Please get nerdy though I’d love for you to break it down and explain it to the class. Haha, I knew I’d get called out for that! Ok, I’ll just mention a few since I’d love your thoughts. And I’m definitely not in a position to teach this “class” of experts anything, I think there are far more talented experts on here than I! But with that, here’s my immediate take: - starting with the backbone, I always go to drums. They’re deep in the mix typical Network style, and relatively [edit- crash heavy- meant to say it was totally in line with his crash playing], but some of the transitions are signature Tre. No question. No one else drop/ skips like that and ties in transitions with this style. I could type a few paragraphs about it, but if you isolated the drums you’d only conclude it’s Tre. The kit and setup is tough to pull out of the mix but stylistically it’s pretty clear. - bass- little less obvious, but not inconsistent with Mike. Interesting rising baseline during the verse too, well worth keying into. Some of the quick transitions/ bridge segments are really locked in with Tre. Definitely solid playing by Mike and even though he doesn’t step out or if featured here, so it’s impossible to say it’s definitely him, the play is consistent with his style and ability. - guitar- totally consistent with Billie. I give a 10/10 for the reappearance of the pick slide multiple times (first song in a while that’s the case, although he did reintroduce some sliding during Longshot). The verse palm muting and intro/ segue open muted strumming was classic Billie (re: Forever Now/ AI live). The overlay flourishes in the chorus were something he really embraced during Longshot. Riffing in chorus with power chord/ isolated bend overlay was dead on Billie. One honest question I have though is how much or whether Jason was in the guitar mix, although at this point he is so damn good and locked in I’m not sure if I could separate them in a mix to be honest - vocals, that one’s easy, there’s no confusion it’s Billie even with some of the gain and delay. I think the delay may be at Ozzy levels here, which works despite how I usually feel. I really am much more into “clean” Billie vocals without distortion, and when the distortion is coupled with the delay he’s been using for a long time it does get a little muddy sometimes. Delay and gain are kind of mutually exclusive in my opinion, and I like when he uses one or the other and not both. But then again he kind of knows what he’s doing and I’m just typing about it! - synth/ mix- I honestly have no idea if it’s Dugan and the rest of the team. That comes during the next 10 listens. Hopefully that makes sense. If not, well, that’s the best I can do when exhausted on a Sunday night! 3 1 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the guy running the channel realized from the initial reactions that this attempt was too obviously fake. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarriedtoMikeDirnt Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 Alright, it seems that there's a theory that TUT is Panicland. Not gonna lie, I wrestled with that for a while now. The biggest red flag for me is that I have no reason to believe that it's not other than the timing of release. The lead singer of Panicland did a pretty good Billie impression, but it was inconsistent (always good in the verses, but shit in the chorus every song without fail). I do hear that in TUT. BUT The chorus of TUT is significantly better than the Panicland stuff. It actually sounds like something Green Day would do. And, on top of that, the lyrics are more in line with an actual work of BJA than the MOOTIK songs. If this is Panicland, then they really stepped up their game. One thing Panicland did that was obviously not Green Day was playing on the "pop" aspect of "pop punk". Their songs sounded like pop rock. In conclusion, TUT is most likely real, but meant to make us confused and questioning. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clockwise Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 It was just a teaser video with new music clips that sounded even more fake imo, also the video description had some typos (and not like classic Billie typos) that were telling.

Had something to do with a countdown in a pitched down tone and then it went full fast paced Green Day/The Network right at the end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of people are beginning to suspect them again. @BraedonHorbacio Please release a better quality version of TUT if this is you guys, it's an amazing song.

MarriedtoMikeDirnt Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 We need to assign some media scouts to stay on top of this with screenshots and screen recordings, etc. I'm missing the important insta posts and stuff because most of the time I'm either busy or no able to watch/view the new stuff when it comes.

But it sounded just like Billie in the end. Although, I have not one idea of who tf that is in the beginning. Doesn't even sound like it could possibly be Mike. Which leads me to my joke theory (I joked about this earlier in the thread) that this is a Panicland/Green Day collab prank. They're fucking with us, but there's real stuff being put out. I still don't think TUT is Panicland, but it's becoming more plausible that the only thing we can trust is the insta posts. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
