I've been wanting to get a death star tattoo for sometime now.. I wonder how much of a pain that would be for the artist.. surely a lot?

Deathstar is one of the best album covers ever, don’t fight me on this

 

Liking this single quite a bit on second listen

 

Art ranking:

DBM1

 

regarding the art: the little animals are getting old imo. acceptance, tree city, and instant gratification all feel nearly identical to happiness’ art.

 

I like that they’ve stuck with the same artist and that there’s a common theme between them, but yeah it’s was a bit repetitive for that stretch

 

Agreed, but I’m glad they at least started using more color

 

This but I'd swap Speech and TCS

 

Yeah it was tough for me between them because, like, they're both ripoffs of Happiness but TCS is a ripoff of Acceptance Speech, which itself was a ripoff of Happiness. So just because of that extra degree of ripped-offness I put Speech higher lol

 

why are none of these song titles good tho

 

Honestly I feel like these are some of the best

Gospel Burnout, Midnight Crusade, Story Of My Bros, Count Bassy are some of their top-quality stuff. I don't think they've had super good song titles in recent years except for 'Stroke God, Millionaire' and 'Chocolate Jackalope'

 

Story of My Bros is funny

 

Gospel Burnout is a top tier song title for any genre

 

Idk why but I’ve been listening to this band non-stop the last few days and decided to give their discography a chronological listen. Excited to really give the Tillian albums a fair shake, as I’ve neglected them bc I lost a decent amount of interest in the band for a few years.

 

Dance Gavin Dance - Artificial Selection Limited LP

Alternate cover and new vinyl variant

 

I might like that better tbh

 

I like both

 

I can’t tell if this Tilian/Jon Mess twitter fued is real or not, but it’s hilarious.

 

Pretty sure they’re just mocking Trump haha

 

Yeah they’re just rewriting Trump tweets. It’s hilarious.

 

That cover is bleh but the record is stunning. Hope it goes to stores, the UO by me gets very little traffic.

 

Happiness is such a great fucking album. Still their best by a pretty big margin imo. Carl Barker is my absolute fav DGD song.
