i love the album version of this song. it's very velvet underground, although that could be said ad nauseum about this excellent band. anyway, this live version is so cool. they really extrapolate on the otherwise simple structure of the album version. love this.
@TheOstenberg fuck off and go trolling to justin bieber music instead.....the kills are real music, maybe they revisited, but its called ''influence''.... xD
I love the connection they have with one another. I was really worried for a while that Dead Weather would put a huge tamper on The Kills but the new album is finished and I can't wait!!!!! LOVE THEM!
@crunchies987 I agree...these two have a better connection and you can really feel it in their music <3 not to worry though, apparently there should be a new Kills album in 2011
@crunchies987 I don't agree, The Dead Weather has much more anger and feeling than The Kills, i like them both, but i think compare The Kills with TDW is like compare a poem with sex, yes, both are love, but in different ways.
@ibatonio What about his guitar sound at the end? What do you think he's using for that sound? I've tried phasers, filters, erry-thing... I got close with some delay, filter and phase.. And jacked-up reverb.
Enjoying one of the moments when u're the only person from anyone u know that can truly appreciate a musician..My favorite guitarist alongside Jack White
F*cking awesome!!! Been a long, long time since I've been amazed with guitar music. System of a Down's "Chop Sue" was the last time. Eveything else is usually more like been-there-done-that-2-out-of-a-million.
@VMYeahVN i think they used to use an alesis HR-16 alongside an alesis MMT-8 sequencer, not sure if they changed that now though, i have the HR-16 and the sounds are the same, hope that helps
i wouldn't say THE MOST IMPORTANT. what about Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Beatles, Rolling Stones and a couple hundreds more then? definitely the Velvet Undeground were part of that series of bands that evolved music and spread inspiration and style teachings, but not the only ones, nor the most important
@Eri05Sunshine I know what you mean. Like The Dead Weather and the White Stripes, you really don't hear much radio play out of them, and it's rare you hear anything about them from others.
Until they catch on, enjoy this indulgent little secret, because when they're found out, they could face ruin. Just look at the Yeah Yeah Yeah's over the past year or so...
@Eri05Sunshine yeah I used to feel the same. Except everyone around me now knows of the kills because I've done some serious fan recruiting for them:)
@shinjukublack thanks so much for all the Kills uploads. we really appreciate it. :D

His is a model "175" or "176" (ca. mid 70s)
Her guitar is a "Verythin 4575" (ca. 1967)
I've got a Höfner guitar myself, wich love very much (very nice sound)...
