I Found Where To Begin the Search for the Paladin Strait Music Video! 

Good sir I would like to congratulate you, I have been recommended like 7 videos on the Digital Remains puzzle in the past five minutes and ALL of them were posted in the last 8 hours. You seem to have successfully kickstarted the hunt.

I have full trust in the smarter fans, I'm just gonna wait for ya'll to find the video

More like paladin Wait

where do i go from here? WHERE DO I GO FROM HERE??!??!!!!

"You'll have to come and find me. FIND ME!"

Omg it would be so funny if we were all waiting here with our arms crossed saying Tyler doesn't know how the calendar works but the video has been already available to us since June 1st😅 like damn, we lost 17 days! And on the 25th they were supposed to drop more songs but we still haven't found the video so the puzzle is not solved and there's no point in getting to the next one. If that in fact is the case, well played, boys. Edit: Wait, have you been recruited by top to give us the clue cause we are so lame and not doing anything or am I delusional?

I'm ready for them to release the music video and then Tyler takes to twitter and drops a "chill out man, we're right on time"

I THINK I KNOW!!! i was scrolling through reddit and found someone questioning if we also saw letters in that one picture of josh at the end of vignette mv.... i can't identify all of the letters yet, but the reason i think there's something hidden there is because not only did tyler tell us right after, in the livestream, something in the lines of "don't pause and try to find the blemish", he also posted the picture on twitter. he's daring us to try to make something of it. I'll leave the comment that inspired me in the replies

Paladin Strait has us in a choke hold😭

Yo, i went on the biolation code, translated the numbers into letters, and it was an anagram of 'find beach' - could thisrelate to drag back

someone might have already mentioned this, but i was just rewatching the I Am Clancy video, and when he's narrating through all music videos, he says (during the Jumpsuit section) "but this Drag Path was different. i saw them, they watched me-the Banditos."

I like the way your brain works dude! I hope if I’m ever in a permanent escape room puzzle, you are on my team. 🤣

Me imagining Tyler’s frustration with us right now😂

I'm gonna do some digging and try and find any clues, we should have a place where everyone can put their findings so that other people can help them out

They do like it when the clique works together to solve things

Wow! I’m impressed. Remember at the end of the “how the codes were solved” video, that discord message said, “I hope they do another one, but make it way harder.” Soooo… we are screwed.

At the end of Vigentte, there are birds chriping just like in paladin strait. Tyler is also dragging a path in the snow during the video. I think we need to find clues in vignette

Just an update: currently there are about 50 of us who've figured out we need to put together pieces from the digital remains booklet, we have a shared canva project & are slowly connecting them all- we could be getting there!

The terms of agreement! In the digital remains there is a ‘terms of agreement’ that was submitted in the beginning from Nico/Blurryface. There is a code that says ‘still alive,’ but if you notice, the word ‘outside’ is shown and there is a space between the former and latter word…

Had anyone looked at the interlude on paladin strait as a spectrograph?

Imagine the Paladin video ends with Blurryface being revealed to be Josh, and the two just smile at the camera, take a bite out of a burrito from Taco Bell, and an ad for Taco Bell plays with Lavish in the background.

Well there goes my productive evening i was planning on...now I'll just be investigating all this stuff

Drag path lyrics seem to describe the vignette music video to a tee

Im just going to throw this out there, even though it may be entirely wrong. During the live stream/video drop, Tyler says before Navigating to "pay attention, we're trying to tell a story here." He also mentions how Navigating is track 9 a few different times, and him and Josh have a brief conversation about "9." Also, I feel it's a little ironic to note this immediately prior to a song literally called Navigating. I know what is explained in this video about "drag path" makes perfect sense, but it's still hard for me to not wonder if Navigating has something to do with any of this. I don't know. I'm fairly new to the whole hidden messages thing with these guys, although I have been a fan for many years, this is the first I have ever really gotten into trying to decode like this. But now I'm really trying because Paladin Strait is my favorite song of Clancy and I'm so excited for the video!

Ig it’s time to solve the level of concern scavenger hunt ig

this video made me go slightly crazy and i went and listened to all the bird noises. in paladin strait there is one bird that is chirping a few times and then takes a break. it has the pattern: 272312312723123 you can see repeating numbers (27)(231)(231)(27)(231)(23 there might be another chirp at the end but at that point the ukulele is too loud to hear anything. in the music video for the craving (single version) there are also birds. the have the pattern: (231)(231) suspiciously the same as in paladin strait? now this might be some big clue or they just used the same bird sounds in both videos. vignette has different birds (i already tried the numbers on the demaorg website and as a url of a youtube video. both sadly lead to nothing)

The lyrics of drag path make me think of vinyl records. If you know anything about vinyl you might know about secret tracks and double grooves. It may be time to start looking at those records harder.

I do think the minute of birds in paladin are super significance of something. They wouldn’t actually include it in the track if it wasn’t

the paladin strait is on the map in the intro to overcompensate. the birds in the bridge of paladin straight sound the same to the birds in the intro of level of concern. the level of concern vid is gone and replaced with a photo with faint drag marks across it. that's all I got.

Although I’m still quite convinced it’s coming June 25th from a bunch of different evidence, this is extremely interesting!

When i think of drag path my immediate thought is the jumpsuit mv. Where tyler is dragged back to dema by Nico!

I just listened to the birds chirping and it sounds like Morse code

4:52 crazy how they can tie things from years ago perfectly into hr storyline, so planned

Time to install reddit, discord and all the socials again to hear the theories and take part in this.

The minute of birds can represent a "minute of silence" for the all banditos/people who lost the "battle" against the bishops. Don't believe me xd

SIR!!!!! WHY IS YOUR BLURRYFACE ALBUM DIFFERENT????? Also, I know you can turn the sleeve around, but the line detailing doesn’t match up how you have it if you turn it. My first thought was “East is up”. HOWEVER… the red circle on the top left has the same line detail as the original black and white circle. AND all the other circles ARE IN THEIR ORIGINAL ORDER!!!!!! I have taken screenshots and compared!!!! I’m losing my mind lol

Drag path as in the Oldies Station music video?

I feel like no one really looked into the Digital Remains the way that they intended. Everyone just thought it was some sort of gift, but as you mention, the timeline makes sense for it to be the answer. If you look towards the end we see Clancy's bag with his map and some rope. The next slide is the Ultimus Capitus one, where we see the Ned horns tied with rope. The following slide (120) is seemingly meaningless. But it cant be. Someone better with computers and imagery, check that out please!

Maybe it's just the light, but every time I look at the placeholder it looks like something is written there in big pink letters. It's just that the writing is almost invisible and it's hard to even understand where to start. I don't know, just something about the lighter parts of the rocks looks weird to me. I'm probably wrong, maybe I just looked at the placeholder TOO MUCH, but maybe we should look at the existing video more

Could the drag path be when Tyler is being dragged away at the end of the Levitate video?

What does the end of this mean? Use that code read first…… is this something that’s always said? Send help! Also in the what we learned from digital remains on the blurry face top right album there is a 25 sticker on it? Are you working with the pilots sir? Lol

Heathens is being slept on. That’s all I can say.

I think we can officially thank this man for getting Paladin Strait out before the 25th 👍

I found the video!!! Livestream today lol

‘Surveillance is outside’ made me think of Stressed “Out” which lead me to the lines “Wish we could turn back time, to the good old days” which make me think of ‘Oldies Station’ which is the track Tyler really likes, right?! In which the camera was being dragged along a path. Might be nothing, but might help.

also, what about that tyler tweet with a bunch of random numbers that is an actual username?

Drag path is referenced in the I AM CLANCY video.

I really am going insane bc of these boys 😭

There has to be some hidden message on Josh's face at the end of Vignette...........

Nico found him and dragged him away

i think im the only person who has really noticed this but the blurryface vinyl in the background is wrong.

Since I’m sure June 25th still has relevance for something, what if that’s some sort of deadline for finding the video?? I hope not😭

In some ARGS they hide code or words in the audio waves or the source code maybe check there during the bird part?

Thank you for putting this out there! I have been on the theory the video is out there for us to find

So I think the image of Josh’s Run posted on the instagram stories is the first clue. Sure it might signal a double album on the 25…. But I could also be a geocaching path that gives us a website url. I’m not sure what app was used or even if it’s possible to find someone’s geocache path. It is a Nike app and beyond that I don’t know.

The Clancy music video playlist was also updated on June 1st 🤔

could the code have something to do with Overcompensate? 120-95

Interesting theory on the digging your heels bit... My mind instead went to the music video for Vignette, as that has Tyler dragging his feet and heels, etching a picture in the snow of Josh Dun. How does that connect to finding the music video for Paladin Strait? Your guess is as good as mine!

Our “Level of Concern” is rising every day now-are we being quarantined? 😅 “They say they sell the information” = digital remains?

Terms of agreement? Is there a hint in some term of agreement? Maybe in the digital remains?

On Josh's forehead at the end of Vignette, I see SSJVEL, SSJUEL, SSJVEEL, or SSJVEET. It could also be SS VEEL (VESSEL).

In the I am Clancy video; he talks about being on a dragged path. And that he has escaped more than once, but that he is always captured. Which also fuels that paladin straight is told from the prospective of captivity. (That he "would" swim that paladin straight. And that Nico is entering the room that he is being held in.) Just thinking out loud here.

The live version of LOC also said they were making Lemonade via Email. And got access to the digital remains via email. Also Lemonade in the backslide mv...

Oh yeah so I (and some other people) may have found prove of more songs. In the digital remains on oldies station. There is a faint words written behind it. We looked really closely and adjusted the brightness on the photo and have found a song name graffiti and we're making out some lyrics. There was some more behind other songs but MUCH harder to make out

Or maybe it could be something where we line up a song with another song? Or a song over another music video? They are clever and we need our neurodivergent friends to pitch in here and think outside the box! Lol

ARE YOU SERIOUS with that backmasking 🤯🤯😭😭 this video has juicy nuggets i swear

his blurryface vinyl is in wrong

EVERYONE I HAVE IDEAS. To support your argument: 1. Why is Clancy the only person who can be controlled by the bishops while he's alive? Because there is one inside of him. The only reason Blurryface can take control is because he's in Tyler's mind. 2. Vessel is sort of canon. Blurryface makes references. Then Trench starts with the heavy lore. SAI is a backslide, when Clancy is captured. As Tyler said, Clancy is the time when they lay everything out in the open. Do you see it? Clancy is fighting Blurryface and winning. Clancy is the clear one, the one who's out in the open. Blurryface is deceptive. As the story progresses, Clancy (and Tyler) learns to express the story (and Tyler to express his mental health/feelings) in a clear way without the mask. Then why the secrecy surrounding Paladin Strait? Because it's the final confrontation with Blurryface. Nico is facing Clancy, and in his last surge, he's making Tyler cryptic and mysterious. What do you all think?

When you said the drag path, it could be linked to the Vignette music video. In it Tyler drags his feet the whole time to form a picture of Josh Dun. Maybe we missed something there. As well as that, it would make more sense in the organisation of the ARG as Vignette is part of the Clancy era, whilst the other suggestions are part of the SAI era or the LOC era.

Omg you are so right my mind is completely blown!!!! I feel so dumb lol

A further point is in the Vignettes video Tyler digs his heals into the snow to make the face of Josh. The meaning of ‘Vignette’ is a small illustration or portrait photograph which fades into its background without a definite border; and also an evocative description.

If you reverse paladin strait, at the beninging it sounds like "use the code" or is it just me who hears it

Hey i just remembered that in the overcompensate video, the lights on the back are winking, maybe we should start to check everything on the background of mv's to find a morse code?

What if the paladin strait mv is the friends we made along the way?

While watching this I realized how similar the album covers are between Vessel and Clancy. Is that something?

Fuhgedaboudit! Leave poor Tyler alone, he's "drowning in logistics." The song and video will be available soon enough.

Or... hear me out... they just release it tomorrow.... on joshs birthday... and the anniversary of the 1st clancy letter....

During the clip in the LOC livestream with the figure in the sunset, the music to "Nico and the Niners" is playing, specifically the background piece before the rap verse (NATN timestamp: 2:22). If we look at 2:22 in the LOC livestream, there is a clip of a jellyfish followed by the vulture sound from levitate and the "East Is up"/SAI/pitchfork logo. Conveniently, this clip is played again in the LOC livestream video around 6:18 and 6:25 which, if you have been following, are numbers that have been appearing over and over. 6/18 is Josh's birthday and the date of the first Clancy letter while 6/25 is a date that has been cryptically appearing repeatedly. Also, in the NATN MV, at 0:48 is a clock which appears to be displaying the time 6:18

In the Vignette video he etched Josh’s face on the surface. In Oldie’s Station Josh is creating his path that leads to a downfall. What is Tyler’s prison? I rack my brain on this all day. Keep the progress coming!

“Etched on the Surface”…wonder if anyone has tried to find any backwards masking on the vinyls for any of the songs you mentioned?

Thank you so much for the kick start, and basically bringing us the paladin strait

Crazy stuff and I enjoy following all the connections and theories. As a very elementary observation on a song I don't hear a lot about, "Redecorate," the lyric video they post is very interesting and it's the last song on SAI. Also, the font/style of the word "redecorate" in the video looks very much like Clancy's collar or rope or whatever that the actual term for that accessory is.

Did you see that the digital remains photos connect like one giant puzzle, if you overlap some photos and connect them

There is so much tiny writing in the lyric insert that came with the album! Plus, I got the red and white album that looks like a ceiling fan, there is something with that image also. I love your theory’s! You and I have a lot of the same ideas! So cool to hear someone else who see things with this perspective! Thank you for sharing your thoughts! 🧡🍀

Can u make a video recapping all the lore in blurry face because it’s supposed to be where the lore started but I don’t see too many connections

@perligo you trying to solve the digital remains puzzle?

Dude this is blowing up in all the TØP FB groups. Good job man!

I hate to be such a buzzkill but I doubt they would spend so much time on a very expensive music video just to hide it somewhere on the internet. My bet is that it's just being delayed to polish it up and it'll air sometime later this month

two things: 1. When the voice says "use that code, read first" can that be reversed to mean anything? 2. What if there is something hidden in their terms of agreement on their website like it says in no chances?

A drag path etched on the surface could be hidden in Vignette. He etched Josh’s face into the ice. Some people have seen letters in his hair.

Dude, you found the puzzle? You are brilliant!

1:08 at the risk of feeling dumb?

WE WANT TO RECRUIT YOU!!

what code 💀

thank you ian gallagher

I couldn't find any hand written lyrics in the digital remains for Paladin. Could mean something. Or I just missed them.

We have to read the digital remains again, we have to go back to the MV live evening.

Etched on the surface: could it be referencing the cover of the album?

The digging in your heels reminds me of the vignette video. Think there’s something there?

Yall losing your minds now😂😂😂
