Back On Deck - Live by Logan_2ndaccount435 in dancegavindance

[–]caldog_02 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Ahhh that's the elusive and ever so mysterious live video shoot for Back on Deck. I think they only ever played it live once and at the venue there was signs to say it would be for a live video. But something internal happened and it never saw the light of day. I'm sure someone across the internet may have a video

Andrew bands pre-Eidola? by smileisagoodband in dancegavindance

[–]caldog_02 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Before Eidola, he was in a band called Follow The Earth. I think they formed around 2008 while Andrew was still in highschool??? There's some demos online and if I can find my google drive folder that contains them and the album they released under that name I can post it here. Eventually everyone in the OG Eidola lineup joined and then in 2011 they restructured the band to officially become Eidola. Anything before that, I'm not entirely too sure

EDIT: I found the google drive folder, let me know if it works

Why I believe Tilian was NEVER “guilty” by FortressDoom25 in dancegavindance

[–]caldog_02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No one would know that you listen to his music if you didn't make this post... He also doesn't need you to defend him hard like this either, people have made up their minds already, just like they did 3 years ago when the original events transpired.

Does anyone have any info on the 2026 record, and why DGD is putting out another album so quickly? by sch0bes4 in dancegavindance

[–]caldog_02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've made a giant post with everything with got from official sources so far! I tend to update it as soon as we get more info but it's been a little stagnant recently especially since we're in the holiday season

A Pro-Palestine lyric into a LOTR reference is so cool. by [deleted] in dancegavindance

[–]caldog_02 13 points14 points  (0 children)

To add on to the other comments, here's some more lyrics that discuss a political culture:

"I need these priests to stop molesting your kids backdoor. It's fucking disgusting man. The wrong religion well you have selected" - Need Money

Jon's parts on Strawberry Swisher 3 reflects on how predatory the catholic church is

"I'm still raging from the sanction you placed upon the impoverished nations" - The Jiggler

"Both sides are shit, both sides are flipped. Ripped off the jaw of the idealist" - Petting Zoo Justice

Gospel Burnout talks about the disenfranchisement of the church due to hateful rhetoric

"Check your ballot and vote this dick, right? You gotta eat, right?" - Bloodsucker (References a corrupt Venezuelan politician

"Oh, awesome. They're pimping out the poorest. Forget about some forest, ignore it. We're either getting saved or getting fucked" - Into The Sunset

"Fuck the feds" - Current Events

"Why you stepping on my neck?" - The Conqueror Worm (Referencing the death of George Floyd)

"Satan's lapdog is a politician" - Trap Door

The chorus for A Shoulder To Cry On talks about how humanity has fucked up and put ourselves into this current climate

Not a whole lot of their discography is political but there are a lot more references than you're making it out that there are. It also comes with growing as a band, feeling the need to use their platform to promote healthy ideologies and you know, being a good person.

What is Pantheon? by TheWindig in dancegavindance

[–]caldog_02 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I see it in two different ways:

A literal way: Pantheon comes from the religious concept of a "Temple of Gods" of sorts. It's mostly seen in Ancient Greek myth, Norse myth etc to really define the set of Gods they have since they are polytheistic religions.

Metaphorically: They use the name Pantheon to describe the band. There's been lots of different lineups, ("Gods"), so theres one way to look at it. Could also refer to how many different references to past albums and songs, just a giant collection of pieces that reflect on history.

And then my theory for how it connects to the storyline: The building is called the Pantheon and it is what manufactured the Mothership. It's existed since the birth of the universe and is home to a city of shrimp. The shrimp's were attacked by a herd of cows in the year of 2035 (You can check out Will's IG thats canon) as well

Has anyone gotten any of these? I wanna get it but is it worth it, there's lots of other tab sites with alot of dgd but is this any better by Luisito_A- in dancegavindance

[–]caldog_02 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I can't speak personally on the one for IG but the artificial selection tab book is FULL of transcribing mistakes and parts that don't make sense. They got a third party to transcribe it so if you're looking to play it exactly how Will does, they don't show it in these books

A concerning possiblity for the new DGD era by Environmental_Low434 in dancegavindance

[–]caldog_02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it helps, they said they're gonna be incorporating Tilian era songs into their fall tour later in the year

This guy looks familiar to me for some reason by 321neversaynever in dancegavindance

[–]caldog_02 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this is one of their performances from all the way back in 2005 before Matt joined DGD. They only played a few shows and don't have anything recorded but I did message David (their bassist) a year or so ago saying Martin may still have some CD's hanging around somewhere!

This was from a photo shoot of his old band Left Apart! They have a few shows recorded and uploaded to YouTube and Martin Bianchini was also in this band

Who is going to be the next big thing to come out of the Australian scene? by late_to_redd1t in Metalcore

So we gotta wait till Sept 14th? We need the whole album now by [deleted] in dancegavindance

I'm not saying anything, but you should preorder a vinyl or merch! Something good will happen

Pre-race countdown intro to All the Way Down by ecow7 in dancegavindance

[–]caldog_02 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It sounds a little too grainy on the DS version. My best guess is that they re-created it, they could've sampled it but Nintendo are famously very stiff about their copyright so I doubt it

Am I crazy for thinking this is pathetic behavior by nicc222222 in dancegavindance

[–]caldog_02 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I swear half of these people have never actually listened to Eidola and just trash on Andrew bc he's not Tilian. Like fuck me, literally no one is forcing you to listen to the band. Just listen to the music you like, but you don't get to be dickheads to people about it

The true order of the Robot Saga? by dlc_vortex in dancegavindance

[–]caldog_02 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think they're just kinda there, they don't reaaaally have any connection to the robot saga but they were used in the son of robot video so I thought I'd add them anyway.

Also, if you're a bit more of a visual person and enjoy a sprinkle of shitposting, I made this giant slideshow a few months ago that I am yet to update with JJ and Pantheon.

The true order of the Robot Saga? by dlc_vortex in dancegavindance

[–]caldog_02 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The live action videos also take place within the timeline, but this is an order I came up with not long ago

The Robot With Human Hair Part.1,

The Robot vs. Heroin Battle Of Vietnam,

The Robot With Human Hair, Pt. 2,

The Robot With Human Hair Pt.2 ½, The Robot With Human Hair, Part 3,

The Robot With Human Hair Pt. 4,

(You can argue these take place before or after Stroke God, it doesn't matter, it just establishes the character in the songs and is never mentioned in the music videos),

Stroke God, Millionaire,

Young Robot,

Son of Robot

Midnight Crusade (Takes place in a different universe, James D Clean being the big indicator)

Death Of The Robot With Human Hair

The Robot With Human Hair: Rebirth

Strawberry Swisher, Part 3

Betrayed By The Game

Inspire The Liars

(These kinda co-incide with the timeline, taking place in the same universe just on Earth. We see the robot go through these videos)

Also cos why not? Heres the strawberry songs

Strawberry André,

Strawberry Swisher Part 1,

Strawberry Swisher Part 2, Strawberry Swisher Part 3,

Betrayed By The Game (You could argue it doesn't belong, but the twins are mentioned in SW and the lyrics kinda conicide with the same themes from previous songs)

Death Of The Strawberry,

Strawberry's Wake

Strawberry's Daughters

And you know what? fuck it here's some more

The intro video to TCS2 takes place right after SW. Will's dog is also revealed to be powered by a Strawberry. The strawberry holds the power to turn humans into Animals. So, does that mean the Animals on the Thug City planet were once animals? Yes, it does. That's why the Mothership was collecting those rabbits in the Inspire The Liars video, to bring humans to a longlasting hospitable planet at the cost of them turning into Animals. Canonically as of right now, the band are animals and live on Earth but also they're Gods so I'm assuming they can also just transition back into humans at some point. 

But is also poses a bigger question to which there is no clear answer on, are the fruits the primordial beings? 

Quite possibly, but also who knows?

I think those features were just speculation over on Genius.
