I've been through all the phases in my life.... 80's jams (Was a KISS fan, Motley Crue, etc), to then jumping over to college alt (R.E.M, Hoodoo Gurus, etc) to 90's stuff (Pearl Jam, Nirvana, Punmpkins, etc), to then getting into classic rock (Steely Dan, soooo good) and southern rock in the 2000s with a few exceptions like Wilco, My Morning Jacket, LCD Sound..the Shins... Love me some Rebelution, Widespread Panic and Goose as well..
But Spotify threw DJO at me randomly and I listened to his prior stuff to this new album and was loving what I was hearing... seemed fresh

Now this new album drops and I threw on my headphones, and it was a revelation. Egg is something to behold with some killer headphones on, follow it up with Fly, damn that's goosebump stuff. Love it.

I loved MGMT's first few albums and this is right up there with that stuff...

That's it. We don't need more albums. We are all good with The Crux. This is genius.

if joe or adam is lurking on this sub please please please perform gap tooth smile on your late night performances!!! all the songs on the album are incredible and you really can't go wrong with whatever you choose but gap tooth smile just has something about it the energy would go crazy and i think it could be a big hit if it went to radio and stuff!!! im manifesting it now pls pls pls 🙏

before Potion in the tracklist we have Link and its literally talking the WHOLE TIME about a link breaking out of the chain, which ofc has its own meaning. but after 6-7ish listens to the album i realized that there is a metal clink sound right at the start of Potion. its absolutely meant to be the sound of a chain link falling and hitting the ground. has anyone else noticed this? im still keeping my ear out for more details as i keep listening to the album

Cuz I did

does anybody have any videos from the portland shows??? thank you in advance!!!

i was finally able to get my hands on tickets and i wanted to tell people who would appreciate it :D

me and my dad have recently been putting the finishing touches on my '92 firebird and we finished these lights tonight! i thought this was the coolest thing.

i know every venue is different, but if you’ve gotten barricade at any of the portland shows, how early did you or other people start lining up?

Hey, guys! I am so obsessed with the new album and all that inspired the sound. I have made a Spotify playlist of songs that either explicitly inspired "The Crux" or sounded like they could have.

I would love to hear everyone's thoughts about what you think I should add/take away. Or even just to talk about the songs you guys heard while listening!

https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4qF9f2VwlkdjMEvJTw1Dbw?si=6cc13fc6dce648cb

I’m looking to make a playlist that’s got all the songs from The Crux sandwiched in with other songs that you think Djo was inspired by. If anyone has any suggestions I’d love to hear them!

Just a heads up, massive marathon and road closures Sunday May 4. See more info here: https://www.broadstreetrun.com/

Hey! If you were at the show tonight and have a video of the beginning of basic being basic at the part where he sings “asked for it, here it is” is there any chance you could send it my way? I was the girl he was looking at on the balcony and i would LOVE to have a video of it. Please let me know🙏🙏🙏

no charlie's garden on the setlist.... me and djo r gonna have to have a talk

Hi, TL;DR my chart for Potion is out now! My favorite chart I've done yet, super super fun. Play it! Also made small tweaks to the other 4 charts I've done.

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1K-7rIHPjwaNkyi7jdDSmRURMqv6zR8o3?usp=drive_link

Boring story continued, here's where I'm at and what I want to do moving forward and other things to note:

A. I want to chart every Djo song (the three albums, Keep Your Head Up, and D-Sides) and I WILL do it. As for when? In my own time, they'll get done eventually. Not a professional charter, just a regular person who just loves playing Clone Hero. If you're impatient I do know that someone else out there has charted End Of Beginning. I haven't played it, but I'm sure it's a good chart!

B. Yes, I know there is two specific places people get their Clone Hero/YARG charts from and I will be applying to those places shortly so that these charts will have a further reach. Just takes a bit of time.

C. With the release of Potion here I went back and tweaked all my previous charts, ones saying V1.1 basically just mean I added a comment to them and ones saying V2 mean that I've changed/added notes, maybe added or moved a star power phrase.

D. If I do get accepted to said places where people mostly get their charts (Chorus/RhythmVerse) I will be doing one last sweep to make it so when you're looking at the song in practice mode it'll actually be separated by Verse/Bridge/Chorus, but for now it's not really needed.

If you read this far, thanks and I hope you enjoy the charts.
