[EarlyLAPunk]

Voodoo surf punk righteous rawk...

[memmabean]

Does anybody know how or what equipment they use to get the vocal effects?

[beneaththeroses]

@memmabean just echo and distortion - doing vocals through guitar amps

[zorahna]

They should do a tour with Woven Bones

[Matan505]

what kind of pedals does he use?

[beneaththeroses]

@Matan505 roland space echo

[YahkoKun]

I like the surfer punk rock sound - simple and to the point.

[FractalCreation]

I really like this band ! It's just incredible :)

[lovo356]

[harktheherald]

He plays through a roland space echo unit.

[gibsones295sturbo]

what a mad band! they sound pretty cool to me. i only heard of them this evening from a guy down my local musician's pub (THE RAILWAY HOTEL, SOUTHEND, ESSEX, ENGLAND). could easily be put into the same catagory as THE FALL.

nice weirdness, keep it up

[gongorastv]

[turtledeerbirdinsect]

Don't knock Dwyer.

[quintincollins]

You better get busy if you're going to post the same comment on every Oh Sees video.

[shankvale]

Nah just these two, if that is ok with you?

[haolekillah]

why do say that?

[shankvale]

Why not?

[haolekillah]

oh your balls are still tucked up inside your belly. well when you grow up the first thing you learn is: if you dont have anything nice to say dont say it.

fuckin idiot

[shankvale]

Smart chap right here. 'if you dont have anything nice to say dont say it' followed up with 'fuckin idiot.' I don't know if you realize what is wrong with what you just said but it is clearly you that is the fucking idiot.

[haolekillah]

@shankvale uhhh yea thats mean if its true. you fucking idiot. hahaha

[shankvale]

Ummm yes...You are still not making a lot of sense to me...Good luck for the future. You will need it as I don't think there is a lot you can do that a retarded Gorilla cannot...

[haolekillah]

@shankvale hahaha do you spend a lot of time with intellectual gorillas?? i didnt know gorillas had an IQ. havent u heard of freedom of speech?? the moral outlook on that is that you can say something mean if its true. my logic is in the constitution fuck face. hahahaha you're still the dumb ass lol

[shankvale]

Pretty sure freedom of speech doesn't mean you can only say something if it is true. Second of all, if you are so adamant about your personal right to free speech, why do you attempt to stop others from having their opinion by bombarding them with juvenile insults. Thirdly, you are clearly lacking intelligence, to say the least, so comparing you to a retarded gorilla IS truthful and thus conforms to your warped interpretation of free speech anyway. Not that you will be able to comprehend this.

[haolekillah]

@shankvale hahaha your so dumb. lets take things one step at time, yea? lol

me or you is being juvenile? im ONLY adamant about you being an asshole for hating a good artist. you are defending yourself like a weasel and trying insult my intelligence.

free speech? my logic: if you say something mean about a person but its true they cant sue you. thats all.

and retarded gorillas don't exist. because there are no smart gorillas. you get it fuckface?

[shankvale]

Clearly there is something seriously wrong with you. One day you may realize how illogical and contradictory you have been. Either way you don't have much of a future ahead of you. I cannot believe you actually think that a morally correct statement is a statement that you cannot be sued over. And of course animals can be born with mental defects. Go sniff some more kerosene and pretend that you are a cultured & unique little douche bag by listening to this fake music you fucking deadshit. Bye.

[forgive17]

@shankvale and you're condescending. you like to act smart yet still be incredibly immature by responding with insults. and the music isnt fake. i just saw a video of it. it's pretty real to me.

[forgive17]

@shankvale childish. it's like a school cafeteria on this page. it's not "will be able" it's "would be able." neither of your cases are fact. if you had the smallest inclination of what kind of person he or she is than you would probably not be telling him or her that their intelligence is of one compared to a gorilla. I think this is all funny as shit. GREAT SONG!

[dannyandnickinc]

you suck

[deestunner2]

This is rad. And I hate most "indie rawk". This is really refreshing.

[v10monster]

When i saw them with Ty Segall and Sic Alps the drummer was on shrooms haha!

[foilseal]

and?

[stewajf]

Just weird enough. Good stuff!

[satinhooks]

ah, a new cool band. it's about time.

[ClickForth]

@satinhooks they've been around in different incarnations for more than half a decade brohams

[satinhooks]

@ClickForth

i consider that a new band.

[mfdangerdoom899]

@satinhooks they started in 1997 you idiot.

[satinhooks]

@mfdangerdoom899

1) This band was "new to me" at the time.

2) I'd say they're a new band to most people, unless you live along their tour routes and attend indie rock shows.

3) Nirvana started in 1986... they were a "new band" in 1991 because the majority of the music listening population had never heard of them, despite having recorded a great album, touring the U.S. several times and a European festival tour with Sonic Youth.

4) You're a snob. Take the negativity somewhere else.

[rcrespo357]

@satinhooks dude ive listened to this band for so long... theyre not new.... nah hahaha i hate when ppl say shit like that tho.

[biguglystick]

I could not love this more.... !

[elikwyly]

this live version is twice the speed of the one on the album.

amazing vocal effects, surf guitars, thrashing drums, retro futuristic rock n roll sound. doesnt really get any better than this as far as lively human expression.

hot shit.

[bejAmir]

@elikwyly

wow, nough said. totally.

[fucktheutubeusername]

great sound,

[xCAPTAINMETALx]

I love this band!

[maitlanr]

didfk

[JimmyReca]

foda!

[LunaticLuis]

fuck this sounds fantastic...

anyone know what they use for the voice effects?

[polishbroadcast]

There is a space echo next to the amp. It mostly sounds like a fuzz / overdrive with some reverb and/or some slapback delay.

[boulderdamn]

Just saw this at Oh Sees myspace, it'll be great to see this vid on the DVD!
