I think the constant change in singers is one of the things that keeps this band fresh, as long as Will Swan and Matt Mingus are in the band I never think they'll do a bad song.
Cloe Jean its a shame that his vocals are usually too sugary and overproduced. while he is a very good voice, i dont think is works on a posthardcore song
There are three different songs in this song and it’s mind blowing. They all have a part and are so talented in their own contributions. This is a band that were put together in a mystic fashion. Damn it’s good.
@@cozytown5540 I dunno. As a music listener, and not a musician, I'd argue that the Mars Volta is a more bit esoteric; and arguably more of a "musician's band" in the same way that Yngwie Malmsteen is a guitarist's guitarist. TL;DR My musician friends are more excited about Mars Volta than DGD.
Everyone is talking about how great Tillian's singing is, or how blessed we are to hear Mess' lyrics, or how much Swan carries this band, but can we please, pretty please, talk about Tim literally slaying the bassline for this song? Hands down one of the best bass parts for a DGD song
uh....what? transpose the bass part for this song and then do the same for "head hunter" and look at the difference. He's alting between partials on this song which is easy, but head hunter has a jazz bass feel running out licks. Harder to play, and hits harder in the feels to me.
welcome aboard everyone :) I found them back in 2008 but stopped listening to them in around 2011 right before Tilian came along. I fell back in love with them in about 2022. It's been an incredible goosebump filled journey that never ends
I feel like Tillian and John achieved heights that very few bands with two singers ever reach... Every time I listen to a DGD song with both of them, I am completely blown away by how complete the sound is.
I saw these guys @ Sokol auditorium in Omaha, NE October 19th, 2009 for the first time live. Me and my buddy Andy were at the Liquor store next door purchasing totally legal Alcohol. And a Majority of the band came in. they Had a killer show. It was a great time.
This song brings me so many memories. I could not listen to it until a few weeks ago. Met the best girl I have ever shared my life with, while getting hooked by this band. We both loved this song.
right there brother, this song brings back the best memories of meeting a girl in Chicago that I'll never forget, this song is part of the sountrack to my life
This dudes are amazing, they consistently produce brilliant art over the years. I feel so grateful for all the hard work and passion they've invested in this project man. Really, think about that for a second. They represent our beloved style of music with remarkable creative integrity and originality. So thank you boys.
Sadly this band may not exist anymore. Jon mess is under doctor orders not to use his voice, they got rid of tilian, and the sad passing of the guitarist. They cancelled their tour and appearances
The harmonization between the singers is the best I've ever heard. The way you have one vocalist carrying a beautiful tune along with the one screaming in the back, there's so much going on here and I love it!
I've got to be the only 30 year old black guy that listens to DGD......not to mention I just found DGD, Johnny, Emarosa, Tillian , etc in the past few months. Now some of my favorite music.
I'll always remember the first time I listened to this song. I was deployed and got the song shipped to me on CD. Loaded it up on my laptop and gave it a listen with my Dre Beats 1.0s. I don't think they will ever produce such a strong opener for a record. In my mind this song has always been one of their best designed works, from the harmonization, contrast between chorus vocals, and flawless use of instruments leaving no gaps in the sound (other than prechorus 2, but it sounds great as is). 2:46 onward always gets me in the feels. It punches and jams in a way that really seems above them, like they made a song better than the music they already make. It's weird and I'm probably the only person that thinks this but it will always be my favorite.
Such a good choice of song for a video. One of my favourites on the album. I wasn't too sure with the last album that Tilian was such a good fit but it seems that they have grown together and i couldn't be happier. Truly a masterpiece
Dance Gavin Dance. Forever one of the best bands in the entire world. If you disagree with me then oh well. These guys can never make a bad song. How many albums? How many lineup changes? This is in my opinion one of their best songs ever.
How does one stop listening to this? ... I got to know these guys last week and now I'm addicted to it! Not to say about the videoclip that has got these amazing pictures, so abstract and colorful. Excellent job, guys!!!
You know when you hear a song for the first time that was released a decade ago and you wonder what your life would have been like now if you’d have known about it back then? Yeah
Credit to the guitar player! As much as I love the clean vocals, the guitar player is the unsung hero of this and many of their other songs. You guys rock!! Love the newest line-up! What a perfect alignment of musical talent!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Call your phone and open up my fate. Cause I know you're so connected. I need poison, mitigate my pain. Feel my toes go golden up in toes in flames, give me false hope in my brain. Tranquilize and modify my brain. Where did I go wrong? There's nothing I can do, the thrill is gone. So I play these nervous songs...pretending I'm not barely hanging on. Medicate, medicate, medicate me all night long. Medicate, medicate, medicate me all night long. God damn...these lyrics hit me so fuckin' hard every time I listen to them. It both resonates with me and shatters me beyond all understanding...
RIP To a legendary Bassist. We will continue to own the night in your honor Tim Freerick
How did he die?
@@crosstolerance They haven't revealed yet, we should just respect their privacy and let them say if they want to
@@crosstolerance who cares just fucking sucks he isnt here anymore :(
@@oshke5225 fentanyl overdose unfortunately
@@dakotafletcher3301 yep, saw as well
I must be lucky to be one of the few people that can actually enjoy all 3 singers without fighting about who's better and what not
Same

love them all

Don't forget Jon mess!
tilian is seriously such a talented singer.
Cloe Jean its a shame that his vocals are usually too sugary and overproduced. while he is a very good voice, i dont think is works on a posthardcore song
@@ymbertbonaventuredickens8878 I think it works absolutely perfectly
@@rorybray7356 totally cool
if it doesnt work how are they doing so well? also works for cte, sws and ptv so.... to name a few there are many more
@@near5839 because sugary, overproduced post-hardcore music with absolutely no bite is having a bit a revival
We need to give a lot more credit to Matt Mingus as a drummer. Man slays that kit every song
Dude is a beast check out his drum cam videos they are awesome
YES!! the double bass pedal bit before the final chorus is what makes me come back to this song. feel that shit in ya sternum
agreed
indeed
He also makes a mean pot brownie.
There are three different songs in this song and it’s mind blowing. They all have a part and are so talented in their own contributions. This is a band that were put together in a mystic fashion. Damn it’s good.
10000%
Doesn't practically every DGD song have a couple of songs contained in them?
If you think this is good, you should listen to the Mars Volta. GDG was obviously extremely inspired by them, and they're even better
@@cozytown5540 I dunno. As a music listener, and not a musician, I'd argue that the Mars Volta is a more bit esoteric; and arguably more of a "musician's band" in the same way that Yngwie Malmsteen is a guitarist's guitarist.

I love how their songs have like three different sections in it ya know
Rite?
More like 6 or something
Oh Youd love my band then lol
Weird/calm verse
Catchy chorus
Boppy/groovy section
They now how to structure a song

RIP Tim. You were an amazing bassist and your talent and work will live on.
WE OWN THE NIGHT IS NOW CERTIFIED GOLD!!!!!!
Very recently discovered this band. Can't believe I've never come across them before. Every single member is immensely talented...
Discovered them in the start of 23, I feel the same way dude
Found them last year, I’m also disappointed that I hadn’t found them sooner. Coming from someone who grew up listening to rock music. 😭

I have listened to this so much that i can hear the bass
Lol. Love this comment.
This is such an underrated comment. ❤
I grew out of many bands but DGD is still tight
ShadowindLUKE unlike your butt
oh shit, ripped him a new one
Tyler Sheets 😂😂😂
agreed man
So true
The vocals compliment each other so good, it's ear candy. I love this song
Dance Gavin Dance is Love, Dance Gavin Dance is Life.
That's a throwback
No shrek is love and shrek is life dance gavin dance is my medicine for the rest of my life
I’m sorry but it’s at 69 likes. You’re welcome
I think this has become my favorite album of 2015 so far!!
Dgd helps me remember who I am when I feel overly influenced by other people. Thank you.
I listen to this band for Jon Mess. What an amazing vocalist my goodness
I saw these guys @ Sokol auditorium in Omaha, NE October 19th, 2009 for the first time live. Me and my buddy Andy were at the Liquor store next door purchasing totally legal Alcohol. And a Majority of the band came in. they Had a killer show. It was a great time.
That transition starting at 2:17 always gives me chills.
Absolutely love the part at 2:45
wilson0213 Finally someone agrees. That is my favorite part of the album.
Hollowsesh😤💖💀💀❤️
best part of the song... using your comment as a repeat button
That double bass inserted perfectly into the beat.
It hits
I feel every single moment of this song. Such a masterpiece.
This song brings me so many memories. I could not listen to it until a few weeks ago. Met the best girl I have ever shared my life with, while getting hooked by this band. We both loved this song.
right there brother, this song brings back the best memories of meeting a girl in Chicago that I'll never forget, this song is part of the sountrack to my life
I thank spotify for including this song on a daily mix
That's exactly how I found Tides of Man- A Faint Illusion.
Same
1:31 I HAVE A HEART OF A COWAAARDDD, HERE IN MY ARMS IS EXACTLY WHERE i want youuuu
fav part lol
DGD is one the greatest bands of the past 2 decades. They’re absolutely brilliant
Happy third bday to this incredible video/song
I love this song wayyyy too much

Really, think about that for a second. They represent our beloved style of music with remarkable creative integrity and originality. So thank you boys.
This song takes me from a beatdown of a day to being so pumped I feel like I can take anything I want. Love Dance Gavin Dance.
Literally me today with this song :)
Yeah same
Well except for the vocalist cause he’s a terrible person
And to think that more than one year ago this song randomly appeared on my spotify, I heard it and instantly fell in love with this band
same here, I literally thought it was a female vocalist until I googled them
Sadly this band may not exist anymore. Jon mess is under doctor orders not to use his voice, they got rid of tilian, and the sad passing of the guitarist. They cancelled their tour and appearances
Dope. Andrew pulls JCs parts perfectly. Plus he’s starting to get Jonny’s hair. He may just be absorbing Jonny’s power

no i strongly agree. this is probably the song that got me hooked
Crazy. First time listening deployed as well...
I just listened to this song for the first time a few hours ago while working, and I was captured.
This song has basically been on repeat since I heard it the first time a week ago. It's fantastic.
theyre PERFECT
Love Dance Gavin Dance
lol john mess driving and screaming is me everyday
Dalton McCabe !
J o n not j o h n
Amen-
This is most likely the best song ever created in history
These guys are such great musicians
This sentence has me confused and feeling weird at the same time.
Corrected it after 6 moths, it's never too late right? lol
TheBlackjack182 ha, I remember this comment. You should have kept the original lol
Yeh 😎
Anthony Fantano is geekin for giving this album a 1/10
I was lucky to listen to this when it came out. What a thrill of a piece!
guitar tone, drums, jon screams, ace engineering on the track. This band is amazing
not just studio magic they had a tight set when I saw them live.
1:08 is my favorite part
A Beautiful Dichotomy between these two voices.
Every musician in this band is a fucking perfectionist at their instruments.
I luv the dynamic dual vocals
First music video in a long time thats not animated. Amazing
LIJ4Productions strawberry swisher 3?
XxctmftwxX i forgot about that one. damn
LIJ4Productions I was thinking the same thing, totally forgot about strawberry swisher

I can’t get enough of this song!
I love this songggggg
My little brother suggested this song to me, I’m glad he did!
This fucking band man. It's so fucking good. What the fuck.
7 cd's and still crushing my bum.
Such a good choice of song for a video. One of my favourites on the album. I wasn't too sure with the last album that Tilian was such a good fit but it seems that they have grown together and i couldn't be happier. Truly a masterpiece

Murdered that bass in cold blood too
I just discovered this band and I can't describe how good they are, like holy shit, how is every song just amazing?
Paying my respects here for now. Rip legend.
I’m just getting into them. A year later and I’m sad I didn’t go see them in concert
Ugh so good!!!!😍
Thanks for Georgia….and I’m so sorry you experienced me at my worst. Keep growing, you’re going places.

One of the few bands i still listen to from my “angsty” teenage years

2:45 to 3:15 is one of my favorote melodies by DGD
Haven't watched this video since it came out. Tilian looks swag as fuck.
I loveeeee thisssss songgggggg. It's the only song I can vibe to thats kinda hard heavy metal and catchy at the same time
okay the bridge on this song is the best thing I have ever heard in my life, Id play that shit on repeat all day if I could!!!
Guitar riff ripped my soul out and started to vibe with it
Just listened to this song for the first time a few weeks ago and I am obsessed
Just perfect.
i love this frigen song!!
Glad they did a vid for this one. Probably my favorite on the album.
This band is literally food for the soul
I still stand by this and RIP Tim 💜
@@Somethincleveriguess do you still
@@LaRicoBumbuja yes ally
Can you imagine Tilian never pursued singing and we never got to hear how beautifully unique it is. Makes ya think mannn
Wow thats a good song I love it
this song is so much fun
I would like to thanks the guy who recommended me this song this is such a masterpiece
Apparently I streamed this over 1000 times this year (spotify 2020 wrap up thing), only discovered them this year.
I dont know why, but i love the screams of this guy❤️

There's nothing I can do, the thrill is gone.
So I play these nervous songs...pretending I'm not barely hanging on.
Medicate, medicate, medicate me all night long.
Medicate, medicate, medicate me all night long.
God damn...these lyrics hit me so fuckin' hard every time I listen to them. It both resonates with me and shatters me beyond all understanding...
The fact that I had to scroll all the way down pat’s mod showcase playlist, to see if there are random videos there says something about me …
this one makes me cry, I love this man's voice
Its been years since ive listened to these guys. So happy I looked them up again. Absolute fire !!!
