Thank you to all of the friends and family that helped make this possible. There were a lot of you, and you were all amazing to work with!

[ShoddyDaisy]

Seeing TWRP in a crowd amongst regular people is the same feeling as seeing your custom character in a cutscene

[BerzerkerTank]

Hopefully the Groove Crusaders are able to recover from the grips of the dastardly Haters disguising themselves as a normal cult.

[Ntsaved]

I love that they were willing to end on an ominous sour note like that in the video. It actually kind of makes me want to see a sequel.

[HardCodedGaming]

I really like how when the videos have a story like this, "Starlight Brigade" and "Synthesize Her", TWRP themselves aren't the central characters. These guys make the most uplifting music I listen to, so of course their characters are out to help others in need, not flaunt their egos.

That said, there better be a sequel to this! Fight on, Groove Crusaders!

[Cpipzy]

I kept telling my friends that Have you Heard is actually TWRP's creepiest and most deranged song because they don't listen to the lyrics and y'all proved me RIGHT, thank you

Lyrics -

Have you heard the good news?
You can do as you choose
Just as long as it's what they tell you to do
When you're here, you can leave
Anytime that you please
Only if they allow you
And after all
Why would you ever want to?

Have you heard the good news?
We speak only in truths
Just as long as it's what we choose to believe
When you're here, you can be
Anyone that you please
Only if it's one of us
And after all
Who else would you want to be?

We didn't see the signs
And then they robbed us blind
But our time is coming now
It's time to break, it's time to break
Time to break free

Have you heard the good news?
As a Friend Of The Blues
You don't need anything else ever again
When you're here, you can see
Everything that he sees
Only if you surrender
And after all
Why would you ever not want to?

(Great song and music video once again TWRP!)

[doofs]

I really REALLY love how the brainwashing effects were represented through analog imagery like scanlines and generation loss.
I'm half tempted to try recreating those effects by how juicy they were, it's such sick execution of a vision i haven't really seen done before!!

_also, _ this is such a freaking twrp music video lmao, all of the goofy easter eggs. (also dylan cameo!!! let's go!)

[joshfarhi]

How could people not love TWRP! These guys deserve all the love

[timprimetal]

Beautifully done! I love the ominous bad ending, never thought I'd be creeped out by a TWRP video. Also, love seein Merchlord Dylan in there <3

[coneyisland]

Mission Failed, we'll get 'em next time.

Amazing video, I want more from this cult era

[sideslick]

It was cool to see Merchlord Dylan in the video!

[GoetiaTV]

Followed because of the projects with NSP and interviews on Leighton Night w/ Brian Wecht and I’m really glad I did. ❤ TWRP ❤ is love. ❤TWRP❤ is life.

[stefandjakovic]

The music of TWRP is distilled joy in sonic form. I'm so grateful they exist.

[bee.lzebub]

I love the VHS tape being used as the bondage!

[jaredt.murphy]

As someone who already loves your music, and was raised in a christian cult - these notes resonated powerfully. ROCk ON TWRP!

[NHR_Music]

Just the music video that I needed. So nice to see the EP finally get a proper music video.

[JaphetCHogan]

Well this is so well made!!! The lighting effects are SICK and I absolutely want to know what happens next. I'm fascinated!! Good work!!

Seems the IBS and the Friends of Blue are cahoots, hm? Off to go update my lore board..

[garrettlancaster]

seeing TWRP in the crowd of "regular" people will never not be funny to me.

[NoTheRobot]

SO GREAT! Jack & Arthur you boys killed it with this one. Amazing work all around y’all! 🔥
