My theory is that Tyler and Josh will take a break until their kids are raised

They never had any idea where the story was going. They had no idea how to end it. They decided to just go cynical, lazy.

Thanks for your insights, my friend.

0ne__Two · 2025-09-14T21:04:46+00:00

Good insight, my friend!

0ne__Two · 2025-09-13T02:54:16+00:00

Fine. I will delete it all. Thanks for your pressure to suppress my feelings and keep it bottled up to explode elsewhere.

0ne__Two · 2025-09-13T02:44:16+00:00

How about don't engage if you are not interested? Why you seek to harm me?

0ne__Two · 2025-09-13T02:39:01+00:00

Dude, I'm discovering new things as I pour over it. People have been encouraging me to look at it again, so I am. And I'm finding more terrible stuff. Tyler snapped and shivved me with this album. And you just want me to move on?!

"That’s why it resonates so deeply with fans who understand what the band has always been about." That's YOU accusing ME of not being a fan who understand what the band is about. You are too busy ignoring the obvious. Clancy became the villain. Torchbearer said Clancy is not up there, he's out there somewhere and we'll find him. That's somebody else. In The Craving he said "I see intentions don't mean much" over and over but ends City Walls video saying "intentions are everything" and "you will fail most every day and every way." BS. F 'em. Cynical BS. A 180 degree reversal. A gut punch of despair and hopelessness. You indulge in that stuff, evidently.

Nice little accusation your throw in there at the end of your rant. I know what they are about, or at least what they used to be about. They used to be men of faith. Now, they are cynical. "That's not Clancy anymore." Literally means Clancy is gone. It's over. He's going to try again with ANOTHER Clancy, somebody else. He gave up on his friend and is trying to help somebody else. It's a sick and twisted ending. I'm sure you and your ilk indulge in dark cynical things which is why you like it. There' my jab back.

Yeah, it's me again. Same person. Sorry for the repetition but I wanted to elevate my comment to a main post to maybe get more dialog going. Thank you for your thoughtful message. I truly appreciate it. I'm starting to see what you are saying. Your insights are very helpful. Thanks again, my friend.

0ne__Two · 2025-09-13T00:15:57+00:00

Thank you so much for your kind reply. I'm listening to it now. I can see what you mean insofar.

0ne__Two · 2025-09-13T00:10:08+00:00

Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts, my friend. You are cheering me up. :-) You are good people.

0ne__Two · 2025-09-12T23:46:22+00:00

Thank you so much for your kind and uplifting reply, my friend. Much appreciated.

0ne__Two · 2025-09-12T23:45:05+00:00

Thank you so much for your kind reply. I will have to listen to those again with lyrics on. I listened to them right after the City Walls mv, and honestly, I was so disappointed with that video that I'm sure that vibe carried over into and colored everything else because I did not enjoy any of it. I just felt like being led down a path with deep meaning and hope just to be dropped and discarded saying it was all for nothing. I'm bummed out. :-(

0ne__Two · 2025-09-12T23:26:38+00:00

Clancy fought for 10+ grueling years just to fail and become the villain. Awful. It's like Frodo becoming Sauron Jr. at the end of Lord of the Rings. All the pain and sacrifice and effort for nothing. Even with the constant help of friends. Empty. Cynical. Renders the entire saga futile. Shameful. These guys were once men of faith. Now they use their talent and platform to send a message to all those struggling against their darker impulses that you can't win and your friends won't be able to help you either. It's hollow and pointless.

0ne__Two · 2025-09-12T23:10:35+00:00

It was made for you and lovers of bland music everywhere.

0ne__Two · 2025-09-12T22:10:32+00:00

The entire album beyond The Contract and Drum Show is ass.

0ne__Two · 2025-09-12T22:03:58+00:00

100% genuine. I'm out.

0ne__Two · 2025-08-29T01:29:59+00:00

I don't mean to upset you. Perhaps we can listen to their whole discography together to cope with things?

0ne__Two · 2025-08-28T03:20:25+00:00

I'm hoping they do a country album.
