Last chapter is finally out! This is a special one, we hope you enjoy this last song of the album! 💜 Check out the whole album here: lnk.to/TFRPARALLAXYT
PARALLAX album full lore/story theory summary: In Hiding in the Blue, (Chapter 1) the female protagonist with a sword is now floating above the clouds to seek shelter from the mechanical monsters and demons who tried hunting her down in the past. It is revealed that she was a soldier in the rebellion's efforts against Heaven's giant machines that invaded and ravaged her home planet of Arcadia. (The rest of the album is a flashback that starts back when Arcadia was still peaceful.) In Arcadia (Chapter 2), Laura is together with a loved one on her peaceful home planet of Arcadia. This may be the same person she was mourning the death of in Monody. This is a flashback prior to the disaster that is about to occur, ruining the planet with the arrival of an orb in… In Pride and Fear (Chapter 3), the once beautiful and prosperous planet of Arcadia suddenly is met by the arrival of the mysterious orbs. Those controlling the orbs give promises of peace and a bounty of something in exchange for something "owed" (possibly natural resources), but the promise is never kept, as they never "planted or sowed". The orbs also have the ability to instill certain emotions, like pride, fear, and greed into the people of the planet. Eventually, Arcadia will become empty and abandoned, haunted by the souls of those who died from the demons and monsters sent by the antagonist. In Upwind (Chapter 4), a navy is formed to fight back against the orbs by those who are aware of their threat, and Cape Guy (different from Hoodie Man/Chris) is now leaving to enlist. Sword Girl is saying goodbye to him for the last time, since she is not on the deck of the ship. Also, note the definition of “Upwind”, according to Oxford Languages via Google, which is “in the opposite direction to that in which the wind is blowing; against the wind”. In the artwork, Cape Guy is literally moving in the opposite direction to the wind (as evident by the direction his cape is flapping against the clouds), or upwind. The ships are warships since they are equipped with weaponry. In Our Song (Chapter 5), Sword Girl has been waiting a long time for Cape Guy to return from war as the storm grows near, birds start to flee, and winter arrives. The trees start to “turn to stone”, like possibly in Monody and in the other instances that the Storm might have occurred, and she feels herself barely clinging on to life. The village now has advanced technology, maybe given to it by the orbs, with antennae-topped skyscrapers. In Violet Sky (Chapter 6), Sword Girl has a vision of her home with Cape Guy, so she goes back to the holy place where she lived together with Cape Guy, only to find that it has been destroyed by a mechanical demon. The air has turned the color violet, filled with electricity. In Warbringer (Chapter 7), Sword Girl, determined to fight back against the demon, finds a mechanical gorilla suit to climb into (indicated by the ladder in front of it) to use as she decides to wage war against the invaders. In Fire (Chapter 8), Sword Girl uses the mech to fight against the demon as a city is under siege by attacks from the sky. In Love It When You Hurt Me (Chapter 9), as the two mechs are fighting, Sword Girl starts to realize who is in the demon mech: Cape Guy. “I don’t think I’d make it if you ever did desert me” is foreshadowing that he will probably leave her behind in the next chapter. The deeper voice at the start may be from the perspective of a brainwashed Cape Guy or Sword Girl. Anjulie said during the Q&A for this song that it was about surrender. So, Sword Girl may be surrendering in the fight with Cape Guy in this song. Let Love Win (Chapter 10), starts with a symbolic auditory rewind of the entire album with sounds and instruments from each of the songs as TV static is heard. In this chapter, after a long time fighting, both mechs are on the ground, defeated. The demon mech’s eyes are no longer glowing red, indicating that it is dead. Sword Girl tries to reach Cape Guy, and for him to remember who she really was, a loved one, despite the brainwashing/propaganda of the antagonists “TV screens” and the “sad machine” that caused him to destroy their home and attack their home planet. Cape Guy and Sword Girl are standing on top of each of their mechs, as Sword Girl makes a bittersweet plea to him to stay and live with her in peace. She still has “fever dreams”, or visions of her past, as she can’t let go of what happened that made her have to say goodbye to Cape Guy. So, what happens next? We're not yet sure, but TheFatRat has indicated that he is already working on his next album, which might be paired with a comic of some kind. Thanks to Chris, the pixel artist/animator Slynrd, and the featured artists and vocalists (Lindsey, Everen, Cecilia, RIELL, and Anjulie) for making a diverse album full of works of art! Keep up what you're doing, and take care! :) By the way, the story isn't limited to just this album!

(discord.gg/thefatrat, also it's in the description of this video). There's an entire #lore-discussion channel, and there on the pins at the top, there's a google doc lore summary I wrote, based on the ideas that we've been discussing there and the confirmed details. We'd love to have you theorizing with us! - aRJay, a "lore" guy P.S.: Psst, if you actually made it this far, to the very end, then thank you! You’re all legends, and the true Chosen Ones ;)
@@clawedmoss9030 Yes. You can check the Google Doc link at the end to see the full list of songs that each character has shown up in. This is what I wrote for Sword Girl and Cape Guy based on what has been confirmed and also what we're speculating: Cape Guy, appearing in: Arcadia, Upwind, Let Love Win, and in a mech in Violet Sky, Fire, and in Love It When You Hurt Me. He hasn't appeared outside the PARALLAX album, though, that we know of. Sword Girl - (who we used to call “Laura”). appearing in Monody, Stronger, Close To The Sun, the PARALLAX album - Hiding In The Blue, Arcadia, Upwind, Our Song, Violet Sky, Warbringer, in a mech in Fire and in Love It When You Hurt Me, and Let Love Win (so far confirmed); also maybe appearing in The Calling, Jackpot, and Chosen (not confirmed)
@@SeSaGaming actually bro is the realization of an artwork with animation as if it were a world of videogames, although we must admit that the artist knows a lot about creating these animations for the album "Parallax", don't you think?🙂
This was still a romantic and beautiful way to end off the PARALLAX era!!! One of the best tracks to ever be released on The Arcadium 💜💜💜 Genre: Future Bass Score: 100/100
Has the label been discontinued or something? Since the video for this song was published a few months ago, the label hasn't uploaded a single song on RUclips, nor SoundCloud. Also why Arcadium stop uploading songs on Newgrounds?
Exactly, I've been missing the good old weekly Friday uploads, I guess the reason is stated in thefatrat's announcement video but still they haven't been uploading for a whole year now. It's so sad as a grew up with this channel for 3 years and I see so much potential of the Arcadium getting the recognition they deserved but now I guess they just gave up everything, and gave up their audience as well :( really wish they would come back asap

In tfr's announcement video he said 'we'll no longer make weekly uploads' and that's literally it. A whole year has passed and it seems like they gave up on uploading other artists' work. It's so sad to see a channel slowly die like this especially when I grew up with it for years, this channel was filled with so much memories and nostalgia but now it's all the past. Hopefully they'll make their return and resume uploading, even if not weekly
Is there a reason that TFR stopped doing weekly uploads from various artists? I'm just wondering if this channel is going to become a second TFR channel.
This album was planned by TheFatRat in his documentary. For the time being, he won't upload his songs weekly for the reasons might be him being a father of a cute daughter or he is planning to make another song. He uploads his songs every 1-3 months but it does depends on him. For now, we will let him rest and wait for another of his masterpiece soon.
@@bjuganda7758 oh I wasn't talking about TFR, I know he doesn't upload very often, but the Arcadium specifically used to upload songs from other people, and I was wondering if that would ever happen again.
is it just me or is the arcadium kinda.. dead? I remember the arcadium having a weekly upload schedule, but it went from that to maybe one per month to becoming just a reupload channel. I do understand that quality comes over quantity, but a further explanation apart from "we're not making weekly videos anymore" would've been cool.
Ikr I've been missing those weekly uploads, 'we don't do weekly uploads anymore' is just not enough to explain the lack of uploads after an entire year by now. They have built an amazing community for years and suddenly they just abandon everything. Also I have noticed they slowly started to become more commercial and the music lost their original taste. It's so sad to see this channel die like this, hopefully they'll come back with regular uploads asap :(

A beautiful era has come to a close, time to loop all 10 chapters for the rest of eternity. TheFatRat’s music is one of the few that never gets old

In Pride and Fear (Chapter 3), the once beautiful and prosperous planet of Arcadia suddenly is met by the arrival of the mysterious orbs. Those controlling the orbs give promises of peace and a bounty of something in exchange for something "owed" (possibly natural resources), but the promise is never kept, as they never "planted or sowed". The orbs also have the ability to instill certain emotions, like pride, fear, and greed into the people of the planet. Eventually, Arcadia will become empty and abandoned, haunted by the souls of those who died from the demons and monsters sent by the antagonist.
In Upwind (Chapter 4), a navy is formed to fight back against the orbs by those who are aware of their threat, and Cape Guy (different from Hoodie Man/Chris) is now leaving to enlist. Sword Girl is saying goodbye to him for the last time, since she is not on the deck of the ship. Also, note the definition of “Upwind”, according to Oxford Languages via Google, which is “in the opposite direction to that in which the wind is blowing; against the wind”. In the artwork, Cape Guy is literally moving in the opposite direction to the wind (as evident by the direction his cape is flapping against the clouds), or upwind. The ships are warships since they are equipped with weaponry.
In Our Song (Chapter 5), Sword Girl has been waiting a long time for Cape Guy to return from war as the storm grows near, birds start to flee, and winter arrives. The trees start to “turn to stone”, like possibly in Monody and in the other instances that the Storm might have occurred, and she feels herself barely clinging on to life. The village now has advanced technology, maybe given to it by the orbs, with antennae-topped skyscrapers.
In Violet Sky (Chapter 6), Sword Girl has a vision of her home with Cape Guy, so she goes back to the holy place where she lived together with Cape Guy, only to find that it has been destroyed by a mechanical demon. The air has turned the color violet, filled with electricity.

What a beautiful song to cap off a beautiful album, like the end credits to a movie.
