  • Mudhoney brought me here

  • I was part of an opening band for this band a few years ago

  • @GoingSomewher what is you band called? ill listen to it

  • @65awesomedude oh we only played a few shows and have no recordings but we were called the main st maniacs and the malcontents.... the malcontents were me and my brother cuz we werent 21

  • dude, thanks kurt for introducing me to some great music besides nirvana!

  • Whoever filmed this clip did an awesome job. I wonder if the sound was done through the camera as well?

  • One of the best riffs EVER x

  • Poster @ 0:00 Discharge!

  • Killer stage diving at 0:37

  • just love this shit

  • Mudhoney's cover of this song > Nirvana

    ...and Fang's version is obviously the best.

  • Dude,I can't fucking understand! Who's song is this?

  • @zveena  FANGS!

  • @zveena that song was by FANGVANAHONEY

  • Fucking brilliant

  • what the shit is this...

  • @DiabloMercy

    THIS.

    IS.

    PUNKKKK!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Fucking hell, i was subbed to a channel that had Fang-The money Will Roll right in, but only audio basically studio and that shit got Terminated by SST Records,Really are SST that picky i thought they promoted underground/Lesser known bands..

    Al tho the Live shit beats everything tho. 

  • se me hace que hay andaba kurt entre el pulico.... lol

  • f*** hollywood...

    

  • great song, great ass

  • someone might have said it before(?) but sammytown is the jim morrison of punk rock

  • Im a huge Nirvana fan, But Fang did do this better

  • @KeThDy Fang CREATED this shit, dude.

  • @bonopunk77 That's my point, I heard a lot of other Nirvana fans saying Nirvana's was better, but as a Nirvana fan I have to say no, it's not

  • @KeThDy

    i like kurts voice.

  • this is fucking awesome

  • good stuff. also check out FreeCowboyHats- "I Don't Care"

  • love the raw power of this song..Nirvana's cover is flawless but like this original too

  • wait! Kurt does rule bro

  • Even Kurt would tell all these guys to shut the fuck up! because he obviously like this band or he wouldn't cover the song....

  • this is FANG not nirvana!!!

  • Nirvana always playing covers and getting the credit!!

  • *wishes I was in that band*

  • 63 Munroe & Sheep Look Up London Ont Canada,,

    The Demics where also From The London area

  • both versions fucking OWNZ

  • WELCOME TO SAMMYTOWN!!!! FUCK OFF ABOUT NIRVANA FUCKERS  THIS IS FANG!

  • @snubbs741

    Good point, that's why these other guys got much better record label deals, played bigger venues, and had more fans than Nirvana... yeah right. Not to mention the amounts of money Nirvana made off of 1 album, is more than all of those punk band's earnings put together over their whole career. Hahaha what a joke, you silly fuck head! Nirvana rules, 20% because of Krist, 25% because of Dave and 55% because of Kurt.

  • @themad865 The singer of this band was in prison for murder when grunge got popular. So that can easily explain a lack of popularity in the early 90s. Besides dude, punk rock isn't about making money, it's about saying fuck you. So fuck you and your lame ass financial obsession.

    FANG!

  • Everyone chill the fuck out, all this music is dope, Nirvana, Fang, Grunge, Punk, we all stand for the same cause, so stop this hating on eachother and embrace the music :)

  • @AcousticLauson Couldn't agree more

  • @AcousticLauson couldn't agree more.

  • nirvanas cover is better. rofl

  • i saw fang at a place called the crypt in philly..i think it was a squat. people were literally climbing the walls and the whole place was a mosh pit. i miss those shows

  • come on hippies dont be hating on nirvana bunch of monkeys

  • Somebody told me these guys were a lot like Sick Pleasure. No fucking comparison. These cat's ain't bad, but no mutherfucker comes close to Nicki Sicki!

  • I just hope Nirvana had to pay Fang $10,000,000 for using their song.

    Cause they killed it.

  • seriously, my favorite band of ALL TIME.

    I used to see Fang about as often as I saw a fucking cop car, but Sammy & his gang from Alameda & the skins were the CREW!

  • seriously, my favorite band of ALL TIME.

    I used to see Fang about as often as I saw a fucking cop car, but Sammy & his gang from Alameda & the skins were the CREW!

  • you see, Kurt actually realized good punk. shit.

  • ok do not hate me for saying this but I got into alot of great bands thru Kurt Black Flag, Meat Puppets, Wipers, Pixies, Sonic Youth, Dinosaur Jr. , Wipers, Young Marble Giants, Mudhoney, Melvins , germs, Beat Happening, Vaselines & I like all of those bands more than I like NirvanaBlack Flag & Pixies are my two all time fav bands & Wipers is a close 3rd so no don't credit Kurt for inventing music like this but give him credit for bringing it to a much larger audiance

  • @crusheroftheist And you're kind of a comedic genius! Did you fuck my sister too!?

  • @crusheroftheist Actually, I'm 37 and have been going to gigs since I was 13. So yeah, I kinda was around back then dickface.

    And Fang STILL sucks.

  • lol he falls over at 2:02

  • I was brought here from the Mudhoney cover, not Nirvana.

  • real punk this real punk that FUCK YOU DUMBSHITS listen to the song

  • @rananim no offense, but that's the dumbest fucking question I have yet to read on the internet.

  • FUCK YEAH FANG, REAL FUCKING PUNK.

  • this is nothing but pure, unadulterated, pop music. i usually follow it with 'crazy in love' at my club nights.

  • Fang was totally weak, lame and corny and only got any recognition because their dickwad singer made being a complete degenerate loser into an art form. Play them next to NA, Poison Idea, AF, DRI or any other USHC band from the same era and they sound totally limp in comparison.

  • Great song but..question for diehard fang fans?Do they not think that Nirvana's performance of this song really showed how powerful this song could be?

  • i seen a couple times in the late 80 fang and di are playin in sacto on the 19 sammy is doin ok last time i saw him lookin old just like all us old schoolers

  • well there's nirvana-the so-called grunge, not really sure what actual genre it is.... whatever fuck labels but Fang: 'is' REAL PUNK

  • whoa cool. My last name is Fang. I kid you not, It's an asian last name. So awesome.

  • i always assumed this was just a nirvana song. this band seems cool though and i love all that flipper melvins shit anyway so i'll check em out further

  • FANG STILL rocks, sawem here in Denver a few months ago, as the Desciples too..good to see Slammy, Fang was the 1st band I ever played in 1981..lol...

  • Who cares how someone finds out about a band, chill out. Nothing comes from a vacuum; everything has influences.

  • Sad to say I know this song 'cos of the Mudhoney cover. Even sadder is that now I've heard the original, I can't find any of Fang's records to buy. :(

    Yes I said records. Mp3s are convenient and what have yer but it's just not the same.

    I'm old. :P

  • I am dumbfounded by the brilliance of this video! The stage diving is so pure and genuine! And the 1986 video quality cannot be beat!

  • THANKS for "Sharing" man!!

  • Sammy's lookin' Alot like BON SCOTT in this ONE!

  • Snubbs 741 easy man : ))))))))) Curt is you daddy : hahahahhahah : )

  • i just made a back patch that says "destrOi! the handicapped!"

    gonna go rock it outside of this disabled persons advocacy office we got in town.

    they make the government pay...

  • To think, in only 3 years time McBride would murder his girlfriend!

  • la più bella canzone punk della storia

  • fang is by far an ultimate real punk, unlike other shit out there. one of the greatest punk bands ever.

  • this rules

  • landshark ?

  • were are the original members ?

  • fuck yeah

  • Im in the front row with the bleach blond hair. That show was fucking awesome.

    Not as good as the Buttholes a few months befrore.

    djnotsogood

  • @djnotsohot The buttholes were the first band I ever saw/heard cover this song.Saw it live when Sammy was locked away.They played it as an encore,when the riff started I flipped...was fucking rad.

  • @deafcon4 God, that sounds awesome. Saw them several times in SF back in the day. One time, the fire marshall shut down the Mabuhey right before BHS was about to go on. So they took the show to some warehouse in SOMA and played there.

  • Comment removed

  • @Shali2707 fang didn't play that show - January 1986 - at the warehouse some douchbag spit beer at gibby and they shut it down..years later I dropped graphic stuff at that same space (on folsom I think)...best line "we will have many more shows at the mab, please leave quietly" ness aquino...

  • @bubba888cx I never said Fang played. I think Sea Hags opened. I was told (by Paul Rat I think) that the show was being shut down by the fire marshall. Not sure why they would go to all the trouble of moving the show to a warehouse because someone spit on Gibby.

  • @Shali2707 sorry man, misunderstood; the fire marshall shut down the 2nd of 2 shows that week, probably because of the huge crowd or something - I remember bottles flying and general chaos; the spitting incident happened at the warehouse

  • Comment removed

  • nirvana is best 4 me......

  • omg we listened to the landshark album in the 80's til it was worn out!

  • This song really makes me wanna respect women.

  • don't forget grundle

  • Sammytown to the biddies, on the panny sty.

  • fucking awesome

  • welcome to sammytown

  • holy shit AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!! great frontman

  • fuckin nirvana fans coming on all the fang, flipper, and melvins songs saying "omg kurt rules" and gay ass shit like that

    i like nirvana but fuck off this is fang

  • scrubsss

    i was about to be liek this niggas rite and then i read the name, did kartik kill you?

  • Comment removed

  • yeah it's really kinda sad that I, and many other people have heard of nirvana 'first' before fang and those other bands...

  • @snubbs741 Nirvana are legends. They got me into good music but mainly because they were the first proper band I ever heard xD Still love 'em but tbh they cannot beat real hardcore punk. Gotta 'ave respect for kurt tbh :') He introduced a lot of stupid little fags to hardcore.

  • @snubbs741 wouldn't you rather those "fucking nirvana fans" listen to fang,flipper and the melvins? kurt does rule. what's wrong with saying that. who cares. lol.

  • @roejogan8 uhh i dont care what they listen to but for their sake yeah i guess

    anyways id rather hear what people have to say about fang

  • @snubbs741 people usually check fang out because of nirvana or green day. that's just how it is. it's kind of a shame because fang is one of the best bands i've ever heard. they don't have 1 bad song. i can put on that landshark, where the wild things are compilation and listen from start to finish.

  • @snubbs741 idkanything about fang except for a handful of songs, what the connection to kurt?

  • @njlacrosse9 he listened to fang so a lot of people only know fang from being obsessed with nirvana.

    check out the sammytown documentary on youtube its pretty raw

  • @snubbs741 but Kurt does rule lol yea i agree with you

  • @snubbs741 i do the opposite

    

  • @snubbs741

    For realz

  • @snubbs741 Isnt krist in flipper?

  • @fluffyninjas he was but it wasnt that big of a deal

  • @snubbs741 This can be fang as much as u want it to be. It doesnt take away from the fact that Kurt Cobain truly rules and they did a fantastic version of this song

  • @PBANDSNOW whatever man I wrote that comment months ago get over it

  • @snubbs741 Get over what? that doesnt make any sense.

  • @snubbs741 Bro kurt dose rule,you suck

  • @yngvelives like i said one year ago "I like nirvana but fuck off this is fang"

  • @snubbs741 Fuckin' agree! THUMBS UP!

  • is Sam still alive?

  • Yes and Fang is together.

  • that`S Good

  • Fang's cool

  • Fang Rules! Slammy Rules!

  • Can't remember the singer's name, but fuck him. Its hard to enjoy Fang nowadays when you know there's a total piece of shit behind the mic.

    Still, great tune.

  • nirvana's version is better

  • there is always the guy who says that here. jesus its not true no one is pussy. this guy makes u a pussy too.

  • Mudhoney's version is. its way angrier

  • fuck you ;)

  • What the fuck are you talking about? Nirvana? \

  • LOVE THIS SONG!!! but he should have been in jail forever o.o

  • amazing!!

  • awesome!

  • land shark go

  • Saw them Tonight at Hells Kitchen in Tacoma,WA..AWESOME!!!C.F.A. also rocked it!!!Brought back a Ton of Skateboarding and Memories!

  • This is one of the best fucking songs ever. I LOVE TO BEAT PEOPLE UP AS THIS SONG PLAYS IN MY TWISTED MIND.

  • haha. me too.

    you might be kidding but im not. i did that once... got arrested that time :P

  • sooo good

  • ya i remember Special Forces  !

  • I LOVE IT

  • HAHAAHAH !!

    yeahh

  • ya black flag @ 16 & capp with free beer fck ups dez singing for flag or kieth cant remember drunk again sf punks rule thats why bands moved here not la

  • all you SF hardcoref*x,

    fang is the crap,

    my best bro toured with them in '84 vocalizing for Dr Know,

    my favourite skinbird left me for Sammy, alas she came back, but who the freak was that all black three piece that played at that one SF dive bar regularly?  I mean back then. I thought some of you here, might know what I'm talking about. A couple brothers and another.

    Always wondered...

  • bad ass song...i know this is gonna sound like a crazy comparison, but hear me out. the drums and guitar on this song sound A LOT like music on Static Age by The Misfits. just listen to "tv casualty" or "some kinda hate," i never really thought about it, but the sound of the studio recording of this song reminds me a bit of that album. Obviously glenn danzig's vocals have nothing in common with Fang.

  • ya ya seen metalica at ruthies thought they were a joke band with wigs on tried pulling off mustangs (i was drunk always ) ggallen last show at ruths punx rule

  • frist time i saw fang at la pena youth center berkeley this  brings back memories thanx

  • All of these videos have people arguing about him being a murderer.. he did his time, the past is past, leave it out of his music

  • No, Mudhoney didn't form until about 5 years after this song was recorded.

  • How could ya not like this?...Fucking excellent!

  • awesome fucking song

  • yeah pretty cool huh? yeah well i knew butthole surfers did but RTX does too? wow thats sweet!!!

  • In addition to nirvana another great band covered this...Mudhoney

  • fang is sick but can u believe that nirvana covers it? i found that intresting

  • Well, Kurt was really into Punk and Hardcore Punk. Punk Rock really influenced Nirvana and Kurt. Kurt hated being labeled as a "Grunge" band but as a Punk band. Btw, it's a good fucking song.

  • I met Joe (the bassist) and he told me that Kurt Cobain stayed with him for a few weeks at one point. I thought that was cool.

  • it makes sense. they liked to cover bands that they liked.

  • I was in a band called Misery Seed that used to cover this along with "I wanna be on TV" & "Landshark" 16-17 years ago! FANG fucking rules!!!

    Thanks for posting this!

  • Guitarist Tom Flynn is my hero! Best anarchic guitar ever.

  • Mudhoneys cover of this is good too, love this band!

  • same with nirvana

  • Yeah, totally agree, i LOVED Nirvana's cover of this, i'm sure there was a vid clip on Youtube somewhere of Mark Arm/Mudhoney frontman & Cobain/Nirv's both playing this track live together? can anyone remember it? xxxx RIP Cobain, may your soul finally rest in peace, you & your music will be remembered forever xxxx God bless you xxxx

  • yep its on here..not too hard to find...that version is awesome too
