Saturday Savior

[sequoia225]

LOL someone seriously put "and pasta in your bed" on a comment here for the lyrics.

That just made my day.

hahahahahahahahaha

oh yeah, and Failure rocks - even after all this time.

[cfedora83]

best band ever.

[Anyafase8]

two people missed the thumbs up and accidentally hit the down... i forgive u

[Spence233]

This band should be more popular!

[ARIELSHTERN]

this is so pink floyd!~ :D they must be inspired by them

[pyurmassacur]

The music box at the start reminds me of J.F. Sebastian's creepy apartment from Bladerunner.

[Xiaborok]

one of the most underestimated bands ever...

[tdFMason12]

If you're a real failure fan then you also like on and year of the rabbit

[frankdrubbin12]

"I will be your Saturday savior...I can be that... and pasta in your bed!" Had never heard this 'til recently. Excellent stuff.

[rez1257]

@frankdrubbin12 It's "impostor in your bed" lol. Although I guess you could throw ravioli at a woman in bed that you care little for.

[BGibbs100]

@frankdrubbin12

It's imposter in your plan, then imposter in your bed. I think I like your lyrics better though.

[acidclarkie]

I went into every record shop in west London asking the muzo behind the counter if they had "Fantastic planet by Failure" the muzo had no idea what i was talking about. I just looked at the muzo and said "tut tut Failure tut tut and walked out smiling

[sakuhachi]

90's were exceptional, even today I continue discovering awesome music.

[aockdiamond429]

ahhhhhhhhhh greatness ,just ordered the album today

[myballsareunited]

This led me to Tool.

[Eesoteric43]

fucking great album. Saw them at lolapolooza. Have been in love with this album since then.

[FatElvis]

Oh 90s, I want you back so bad.

[lakingfitness]

I will be your Saturday savior.....

[enchantedonionqueen]

This is my Soundtrack...frickin love it...IAm never gonna stretch my shape...to be w/you..

[nakedblur]

@GINW63 I have no idea what you mean by that and yet I think that is awesome.

[BlueNote4003]

this song makes me feel like a slut

[madvanman2000]

failure kicks nirvana's ass before they wake up in the morning

[CBurton]

@madvanman2000 Comparing 2 grunge bands is the exact opposite of the meaning of grunge. You hear but don't listen.

[edwardinc]

How does Saturday Savior have over 14,000 listens and Failures big hit (which is a really good song) Stuck on you have just over 7,000? Still Fantastic Planet is one of my top 10 favorite albums, very inspirational.

[charlizejustice]

the best shit ever.

[TheJohnnyDanger]

The album is loosely based on Stanislaw Lem's "Solaris".

[pattyboy424]

fresh fuckin shit dude. one of my favortie songs.. no radio play tho.....

[ideaflo]

@pattyboy424 lol this album is from 96 you wont hear this on the radio anymore unless you are one of the lucky ones to have been listening to them in the prime ;)

[stargazerchloe]

EPIC FAILURE. And by that I mean Failure = epic.

[Octane818]

Oh dear gods thank you for posting this song to Youtube... I just had an emotional flashback, and now I am dealing with the cathartic release. Thanks, Failure was so far ahead of their time, and deserved much more than they ever received.

[levenst1]

They remind me a little of Alice in Chains

[magicalwrath]

is it me or does tool/ a perfect circle and failure have similarity in sound/vocals? Not lyrical wise but vocal wise

[maria061356]

@magicalwrath probably why Maynard chose to include a cover of "The Nurse Who Loved Me" on the last APC album.

[knapkni]

Inutero whoever you are thank you so much for posting these tunes from Failure , I cannot find this CD anywhere and miss cranking this on my stereo! My friend has a copy and we shared it amongst 3 apartments and that was ten years ago . This band rocks and should be heard by all you like Rock N Roll. Whhooowoooo!!!

[corissimo]

I remember I first heard this record, or rather a song from it, on KCRW's 'Morning Becomes Eclectic' in LA.

I was hooked.

Then the next day or so I hung out with my ex-girlfriend and talked her into buying me it at Tower Records...score.

I proceeded to play it constantly. It stayed in my cd tray for a good eight months straight.

[dpowanator]

i heard the whole album was about heroin, is it true? either way brilliant album

[Prymer55]

damn another cliche comparing grunge and heroine lol. i guess only heroine addicts could make that real. this music does put you in a state of confoundary from time to time. to hear lyrics about the lower of life does put you in a sense of an open vulnerable feeling. this music can make you escape by knowing the bottom feeling you know? like gettin way too fucked up on your own and thinkin about things. its just that this music isnt a drug. make your own judgement.

[Vorpalwinz]

it is (apparently) about getting into drugs, the effect of the drugs, getting addicted, going to rehab, and becoming addicted again after rehab. (order of the songs, another space song = high, nurse who loved me = rehab, etc)

[patrickcanney]

@dpowanator The whole album is based around a French cartoon La Planète Sauvage, lit. The Savage Planet, 1973

You will find it in English with the title Fantastic Planet on the internet, and don't watch the remixed version with the new soundtrack, it's garbage day and it doesn't have the same samples that failure used in their album.

[48track]

now in my favorites...

absolutely awesome...

[Vorpalwinz]

only recently introduced to this band, but damn i like their sound. underrated for sure, i thought myself to know a lot of bands but i had never heard of Failure until listening to the APC album with the cover of their song.

this band is amazing.

[kraastopher]

Ever listened to Jawbox? Similar to Failure and from the same era. Good stuff.

[iamlameduck]

I don't think they sound anything like Jawbox, aside from being loud aggressive rock from the 90s. This is much more grunge-influenced, and far more conventional in rhythm and chord voicings. Jawbox would never write anything this boring.

[zapz0rd]

Love this band. Totally ahead of their time and underrated. Deserved way more recognition than Nirvana and other bands.

[DrunkenLeprechaunPro]

@zapz0rd

Probably not more recognition than Nirvana... but most likely as much...

[Tombstone34]

@zapz0rd actually this album came out just as grunge was receeding so they could've but some people are fucking blind to good music like this

[TyphoidZCock]

@zapz0rd I totally agree with you. i just heard this band a few hours ago and i already like them more then Nirvana and most bands in the 90's.

[hardmous]

@zapz0rd I agree a great band but not ahead of their time. that would imply that this wasn't an amazing time for music (so much better bands and material back then). Also, you don't have to tear down Nirvana and other bands.

[MARKWAITES]

@zapz0rd Nirvana was around before them. I do agree that Nirvana gets too much credit.

[Crimson1st]

I wonder if the Name and the cover of the Album is any reference to the french animated movie of the same name. Which is Fantastic Planet. Lovely film by the way, Like this record.

[Inutero98541]

Yes, It was a huge inspiration actually. Ken and Greg had the poster overlooking them while they wrote. And I think Ken still keeps it in his bathroom.. Or maybe that was Greg. But the album is mostly about an addiction to opiates.

[Crimson1st]

Beautiful

[jsuka555]

@Inutero98541

glad you mentioned the opiates thing because this album is WAYYYY more dark than most people on you tube

seem to realize...........i saw therm in Seattle after the album dropped and live they killed it.

[marisanelsonmodeling]

@Crimson1st I hear that if you play the movie Fantastic Planet with the sound off, and turn ON the sound to the album Fantastic Planet, it matches up.

[siflrock]

@Crimson1st sure is. and there are sound clips from the movie throughout the album. i think the cover art is from something else tho

[wackiirahki]

"i'm never gonna push you out...cause you're not in." damn i miss this band.

[torgosassistant]

Yeah, why would I be ashamed of promoting my favorite web comic?

[chudwhacker]

beautiful guitar. kick ass band

[Blobin2413]

I like the band. I really like the covers in the tribute cd too.

[TheJayTrain]

Thanks for posting this. You rock.

[torgosassistant]

Thanks to the web-comic Questionable Content I have now been introduced to this and a few other fantastic bands. QC rules.

[flipmattic]

@torgosassistant

Funny, I too found about Failure from QC. Haha

[zerothedivine]

back in the nineties i checked this album out from the library and stupidly only listened to this track....i  didn't want to like the rest of the album because i didn't want to have to add to my 400+ collection of cds. this track brings back memories. so very and wonderfully nineties alternative.

[WherestheBeerInc]

Holy crap a guy who has the name Inutero? You must like love the same music as I do. Nirvana and Failure are awesome. Keep on ROCKIN!!!!!!

[fauxpasmusictube]

One of my favorite bands and albums from the 1990s. I saw them at the Rock Candy in Seattle during 1996 or 1997... I can't remember. I do remember that they sounded perfect.

[SonofJahbulon]

i just found this band out tonight and my mind is meltingggggggggggggggggggggggg­gg

[Inutero98541]

Listen to em stoned, It's even better brah.

No offence to any anti drug people.

[The0nlyDylanZizzo]

@Inutero98541

its hard to be anti drug, when our brains produce 'em.

[WherestheBeerInc]

Ya they do have some pretty weird stuff. They're really out there ya know. I love how the guitarists use an E tuning sometimes. It's sounds so cool.

[Inutero98541]

It's Eb tuning they use bro.

Just lettin ya know ;D

[risycat]

i no me too !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[emmajane897]

this song is my life

[rubyjay2006]

A fan of failure is a friend of mine

[vicmal2112]

@rubyjay2006 I'm your friend!!!!!

[uniquepisceque]

sorry for posting so much comments im just pissed off with the way things are now. im like the only person that listens to eccentric bands besides some of my friends but in a way its cool cause you feel that youre a rariety and everyone one else is a pig or a sheep whichever analogy you want to pick from trent reznor or maynard

[Inutero98541]

Haha, I understand bro. But hell, You can't be so close minded. You just gotta give it a chance.

[commanderfun06]

these guys are so underrated i love the fuck outta them

[Inutero98541]

I love the fuck out of you, baby.
