  Thank you everyone for all the nice comments! THIS VIDEO ISN&apos;T MONETIZED, so I would appreciate if you subscribe and check out my NEW SERIES breaking down every single one of their songs!<br><br>EDIT: I had to completely take out about four minutes of explaining the Heavydirtysoul music video :( copyright completely took down the video with it in<br><br>One extra thing I want to mention because I just found out about it so SPOILERS FOR THE VIDEO.<br><br><br>The ending is even more fitting when you look into the history of the Nicolas Bourbaki group in that there were really no permanent members and were constantly in rotation of mathematician replacing them. Even the &quot;leaders&quot; of the Nicolas Bourbaki group where eventually replaced by someone new and the cycle continued as long as the group would stay in existence. There is obviously parallels here to the Clancy&apos;s being a cycle, how Nico was once a Clancy who replaced the Blurryface before him. Just a cool bit of info I thought I would share!

  This is the best, most comprehensive guide to the Blurryface saga that should be required viewing! It was the perfect thing to watch after listening to Breach, I&apos;m honestly still not used to the story being over. I feel like it&apos;s been with me forever. Some of the most compelling, well-thought out lore I&apos;ve witnessed from any artist in a while. Excellent work, may you get many more views!

  I think scaled and icy was also a reflection of the time when it was written and released. That the whole world was forced to stay inside, not have physical contact, to isloate. while the media compensated with colorful shows, entertaining social media posts, and news

  I&apos;m willing to bet Nico wasn&apos;t the past Clancy, but Keons was. That&apos;s why he helped Clancy, ultimately sacrificing himself in order to help break the cycle, because his intentions were also to do better.

  In the past I&apos;ve seen a lot of debate over what is and isn&apos;t religious symbolism in the band&apos;s lyrics. I think the character of the Torchbearer is the perfect example of my philosophy on this. I relate it back to Kitchen Sink &quot;You don&apos;t know what that means, because a kitchen sink to you is not a kitchen sink to me.&quot; The Torchbearer is a symbol of whatever it is that gets you through the dark times, whether that&apos;s God, a loved one, a hobby/passion, or anything else. It&apos;s unique to each person. If a particular lyric resonates with you in a particular way, then that&apos;s what that can mean to YOU. The whole narrative is about overcoming your own struggles, and that can mean something very different to all of us.

  The absolute genius part of all this story isn’t the fact it’s so well thought out or if it has a good moral. But the fact that in a way it’s completely optional you don’t need it to appreciate the greatness of the music but if you choose to invest in the story it doesn’t take over and make the music a backround peice it only elevates it the more you learn about the world these guys created. Such a good run for any band. Makes me look forward to seeing what they’re gonna cook up next

  This is the only recap I&apos;ve seen that really captures the energy of unfolding this story as it went on, while keeping me interested and engaged. The graphics, music choices, pacing, and editing were simply fantastic. If I ever find anyone who wants to understand this story I will absolutely send them here! Fantastic. 👏👏👏👏👏👏
