hell I thought it was happening, especially since it was around the same time that Tillian got signed on to Rise. But tons of people thought it was the end of Tillian era and it was Andrew Wells coming in for the rest.
As much as I would love a remastered AS, I would probably still prefer the original in all of it's pooly mixed Tilan-singing-into-an-electric-fan glory. It's probably the most consistent DGD album imo as far as pure songwriting content goes, and having a new mix would probably fuck with me, especially on chaotic songs like Demo Team where the mix actually adds so much more to the song.
A remaster sounds awesome, but WHY Acceptance Speech?????????????? Ever since I heard Tree City Sessions, I've wanted to hear DBM I & II, [Self Titled], and Happiness all re-done with Tillian's vocals.
The mixing and production value of acceptence speech was far lower than any other album and I think they just weren't happy with it. It's kinda been a meme, look up walt jr mixes acceptance speech 😂
probably not. They've expressed that they love having him as part of the band. The rabid fans however, they could drive him away. (Again, probably no tho)
