We React To Dance Gavin Dance: Synergy ( Feat. Rob Damiani)

[@TheMrodgers23]

Can confirm they do sound like this live. I was skeptical my first time then Jon came out fucking screaming and tilian hit a crazy high note in we own the night and after that I knew I'd made a wonderful decision.

[@mariettaconcha3198]

Jon Mess, screamer, writes lyrics that go with the music, so sometimes its just gibberish, but sometimes it goes with the song or with what Tillian is singing. Listen to Tree City Sessions Man of the year of you want to hear how amazing they are live. I've seen them live, Jon and Tillian are just impressively talented. The band is amazing. You guys should catch them if they come to your area, you'll love them. They're going on tour soon.

[@Haiku7Quail]

One of my favorite songs, and the live recording looks and sounds amazing.

[@Izanagi-Okami]

Man of the Year is legit my favorite song

[@ln9256]

please dear God listen to this! tree city sessions 2 was my first live DGD experience and it was otherworldly

[@miikro]

Really cool thing about Mess' gibberish lyrics: they're actually made to accompany the percussion of the song. He uses his vocal cadence to add an additional rhythm instrument to the song and I've never heard anyone else do anything like it in music.

[@_zombie_queen_]

I've done merch next to them many a tours. I've been around since chris was clean singing. They're so Talented, and weird nice dudea.

[@InfamousMumbleXero]

The respect that all these reaction videos give the Bassist is amazing. Tim passed away recently & seeing all of the flowers given to him lately has been amazing. Your reactions give a smile to my face when it comes to DGD. Welcome to the community of misfits lol

[@meowsohard]

“Who told that bassist he could go that hard” 🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲

[@Stormshadow612-n8g]

Those guitar sounds on the break downs are so dope. They sound keyboard like

[@adioking89]

Possibly my most favorite lyric from John Mess in this song is at the beginning when he says "if your feeling me piss its probably best if i stop the stream"😂 And Swan is quite possibly my favorite guitarist ever he's so good.

[@maryhales4595]

Welcome to the wonderful journey that is Dance Gavin Dance!! (I think Kyle's dancing was my favorite part of this whole amazing reaction.) Also, Tim Feerick always has super groovy bass lines. They're awesome.

[@FartoonNetwork]

The new album Jackpot Juicer 🎰🍋🍓🍊 drops July 29

[@entrakitarms]

Quality. Love DGD

[@davidpolomski3672]

My favorite Band

[@kwhundredk]

One thing about their music videos is there is a ton of lore and an actual story. Their album covers and music videos both show this animal vs robot narrative

[@reef_777]

fr

[@Grizzly0372]

If you don't mind going a little bit into their past songs, highly recommend Inspire the Liars, Midnight Crusade, Born to fail. Shows the evolution across 3 albums

[@aziskarimsantoso]

I hope you guys can check out some of their songs on the Mothership album, like Chucky vs Giant Tortoise and Man of The Year

[@ryansteckel9281]

Chucky 🤘🏻 it will show them Will doesn’t just use pedal effects to make those sounds!

[@mainey1512]

If you like Robs vocal then checking out his band 'Don Broco' would be a good idea. They have a great groove with great hooks. Action and one true prince are awesome songs 🤙

[@DosColasClips]

8:16 "the appreggios" made me lose it

[@smcgehee24]

If you want to go on a musical journey definitely check out “man of the year” from the tree city sessions 2 live album. They are amazing live

[@erickernestoserratosgalleg4692]

That bassist just passed away

[@SequenceBreaker64]

Im here for all future DGD reactions

[@YvetteSummer]

ok PLEASE REACT TO DANCE GAVIN DANCE SON OF ROBOT!!! Classic hit by them and one of everyones all time favorites. would love to see you guys listen to it if you already havent

[@Kenenandkellan]

Their bassist just died. He was a fuckin amazing dude and bassist. If you wanna listen to a song that showcases it, Count Bassy, and Strawberry’s Wake are good ones. Good content

[@raur4862]

You should watch through the video and react, then watch through while reading the lyrics in the description! It's a great song lyrically so its a shame you missed it!

[@mynamegig]

Would suggest trying out "say hi" if you want the screamer to be the lyricist of the song instead of the lead

[@hunterwaits6578]

Royal Coda next??

[@kashmirmay]

they're new song "pop off!" just came out, you should react to it!! And the new album comes out July 29th!!

[@leafreinert8228]

You should react to Rob’s band Don Broco. I recommend the track One True Prince

[@romney14yea39]

RIP Tim🙏🏾

[@mattgannon7113]

welcome to swancore

[@ddvjbh]

I'm a fan of Dance Gavin Dance's song Inspire the Liars. The video is a bit crazy and distracting to the music. It does have a story but I would check out their lyric video. I like the screamer lyrics in that song too.

[@AlmightyWill101]

Pls listen to Jackpot Juicer!

[@EricTheBuddha]

Just subscribed and if you want more dance Gavin dance songs to check out, look up inspire the liars, hands down my favorite

[@fridayjuniorjuniorfrizzle9272]

didnt even mention the dancing rats!!!

[@tylersimo1977]

Hear me out on this one please. Machine gun Kelly See my tears. It’s an older one by him but his has so much meaning and I think you’d both enjoy the compassion behind the lyrics. Have a great day!

[@justincosentino3388]

Dude you lost me at day to remember….

[@Chazhanlin]

Stop comparing dgd to adr....jfc. one's been around longer than the other, you tell me which?

[@MartysBetterGaming]

10:40 RIP Tim, was legitimately my favorite bass player working today, can't wait to hear his final pieces of work on this upcoming album.

[@johnzahller7605]

absolutely devastating. Still trying to process this

[@Jinxy63]

Yep RIP HUGE FAN of DGD and I wishing them all the best

[@hunterwaits6578]

Makes me cry every time..

[@hunterwaits6578]

Rest In Peace Tim

[@N_D_H]

fuck, man, it's already been nine months. RIP to the realest one.

[@geoff3610]

Man I almost cried when you mentioned the bassist. He recently passed, RIP Tim. We're waiting on word for the album. Lmao he actually says "checkin my views," he's singing about being social media-dependent cause he's addicted to the attention. "I'm living life as if i'm already dead" is a reference to how people tend only praise you after you die. This is all speculation, but the lyrics I gave are right anyway 😂

[@kosykruption5709]

Runnin on fumes, checkin my views, scrolling for a comment that proves....i don't need more motivation

[@leora2792]

You should check out Don Broco since you’ve heard Rob now!They actually have a song called Action that features the clean vocalist of Dance Gavin Dance along with a few other vocalists.

[@wcanderton]

ACTION! is such a banger

[@koyote313]

Another new thing with this song is Andrew Wells of Eidola is now on rhythm guitars while Will Swan is the main guitarist. I feel like for the band this is great. Where Jon Mess brings complete contrast to Tilian Pearson in vocals, I feel like Andrew Wells is bringing contrast to Will Swan in guitars. It flows well with DGD's style.

[@AutomaticDuck300]

And I think they were a bit uninspired in Afterburner. They all seemed like they were just going through the motions. But it seems like they're putting more effort into it now. Hopefully Andrew has brought back the inspiration and got them back into their groove.

[@bigfitts]

Damn you beat to it

[@jamesduzjitz_91]

Your comparisons crack me up lol. Watch the Tree City Sessions 2 for that beautiful live content. Also Jon's content sounds like nonsense but he kinda speaks in riddles. Theres meaning behind everything. They have an entire lore behind a handful of videos.

[@nsg0023]

Came to say this. Everyone always talks about how Jon's lyrics are nonsense, but you nailed it. Might not be the easiest to decipher, but theres a meaning in there.

[@monikalopezzz]

DGD songs you gotta react to next: Inspire the Liars Betrayed by the Game Head Hunter And finally the most requested track: Man of the Year (Tree city sessions live). I’ll be back if you review more!!!!!!!!

[@elirdz]

A thousand times yes!! I've been on an obsessive phase with inspire the liars, it goes so hard

[@thecatsmeow11]

Dgd has really good lyrics, the screamer does have funny lyrics a lot of the time 😂 it’s almost as if for comedic relief from the other intense lyrics or that’s how I look at it. Not all the time though, they have a song called Say Hi and a Jon Mess lyric that always stood out to me was “how do I say hi to another guy when I want to die?” You should check it out!

[@thecatsmeow11]

Another jon mess favorite is “I couldn’t wait to tap into the brain of my cat and let him know he’s my little baby meow meow boo”

[@Butter-yb5by]

Mess’s lyrics also connect some of the lore. Yes. To my knowledge DGD songs have lore. It’s incredible.

[@ariiincolur]

@@thecatsmeow11 my favorite is “ achoo Achoo, the pollen you so rude, the mucus I produce, it’s more than just a nuisance its abuse” which in my opinion is the perfect way to describe allergies.😂

[@Tonyboy2342]

I think someone already mentioned it but yeah “man of the year” from their tree city sessions 2 album is a live performance of that song. The video for it has been pretty popular on KZbin too, I think you’d be surprised how great they sound live Other than that you guys are doing great!

[@thomasbehrmann9821]

totally agree, they should react to it, super good live

[@jsayther]

I second this, check out man of the year live

[@jeffy5412]

“Who told that bassist he could go that hard” RIP Tim Fucking legend

[@andrewkolff7318]

Tillian sounds even better live. I've never felt anything as deep in my spine as him hitting the high notes live in Inspire the Liars.

[@maryhales4595]

Oh that sounds like a dream. I would love to hear that song live.

[@Miguel-xj5pg]

@@maryhales4595they are on tour currently and I just saw them last night. They are absolutely amazing live and sound even better somehow. 11/10 1000% would do it again and again and again

[@Miguel-xj5pg]

@@maryhales4595if you can you should check them out for the memory itself

[@ProjectileComet]

You all get excited about all the right parts lol, Really would love you to dig real deep into DGD before their new album comes out. Lots of quality and a loooong history

[@MariaGomez-nk9gx]

“FITTED WITH A GIMMICK MAKE A CYNICAL WOW MANY MEN WENT IN IT BUT THEY COULDN’T GET OUT” ALWAYS makes me wanna bust down a move 🔥🔥

[@_tokii__]

The cleans have lyrical meaning, and depending on which songs you listen to, the screamer for the most part doesn't make much sense. But the song Man of the Year is consistent all the way through. Also you guys have so many gems to go through.

[@OGDoubleJ]

Why no comment on the twerking rats! 🐀 Hahaha

[@HalloTschuess]

Where is that goaty figure in the background from? I think its from some Scandinavian Christmas-themed Horror Movie but i can't remember the name. I dig that character design.

[@taylorlafever5510]

Love the enthusiasm! Glad you guys are enjoying the song almost as much as myself. Rob Damiani is from Don Broco, who are fantastic! One of my favorite bands, you guys absolutely have to check them out! Greatness, One True Prince, and Everybody are good places to start but honestly, they literally DO NOT MISS.

[@FalleniLy]

Im sure someone else has already said it, but please please please, Man of the Year - Tree City Sessions 2

[@ColvinBlog]

Tillians the angel on you're shoulder, John mess is on the other side xp screaming chaos 😈😎

[@_zombie_queen_]

Tim...when they mentioned the bass. I started crying. I saw you every year, mw working merch tables, never bothered anyone ,always gave you as much as polite hello and goodbye. I get it. You get man handled alot. It was just nice saying hey. It meant a lot to me..

[@marclipps3028]

Dance gavin dance to me is post hardcore meets pop rock meets animals as leaders. There fun and they make awesome music

[@Stormshadow612-n8g]

That Rob dude sounds just like the singer in Panic at the disco

[@ARealFeverDream]

How many beer glasses do you have ? 😂😂

[@the_campfire_official]

He has an arsenal!

[@RoxxyFly]

Yall should do more DGD. Id give you a list but thats be a lot haha. I would suggest prisoner thats what got me completely hooked. Id like to add since ive watched the whole video, aside from falling in reverse the only band where ithink I've listened to every song is dance gavin dance because you're right they almost have that same feel but different enough. Wait now way am i first?? Hell yeah!!!!

[@n0rthlane317]

Dont wanna bring the mood down from this amazing song and great freaking video, but RIP Tim Feerick. He IS the bass player for DGD. No one will ever be able to fill his shoes and provide what he did for the band. You will be missed Tim..

[@MrB0Obs]

lol ya got the lyrics a little wrong but great reaction

[@jorgelopez1985]

I just noticed your guys subs are rising quick

[@Rykerroad]

It seems to be at a healthy pace so far.

[@El-ingobernable]

if they keep doing DGD they definitely will rise lol Thats why i subbed

[@framar601]

Speaking about Spoken, you guys should react to Spoken - Nightmare. They are not getting the recognition they deserve and noone reacts to them as well.

[@breezypeed666]

rest in peace tim,, he always went harder than he had any right to

[@jwest86]

Oh, he had a right to. Miss you Tim 💚

[@Butter-yb5by]

Please react to man of the year tree city sessions live. So you can experience them live.

[@itsscoutabout1729]

Reaction recommendations Bury Tomorrow- Death, VirUS by Caliban and Levitate by Bleed From Within Also look up Don Broco

[@worduser899]

"He has to check on his fuse, he's running on fumes, I need to look at where I'm at - I'm about to explode right now". "That was said with meaning, like there's something there". Damn, Kyle. With Tilian just having ruined his career and even possibly sinking the entire band - that lyrical dissection takes on another form.

[@HYDN150]

Wait, we got a metal head and a hip hop head? why not please both listeners with the same band? Load up any of these songs for a mixture of both from Dance Gavin Dance, Eagle vs Crows, Spooks, Powder to the People, Chocolate Jackalope. There's others, but these songs in particular have full verses of their lead guitar player, Will Swan, rapping in the songs.

[@sentient_waste]

Hey gang, I just started watching your channel through one of the Sleep Token reaction videos --- I would like to thank you guys much, I've been going through hell this past week and to just chill and listen to my favourite songs and seeing that y'all enjoy it as much as you do, has been so so great! Bless up and keep on keepin on !!

[@cindypierre7532]

Please do sacrifice by the devil wears prada! Not metal head but wow, on repeat for WEEKS!!!

[@dhufeainn9169]

If you want another rap feel scream try their old song called strawberry swisher pt3

[@WhiskeyFiend]

Want to hear them live? Man of the Year from tree city sessions 2 is them "live"

[@DMQ94]

Their 10th studio album Jackpot Juicer comes out July 29th!!

[@jordonbowman6612]

Nuuuuu nu nu nu guys, Jon (dirty vocalist) makes very well thought out, clever af metaphors that you have to put together, it is a mind game that will sound like nonsense to most. Often ppl just don't understand until they are explained the meaning in the words, every song is that much more interesting when you really take the time to read the lyrics and piece it together 😉

[@wesleyduncan535]

Rob Damiani is the lead singer of Don Broco. Ya'll should check them out as well.

[@blvkechvz6167]

Summertime gladness is a banger from DGD that you should check out, whether it be on here or in your free time.

[@metroskyes5974]

dgd recorded sounds like dgd live😉

[@itsukori609]

Will swan is the guitarist, he’s absolutely legendary and definitely worthy of every award that ever existed. My absolute favorite guitarist

[@GrinnSkull]

I’m sure it’s been said but please check out the robot with the human hair series of videos -enjoy

[@mattkelso2892]

The Spoken comp was spot on! I've been listening to DGD for years and never made that connection. I've seen them live countless times, and they only get better. Check out the live version of We Own The Night from a Warped Tour a few years ago. Jump down the rabbit hole of this band, y'all will not regret it!

[@Stormshadow612-n8g]

I hope mess does more rapping technique on this album. Vs just screaming

[@ElijahRaynee]

you guys should react to the whole album! Honestly every song is a banger

[@El-ingobernable]

i was kinda hoping you'd guys check out more of them before doing this one lol BUT you guys can still check out their previous singers.. the Jonny Craig eras -"And I Told Them I Invented Times New Roman" -"Lemon Meringue Tie" -"Spooks" -"Blue Dream" Or the Kurt Travis era -"Me And Zoloft Get Along Just Fine" -"Uneasy Hearts Weigh The Most" -"Tree Village" -"NASA"

[@reef_777]

definitely recommend reacting to one man's cringe from their new album

[@jaytriestoplay3647]

Best lyrics jon ever wrote: bleh bleh bleh bleh bleeh bleeeehhhh

Man, I haven’t heard anyone mention the band Spoken in many years! I used to listen to them a lot.

[@iWanderthewastes]

I was supposed to go to bed an hour ago 😭 please do more dance Gavin dance

If you read up on the drama of the band, Born to Fail is a banger

Check out some of there older stuff would love to hear y’all’s take on em

[@stoned_]

Checkin my “views” not fuse

[@TheEnlightenShadow]

I would love to see more DGD reactions. with the new album coming out soon you guys should definitely check out their previous albums. each album/Era has bangers of their own. and if you're liking this SOUND you guys should check anything from the most recent albums

[@j.anthony8583]

I know exactly one Spoken song and love it
