[@Azureize]

RIP Tim, he passed away today. He's the bass player for DGD. We have lost another great artist.

[@torinthe]

loved Jon Mess' style because he can use his screams creatively for contrast of voice/tone, humor, thematic urgency, or just reliable gutteral chaos. His pairing with Tilian is a top shelf match, both are fantastic with their intent and delivery of vocals.

[@mattallen2392]

Well said! I agree 100%

[@BeyondKieran]

His fast flows are crazyyy

[@dammitshelby2603]

If you read Jons lyrics, I think you would re-think the angst angle; they mostly resemble sentences made from word magnets on a fridge at 3am 😅 some of my all-time favourite lyrics come from his verses, or Will's from when he did the screaming, way-back-when.

[@josephjiran9500]

The most accurate summation of jons lyrics i have ever heard

[@wizously]

"Riding a rhino, Pico degio!" Is my favorite song line ever

[@cladiosanchez6865]

Lmao him screaming about being a cat, or sounding like a 5 year old half the time

[@miikro]

100%. His lyrics aren't designed to make sense, they're all about cadence. Jon Mess is a human rhythm instrument because he's keeping the beat with words. It never really clicked with me in concept until Summertime Gladness.

[@LampyGames]

@@miikro "You know my origin story, born in the cemetery" fucking bangs though

[@parmoreluvr99]

pleeeeeease do a reaction to “here comes the winner” by them!! one of my favorites from dgd, tilian’s vocals are insane on that track

[@gammagong9435]

Dear Heavens, Yes!

[@ggr9745]

He would love this one. Absolutely one of their best songs.

[@_Tyrel_]

Agreed plz

[@LukaTheDon77]

YESSIRSKI Here Comes the Winner is still probably my favorite DGD song to this day

[@thomascollins2765]

Such a good song

[@__Raze]

The guy behind the counter you asked about at about 4:08 is Andrew Wells, of the band Eidola. Previously they were a touring guitarist for DGD and have been involved in the creative process and featured in the last few albums now; Andrew recently joined the band as a full member. Very talented guy, and Eidola is awesome.

[@Mr66sharingan]

is he also back up on the "im living life, im living life as if im already dead"? cause it kinda sounded like him

[@fazzi4924]

@@Mr66sharingan that's likely Rob since he's featured in the song. He has that solo verse but in later parts of the song it sounds more like him with the lower back up vocals

[@__Raze]

Definitely Rob

[@Drumist]

@@Mr66sharingan probably if they play it live, andrew can sing that part instead

[@taterthot4704]

On this note, he should react to Eidola now!

[@skyleramory]

Watching this after hearing about Tim, I almost started crying when you brought up Taylor Hawkins. Thank you for loving and appreciating DGD as much as we all have. Much love to you Dance David

[@nickg13]

I thought he was going to say Tim… 😢

[@Callsign_Kishin]

I just came back from Swan Fest this weekend and Tilian seemed off and wasn’t singing during certain songs, turns out he was actually Crying and left the stage for a moment. The audience sang for Tilian and we all felt his pain. We’ve lost a member of DGD, they lost a band member, a brother, a friend, and Sacramento has lost one of her proud sons. RIP Tim. Fly High Brother.

[@sgman173]

@@Callsign_Kishin i was there as well. That was a heavy show

[@Callsign_Kishin]

@@sgman173 You could hear it in Tilian's voice. I never heard his voice that raspy, and then it hit me.

[@sgman173]

@@Callsign_Kishin 100% i didn’t notice it at first when the entire crowd was basically singing until i realized his voice never came back in. It was a really special moment Everytime the crowd took over though

[@tylerawol3704]

time to fall down the Don Broco rabbit hole as well, I had never heard of them until this song. instantly fell in love with them

[@alexv0714]

Hey Dave, if you haven't already heard the tragic news, DGD's bassist Tim Feerick just passed away. it's a shock and devastating loss to our community and personally as a friend it's heartbreaking. maybe this is a long shot, but if you could do something in his memory, whether it's a song review of the first album he was on, or even a more in depth/music theory breakdown of one of his DGD Bass Covers from his own KZbin channel, as he was a very talented bassist with very cool ideas that he deserves to be commended for, that would be REALLY cool to see. much appreciation.

[@MusicShed]

Incredibly sad

[@jonahwhitney5455]

Just can’t believe it. Rip Tim, fly high.

[@alexv0714]

@@jonahwhitney5455 I'm still in unable to process it. I was ready to wake up this morning and find out it was a bad dream. gone WAY too soon... I'll miss his KZbin videos and everything he gave us.

[@jonahwhitney5455]

@@alexv0714 same here, it just doesn’t seem right.

[@downbeatfinancial]

Dude behind the counter was Andrew! Lead singer of Eidola and now official member of DGD. He’s played for dgd on tour for years but now officially a member. His other project, Eidola, is on will swans label and is REALLY good.

[@fazzi4924]

wait is he finally a formal member? I always heard he would never be a formal member because Eidola was priority. that would explain why he's in the music video since he's not really in the others, I don't think

[@zachneiderhouser]

Mr. Swan drops those weedly weedlys so nonchalantly it's almost unbelievable. as a guy with an over expressed weedly weedly gene I feel like this band was made for me

[@ondrejfilipec7068]

Tim Feerick, the bass player, passed away the 13th. What a loss. Rest in peace king.

[@Colby_Purrins801]

Interesting that in the beginning of this he talks about how heartbroken he is with Taylor Hawkins death… and now Tim from Dance Gavin Dance has passed away. Very sad year for the music industry.

[@unadoptedpuppy3535]

"It shouldn't even be called 'genre-bending', it should just be called 'music'." Love that comment.

[@avoqado89]

Here after Tim passing. Having Taylor's passing be the intro is so heartbreaking. Can my favorite musicians stop dying for a little bit please?

[@Mikeymanguy]

DGD's bass player passed away today. makes me sad. he was so talented and young. RIP

[@MusicShed]

Wow, what?!

[@Mikeymanguy]

@@MusicShed yeah they announced it a few days ago. not sure what happened yet.

[@oshke5225]

Rest in peace Tim, we won't forget you legend.

[@Callsign_Kishin]

Tilian: “I’m TOPPED UP, OFTEN!” Not with these gas prices! 😢😂

[@shilomurphy8289]

The song at the beginning is Around The World by RHCP

[@jasonstanko4440]

More DGD!! Just found your channel and I love it! If you want more suggestions by them they have awesome songs that build into beautiful conclusions, some great examples are here comes the winner, man of the year, bloodsucker, and NASA

[@CassieLikesYou]

If you get the chance, check out Carl Barker by DGD. That song was sung by Kurt Travis and Will Swan was the screamer. It’s fantastic. Also recommend checking out something from the Jonny DGD era. Lemon Meringue Tie would be a good one.

[@Tea-iq1mq]

Just because you move hips, doesn't mean that you exist. Maybe one of my favorite DGD songs ever.

[@themikehoncho]

One of my favorites

[@violetburr4984]

DGD has an extensive discography full of interesting sounds. I would highly recommend doing a runthrough of every album to see how they've progressed over the years. DGD's sound is so recognizable because they've been perfecting it for just shy of 2 decades and it's interesting to hear them not quite sound like them. Loved the video!

[@johnsylvester3374]

I love old dance Gavin dance. Even dbm still slaps

[@MichaelDBurns1]

Now you need to react to some Don Broco! All their stuff is great

[@boynxtdoor]

you should react to "Young Robot" from DGD as well, really danceable just like you mentioned

[@Kirkules44]

You’ve got to dig into Don Broco now! Three suggestions: Technology The blues One true prince

[@safteytorch]

You should check out Counterfeit Shrines by Eidola! The second guitarist of DGD Andrew Wells is the lead singer of that band!

[@bradwrites93]

We asked for it, and you delivered, thank you!!!

[@boddy862001]

intro tune is the verse guitar riff from Around The World by Red Hot Chili Peppers

[@snrkbol]

the shirt!!!!!!! our household is so delighted right now!!

[@MusicShed]

THE shirt!!!!

[@Stormshadow612-n8g]

I just discovered this band days ago. They kick fucking ass !!!!! Those guitar parts sound so fucking dope.

[@joshmurphy1861]

Please react to Don Broco! They also have two singers, Rob being the main one

[@ricardoguajardo5343]

More DGD reactions! Please! I love how you enjoy their songs !

[@davidwong6575]

Please react to Eidola. The singer is the guitar player behind the counter in this video. He’s now full time part of DGD as well as playing with Eidola

[@oakley568]

I was just wondering if you had reacted to this song yet, I searched and lo and behold it’s only an hour old! Can’t wait for the new album, keep up the reactions to these guys!!!

[@JakeMurray100p]

Love these videos, you always appreciate the things I appreciate about this music. Keep killing it and posting videos!

[@Orithous]

If you notice, there’s a poster from the “headhunter” video. Should listen to it as well

[@davideljoy]

Oh man, I missed this guys in your channel, and I have to agree with you. One of the best things about DGD is that their music is so rhythmic and overall enjoyable, and even catchy (if I may say so). Wasn’t the biggest fan when I found out about them, but they’ve steadily won my heart. I wish I could see them live some day. And for recs, I’ll never stop saying you should check out Leprous, I really think you’ll enjoy them. I’d suggest Nighttime Disguise or Slave (live at Rockefeller Center). I really think you won’t be disappointed.

[@MasterSwisher]

The guy behind the counter is Andrew! Dudes amazing, he's got his own band called Eidola, you could certainly have a lot of content ahead of you doing reactions to them!

[@ant_raccoon5546]

yes finally more dgd. Keep going they have so many songs you have yet to cover!

[@El-ingobernable]

@10:04 thats how their shows are.... instead of moshing people are dancing, grooving, moving their feet, jammin to the beat.

[@Zogun_85]

You can create your own acronym, DDD (Dense, David, Dense) :D Also recommend that you check out the latest album from Eidola, The Architect. That was album of the year 2021 for me by far! Start with Mutual Fear and then Caustic Prayer, Empty Gardens and Counterfeit Shrines :)

[@lankeysob]

You should really check out Rob Damiani’s band Don Broco. They are fantastic and also super fun to listen to!

[@MrWafflesPaniniDBZTCG]

Check out Testalti by Eidola. As a music theorist, you will enjoy it and would like your take on it is andrew wells band

[@cruton88]

The low voice during the double melody is Andrew Wells. DGD new member. (Not to be confused with Rob who is featured on the track)

[@dorb3560]

Intro was prisoner :)

[@IamIr0nMan]

The first thing I thought when this song came out was “I hope David does a reaction vid”

[@stevenm6301]

They took the Strawberry's Wake style funky hook and ran with it on this one. Incredible song.

[@IImYourAtlas]

i'm so happy you did this song

[@bretters0093]

yeah just saw them in Sacramento a couple days ago they opened with this song, but off the bat you could tell something was missing. That was a hard one the band really broken up with the loss of Tim RIP..

[@WKerrick]

love the channel, love the band, i love hearing your thoughts on the type of music i'm into

[@BB-BA55akaMR-BLEGH]

Rob Damiani is one of the vocalists for Don Broco, also an awesome band

[@TinklesMcgee8123]

One of the best things about Jon's lyrics being messy, is it makes listen number #2-10,000 wayyy more interesting.

[@rozeychan5110]

Also tho, so freaking elated to see you react to the new songs!!!

[@Tinnsfr]

I can back "here comes the winner" And again, please do an erra track! They're equally as incredible and almost as complex of a history as DGD, paralleling them in the sense that they have the beautiful pipes and the messy ones! Can't recommend enough. If you don't react, at least check out their latest stuff!

[@undertheredhood0323]

React to Dance Gavin Dance’s new music video Pop Off!

[@Tokin-Raccoon]

Would be AWESOME to see you do a cover of this song on the keys

[@julianfigueroa2489]

Been waiting for your reaction since they dropped the song 🙌🏼Keep up the awesome work🤘🏼Love the vids

[@21skyscraper]

Hi Dave, I am so happy you are reacting to DGD again! I'd like to see you react to Royal Coda (Will Swan in the guitar!) - Becoming the Memory. Greetings from Mexico 🤘🏻

[@morganclement9178]

RIP Tim Feerick, you are missed.

[@unofficialajay855]

I genuinely think you'll LOVE Evaporate Great blend and mix of vocals between Tilian, Jon Mess and Andrew who's such an amazing vocalist himself It's a different slower paced sound but they're so amazing Bonus: Count Bassy is just as good

[@lillaaa001]

Yesss! Been waiting for your reaction to this, David. Another great video ✌🏻

[@NeilyWins]

We in there

[@kylelesh5456]

I love DGD and your reactions to them. PLEASE do a video on their newer member's (Andrew Michael Wells) band Eidola, their song Mutual Fear featuring Jon. Andrew's voice is my favorite!!

[@_tokii__]

Lol when he saw Tilian smoke. Tilian used to smoked heavily back in the days, he hasn't smoked at all recently until this video I believe.

[@Henribellani]

THANK YOU SO MUCH, I WAS WAITING FOR THIS And yeah, Taylor death caught all Of us by surprise Edit: if I recall correct, Matt had to step back for a while bc alcohol issues Edit: they are all in theirs 30's-mid 30's Can I recommend this song: WINDRUNNER - Scarlet

[@Dylicious_]

Oh man! Love these reactions to my favourite band of all time! Please do one to “stroke god, millionaire” one of my all time favourites

[@123risekenny]

Definitely Top 3 favorite DGD song. The way Tilian comes in "And we can get it in the open tell me all your secrets" is why I had to switch From Jonny to Tilian as my favorite Front Man in DGD.

[@Steven-rn1oo]

Please do a reaction to Manchester Orchestra! Both of their most recent albums are absolute masterpieces! You could pick any song off of either and it would be good! Also, as a BIG DGD fan I greatly appreciate this reaction! I can't wait to see these guys live again next month! They are amazing live and every show is a huge party! If you're on the fence, I'd highly recommend going to see them live!

[@jadehendry8183]

I love what you said about the feeling that Jon brings! The band has stated quite a few times that they care more about the way the music makes you feel, and it really shows in how Jon's lyrics are typically.... weird lol. I think his lyrics add another appealing layer to the music, but it's definitely all about the feeling! Trying to figure out what he's saying and make any sense of it is just a bonus.

[@kaylasmith3070]

not me going absolutely insane because i KNOW what the "guess that tune"thing is in the intro i just cannot for the life of me remember what it's called and i'm gonna have a meltdown

[@ryken_]

Jon is also the golden pipes, how dare you

[@MusicShed]

I wouldn’t say golden. I’d say… copper? Steel? Graphite?

[@kingvarien]

If you want crazy guitar playing from a dude in his 20s I very highly recommend that you react to a Polyphia music video. I'm practically begging you, Dave. I cannot recommend Polyphia to you enough

[@PushingDaisiesBand]

This is the only dude I really wanted to watch this video lol

[@TechFreak94]

Just seeing this video today, 04/15/22. Tim Feerick was found dead. RIP Tim Feerick and Taylor Hawkins. Hope they are jamming together somewhere 🖤🤘🏻

[@bradkohl99]

I could listen to Will Swan riff for days.

[@sixty2612]

DGD puts on one of the few live shows where you get to dance groovy AND mosh. Still have no idea why the juxtaposition works but it does.

[@Ruman17]

RIP Tim!!

I think what you’re trynna say is Tilian built different

[@HI-pi1er]

Evaporate by Dance Gavin Dance

[@luckycharm1oak]

Since you like being told what do lol maybe check out "Volumes". They're a little heavy but really groovy and have some sweet songs! 🤘

[@mariehenderson4608]

Please react to Don Broco! Their song "One True Prince" (Orchestral version) is insanely good! They toured with dgd in 2019 and I have been a fan ever since!

[@trevorludwig5053]

I’d love if you could do any song by Eidola. Or even do nothing shameful by DGD so you can hear Andrew Wells. The three of them on vocals is nuts
