[JSDuncan2113]

chills at 1:39

[caseyjwhite]

i wanna dance with her!!!

[schmirk2]

3:54 Was that a quick BO check by marc?

[olly2300a]

wuts the other song she sings before "the fire song"

[ChewyTutorials]

@olly2300a its an excerpt from one of their earlier songs called "like a book" on their acoustic ep

[banksy7300]

@olly2300a its a kind of intro they do when playing it live im almost sure

[wakeuptomusic]

they need to go on tour with regina spektor. regina's voice and gen's voice in one concert would be absolutely phenomenal.

[flickerchocho]

Love Them! :D <3

[banksy7300]

this song provokes positive vibes EVERY time. Guaranteed.

[FuzzyLump10]

I idolize her stage presence. I tried to sing in a band but I was never loud enough for them. And I never knew what to do on stage. Not for me I guess. But she is just as much fun to watch as she is to listen to. They're awesome.

[mazsenior]

Nice stripped down sound, and such an honest voice. There's hope for music after all. Go CoT's!

[gennarationfriedance]

I LOVE the way she MOVES!

[xxRonBurgandyxx]

i have fallen madly in love.....will you marry me pretty voice lady

[AbiROAR]

Genevieve looks like my little sister. Beautiful! :)

I love the quality of this video, there have been many posted where we cannot understand the music, due to the quality. I'm glad to hear one clearly. :D

[depaul05]

I never get tired of this song... sigh. Please book more Chicago gigs. I miss the live performances!

[fallennvamp]

You guys are amazin I saw u at moutain jam and fell In love!!!!

[dizzy5star]

My fav song by them... seen them live they are truly amazin!!!

[xXxNOAHNATORxXx]

Agreed

[LuvinGreenDay09]

If its a small performance do they do a meet and greet type thing?

[dizzy5star]

Yeah.. It was like a bar/lounge and afterwards they hung out by the bar and took pix and signed autographs.. I got genevieve and mark to sign my shirt..they're kool as shit

[BanditSatellite]

great!

[BurnPaperMoon]

They are an absolutely amazing band. They make me want to drop everything I'm doing to drive however long it takes to get to a show every time they post a new one. I'm pretty positive no other band could make me do that. This video rocks! Lovely quality.

[Dizzle910]

What is the song that she's singing at the very beginning of this video?

[ridgerunnerpro]

This is one of my favorite video ever!

[ridgerunnerpro]

I can't stop watching this video the song is so fucking awesome and she is a very sexy and talented singer.

[terpfan80]

The focus should be on the amazing talent she has (see 3:30 to end) - not her ass!

[wheretoshit101]

i think we should be able to appreciate both :) oh does any1 know the song she is singing b4 the fire song?

[BTARD4LIFE]

my friend says you get a nice view of her ass in this video. anyone know the timestamp?

[CuduSassy]

I want to see them D: I wish I could have gone to the New Orleans show.

[jmckithern0]

saw them last nigh in new orleans and they were amazing!!!

[o6amanda88]

me too! it was awesome :)

[StevenMcMillian]

in love

[rstinejr]

Genevieve Schatz is cute as can be, but I really  miss the wonderfully chunky guitar part that's on the studio version of this song.

[gobiballer]

she looks very pretty in this

[broadway520]

Further motivation for me to attend University of Illinois. That and Ebertfest.

[Dead111Beat]

at the beginning she sounds like Bjork. :0

[vampiregal16rulz]

it sounds like shes singing a diff song in the very begining, is she is what is it?

[fredred000]

Whats the tunning of the guitar? Anyone knows? I can only figure out that its DAD but the rest I cant. Thanks

[Jazzyteach65]

if I had to choose "rock" music to listen to-it'd be this

[vampiregal16rulz]

this isn't rock, it's alternative, its deff not all the same pace, but its deff not rock, if u wanna call it rock put alternative in front of it. not to be mean though

[modeler2us]

Keep the emotion the priority.

[g00nie5]

Great band and my god is their vocalist beautiful.

[Helena311]

i love how she is like in her own world... beautiful song!

[voxdoc11]

Seriously, you should come to SC preferably Charleston, but my budget will allow me travel a little ways.

Please, come, and come soon!

[sauceapplecrosscriss]

an amazing band.

[AisforAdam1]

3:30-3:50.. Ummm, yeah.. I'm in love!

[jscharpf]

you ain't kidding :)

[ISIAIMI]

Esta banda es MUY buena.

Pero por sobre todo me gusta el culo de la minita.

[ak40kevn]

ha YOU GUYS ARE FAGS HAHAHA

[Aqisuary]

Bloody hell please come to Singapore...even though it's at the other side of the world.

[jeaniebett]

Thsi band and that girl are amazing. I like Bjork, but lay off the Bjork comaparison and let her go on!!

[thepassanger]

i compared her to bjork in another of their songs, apologies, in even in the dark acoustic.

i agree that they are amazing, i hope they get the love they deserve!

[clutch1245]

I love this girl. Her voice, songwriting, mannerisms. Very endearing.

[DrLight9]

< bjork. pretty lovely though.

[magidc1324]

It is a forte symbol tattooed on her arm. heard it directly from her.

[WhateverWereClever]

Dude the guitarist is sick. If you guys read this you're fucking dirty. I hope you become extremely famous. Come to philly

[DNAngela]

Good stage presence.

[znshomaru]

most the youth where i live listen to death core and i live in southern missouri lol

[clutch1245]

hot singer is hot

[HIPandiDONTmeanHOP]

Shes pretty, and a great vocalist, but somebody needs to remind the unfortunately all too easily influenced youth of amreica that "indy" music is really boring...

[ackooks]

HIPandiDONTmeanHOP

wtf are you talking about indie is the shit

get the fuck outa here

the jonas brothers are boring

all disney music is pretty much the same

so is hip hop

all they talk about is how much more money they have than you

those are the two genres the youth is into today and its quite a shame

[HIPandiDONTmeanHOP]

What do the jonas brothers or hip hop have to do with the fact that indy music is boring? Sure indy in some cases is better than the aforementioned In all genres of music, including indy, you will find genuine talent and sincere purposful meaning. But lets face it, you indy kids are usually quite arrogant and tend to have that artsy fartsy pompousness, almost seeming to believe you are more sophisticated than the rest of the music world.

[HIPandiDONTmeanHOP]

I, however, find that you guys tend to cling to a very prescribed style of attire and have no more of a unique personal identity than these silly "hip hop" guys hiding behind thier "bling, or "ice". You, instead, wear you're "geek" glasses, and knit hats, and v-neck tees, and pre-faded, pre-tattered jeans.

[HIPandiDONTmeanHOP]

Also, i find it both humorous and ironic that in your defense against my verbal attack on indy, you compare it with the likes of pre-pubescent "disney" music, and the phoniest and most intellectually devoid of all things known to man; commercial hip hop music... Even i would've compared your indy to a higher calibur than that...

[wirsindhelden0]

haha ok good point, and i do agree with you...but there is obviously a large mass of 'all too easily influenced youth...' who doesn't think so!!

[HIPandiDONTmeanHOP]

I certainly expected a response to my comment, but i never imagined such open mindedness. Now i'm confused...

P.S. I watched your video, you are an incedible vocalist, and if i'm not mistaken it appears you are also playind the piano part. Very impressive.

P.P.S. Next time you film however, have the main lightsource in front, not behind you. Peace...

[ackooks]

damn dude im sorry if you took it so seriously. but lets get one thing straight i dont dress like a typical indie kid. its spelled indie as in independent. and damn dude do something other than bother kids on the fucking internet. im not arrogant and im sorry if i come off like that and also indie is the shit man. listen to john frusciantes solo work. unreachable off his new album the emperyan is fucking gold made by a fucking genius and you still think its shit.

[ackooks]

and how open minded are you. you only think that indie is just treble filled rock. indie means that its made by independant artists and that the labels they are signed to only distribute the music and dont alter( ruin ) it in any way whatsoever. so indie can be rock rap blues jazz or any other genre even pop you dumb fuck. why dont you go make your own music if all you have to do for fun is post comments on videos you dont like. next time get therapy before signing on all angry. ignorant shit

[BiscuitsJoe]

does she have an f-hole tattoo under her arm?

[wirsindhelden0]

i'm pretty sure that's a forte symbol...which is great!

[BiscuitsJoe]

eh potato tomato

[wirsindhelden0]

hahaha

[tallhat]

to* bash the band, sorry

[tallhat]

i've listened to the whole album and i believe her voice is to good for this band i really do, not the bash the band i love c.o.t.

[RBRallyBG]

lol

[lumberjackninja8]

oh my god. she is gorgeous. and the music...

[OnyxGhost18]

Lol her name is Genevieve Schatz, she is really beautiful, and i'm not afraid to admit that she's like my first celebrity crush lol...

[gloverman33]

not only her facial features are pretty and not only is her voice pretty but her facial features and voice combined are pretty

[themaizeandblue]

how do you pronounce her last name?

[wirsindhelden0]

it's like SH-AH-TS

[maryjoe58]

The sound on this video sucks. But the band and singer are great. Who is she?

[AisforAdam1]

3:30-3:50 she is smokin hot!!

[gloverman33]

her voice is her instrument and she plays it well!

[spaceb3011]

[xXxNOAHNATORxXx]

SHE IS AS LOVELY AS A DOVE.

[smm565601sm]

Wow You guys are amazing!!!!

Beautiful voice!!!!!!!!!!!

[amarr1]

love this.

[discoax12]

what's the song bout anyways?

[lexlou45]

I LOVE THIS SONG!!!!!

[JohnRock220]

It's fucked up how Dorian Duffy didn't get any goddamn credit for his amazing and underrated basslines.

[ZombiePosessor]

I know! His basslines are AMAZING! Its so hard to find a band that utilizes bass as a bass should be used. As its own instrument, and not just "Hey follow along w/ the guitar and do nothing but the same rhythm over and over again"

[JohnRock220]

I completely agree. It's a tone and a sound all it's own, you know?

[asianmatt2012]

She has such an amazing voice, and she's really pretty.

[GodBrittSatan]

definitely a bjork influenced voice

[sombrasul]

That was good

[dustinpearlman]

Favorite song on the album...

[ZombiePosessor]

Hell yeah, you guys are the best. This and The Tornado Song are my favorites. From WV with love.

[johnnymacmanus]

Holy shit, someone else in WV who has heard of and actually likes CoT. I thought I was alone, lol.

[ZombiePosessor]

Hell yeah! Where are you in WV? This band needs more love spread around the state. I'm in Parkersburg, maybe sometime we could get a street team going or something, or hang out and listen to CoT.

[johnnymacmanus]

I'm in Charleston. Street team sounds awesome!

[chronology27]

omg ppl in WV that listen to CoT O.O

I live there too xD

Huntington for me ^.^

[johnnymacmanus]

Haha! Sweet! More people should listen to them!

[xxLondonandFogxx]

That's crazy! I'm in Marietta, OH so we're all practically neighbors.

[kibbles010]

I love the song..... but it could have been a little louder.

[depaul05]

Probably my favorite on the record.

[weatherXman]

this is so far my fave song of them!!!

LOVE IT!

thanks for the vid

[RedCapedKnight]

Would love them to come to Wisconsin. But if I have to I will drive to Chicago to see them, it would be well worth it.

[Aliaschickita47]

there's a show soon, like next week, just btw lol

(if you didn't know)

[olynthos1]

Really good music guys. Stay authentic.

N.

[Tashi0106]

awesome, the guitarist is quite talented

[romero1981]

Take some more LSD!

[blureef]

I can't stop watching this... :D

[hamek11]

rly nice voice, song too

[Merdenoms]

She really likes that silver headband. She had it on in the oscar wilde video.

[BetsyRuss]

What an amazing voice! Yes, a bit Bjork-ish, but perhaps a bit warmer and more consistent. This girl's voice is like a warm blanket.

[sauceapplecrosscriss]

Bjork is awesome.

i like the way they dance to tha music ^_^

[ksbigler]

Best song on the album

[msmelendez]

wow shes a really good singer

[Aftershock770077]

i love u dawg

[pandapolar1]

What the crap?! I found this band yesterday, and have already bought the album and am in love. I go to this school and didn't know they came by! I wish I would have known about them sooner so I could have gone.

[mwilliams333]

she sounds exactly like bjork

[imakemixes]

im from iceland and i say björk is a n00blet

[julhynes]

First thing I thought, too -- she totally sounds like Bjork!

[RavenFilms2727]

YES!! COME TO DC!!

[foxtrottwoalpha]

You guys truly amazing, I was so lucky to have seen you there live. Didn't know about you guys before this show, but CoT blew me away! Amazing, and nothing short of it.

[blckjade05]

but then we remembered, no one cares what you think bud.

[cbrett375]

do you know if this group has any more songs and does anyone know where you can buy one of their cds? also what kinda music is this classified as (no yealling what it is)

[XiloZ9]

I would love you guys to come to DC... you make some GREAT music :-)

[emmz4life1]

love ya guys your one of my 2 fav bands :) i saw ya guys when you came to Ohio w/ my dad's side of the family i loved it :)

[drumschlag]

I'm gonna come see you guys when you come to Boston. If you need a place to crash while you're here, my living room floor is available. =)

[cory31688]

I was there and it was awesome. I Was not expecting this much talent. I bought the album without hesitation.

[eddiemcgregory]

Wow! You guys killed with this song. Wish I coulda been there!

[themilkypirate11]
