  • i love the way carrie moves when she plays

  • i love the way carrie moves when she plays

  • Frustration until 0:20. But good performance.

  • FEM DEVO

  • In the '90s , they were not that good. Some of their shit completely dreadful. In the early 2000's, they got good and had moments of really fucking rocking. At times overrated, but still far better than most/any Washington post grung era Bullshit like that motherfucker Dave Grohl who I wish would die, already.

  • Oh you've got the darkest eyezz

  • reminds me of Pearl Jam

  • The music world is so much less without them...

  • Sleater Kinney are proof that just because two people in a band break up, that doesn't meant that the band has to break up, too.

  • @ZRN959, i think it's a cherry les paul special

  • Oh, you got the darkest eyes.

  • How long was that song written before this was shot? It looks to me like Carrie smiles when Corinne sings "that dress you wore, those pretty shoes" I wonder if she's smiling because she's not really a dress wearing girl. It's a cute video makes the song a little more haunting since you know it's about the two people singing it.

  • I'm a new Fan, I just discovered them...I absolutely LOVE them! I've bought 4 of their CD's now!

  • @GuyFawkes65 Cool,I have seen them Twice and have all of their albums on CD and Vinyl

  • Whats Corin's guitar?

  • @ZRN959 I think Corin had a Les Paul later in her career (namely for The Woods), but what she has in this video is a down-tuned Danelectro.

  • @JivaRiah

    That looks more like an Ibanez RoadStar to me. But for most of the band's run she used a Dan Electro and a Les Paul, split into two amps for "bass" and "guitar" signals.

  • @fastrnb one of my favorite elements of Corin's guitar playing was the double-amp situation. genius.

  • Yeah, that's Janet Weiss on drums.

  • Sounded Awesome ! ! ! !

  • muchiiisiimas gracias !!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I thought it was going to sound bad at first but that was great .............I love Corin's Howl ! ! !

  • Holy crap so young ago!

  • few times you have the opportunity to llisten to masterpieces...this is one of thos times...

  • aw i was at this show!! one of the first concerts i ever went to haha

  • Carrie playing guitar is the epitome of cool!

  • I fell in love with this band because it's my daughter's fave. I took her to see them at one of them fest things. I went to see Social D. This band was stuck out at one of the outer stages, in a fucking parking lot. They. Were. Amazing. 30 minutes of really tight musicianship, intensity, and passion. One of my fave musical experiences. Period. Up there with seeing the Clash, the Jam, and Bruce. Carrie is one of the finest guitarists I've heard. Corin's voice is haunting. Great band. Just great.

  • @cabronte what a cool mum!

    

  • @siobhanlambchop Heh, heh, thank you. I'm a Dad.

  • @cabronte hahaha. whoops. even better!

  • Does anyone know if Corin's not in standard tuning here? I can't get it to sound right when I try to play her part.

  • Carrie and Corin both tune their guitars to C#

  • Amazing stuff Corin's voice aches in this version more than on the record. It seems everyone got a happy ending. (except for the fans... Sleater Kinney is the BEST live)

  • Imagine having a band as *great* as Sleater in your local record store. It beggars belief, really.

  • God, Carrie is such a beast at guitar! Just watch her fingers - those are some creative riffs!

  • Yeah, I love what Corin does with her guitar as well.

  • One of the songs of my life.

    Fucking great performance in a record store's corner: it's a real awesome band.

  • I bet only a couple of people watched them play. If I was there, I'd be up front going "YEAH CORIN!"

  • It is so sad to see shoppers going up and down the stairs- some pause and then keep going... who would not take a few minutes of their lives to stand and watch this awesome performance?!

  • I met corin at the post office, Jantet out side Creme' they both think they're a little much. Carrie's the hottest by far. I'd like to do more than meet her! This is the best song on "Dig Me Out"

    "One Beat" 2002 is the only consistently good SK record. No no-talent un-bathed punk snot purple acne replies pleez. Study music in college and practice for decades before opening your trap to *me*

  • this is just my opinion as a long time fan...although i love many of the songs off "all hand on the bad one", i think thats their most inconsistent record..it feels like a bunch of songs put together, rather than a cohesive record..and their debut..bottom line, there is no such thing as a bad sleater-kinney album or song..

  • yr entitled to yr opinion, but do you really judge a record on it cohesiveness? some artist go thru phases or experiment with styles, instruments, sounds. maybe they work and maybe not. i dont think the artist cares if one experimental song meshes with the rest of the record. if the song is saved as a b-side, then most would not get to hear it. what a shame. im sure the artist wants people to hear their feelings... cohesive or not.

    you might like music made by robots...j/k !

  • "don't say another word about the other girl" aww dude...someone cheated?:-( GREAT song.

  • apparently this song was about Corin and Carrie's relationship

  • o I know that's who/what i was talking about, that's why i made the sad face, that's messed up!

  • i agree with the sad face

  • hey you guys, i know it's kind of annoying but since i'm from germany i seriously can't find a cd by sleater kinney.

    i'd love to have some of their music, especially this song and the song jumpers. can anyone contact me per icq please?

    thanks anyways

  • That is Janet without a doubt.  Her style is so recognizable.

  • Such a great video. Def. 100% positive that is Janet on the drums.  She has a style all her own... thanks for posting!

  • It's Dave Grohl! who TF else would it be? It's Phil Collins! C'mon!

  • such a pretty song...hadnt thought of it for awhile:)

  • this is the best SK video on here. i could almost cry. no shit.

  • I think knowing that this is about Carrie's and Corin's break-up kind of makes this more intimate, and I love this song.

  • I don't think thats Janet playing drums

  • Yes, it is.

  • Oh ok, It just does not look like her to me but your prob right

  • Carrie is sooo beautiful.

  • You got the drummer wrong, if not cause I can't really tell if it's Janet or not, you definitely have the year wrong then. I doubt you have the date wrong cause the song was written in latter 96 early 97. But wow do I swoon for Carrie, it's unavoidable.

  • Does anyone know why they broke up?

    They were so sweet together.

  • SXK RULZ

  • It's not that obvious, but this song is really a duet. I think it's great the parts that carrie sings reflect what actually happened.

    lovveee it.

  • Tower Records was totally ace, Dig me out's one of my favorite records...

  • does anyone know what they're having a laugh over near the beginning?

  • probably remembering that moment mentioned in the lyrics. this song is about their breakup as a couple.

  • do you know what the song is about? the lyrics she said at that point were in reference to Carrie.. i guess that's why they exchanged a smile.

  • i'm so upset that i never got to see them live. though i did have the opportunity to meet Janet once. she's a friendly person.

  • yeah i would LOVE to see them live but they don't exist as a band anymore, do they? bummer.... i love their music!

  • thats janet on the drums. i saw them months later for the first time. awesome band. thanks for posting!

  • Such honest lyrics... KICK ASS BAND

  • incredible that s-k emerged unscathed [whole] after such a song.

    [& corin losing carrie's ebony eyes, of course]

  • i'll hold you tight beforre i leave

  • awesome!!!!!!

  • love it!

  • excellent performance of an excellent song!

  • excellent!

  • w00t -- thx!!
