This gave me vibes of something you'd see on tv as a kid late at night and remember for a while until you eventually find it again as an adult. Pretty awesome job Ruben!
Very interesting vibe I didn't think about that, but this seems accurate. The lack of faces does lend to a bit of a Fever Dream feeling that you only somewhat remember throughout life.
@@rubencatuncut6695 The lack of faces, the distortion effects, and the bright colors really set the tone for something your mind might be struggling to remember, but I really love that feeling when it comes to interpreting music. You did pretty good and the message of a country's loss of self is pretty strong nowadays. Not sure if it was intentional, but I love the detail of the flag being the swirl pattern instead of traditional straight lines, like it is spiraling into something it's not, and at the end the blue pattern is on the bottom, like this is it we have completely lost all values and everything is the wrong way around. Regardless, I now only think of this video whenever I listen to the song, it is a pretty amazing take on it! 💛
@@notboshy0644 The swirl is funny because a lot of the times I'll think of a cool visual and usually messages come to me after. Originally the swirling flag was just "Man I really really don't want to have to draw every stipe of the flag for 24 frames", but in the end the spiral added to the distortion feeling of the whole video. A lot of times there is a message it's just not concrete even as the creator which I think gives a lot to the viewer to think about the themes and come up with more concrete conclusions based on their own personal experiences. The themes I put out are more of a jumping off point that allows me to go wild with the visuals and not be held down by needing to appeal to a specific message.
this is actually so cool and comforting, I just like ur animation style and the way you drew some of the things it’s very creative!!! and I also love the spiral thing in the background and flag
Awesome job Ruben!!! I loved this animation so cool! Really loved all the firearms and all the effects you added!!! Super good job with the movement of the guy drinking as well as the guy saluting! (also really liked the touch of the firework from the self inflicted headshot)
fuckk man this hits so hard seeing the current condition of things in america, left and right i miss when patriotism was a thing and it wasnt either ubernationalism or soy globalism incelcore truly is just the modern equivalent of the german conservative revolution with negative xp being jünger and fried being spengler
@@etasjo Well idk this song never gave me USA vibes, think this dude just wanted to make a video on america and shoehorned this song in because its popular
@@slaytanicc I don't enjoy explaining the meaning behind videos, but the surface level interpretation is "The Love I Lost For America", a play on the lyrics which imply a woman to instead be about a country in decay.
