clipping releasing a retro halloween themed album after their isolation in space themed album? im looking forward to clipping 2020 when they release their phantom of the opera themed album.
I love how the lyrics are easy to understand but still sound great. The cryptic lyrics of some songs can be cool but it's nice that daveed writes lyrics my dumb brain can understand
@@whiteface513abandonedchann8 that’s true and super interesting, but I always find it cooler to imagine a real monster that ripped the walls off of the house
@@alfrebi9639 It's a reference to the opening of the original Halloween movie, and the music is also clearly influenced by John Carpenter's score for that film. The nose is also intended to look like a kitchen knife that's held by Daveed/Michael Myres
this is my first time hearing a clipping song and this sounds insanely good. i love the aesthetic and the way it starts out smooth and slow and then it picks the fuck up in the second chorus.
@@mitchellrudolph8099 I like the song but if someone doesn’t like it doesn’t mean they don’t have taste in music. They just don’t like the song, it’s there opinion
@@lambulance Yeah that tends to be the case with a lot of records for me, lacking the low end. If you have an EQ on your stereo you can jack it up so it sounds closer to the digital tracks.
What if we had a video of this where this all played out within the time that the song played in? No dialogue the whole time, just the song. We start out in a bando in the middle of a field, some woods out front. Everyone is chilling, cooking dope and loading guns. Daveed peels out the window, and bullets come back, a guy drops dead feet from him, and he drops back into cover. The hook could be a time where you see him taking everything in, looking at his dead friend and the holes in the wall. Right after, we cut to them pushing a couch up against the door. Daveed closes his friends eyes and turns off the lights, and grabs some rifles from a closet. Everyone is chilling in the kitchen when a phone on the counter rings, and bullets start ripping through the walls, moonlight showing from outside. We get a slow motion shot of a chandelier falling and shattering, with the lights on it blowing out as it hits the ground. 2-3 guys go down. You see in the next cut, Daveed running out the back door to the kitchen, through some trees. He hits a street where his car is there, and he starts speeding off as the sky starts to get lighter. He is being chased by people in a black beater with ski masks on. He tries to whip the corner too fast, and his whip flips. He’s trapped inside. The guys get out of the car and pour gasoline on his whip and start a fire. We see one masked man walk up through a POV shot through Daveed, as Daveed has his head out of the car window. He points his Glock at him, as the sun shows behind his head, like a halo. The man fires the gun, and the song is over. The End.
midcity: abrasive noise shit CLPPNG: it's pop music but fucked up Splendor and Misery: you're going to die alone in space TEaAtB: oh you're getting murdered, my guy
I am 51 years old and I Love Great Music and this song is Completely Epic,the first time I heard it I was Overwhelmed with memories of my time in Iraq and my Homeboys,I have not stopped hearing this masterpiece in my mind for the entire month since I discovered it,Thank You VERY MUCH David.
Honestly, clipping. is one of the most interesting groups out there. I'd recommend checking out tracks like "Blood of the Fang", "Shooter", "Story 2", and "Inside Out". They have similar criptic raps that tell vivid stories over incredibly unique and immersive instrumentals.
@@tyrannicalthesaurus4672 Hey so, as someone who also never really listens to hip hop but is completely obsessed with Clipping, do you have any other artists to recommend?
@@Decroux3000 it kind of depends on what you like about clipping. In terms of lyricism, Aesop Rock and MF Doom are two great picks. If you like the chaotic, industrial production of clipping, you might like a band like Death Grips, although they are admittedly an aquired taste. If you're okay with listening to more mainstream rap, I'd also reccomend listening to Kendrick Lamar.
Clipping likes to incorporate abrasive sounds into a musically beautiful or atmospherically fitting song, along with Daveed's smooth lyrical rapping. Death Grips is all about fucking with sounds to be abrasive and go against what would be traditionally beautiful. Also, Ride is the visceral, emotional perspective of a deranged and paranoid dude on the streets. Daveed is like the omnipresent narrator in the story.
completely different imo lol clipping is way more lyrical and has way more pure distortion while dg has some distortion, its way less focussed on lyrics and more on the feeling
I wonder how many people got this, but the piano key used during the whole song sounds A LOT like the one from the opening credits of "House (Hausu) - 1977"
this is the first time I've heard this. and it's AMAZING??? it kind of reminds me of the synthwave in stranger things, but meets an early 2000s horror film?? I'm absolutely obsessed with this vibe!
This is so simple, yet powerful. I saw an entire horror movie in my head while listening to this. And I'm a bit mad I won't be able to listen to it for the first time ever again.
This was really cool. At first I thought the thumbnail was the jack-o-lantern from Halloween with the edges clipped off to make it rectangular and that's why it was called Clipping haha. I thought it was going to be a montage of clipped off classic images and nothing was safe from the clipping. Ok, so I grossly overthought this one. Really cool song, though.
