the pale glow from your laptop illuminated your features as you stared at the assignment you have been trying to complete for the past hour. rubbing your temple, you sigh and close your eyes before laying your head down on the desk.
right before a light slumber could take over your senses, the vibrating sound coming from your phone chimed from besides your head. you rolled your eyes, fighting the urge to let the message sit in the notification center for a bit longer.
something in you told you to flip over the phone and at least see who texted you. listening to that gut feeling, you turned your head to the side and lazily held the screen up. your eyes widened as your gaze scanned over the unsaved number you remembered by heart.
sitting up straight, you rolled your tongue against your bottom lip before unlocking your phone to see the text. a simple âyou busy??â was all that was sent, causing you to look back up to the sleeping screen in front of you.
you sucked your teeth and looked back down to the screen, seeing the little three dots pop up and disappear. ânot really, wtv??â you responded back because who were you kidding? that assignment was not getting completed tonight.
shutting down your laptop, you thought about what storm juju could possibly be typing up at that moment. you and juju have been in the confusing limbo between lovers and good friends for the past few months and it has been eating you alive.
it wasn't what you wanted, but for the past month you have been picking up jujuâs subtle hints of not wanting to be in a committed and labeled relationship with you. itâs been bugging you for a while, but you were scared if you brought up your anxieties with the girl, then whatever is happening between the two of you would come to an end.
you snapped out of your thoughts when you felt your phone vibrate. taking a breath, you slowly opened the message. âima be there in 20 get readyâ you furrowed your brows at text, instantly moving your thumbs to send a text back. âwho said you can js come over at 9pm like thatâŚâ
a couple seconds passed by before her text back rolled in. âme. now I'm seeing a lot of typing when you should be getting ready⌠okay? okay.â you let out a small laugh at her remark, a budding smile taking over your lips as much as you tried to counter it with an eye roll of feigned annoyance.
âyou're gonna be real surprised when i don't answer that doorâ you replied before getting off of your bed and walking to your closet, changing from your green moomoo into a black hoodie and sweats. You moved to your vanity where you did your edges and applied vaseline to your lips.
after you were done, you scrolled through tiktok until you heard the familiar sound of a knock on the front door. exiting your room, you maneuvered through the dorm until you reached the front door, debating on whether or not you should make the basketball player wait outside any longer.
counting down from ten at a relatively slow pace, you hid the smile on your face with a bored look as you opened the door. âwhat happened to not answering the door?â juju smartly questioned, visibly attempting and failing to hide that shit-eating grin that threatened to crawl onto her face.
âgirl- you better wipe that smile off your face. âshouldnât have even opened this door.â you said with a small eye roll as you opened the door wide enough for her to step through. âyes ma'am.â she sarcastically stated while entering the dorm. you closed the door behind her before being pulled into a hug.
juju wrapped her arms around your frame, slightly swaying the two of you side to side as she did so. you loved jujuâs hugs because they always left you with a smile on your face. as the hug came to an end, you heard the brief and soft sound of juju breathing you in.
âi missed you.â juju admitted, putting her hands in her pockets as she took a step back. âwe saw each other a couple days ago, juju.â you said with a slight laugh, mentally stomping on the butterflies that invaded your stomach at her words.
âokay, but like, that was for like ten minutes and my teammates were there. it didn't count.â you rolled your eyes at her defense, crossing your arms. âand how did that not count?â you watched as jujuâs eyes scattered around your facial features, landing on your lips for a millisecond more than what would be deemed as appropriate before moving back up to your eyes.
âbecause i couldn't do this.â before you knew it, you felt jujuâs soft and gentle lips on yours. the kiss had a tenderness to it with blatant underlying emotions shining through. she had kissed you like this a couple of times before, but each and every time you feel like you were transported to a place outside of space and time.
you pulled away first and opened your eyes, watching as she did the same. your mind was screaming that she could've if she wanted to, but of course you didn't let it slip out. âyou ready to go?â she asked, putting her hands back in her pockets and licking her lips.
âalmost, i just gotta put on some shoes and grab my wallet.â you said while beginning the walk to your room, the sound of your slippers clacking with every step.
âgirl bye, you know you don't gotta bring your wallet!â you faintly heard juju call out from the living room with a laugh. you shook your head, grabbing your wallet and phone on the desk before moving to your shoe rack and slipping on your black tasman uggs.
you walked back into the main room where you saw juju lounging on the couch with a small smile towards her phone as she typed away. clearing your throat, you made your presence known to juju as she stood up and slid her phone in her pocket.
âyou gotta walk louder or something, almost scared the shit out of me.â she dramatically said, clenching at her heart with a laugh as she rounded the couch to you.
you faked a laugh back, catching how quick she put her phone away after just cheesing at it. âwhere are we going?â you asked as the two of you reached the door, grabbing your keys from the hook as she opened the door for you.
âi was thinking we get some food and chill. those stories on your spam looked like you were going through it.â she said with a shrug, watching as you locked the door and guided the two of you to the elevators.
recalling the sped up video of you on the edge of tweaking out over one of your classes followed by a series of threats of dropping out you posted on your spamâs stories, you didn't think that the girl walking behind you would actually be an active viewer.
you covered your face and quietly groaned, trying to recover from the embarrassment while jujuâs light laughs bounced off the walls. stopping in your steps, you quickly snapped your neck to the girl, almost getting whiplash as you put your hand on your hip and gave her an accusatory look.
âwhats so funny?â she stopped laughing at your sharp, yet playful, words, holding her hands up in defense as a smile slipped onto her face. ânothing at all. must've been the windâŚâ she drew out as you tilted your head and narrowed your eyes.
âmhm, that's what i thought, four eyes.â you hummed out, watching the overhead lights slightly reflect from her glasses. you loved how she looked with her glasses, but you could never resist the urge to tease her about them.
you also had glasses but never wore them. your eye doctor hates to see you coming.
turning back around as you watched her jaw drop and the elevator doors open. âsee, cause we can really get active.â she jokingly sized you up, causing you to wave her off before stepping in the elevator. âlets get active then!â you dramatically challenged, bringing your hands up into a fighting stance and waving your hands.
juju shook her head with a smile and rolled her eyes when you motioned for her to make a move. she lightly slapped the side of your head and weaved away from your slap back.
ââ ⢠ăťâ¸â¸
you gazed at jujuâs side profile as she made a turn out of the chick-fil-a parking lot. the mellow sounds of tonight by summer walker drifted through the car, accompanied by jujuâs faint hums. âi can feel you staring.â she let out, a small smile playing at her lips when she shifted her eyes onto you once the light turned red.
âi don't know what you're talking about.â you covered up, facing directly ahead of you even though you were already caught. juju shook her head and shifted in her seat, occasionally looking back over at you. after a few minutes of comfortable silence and you texting your friends, you felt juju back up into a parking space and looked up.
she had driven the both of you to a small and relatively empty park. after getting out of the car, you grabbed the bag of food and she grabbed the drinks before heading to a picnic table by a streetlight. setting the food and drinks on the table, you took the seat across from her.
âyou really have to let me pay next time, judea.â you drew out, removing your portion of food from the bag and setting it on the table along with napkins. juju sucked her teeth and waved her off as she dipped a fry.
âgovernment is crazy, but i was the one who invited you out, it just makes sense that i pay.â she shrugs before eating the fry. âokay but, even when i invited you to the fair like three weeks ago you wouldnât let me pay for anything but the food.â she took a sip of her drink before responding.
âlet me appreciate you how i want to, okay?â she playfully declared, continuing to eat her food. you dramatically sighed, taking a bite of your own food. a comfortable silence rested amongst the two of you until juju eventually broke it.
âi also wanted to spend time with you because i feel like you've just been hella distant lately. at least with me.â she expressed in a more serious tone, eyes studying your body language and expressions behind those thick rimmed glasses.
you furrowed your brows, although deep down you knew there was some truth to what she was saying. although the two of you weren't in an official relationship, you still felt some type of way when you saw or heard about her flirting with other girls.
it pained you each and every time and the best way you could think of becoming less bothered was by giving her some space and treating the situation the two of you had going on as more of a friendship than what you so deeply wanted it to be.
âiâve just been so busy with school and work.â you partly lied. âbullshit. iâve seen you laughing it up with your other friends around campus, but when i want to facetime or spend time with you lately you've been ducking me more and more. why is that?â
you scratched your eyebrow, contemplating on if it was the right time to have this conversation. her phone lit up, but she paid no mind to it. as you opened your mouth to speak she cut you off before you could come up with an excuse.
âand don't tell me another weak excuse. you know i hate when you do that. just tell me the real reason straight up.â she stated, watching the conflicting emotions take over your face.
âi like you a lot.â you started out, keeping your eyes focused on your cup as you played with the straw. âand i like you a lot.â juju responded with a shrug like it was common knowledge.
you bit down on your bottom lip before sighing. âwhat are we doing?â you asked her, finally making eye contact with the girl in front of you. youâve been avoiding it this whole time due to how strong her gaze felt. âyou tell me.â you rolled your eyes at her remark and began fidgeting with your hands.
âit feels like iâm the only one who wants to make what we have official. i want to be in a real relationship with you andâŚâ you sighed, running a hand over your head, deciding that you should just let all your emotions out. âfuck it, iâll just say it. seeing you flirt with and entertain other girls makes me feel like shit inside. and i get it if you're not readyâyouâve made it knownâbut, like, tell me now before i get more attached.â
you're heart hurt as you looked anywhere but the girl in front of you as you tried to hold back any tears from falling. it was silent for a second, the only sounds that were heard were the sounds of the treeâs in the breeze and the distant traffic.
you felt nauseous with how long juju was taking to respond, wishing that you just kept your mouth shut and didn't tell her how you were actually feeling. âwho said i wasn't ready?â your eyes instantly snapped to the brown-eyed girl in front of you.
your eyebrows furrowed as she continued. âbaby, iâve been waiting for you to say something. you've been so distant so i thought you really didn't want anything to do with me like that.â she begun, taking a breath of relief. you started to shake your head but she nodded with a smile.
âi know that's not what it is now, but for like the past few weeks that's what i thought it was. i might sound like a total dick for saying this but i genuinely dont care for any of the girls i have been entertaining with the way i care for you. they were honest distractions until you came around wanting more than what we have now.â
you felt so many emotions at the moment, but the one that shined through the most was the pure joy at her words. âif i knew we were on the same page, i would've been asked you to be my girlfriend!â you expressed with a laugh, causing jujuâs smile to grow bigger.
âare you asking me to be your girlfriend?â she cheeses, slightly bringing a shoulder up as she grabbed your hand. you tried to go stale face but were too overjoyed at the moment. âNo. I want to do something special.â you could see how she blushed at your words and adjusted her glasses.
âyou don't have to do all thatâŚâ she drew out but you shook your head. âlet me appreciate you how i want to, okay?â you mimicked her words back to her, causing her to playfully gasp and remove her remaining hand from your hand.
ânot you using my words against me, wowâŚâ she drew out with a laugh. the two of you finished your food as you went into playful banter.
after chatting at the park for a good twenty minutes, the two of you were back in the car heading towards your dorm. the energies were much different than they had been on the way to the park.
the rays of each streetlight the car passed seeped through the windows and casted a light glow upon the two of you. juju grabbed your jaw with one hand, squeezing your cheeks and moving your head side to side while she loudly sang along to gonna love me by teyana taylor.
as the car reached a red light, you stole a kiss to which she happily gave. the car was full of hope, happiness, and blissful young love. you couldn't have imagined a better outcome for the night.

ok i listened to the album i was right its aoty, heres my ranking plus more thoughts/reactions under the cut if u want to see what i thought in more depth!!
luna > life is beautiful > who you are > weâre in love > shut up ë°ęł crazy hot > yes or no > intro window
intro window: SO GOOD perfect way to set up the album i think. nothing will beat devil in the detail as the best oneus intro but its amazing esp with choi yelim on the track, the mix of traditional korean singing with the obviously pop sounding song is such an amazing effect
luna: i literally have like. no words lol i cant talk abt this song coherently. the lyrics are stunning & poetic, the song itself is stunning and all of it flows with the rap in a gentler song, THE CHORUS i think thats my favorite seoho esp sounds stunning in it. i love how its all in korean !! i thought that it was when i heard it at the concert but its so cool that thats rly the case. i think it makes the song sound way more seamless like i think english wouldve taken me out of it. also unrelated to how the song sounds but the choreo might be one of their best choreos to date its GORGEOUS i cant wait for the dance practice. the song js just so short đ
yes or no: stopp this is so cute, i love the chorus !!!!, the producing is rly good i like the xylophone (i dont think thats what it is but it sounds like smth like it & idk percussion instruments well enough to tell), this is just good vibes :,), also rly short???
life is beautiful: obv ive already heard this i LOVE this song đ idk it just makes me so happy. especially the chorus lmao ig this is the album of perfect choruses so far. i think its funny the movie they paired with this song is dead poets society bc . lol. yeah u know đ also this might unpopular but i think i like the eng version of this song better? only bc there are like 2 lines i think are sung prettier but thats it its very close pfft. anyway yeah love this song
shut up ë°ęł crazy hot: also have heard this before ofc!! i rly like it too hehee the choreo is super fun also i get âholler holler people calling me left and rightâ from the english version stuck in my head a lot. i love the piano at the beginning and the end i think its rly good. also this somg also sounds like a monsta x song in a different way to how luna sounds like a monsta x song but like. both are in a good way too of course!!
weâre in love: dongju said this his fave song so ! im expecting smth lighter & cuter maybe? YEAH I LOVE THIS ALREADY đ OOOH the melody is suuuper interesting at some points its doing things i am not expecting it to. xion vocals đđ!!!!!!!!! ahhhh this song is so like cute and heartwarming feeling
who you are: GUITAR!!! WAIT I LOVE THIS BEGINNING VOCAL LINE SHOWING UP TO THE ASSIGNMENT!!!!!!!!!! oooooh i love this chorus. this ? also sounds like it could be a mx song sorry i keep saying thay i promise its always a good thing đ WAIT THE BRIDGE SEOHO!!!!!! when ppl other than tomoons appreciate him for being one of the best 4th gen bg vocalists >>>

Warlocks Are Attacking: Full muggle timeline.
(Hello internet, welllllcome to film theory!)
This is a detailed timeline of the headcanon I made about James Sirius Potter being in a band, specifically the tl during which the band pretended to be a lost 80s band in the muggle world, explained in this post (which I recommend reading first otherwise you may be quite confused).
This is honestly a super random thing I wrote when I was bored, but I ended up getting super invested in it so guess what, you guys are subjected to it as well now!
Written in the style of a YouTube video, Iâve heavily based the discography of Warlocks are Attacking on the band I Donât Know How But They Found Me.
Enjoy!
~ On April 17th 2025, a piano cover of The Scientist by Coldplay was released on the YouTube channel JSHarkness04. A completely ordinary- if not low quality- video where the person behind the camera is neither seen nor heard.
More covers are uploaded over the coming months in the same style, and really the channel gains no special interest or notoriety. A few edit videos are uploaded, the usual crack stuff, and a few more covers.
On January 23rd 2026, a vlog is released showing the YouTuber moving into his new house. We finally hear and see the person behind the camera, a British dude around early twenties whose name is revealed to be Alex, and his girlfriend. Again, thereâs nothing out of the ordinary in this video, and itâs only a few minutes long.
A few more piano covers are uploaded, as well as another edit video, and then...
This is where it starts.
On May 3rd 2026, a video is uploaded entitled âWarlocks are Attackingâ. In it, Alex talks about how he was clearing out the attic of his new home when he came across some old cassette tapes. All the tapes had writing on them, all different, except for the phrase âWarlocks are Attackingâ. Judging by the labels, it appeared to be the name of a band, while the rest of the writing could be taken as song titles: Bleed Magic, Do It All The Time, Nobody Likes the Opening Band, etc. Alex said he had listened to some of the tapes, and confirmed that they were songs correlating with the titles. Alex said heâd never heard of the songs before, nor could he find any trace of the bandâs existence online, but that some of the tapes had been dated 1986.
This video didnât really have a conclusion, but only two days after it was uploaded, another video- only a minute long- was uploaded entitled âNew Channelâ, where Alex explains that he would be setting up a new YouTube channel to showcase the songs heâd found on the tapes, and hopefully be able to find out who the band was.
On May 25th, two videos on Alexâs new channel, given the name âWarlocks are Attackingâ were uploaded. The first one was 30 seconds long entitled âIntroductionâ, which was nothing more than a manâs voice introducing the band. It didnât cause much suspicion, especially since the record label that the band was apparently signed to was called âNone You Jerkâ, obviously a fake label. So the introduction could most likely just be a joke made by the band and recorded.
The second video was a simple lyric video for the song âNobody Likes the Opening Bandâ. And in the description he explained the story again of how he found the tapes, and asked if anyone knew the song, or the band.
More songs were uploaded, Choke, Bleed Magic, Absinthe etc. And soon the channel started to grow, both from people who genuinely enjoyed the music, and people who were intrigued as to whether or not this really was a lost 80s band, or whether the entire thing was fake.
Theories started circulating, and people started to try and find hidden messages. They started with the username of the original channel JSHarkness04 but search J Harkness, or even JS Harkness, and the only real result you get is Captain Jack Harkness from Doctor Who. So it seemed that the only thing that the username implied was that the YouTuber was perhaps a Doctor Who fan.
People searched for hidden meanings in the piano covers, the moving house vlog, even the random edits. But no one came up with anything. So eventually people started to give up and accepted the fact that the whole thing was real, and the songs really were from old cassette tapes found in some guyâs attic.
That being said, there were a select few people who just werenât convinced. Mainly because of the fact that the songs were good. They werenât experimental pieces from a band trying to find its sound. They had their sound. They knew what they were doing. So how come no one had ever heard of them? Did they really never play these songs to anyone? Not even for an underground gig?
Well, thatâs the thing. Thereâs no saying they didnât. If you heard a song forty years ago at some random gig, would you remember? And even so, a number of things could have happened that would have stopped the band from ever having their songs released. Maybe they broke up, maybe they couldnât find anyone who wanted to pick up their songs, maybe they died was one theory someone had.
Point is, the quality and consistency of the songs was really the only evidence that this whole thing was fake, and even that evidence was sketchy.
But then, on November 7th 2026, an altogether different video was uploaded titled âComfortably Numb- Pink Floyd (cover by Warlocks are Attacking) (found footage!)â
In the description of this video, Alex claims that he found some video tapes in the attic that had been hidden away. A few had been recorded over, but he was able to find a few complete videos of the band.
In this video, we see three band members in what looks like a garage jamming out a cover of Pink Floydâs Comfortably Numb. And people went crazy. Not only did we finally see what the band members looked like, but we also found out their names. The video, which was dated 1983, had credits edited to the beginning, easily done in the 80s so there was no implication that it wasnât legit.
Anyway, the credits show that the singer in the video is called Noah Mori, the keyboardist is called Lyra Thomas, and the drummer is called James Potter.
People took apart this video piece by piece, trying to find evidence of either the band being new, or some connection to the YouTuber. Maybe something in the garage was from a time after 1983, maybe the 70s Doctor Who poster in the corner had something to do with JSHarkness04. But all in all, once again, there really was nothing to suggest that it wasnât real.
However, one thing that was noticed was that, when comparing the singing voice of Noah to the singing voice in the other songs released, they sound completely different.
So despite everything, no one could say for sure who the band members were. We didnât know if the drummer and the keyboardist were the same, nor did we know who the new singer was. We didnât even know if they had more than three band members by the time 1986 rolled around, or even if some of the original members had left. All we knew was that the singer had been switched, either with a new singer who wasnât in the video, or with James Potter, since he was the only other guy in the video.
After the video was released, not much else happened, except the occasional release of another song, which were combed by theorisers looking for evidence that the songs couldnât have been written and recorded in the 80s but once again came up short.
By this point, the band had grown a real cult following, increased even further when the songs were put on Spotify by Alex.
On March 18th 2027, another video was released, titled âChoke- Live Performanceâ and showed footage of an actual gig where the band was playing their song, filmed on an old camcorder by someone in the audience, completely unprofessionally as the camera would bob down every so often. Once again no evidence was found of it being faked. However, it did open new possibilities: the band had played gigs. Which means that someone must have seen them play. Not only that but it confirmed that the singer had been switched to James Potter, while the drummer was now Noah, and Lyra was still the keyboardist.
People went onto various sites trying to find anyone who may have been present at a gig in the 80s to see the band live, but no one came forward.
Well, a few people did. But the only evidence they could give was their word, so no one knew whether or not to believe them, which means no one could for definite write off the gig as being fake.
The next stir in the bandâs fanbase came with a video simply entitled â???â, a one minute video, with the same voice as the introduction, talking about indoctrination:
Indoctrination program, designation "CVM51-D". Congratulations, you have been selected. You are special. Only the very best and brightestâ
areâ
considered for placementâ
in our patented Temporal Arts program. Weâ
invite you to follow along, as we work together to decode and exploit the secrets of time and space for our benefit. Each volunteer pairing will be assigned a chaperone. Our white shadows will oversee your progress. Be sure that our company's interests maintain the highest priority throughout your journey. Please enjoy your experience, and remember: Time is on our side.
Predictably, people were very excited to analyse the text, and while it could still be taken as just a joke by the band, and therefore still no evidence of the band being new, it was an odd thing for the band to do if their songs were never released. A waste of time in a way, especially after already doing it once with the introduction. The voice also wasnât familiar, though some say that it sounded a little like Noah when compared with the Pink Floyd cover, but putting on an American accent and edited to sound like something out of a PSA.
Another song was released entitled âNeed You Hereâ and then came an actual music video. Or at least, an attempt at a music video.
It was for the song: âNobody Likes the Opening Bandâ and in the video we see James singing on a stage, with Lyra playing the piano in a corner and Noah entering onto the stage to play the accompanying tambourine. Itâs clearly a music video rather than footage from a show, considering the rather humorous moments that it involves, but executed with complete seriousness.
It also cuts out at the end and shows footage from some kids show which, according to Alex in the description, was called Bagpuss, and was aired in the UK from February 12th 1974 to May 7th of the same year, indicating that the music video had perhaps accidentally been taped over.
(Badly edited example I made of the end of the mv).
While the music video itself didnât cause too much of a stir, the kids show at the end did, as people claimed that if the show had aired in 1974, and the band hadnât established itself until at least 1983, how had they managed to accidentally tape over the video with the tv show? People thought it was deliberate, and therefore a sign that the band wasnât real. Others claimed Alex had done it himself as a joke.
Looking back in the coming months, people saw this video as the start of the band slowly revealing itself to be not what it first seemed. But more evidence didnât come for a while.
After the release of the song âMad IQsâ, another music video was released, and this one seemed much more professional, as if the band was really trying to make a proper video. It was still filmed in the 80s camcorder style, and it was still very simplistic, and possibly low-budget, again implying that this was a band doing everything themselves.
Released on the 23rd December 2027, the video was a cover of âMerry Christmas Everybodyâ and once again had the rather quirky vibe of the Opening Band video, where James is unsmilingly singing the song while Noah sits next to him... playing dead? And Lyra comes in halfway through and begins decorating the lifeless Noah with Christmas lights. So at least, if nothing, we know the band has a sense of humour.
An acoustic cover was released of Choke, then a few more songs. And then another music video which so far was the most professional out of all of the ones released. The song was called âSocial Climbâ and for the video, they actually had a set: a very fancy mansion. We donât know whether they rented the mansion out, if they borrowed it from a friend, or if one of them even lived there, but by this point they had seemingly become determined to be a real band, which is why the whole idea of them having no recognition whatsoever was odd.
But it was the next video that caused much more of stir, and was the real proper beginning of the band revealing their true identity.
On the 12th September 2027, another cover video was released of David Bowieâs âHeroesâ, though was much more in the same style as the Comfortably Numb cover, suggesting that this video was made quite soon after. It was still filmed in the same garage, though with a little more editing, and James was now the singer, and Noah the drummer.
Once again it had credits, but this time they were a little different:
Songwriter/drummer: N. H. Mori Keyboardist: L. A. Thomas Singer/guitarist: J. S. Potter
Doesnât seem like anything out of the ordinary, right? Well, thatâs what most people thought too, but others were adamant that the initials were a sign, because if you notice, James Potter: J S Potter.
People were convinced that the initials JS were linked to the username JSHarkness04, and even brought up the 70s poster of Doctor Who seen in the first footage video as evidence that the username was something to do with James, and therefore showing that the entire thing was contrived.
Some people accepted this, but a lot of people were still sceptical. After all, it could easily just be a coincidence.
Another song was released, and then one more music video on November 16th.
This one was the most different- and the most professional of all the music videos on the channel, for the song âDo It All The Timeâ.
According to the description, it was sent to Alex by âan anonymous donorâ saying that it had once been aired as an educational video in their school, around the year 1987/88.
And while the video could have been created in the 80s, itâs format is much more satirical than anything. The description could easily have said that it was another- and much better- attempt from the band at creating a music video, but instead the description gave an explanation that seemed... off. Not because the uploader had grown cocky, but because the band was finally making its transition from being surrounded in theory to being simply aesthetically satirical.
That being said, it still wasnât concrete evidence.
There wasnât another video until December 23rd. Another Christmas one, this time for a song called âOh Noelâ with James sitting alone in front of a decorated fireplace and singing.
Another subtle reference to the bandâs identity was revealed with the lyric âI met you in December â93â, obviously quite a few years after the band was supposedly around.
The next music video was for âModern Day Cainâ, and this is where the bandâs identity properly moved away from the convincing 80s set up. The music video had a similar vibe to âDo It All The Timeâ, though the content was different. In this case, the video was mock footage from a TV show, which, according to the description was called âSuperstar Showcaseâ, aired in 1989.
No such TV show ever existed, which was rather obvious by the footage, as once again it was very satirical.
So by now, only the most stubborn of fans were still convinced that the band was really from the 80s.
But no one was really disappointed. The band had executed their persona well. They had maintained the belief that they were a lost band for over two years, and revealed themselves so subtly that people hardly noticed.
The entire act was wrapped up on April 17th 2028, exactly three years after the first video was uploaded on JSHarkness04â˛s channel, with the release of a cover of âDebraâ by Beck. A song released in 1999.
I should mention by this point that the channel JSHarkness04 had been uploading relatively consistently the entire time, most likely for the extra realism to the act. But once the act had been dropped, the channel went dormant.
Since then, the band has been releasing new songs here and there, and they still keep up the 80s persona, but now that they donât have to be so careful, theyâve been able to have more freedom over what they post. An official music video for âChokeâ was released, with the description:
âPop Time Live was a short-lived music television program that aired briefly in Eastern Europe in the early 1980s. The show, and its producers, had hoped to capitalize on the then popular âItalo Discoâ movement, but audiences found its lack of authenticity objectionable. Labeled âNOT FOR BROADCAST,â it is believed that this particular Warlocks performance never made it to air due to the bandâs refusal to properly pantomime to their own song.â
Again, no such show existed. So now it was clear that the band was now a fully satirical 80s persona, and eventually they made live appearances, and even interviews, where people were finally able to find out exactly who they were, and that the band had actually been formed in 2021, and their plan to pretend to be an 80s band had first been made up by Noah who filmed one of their performances when they were first starting out (and James was still the drummer, Noah the lead singer) with the idea already in mind. And Alex was a friend of the group who had agreed to play along, but that the Warlocksâ YouTube channel wasnât run by him, but by all three members of the group.
And as of now, that really covers the entire timeline of Warlocks are Attacking.
~ But heeey. Thatâs juust a theory. A film theory. Aaand cut.
