Dead Confederate Performing "The Rat" on Late Night with Conan O'Brien

[qwerty887]

good song... but singer has to stop acting like KC

[pizzaROX]

wow the orgiinal conan intro... soo good

[facemonkeys]

my cousin is engaged to the singer, like straight up.

[psycho826]

prove it

[facemonkeys]

how?

[psycho826]

pix, vids, etc

[Hilke88]

@facemonkeys yea you post that on like every dead confederate video, no one cares

[Psyk0s1s]

Listen to flesh colored canvas pure bliss !!!!

[jwahwah2]

grunge is back thank fuck !

[jmoatticus]

amazing band is amazing.

[WookiePUBE]

Indie kids, and hipsters suck. However obnoxious elitist, thesaurus rapists like "IndieBeard" suck even more.

As for the video. I thought I'd like Dead Confederate, they come up as a suggestion with Dead Meadow videos, but their just too Nirvana and I hated them.

[thekillers1stfan]

it's alright to hate nirvana and like them, i do

[FlakyShaky]

I like them, they have a good sound. And they're from my homestate. :)

[ryhsh72]

The beard cushioned your fall

[SuFFeRSuM]

this band fooking rock

[LookAtMyIndieBeard]

Typical indie kid response. You try to establish some kind of superlative appreciation for a band that doesn't even know your name, and when confronted with the ridiculous nature of this recursive dominance, you reach for the most banal response possible.

Oh, I almost forgot: your mom's a bitch.

[xxciv]

Once I read "the ridiculous nature of this recursive dominance" I knew it was time for a beer. Well put.

In addition, one of them is terrible with names.

[permian11]

best use of a thesaurus award goes to indiebeard

[psycho826]

agreed. i didnt understand a word of it tho lol

[playrugbypushmongo]

your whole name is dissing indies.... boy you are bitter

[LookAtMyIndieBeard]

Oh yeah?! Well I saw them over 2 years ago so...

BANG BANG!

@5:01 - This is why you don't wear rollerskates on Conan.

[thelostcosmonaut]

Yah? Well you're a bitch.

[ising4kings]

i grew up with them in augusta

[thelostcosmonaut]

they aren't that "new". i saw them play with explosions in the sky over a year ago. definitely a great band though.

[shawnsmtn]

I saw these guys with Kirkwood Dellinger and Meat PUppets. Awesome show, hung out with em for a while. Cool Dudes!

[permian11]

his mannerisms are exactly like kurt cobain. like exactly

[Bramgti]

only that shirt is the same..

[permian11]

are you joking? watch a video of nirvana next to this, their movements and just how they play/sing are super similar

[valiumsummer]

I have to agree with permian11 (on this video at least) first thing I thought was "Nirvana".

[NinaAirtz]

@permian11 before watching I was like "ooh, no I'm sure he doesn't", but man you're so right.

I'm pretty sure its cause of the green vest.

it was in 2008, he changed since , cool for him.

[foleyoni]

depressed shit

[WIGNSWORD]

Japandrifting is WRONGO!!

This song reached straight within!

[Japandrifting]

boring

[plutofactory]

the beard ;)

[controlfreak07]

What a killer band!! The Rat is one of the best new songs I've heard in a while.

[Backyardrastlexx]

When I thought there was no new good songs, or bands, Dead Confederate shows up and blows me away, probably the best new band out today, or in the past few years

[ZephyrKid360]

Saw them at the Independence Jam in Oceanside, CA...totally surprised me...such a heavy band, except this song. Great stuff =)

[JamesMusicforlife]

these guys remind me of the band ours

[jarizico]

great great band next year on the pinkpop festival in holland!!!!!!!!

[hakukaji]

yeah they killed it at AthFest

[alex01261991]

Saw these guys play at athfest. Fucking Awesome!!!!

[Vaiplayszappa]

Ill never forget seeing this performance back in October. I was speechless! The song fit in with the month of October so well. It's so dark. I get to see them tomorrow at Summerfest. Really happy about that

[TheAbsolutionHowl]

I caught the start and end of their set (I unfortunately had to cut out in the middle to see/support my friends band) and it was absolutely incredible.fantastic.

Definitely the best set from a big name band that day. SO good.

[Vaiplayszappa]

Did you catch their cover of "Gouge Away" by the Pixies? If I would have closed my eyes I would have honestly thought it was the original Pixies playing it with Hardy on vocals. I saw the Pixies back in 2005 too which proves how incredible the cover was

[TheAbsolutionHowl]

I did, actually!

It was ridiculously spot-on.

I also say that as a fan of both bands.

Although, unfortunately, I haven't seen the Pixies live yet.

[JDMasFUCK666]

this band is what music needed right about now. I lost hope for a while

[mobiusmultimedia]

find him, and perhaps show him something sharp.

[mobiusmultimedia]

If Conan jokes about Michael Jackson I'll come to LA

[Storolf]

I'd rather he had Kurt Cobain's voice than just Kurt Cobain's look.

[xxciv]

poor walker.

[lodie311]

they remind of seether whcih remind me of nirvana and i hate seether but i dont hate this band :)

[Tylerlemons947]

You live inside of your jesus dream.

[vintageleon76]

Nirvana wannabees? Well what better band to be like or imitate right! These guys rocked, saw them in Memphis with Dinosaur jr. and will see them in july at the Hightone in Memphis! The south at them moment has the best music going on! Kings of Leon, North Miss Allstars, Hill Co. Review, omg and so much more... see you in july..

[JDMasFUCK666]

dead confed, and dinosaur jr? lucky

[irishbear78]

One of the many Great bands from Athens ! I'm from Athens , Ga . We have had and still have alot of great bands and the Best college ! Goooooooooooo Dawgs !

[JimmyThePornStar]

haha, Nirvana wannabees, he even does that guitar-move that Kurt used to do.

[JusticieroDeLaMuerte]

Kurt Cobain???

[JerryHammer1]

Hardy aint tryin to be Kurt Cobain...trust me. He is a happy fella and a dark artist.

[nirvanal15]

in my opinion, they remind me of nirvana.

[strikerx23]

naaaaaaaaaaa how the hell does he do it.... he has one of the most aphonic and cooooolest voices.... it sounds likes he's sick or has some crap in his throat xD.... AWSSOOOOMEEE...

[lui93t15M]

they kinda remind me of nirvana!!

[greaser1952]

bang bang motherfucker

[jstich]

good song... on a related note: why did this show have to end?

[Machinehead45]

I don't know if someone answered but Conan is taking over the Tonight Show on 6/1. But yeah Dead Confederate is my favorite band out right now by far!

[etothedtotheward]

you live inside

your Jesus dream

[cbrandom]

No u

[sunsettattoos]

Incredible sound and performance. Bands hardly ever sound that good on a late night show. This guy is NOT trying to act like Kurdt. He is doing the damn thing and def knows what's up with that Tele!

[funkymonk16]

I like this band but hes trying to hard to act like kurt cobain

[edward4ever190]

i <3 dead confederate!

[jogocown]

i shook the lead singers hand it was pretty awsome

[TheScrotumTickler]

This band fucking rocks. I was really starting to get disappointed with rock and roll til I heard this album.

[leftywitt]

whats with your name?

[morecowbell69]

Seems pretty straightforward.

[cbrandom]

I lol'd

[Rambo29]

I'm from the Atlanta area. This band, Mastodon, Deerhunter and the Black Lips basically rule this place

[qazmatoz]

From my city actually, Augusta, GA. Pretty impressive stuff but really dated sound. I think they went to the high school across town from mine.

[NGMmedia]

haha you know wats funny.

i met conan in person and these guys in person in the same 2 week span. pretty impressive on my behalf i think.

[gearhead920]

saw them last night at the bottom lounge in chicago, fucking phenomenal live show!!

[patrickpjfan]

Seeing them tonight in Chicago.

[raybo1984]

as soon as i seen that kid i thought he looked like a little kurt cobain impersonater..def very talented guys..great lyrics

[Psypherion]

Lol, I thought the fall was part of show. Bang! Bang!

[kangor44]

this bands great live

[Clausfarre]

Hmmm....1000 hours in front of a mirror to get "that look" if you know what I mean.

[wreklessabandon]

Yo- im not a tool- and actually if Kurt wasnt murdered then the idea of him killing himself is a conspiracy theory... so doesnt that make me smarter then the normal dumbass? you go ahead and base your ideas off some dumbshit documentary! Dont ever challenge me on my Nirvana and or Kurt trivia!!!! I promise you will lose! And yes this is a formal challenge! Answer me this why was Jason Everman kicked out of the band? any ideas thanks post back!

[PeaceL0veEmpathy]

I'm an Associate Producer on Project Unplugged. Don't even try to compete with me douche.

[fastone2004]

singer reminds me of kurt cobain and the drummer rules.

[wreklessabandon]

you know i knew he reminds me of someone and now i realize that i am seeing him- its total Kurt cobain so weird dont think hes trying either like so many have before him after kurts suicide! go to hell wes scantlin!

[PeaceL0veEmpathy]

Kurt didn't commit suicide you tool. Damn, people are soo ignorant.

[Clausfarre]

Then what happened? Murder? If so who? Why? People who trust police reports aren't necessarily tools.

[deathbyhighkick]

Stupid fucker.

[ZephyrTeamskater]

holy shit the sound amazing live

[asianmatt2012]

the drummer owns.

[Fizks]

Uhm, sure its Cobain-ish (irrelevant).Influence is inevitable. Better this nirvana-esc sound than the overproduced non-style crap of today. Even The band era was better than this culture plateau times.

[grillsonfire]

the way he holds his guitar and plucks it

reminds me of kurt cobain

anyone think the same?

[PoonJammer69]

thats so funny!!! cause when i 1st saw this band thats the 1st thing i thought also :) they remind me of a southern nirvana

[chseville]

Conan says "That was Killer." I like it. These guys have a way about them. Gonna catch them at Bowery Ballroom on March 7.

[timeg118]

very Cobainish wouldn't you say

[SpitfireSuicide13]

God...I cant get enough of thses guys......

so freaking talented...i could listen to them over and over

[breatheasy9er]

wow.....conan, you know you've made it. great music guys. fucking awesome, seriously

[IRIPWAX]

BULLSHIT.

[drumsformojave]

I just posted a comment on your new video... but I really like you guys.

Great Sounds, hopefully I'll see you live this year.

Oh and great dynamics for this song! killer tune guys!

[mypartyshop]

Nirvana reborn? Also rate "The Rat" - when are you coming to London

[crimsonred17]

Conan's so funny. And he likes good music. Hes a huge fan of White Stripes as well

[speedstarAE86]

best southern rock band since skynard WHOS WITH ME?!

[joshuaGFU]

the beard cushioned your fall. genius.

[laxliver]

interesting sound. good stuff

[conorpsr]

I dig how Conan O'Brien seemed to actually like the song.

[echo333fly]

looks like Kurt Cobain, except he`s right-handed, but the song as a band is really good!!

[aSlightPinch]

When i saw this on TV thats what i thought.

but then i listened to the music, and i was just in awe.

Its good to channel good things.

[speedstarAE86]

to me he looks more like edward furlong. I was wondering what happened to that guy

[epicstorm2006]

Great song! Really good preformance!

I look forward to hearing more from you.

[rodriguezclassical]

I wish these gents much success. Love the long lost singer/songwriter genre. Keep it alive

[ci462]

You guys are some of the best music I've heard in a while, I just bought your album last night. It's amazing! Great work.

[coolet5]

this song rocks!!!!

[GoddessFourWinds]

He moves like Kurt Cobain. o.O

[imasuperbeaver]

Sweet, keep the videos comming.

[AstralAstray]

mr mustache

[Aehcim]

You guys are awesome, is your album available worldwide? I can't wait to buy it!

[imasuperbeaver]

It's available on iTunes with a bonus song.

[Aehcim]

But my country does not support the iTunes store , so my only option is to buy the physical CD from a local music store :( , I went the other day to see if they have it , and they didn't have it... :(

[rodriguezclassical]

It's available. I bought it at best buy. If you like this song, listen to "Goner"

[Aehcim]

Thanks for the reply and yeah "Goner" is freakin' awesome too. I finally got the CD and it's great!

[strokesjunkie]

[xMyMurderScenex]
