I remember vividly when the TH ARG started and no one realized it had started. It wasn't until multiple days of random shit happening that we all realized it was real.

Thing is, I wouldn't think they'd do this sort of approach two albums in a row. But what do I know?

I'm inclined to agree. But. The whole world is online right now. It makes sense as the best way to reach their audience and connect with their fans. All the likes on Twitter. Then IG. Reddit. Clyp. Now YT. Something -- though I don't know what and hesitate to say it -- is taking shape into this mystery of mysteries...

according to “Day-Electronic” the title of the youtube video “matches the ID of the clyp file using simple alpha-numeric decryption” not quite sure what this means but seems something is happening.
no information at this moment in time

A=1, B=2, C=3, etc. and vice-versa. Obvs my excitement got the better of me when I realized that the Clyp id and YT video were cross-referencing each other... :wink:

Looks like it's a portion of a larger image. On the right you can make out what appears to be a woman in her 60's based on the hair.

I stg if this is real I'm going to shit myself. Also if it's real I was here. If it isn't I was here. But I'm inclined to think this is all real.

1. They start liking tweets around the same time the channel was created. Sparks of activity.
2. The "clap" on Instagram people were shitting themselves about.
3. Now this. I don't know, this just feels real. Not like the others. I really want to find out what's going on.

Reverse image searching the picture on the youtube video comes up with nothing. I think the only thing we have to go off of is the cipher on the clyp file.

Unless I'm missing something here, isn't Catherine Fell an anagram of Hell Interface?

Yes, yes it is.

Also, can anyone find any significance to "eammmlzr" Its at the end of the clyp link. Does clyp auto generate extensions or was this intentional.

Clyp automatically generates links.

I can't figure out what the last number sequence is. If I apply the same decryption technique that I used for the previous sequence, I get 818x37219x749 that equals (get ready for it) 2.28034e10, which is a mathematical result that employs an e, or Euler's number.

I am not a mathematician, but I know the brothers are fond of using mathematical sequences and theory in their music. The only thing I can derive from this is the possibility of 22/8 -- which appears in the artwork of TH. And which is, coincidentally, only two days away. As I said a few days ago, Opothecary, if you're still out there, please, we'd love to hear your theories.

As for the image on the video, I don't know why I say this, but it looks like Brighton Pier. I'm probably wrong, but that was my first thought.

The first Record Store Day drop is August 29th. Maybe August 22nd will be an announcement for Record Store Day?

H18x37u9x74I

18x37 = 666
9x74 = 666

H(666)u(666)I?

H for Hell and I for Interface? What would the lowercase u stand for?

I'm glad that the plot is thickening. I had some good vibes from those likes. And I was predicting that they may have something to do with 8/22 and Record Store Day.

Sadly, I am no mathematician or critical thinker. I'll leave you gents to it. Well done ;)
