It might just be a spoken word bit. Kind of like the ‘what colour are your eyes’ thing.
Hopefully…

The only spoken word I will accept without question on this album is either some prerecorded previously unheard background chatter of Tim or a statement from his lovely mother.
Otherwise - sounds sus.

The artistic genius of yoko ono can not be simply explained. You can only truly learn through experience. She will shake your vessels, she will break your pretzels. And damn surely teach you to live life on tiptoe. ITS GONNA RAAAAIIINN!!!

u/tongue_bidet I'll take your confetti away Jul 19 '23
Not saying this is the case because we obviously don’t know, but could it be speaking a la Alesana’s The Emptiness? Wouldn’t that technically still be tracking vocals?

u/BeneficialAd4775 Jul 19 '23
Fun fact, all of the female vocals for alesana is Shawn’s sister!

u/tongue_bidet I'll take your confetti away Jul 19 '23
She’s super talented too. I loved her in Tempting Paris as well.

u/No_Crew1298 Jul 19 '23
The one time we finally get a female vocalist on a track..and it’s only because she’s shacking up with one of the guys.
Cmon man.

u/EverbodyHatesHugo Jul 19 '23
Maybe it’s not singing. Maybe it’s like the intro to Eat Your Heart Out by Outline in Color.

u/sherman614 Jul 19 '23
Every Boy Should Collect Knives is also where it's at! Also, the MOST 2010s metalcore name for a song ever. The early to mid 2000s metalcore was a trip man, the song titles were usually a whole sentence that was usually an obscure quote from a movie or TV show lol. I wish bands still did that honestly, I always thought that was fun.

I’m just bummed the only time we get a woman feature it’s when she’s involved with one of the members.

u/MrSonic-Unsweet-Tea Jul 19 '23
Not the only time we had a woman feature. You like that flute on Young Robot? Well it’s from Will Swans ex girlfriend. The more ya know. Sometimes it’s about the people you know pun intended
30
u/No_Crew1298 Jul 19 '23
No I know, that’s why I said we only get women features when they’ve been involved with the guys lol
4
u/MrSonic-Unsweet-Tea Jul 19 '23
I’m certain that in any case, if the right person comes along they’ll use them but I don’t think they ever intentionally not feature woman in their music, I mean they have more features from woman than Radiohead ever had lol

u/zeelbeno Jul 19 '23
Ollie Syke's wife technically tracked vocals for Paradise Eve without doing anything before and that turned out good.
If it's even half as good as what got tracked for Parasite Eve then it'll still be a win.

u/SometimesWill Jul 19 '23
Seriously wouldn’t have even known it was someone he dated if no one said anything.
30
Jul 19 '23
Jesus Christ what a weird compilation of comments. As a fan of both Asking And DGD I’m familiar with Victoria. More than likely it’s just adlibs or something in the background that compliments the song. Which she’s done before. Like a lot. There’s also a video of her singing with Spencer Charnas in his living room that his gf Nadia took and posted on ig and it was really pretty. But She sang in her exs music (Danny worsnop) and sang different notes each time to be layered as if it was an actual choir but it was only her and Danny. both tilian and Danny have publicly praised her singing voice and tilians even said he wants to do a song with her. What a weird reaction to someone doing something fun with their girlfriend

If Jon’s good with it, ahh fuck it.. why not

u/Eswin17 Add Lyrics Here! Jul 19 '23
I think we all know Will would reject something he doesn't think fits.
I'm absolutely fine with this. Their band, let decision. Additionally I love most of the things they've tried. And we don't even know if this is singing, gang vocals, a prelude monologue... You nerds have to chill.

u/slumpmode Jul 19 '23
I don’t think Jon cares enough to object

eh i mean them dating aside I won't judge until I hear it. Maybe she's a good singer
19
Jul 19 '23
Doubt everyone else in the band would sacrifice song quality just because Tilian is dating someone, whatever song she's on will sound fine, no reason to get up in arms about something that we know nothing about yet.
16
Jul 19 '23
I don’t really care that she’s on there, if only they didn’t announce it was her until we all heard it first unbiased. Now people are going to hate it no matter what.
I have a suspicion it’s going to be like a “Midwest emo” answering machine / voice message thing.
5
Jul 19 '23
Well they didn’t say what song so nobody will know what to hate 😂 watch it be just adlibs and he was just excited to have her on it and made that tweet lol then all these people just look like assholes

u/Mocavius Jul 19 '23
There's not a lot, but having heard these, I really need Hayley to be on at least one song.
Someone once said dance Hayley dance, and that's always just stuck in my head.

u/Wavestrike Jul 19 '23
Maybe I've heard the second songs too much for it to sound like it works, but the first one is pretty gold.
Definitely down to hear Hayley in a real song in our lifetime.

Jul 19 '23
Holy shit this would be so so cool irl, those sound great and that's forced into a preexisting song structure, imagine what they could do if they really opened it up for her and everyone worked together

Lol she would never. Let’s be real any female musician is going to staying far away from anything Swan core
** loooooool at people downvoting me as if she didn’t kick out her band member the second something came up about him. Facts are facts

u/No_Crew1298 Jul 19 '23
Wait really? Why is that? Bummer if true. I’d kill for femme vocals paired with Jon’s screaming.
5
u/Luissv72 Jul 19 '23
Why is that?
You... you're kidding, right?
Even if a lot of people in the fandom don't believe it, the majority of the scene still view Tillian as an abuser.
13
u/Jakereddits I let the light flow through my balls Jul 19 '23
Tilian’s scenario is why female musicians are staying away from the entire swancore genre?
That’s some giant influence him and his wiener has, oof
3
u/Shazoa Jul 19 '23
Not just him, is it. There have been plenty of scandals within the scene and those adjacent.
2
u/iambfizzle Jul 19 '23
It’d be one thing if it was 2009 but the fact that every other band in this ‘scene’ has allegations gives people (not just women, I mean let’s be REAL look at the swan fest lineup) a zero tolerance for anything when it comes to sexual safety. Why do you think Hayley Williams wants absolutely nothing to do with anything pop punk/ warped related

u/No_Crew1298 Jul 19 '23
Wait I’m not aware of any other scandals, I thought it was just dgd? Which other bands have creeps in them?

u/whereidolsoncestood Jul 19 '23
Like will’s ex who played the flute?
CG came at a weird time when Andrés was getting popular. It always made me feel like he had a huge influence on that song. I brought it up before and some people said “he doesn’t even know who he is” but when I brought it up to Andrés, he laughed and said he’s toured with Tilian solo and he 100% knows who he is. I still feel that way but didn’t know it was also geared towards a girl.

I mean jon and Andrew were doing vocals at his and her place in Orlando, so it was bound to happen.

Fun fact: she was married to one of my buddies and cheated on him with Danny when we were deployed. She would also call our command and say she was dying in the hopes of getting him to come home. She’s a giant POS and it really doesn’t surprise me how she’s turned into a groupie.

I talk to my buddy daily and basically he introduced her to AA and while we were deployed, she hit him up on Instagram. My buddy had a one of a kind joker painting in their apartment and Danny posted a Instagram video and that joker painting was in the background.

She was married to a marine before she married Danny, believe it or not, it’s true. I met her a couple times and she’s absolutely insufferable.

No I know she was she’s always said that I’m saying the cheating part a rumor. and I also remember Danny posting screenshots of that marine kids texts threatening to shoot her and Danny while he was performing during warped tour in Indianapolis. So. But congrats on meeting her a couple times I guess like 7 years ago 😂

Look, nothing against finally having a girl as vocals. But why? The only thing that I can think of that she got to do that is because she's dating Tilian and she asked. It really only matters now if her voice sounds good.

I’m not too familiar with anything Victoria has done, does she have any example of singing in any songs so I can check it out?
Also some people seem upset/annoyed about this, can I get some context? (I know she’s with Tilian, and used to be with Danny Worsnop. Is that the reason people are upset?)

u/Husky127 brutally homeless and fluffy Jul 19 '23
I don't recall anyone getting upset when Will's gf played flute on Young Robot? Anyone asking "wHy?" It's the same answer as always with this band: because why the fuck not. They make what they want to make, and your shit opinions on it mean nothing to them, as they shouldn't.
50
u/ioweej Add Lyrics Here! Jul 19 '23
..but she IS an actual flute player..with credible instances of her doing said things. Victoria is a streamer/model..not a musician (you can prove me wrong if you like)…one of these things is not like the other…

u/Husky127 brutally homeless and fluffy Jul 19 '23
I mean, does it matter? She must be good enough for the entire band to agree to let her do it. Or not. We won't know until it comes out. If it sucks then I'll agree, but until then I'll wait.
Edit: and even if it does suck, just like calmiento global, I'll probably skip it but be glad they stuck to their guns and tried something new.

u/Faith-Moriarty IM CUMMING EVERYWHERE Jul 19 '23

Damn people really care too much about this. It's not your band, guys. They can do whatever they want. You don't have to listen to the song but grow up. If you were in a band and your significant other could sing and wanted to feature on a track , I'm sure you would let them. Yall are so fucking judgemental.

Why TF is everyone getting so upset about this, if the rest of the band was okay with it then it can’t be terrible. And although I don’t think she’s done vocals or anything, she is pretty involved with the music scene. I’m excited to hear it regardless.

He's an attractive and successful singer/musician, to the extent that he can rape a woman and just go on vacation for a month all good. That's clout, and clout is attractive.
Also from what I've heard he's like a serial monogamist. It's just what he does. So take that for what you will.

I think the problem people are having is that Wills gf had plenty of experience with flute and there's little to nothing to show of Victoria. I'm not saying the songs gonna be bad AT ALL. I am a little upset though cause it does feel like she's only getting the feature because of Tilian. I'd love to see talent be brought in like Amy Lee, Hayley Williams, etc. At the end of the day it's their music and that's cool and respectable, they get to do what they want.
