“I think it’s because you haven’t listened to them enough” Yes. 💯. This is why you need to deep dive into more of their music. Every album has a different style. You need to listen to more. Try Mothership.
DGD makes music with "I have no idea what I just watched or heard but I like it" at top of mind. Just gotta find the couple that click for you and then suddenly you'll begin to appreciate all of them.
Andrew Wells of Eidola had featured on some songs, and helpt with writing, and was a touring guitarist for them for like a year, earlier this year he officially joined the band
I fucking loved this song, but I really get the part where this band isn't for everyone. They have this weird sound that takes some time getting used to which is certainly did for me. Now that Andrew Wells is a official member of the band as well I'm really looking forward to more songs with him as an extra vocalist!
Speaking of Don Broco, on Monday they did a show for Teenage Cancer Trust at the Royal Albert Hall accompanied by a Orchestra!!! I was lucky enough to go, it was an amazing show, I’d recommend you check it out if you can find a good quality vid.
They put Andrew in the video! So surreal! I worked with the dude for years. They just recently made him a full member, rather than just a touring member. ^^
I swear if you keep doing DGD you’ll enjoy it…try some from Afterburner, perhaps Nothing Shameful so you can hear Andrew sing as well. They’re fun, quirky, and not for everybody, but I feel like you’d vibe with the newer stuff.
Listen to Instant Gratification all the way through. That was the album that really made me a DGD fan and appreciate them more as a band. It's by far their best album that doesn't feature Jonny Craig as lead clean vocalist (and I would argue even their best album period).
Something about listening to Aussies banter is always a joy. Used to date a girl that had a father straight from Australia. He had some family members over from down under one time, and I remember that the more they drank- the harder it was to understand them. But it was still hilarious. And none of this is related to your video. 😂 About your video: Priceless moment in the beginning of the song when you lads started grooving, then paused to banter. Subscribing for quality. 👌
DGD really found their groove with Tilian - every album since he came on board has just gotten better and better and better. I can't wait to see how they bring the heat for the next album. Great reaction!
DGD grew on me in a way, man. I don't like every single song they put out but once they drop those catchy tracks that they do so well (like this one) fuck I'm hooked! Loved this song so much. Jon's screams still blow my fucking mind. The man is a once in a lifetime talent. Nobody does vocals quite like him. Might not be the best but DAMN is that man talented!
DGD just gets better and better. I really didn't think they could be Mothership, but Afterburner is probably my favorite album since Tillian joined. Jon just keeps killing it too. He is such a unique screamer.
100% agree that there is always some part of the composition thats going a million miles/hour, but I feel like they do such a good job grounding it by incorporating something like a half time drum section or maybe a guitar line running sustained notes up high. Check out "Nothing Shameful" off the Afterburner album, Andrew has a great vocal section on that track. It's insane how much talent is shoved into this one band.
Would love to see you guys do more Dance! The albums that have Titian (Mothership in particular) and their most recent have some incredible songs that would change Johnny's "they never slow it down" take
If you wanna hear a song where Jon's vocals are really crazy compared to normal, check out "Say Hi" off of their album Afterburner. He does most of the vocals for the song, and it's a really good one in general.
At first they didn’t grab me either. It took some off and on with me when I started getting into them. I’d listen to one song, then a few weeks later I’d listen to another. One day I decided to give their album Mothership a whole listen session, and they got my attention. Loved them ever since.
SAME HERE JOHNNY, SAME. Altho i gotta say, i really enjoyed this song more than the others. But still, idk, i cant really get THAT into them. I think it's just that the bass and the guitars and drums sound like 3 totally different elements add to that the vocals/screams. The structure of the songs feels very separate, ig. But there's one song i absolutely LOVEEE by them, it's called NOTHING SHAMEFUL and am so sure you'd love it!!!
The Rob feature and background brought this track to a 10 for me. DGD is also such an interesting band because of the members. At the end you said you wanted to hear more of the screamer, which is exactly what secret band is. Secret band has the screamer, drummer, and main guitarist and both albums are just as varied as DGD albums. Highly reccomend trying the song Biblee or projectile comet, but you could add both albums to a vibey metal playlist too.
This band i do like, but i completely get it when Johnny comments that something just does not quite grab him. I have a similar feeling with a band like Hawthorne Heights. For me, DGD are at there best when with a song like "Midnight Crusade"
I remember Nath bashing Jon's timing on Mutual Fear, but I'm so glad you digged the rap-part in this video :) Best part of the song for me! And you should revisit som Dance Gavin Dance songs, start with Artificial Selection and give it a whole listen. But if you don't dig it you never will because you're probably missing the weedily weedily gene, explained in detail here: ruclips.net/video/vlxkrfqSesY/видео.html Regarding Andrew Wells from Eidola: He's been a touring guitarist for DGD for many years and has done backup vocals in some songs (uncredited) and featured in two songs (Evaporate, which imo is DGD's best song by far, and in Nothing Shameful from their latest album). Now he's become an official member of DGD and will definitely do some vocal tracks on their upcoming album as well as doing a lot of guitar work along with Will Swan. Edit #2: Since you guys like pop-punk a lot you should listen to "Story of my bros" (which they wrote as a tribute song to all their own pop-punk favorites) and their cover of "Semi-Charmed Life"
i have to disagree with one thing. Artificial Selection is their worst album next to their EP. Not because its bad but because every other album is so much better. IMO he should listen to Mothership or Instant Gratification
I know u guys like eidola.. and like parts of DGD.. you need to check out Hail the Sun... their song Domino... honestly their dual guitars are even more crazy then DGD The Drummer is the lead singer.. and they sound like a mix of Mars Volta, DGD and Circa Survive.. if you put those all together you have one of the best bands you have never listened to before. it won't disappoint
Noooo no, no, no, noooooo. Downtown Battle Mountain was not the first album and nooooo, nooo, no, nooooooo. DGD was basically Jonny first album, KURT, then Tillian made them mainstream on a very positive level.
This is all personal level feels. I know a ton of people will disagree... But I hand down prefer Tillian when he was with Tides of Man and even though I locally saw DGD blow up.... As talented as Jonny was, The following vocalists solidified the band sky rocketed them to where they are now on top of the bands talents including multiple member changes
I agree with Johnny. Ive always been the same, they are interesting and I like them in small doses, but I find there isn't enough difference within their albums. Alot of songs sound the same..
I haven't liked these guys since Jonny left. Not even because Jonny left, I just don't like Tilian's singing voice that much. He can sing, no doubt, but I just don't like high pitched singing voices. Same reason I don't like RATM.
Loved this song, I think Rob's vocals complemented Jon and Tilian's SO well and with Andrew a full time member now I hope he can bring more of that to the songs as well, definitely check out nothing shameful on the last album if you want to hear a song featuring your Eidola man!
RIP Tim. He's playing groovy ass bass lines in another dimension now :(
Will Swan is the lead guitarist and you need the Weebly Weebly Gene to truly fall in love with dgd's sounds
is that a Finn McKenty reference? 😅
@@mattkraig 🤣
It’s Weedly Weedly 😁🤣
*Weebly Weebly Gene*
😂🤣
“I think it’s because you haven’t listened to them enough” Yes. 💯. This is why you need to deep dive into more of their music. Every album has a different style. You need to listen to more. Try Mothership.
Send me your top 3 DGD tracks on IG and I’ll check em out - J
@@nathandjohnny I would highly suggest "Inspire the Liars" from the Mothership album, definitely one of the top tracks on the album
@@nathandjohnny mothership is for sure worth a listen, Inspire the Liars, Man of the Year, and Frozen One are three great tracks of the album.
@@nathandjohnny Man of the year for sure, inspire the liars and care
@@nathandjohnny Honestly, just all of Mothership is worth a listen ! This album is easily in my top 5 albums of all time. So fcking good !
DGD makes music with "I have no idea what I just watched or heard but I like it" at top of mind. Just gotta find the couple that click for you and then suddenly you'll begin to appreciate all of them.
True, and i agreee with what Nath said, Tillian Joining the band gave them a great sound and completed them for me
Exactly
"Man that bass player is good" 💔
RIP Tim.
Andrew from Eidola actually officially joined DGD and will be on a lot of songs in the upcoming album!
Dance Gavin Dance and Don Broco are my all time favourite bands so I screamed when this came out.
Johnny needs to start with Mothership if he decides to look into DGD again. Such a fantastic album with tons of groove.
For sure, I feel like it's impossible to listen to "Inspire the Liars" and/or "Man of the Year" and not get hooked on these guys!
Andrew Wells of Eidola had featured on some songs, and helpt with writing, and was a touring guitarist for them for like a year, earlier this year he officially joined the band
You guys need to react to more Dance Gavin Dance and this song was a lot of fun can't wait for the next one they have coming up 🤘
Lmao you guys predicted what happens in their next music video hahaha
2:55. Ya I had no idea either. I only knew that they did the song "evaporate" together.
On their last tour, Tillian got Covid and Andrew would fill in for all of Tillians parts. He did an amazing job.
I fucking loved this song, but I really get the part where this band isn't for everyone. They have this weird sound that takes some time getting used to which is certainly did for me. Now that Andrew Wells is a official member of the band as well I'm really looking forward to more songs with him as an extra vocalist!
That track is awesome....John Mess on the floor screaming in double time is next level. Stop playin'...you know you like it.
Y'all gotta do 'Nothing shameful' 100% , Andrew wells from Eidola has such an amazing part in this song !
More DGD! They are the best. The BEST! Jon Mess is a goddamn legend.
Speaking of Don Broco, on Monday they did a show for Teenage Cancer Trust at the Royal Albert Hall accompanied by a Orchestra!!! I was lucky enough to go, it was an amazing show, I’d recommend you check it out if you can find a good quality vid.
That's so cool of them
Don Broco is literally my favorite band now. And it’s thanks to this song.
Johnny please check out Nothing Shameful and Evaporate, both stellar tracks featuring vocals from Andrew Wells (Daddy Dola)!
Matching AF! Watching this in my metal af shirt was definitely the right choice ✌🏻
They put Andrew in the video! So surreal! I worked with the dude for years. They just recently made him a full member, rather than just a touring member. ^^
Jon Mess is a mastermind and artist. Have a painting of his
4:30. RIP Tim. Incredible bassist as you said. So sad.
My favorite band 😎😍🤘
I swear if you keep doing DGD you’ll enjoy it…try some from Afterburner, perhaps Nothing Shameful so you can hear Andrew sing as well. They’re fun, quirky, and not for everybody, but I feel like you’d vibe with the newer stuff.
Yes i truly think afterburner would Convert Johnny to be a DGD lover.
One in a million, Prisoner, Strawberrys wake and nothing shameful. 😎
EVAPORATE!!!!
This is fun!
I was going to ask if y'all would react to this, especially in honor of Tim Feerick's unexpected death. But I'm happy to see y'all already have!
RIP Tim 😔
Listen to Instant Gratification all the way through. That was the album that really made me a DGD fan and appreciate them more as a band. It's by far their best album that doesn't feature Jonny Craig as lead clean vocalist (and I would argue even their best album period).
yes!!! you missed some great videos and even better songs from DGD.. from their last album.. strawberrys wake and prisoner were awesome!
Something about listening to Aussies banter is always a joy.

That song was straight up a good time, so fun and groovy.
Y’all vibin with the whole song is great!! 🤟🏽🔥
"Is it because you're a bad person?" 😂🤣 I laughed so hard
But is it wrong? 🤔
DGD grew on me in a way, man. I don't like every single song they put out but once they drop those catchy tracks that they do so well (like this one) fuck I'm hooked! Loved this song so much. Jon's screams still blow my fucking mind. The man is a once in a lifetime talent. Nobody does vocals quite like him. Might not be the best but DAMN is that man talented!
Check out Nothing Shameful. Andrew from eidola songs on that one and it’s one of their best songs
Yup, if DGD will go full on rap with those vocals, I'm on board
DGD just gets better and better. I really didn't think they could be Mothership, but Afterburner is probably my favorite album since Tillian joined. Jon just keeps killing it too. He is such a unique screamer.

Caskets just announced they're touring with DGD come September in the EU/UK. Why do I have to live in Australia? No one ever comes here. :(
Would love to see you guys do more Dance! The albums that have Titian (Mothership in particular) and their most recent have some incredible songs that would change Johnny's "they never slow it down" take
Andrew is now official to DGD as of recently
This song sounds a lot like the album Mothership style, which is my favorite
If you wanna hear a song where Jon's vocals are really crazy compared to normal, check out "Say Hi" off of their album Afterburner. He does most of the vocals for the song, and it's a really good one in general.
You bruvs need to react to SiM - THE RUMBLING, you won't be disappointed. It's currently the top song on US Hard Rock Billboard, give it a try mate!
Gotta check out Dayseeker's new track, "Neon Grave"
yaaap man. this is a vocalist from eidola
rip tim.
love you guys. that's all i have to say. as a kiwi i am obligated to be a compatriate and sworn enemy to u ^-^ NZ ROOLZ xoxo
🤣💙
DGD is from my hometown!
At first they didn’t grab me either. It took some off and on with me when I started getting into them. I’d listen to one song, then a few weeks later I’d listen to another. One day I decided to give their album Mothership a whole listen session, and they got my attention. Loved them ever since.
Yeah I dont really care for their early stuff. With Tillian I started listening.
Windwaker - Glow
Check out their song Inspire the Liars please!!
I get what you mean bro. I love this band but I definitely had that feeling before about other bands in the past.
SAME HERE JOHNNY, SAME. Altho i gotta say, i really enjoyed this song more than the others. But still, idk, i cant really get THAT into them. I think it's just that the bass and the guitars and drums sound like 3 totally different elements add to that the vocals/screams. The structure of the songs feels very separate, ig.
But there's one song i absolutely LOVEEE by them, it's called NOTHING SHAMEFUL and am so sure you'd love it!!!
Go back and do some afterburner reactions! Prisoner is AMZING!

You guys should check out 'Chaosbay', small band from Germany who has been dropping solid af songs as of late. 'The prophet' or 'eternal eyes'
This band i do like, but i completely get it when Johnny comments that something just does not quite grab him. I have a similar feeling with a band like Hawthorne Heights. For me, DGD are at there best when with a song like "Midnight Crusade"

I love their cover of Semi-Charmed Life. Just when you think Tilian can't go any higher, and then he hits that otherworldly note... chef's kiss
i have to disagree with one thing. Artificial Selection is their worst album next to their EP. Not because its bad but because every other album is so much better. IMO he should listen to Mothership or Instant Gratification
Am I the only who called 530-RATKING? If you haven't.... DO IT!
Not sure it’ll work for us aussies haha
Johnny, react to On The Run. You’ll enjoy Jon’s vocals!
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
DGD music is very 'busy' and it takes time to get familiar aka 'grow on you' which for myself ALWAYS happens.
Been waiting for a DGD react from yall! Their album Mothership is so goddamn good you should check it out!
Guys please do Dayseeker Neon Grave… Johnny’s gonna love it
Coming soon
Inspire the Liars 10000%
If you want more of Jon Mess fast rap-like screams check out Biblee and Delete the Believer by Secret Band
Reemind me to never check in a hotel run by Tillian
Never been a huge DGD fan but that was pretty good. But new Malevolence is brutal AF!
It’s on its way
@@nathandjohnny loveee it
I know u guys like eidola.. and like parts of DGD.. you need to check out Hail the Sun... their song Domino... honestly their dual guitars are even more crazy then DGD The Drummer is the lead singer.. and they sound like a mix of Mars Volta, DGD and Circa Survive.. if you put those all together you have one of the best bands you have never listened to before. it won't disappoint
Fucking love hail the sun
Have to check out the new one by Dayseeker - Neon grave.
Coming soon
Jon Mess spitting bars. What were you were saying again about “Jon Mess and timing” in your eidola react? Mhm.
Review SECRETS new song!
Why you guys never make reaction to Our Last Night again?
We try to get as many reactions done as possible and sometimes we just need to prioritise.
Would you be considering reacting to TWICE?
If something from DGD hasn’t grabbed you, then you’re just not really listening plain and simple.
Noooo no, no, no, noooooo. Downtown Battle Mountain was not the first album and nooooo, nooo, no, nooooooo. DGD was basically Jonny first album, KURT, then Tillian made them mainstream on a very positive level.

Lol
From all the languagues posible to speak you decided to speak the truth.
