Sometimes it’s just so overwhelming and my mind’s resolve is to just cry haha. I honestly think his voice is one of the most beautiful voices I’ve ever heard. Hearing him sing live in person is literally the best experience I’ve ever had. Saw them during their SAI tour and I friggin love that album. (Idk how ppl dislike it.) I love every song.

Their Self-Titled is super underrated, man. That album might is my most nostalgic album of all time. I like Trench more, but nothing compares to the amount of memories I have attached to the self-titled. Taxi Cab is obviuosly TOP's best song, makes me cry every time

I was a fan who had never seen them until Clancy Night 2. I know every song (admittedly my RAB and Self Titled are a little rusty 😅) to the point where I could keep along with Tyler at the show. They have helped deal with trauma and depression, and I’ve introduced them to my two sisters who also went to the show and kept along with me. They’ve saved my life and the life of many others and for that I’ll be listening no matter what project they put out.

Thankfully now i own them cause i got the og cds from ebay. But yeah these guys got me through a LOT. As someone who didnt vibe with Scaled and Icy as much (though i didn't diss it), I'm LOVING CLANCY!!! The theme of the new album seems to be "you've gone through a lot, now what? How do i stop myself from falling back into negative thoughts and habits?" Which really resonates with me. And i agree it feels like a loveletter to their whole discography. Great vid dude!!

I was someone who kinda fell off during the SAI era. It just wasn't my vibe and didn't give me the same feelings as all the other albums did, especially since I absolutely loved Trench. I also was not immersed and aware of the lore going on (I knew it was a thing, but that's it) so I had no idea it was meant to be propaganda. Still loved the band, the album just wasn't for me. It has grown on me as my tastes have expanded a bit. I really like Redecorate, The Outside, and No Chances, and I can vibe with Shy Away and Saturday when I'm in the mood. With the release of Clancy, I watched a very long lore deep dive video and am now fully immersed in and obsessed with the world of Trench, and absolutely love the Clancy album. Still waiting for the Paladin Strait MV tho!

excellent analysis! the best video that tells the story of the band i have ever seen, seriously. i loved how you tied every song and detail together and even quoted lines from the songs while telling the story. and also managed to touch on all the topics! incredible job. btw, about that tweet with the platforms. tyler's humor has always been so mocking, sarcastic and even a bit rude. so i knew right away it was a joke and honestly i still think it's a bit genius. but yeah, he was walking on very thin ice back then..... and the situation after SAI's release. I felt incredibly bad for the guys, still do, because it was like people were going crazy back then - removing tattoos, burning merch.... I've never seen such hatred and rejection just because an artist changed the sound and atmosphere in a new album. skeleton clique is something else. both in a good and bad way.

Didn’t know Johnny Boy was about Tyler’s father and related to the recession. I never really understood the song until now. Wish I learned about it before my own dad passed away - he went through a similar situation, but long before the recession, and because of other people’s actions. Yet another way in which TØP is helping me. I still have unresolved feelings about these events, and I have a feeling the song is going to be a big part of my TØP music therapy sessions from now on.

I was listening to them like CRAZY during 2021 and 2022, just not really SAI that much.

It's a mix of almost every style you could think of minus country. Each song has a different style but overall they share alt. Then a list of other styles. Common styles they use in there songs is alt and rock. Most songs have those plus like 5 different ones (For most of them) But they have variation. There music also includes ukuleles, screaming, singing, and rapping. Depending on the song. So the best way to explain it. Is to listen to there music yourself :) highly suggest great band

[@andi01452]

That's a fair opinion. I for one appreciates how sai shows their duality and that I can listen to different parts of their discography after any mood or situation I'm in. It was well made and had the tøp flare to the songs. Although I absolutely agree it shouldn't be a sound that sticks around for too much in future albums or for a long time overall in their careers, only if it makes sense for what they want to convey or if it fits sporadically on an album’s overall sound. For me the sound can be a biit much when I listen to sai from start to finish, but as standalone songs on shuffle I love them. In that way I’m happy Tyler said sai was made like that on purpose for the lore, that there was thought behind these choices.
