What does /co/ think about Mystery Skulls?

>>84785230
It gets too much love and too much hate.

The original music video is underrated.

>>84785230
Terrible music. Terrible videos.

*Bobs my floating head*

First video was better, second song was better.

>>84785547
How so?

>>84785230
I think that the bobbing is really cringey sometimes, it ruins the story the video is trying to tell, but I like the animation and the colours.

DESU when I watched it the first time my friend was embarrassed to show me, he said he liked it but he kept saying "don't mind the head bobbing"

>>84785796
wtf? I wrote DESU not desu???

>>84785815
Word filter f a m

>>84785861
What is this witchcrat
*To be honest* u-u

>>84785230
The first one is honestly still one of my favorite songs and the vid is neat, even if headbobing is it's entire gimmick. I don't even know what the second song or video was about after watching about 6 times.

>>84785230
i don't like it, the music is fine, but the story, visuals and characters are just too much "tumblr". Ya know? trying to make a hidden lore for people too make theories, OTPs over.

Gorillaz for example is just art for the sake of it, with just a little bit of continuity.

also that dog is so self-insert it hurts

>>84785230
Music videos are overrated compared to the music.

>>84785230
We talked enough about the stupid videos back when they were still relevant.

The band is fine, the animator for these videos is a stupid pony-self-insertion asshole.

fuck you guys i like the head bobbing to the bass

;_;

but in all seriousness, I like Ghost and that's about it

Best thing to come out of it was the skeleton husbando.
People put way too much time and thought into dissecting it, and the dog self insert wasn't needed at all.

>>84785230
I hate that the dog is the horsefucker artist's self-insert. Everything else is fine.

>>84785230
song is good
video tries too hard

It's a tragedy that the best music video will never be finished.

I personally prefer their song Money over their other ones.

>>84788821

Pretty sure it was never intended to be finished. But yea, that really should get a proper animation.

What's wrong with the head bobbing?

Good music. Animation was interesting but not deserving the huge crowd over-analyzing it.

Dat Flower Oni Daemon Girl thing though...

the music is mediocre.
the character designs don't seem original enough.
some parts do seem cringey.

>>84785230
The song was okay and iIthought the skull guy was cool, but the shitty DeviantArt OC Scooby gang made me cringe enough that I couldn't sit through the whole video. Every time I saw that stupid fucking dog with spiky red hair and those tiny little glasses that don't seem to actually exist outside of Chinese cartoons I died a little more inside.

I liked it
It was trying to do several things (fit a narrative in the time of a song, match the story-beats to the musics high and low points, homage other cartoons, etc.) and it accomplished most of those pretty well

To nit-pick though, it could have used a few more passes at story-boarding some key moments and maybe framed a few shots in a more interesting way
The song and characters were really good though

>>84788821
>>84791524

Ten billion times better than the "official" videos.

>>84792297
>>84791524
they received a c+d from WB because of the official music video

>>84785230
I have a love/hate relationship with it. my biggest thing is that the guy who made it is a COMPLETE autist

brony, weeb, he completely puts Japan on a pedestal and its kinda pathetic tbf.

also the dog in the videos is supposed to be a sort of furry self-insert, so that's pretty cringey too. but the video itself is neat I guess and the backstory is interesting enough so yep. the skull guy is probably the only part of the videos that I think is super duper cool

>>84785899
>u-u

>>84788821
I think the actual music video is better

There's literally nothing wrong with blackposting. In fact it's great. Now if they REALLY wanted to stop cancer, they would word filter "cuck". Why are the admins such brainless faggots?

>>84793309

They did filter cuck for a while, into "kek". They stopped that for one reason or another, just like filtering SJW into "spooky scary skeletons" for April Fool's.

I had absolutely no idea this music video had any kind of following or that anyone would spend time making theories about it. What the fuck

Oh nice, a Scooby Doo ripoff for the DA crowd.

Music is generic synthpop, but the story is mildly interesting

>>84785230
Animation went too up its own ass about lore and shitty self-inserts. Only the first one was worthwhile. And even that could have done with less artist-fursona thing.

I wanna fuck the skelly.

>>84785230
It's nice. I'm looking forward to more, though the second one was a little crammed.

I think it could do with a webcomic or something to fill out bits of the story, so they don't have to stuff it in to one video.

I don't mind the head bobbing at all, probably because I like Rhythm Heaven so much.

I liked the proto-Tristepin (Wakfu) character.

>>84793309

They need to filter all the fucking buzzwords

>kys
>sjw
>cuck

Hell, might as well filter meme since nobody fucking knows how to use that term anymore.

The blue girl's a cutie.

as for the band/music, it's pretty cool, but the songs that have those cartoons aren't their best songs imo

What ruins these animations for me is that fucking dog. It ruins any value it had
>Tie-dye human hair
>Glasses
>Literal self-insert
It's fucking Deviant Art-tier. I know it's a autistic thing to be bothered by but it's not needed. If the dog lost the human hair alone, it'd make this ten times better.

Too much head-bobbing
Too much story

Just make a damn music video

Speaking of music. Hows my list coming along /co/ I hate to be that guy but I feel like my list of music is hipster tier; but I love it. Adding Mystery Skulls to it now

pandora.com/station/3242288623729125095

Wonder if /mu/ would be triggered by it

The MLP insert dog is weird

If anything, they should have made the characters have a distinct animation instead of uniform bobbing. Ghost guy should be bobbing since his skull has no spinal cord to attach to. Glasses girl could have maybe had a rhythmic flash or something on her glasses. Not-Shaggy could snap his fingers in time with the beat. And Totally-not-a-Naruto-reference could have wagged his tail in time with the song.

Of course, this would mean extensive effort, something flash artists rarely do.

I think I'm tired of hearing about it. It was okay.

The music is ok at best.
The animation is a mixxed bag. The constant head bobbing is pointless and the use of puppets detracts from the quality of the animation, otherwise everything else seems pretty solid.
The art is eh at best. Nothing unique.
The stroy is cringey, unoriginal and unnecessary.
The fandom (if you can call it that) kills brain cells.
The creator lacks style and grace and I bet he has a funny face.

The first one was alright, the second one shouldn't exsist.

>>84796261
It's alright, if a bit too mixed. If you ask me I'd remove Parov Stelar and Caravan Palace, but that's because I'm not too much into electro swing.

Edgy anime pony=based shit with a p crappy dance music choice. Animator actually has a decent grasp on animation too, but he'll just wind up animating autistic shit like this.

I don't get why people these days can't tell the difference between quality and garbage art/animation. All these fucking kids eating up the anime and shit like this and Undertale. There is NO fucking appreciation for anatomy, or experimentalism, or color/shading. Just brigh flashy junk food shit. Which is only gonna produce more and more of it, fuck

>>84796284
Agreed
I think that always hurts how much I can enjoy the vids

>>84785230

i think it a shitty forced meme

>big nosed jew with anime shit played this in my community college class when the teacher left the room

Mediocre music.. Deviantart tier designs with the exception of the skeleton guy. Who looks like he was designed by a dumblr. But the design is pretty neat regardless.

People love Undertale for a lot of reasons, but the graphics aren't usually one of them.
