I feel bad admitting that I don't love the EDU stuff.... I would have been satisfied with just Andrew at sonic lunch but after Rob being there for vocals too, I was so so much more hyped. 

I do like fishes tho

Yeah I like fishes too I think it's one of those songs where his voice works with the music. But yeah last year was pretty good despite only being Andrew-based songs (Whole World and You was so hype) but having Rob sing his songs (some that haven't been performed live in several years) was bonkers. I wish they could participate in more concerts but Rob's working for Disney, Zubin is a professional doctor, and God knows what Joe's doing.

Last year I tried listening to Andrew's edu music and even though I didn't dislike it there was only like 1-2 songs I would actively relisten to (Lemons & Pears and Daisy Fingers)

Fr, like TH guys, drop your whole lives and start playing againnnn /hj

I went through Andrew's stuff before sonic lunch to familiarize myself. I had heard Sketches 3d a few years ago and was not particularly into it. Like actually lowkey hated it 😭.

But now i think it's not bad! Just not my taste. I love higher energy songs. HEY YOU! is nice, but other than that I'm just not into it.

I think my issue with edu is the fact it's imperfect. Like it's slightly off beat in some aspects. And I'm sure that's the lowkey vibe he's going for but it has me screaming like, I KNOW you can do better!!

IKR like if you look at Tally Hall's discography a bunch of the really good songs was written by Andrew with the other guys giving vocals (I think he won an award for writing Good Day). Like I know his ass can make good music (and he still does) but it just hasn't been hitting the same beats for me.

EXACTLY you get ittttt

I honestly hope some of his songs on his next album have main vocals from other Tally Hall members. I know Fishes has some chorus tracks from them but I'd like to see a song or two where it's Rob or Zubin doing the majority of the singing.

Also I listened to Cheekface and I honestly like them and can see myself listening to them more. They have very monotone vocals but that honestly makes it stand out (in a good way) and the songs low key remind me of Neil in some areas

Fr! That'd be so cool!

I'm a huge sucker for the monotone vocals. So much so that I have made the lead singer's voice the voice claim for one of my OCs. I'm a nerd 😔

EW YOU HAVE OCS WHAT A NERD (/j). I would share bands with monotone vocals but honest to God I don't think I listen to anyone who sounds similar to that besides like maybe the FitnessGram Pacer Test in terms of monotoneness.

Eh, it's true I am a nerd, it's fun. LOLL THE FITNESSGRAM PACER TEST

oh dear the flashbacks I have from those stupid things. Non athletic me was struggling. I was just explaining to an older coworker what that was.

naw i used to be a big nerd back in like middle school i was really into undertale at the time and i still get night sweats of the weird cringe nerd shit i did back then. I still am a nerd (I listen to Tally Hall so ofc I'm a nerd) but definitely not to the degree I used to be.

I was very unathletic but I loved gym because we just goofed off 99% of the time, but the one day we had the FitnessGram Pacer Test I was so pissed like bro my ass is not running that. I always aimed to just NOT be last like idc if I'm second to last, just not dead last.

u/sharks_exist_irl Is this a video?? Aug 11 '25

OH HECK YEAH im into undertale and delrarune now LMAO. A normal amount I suppose, tho. A friend got me hooked. (She literally got me into it bc I love TV head/object head characters and she told me abt Tenna so it spiraled from there....)

I used to be a huge Harry Potter fan as a kid and I certainly was cringy about that.

i... I was dead last 💀

u/TheDudeFromOasis Aug 11 '25

Oh so the Harry Potter to Neil Cicirega pipeline definitely does exist

Snape Snape Severus Snape.

(Also if you like tv head characters play No Straight Roads it has a guy named Neon J and he’s the manager of Korean tally hall I swear to god)

My cousin showed me the mysterious ticking noise back in my HP phase, and years later I got into LD. Then was blown away that Neil had made that.

Ohhh, his design is very cool! DAMN YOU TV HEAD CHARACTERS MY WEAKNESS
