer LOC over the Lie

LINE

[hollow cobalt]

i feel like people only say that because they want to be special

like people want to be the odd one out

[muted dirge]

I've seen people start to say vessel is outdated quality which means they like it less.

[hollow cobalt]

because for some reason disliking something is cool

[humble ivy]

if i cross the sweep

[muted dirge]

Like its over 10 years old now ofc

[empty skiff]

https://tenor.com/view/draw-line-draw-line-cotpul-sharpie-gif-18560618

[spark tartan]

quirky and different just bc they dont like something 💔

[hollow cobalt]

but i dont think it is

[wheat panther]

like you dont have to like the songs if your complaint is lyrics or just general sound but if your main beef is production quality....

[hollow cobalt]

BRUH HOW IS IT OUTDATED? THE BEATLES ARENT OUTDATED SO WHY IS A 2010S ALBUM OUTDATED???

NIRVANA ISNT OUTDATED

A BUNCH OF BANDS FROM THE 90s ARENT OUTDATED

[wheat panther]

i think vessel sounds fine production wise but i think both vessel and blurryface are kinda outdated in their writing lmao

[hollow cobalt]

LET ALONE THE FREAKING 60S

[muted dirge]

They say that and then reference clancy. Like ofc they sound different

[hollow cobalt]

bruh clancy probably has the highest production quality and the highest budget

breach has a million dollar music video too so like bruh

[spark tartan]

definitely the highest budget. did u see the budget for the city walls video LMAO

[wheat panther]

live laugh love clancy, my favorite album, but i cant look back at the others and hate them just bc they've improved

[hollow cobalt]

I MEANT UP UNTIL NOW BECAUSE BREACH ISNT RELEASED IM SORRY

[humble ivy]

i get hating an albim for bad production but like rab is good production

[spark tartan]

LOL NO ITS OKAY I WAS AGREEING

ofc their newer albums are gonna be higher quality

[wheat panther]

fascinating take

im not gonna say its bad necessarily

but

[hollow cobalt]

i mean anathema is pretty dang good

[wheat panther]

true anathema is fire

i wish they would perform that again

drum battle and jocals and all

[muted dirge]

I just dont understand how the band making new music makes them hate their older stuff just cause it sounds "older"

[humble ivy]

liking an album with terrible production is like loving a book without vowels, its like, most of the book (or album in this case)

[muted dirge]

I've only seen that once or twice

That was cool tho

[hollow cobalt]

this isnt correct

it's like liking a book with poor quality paper, a low budget so there arent many pages, and a lack of popularity

[muted dirge]

Npi had bad production quality but it had great songs like blasphemy and drown

[wheat panther]

i can agree that you can learn to like them a little less relative to newer, better stuff but downright hating them is wild

[hollow cobalt]

you can still write amazingly without a budget, therefore you acan make music amazing too

[muted dirge]

Among the rest of the album cause I love npi too

[hollow cobalt]

it just won't have the quality other stuff has

but that doesnt make it bad by any means

[humble ivy]

true

[wheat panther]

npi is incredible but it sounds like it's underwater

like all of it almost

[humble ivy]

im terrible at analogies so

dont mind that

[muted dirge]

Well Tyler was how old

19 or whatever

[wheat panther]

just like yesterday is my favorite on the album and its technically a live recording so it sounds muffled and wonky but its incredible

[hollow cobalt]

you know he might have been 20

[muted dirge]

Wish we had footage

[wheat panther]

me too 😔

[humble ivy]

i thought npi was high school tyler

but

[wheat panther]

i also thought he was in high school

[halcyon ledge]

LEVEL UP: You are now level 7!

[hollow cobalt]

bruh tyler was around 21 when he made self titled and that's super impressive

[wheat panther]

i sas about to ask this

was*

[wheat panther]

yippee

[muted dirge]

I assumed somewhere around high school. But I mean how long did it take for him to make every song on the album?

[jade stream]

The line impacts me more, as much as I love LOC 💔

[hollow cobalt]

i think he came up with some of the songs when he was younger because ive seen footage of ode to sleep way before RAB ithink, dont take my work though, im a dishwasher

[humble ivy]

and the lost media from that era of him as well

[charred sluice]

Loc won twice? Why does it show 1?

Also loc is way better but ik everyone else gonna vote the line

[hollow cobalt]

https://tenor.com/view/cod-ghost-stare-indigo7777-cod-ghost-gif-27084510

in your opinion buddy

[muted dirge]

I can find the exact time period but I think ode to sleep was played around 2011 or 2012

[charred sluice]

Loc is what got me started on TOP

I wouldn’t be here without LOC

[muted dirge]

I think i still have the first time it was recorded. The video was just called untitled new song

[hollow cobalt]

okay, and i like it too, but it's still your opinion yk and you gotta respect that

[hollow cobalt]

didnt tyler also play for his family a bunch before anything released?

[livid sun]

My body's on the Lime now.

[muted dirge]

Well yea

[wheat panther]

i think the consensus is he was around his senior year of high school when npi was written/released but there doesnt seem to be certainty of how old he was when he graduated high school

[hollow cobalt]

it would be cool if we got a documentary about their livse

[muted dirge]

I dont think he recorded those ever tho

[hollow cobalt]

i just want to know the story behind the songs man

[neat condor]

the line is nothing more than ok imo. I usually wont skip it but Ill never choose it

[muted dirge]

I mean vessels track commentary is on Spotify. But id like to know more about npi and self titled since people don't do deep dives into them because they're considered by most not apart of the lore

[wary iron]

Loc🚂

[pulsar kernel]

https://tenor.com/view/tyler-joseph-twenty-one-pilots-tellmeits0ver-dance-tyler-joseph-dance-gif-16213667251502632660

Cuz I told you

My level of concern

[hollow cobalt]

thas kinda what i mean--before vessel and if there were other projects before NPI

[wary iron]

Hm that gif makes me wanna choose the line actually

[pulsar kernel]

But Tyler be vibin

[wheat panther]

how could you

[muted dirge]

I doubt before npi but I mean there's probably demos during the npi era that were scrapped. Could also be alternate versions of the songs as well

[hollow cobalt]

i wonder if bro was even using a DAW or not lol

[pulsar kernel]

Hot take 🔥 the line is worse than heathens

[wary iron]

I dont like sai or proto sai tyler

[lime forge]

me too I've avoided all of their teasers because i think they reveal too much of the music before jts released so im going in pretty much blind

[hollow cobalt]

https://tenor.com/view/cod-ghost-stare-indigo7777-cod-ghost-gif-27084510

[wheat panther]

never accepting your opinion on anything ever

take so hot you're in hell for it /j

[kind fern]

See I wish I could do that but I love them too much to avoid their socials

[pulsar kernel]

Idk if this is a hot take but neon gravestones is the best tøp song

[muted dirge]

https://youtu.be/2zaj0ZX0yek?si=i6SwTPV4Ew9et5-O
Here's an ode to sleep recording from 2010

[kind fern]

I just can’t wait to see the full versions of each song

[muted dirge]

Also found an old oh ms believer

https://youtu.be/2zd5Ybi89I4?si=ejzvYwcTHonRipxD

[kind fern]

Many people think this but not me lol

[wheat panther]

it's interesting but im not sure it's hot enough to be controversial

warm take

[lime forge]

i see all of their posts but usually its on Instagram so they're muted and i dont unmute. if i come across something on tiktok i just immediately scroll

[fossil juniper]

Anyone who votes level of concern can you explain your reasoning lol

[pulsar kernel]

1. Neon gravestones
2. Isle of flightless birds
3. Redecorate
4. Taxi cab
5. Anathema

[muted dirge]

Taxi cab is peak

[wheat panther]

i dont prefer every sad song over every upbeat song, to begin. i love the line, but level of concern is a nice bop that gives me some hope

[wheat panther]

i can get behind this actually

i personally wouldnt put neon gravestones at #1 but i can respect it

[muted dirge]

My number one depends on the day

Fake you out is my number one of today but I'll probably wake up tomorrow with a different one

[lime forge]

1. shy away livestream version
2. shy away
3. shy away mtv unplugged
4. paladin strait
5. overcompensate

[pulsar kernel]

I will forever love neon

[wheat panther]

guys i think this dude likes shy away

[pulsar kernel]

Bro likes shy away

[pulsar kernel]

I think so

[muted dirge]

Where's shy away (the clancy tour version)

[wheat panther]

mb i just read pronouns i hope dude is okay

[kind fern]

Yeah I used to always be on yt which doesn’t mute

[lime forge]

im working DAMN hard to get them as my top 3 most played songs

[wheat panther]

i respect it

[lime forge]

yeah idc lol

[pulsar kernel]

Shy away is good

[wheat panther]

i hated shy away when it first came out 💔 i was a sai hater

i have been changed for the better as of recently

I love arcane too much

[dark sundial]

Easy LOC sweep

[fringe pulsar]

The Line

[meager shard]

I SOBBED on that

[limber yew]

See for me that was the line

[wispy perch]

t h e l i n e

[onyx furnace]

Two 7.5/10 songs chi- I can’t pick one cause both aren’t my favorite

[onyx furnace]

NVM I WAS CONFUSING LEVEL OF CONCERN WITH ANOTHER SONG 😭

Level of concern is a 9/10 song so I will be voting

[shell girder]

now the line is so beautifully produced but loc feels more tøp to me
it also just has more of a place in my heart lol

[wheat panther]

what were you confusing it with?

[dull pecan]

https://tenor.com/view/twenty-one-pilots-the-line-tyler-joseph-heaven-piano-gif-8331823916788342713

recency bias gonna do the line well

[scarlet cosmos]

"recency bias" bro the song has been out for almost a year

[dull pecan]

9 months ago vs 64 months ago

💀 9 months aint long

[scarlet cosmos]

there's js a difference between improvement and recency bias 😭

[scarlet cosmos]

tell that to a pregnant woman

[dull pecan]

i love the line i vote it anyway

[scarlet cosmos]

or man

or anyone who is pregnant

[dull pecan]

well luckily i only had to hit download on that song and not carry it and feed it for 9 months 💀

[scarlet cosmos]

9 months is a while dawg im js saying

like you could argue recency bias with an album for like 6 months i guess

singles get 2 months max bro

[dull pecan]

Clancy has recency bias too.

[scarlet cosmos]

hell no it doesn't?? ✌️😭

[dull pecan]

It's beginning to wear off but when I've had nearly 7x longer to listen to Trench than Clancy, Clancy feels much fresher still.

I am still wringing the songs dry!!!>...

You also forget that time goes twice as fast than it used to so like a year is like 6 months now

[scarlet cosmos]

DRUM SHOW has recency bias

cause it was RECENTLY dropped

[dull pecan]

Both can be true.

[scarlet cosmos]

a year ago is old news bro

[dull pecan]

Recent cannot be defined clearly.

Clancy is their most recent drop so gets that boost.

It's obviously not fresh but it's still fresher in memory the entire era.

[scarlet cosmos]

so does sai have recency bias over blurryface???

[dull pecan]

Well that blurs a sort of line between nostalgia and recency, both battle I guess...

The Line not only released 9 months ago, but I got into it like 6 months ago. So that's new from my perspective. You don't instantly fall in love with pieces, they grow on you, fall out of your rotatation, etc...

[scarlet cosmos]

hmm ok i mean fair enough

[muted dirge]

Its tour isn't even technically over yet. The breach tour is just an extension of the clancy tour

I just wanna know what the people who are gonna hear clancy for the first time think about it live. I know there are people going to the breach tour who have never heard a clancy song before. I went to the offspring concert without ever hearing their album that they are on tour for

[carmine bane]

[rancid harness]

[soft oriole]

the line has to win this lol

[potent musk]

Damn cant decide on this one

[fringe oxide]

level of concern

[wheat panther]

you can definitely instantly fall in love with pieces

i agree with the notion that some people are mistaking recognition of improvement in recent music over older music for recency bias

sure clancy is more recent, but it's also just genuinely the most refined of their work, if we're to believe they've always been improving

which i do think that

[solid mica]

Cancer is the best single but it wasn’t even in the battle what the heck

[carmine bane]

the line in 5

[supple acorn]

I would argue Trench is more refined

but I do think Clancy does show an overall improvement in their workflow

[wheat panther]

which is your favorite album by them

KINTON

[dull pecan]

Definitely the line for this one

[wheat panther]

was arguing with people earlier and thought of you lmao

[viscid raft]

Factual

[trail pelican]

THE LINE

[dull pecan]

Clancy is their best work. The Line is their best solo single. I still think recency affects our perception.

[smoky verge]

oh dude this one isnt even a contest for me

[smoky verge]

i would hope that they are getting better with each one they do

[gloomy swan]

LEVEL OF SWEEPCERN

they could never make me hate you loc

[supple acorn]

Trench, but Vessel and Clancy are tied for second

1. Trench
2. Clancy/Vessel
3. Scaled And Icy
4. Self Titled
5. Blurryface
6. Regional At Best

[pastel nymph]

The line def bc recency, literally has made me cry, and arcane

[zealous quiver]

i was obsessed with loc in 2020 so definitely loc

[sly mountain]

level of concern takes it for me

[hidden trail]

I can feel the light shine on my FACEEEE

[quasi merlin]

I’m biased to Level of Concern

[lunar mantle]

i gotta once again vote for the line 😭

[lucid steeple]

if loc doesn’t win I’m disapointed in this fanbase

[indigo jewel]

i fear the line will win

[lusty lagoon]

As it should

Now being fr I don't really like LOC that much so this isn't really a hard choice for me

[indigo jewel]

same lolll

[heady quartz]

im not a fan of either but ill take LOC cuz it takes me back to the pandemic days of Tøp

[carmine ridge]

I wouldn’t have had much of a pref here, but since seeing the line live, it’s become a fav for me

[median escarp]

I'm actually torn between The Line and LoC 😭

Nevermind The Line won my mind battle 🙌

[pastel nymph]

Yayyyy

[pastel nymph]

Live version w/scream >>>> studio version

[elder trail]

Yesterday my mom and I were randomly listening to music and the line came on, within the first second I yelled “ITS TWENTY ONE PILOTS!!!!” And she kept doubting me until she heard Tyler’s voice 😭😭

[versed robin]

I voted for Level Of Concern.

[frosty grail]

Although I love Level of Concern... The Line is just...

[supple acorn]

i can feel the light shine on my

FAAAAAAA AAAA AAAAACE

[gentle urchin]

Pull the blanket tight now......

[idle sky]

the line sweep

[neon lagoon]

Ehhhh it’s good! But LOC is Loc

[hybrid basin]

I feel bad for anyone who hasn't heard the live version of The Line

[muted dirge]

Im judging this based on the studio versions so loc sweeps

[neon lagoon]

the scream goes so hard people thought it was edited

[dull pecan]

Nah Tyler can just do that live

[wide ferry]

https://tenor.com/view/draw-line-draw-line-cotpul-sharpie-gif-18560618

[delicate tapir]

Soon we will know

[weary stag]

if level of concern doesnt win trust im causing a riot

[delicate tapir]

I chose the line but I love both of these songs

[weary stag]

thats fair but idk loc just has a place in my heart

[delicate tapir]

I might change my vote i'm so unsure lol

"would you be my little quarentine?" makes me smile for some reason lol

[weary stag]

help same lmao i love it

[delicate tapir]

It was like less than a month into quarentine and i'm like "that is slick. he didn't hesitate"

[weary stag]

no word omg what the hell

[delicate tapir]

The Line gives me chills though.

[weary stag]

yess the scream is incredible

[delicate tapir]

It made me think of chester

[weary stag]

no stop given up is sooooo peak

[delicate tapir]

The scream in Drum Show makes me wanna hear them cover Blackout, but ik it would shred vocals lol

[supple acorn]

the reason I like Tyler’s screams is that he knows how to use them to enhance a song

I really don’t enjoy songs that are all screams

Tyler adds them in moderation

and they’re rare

which makes them extra special and potent

[delicate tapir]

same. I like some screams, but there are a few songs I like that are mostly screams

but it depends on the type of scream lol

[supple acorn]

I needa learn how to scream like bro does in The Line tbh

I can hit the note in chest voice on a good day, but it doesn’t have that texture

I wanna get that register down

[delicate tapir]

like I like LP screams, but not anything really heavier than them

[supple acorn]

LESGO THE LINE WON

[delicate tapir]

YES

[supple acorn]

https://tenor.com/view/charlie-woooo-yeah-baby-gif-24480925

[weary stag]

NOOO MY GOAT

OKAY BY THE LINE IS STILL RLLY GOOD

[delicate tapir]

I think it is a masterpiece tbh. very sad

[magic hearth]

I CAN FEEL THE LIGHT SHINE ON

MY

FACEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

[delicate tapir]

hearing that scream for the first time had me shook

I was watching the game awards in real time and was already like "everyone here is in for a treat" with TOP playing and now i need more songs done with the game awards orchestra lol

[zealous flint]

and just like that the song battles are over 😢

[hollow cobalt]

THE LINE SUPREMACY!

[ocean remnant]

The line definitely

[dull pecan]

line

[harsh thorn]

Nooo. Level of concern lost

Goodbye song battles forever 😭

[analog gyro]

song battles come back please

[late perch]

Where album winner song battles

[delicate tapir]

Just start pitting all of the songs against eachother

Best Album openers

[wheat panther]

this is not close enough results, im making it everyones problem

[prime valve]

Now a winners bracket

[idle sky]

https://tenor.com/view/lady-gaga-lgbt-cop-cyclops-twitter-edit-stan-twitter-gif-8516717362471105773

[dull pecan]

They better not start Breach song battles on the day of release

Cause Contract and Drum show gonna lose immediately cause people are gonna love the freshness of new songs

give it a week i say!!!

[wheat panther]

i think it's less an issue of recency and more an issue of not giving people enough time to process any of the songs before making them vote lol

[muted dirge]

I say wait till after the tour

A lot of people judge songs like the line based on live performances. Might as well give breach that chance

[supple acorn]

too long I think

let people vote off fresh memory, would be more fun lol

[hexed bluff]

one battle when breach comes out, one battle after the tour, boom

problem solved

and then compare outcome

[indigo jewel]

the good ending

[idle sky]

duh it needs time

[idle sky]

the only ending

[fringe pulsar]

I didn’t vote for the like for recent bias, I think it’s just genuinely a bit better of a song than heathens or LOC. although LOC live from outside is really good too

[lunar mantle]

the line scream has me ascending to a new plane of existence

[neon lagoon]

Also. Locs live version goes harder than the single too I think. Seems sum votes went off the live version but it’s 🐛🫘

[hidden trail]

Definitely

[indigo jewel]

loc from the outside is better than the studio version yea

[median escarp]

true

[pastel nymph]

https://tenor.com/view/ascension-sponge-bob-gif-15077046

[long verge]

HELL YEAH THE LINEEEE

[neon lagoon]

🦫🦫🦫🦫 rigged cuz the line between whether to choose between single or live version ig wasn’t clear so yeah rigged but um I’ll stop

[empty bone]

awh man i wanted loc

i can’t believe the voting is all over!!

kinda sad

i looked forward to striking arguments with the clique on accident when i was gazing the thread to see what people were voting for /silly /lh

i had 4pm in my brain ready for new ones hehe

[wanton heath]

ok so how i do go on without song battles they were LITERALLY my fav time of the day.

[dusk wasp]

sorry to break the ned's but I have a feeling either Centermass or City Walls will win the Breach Song Battles. I will make up for breaking the ned chain with another ned.

I think center mass deserves the win
