Heatmiser/Dead Air

[WantsToSleep]

They're so bouncy!

[jenniferstmary1]

Ah, Brandt we knew you not...

[cordfluidnevoie]

aw cmon i don't want to be a dick but.. get his name right you dumbass..

[stainedglasseyes1]

That bass player is jamming! xD

[joshymurdasabitch]

it looks like they're in an old folks home. lol.

[janderkin]

If only Heatmiser had toured with Tool. That would have been something...

[WantsToSleep]

@janderkin Please don't mention Heatmiser and Tool ever again.

[gersnoregon]

One of my all time favorite songs/albums. It looks like they're playing at a poorly attended Easter brunch or something.

[AngrySemite]

This brings back memories. I went to school with the original incarnation. They were the best on campus band, although other local bands were arguably better; Dinosaur Jr., Sebadoh and Buffalo Tom.

[lzlDamageDonelzl]

Hey, Neil!

[afterhours23]

this song is so alive

[kmryan182]

Haha, they were your wedding band? That's awesome! 1992 I was two years old. Woohooo. LOL.

[tcornellbusiness]

i saw this band 10x in portland. at the burnside skatepark. then i shaved sideburns. i looked good.

[fertuiee]

that fuckin amazing man, hahahahahaha

[futoncat]

I think i'll try on some of those dance moves at the next show I play :)

[catjoyyoung]

my favorite band from back in the day

[englebertslapptyback]

Is this in PDX? If so, where was it?

[englebertslapptyback]

wow. this live recording has an early Fugazi-ish vibe to it. and Smith's voice is very unlike the familiar Smith angel voice. I like both, personally. hooray for youtube!

[ef6854]

dead air is the greatest grunge album

[MaekTrollPoast]

I wouldn't say "grunge" exactly fits.

More Post-Hardcore punk. The guy that mentioned Fugazi hit the nail on the head.

[LokiClock]

@MaekTrollPoast I would list them as both, personally.

[nothingnowherefkup]

big fan of Elliott's music as well and i love this. Regarding the bass plaver...I think he's awesome! he's cool enough to be playing in a band with Elliott.

[DesertJones]

yeah that bassist is a badass, his dance moves are intense.

[bottleddissent]

Even as someone familiar with Heatmiser, it's hard for me to believe that this Elliott singing. It's just such a different style from his own songs. Mind you, I love it.

[MYxLOVExOFxBEER]

Yeah I had the same problem: I thought maybe Joe Strummer from The Clash had gatecrashed.

All the the same, can you imagine these guys playing at your wedding, awesome.

[XxSliverxX]

I liked the bass players dance moves haha :]

[onlyeyesabove]

i'm sorry, i'm the biggest elliott smith fan, but his bass player looks like a fool

[tclash1]

Man, you really can find anything on YouTube

[iJScruff]

This should be tagged with Brandt Peterson, not Sam Coomes. You know, sort of like how it is in the video.

[desperateStatic]

Thanks

[melunchbox]

very cool
