We Were Promised Jetpacks - Quiet Little Voices (Live on KEXP)

[MrBreakfest]

Hes a bad singer

[kimboslice562]

His voice<3

[projecteightysix]

Most awkward shot I've ever seen at a concert. 1:05

[Djabitforwow]

Thumbs Up! If you heard this on Hall Pass.. ^^

--Sawedoffsob ™

[geoffcos]

Mellow words of wisdom

[CrazyCopperCab]

saw them in philly easily the best concert ive ever seen

[9876GREENday]

Saw them the other day in L.A. Easily one of the best bands i have ever seen!

[MaryKateSalva]

What does he said in the beginning?

[Bkesal14]

@MaryKateSalva "this song is probably the first one you heard, it's quiet little voices"

[levey24]

@MaryKateSalva "this songs probably the first one you's heard" meaning its their most famous one

[geminii187]

Run!!! Run to see the Jetpacks before they zoom away. I just saw them Wed. and words cannot describe how good they are live. They sound 10x better than their albums, and that's saying something because they're albums are siiiiccckkkk. Darren (the drummer) is a madman. It's exhausting just to watch him play and Adam has the most beautiful voice.

[blinkmick23]

never really heard of this band before but this songg iss so damn good and the lead guitarist is a trooper for playing that fast pace of a song

[WhySamuelWhy]

Listened to this whilst shaving, and almost cut my face off with the involuntary dancing it invoked, such an beautiful noise.

[LOSER891000]

i love the stoic possess and thick Scottish accents.

[TheGerthax]

that bass guitar sounds like shit

[tobifantbilkop]

I just saw them in holland, they're amazing!

[Kushrynada]

Got tickets for their London show this autumn! Can't wait

[ID10t96]

MAD!!!



[zimbag]

we were promised put everything into there songs...Thx guys

[Superbadfish88]

come to brazil!!

[ben4374]

His voice must take such a beating all the time, he has easily got the hardest songs to sing

[agentakb]

They give me hope in modern music

[havefaith443]

This band has relly good instrumentals



[montagarn]

love you guys !!!!

[BigBrotherHal2001]

MAWVALOUS! PLAY IN THE HEARTLAND YOU BAD MOTHERFUCKERS! That drummer is pretty damned good. Accept an invitation to play with The Feed on any given night you are in town.

[BulletsAndMarmalade]

I like The Twilight Sad t-shirt.

[cheaprobby]

well done lads great jam



[naotanho]

now this is muisic! and a hell performance live ;)

not all that crap we have today

[cheerios261]

the dudes voice is all fucked up this time

[emicantthink]

his voice is beautiful! -3 favourite band :')

[tonyxpogo]

this is just a terrible performance.

[earzmundo]

epic sound

[JimmyDSuperBizzle]

I love how that guy is clearly the worst bassist in the world or he just has the easiest job ever

[eliwamo]

@JimmyDSuperBizzle Are you talking about the guy to the left, who does nothing for all the verses? Because that's not a bassist. The bassist isn't terribly bad. I think you're confused.

[JimmyDSuperBizzle]

@eliwamo I mean the guy whose instrument has 4 strings, indicating a bass guitar. I think you're terribly drunk.

[starlight277]

@JimmyDSuperBizzle Don't diss the bassist. He's actually quite good. Even though this song has a pretty simple bassline, it fits really well, and he plays it perfectly here.

[eliwamo]

@JimmyDSuperBizzle So why is this bassist terrible?

[pepefiregrinder]

@JimmyDSuperBizzle This style of music isn't very demanding for a bassist. The complexity of a piece doesn't always determine the skill level of the musician. What exactly is your basis for comparison? Until you can prove that you are an absolutely astonishing bassist, pull your fucking head out of you ass and stop being a judgmental prick.

[JimmyDSuperBizzle]

@pepefiregrinder hahaha dude, chill. It was a joke. I adore this band and all its components. I used to be a bassist and I wasn't particularly good myself. wow at you.

[bufaluKK]

I would so like to see this band.

[tubeman25]

i saw them with jimmy eat world at house of blues in boston last year i think sept

[KrashGooderSupreme]

Holy shit is that Seth Rogen on lead vocals?

[nlock12]

these people are fucking awesome im sending much love from the west n hopes they'll come here some day i cannot afford to fly there.........EFFINGHAM< ILLINOIS USA

[barimaphone]

quite possibly the worst camera crew in existence

[INSTG8R75]

Love these guys to death. But after seeing a little live footage I have a small "beef"

As a musician who played in a live original band for 10yrs I don't understand why both guitarists would both wanna play Tele's(For the record I was a bass player who used a US jazz thru a 70's Traynor tube rig)

Just not very "contrasting" I guess. But I am just being a picky musician mostly they sound awesome regardless

[barimaphone]

@INSTG8R75 there are tons of bands who use only one make. its not hard these days to get a massive amount of sounds and tones out of one guitar

[INSTG8R75]

@barimaphone

Well that is just it. There isn't alot of contrast in tone between the two of them, Again I am just being picky.

could easily blame the sound man or the camera man for it.

[tatuniotatunio]

I've never heard of these guys up until now, but you can be certain I won't ever forget about them :D

[nosteezforyou]

Love the song, but not loving the camera guys.

[TheFlamingbunnys]

It makes me sad to see crappy kids show people getting musically famous when there is true talent that is not allowed to shine through and is supresed

[erwinschieven]

In these recordings they're not at their best. Saw them live in Melkweg Amsterdam and they were absolutely mind blowing!! Looking forward to their next album and gig.

[Tonibauch]

see them live, so great

[Marsion444]

Quiet 'ittle VOICES!!!. . . Quiet 'ittle VOi~~Auh'h'hhohhoh Auh'h'hohhoh

- amazing band, props for jimmy to pick these dudes to open up. the singer is a fucking emotionally-raw talented human being.

[CalebATX]

Michael is definitely wearing a Twilight Sad shirt. Awesome.

[dingdongdufus14]

This song is pretty damn hard to play on guitar since he plays it so damn fast. All of the songs on These Four Walls use the same general technique and style to play, and some even use the same chords.

[lkmrn325]

@dingdongdufus14 I know! It's so ridiculous, especially using a pick. I don't know why he doesn't just finger pick.

[PianoSideProject]

Awesome!!!! Great Band

[munecaRara92]

they were at west fest and we saw em for free ^_^ the singer told us that we could go to the Dark Room to pay money to watch basically the same set lol

[yousuck1915]

i saw these guys live yesterday. it was crazy !!!!!!!!!!!!

[hallyutwfan]

the vocalist looks like hoyt from true blood.

[dern329]

they need to get better live. if this was anything like their album i'd have creamed my jeans

[GnomesAmok]

@dern329

You must have bad ears, they sound incredible live.

[macmanof86]

I love this band

[MEGAINDIEROCK]

Awesome Scottish Band:=)

[samsjd]

You've done a great job in filming a great band; spot on camerawork, man, really.

[roberwter]

Brilliant camerawork, what did you film with? canon 5d/7d? sony pmw 750/800? I must agree that this doesn't capture the live performance, they go all out with this song usually, but it's filmed beautifully....

[dern329]

@roberwter it should be...they're professionals at KEXP

[fhdfba007]

i love their music so much and i'm so glad i discovered them a few months ago. they're my favorite band  :)

[laplaya77]

thejean1985aweright :

you're right! this perfomance isn't realy good. I saw them a few weeks ago here in Germany. There've been only 100 (or so) people but they went crazy and so did the crowd.

[carl7ritchie]

they look nervous.

[thejean1985aweright]

Not to slate the band, but I always imagined that they would be a wall of noise live, this just makes them sound like your average indie band... bad recording :(

[thinyourface]

I like the fact that they sound the same in the live as in the recorded version.

[yreuvekamp]

@thejean1985aweright I saw them live yesterday. They were a wall of noise ;)

[petmay13]

@yreuvekamp you mean 'wall of sound', right? :)

[schwabby00]

@yreuvekamp Saw them last night. Overwhelming wall of sound is right. Amazing band; managed to stay captivating even though they have the most awkward stage presence.

[snakelda]

I've been trying to cover this song but I actually got most of the song right :) I actually like their drummer!

[peroznio]

These guys are great, seen them in Nijmegen about a month ago. Was surprised about how class they were. Got myself the Roll Up Your Sleeves vinyl, I'd recommend anyone getting it because the B-side on it is great aswell.

[poiazoo]

this band is among my fav for 2010

[123guy]

great band

[foofighters666]

some of these shots are soo awesome

great song

[ElBrillante4]

i thought it sounded great and was an amazing performance :o)

[mikidamagpie]

Sound is a bit hollow for some reason. If youre standing right in front of them its immense, this isnt really a great representation. Love this band :D

[TheRoyalCactopi]

Love the band... Not my favorite clip.

Saw them live a couple months ago. Awesome experience.  :D

[mrconordylansmith]

great

[lubdar]

pedestrian

[llamavszombie]

pretty good. blew me away

[ToobeYoo]

I like it
