Matt Skiba (ALKALINE TRIO) "ASTRO ZOMBIES"

[LessThanNOFX]

Matt Skiba is the man. Everyone stfu

[CountDruckula]

MATT SKIBA IS BETTER THAN YOU!

[jamesbullet55]

Matt Skiba can do what the fuck he wants. He's matt skiba! (Coming from a HUGE misfits and Alkaline trio fan)

[jlong390]

MELVIN!

[sailorxlee]

SING WHAT YOU WANT TO SING MATT!!!!

Y'all just jealous ;) Besides... Who wouldn't be?

[VignetteCigarette]

Shut UP I LOVE him.

[HavockdeLimaPeru]

faster faster faster

[7midgetmac]

drummer is sloppy...

[n3crocannibal]

fucking faggot should learn the damn song before he sings it. fuck this band anyways

[jamesbullet55]

@n3crocannibal fuck this band? This isn't a band. Just skiba singing with other musicians.

[n3crocannibal]

@jamesbullet55 how does that not make this a band? a band is a group of people playing music together. it may not be alkaline trio or whatever the fuck hes in but its still a band

[281Blinker]

@n3crocannibal Okay then, a one off supergroup ...

[QBall316]

I love Alkaline Trio but this is terrible, if you're gonna do a cover at least get the lyrics right...

[jasequel]

No its not dan and derek its eric melvin from NOFX on one guitar and greg hetson from bad religion and circle jerks on the other one and dont recognize drummer and bassist but sure they from some other cool bands too. Punk rock all-stars dickhead.

[MyRetroCareerMelted]

Why is everybody hating on Matt?! Even though he gets some of the words wrong his voice is really, REALLY,**REALLY** amazing, and I think he did a great job! Don't be a pathetic jackass and just say "how much it sucks" (because it doesn't!!) because it just makes you seem like an asshole. :)

[bloodbathbassist]

he dont even no the words

[EmiKawaiiz]

this is great i love it x3

[jenne2h]

he sucks. they suck. this is terrible

[HazyShadows]

@jenne2h

Correct me if I'm wrong, but that doesn't look like Dan and Derek playing with him, so this isn't actually the Alkaline Trio - just Matt. Couple that with the fact that he's singing someone else's song and, well, I can't be too critical.

[BIeeder]

0:58 Matt wears pink underwears :3

I like it. :D

[alk3oholic]

People, seriously? Okay?

Covers aren't supposed to be carbon copies of the original, so what if he fucked up a few words, it still sounds great. This is the version I learned, and this is the version I like singing and hearing.

Oh and by the way, is there an MP3 to this?

[KatamariSings]

LEAVE MATT ALONE!!! OR I WILL KICK YOU SQUA IN THE NUTS!!

[DarkDizzle845]

Ryan Reynolds holding down the drums.

[bitslip1]

@DarkDizzle845 Fuck yeah dude.

[KatamariSings]

Did anyone else just get an orgasm?

[TheRyryramone]

How Does he not know the words to this Song.

[60SecondAssassin1]

He sure is no Glenn Danzig :(

[zakkattk]

@60SecondAssassin1 he is better!

[zakkattk]

@60SecondAssassin1 he is better!



[mot19]

rofl i wonder how faded matt skiba was while singing this.

[jrack13]

Kris Roe>Skiba

[HarshVibes1980]

get the words right donk.

[loserkittie]

who the fuck is playing guitar? and who the fuck is drumming? thats not derek and this is not alkaline trio or heavens...

guess noone else noticed?

[metaller8]

@loserkittie I think the title says Matt Skiba because it's Matt Skiba with Punk Rock Karaoke.

[rygza]

@loserkittie melvin from nofx?

[TWM2975]

@loserkittie guitars - Greg Hetson (Redd Kross, Circle Jerks, Bad Religion) and Eric Melvin (NoFx) on guitars; Steve Soto (Agent Orange, Adolescents) on bass; Derek O'Brien (Social Distortion, D.I., Agent Orange, Adolescents) on drums.

[kylewagoner]

Awww, Melvin broke a string...and this contains notes higher than anything I've heard Skiba sing before, I think.

[seckkk]

little gay

[jesselikesfunnyvideo]

@inhercasket13, you're a fucking idiot. matt skiba's bullshiting though astro zombies? gtfo noob.

[frosty2010]

at 1:05 some pervo grabs that poor guy's taint

[ccchaisson13]

great cover

[rancid247]

This is punk rock karaoke! Not a planned performance. The band has a list of songs they know and people sign up to sing. They perform at a lot of events.

[darthmango]

Rockin' cover I dig it.

[TikiDevil9]

@yankees9868 Don't jump the gun on your assumptions. I'm hardly a kid at 39 years old and have been playing in punk rock bands since high school; going to shows since around 1983. No, I don't listen to MCR or any of that garbage. In fact, my rhythm guitarist, George D., is pretty good friends with Jerry Only of the Misfits and The Queers covered a song I wrote (Another Girl) on their album "Don't Back Down." Poser? Retard.

Again, this video is garbage.

[LizEvil]

@TikiDevil9 Dude I love that song from that Queers album!

[TrapXI]

@TikiDevil9 not a poser? so, just a spiteful old bitch, then. 

[TikiDevil9]

@TrapXI Or just plain honest. Apparently, some just can't handle the truth. Not my problem.

[screamingvictory]

ERIC MELVIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Kroataaaa]

who thinks this is worse than mcr version is a fuckin moron.

skiba is the man

[jagreber]

gaeeeeeeeeee

[beano311]

lol, pretty good Danzig vocals Skiba

[themopass]

Matt Skiba, Greg Hetson, Eric Melvin, the bassist from The Adolescents... where is the drummer from

[CURKLP1T]

@themopass its matt skiba, greg hetson, eric melvin, joe soto and the drummer from the adolecents.

[TikiDevil9]

Wow. This is terrible.

[yankees9868]

@TikiDevil9 your probaly a poser kid who has no life and thinks there punk when they listen to mcr and those faggot ass bands and thinks saying something amazing is terriable makes you cool.. but whatever its your opinion

[FHartgrave]

WTF? He clearly only knows 50% of the lyrics...

[ImmortalIggy]

wtf are with his lyrics hes no misfits fan if he doesnt know the lyrics to astrozombies wtf

[CURKLP1T]

@ImmortalIggy he knows the damn lyrics. even glenns ass mumbled the words....too every song the misfits produced.

[OneTinSoldier11]

eric melvin and greg hetson on guitar.....matt skiba singing......i love the original...but i think this beats it by pure line up hahahaha

[dmon715]

this is kickass

[antimade2007]

eric melvin!

[pandora0987]

i thought mcr covers this song horrible but mcr better slap the fuck out this guy

[Bartol1995]

THIS IS FUCKING BAD, THATS NOT MISFITS !!

[Shirobon223]

This is an insult

MCR's is at least somewhat decent

[drpkick82]

wtf are you guys talking about? this fucking sucks!

[MrSodaBelly]

lyrics wrong but great voice

[dethbed77]

Matt...get the lyrics right...tut tut

[AnthonyJTa]

Dillionneal... 1:10, sounds like he says "face drops in a pile of face"?! I'm not trying to question his 'fandom' or anything, it's a fun cover and all.... but hey, that's f*ckin punk, right?

[jujusnightout]

niiice!

[Dillonneal07]

Trust me he knows the song, the band is huge misfits fans.

[DartTarget]

but does he know the words, or is it because he's really really drunk...

[AnthonyJTa]

It'd be nice if Skiba knew the words... Some fan

[javiero195]

jaja

fat mike and melvin

[MSNGR415]

oh man my drunk neighbor covers misfits tunes better than this. i agree danzig has a distinctive voice...not that easy to cover.

[leftovervictim23]

is that eric melvin in the background?

[brotherwanky12]

@leftovervictim23 holy shit that is melvin!!!!!!!

[leftovervictim23]

actually i think this is punk rock kareoke wich is a band that does all covers.

[koziolklan]

fuuuuck yeah!!!

[batboy420494]

danzig was so unique and that makes it really hard to cover and i think he did a good job

[necroaeon]

im seriously convinced skiiba intentionally messed up the lyrics.... idk y

[Tommyrage13]

@necroaeon Your forgetting one thing.... Skiba fucks up his own lyrics on a pretty regular basis. And with how drunk he is up there, i am surprised he can speak, much less sing. The fact that he remembers any of the words is pure luck.

[CosmicDestroyer99]

@Tommyrage13 Alot of vocalists fuck up there lyrics it's not that uncommon

[zachwulderk]

had he not been wasted, this would be great.

[brvandal]

people who are fans of the misfits & alkaline trio either loves this or hates it.

[undertakerv2]

fuck this dude

[paytofunteck]

kill him

[333GenericFeeling333]

i love me some matt skiba, but he did kinda get the lyrics wrong. oh well, best song ever.

[petgenius]

'tis strange seeing Skiba without his guitar I must say

[tjgjantopnotch]

NICE!!

[mpplaysguitar]

he sang it well, but got a few lyrics wrong

[mikety1]

did he get one lyric correct? slsolklsls nsns all i want lskdkdkss exterminate sl.sllss

[OldPeopleOrgy]

this is soooooo fuckin goooooooddd

[davenewburg]

also, this is punk rock kareoke, not a legit cover.

[davenewburg]

ambitions has a sweet cover of it

[slayking666]

this aint a great cover, best ones r mcr and pennywise, and i dont care what anyone else says, the mcr version rocks

[ISawBonez]

i fookin heart it! It's a cover.... take it for what it is

[jeffbahh]

Do you guys really think he did bad? I mean he just sounded like Matt Skiba singing Astro Zombies. I hate fags like you people who say shit like "he killed the song."

[Jerich0h0lic]

Don't get me wrong...Some of Alkaline Trio's stuff is really great...But this cover sucks. His voice doesn't fit the song (...and NOT just because he doesn't sound like Danzig!) and he messes up more words than he gets right...

[tabbaschy]

the most idiot fag i've ever seen! you fucked up the original song of the misfits ! lala'i want=)))) humhumtouch=))))))) fuck off! piss off and in romanian now,,bagami-as pula in talentu tau de tot cacatul.esti cel mai mare ratat" not the quite translation but...nevermind

[dmon715]

wow, you need to calm down pal.

its just a song, its just a cover. Grow up and take care.

Your Friend,

Dylan.

[TaeGaruma34]

he got so many words wrong but good job nonetheless

[InHerCasket13]

not judging the guy by any means...but it seems as if he doesn't know the song or he kinda does just enough to bullshit through it

[sexmeup8]

this is pretty cool

[rancid247]

@InHerCasket13 It's punk rock karaoke, cut him some slack

[cheese102]

He got all the words wrong

[karma3fold]

This is actually a band called Punk Rock Karaoke Featuring -Eric Melvin(NOFX)Guitar, Greg Hetson(Bad Religion,Circle Jerks)Guitar, Derek O'Brien(Social Distortion,Adolescents,DI,Agen­t Orange)Drums, Steve Soto(Adolescents,Agent Orange,22 Jacks)Bass. The often have guest singers like Matt Skiba, Dave King(Flogging Molly), Joey Cape(Lagwagon), Mike McColgan (Street Dogs, DKM).

[DopeSick408]

Haha Melvin wearin a suit

[angelcozofyou]

it sounds awesome

although he sounds like he's saying "playm" directive O.o

[DARKWARPINC]

the guitarist that's balled is mr. greg hetson, from bad religion

probaly one of the underated punk guitarists of all time

[L2live111]

But listen to alkaline trio greatest fuckin band ever dnt judge on this poor cover

[kevintheseacucumber]

this is an awsum cover in my eyes

[xxxvampirejesusxxx]

hahaha, he's drunk.

[JanWarman]

does anyone know who the drummer and the bassist are

[rd12891]

before u guys talk its a cover song....and matt skiba is the shit why dont u listen to his stuff and find out who he is before talking...

[smokingbandit67]

its kind of pathetic that these guys are american, sing like they don't speak english and have no energy when singing misfits songs.

such a shame.

I'm very proud of American bands, take misfits, metallica, megadeth, slayer, anthrax, such great bands.

Seeing this makes me throw up a little in my mouth.

[tokilladay]

in the verses he's just singing noises

boo

[SkateTVOnline]

hey , isnt this the misfits?

[lanternofice666]

to skatetvoline

its a misfits cover

[PunkInDrublic77]

WOW! It's Eric Melvin! And he's wearing a shirt!!! OMG!

[TheradiomanofYT]

I KNOW!! I was going to say the same thing!

[thecrowing07]

WTF!? HETSON 1:40!!!

[jsquid77]

Punk rock karaoke .. Hetson(circle/BR), Melvin(nofx), the dude form manic hispanic and sociald.

[kissmeiamdumb]

i think the other guitarist is zach blair from rise against/gwar and eric sandin also from nofx

but then again i could be mistaken

[BooDontFront]

the only mistake i heard was on the first chorus he said all i wanna do twice rather than all i wanna say and all i gotta do so ease up matt has been an avid misfits fan longer than most of you have had pubes

[pmills89]

plime delective!, lol wtf did he say that!

[YoyoyankeesfromRS]

yea i think so lol. b4 he performs, he should learn the words lol

[PYR0XXX]

I second that. wtf

[Dave7695]

this is hilarious

[TSBASSIST]

is that the guitarist from bad religion at 1:40? and it looks like he's playing with melvin from nofx

[conxtantine]

yeah he is .. the other guy with melvin might be nufan's guitar player or .. wait .. it could be anyone in the world lol ..

[Vampira321]

i like skiba but he is really bad at misfits :( learn the lyrics first

oh well.. still like him

[OhhCrap90]

personally, I don't like his voice at all. the original and the mcr cover is way better than this crap.

[Rafa88offspring]

this is punk rock karaoke right?

[thk5150]

Yup

[PolarOpposites12]

he looks so awkward without a guitar in front of him

[bleeder88]

its better than the mcr version, now that was an insult.

[punker333]

mcr's version was a disgrace to the misfits

[asslesschap182]

@bleeder88 atleast gerard way sounded like he knew the words

[bleeder88]

@asslesschap182 gerard way wasnt singin it live after more than a few drinks was he

[zilcho666]

@asslesschap182 matt skiba doesnt even sing the right words to his own songs most of the time :)

[Gamer21Films]

@zilcho666 So what if he improvs on stage most of the time its his songs so he may do what he wants to them

[zilcho666]

@Gamer21Films i didn't mean it as a bad thing, i was just saying it to the people who were complaining about him singing afew wrong words in this song. I think alk3 are amazing live and i like it when Skiba changes lyrics or adds them in.

[matthunsberger]

he's a great artist, personally one of my heros. He should have totally learned the lyrics better, plus i dont really think his voice is right to cover the misfits.

[RickyxXxRicky]

i agree

matt skiba is my inspiration

[sullivan28779]

fuck this guy

[gateprofeten]

What a fucking insult to the original

[causeofmyanger]

what a hater

[PolarOpposites12]

i agree

[mikeyhbum]

really though, he shoulda learned the lyrics. just that kinda makes him look like a tool. love alkaline trio, but i calls um as i sees um

[ekserchina]

Anyone interested in a Matt Skiba signature GPC guitar with original case? I'm selling one. There were only 100 made. Research it and you'll see that it is a fact.

[RickyxXxRicky]

i'm interested

message me with details?

[OneManArmy1421]

should have studied the lyrics booklet a little more closely there Matt!

[IrrIsponsible]

he sounds great, but boy he fucked up the lyrics

[causeofmyanger]

much agreed

so he had an off night

fuck it, he's still a great artist

[Spartan535]

This is def my favorite Misfits song. ALK3 is one of my favorite bands and Matt Skiba is a great singer, but he really shoulda learned the lyrics before he sang this song.

"Prime Directive: EXTERMINATE the whole human race."

[alkalinetriobabe420]

i love this !

[Iccullus]

I love your name! =D

[shadylurker138]

He has a great voice

[Mattmoo36]

Bad Religion meets Alkaline Trio and NOFX. Thank you Misfits.

[rabidhippo5]

you forgot the adolescents

[lukedemers]

and technically circle jerks as well cause greg hetson was from circle jerks

[msdeadinside]

eric melvin is totally laughing the whole time.

[Mattmoo36]

lol nice. Cant wait 4 NOFX this summer. They're back on Warped.

[4milpesos]

hes totally laughing the whole time thanks to PCP!!! : )

[RockIforILyfe]

[AWESOM094]

FUCK YEAH

[misfitsfiend307]

[screamstereoscream]

THAT IS NOT AN MCR SONG!!!!!!

[blacktimberline]

it's a misfits cover retard

[sirensNmyhead]

idiot.

[00frankenphilrocks00]

wow.

[tuserasgoliat]

the band is Punk Rock Karaoke, with Greg Hetson and Eric Melvin

[blacktimberline]

who is matt skiba with?

[clienhart]

Alkaline Trio

[blacktimberline]

they don't look like grant and dan :/

[Kayluh140]

lol nope

[aussiedan1275]

Just want to say; Fat Mike, the punk legend, ALSO messed up the Misfits song 'Halloween' when he got to sing on stage live with them.

Give Skiba a break. He still belted it out with passion.
