moment of silence for regional at best...which doesn't exist
@user-zq1ef2vs7h5 ай бұрын
This reminds me of R.E.X. Records which DOESN'T EXIST. They held down their artists with an iron boot They were struggling and not paying their artists nor letting them do music elsewhere to stay afloat and pay bills. Fast forward? Many of them (Living Sacrifice, Klay Scott, etc) get their masters back. Those earlier albums exist. Warner/ Fueled By Ramen said 'Make it stop. You did Regional but it doesn't exist. Make them forget and we'll do our part.' However, all I'm currently interested in from Warner Brothers/ Fuel By Ramen? Twenty One Pilots, Seals and Crofts. They're sitting on out of print material DELIBERATELY. SO I DELIBERATELY went to blogspots and downloaded what they refused to make available. When they reissued Seals and Crofts Taking It Easy , and The Longest Road? I BOUGHT IT! THEY'RE saying 'it doesn't exist '? I DOWNLOADED A FLAC VERSION online. The NEWSLETTER VERSION! I PLAY IT OFTEN! But it doesn't exist? Let's all have a moment of silence for our next casualty in the music industry... Fueled By Ramen.

I think the truly frustrating thing is that by not having RAB "released", all the songs that didn't make it to vessel are in this limbo state that makes them hard to access, songs that I think are a significant part of TOP's musical history. Slowtown, forest through ruby, and be cocnerned and clear, have a few standouts that are fan favorite songs. To this day, you still see kitchen sink being recommended to react channels. I understand that maybe RAB was just meant to be something to promote live shows, but I'd love to at least be able to listen to those songs on spotify or through any other official means.

it just doesn’t make sense. why record a whole album with yes, the intent to only use it for merch at shows, but not re-release it just because you recorded an album that was done professionally with some material from the previous record? they’re EXTREMELY WELL AWARE that fans absolutely love RAB, but yet they refuse to do anything with the album being in limbo. the only thing they’ve done with it is play maybe a FEW songs at shows, but that’s it. it just seems like a lot of this stuff wasn’t necessarily their decision, more so FBR, which sucks. i get it, the album isn’t professional, it sounds a little jank in some areas, but to erase it from history doesn’t make sense at all. side note, Josh came in during RAB, not self titled. the original band members having no mention at all either sucks even more because they worked just as hard.
@Ryan-sz5ft2 ай бұрын
at this point its been 13 years since they made that album. why would they do a release for it now? also, i wouldn't say the "original" members worked just as hard. they were part of tyler's live band for maybe a year or year and a half. they didn't record anything on the self-titled album either. the identity of twenty one pilots is tyler and josh, and it makes sense that they want it presented that way

They probably weren’t happy with the product that’s why they don’t want to move forward with those songs, like they were saying they just wanted to perform live so they could get their name out there, which they did. Hence why they were able to sign with fuel by ramen and start recording in a studio. I love Rab but I understand why they wouldn’t see it as a strong record and would want to move away from it, it sucks but most bands hate their early work so it’s understandable.

Many of them (Living Sacrifice, Klay Scott, etc) get their masters back. Those earlier albums exist. Warner/ Fueled By Ramen said 'Make it stop. You did Regional but it doesn't exist. Make them forget and we'll do our part.' However, all I'm currently interested in from Warner Brothers/ Fuel By Ramen? Twenty One Pilots, Seals and Crofts. They're sitting on out of print material DELIBERATELY. SO I DELIBERATELY went to blogspots and downloaded what they refused to make available.

I PLAY IT OFTEN! But it doesn't exist? Let's all have a moment of silence for our next casualty in the music industry... Fueled By Ramen.
Literally
Say what you want but regional at best definitely exists lol
@@michaelgear7642 thats the joke im making 😭
@@user-zq1ef2vs7h it exists in the hearts and minds of all the banditos 🤓 I watched the video too lol
Not bringing over forest, kitchen sink, anathema, etc to vessel is criminal y’all 😭
Esp forest
Kitchen Sink is on Vessel + Bonus Tracks
@@SBJankyyyso is forest
@@ryzigg7187 yep
@@SBJankyyy the bonus tracks arent on streaming services though :(
How do we convince Tyler and Josh to release a remastered version of RAB?
No real I would be obsessed with every song even more if the production was better.
LITERALLY
i hope the band doesn't release something like that. i think it's fine staying as this kind of underground collection of songs that can only be bootlegged from ebay or something. no need to remaster or redo them.
If it's the record company's doing? Time for another label.. You proved yourselves.
@@Lexis1703 My problem is I AM obsessed with every song on RAB and I would KILL for a remastered release!
Kitchen sink and anathema are some of my fav songs shame they havent remastered them
Kitchen Sink is my favorite TOP song
Same here
Yeah legit, no way Tyler chose song like Trees and Truce for Vessel and just forgot about Slowtown, Anathema and Kitchen Sink.
Kitchen Sink is what got me into the band, and years later it still remains one of my favorite songs ever made@@splitzerx570
kitchen sink is on the bonus tracks for vessel
Slowtown and ruby went crazy
i downloaded regional at best from the internet and i have it on spotify. its SO good and i wish it was available for everyone
Where? I need it
my RAB vinyl is my prized posession
@@PsychoticSalamanderdid they have official RAB vinyls or is it a bootleg?
@@splitzerx570 mine is bootleg. But I’m not sure if they actually released any vinyl for RAB
I got my copy from eBay 👌🏼
I'd seriously love to hear the RAB remaster, the album's way too good to be treated as virtually non-existent. Kitchen Sink and Be Concerned are my favourite songs off it. I wish it was available on Spotify too ♥
On Spotify you can listen to it. Some guy uploaded the album in podcast format so it wouldn't get taken down.
@@brodyjthomThanks!! I actually did find that out soon after I posted the comment cause I got curious and snooped around
They're on Deezer
Lovely, Kitchen Sink, Be Concerned and Forest. I love those, and I wish so bad I had a copy of RAB.
The deluxe version of Vessel included the missing RAB songs, including a remake of Lovely. I think it wasn't avaliable in the US though
The Bonus Track Version only has Glowing Eyes, Kitchen Sink, Lovely and Forest
The track "Forest" from Regional At Best is still one my favorite songs from their and definitely one of their most underrated and even tho i understand why the album wasn't officially released, it still makes me sad that a song that great isn't on Spotify or anyother streaming service except for KZhead.
Forest is on Spotify, there's a version of vessel with 4 bonus tracks (Forest, Glowing eyes, kitchen sink and lovely)
*deezer has entered the chat* that is one of the very few places you will find it the whole album
I think the truly frustrating thing is that by not having RAB "released", all the songs that didn't make it to vessel are in this limbo state that makes them hard to access, songs that I think are a significant part of TOP's musical history. Slowtown, forest through ruby, and be cocnerned and clear, have a few standouts that are fan favorite songs. To this day, you still see kitchen sink being recommended to react channels. I understand that maybe RAB was just meant to be something to promote live shows, but I'd love to at least be able to listen to those songs on spotify or through any other official means.
Dunno if people know but Vessels (Bonus Track version) has Glowing Eyes, Forrest, Kitchen Sink, and Lovely
Unfortunately that version is unavailable for most people
@@rightlyexiledI have the CD with bonus tracks
@@rightlyexiledWhy is it unavailable? It's on my CD copy and both streaming services I have used (Amazon Music and YT Music). I didn't even realise they were bonus tracks
So what? Not RAB.
How do I purchase this Bonus track version of the album???
I don’t understand the decision to not release the other Regional At Best songs, mainly Kitchen Sink since it’s the logo of the band
I'm half satisfied with this. Logically it makes sense but what about the other 3/4 of that album that they didn't bring over to vessel? Those still exist. They deserve love too.
Kitchen Sink and Be Concerned. Tear jerkers to this day. A rerelease would be 🔥
i wish there was an official way to listen to the RAB exclusive songs
Pandora. Start the stations by those songs.
RAB is available in Deezer
soundcloud
@@irelandaintirish4305 Nope.
I purchased this album on iTunes YEARS ago, long before they ever blew up. They were just a local Ohio band. I absolutely loved it. But when they took it down, it got taken off my iPod and I was never able to re-download it. I was so devastated. It was one of my favorite albums.
i downloaded it from a website called internet archive, it was sketchy at first, but its legit :)
did the same thing with no phun intended
Stories like this is why I’m such a big supporter of physical media. I think I ended up buying some reproduction copies off of eBay a few years back so I could have it physically. Would love for them to rerelease their self-released albums so I could buy official copies and support them.
Kitchen sink and forest are legitimately the songs that made me fall in love with TØP and want to discover more of them. Such a great album that deserved far more recognition
anathema is still my favourite track by them today, I've always hoped we'd at least get the songs back one day if we don't get a proper release
Regional at Best is so amazing and so deep and soulful! I love that non existent album so much!!
I bought a copy someone made in the Uk. They still sell them on ebay. If I could've bought it legitimately I would've, but it's so good, I had to have it one way or the other.
Regional at best => basically one of the best album of the band ❤
Slowtown was abandoned so that Stressed Out could become their biggest hit, a worthy but bitter sacrifice
I used to fuckin love these guys I completely forgot about that album
I love listening to Tyler speak about things like this. I just also wish he explained their process behind NOT choosing to re-record some songs. I know a couple made it as bonus tracks, but still am curious why they didn't make main album/again curious about the songs simply left behind y'know lol
Had to buy regional at best cd from eBay cus those songs are too good to not be out 😭
I’m so glad they remastered Trees. It’s so much better on Vessel.
glowing eyes is my all time favorite TØP song and i also love all of the songs on RAB
The song “Kitchen Sink” is genuinely one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever heard. Definitely go listen to it ✌️
Regional at best needs to be on Spotify. Surely they can re-release under the label.
I downloaded RAB and added it to my Spotify. Best decision of my life, I wish more people knew about it
Thanks for sharing the video 🤙🤙
They seriously need to remake Clear or at least reference it, love that song and it’s a shame it was never officially released.
Anathema will forever be my number 1 song and i hope they remaster
Bro they could've at least pulled more songs from there or made a deluxe version of Vessel with more songs than just lovely.
Kitchen sink, forest and glowing eyes is also on the deluxe. So not just lovely.
Looking at the comments and it’s crazy seeing people wishing they could listen to Glowing Eyes, Kitchen Sink etc… I forgot they’re considered bonus tracks???😭 I swear every version of Vessel I’ve seen in stores has always had them on it, couldn’t imagine Vessel without them cos they’re my favourite tracks from the album 🥹 Wish they’d print RAB or Self Titled though… Self Titled on vinyl is a need 🥹💖
I’m permanently bewildered by the fact that they decided to leave Kitchen Sink on ROB, It’s a good song and very important for the lore of the band (I mean their logo is pretty much based on the track) 😵💫
I was there the day they released it in New Albany OH. Top is a great band but I miss the days of the trio
I think this wasn't a good decision from them. The clique love RAB and we all want it to be officially release or at least the songs from RAB that aren't in Vessel. It doesn't make sense to just say "the album doesn't exist" because its right there and it's much different from Vessel. And also, what about the people who are fans from the beginning? I bet they want RAB more than the late fans, idk
I remember listening to those songs before RAB was even an album... It is so crazy.
I wish the vessel version of lovely was released
0:49 There's actually a mistake here, the white text are the songs that are in both RAB and Vessel, but Migraine is white when it wasn't listed in RAB
Regional at Best is the reason why i still on Deezer instead of Spotify
Slowtown, ruby, lovely, forest and kitchen sink should’ve made the cut for vessel, is such a shame
Forest, Lovely and Kitchen Sink are in the extended version at least.
@@brandonm8901 but that version isn’t on spotify right? Is it some kind of rare physical cds?
They should make that money and do RAB (Josh and Tyler's Version)
My favorites song from them is Glowing Eyes!
Car radio is the song that got me into them
this just kinda makes me sad bc theres so many songs on rab that i adore that didnt get remastered for vessel or got shoved into bonus content that wouldve been so good. rab is still my favourite album theve ever done
it just doesn’t make sense. why record a whole album with yes, the intent to only use it for merch at shows, but not re-release it just because you recorded an album that was done professionally with some material from the previous record? they’re EXTREMELY WELL AWARE that fans absolutely love RAB, but yet they refuse to do anything with the album being in limbo. the only thing they’ve done with it is play maybe a FEW songs at shows, but that’s it. it just seems like a lot of this stuff wasn’t necessarily their decision, more so FBR, which sucks. i get it, the album isn’t professional, it sounds a little jank in some areas, but to erase it from history doesn’t make sense at all. side note, Josh came in during RAB, not self titled. the original band members having no mention at all either sucks even more because they worked just as hard.
at this point its been 13 years since they made that album. why would they do a release for it now? also, i wouldn't say the "original" members worked just as hard. they were part of tyler's live band for maybe a year or year and a half. they didn't record anything on the self-titled album either. the identity of twenty one pilots is tyler and josh, and it makes sense that they want it presented that way
They probably weren’t happy with the product that’s why they don’t want to move forward with those songs, like they were saying they just wanted to perform live so they could get their name out there, which they did. Hence why they were able to sign with fuel by ramen and start recording in a studio. I love Rab but I understand why they wouldn’t see it as a strong record and would want to move away from it, it sucks but most bands hate their early work so it’s understandable.
@@squippydrawscompletely understandable. and I’m not saying they absolutely have to re-release the album or remake a few songs, i just think having to ignore history like that seems weird. RAB was their claim to fame, why remove it from said claim, y’know?
@@Ryan-sz5ft nah I get that, it makes me sad cuz I love that album 😔 but I’m just glad that they included some of the songs on the box set, that’s one of the main reasons i bought it tbh
the best TOP album
RAB has some of my absolute favorites from this band, Shame it isn't on spotify at all
Love how Tyler and Josh both play make believe that Josh was part of Self titled or even RAB from my understanding but later Josh does say vessel is the first time they officially created music and a recording studio of any kind I think meaning not the ones before. my thoughts are if you look at the writing of the original self titled, it usually says twenty one pilots and not specific people I don’t know if it’s always been like that but I am guessing Josh and Tyler both own the rights to that album now because of that, so therefore, because he owns the rightthat’s why they kind of say this like they both did it I think it’s a legality thing not reality thing
A girl I was crushing on gave me a burned copy of regional at best in 2011. TOP quickly became my favorite band. It was my most played cd in my car until Vessel came out in 2013. I still keep it in my car! I will always think it's their best work. I'm sure they hate that 😂
I've had this forever, never new it was "not released"??!!
i really really need live version of clear
man what i would give for an offical spotify available rab especially for lovely, forest and kitchen sink
We need remasters of Ruby, Lovely and Kitchen Sink 😭
you know vessel has bonus tracks that have those songs remastered right?
@@kevinkujo318 nooooo. Let me go investigate
Nah... Regional at best has some of their best songs and it's a tragedy that they have not re-recorded or remastered that album in its entirety.
Scrolling through these comments and literally every track from the album has someone saying it's their favorite...
lovely is the prettiest song ever i hope tyler ends up singing it to his daughters one day :')
I thought Josh wasn't in the band during self titled ???
He wasn't
I'll give exception for ST BUT! At least issue it as Tyler Joseph or EARLY TWENTY ONE PILOTS
Regional at Best isn't my favorite, but I'm a stickler for preservation. They should probably do some kind of re-release.
i still don't get it because if self-titled was self released/recorded and still put on streaming services, why is RAB any different? it seems like they're actively choosing not to put it on spotify rather than it being the label's fault
that’s what he said in the video. they chose not to make it an official release when asked by FBR because they wanted to make a newer and better album, but just take some of their older songs to recreate for it.
i just wish it was on spotify 😭😭😭
it actually kind of is! someone released it as ‘episodes’ to a series playlist
Man we just knew all of this
Im curious why Tyler is trying to retcon Josh into the band during the self titled release, as if everyone doesnt already know about the original members
Josh and Tyler arent their real names and it’s all apart of a multi decade lore where they now retcon Josh to always be a apart of it because of time travel that will happen in the upcoming years
there weren't really "original members" as many people think. the two guys in the live band before josh were just tyler's live band. they didn't actually record or write any twenty one pilots material. tyler wrote and produced the first two unofficial "albums" by himself. those guys played bass and drums at live shows for maybe a year or year and a half
@@marionunziodibartolomeo yeah, I know. But that doesnt change the fact that Josh wasn't in the band yet at that time
@@Purplepentapus_ fair enough. i think because the identity of the band twenty one pilots is known to everyone as tyler joseph and josh dun, he didn't see a reason to say something like "the two first albums are just my albums"
@@marionunziodibartolomeo but tbf, so was Josh, Josh really didn’t play for Regional at Best. Hell, even songs on trench are made on Daws and not recorded with live drums. For those songs, Josh is just a live drummer, not really having much to do with the songwriting process.
There's a handful of people who have "official" Regional at Best physicals from their live shows before they got signed
I really wished they would have released regional at best because I need slowtown, forest, glowing eyes, kitchen sink, anathema, lovely, ruby, be concerned, and clear released!! Also I thought two and house of gold were also on regional at best???
Sorry tyler, youre wrong. Your self titled album was your first. Also, you need to release a revised and proper RAB. The self titled and RAB are their best albums. No contest
The saddest and most frustrating thing is that fueled bu ramen asked them and they CHOSE not to remaster it. I will never forgive them for this
RAB might technically not “exist” but glowing eyes is real TO ME :’)
No way Tyler and Josh chose songs like Trees and Truce (still very good songs) for Vessel and just forgot about Slowtown, Anathema and Kitchen Sink.
Hey! Trees and Truce are amazing songs!! I think the better way to go would have been to replace The run and go (Imo that one is the worst one in vessel, still good, but not at the level of the others) with kitchen sink (best song from rab)
i think tyler's thought process was probably not "what songs are the best?" but "what songs make sense for this new album (vessel)?"
@@marionunziodibartolomeo True
@@parakeetmusic hey like I said still very good songs and I love both but I’m saying there’s no way he chose those two and not the others I listed
why No comments?
So, my takeaway is that official Regional at Best CDs exist out there
What is the clip of song that's played at the very end?
Maybe it’s a Tyler’s cover of the Summertime Sadness, that he sang on his concert
To me It sounds like a live version of Ride but idk
Found it! Was a live version of ride from 2019. kzhead.info/sun/ZrSwcapslmOel3k/bejne.htmlsi=a6X_kKXcX6iIstrZ
Yeah it’s a version of ride he sang live look up ride live in Cincinnati
thank you!
Hey which song is in the outro?? so pretty
It's Ride but a really slow version of it. If you search it on yt you'll probably find it
@@vacuumpower2595 if you have a link would be much appreciated! I can’t seem to find that part
@jedak6630 kzhead.info/sun/arSElZuenKWvops/bejne.htmlsi=CWwgvk9zduomaP7n I believe it's this one. Had to do some searching haha. It's from a concert so unfortunate there are people screaming sometimes
@@vacuumpower2595 thank you sooo much ♥️ literally what heaven sounds like
@jedak6630 no problem I'm so glad you can enjoy it now! Anything Tyler does is just magic and his falsetto is EVERYTHING
It's their demo.
I just realized there's a bunch red bulls in the back bro likes his red bulls 😂
It's weird that they didn't address any of the songs that DIDN'T make it from RAB to Vessel
WHERE IS THE END FROM😊
The original Trees from RAB cant be beat. I didnt love how they changed its sound
Not a fan of the lowkey Chris and Nick erasure he's doing when talking about self titled
Bass part in Trapdoor is stunning. Also, the backing vocals in Air Catcher are divine.
Me either cause Josh really became a member of the band when they recorded vessel he only did the live version of RAB not the recorded version
Yeah... thats super strange... I wonder why he did that?
He did record drums for a few songs I believe @@arandomperson2068
those two guys actually did not record on any twenty one pilots material. the bass and drums on both the self titled album and rab were programmed and produced by tyler using logic pro, along with the rest of the instrumentation. it was only "the original trio" for maybe a year or year and a half, and only for live shows. the identity of the band twenty one pilots is tyler and josh, so it makes sense why tyler would say that.
Wait, so self titled was Josh and Tyler? Someone told me Josh wasn’t on that album.
They could’ve made RAB an EP
there are 16 songs on RAB. how could it be an EP?
so are we not gonna mention the fact that jar of hearts is not on their???
Then why do i have the album if its not released??????
Yeah. but why did u guys eliminate slowtown and forest??
forest is performed live every now and then. unsure of the last time it was played though. and the meaning of slowtown is the same exact one as stressed out, so it's purpose is served through that
Yeah, i get it but they still great songs
Not a fan of the lowkey Chris and Nick erasure Tyler's doing when talking about self titled
Yeah, as someone who fell of these two when I was in 8th grade, around 8 years ago. It is still pretty weird that they don’t even bring it up
Yeah, I was like "huh?" when tyler said "we" while talking ab self titled cause Josh wasn't involved at all with the making of that album, he did learn some of the songs for them to play live but that's it
why was regional at best my favourite album? lets seee. I-/
I feel like RAB is really Christian coded
Tyler's voice simply speaking just sounds... Bland. And normal. It's weird but it's not lol
i feel like its every single day that people newly realize tyler is embarassed by rab
He for real is
why only one comment?
😢
Why tf tyler didn't remaster foresr but then there he is playing it on the icy tour 🤡
Only bad choice they made 😳😭
would love to have some remastered songs from rab
