MEAT PUPPETS / BACKWATER - Directed by Rocky Schenck

[MrMetalBreath]

Saw them at the Spirit Club in San Diego back in the day. They jammed a thrashy blend of country, punk, rock and blues. Check out their albums. They were way underrated. Great original band.

[inmotion86]

Good quality.

[agentsirus]

Mmmmm.... tastes like 90's.

[tigermilk808]

finally a version in stereo

[Betorockmetal]

Tha clown scares the hell of me

[cattleman82]

Boy does this take me back, I heard a ad on the radio that had 2 seconds of guitar that got me thinking of this song, I forgot who sang it and it took me a 1/2 hour to figure it out but now I can get to sleep since I heard it a couple times. In 15 years who will say that about today pop songs, at least there are some good rock songs comming out yet but still not the same as the good ole 90's

[blindriv3r]

very cool and unusual les paul, looks like it is one of these maple fretboard ones:

[celluloid3119]

Obligatory comment about how music was so much better in the 90's.

[Betorockmetal]

The clown is the key!!

[johnny891000]

with a knife to open 'disguised' veins

[MentalTeleprosy]

I hate all these lying sluts man. It's a good time.

[desertnerd]

[xde0mega]

[slarbiter]

video mustve been a bitch to make

[amberwandy]

im so happy that cobain didnt ruin this song too!!!

[steelfox1]

@teemunknee agreed... at least then it would take skill to be a musician

[ThatRoachBoy]

God, this song was stuck in my head for two days and I couldn't for the life of me remember what it was or who did it.

[thecookeyfiend]

songs like this just dont come around too often anymore it's sad. we still got these though

[tauburn5]

Tell me about it, bro.  Love the guitars starting at 1:49.

[bizarreria]

[66custom]

What happened to the video for the song "Get on Down"?

[DupekChopra]

Which is the one that went to prison?

[xgabex]

Bassist Cris was arrested in December 2003 for attacking a security guard at the main post office in downtown Phoenix, AZ with the guard's baton. The guard shot Kirkwood in the stomach at least twice during the melee, causing serious gunshot injuries requiring major surgery. Kirkwood was subsequently denied bail, the judge citing Kirkwood's previous drug arrests and parole violations. He eventually went to prison at the Arizona state prison in Florence, AZ for felony assault. wikipedia

[ashcan6]

Yes, but Chris is sober, healed, back in the Puppets where he belongs, and better than ever.  Nice real world ending.

[blindriv3r]

@ashcan6 yes, reminds me of how Neil Young wrote Needle and the Damage Done, before Danny Whitten's death.. at least here the 'bottoming out' experience wasn'f fatal...

[Kubilley]

Very good song

[thepaddywagonishere]

Cris is a Meathead! He deserved what he got!

[A18xOnDaTube]

Why doesnt anybody write songs like this anymore?

[idontknowdoyou]

They do you just have to digg very deep, past all the shit and you will find good songs.

[teemunknee]

Because nobody writes their own songs anymore...it's all producers and record label writers making other peoples music...

Music would be better if people could make their own music...

[pippigladstone]

@A18xOnDaTube cuz the 90s are over :(

[theenigmajjames]

@A18xOnDaTube because too many record companies are paying people that have little to no talent for bubble gum pop bullshit that no one will care about in 5 years. I mean can you really see someone saying "Man. remember that song by Kesha, what a classic great song." I dont think so. But real music like this, people are still talking about and listening to. And will be even 20 years from now. But the Kesha's and Bieber's of the world no one will care about anymore. Flash in the pan, thats it

[IansMadWorld888]

@theenigmajjames people still talk about Madonna and Britney Spears, not all pop artists are easily forgettable 

[theenigmajjames]

@IansMadWorld888 Well I personally don't care much for Madonna or Britney, but they at least have real talent. The ones I was referring to are the ones that don't have even the slightest talent, that have producers and others writing there music and lyrics. Like Myley Cyrus and Justin Bieber and especially Kesha. That girl is the absolute worst. I just can't stand talentless, pointless, soulless shit that some refer to as music.

[IansMadWorld888]

@theenigmajjames Kesha and Miley are annoying, Beiber actually worked his way up to become what he has, he deserves to be a pop star, but thats not really saying much, haha

[FlyingBurritoMan]

Fucking AWESOOOOOOOME!

[girlbassist]

You mean the other one where you can't even hear the lead guitar?

[albert310783]

I remember when they play with kurt cobain

in the nirvana's mtv unplugged

it was amazing

yeeaaaaa!!!, you know esee?!!

[zapproowsdower]

HELL yeah. man, that is one of the best albums ever. One of those 'if you were on a desert island and had to choose 3 albums' things. that would be one of em hands down.

[DopeGanstaBlingBling]

Not to be cliche, but this song changed my life.

[Zaknrfamaa]

LOL

[albert310783]

totaly agree with you

[bendito103]

[distillersdemon]

Wow, I never knew they made a video for this song. Cool.
