I love the robbers and cowards album I wish they weren't total dicks in reality...(yes people I met them and they were cocky stereotypical hipster dick heads)
does anybody know the name of the album this song is on? i cant find them in any music stores and i have been looking for it everytime i go into a music store for the past year! :@
This is literally one of the easiest songs to play I have ever heard. It is literally two notes during the verse, just played with octaves. And somehow, someway, they rock the fuck out of it.
@ConnecticutsBest yessir, its just G and E, for the verse at least. I'm not trying to be an asshole, simply commenting how thy rock two notes so amazingly.
I'm guessing that the 1 "dislike" was an accident..... Live is the way to experience Cold War Kids. They have laid it all out on stage every time I have seen them. They keep getting better!
I have never really listened to them before, but a band is going to stump their toe from time to time with that weird syncopation. I think they sound pretty tight, actually.
@SRJ88X You Sir, go and listen to Limp Bizkit or whatever commercial shitfest your into. This is music for real music fans not fashion pricks. Now kindly fuck off.
@SRJ88X Learn to type you fucking half wit. Now lets re-arrange your response by removing the two words "non" and "mainstream". This is what I think you meant...
"i listen to fuckin shit you cunt"
There we go. Now again please kindly fuck off till you have some taste.
@dazzdeadmeadow so you calling arcade fire, the black keys, broken bells, and springsteen shit? alright man you got me... even though i listen to cold war kids too...something is not right with me
@SRJ88X What the fuck are you talking about you clueless fool? You were merely a glint in some drug-addled floozie's eye when real rock was being created.
@shatteredglassluck1 Yah i noticed it too, its actually a sound quite similar on the album version so i guess they were emulating it, although im not sure how they did it on either version.
@shatteredglassluck1 Many reverb units in guitar amps have springs in them. If you shake the amp, or strike the unit enough to jostle the spring against the side of the tank, you get that sound. You can hear the spring "wiggling" after the initial hit.
What Kate did to this song is nothing in comparison to what April Lavigne did to "Fuel" or "Basket Case". Nevertheless - you're right - she did a very bad job.
@IBTS13 honestly, I had never heard of Kate Nash or her version. So I popped over to the video of her live performance of this. HOLY FUCK! it's just...awful. She might as well have needled hot shit directly into my ear drums. Next time I will just take your word for it!
