I love the irony of Rob being the guitar guy but this was all Andrew on guitar. I also cannot believe how stupidly good this song came out. Watching the process was inspirational; not every idea is good, but a great song is made by knowing which ideas to keep and which ones to toss. And of course, the top-tier muscianship of this amazing duo, and their deep friendship are the icing here. Everything about this video was fantastic to watch, making it a great last video of the season. I look forward to season 2 with everything at my core!

I love that y'all talk about "collecting riffs". I've been trying to do something like that for myself. I started trying to do a "musical diary" type thing, so trying to record on my phone recorder app for at least 10 minutes a day.. anything that comes to mind or just messing around. The important thing is to record anything at all! What I've found is sometimes the riffs are similar day to day, and sometimes they morph into something I didn't expect, and that can have a magical feeling. I've been doing it for over a year now (most days, not every day) but when you look back on the recordings and you have a years worth or two, it's like an immediately accessible vault of information from your musical past. Some of it can be "bad", some "good", but when you go back to listen and you're in a different headspace, it's all interesting. a lot of the times, I find the bad stuff sounds the best, or inspires new ideas the most. Thanks y'all for all you do to record this content and show your creative process, it's the best! :)

Fantastic! You've knocked it out of the park again 🥰 Sad this is the last one for now, but I look forward to seeing more in the future! I assume you're gearing up for First of October soon, so it makes sense to take a break now. Looking forward to seeing what y'all make this year 👀

That pre chorus bit is straight from the actual Foos song Rope, don't know if it was actually a subconscious influence but it definitely fits the title

Oh my goodness, this was an absolutely amazing song - without hesitation I'd say it's the best I've heard from you guys. Got so many great Coheed and Cambria vibes among other things - unbelievable work. You've been amazing together throughout this series, but these last couple episodes have shown how much you've grown together as a very real band/compositional force. This song really needs to become big. Like for real.

While you were talking I imagined a community with something like a two sided marketplace designed around collaboration instead of buying and selling. No central hub, everyone can connect and share with each other and credits would be automatically applied by the platform. Thank you for sharing your story ❤

I’m really glad you guys revisited the 100 riff stuff because that video blew my mind. I love the high energy wall of fuzz and crashing cymbals. I’ve loved every episode of this show so far. Every time Rob and Andrew work together makes me really excited to pick up my guitar and I’m just so grateful for it. The energy you guys have working together is really inspiring. Can’t wait for the next season! Hope you guys feel proud of what you’ve been doing, watching the progression of your careers for the past 6 years or so has been an absolute joy
