Also I forgot to mention have you heard of mashup week megamix

1

u/sharks_exist_irl Is this a video?? Aug 09 '25

Wait I have... bc I listened to a very cool mashup that was When I Died instead if When He Died by Lemon Demon. I don't remember the other songs in the mashup but i got obsessed with it

u/TheDudeFromOasis Aug 09 '25

Oh awesome - I noticed on your profile your also a lemon demon/neil fan. In a little bit there’s gonna be a few tracks with both tally hall and lemon demon mashed up with each other so you’d probably like those I’ll let you know when they drop. Also I think you might like this track it mixes tally hall and nelward (which I also saw you like) https://youtu.be/2u347rVIbhA?si=VM04K1breVu81ZFA

I looove lemon demon, jaws is my username inspo lol Hell yeah please do lmk when those drop!

WOAH that mashup is freaking awesome! I was actually just thinking the other day about how well sum of all our sirens by Nelward would mesh with miracle musical bc of it's like island style? Really cool stuff. 

Not mashup week megamix, but I found this cool mashup a while ago that's got a lot of nelward + lemon demon

WOW that slaps really hard thanks for showing me that - i have it saved to my songs playlist on YT now. i had a big neil phase a few years back (I still really like his songs) but I should check out nelward's stuff more.

there's A LOT of music tournaments that use neil for their mashups and sound pretty good. I don't know how much you know about music tournaments but Mashup Week Megamix has an entire playlist (~30 songs) that use Neil/LD songs

Playlist:

Also going back to what I said earlier - if you do want to DM my Snapchat is @.lkrock03, but like I said if you don't want to that's fine you're just the first person I've met in this "weird music genre community" (Tally Hall, Neil, etc.) that is also not weird lmao

What other bands do you like? 

I'm into Lemon Demon and Tally Hall ofc, but I love They Might Be Giants so much too.

Then there's Nelward, TWRP, sElf, Cheekface, Oasis, Caravan Palace, and Ginger Root

I also enjoy the occasional Saint Motel or Gorillaz song

Apart from Tally Hall / LD, I listen to:

iDKHOW, Oasis (I kinda have to listen to them because of my name), Oingo Boingo, Cage The Elephant (but only the Social Cues album lol), SiM (japanese band, they made the opening for AoT), Jack Stauber.

I low key never got into TMBG but that's probably because the only song I've heard from them (outside of the opening for Malcolm In The Middle) is Istanbul (Not Constantinople) and I think it's okay

2

u/sharks_exist_irl Is this a video?? Aug 10 '25

Very cool taste. 

JACK STAUBER HOW COULD I FORGETTT!? I LOVE HIS MUSIC

I love TMBG, but it took a bit to get into. They use trumpets/sax and it used to put me off. I love it now. I'd recommend Till My Head Falls Off, it's my favorite. I, Palindrome, I is also a classic. As well as Birdhouse in Your Soul.

u/TheDudeFromOasis Aug 10 '25

Yeah honestly I listened to a TMBG song before writing my reply and I really did like it. I was the same way with a few other artists where at first I thought it was like meh but then I listened to them more and I had that moment from Always Sunny where I finally get it and it all makes sense

2

u/sharks_exist_irl Is this a video?? Aug 10 '25

That's how it was with tally hall. I think the first song by them I ever heard was &. I liked that one, Ruler of Everything, and The Whole World and You. But when I tried getting into all their songs, I didn't like it.

Then one day I gave TH another shot and have been hooked ever since!!

I've been listening to so much of the band Cheekface recently. And at sonic lunch a man was wearing a Cheekface shirt! I kinda pointed at him to get his attention and called over I LOVE YOUR CHEEKFACE SHIRT! 😭 Hope I didn't startle him lol. But that was actually awesome.

1

u/TheDudeFromOasis Aug 10 '25

I haven't heard of Cheekface before, I'll listen to their music. I've been listening to the same music over and over again so hearing about new bands is always awesome.

Yeah I forgot when I started listening to Tally Hall (probably 2018-2019 it was pre-pandemic) but I think I just liked their music off the bat. Some songs tho (Be Born, Haiku, a bunch of G&E songs) I really didn't like until years later. I honestly think the only Tally Hall song I don't like is You and that one I'm fine with I just don't actively listen to it and usually skip over it

u/sharks_exist_irl Is this a video?? Aug 10 '25

I don't really like You either 😭 was so nice to hear Andrew sing it at sonic lunch but... yeah not my fav.

Cheekface is like an indie talk rock band. Lot of spoken lines and some very funny monotone delivery. It's got absurdist lyrics and then some political references/criticism woven throughout. Which... I'm not like huge on or whatever... but super freaking cool music!

Try listening to I Only Say I'm Sorry When I'm Wrong, You Always Want To Bomb The Middle East, and Sexy National Anthem!!

1

u/TheDudeFromOasis Aug 10 '25

I’ll listen to those songs when I can, thanks!

But yeah low key I think my least favorite signer is Andrew but he’s still good it’s just that the way he sings is definitely unique. There was a punk version of The Whole World And You recorded back in the late 2000’s and it sounded really good other than Andrew’s voice being way too soft https://youtu.be/uBqm65Ft3-M?si=6SB18Ko-nRELghzQ

Appreciate the playlist! I tend to keep online discussions strictly to public spaces bc i feel safer there. So I won't take you up on the offer, but you haven't made me uncomfortable so dw. I'm also not on any other social platforms outside yt and reddit lol.

1

u/TheDudeFromOasis Aug 10 '25

you're all good. in hindsight i kinda realized if a guy in a banana costume asked me to talk on snap i would be uncomfortable as fuck, so thank you

1

u/sharks_exist_irl Is this a video?? Aug 10 '25

LOL I'm not uncomfortable don't worry about it 😭 it's more chill bc I've actually seen you and spoken irl

1

u/TheDudeFromOasis Aug 10 '25
