  • The lead singer is female, And one of the most amazing artist I've ever herd. I'd marry her in a heartbeat.

  • Hipster is a listener of music who just "listens" to the music for name dropping purposes, which they think will result in social superiority.

  • I can't get over that cute, cracked, half-smile of hers. It's everything that's right with the world.

  • just want to point out that Micachu, ie the lead singer, is a girl

  • lol

  • they do this so much better in the busking video! i don't like what they've done with his voice.. and his hair for that matter :|

  • @oldmanshlong his?

  • @danb3237 yes his.

  • I love these guys so much. I wish their songs were longer. So many of them are too short.

  • what's up with all this "hipster" labeling? Those calling others hipsters..what may your label be then? We all have em. Seems like anyone trying to make music right now, from the ages of 18 to 34..who write songs who share the same feelings, to those who inspire (be it content and/or musical style) are deemed "hipsters". Usually said in a negative connotation, mind you. But those who make empty money fueled "music" with NO meaning, what are they called? You guys should know..you're fans of em..

  • @MrLexanderluther1986 no one says hipster

  • @blackgenet In conjunction to my comment, can you elaborate? Cause I'm not sure what you mean..

  • People are more worried that music is cool rather then good these days.

  • Without qualities..

  • the video's pefect

  • it's that person off the yakult advert!!

  • She is Sooo Cool!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Cool. Listen to Stealing Sheep, they inhabit similar musical territory to Micachu: youtube.com/user/stealingsheep­tv#p/u/0/K2JgXLizs14

  • What a plagiarism! Search for band named "Oruzjem protiv otmicara", they did this 15 years ago :)

  • punk of the 2010's

  • Comment removed

  • Why so hipster?

  • I've been listening to them since early 2009 dsjfdjf I love em so much!!! they remind me how young I really am.....

  • Seen the live and theyre fucking sick

  • RawRaw: So bands who unintentionally fuck-up are better than bands who purposefully and artistically create dissonance? That doesn't make any fucking sense.

    LadyGaga? She does more for fashion than she will ever do for music. And hipsters: who gives a fuck? You can wear a shit-necklace and a powdered wig and it wouldn't matter as long as you fucking bring it on the tracks.

  • @egadxxx I apologize for replying in such a late fashion, because I don't check my inbox or whatever. I just thought it'd be cute of me to point out that you misunderstood me. Calm your hipster rage. I simply conceded that if you're not perfectly on point musically at all given moments of the song, it's okay. Dissonance doesn't sit well on the ears which is why most everyone would cringe from the sound of this song. By all means, these guys are entitled to their "artistry", but it's pathetic.

  • @RawkRaw AHHAHA ''calm your hipster rage''. Made my day, man!

  • "they may be hipsters... but let them be hipsters."

    awesome. their hipster-fadness conflicts and misguides them young skywalker

  • LOVIN IT

  • OWWWWWWWWWW MY EARS, THIS IS FUCKING AWFUL

  • I love this sh*t!!!!!

  • imperfections are acceptable in music, but when there are bands who go out of their way to perform out of tune and to a somewhat inconsistent rhythm, then that's called a try-hard. i'm all for what makes up the "indie" genre, but not everyone uses programs and machines because some people are actually talented. most of you don't even look at the actual talent that certain musicians have, such as lady gaga, who is talented, though you may cry out in hipster rage to such a declaration.

  • @RawkRaw WHY ARE YOU SO IGNORANT. WHY DOES EVERYONE USE THE HIPSTER CARD AGAINST ANYONE WHO HAS A POSITIVE OPINION TOWARDS INNOVATIVE MUSIC

  • if being a hippie means liking good music that has some sway and emotion to it and isn't some prepackaged crap that the media throws at you in the hopes that you won't notice it has nothing to it, conveys no real message or really true feeling, and is made for the sake of making money instead of expressing feelings with the intent of getting through to people deep in their heads (which is what making music is all about, in my humble opinion), then i'm fuckin proud to be one!

  • Even Captain Beefheart would have approved of this number.

  • this is amazinggggggg!!

    it sounds so raw and...i dont know what the word is but its epic!!

  • This is genius. You find this challenging. Good. It is superior and demands the listener hear in a whole new way. I am in awe!

  • Incred. where they from?

  • @madiidass1 from uk

  • sex-bob-omb en vivo

  • hahahaha, this is the worst piece of crap i've ever heard.

  • @avenged7fold99 your name includes an avenged sevenfold reference. i rest my case.

  • @wreck93 I didn't quite understand if you agreed with me or not there. But if you dissed avenged sevenfold, over this SHIT. You must be fucking dumb in your head.

  • @avenged7fold99 you don't understand music. avenged sevenfold are just as bad as lady gaga and the likes, with their crystal clean production and dead on time robotic drums. this is exactly what punk stood up against. I cant believe avenged sevenfold see themselves as dark and sinister (or 'sysyster' as they might put it) when they put out predictable and boring albums with no substance. bands like micachu and the shapes are raw and unique and their music is much more real than any avenged shit.

  • @wreck93 Jeez, what a hippie.

  • @Chamealino---and what is your problem ? insecure about your own sexuality ? small dick ? small brain ? people like you should have died out with the witch hunts ..welcome to the modern world !

  • makes me want to dance all primal like!

  • @Chameaulino1

    you have a problem

    needs to go suck a cock or a cunt

    whatever you fancy

    u sound very much in need of an orgasm

  • this is awesome

  • omg i thought it was a boy until i read the comments

  • Michachu GO Attack Bulbsaur with sing

    Michachu uses sing...

    Michachu WINS

  • Génial!

  • wtf..

  • me encantaan!!!!!!...toma ya!

  • fun fun fun

  • I have a strange attraction to the lead singer.

  • @mildred7

    That's what I thought... and she is a woman! 

  • @mildred7 I'd have her. oh and I'm a woman. ;)

  • @walktowardsthelight2 nothing wrong with that, i am too, haha

  • @mildred7 why is your attraction strange?

  • @grandexandi because i'm not usually into girls with that sort of style

  • @mildred7 oh i thought you meant like... you wanted to cut her toenails and smell them or something

  • @mildred7 but she looks like an Aphex Twin nightmare!

  • @theegoape Lol, she's not that bad... I'm not so attracted anymore

  • What instrument is that girl playing? It looks like a zither or something.

  • jaja es genial ese tipo :]

  • what the fuck is this shite, no harmony whatsoever

  • @switchfusion

    You're saying that like it's a bad thing :p

  • this is a girl...

  • i love this song!

  • I LOVE THESE GUYS!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

  • where can I buy the white t-shirt whit the red dots??

  • anybody else think the weird noise at 0:30 is similar to primus? just proves how fucking GOOD they are! bjork has such an awesome taste in music. the knife, battles, animal collective, and now micachu and the shapes. :D

  • mmm, I wish it were longer =)

  • i am really impressed with this artist. the rhythm with a down beat and eclectic instruments. :)

  • Remember when you were the kids listening to that music your mom hated? your dad told you to turn it down? Now these kids are who you are...who I am. If you don't get it, you don't get it, but at the least...remember.

  • She looks like FM Einheit (Einstuerzende Neubauten) when he was young

  • I looooveee iiit :D

  • awesome!

  • sexyEmma4u Its only bands like MICACHU and EARTH CULTURE that really know how to kick ass!!!!

  • Esta mamada que????? Porque gustan tanto a los morros???? NO MAMEN!!!!

  • OMG I LOVE THIS! : D

  • if it's good, it'sgood.

  • reminds me of a british version of primus...its cool though

  • Great exploration of sounds. My only beef is it's too short. Like most songs on this album. I wish they would explore for minutes on end. Would be really awesome to lose my self in.

  • Only lame-asses take time to leave negative comments on these things. Very revealing.

  • VERY NICE!!

  • Cool but talent is not required anymore?

  • @juanpisorin1 you kidding?! these guys are about 400 times as talented as so many people I've ever heard on radio 1- and I was classically trained too. I don't like her voice, but that's got nothing to do with the music she's written.

  • ???????? ???

  • it kinda... sort of... reminds me of captain beefheart & his magic band... not saying they're the same deal, but it reminds me of the idea of... experimenting with rough and unusual noises that integrate into a sort of musical structure... and abrupt endings... yeah... cool

  • @renhersa totally agree with you

  • cool !!

  • you guys are quite awesome!

    i havent heard such an unique sound since bjork!!

  • It's less to do with 'indie ponces' and 'hipsters' than it is to do with this being soulless, futile and with zero meaningful content musically or lyrically. But do feel free to champion it as the next big thing.

  • oh english..:)

  • @TheJunglesound

    You're a bloody fucking douche bag. get real

  • get real about what? 'indie' ponce, dont spout generic and cliche terms to me plz

  • when people express their opinions, their actually letting others into their psyche... just a thought u mite wana take into consideration b4 u show the world just how pathetic u actually are... peace xxx

  • psychology is a soft science. Its mostly balls

  • Wow, I love these shapes. Reminds me of the Mighty Boosh.

  • agreed brosef

  • @TheJunglesound well, You are just being so unreasonable. okay there are more people in this word than just you and your rank opinions. You could AT LEAST have some respect for this band, who happens to have a five start rating on it because the majority of poeple who listen to it, like it. if you don't like this music, then why take the time to search it, listen to it, and criticize it. don't be such a git.

  • I didnt search it in order to criticize it, I found it and then criticized it.

  • @TheJunglesound okay. well, sorry for being such a rude person! just happen to really like this band.

  • @Yoursaffectionately thanks love. I dont care. Its shit music for all I care.

  • @Yoursaffectionately I AGREE, Micachu are amazing, screw what anyone else thinks. xD

  • @ThisFuelCalledLove Thank You love:)

  • cool

  • fucking "we make our instruments out of cardboard eat chickpeas and buy worn out shoes and t-shirts with 3 decade old armpit sweat stains" brick lane bullshit hedonistic east london twats. "avant-garde" my arse. I go to art school in camberwell and there are like 15 of these people in each class, they are all EXACTLY the same.

  • And your point is...?

  • @Hollywoodantichrist

    come on man, have some respect.

    these kids are doing great things for music.

    they may be hipsters... but let them be hipsters.

    this is a great song. just give it a shot.

  • @kels327 They're not hipsters, they're artists.

    Apparently when you try to strive for something new and fresh you get called a hipster for not just shitting out glorified ring tone music like Lady Gaga.

  • @Hollywoodantichrist except lots of people like these guys, and they make pretty cool music, and are razor-sharp in performance (yes, i've seen them live), and they've performed in all sorts of places besides camberwell, and uh what have you made or done? is that the rank smell of envy? seriously, lighten up, and be happy for them. they're doing well, and they make people happy e.g. me - and before you go casting aspersions on my character, i'm not a sweat-stained, chickpea-eating e/london twat

  • @Hollywoodantichrist and i don't "Go To Art School". *laughter*

  • hahahah

  • hahahahahh AGREED BRO. THIS FAGGY INDIE SAMIE SHIT IS WANK.

  • Hollywoodantichrist sums you faggots up perfectly.

  • @Hollywoodantichrist SHUT up.

  • @Hollywoodantichrist No body wants to hear your wank opinions and listen to you complain. Let people be who they want to be.

  • Play nice, sing nice, lively riff, sparse teeth.

  • this makes me want to get up and dance,,,fling some things around ,,, and have a good time over all :D

  • I'm crazy for this band!! And Mica makes weird stringed instruments like a pro. I effing love her!!!

  • ummm couldnt you use the word 'fucking'?

  • I like you best with this hair.

  • wow. they've got a superb guitar sound... how do they do that?! ...and that guy sings like john lennon :)

  • that "guy" is a girl

  • at this year they were at off festival in Myslovice, for me they were once of best band at this fest:)!

  • whenever i have to drive a short distance i play mica's songs, they get me all hyped up

  • sex to my ears

  • Comment removed

  • will you please stop talking hipsters and clothing?there are people who'd like to enjoy music in here!

  • Panie STAŃKO podsunął mi Pan ten kawał fajnego brudnego dźwięku i masz - Spodobał mi się - very good yeahhh

  • wow i want to learn more

  • Check out this remix of another track of thiers - 'Turn Me Well' :)

  • Very catchy song. Reminds me of "Battles", especially their song "Atlas". :D

  • Um... okay. Yea, Battles are great. :)

    Ian Williams, who is that? :S

  • I am kind of drawn to this song.

    But there is a significant part of my brain which was looking at this video (on a stylish late night tv music show) and saying 'i hate that fucking haircut,

    why oh why does music have to be fashionable. Why can't it just be fucking music. no fashion at all.' Then the dressed up model/presenter comes on the screen with her oh so pretty mouth and tells me what the song is. I think this presenter sucks cock.

    I think hooking fashion to music leads to emptiness

  • Ah you were watching, Under the Ether.I agree.Ive been told that my sense of style is really bad.But I really dont have time to waste my life in a clothes shop looking at over priced sylish shit when I could be spending my money on music or books.

  • Comment removed

  • Let me get this straight, you're offended that the people in the band want to have fun with how they dress and look... and yet you say it's people like that who are empty/shallow? I think it's perfectly fine to have fun with visual presentation, fashion, etc when it comes to music. It's all about extending the creativity and art of it past the singular sense of hearing. If you just want to hear the music, why look at music videos at all?

  • u assume that a person is expressing oneself by dressing in such a way, I assume it is to look cool/fashionable,2construct a social persona of oneself 4a feeling of acceptance or power within a specific social circle.

    U see creativity i see vacuous hipsterness which has no root in genuine expression of the self, that is instead an inhabiting of a derivative interpretation of humanity, constructed by that shitty consumerist aesthetic which saturates every aspect of our lives these days. gggghh

  • Even wearing "normal" or "average" clothes is an act of fashion and consumerism, no? One of the only ways to avoid the whole "consumer" aspect of clothing would be to make your own... and that's actually what I see a lot of people labeled as "hipsters" doing. All and all I think your smarmy attitude (perhaps a defense mechanism to guard your own sense of self worth) is blinding you to the fact that... many people labeled as "hipsters" just want to have fun with what they're wearing. Lighten up!

  • "Smarmy/defensive/lighten up". Your comments are coming across as rude/angry. That is not a defence mechanism to guard your own self worth?

    Actually, we say it as if it is a bad thing. What is wrong with guarding your self worth? Oh right if the self worth is a construct/not genuine. Then you are guarding/living a falsity. One of us is or both of us are I guess.

    "Even wearing 'normal' or 'average' clothes is an act of fashion and consumerism, no?"

    Yes, exactly. They are all

  • demographics we inhabit as consumers.

    The tone of that statement/question...Is this supposed to make me realise I am criticising myself? Its hard to guage what to make you classifying me as normal. I dont think it is the right classification personally. I think a hipster (sorry if that term offends, I cannot think of a better one right now) would be more normal, although there would then be the normal people which the hipster rails against as well. That is the expected behviour of that

  • particular demographic. Like making their own stylish counter culture clothes (which I would be surprised if such clothes didnt subscribe to some kind of fashion sense, which was based on/inspired by/a reaction to a particular aesthetic reinforced by magazines/industries catering for said demographic).

  • Do you get what Im saying? Do you get where the emptiness comes from?

    I mean, do you honestly think these people are living outside the box?

    I hope you are not offended by these comments as well. I apologise if you are. but yunno, its what i genuinely see as a truth. i definitely dont feel these points are some kind of defence mechanism to guard a false sense of self worth.

    I would say that of course.

  • @fandoki Read your comments.

    You are one cool motherfucker

  • i really dont get it. they actually seem to play decently here but i saw them last night when i saw patrick wolf and they were awful. however this isnt too bad

  • Very true I may have been there was this at London paladium? They were good at a late of the pier gig I went to though .

  • I just love it when people are not afraid to experiment with music and play exactly what they want. Its what I respect most about certain artists. Micachu is one of those rare diamonds, and she should be treasured.

  • Saw these guys live. Was soooo awesome! ^_^

  • woah i had no idea this band was so famous. my sister knows the band members. one of them went to her school.

  • she looks just like the emo goth kid from south park

  • I love this band. So cool and so brilliant. Micachu is THE face of the new woman :)

  • She is my muse. I actually find her very beautiful.

  • You ACTUALLY find her beautiful, you say it as if one should be surprised.

  • I meant it in reply to the people that state that she is unattractive, not as a random statement. :)

  • Please accept my apologises

  • It's alright. :D

  • See them live and then you will maybe get the idea. This is music.

  • my new favorite band
