  • awsome indie..)

  • whats the name of the song!!??

  • @payification In one ear

  • WOOOOO CAGE THE ELEPHANT FTW

  • I bet he does do alot of drugs, lol, look at him his fucking mad. but thats what makes a good band. 

  • dig his gangsta moves haha <3

  • I like the band but I gotta say that they do sound very different from the album.

  • @Fomas5932 it's because he can't keep still while singing.

  • I CAN'T BELIEVE I MISSED THIS ONE!!!!! :<

  • band may be great but in this vid its sounds like either an english guy doin shit impression or him takin piss out english

  • ahahah i luv the fact that these guys rock out the whole time and that matt doesntgive a fuck bout wat hes doing and jared has no shoes lol this is real music

  • I love Cage the Elephant, but not this D:

  • Comment removed

  • Licy123 is a douche-bag. Plain & simple.

    And thats all I gotta say about dat...

  • great band..but this performance is a little bad.. juuuuuust a little bit.. singers voice i awesome, but it seems like it's a little hard to sing that fast..

  • blonde hair? -looks much better now

    unfortunately voice always sounds a bit screwed up live...but they are rocking the shit out of this show!!

  • This band sucks. The singer looks like a fucking dingbat.

  • @licy123 You know where that went? Through one ear, and right out the other.

  • @MrWhatnow101 Obviously not, considering you commented on it?

  • @licy123 Considering the fact that I don't give a shit about what you said, it obviously did.

  • @MrWhatnow101 This band is horrible. They sound nothing like the album. You know why? Because the guy cant sing, so he runs around like a idiot. Both of the singles are the exact same key and tempo. Therefore this shit sucks. This band will have no longevity in the recording industry and next year the will delivering pizza.

  • @licy123  Oh and you must give a shit because this is the second time you have responded to my comment?

  • @licy123 so two songs having the same tempo makes them suck, clever. pretty much the dumbest thing i ever heard. bands dont need to sound like they do on the album, thats the point of a live show. the running around is called stage presence and is one of the things that sets this band appart. and i saw them live and they sounded great. so stop being a tool and take your self somewhere else.

  • @licy123 Okay, so in your opinion, the band sucks. In my opinion, the bands great, yeah, some of the songs sound the same, but its their first album. A LOT of bands of songs sound the same on their first album, because their young. Like The Beatles, who are widely considered the greatest band of all time by many people. On their first album, a lot of their songs sounded alike, and they went on to be one of the most versatile bands of all time.

  • @licy123 So the point I'm making is, just because some of their songs sound the same doesn't mean they are bad,and doesn't mean everything else they do is going to sound like that too. Also you're right that I do give a shit now, because you're acting like your opinion is the right opinion, which makes you look like a narcissistic asshole. Ending every statement with a question mark also makes you look like a dumb shit too, not cool. So do us a favor, don't watch videos of bands you hate, troll.

  • @MrWhatnow101 Wow, I didn't even read all that shit. The band in my opinion sucks. I don't give a rats ass if you like them or not. My comment wasn't up for discussion. So here is my point. Why don't you shut the fuck Mr I know every goddamn thing there is to know about music. You listen to some trendy shit. This music is trendy, their whole sense of style is trendy. So there. You fuck off smarty pants.

  • @licy123 Well, sorry I had to be the one to tell you that your opinion isn't the right one, just because you think the band suck doesn't mean they do. It just means in your opinion they do, and in my opinion they don't. I also don't know everything about music, I'm just stating my opinion, you are the one acting like you know everything about music, and your opinion is up for discussion. You are the one that posted it, don't post it if you don't want people disagreeing with you.

  • @MrWhatnow101

    Hey, she (He? Fuck if I can tell by username) said "so there." Argument settled mate. There is no come-back to that, plain and simple.

  • @licy123 Your're a retard, you post a comment on a Cage the Elephant video, one which their fans will be watching, it's a negative comment, and you say that it's not up for discussion.... See the flaw in that? You can't get pissed at other people who like this music and tell them to fuck off from a video that they like, retard.

  • @licy123 They are real artists for god sakes. What do you listen to. Fucking shit I bet. Now listen here kid. He puts so much fucking energy into these songs. Do what he does I fucking dare. Matt shultz= Fucking genius you bigoted asshole motherfucker.

  • guy can't sing? even though I can't call it on their future success, I do know that you can barely judge a band on their singing only. Mad legends can barely hold a note, but they can emote like a mutha. And there are plenty of artists who can sing their ass off and their music buh-lows. Pretty much any popular contemporary r n'b, pop act.

  • @licy123 Wtf, Obvious pun is obvious.

  • @licy123 He is a dingbat. And I'm sure he's very proud.

  • @licy123 If you dont have anything good to say dont say anything at all ;)

  • Hilarious...but good also.

  • Bland and boring. Just another mainstream alt-rock band masquerading as something fresh and different. I don't know what these other commenters have been listening to if this is new and exciting for you guys...

  • @DivergentRunoff Bland and boring? what do you consider new and exciting then? They bring back old school raw rock and mix it with a new sound this is far from generic alt rock. And if you have ever seen them live you would not say its not exciting.

  • @formally16 If you want something that brings back "old school raw rock" check out bands like Them Crooked Vultures or The Black Keys.

    As for something new and exciting, Crash Kings are great and sound amazing live. The singer plays a clavinet, which sounds awesome, and he is very talented vocally -- yet he manages to play an instrument. This guy from Cage the Elephant has great stage presence for sure, but what he does is barely even singing. I can barely even tell their two singles apart.

  • @DivergentRunoff The black keys of course are great, and the crash kings have a good sound, but if your thinking mainstream the crash kings are definitely more mainstream than cage the elephant. His vocals are original, they are unique just because he is not the greatest singer ever does not mean he does not do a great job and bring something new to the table, this is rock and roll after all.

  • @formally16 If the Crash Kings are more successful, it's because they deserve to be, as far as I can tell. I've just heard the two singles from Cage the Elephant and I honestly couldn't tell them apart the first time I heard the new one. Maybe the rest of their album is great. Everyone seems to be gushing about them in the comments and I just have not been impressed so far is all. I'm more of a Queens of the Stone Age kind of guy anyway.

  • @DivergentRunoff You must listen to Back Against the Wall, James Brown, and Timber me Shivers. Then you can go on with not liking them. Seriously though, not being able to tell their two singles apart? What's with that?

  • @runawaymotor The key, style, and even rhythm of the singing sounds extremely similar in the verse and chorus of both songs (well actually they are in the same key -- therefore so is the guitar). They are played at the same beats per minute.

    They are obviously not the same song, but as songs go, they are extremely similar, especially to be released as the only two singles of the band so far.

  • @DivergentRunoff Actually, not bland and boring. Yup.

  • Finnaly America's got talent, thank you cage for a fresh breath. are you hiring? roadie, or drug mule, anything?

  • only half as good, cause Matt has to avoid swearing

  • Lead

  • Love cte what the hell is later with Jools holland anyway besides a show

  • @zcguitar thats all it is. they get in like 6 groups and they each play 2 or 3 songs. that is the whole show

  • Thumbs up for Jared drumming shoeless. Haha

  • @Stretchlucas haha thats the best way to drum man

  • singer:IM GOIN FUCKIN INSANE WOOOOO!!!!! bass:i hope no one can see my face guitar:i got a boner guitar 2:just doin what my brother told me to do drummer:they are idiots,they think im human

  • @scatered1 uh....ok

  • which guitarist is brothers with the singer? lead or rhythm?

  • @kite3350 or better put, les paul or fender.

  • @kite3350 i think rhythm i cant remember

  • @kite3350 rhythm

  • dude the drummer doesnt have any shoes on..

  • @mrsexyazn26 ima drummer and i find that its easy tht way

  • @smiffsmoff902 And he's ridiculously energetic.

  • Comment removed

  • Kick ass performance.

  • hows the poor girl gonna follow that???hahaha fucking awesome, i love how hes all over the place, i hate when lead singer just stand there and sing like yea whatever

  • Is Matt on Drugs?

  • @JusticeM618 WAT WOULD MAKE U THINK THT lol

  • i LOVE this:

    SONG!

    BAND!

  • The lead singer reminds me of Daron Malakian in the way he holds himself live.

  • the lead singer looks like Andy Warhol with sun glasses on

  • i like the idiosyncratic movements

  • @benh100 What, you mean "shit"? Shit shit shit shit shit shit shit shit shit shit shit shit shit shit shit shit shit shit shit shit shit shit shit. That rude enough for you?

  • This singers crazy. I like it.

  • it's amazing how a band this new can become my favorite ever soo fast

  • You know... if he dident dance like that (wich is awsome lawl) he would be alot better singer live its just cuz he keeps mooving ... but its ok i still love ter songs :3

  • hahahaha love his shirt, ho ho ho

  • this band is like the smashingpumpkins of ythis generation

  • matts"s a crazy dancer

  • i would change the lyrics to: you can kiss the back of my sack

  • needs swearing only critisism

  • If he would just stand still for at least 1/4 of the song he could deliver the vocals and still flail around like a crazy..

  • @jakeboudreau guess you could kiss the back of his hand. ;)

  • why is the drummer not wearing any shoes? lol

    great song :D

  • @pokadot539 Easier to work the pedals without huge shoes in your way. :P

  • hell yea, theyre from KY. fuckin' awesome

  • "They say the devil is my pal

    I do alot of drugs

    The crowd will only like me if theyre really F****n drunk"

    hes saying thats what people say about them, technically

  • These guys deserve a shitload more attention!!

  • why? cuz he moves with the music? cuz he feels the music?

    Lemme teach you something....in music theres this thing called feeling...if you dont got the feeling you dont got music...meaning if you dont feel your music its not enjoyable...hes clearly enjoying himself...nothing wrong with that...hes expressing himself... not liek the fucking rappers who just say bullshit...this band is pretty dam good. i like em...the lead singer reminds me of Scott Weiland..which isnt bad at all..

  • @SigmaShark97 Exactly!!! and not only Scott, but some signs of Mick and Iggy too:) One of the best 'new' bands around I think.

  • The Hives and Cage need to do a show together. That would be some next level shit.  Two amazing frontmen.

  • who cares, so do I!

  • ROFLWUT?! Our culture sure as FUCK doesn't need help disgracing itself. My god, walking down the street, the only songs i hear pouring out of car windows are those rap and hiphop songs, and those are usually about buttcheeks, shooting other rappers, or money (or shoes, in the case of soldier boy). I don't care how this guy acts on stage, his band in general sounds great.

  • I effing love that show.

  • @dookiebowser did you gather that from his saying 'i do a lot of drugs' at 1:30?:L

  • the music scene over here in the UK has been mad for the last decade! brilliant! you can see why so many bands some here to try brake through before hitting the US, this is my favourite band right now! just ordered the album after having some off itunes, been too long!

  • @mutley2209 but they are from the states...Kentucky, right?

  • yup kentucky, allot of bands come here to brake through as its so much easier to tour and get your music heard by the whole country rather than in the states where it's allot bigger and each state has their own mainstream of music. The UK has been brewing modern music for the past decade, why so many bands settle over here =)

  • ohhh! thanks for the info...and some UK bands that we'd love to see here, Skunk Anansie for example, seem to not want to come here at all:(

  • skunk anansie - stoosh one hell of a good album! keep an aye on the festival circuit, they may pop up in one or two state side rather than a full blown tour, my mate's seen them live, said they were brilliant!

  • Ok so this is the best band of the decade. Everything about them is amazing from their crazy guitar sounds to Matt Shultz's perfomance on stage. These guys deserve way more recognition than they have now but like Shultz says...hes only playing music cuz he fuckin loves it. its not about the glory or the fame. Im going to go see yall at Amos in Charlotte NC. Im pretty sure you will see me front row. A performance like this is worth getting their hours early to get up front. You better play long:)

  • love the singers shirt

  • some fucking band...great album as well

  • dude he's a pirate, he does what he wants

  • @hubba921 So wait a sec, your so naive and stupid, you didnt understand that was an insult, and in no way was meant to be true? Also, its called a fucking opinion, if you dont like the fucking music, dont watch it, and dont comment, you stupid fucker.

  • @hubba921 Don't be angry just because hes probably your biological father, and fucked your mom.

  • Go ahead and listen while you Dance  The you'll get it

  • Fuckin crackin lyricist tho isnt he !

  • rofl

    i don't know what's funnier, the line "today's music culture" or the possibility of disgracing it :))))

    they are pretty good

  • MATE! you chose the rong video to leave this comment on! "listen to the words and find the message underneath"! they give a crap what you think. thats the kind attitude you gotta look at this with. hes not doing this for the fame or the glory as he says. just getting up there and making an idiot of himself and hoping you like it.... if you dont... who cares. he got to travel and be on the famous jools holland show!

  • i fucking love everything about this band!

    their funky fresh new sound!

    their crazy dual guitar!

    vocals are AWESOME!!!

    Cage the Elephant RULES!!!

    FUCK YEAHHH

  • Im sorry, but either the sound quality is horrid on this vid, or these guys arent good live. I love their music videos tho

  • I was really suprised that they are so good

  • The best new band out. I am tired of these whining idiots that rule the rock world

  • there not new at all i got there album lyk a year ago but there still good

  • @j180180

    True that man...these whiney rock bands are shit. Cage ROCKS.

  • @j180180 amen to that man.

  • @j180180 agreed

  • What the fuck's up with the guitarist? Every time I see them in a live act, either him or the singer look like they're having a seizure...

  • C-c-c-c-c-cocaine

  • awesome :) lol
