“You may have brought a gun, but it’s hatchetfield”. Yep.

[trezalkapeliskova]

Corey's voice deserves more love.

My favorite thing about the axe man is that my autocorrect keeps changing ‘axe’ to ‘ace’ which is actually still accurate
“Oh my god it’s the ace man!!”

[TheCannoliChronicles]

Bryce and Corey are so bad ass. If I could ever pick a theme song walking into a room to in slow motion it would be this. This is so iconic.

"watching nerds run for their lives" has a slightly different meaning now after that npmd trailer

[oneanimatortorulethemall]

This is one of the greatest songs Starkid has ever written.

[Choccoco]

I’m glad this song exists because Corey is such a great singer and I feel like he didn’t shine like he should’ve during Black Friday.

[PolishViking]

The best line "you may have brought a gun... But its hatchetfield"

[DroseraNara]

Hatchet Town's melody plays throughout the bridge, and the lines "Get lost inside those demon eyes" and "Watch those nerds run for their lives' have a nearly identical structure to lines from the title song of NPMD

[luizasabbaga]

I love nightmare time’s creepy tunes. Like the opening number and this. Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE the silliness of like, Jane’s a Car, but this is something else

[meld]

the fact that "youre lost inside those demon eyes" (Axe Man) has the same melody as "everybody cool watch those nerds run for their lives" (Nerdy Prudes Must Die) is GENIUS

[manaroman]

This song keeps getting stuck in my head! Bryce and Corey's voices individually are fantastic (Corey's deeper register on headphones is an amazing experience), but they way they work together in this song is just delightful! I'm so glad to have heard this combo.

[tomboyishruby]

So I’ve been distracted by Bryce, but Corey at “oh the

[lawrencefosterjenkins]

The fact that the “watchin nerds run for their lives” line was ripped note-for-note and almost verbatim from this song in the titular number of NPMD…we love a good callback 🥲

[fae]

even without taking the actual song into account this music video is so beautifully done! I am in love with basically every single thing in it. It's just so freaking amazing

[Angel-klml]

Corey deserves everything. His voice is pure silk and i beg for him to be front and center more often.

[fae]

Bryce and Corey killed it I love this song so damn

[guardianofpeace]

This reminds me so much of the 90s pop. The electro-funk instrument, the personality and slight emotion in the voices and even the SFX being the main percussion reminds of MJ or Spice Girls’ biggest hits, which *I fucking love*

[cyh]

"Watching nerds run for their lives"
this line makes me wonder if they'll do a callback to Abstinence Camp in NPMD, like mentioning the camp and what happened there. But with all the multiple versions of Hachetfield, I can only hope

[Watereashes]

Corey’s verses in this are very Rag’n’bone Man and I love it
