The line "Don't trust a song that's flawless" makes a lot more sense. We can say those new happy, more commercial sounding songs from Scaled and Icy are "flawless" and we shouldn't trust them.

Another thing is that "Clancy is dead" means much more than simply that our messenger is dead since Clancy represents the logical side of Tyler's brain, it could be seen as Tyler finally snapping after all the back and forth, and if we are to speculate, it can also be seen as Tyler breaking from his regular everyday routine (being taken from and to DEMA), which fits with the song.

@@asuscommenous9126 The way Tyler has been able to make connections to his older songs and create a plausible metaphor to mental illness is incredible. The meaning each word has to him shows. We connect to his music not because of the code cracking or the cryptic messages, but because we understand that behind all that there's a person who understands pain and constantly fights against it. Creating DEMA and the bishops and the Banditos (and everything in between) is Tyler's way of turning all of his production into something visual. Connect the dots so that more people might be able to finally understand the struggles people with a mental illness have. It's okay not to like their music, but there's no denying that what they've created is beyond anything most artists out there have been putting out.

its very interesting how trench's style invokes a sense of home, of belonging, of welcoming, and while the SAI stuff is meant to look appealing, it absolutely turns me away from it. i look at the colors and fonts, and it immediately gives me bad vibes. vibes of fake happiness, of this weird uncomfortableness. ive always thought of it as feeling "orange" but that doesnt make lots of sense to most. its like,,,, a feeling where the sound of peoples voices and the feeling of literally anything touching me makes me so violently uncomfortable, and then i cant do anythjng about it. its just there. it doesnt go away. i cant really put it into words, its kind of complicated, but thats how SAI feels

MCR was the first band to do this. The similarities are striking.

That is a key to understand the true meaning of SAI. I don't want to sound rude but there's a lot more behind this album, it is Propaganda. TOP are always TOP and in my opinion in this album they've reached a new level of "hiding the message behind the words". I think that knowing a little about the lore (I recommend Wise Bear's video about it, short but straight to the point) and paying attention to the detail of the videos they spread a big message, a painful description of our society but it's the truth. They're sad, theyre cold, they're distant. All these things represents they feeling about being sell as a product, not as individuals. Another key point but in this case is less about them, it's a symbol of capitalism.

I'm so happy to see that you're back here ^^ I really liked what you did with Trench, and your production value is underrated af ! This video... pure gold, and i'll be happy to follow you podcast, tbh Thank you, really

I know a lot of the clique doesn’t like the new style of the album bc it’s so different from the past (of course there are many that do like it, and I’m one of them that actually like the new design and theme of the new album) but what if that’s the goal, it’s supposed to make us feel uncomfortable because it’s something foreign, what if this new era has to feel foreign and not known to us because it’s warning us something big is going to happen. (I know this is so far in the future thinking) but what if the next album after SAI is going to call back to this current album and tell us to stop being hypnotized by the propaganda shown in SAI.
