HIS NAME IS TERRANCE TICH AND IF YOU SAY IT OUT LOUD IT SOUNDS LIKE “TEAR AN’ STITCH” CUZ HE’S OBSESSED WITH TAXIDERMY. HOLY SHIT TEDDY YOURE A GENIUS

First ten seconds, sounds like I’m being cut to peices by a barber then being zipped into a body bag.

As a taxidermist, I can confirm that a large portion of us die from attempting to taxidermy ourselves. 😔🙏

this song sounds like it’d be playing in the background of a disney villain’s reveal

You know human taxidermy had been attempted several times before but turns out human skin is just really hard to preserve

"kicked out of bed by the memory foam" is literally suach a smart line and i am obsessed with it

You could die and come back as someone else If you’re enticed by what I sell Just need to sign and I’ll stuff you well Here at Terry’s When they die they’re dying to be rebuilt With bigger smiles like you wish they did Hindsight is a tricky thing So get creative Lilac eyes that’ll never wilt Can’t say goodbye with no lungs to fill Comfy company, a human quilt Preservation [Pre-Chorus] Sleep on a couch in an empty home Kicked out of bed by the memory foam Reason it out with the heads I’ve sewn My poised and harlequin eternal loves [Chorus] At Terry’s Taxidermy, I’ll leave you neat as a figurine I’ll remedy the death of thee, your memory forever seen I’ll set you free At Terry’s Taxidermy, I’ll leave you neat as a figurine [Verse] I don’t need to let go, so long as I Bring a sweet and special doll to life So I keep this mental compromise Justification But the nights are cold next to empty chests And polished arms in which I’d never rest I come to harm, but they can never fret Isolation And I’ve got a heart pumping messy blood And all these parts I could better cut And quit the farce of these imperfect guts Contemplation [Pre-Chorus] Sleep on a couch in an empty home Kicked out of bed by the memory foam Reason it out with the heads I’ve sewn My poised and harlequin eternal loves [Chorus] At Terry’s Taxidermy, I’ll leave you neat as a figurine I’ll remedy the death of thee, your memory forever seen I’ll set you free [Scene] Speaker: Thank you for joining us today as we celebrate the life of Dr. Tich. As many of you know, Terrence attempted to taxidermy himself. He was a man of perfectionism, not a man of foresight, and consequently he started with his eyes. What followed was less than his best work, leading to today’s service being a closed casket. If you’ll all please join in a prayer-- Oh, Jesus Christ! Someone help me pick him up...

The ending voice line part is so genuinely sickening to visualise, the sound efects of the casket cracking and Terry's body falling out is far too good for my liking and the horrified noises of the funeral goers just ties it together perfectly. Teddy, this song makes me feel violently ill, I love it. I will now go listen to it on repeat for five days, thank you very much

Hey guys (Hopefully hey Teddy too)! Do you notice that loud banging sound from 0:36 to 0:47? It kind of sounds like a hammer hitting metal. Well in Channel 01 Clown, you can hear that noise again- but quieter- from 2:29 to 2:40! This can’t be a coincidence- the sound is exactly the same and they are both 11 seconds long! I haven’t looked into the other songs to find that sound yet but I will later tonight. This might symbolize how while Terry is performing at the same time as the Clown- how the town doesn’t stop moving. How the characters aren’t just Teddy, they’re active and they all flow in time in Splitsville. Please throw in any other thoughts about it!

This song makes me feel like I need a cigarette holder hanging from my mouth in a casino while I sip straight whiskey from a frosty glass and watch people gamble their fortunes away- might just be the move

As a budding taxidermist, I love this song and so many others of yours a lot. I do find it interesting if its plausible to actually preserve yourself. It'd be very difficult! I mostly work on bones, so I cant imagine doing such a thing to yourself. Keep up the amazing work! I do love your music style!

This song gives me the chills in the best way possible.

I have never wanted to commit a crime so bad in my life- All your songs transport me directly into whats happening, its almost haunting the background sounds and the emotion charged in every sentence. I love it.

“Terrance Titch,” like,,, like “tear-and-stitch”?? Brilliant. Lyrical genius

The image of a man trying to taxidermy himself is morbidly rooted in my brain

Introducing terry. The latest Disney villain and his theme song:

Alright here's my take on this song's story (please keep in mind I haven't listen to the rest of the album and just found this song today) 0:01 Terry was a taxidermist who worked on taxidermy the bodies of animals by day but secretly taxidermyed human body during the night. He was successful at his work. He was a perfectionist who had no mercy or remorse for his choices. 2:46 But unfortunately through the years he stops getting clients. He is alone with all the bodies he is left to work on. He begins to slowly loose motivation in his work. 3:17 He begins to question if it's his own fault for his slow downfall. He gets self conscious about himself and becomes depressed. 3:35 At his lowest point he gets his darkest idea. To make himself a perfect piece of artwork of the art he's mastered so well. Taxidermy. 4:12 He begins to taxidermy himself singing along with the song. He taxidermys his eyes first so he will no longer have to look at the body he has been growing to hate. Terry doesn't stop his work until his heart stops beating. 4:44 The taxidermist's funeral is like any others. People crying, a man giving a speech about him and his casket on display. 5:30 The casket breaks opens, traumatizing everyone there as it reveals the body that once was the living taxidermist Terrance Titch.

honestly youre so underrated holy crap i heard this song and i just got that admiration feeling in my heart i love this and all of your music so much

I liked the detail at the end with the pipe organ just playing the same note when he came out of the casket as if whoever was playing it saw him and passed out on the keys

bro, I heard this song LAST NIGHT, and I only heard it because I woke up in the middle of the night, heard it, was like, "Hey this is kinda funky, and I really like Teddy. I'll listen." then I got to the skit at the end, sat up straight, looked it up on youtube and listened to the end over 20 times because I DIDN'T THINK I HEARD IT RIGHT?? Teddy, what the FUCK man. when I tell you I was too scared to fall back asleep, I mean it. The mental image you conjured with the sound of him falling out of the casket because HE WAS STILL ALIVE and the reaction of the crowd to fully registering WHY it was a closed casket absolutely TERRIFIED me. I LOVE this song, keep it UP.

I’ve been listening to your songs for quite awhile and thought you were pretty popular, turns out you’re SUPER underrated-! Your songs need SO MUCH MORE appreciation. This song is by far one of my favorites of yours, along with sex with a ghost and tallboys-

Let me turn subtitles on so I can make out the lyrics KZfaq: [applause] [music] Me: ah yes, thank you KZfaq.

The song "Terry's Taxidermy" by Teddy Hyde revolves around the haunting and gruesome themes of preserving the dead through taxidermy. The lyrics describe the speaker, presumably Terry, as a person who offers to stuff people after they die, promising to keep their memories forever alive. The song seems to suggest that Terry is not entirely right in the head and is driven by a compulsive desire to preserve the dead. The first verse talks about how Terry entices people to sign up for his taxidermy service and how he can make them come back as someone new. He promises to stuff them well and rebuild them with bigger smiles, which could represent how he wants to put a happier and more loving image of the dead person on display. The Lilac eyes that'll never wilt could symbolize how he is trying to deny the fact that the person is dead and is trying to keep them forever alive. The line "Reason it out with the heads I’ve sewn" suggests that he might talk to the preserved heads of the dead for comfort, which shows how he's losing touch with reality. In the chorus, the speaker, presumably Terry again, claims that he'll preserve the person and their memory forever, setting them free from the fear of death. The second verse is more introspective, and Terry seems to be talking about his own pain and loneliness, reflecting on how his need to preserve the dead is a mental compromise. He desires company, but he seems to find it only in the preserved bodies, leading to his isolation. Terry recognizes that he might be far too obsessed with trying to preserve the dead if he talked about his "messy blood" and "imperfect guts." The ending scene describes Terry's funeral service, where he appears to have failed to taxidermy himself optimally. The line "If you’ll all please join in prayer-Oh, Jesus Christ! Someone help me pick him up..." highlights the unsettling nature of the situation and how the practice itself is grisly and goes beyond the boundaries of what's acceptable. The song is a dark and disturbing take on the idea of trying to cheat death and has underlying tones of mental illness and obsession. 5:16

This is one of my favorite songs on the album and.. I didn't realize what Taxidermy meant. Do I slightly regret looking up the definition? Perhaps. On the bright side, it puts the song on a WHOLE different level

This song singlehandedly got me into taxidermy and I cannot explain how grateful I am for that, the funeral scene at the end is just chefs kiss and ugh amazing

You're one of the only artists I listen to tbh, I love this song so much! The instrumentation, the sound effects, your voice... This song is one of my favorites tbh. I'm so glad Sex With A Ghost showed up in my reccomended so I could discover your music. It's so unique and stylized, I'm surprised you aren't more popular tbh

*AGGRESIVLY MKAES OC BASED OFF GFODDAMN TERYRY*

This song inspired me to make a character, so thank you so much for this! :D His name is Wynter, if you're wondering. He's a taxidermist of an alien species who taxidermies his own kind to study their own biology- surprisingly pleasant fellow, if you look past the "work in progress" projects he has splayed out on his desk. He also talks to his projects as he's stitching them- they're good listeners, even if they dont respond, lmao.

i am IN LOVE WITH HOW YOU SING TERRIIIEEEESSS TAXXI - DERMY AAAHHHH💖💖💖💖💖

Big fan of this song, thank you for the real fun fun psychotic sort of sound that fits very well and reall nice instrumentation.

It sounds like the main song to a play about a muderous taxidermist whose a half time serial killer for his other half job as a taxidermist who wants to make the perfect human which he soon realizes is himsef.

This song reminded me of a story I heard about while on a trip to Boston (for anyone curious, just look up “Boston Athenaeum Skin Book” or “James Allen memoir” Long story short: It was about this book that James Allen wrote describing life in prison, and as a dying wish, requested that two copies of the book be bound in leather made from his skin. Somehow it ended up in a library on display, and people were allowed to read it and even borrow it, but it was carefully looked after bc, y’know, human skin From what the tour guide said, this one guy (I don’t remember his name) “borrowed” the book and ended up doing something a bit insane. For a few days, nobody heard from him, so police got a warrant to search his home. What they found was a bloodied mess, and parts of the skin book rebound in the skin of the guy who stole it Now idk about that second part bc 1 it seems absurd and 2 nothing I’ve looked up so far had any mention of it, but whether it’s true or false, this song reminded me of that story

Anyone else notice that when he falls out of the casket everyone else just starts crying harder, with only the pastor being disgusted.

The pure instrumental parts sound like a grand piece where fans of Terrence just walk down with top hats and canes, putting together a complex choreography while walking down a large staircase.

i might, or might not have based my entire university project on this song.

Holy shit this is beautiful. As an aspiring taxidermist and lover of horror, this song is just so amazing, not to mention catchy as hell

Okay so I found out where all the talent is hiding guys-

The way the casket falls open at the end is the best part

i don't know what this genre of music is but i am super digging it! i hope you get more recognition cuz damn your music is super good!! ❤️❤️

yk he did a horrible job when the preacher says "jesus christ"

dunno why but this gives me the magnus archives vibes

Your music is so gorgeous! I can't stop replaying the song and I've filled too many sketchbook pages with doodles of how I imagine Terry

Honestly, I like to think that somehow Terrance Titch lived the process and busted out of the casket

I love how it's- at TeRryYyYyY's taxih-DERMY

You really are a hidden gem. Can't wait for you to get your recognition.

You’re such an underrated artist, I’m sure we all agree but fr this shit is amazing

Your sound and choice of musical instruments and atmosphere are phenomenal. It's not meant to be pretty, but it still is In a messy and chaotic way, which I think is what you were going for. This is gold and I emplore you to keep making spooky music, this shit slaps.

I cannot stress enough about how much I love this

Found your music through TikTok and now I’m absolutely oBSESSED your sound is so good

This song is such a masterpiece holy crap??? How is this underrated the way that the cutting and stitching sounds fit in so well with the music but don’t loop or anything AND THE VOCALS UGH ITS INSANE im obsessed

reminds me of coraline, and that one horror short story about the guy who goes to a bed and breakfast and gets taxidermied.

This is honestly one of my favorite songs by you, I’m not only super into taxidermy but the beat of this is just so good,,, it fuels my edgy needs and the emotion in the chorus and the lyrics agh perfection I literally only found you on Friday and can’t stop listening to your music. Keep it up man 💞💖💖

Yessss I love the vintage styling of this

I can’t believe that I just found this masterpiece now

I just realized that if he was to write a musical is would most likely be the best thing literally ever.

Teddy Hyde and Rio Romeo would make the best music together

I love how this dude made a song about human taxidermy and no one cares because it's freaking awesome.

This has become my new favourite song, possibly ever.. every element just ties in so darn well. I will treasure it like gold... bloody, gory gold.

TIME TO MAKE A CRAZY D&D CHARACTER BASED OFF OF THIS SONG

oh this is a bop

Oh my god this song is amazing everything about it fits just right it’s great

Found one song from a friends post and now I can't stop listening, I love your music so much dude. 👊😔💕

this album is way too underrated for how good it is :(( i rlly hope u get more recognition soon bc ur music fucking slaps

i’m taking media in college next year and already know exactly which song i’m basing my horror project on 😗

Honestly I never thought that I would stumble across you but holy crap I'm so glad I did. You are hella unique and I have never heard music like this before. Your aesthetic is so appealing and I'm kinda sad that not a lot people listen to you. But hey KZfaq's recommending your music now, so hopefully soon you'll get the recognition you deserve.

this song is stuck in my head it so good!

This song is heavily underrated

I found in your works strength to go on. They give me charge! and that ever-present veil of melancholy makes me freak out, aah I want your songs on Instagram Music, that would be amazing!

Oh my god, the key change at "memory foam" has to be the best thing I've heard in FOREVER. That's absolutely delicious 🤤

this is the best song to listen to in a dim room and I love the story omg. (ALSO THE LITTLE GROWLS WHEN HE SINGS "TERRY'S TAXIDERMY" ARE CHEFS KISS)

Just found this masterpiece yesterday. Been listening to it ever since.

This has huge music video potential. I feel like it'd be too gory though.. If anyone wants to film a music video, tag me when you post it so I see it first or something.

BRO WHAT?? THIS IS SO UNDERRATED MORE PEOPLE NEED TO LISTEN TO THIS BEAUTIFUL SONG!!

A perfect song for a necromancer

This whole album is something that is meant to be played on a record. Love the work you’ve made

I'm just now getting into your music but let me just say wow. It's so unique and different. You're amazing

I'm stuck listening on loop, this is amazing.

ok ngl the speaker at the end was frikin terrifying. I was looking at lyrics in the comments and imagining the death and it was,,,,,, scarring not even a pun that shit was scary

When I first heard this song I was not expecting an bop that I’ll be listening to again and again

This song gave me flashbacks to all of those short stories I had to read in high school. Incredible work!

sounds like itd be animated like tim burton. terry sounds like he's tall and lanky and in black & white

Accidentally came across this song last year and have been listening to it since. An EASY favorite ♡♡♡

This is so cool- I love how you wrote an entire character for the song. You're so underrated 💖💖

i just found this song today and i can NOT stop listening to it please keep up the amazing work i am digging this vibe because i am seriously jamming

Who’s gonna kin Terrance Titch?

We need more songs like this

This is my favorite song from the album 🥺

Finally, another artist discovered who write and performed his own songs

my serotonin will be through the roof when you finally get the recognition you deserve. this shit SLAPS.

can confirm that this is indeed a very good song to have on in the background while working on some kind of preservative project-i don't have the resources for actual taxidermy at this particular stage in my life, but i do bone cleaning+wet preservation+this just sets the tone So well when i'm working. i wet preserved a couple frogs last november (they had been pets of mine)+had this on in the background, and you know how sometimes when you're doing something you just get the sense it's going to stay with you forever? yeah

The contrast of the catchy tune and the macabre lyrics is just pure artistry. I don't know how I hadn't found your music earlier

I've been streaming your music all day, and ofc I've heard S3x with a Ghost, but your other music is so underrated- seriously, wow.

the cutting and fabric sounds are like anti-asmr this song slaps so hard

I'm literally surviving on this song for the past four days. and all thanks to my therapist saying need to sto policing in the world of the dead. So i did the exact opposite. I'll rather be with the dead that the living who gaslight and scold you. Rather sit at the graves than sit among the people who judge.

the end makes me feel like I had PTSD and I saw the thing in my dreams over and over again I makes me feel sick and I feel sweaty I cant. but also like appreciate it.

Just recently found your music and I love all the storytelling in it. Completely genius!

A "Cut" above the rest...

The priest/funeral guy: What followed was less than his best work- Terrance: ...and I took that personally.

this is my favorite song of yours along with vanilla curls

This scratches my brain in all the right ways
