the video is crap? where are you looking? its like the kids riding through a timeline of life, like hes trying to get away from the hussle and bustle of life, and he eventually does at the end, the great escape
Man what a tune!! why arent they bigger??!! lol, aslo have you checked out Betamax?, here's another really good Chingford band, they all know each other, betamax and the rifles met at Redbridge Music College... check em! type "betamax- 99" its their FIRST single, its just been released on itunes and amazon. Its a great time to get into these boys. :)
why is everyone bitching about the video , since when did bands get rated on their videos to a point it affects what people think of them ? when there live your not going to see the video so stop crying about it .
maybe this sounds strange.. but somehow I seem to like it when bands aren't really big.. makes them less commercial or something ;o but I'll check out this band you're talking about. ;]
Yeah I looked up "Great music videos" and this came up. Wasn't sure about it when I clicked but have to say this was a good one. I enjoyed it. Great job.
Am I the only one who thinks that he's peadlin' for quite some time without getting tired? Anyway this vid has got an extremely good layout:D Good luck in the future!
they're such a great band, and they sell out all london gigs. It sucks that they never get any publicity and if they do its mostly 'heres another indie band' mand move on...
never bored to watch this video and listen to this song. watch out for the album, where there's another song called winter calls which blown me away with that johnny marr guitar style.. .
the best british band since oasis why theY have not been brought into mainstream i dont know these are what we want to hear not shitty american shite RIFLES FOREVER!!
I listen to this video every day, counting the days until this awesome CD finally comes out. The Rifles are as good as any other Brit band out there and hopefully the new CD will get them the appreciation they deserve. See you next time you're in NYC!
i agree with every1 here. the rifles are amazin but very underrated i fink we should bond 2gether n make them big so every1 else can njoy there talent
this song could be the killer track for 2009. It's just perfect. The album is great too, with another prodigious song like Winter Calls. The new year has started well.
listen right this aint football u dont like one band n hate n other u dont like peoples music u dont buy it ,,, simple as but this tune is simply amazing "in my opinion"
Hope 2009 is the year for the most under rated band ,, love this tune
The Rifles deserve to be freakin HUGE!!! Why aint they? They are the best band out there, Better than Oasis etc, They are as good if not better than Weller and they only get better and better!!
this is what the rifles are meant to be about, the new album is very much like they've just let in to the mainstream indie scene i.e. "sometimes" on the album, they sound like the courteeners in places (romeo and julie, and winter calls especially), they just havent been able to recreate the sound of their first album, this song, science in violence, and the general are the only songs which i feel shows what the rifles were and are about, a very underated band, better than the fuckin courtneers
spell it right The Courteeners, don't agree that there better but they are a good band, they just need more recognition in which the Courteeners got as they have a huge fan in Morrisey. Both Good Bands
i couldnt care if i spell it right, the courteeners ar shite, and btw morrissey is not a huge fan, he just went to a gig n said ur quite good, which baffles me. Anybody that says im a morrissey with strings, shouldnt be writing music, to me its just as bad as me saying i could play as good as johnny marr, liam fray is not morrissey, and in terms of whats came out of manchester musically, they're fuck all, the rifles ar better and deserve more credit than what the courteeners have ever recieved
well your just a nobed who doesnt appreciate a certain type of music, if i hat a band i don't go around slating them, until you know how to write lyrics and are in a band then you can't say fuck all about the courteeners to be fair.The Courteeners have a different type of fan-base but you don't have to go and fuck em off, i like the courteeners better than these but you don't here me calling them shit do you? Wanker.
i do know how to write lyrics and i am in a band nobhead, u butted in on my coversation, im entitled to my own opinion, i grew up listenin to proper bands like those in brit pop, and early rock n roll like beatles, led zeppelin, t-rex, and proper indie bands such as the libertines, strokes etc, new indie bands such as the courteeners ar just commercialised drivel, its like fuckin pop sometimes, im entitled to my own opinion, just cus u like the courteeners doesnt mean i cant voice my opinion
The courteeners received the credit because they went looking for it, and because their album is quality. I do agree that liam fray is not morrissey - but big stephen's been around for years, so give him time :p - k/o. The rifles are great and the courteeners are great - the rifles should get some recognition this year but honestly liam fray and the guys deserve what they get - quality album and class live, you cant ask for much more than that.
Absoloutely fantastic, love them. Makes you ill to think bands like the ting tings and razorlite are the most successful, its pure drivel. Here we've got the best bandin 25 years slipping through the net... this new stuff should get them the respect they deserve, the best band around.
