Silverchair - Kick Out The Jams

[jetrage69]

Not another MC5 cover band :) KICK OUT THE JAMS should ONLY BE DONE BY THE MC5 , MAYBE RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINES VERSION ok , but Pearl Jam, The Hellacopters and Monster Magnet too fast

[blitzkiller3178]

pause at 2:15 he looks like Cobain. the face..

[neon2modern]

nevermind. is mc5

[neon2modern]

is this an original song?

[GetYourSelfAbeer]

@neon2modern It's a cover. The original is from mc5, Rage Against The Machine covered it as well.

[6868shelly]

wicked..so wicked!

[jrer58]

They need a lead guitar player

[dissociatives]

yeah he used to be such a great grungy singer, now he just doesn't have it:D :D:D:D I guess he gave up drinking, and all social habits. o man, what 's wrong with you !?

being ironic, by the way

[smokingplates]

this song kicks so much ass it make tese pussies seem like they can rock

[thommytaranto]

Not a Silverchair enthusiast but I love MC5 and the vocals are cut really well

[anomalovaho]

thats pretty good, better than rage against white-eee

[deathdealer60546]

not good

[1996Jacqui]

LOVE

[helenkrump]

A decent cover, I ain't no musical snob.

[NavySealWannabe67]

great cover the 29 people who dislike don't know how to kick out the jams

[detroitmetalfreak]

i just checked out the original.. and i think this is better :DD

[Scumbagization]

good cover

[xjessiexcorex]

meh....

[theredkatana]

song really drags without the double time drums. and it needs to be half sung, half hoarsely shouted. overall a good try but i'd still give it a 0.0/10.

[misledprops]

gay

[Saritah1508]

love Silverchair!!! ♥

[mrpolystyrenehat]

he sings this so well

[WHEREtheFUNK]

nice try kids

[tsuei05]

That was a surprisingly good cover of that tune... generally, I think that covers of KOTJ are anemic, but he manages to bring some of the rage of the original... I guess he understand anger and frustration after the health problems he had... good job

[prinzerocks]

Que buenos recuerdos, cuando Silverchair era una banda de Rock.

No como ahora, que Silverchair es una banda de Pop bailable, sin talento.

[jetsonic69]

Kick Out The Chairs :)

The Silverchairs

[jclilly]

This is horrible.

[mrpolystyrenehat]

@jclilly really?

[jessemaurais]

I've heard this song covered by many different bands but never have I heard MC5 play anything.

[Head2900]

Nice one but RATM's cover is better =)

[pluggedteddy]

Good cover but damn, the stage act sucks.

[haladar5]

Good god. Every time someone does a cover, people get butthurt. It's an HONOR to have other popular bands wanting and willing to play YOUR songs live. Not to mention they're having fun up there. They live to do that. Goes for every band. Besides, arguing against others that this version sounds better or sounds like shit is impossible because it all comes down to entirely opinion.

[LVSTYLEE]

why was he so "shy" and "nervous" in interviews and in public...but on stage here he's confident, boisterous and..."consider yourselves lucky!!" ..arrogant.

[dirrx]

@LVSTYLEE well, that was irony and humour, not arrogance

[kojak1969]

From 1 to 10 it ranks a 5.

[timpugsley]

the bad brains version is alot better than this

[Dahonbak]

amaaaaaazing!

[rickanthonydriver]

fucken best version, way more put together and you cant beat that voice!

[SuicideSamurai11]

Best cover ever :o

[oO21AlfonX91Oo]

I don't like that style of kick out the jams, I prefer the rage against the machine or mc5 style but don't this. This sucks

[bou1459]

god forgive me mc5 made a great song but thats the way it should be played exellent job

[steve89z]

nothing will ever beat the original band.

[WHEREtheFUNK]

not bad for a bunch of girls

[hagan4860]

WEAK!!...WTF?

[gibson67v]

AMAZING!!!

[adaltondl]

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawesome! Great COVER!! Kick'em out!!!!

[vikingluv7]

weak shit. all these shit teen pop bands. only good cover was primal scream years ago. nothing beats detroit live MC5!

[hugofernanades]

@vikingluv7 shitty teen pop bands they had more success in one record than primal scream in all of them.if silverchair is a shit teen pop band wt jonas brothers stands for then?

[KimYungSoo]

nvm, i change my mind, this ones the best lmao.

[KimYungSoo]

This covers real good, don't get me wrong but I still think the Rage one is the beastliest of all.

[gunsnroses742]

He used to be such a great grungy singer. Now he just doesn't have it. Can't scream at all.

[twiggyh4x]

@gunsnroses742 His voice is way better now, he actually sings.

Seeing as though your youtube name is 'gunsnroses742' you probably shouldnt be listening to this genre of music anyway.

[gunsnroses742]

@twiggyh4x Yeah based on the fact that I made this username when I was around 11 years old and my tastes have changed, your statement is unjustified.

[fenderjaguar1985]

@gunsnroses742 He can still do everything he did back in the day. Doesn't mean he wants to though.

[chrislgrooms]

@gunsnroses742 Clean the earwax out of your ears motherfuckerrrrrrr.



[bobomchobo]

@gunsnroses742 THat's what happens when you destroy your vocal chords.

[reptilerick]

@gunsnroses742 You do realize this was probably recorded back in the late 90's when they were at there peak? This was just pretty much his live sound. I think it kicks ass. Great cover.

[bethany2nirvana]

@gunsnroses742 well you cant possibly keep that voice forever..i love this stage too dont get me wrong, but im glad they evolved..ive grown with them. I love his voice now soo much!

[msrysignals]

@gunsnroses742 because he matured...now he's a REAL musician

[luke666808g]

@msrysignals so if he stuck to grunge he wouldn't be a real musician? That's weird, I think he was always a real musician but that's just me.

[mattmylescheesys]

this is actually really good best cover

[dannicus617]

this is a better cover then RAtM verision but i would be better if this began at the song and not the whiney BS dialog. Mc5 still the best

[pineapplehead2]

When he speaks his voice is so soft! Then he shouts & its like wooooooooo motherfucker can shout !

[chrisissince1985]

i wonder how long he practiced the "kick out the jams motherfuckers!!" bit

[awishedforsong]

@chrisissince1985 Daniel Johns doesn't have to practice. He just knows.

[gogomatic]

mc5 i love...

[Neoaljeron]

Does anyone no what kind of distortion pedal/s he is using?

[Wrathounette]

Posers...

[GreatDylan420]

and to the business man fuck head silver chair dosent and never will come close to the bad brains what blasphemy go purchase some beach side property and watch Fraiser you dip shit fuck

[GreatDylan420]

blue oyster cult? what the fuck

[AxGryndr]

What a horrible cover of Blue Oyster Cult.

[Spedly]

.....are you serious?

[PieceofMindmusic]

dude its an MC5 cover

[allnightjohnson]

Yes, better than MC5. Who the fuck made you geeks the arbiters of cool? I am a talent buyer for a living. It's my fucking job you twits. I am not trying to be cool. I have spent most of my life in the music business. My opinion get's people jobs playing their music. I have a broader and more diverse taste in music than anyone I've ever encountered.The last thing I ever thought I 'd say is that Silverchair covered a song better than Bad Brains. But the truth is the truth.

[RamonePinhead]

Fuck your opinion.

It matters to nobody exept yourself.

And poor taste is always poor taste.

Despite how cool you think you are.

There are no rules in great music.

[RamonePinhead]

Hahaha. Got a little upset with the comment on my profile there Mr Bigshot...

You are free to prove me wrong anyday.

Just don't pull the rest of us down with your bitterness and shitty attitude. Get down on the ground with the rest of us.

[VanGavran]

Today's music sucks ass because of "talent" buyers like you, Mr. Diverse Taste...

[djboi94]

sorry. great they tried...... but a poor cover.....it's hardly RATM, Henry Rollis, Mudhoney or Pearl Jam.....trying too hard to be cool?

[deathpigeon69]

...or MC5...? Lol

[Hoestvind]

Really really good!!

[sunchild90]

SICK SHIT!

[jetsonic69]

Hey I know why dont all the grunge bands that played this song join up for a new supergrunge group? :) CALL IT GRUNGE JAM :)

- Pearl Jam

- Silverchair

- Rage Against The Machine

- Audioslave =) anything that has to do with Street Sweepers Social Club.

I think Rages last album: Renegades influenced this song: Kick out the jams is making every grunge 90s band wanna play it too

[SkateD0G]

Has every grunge band covered this song?! Mudhoney and Pearl Jam, Rage against the Machine isn't grunge but they covered it, and this band too.

[beanchao]

he sounded like marilyn manson when he said kick out the jams motherfuckers!

[VikingThor1]

hey Silverchair, yaeh it's an old song but it's far better than any song you douchenozzles ever fkn made

[allnightjohnson]

what a jackmeat....what song did you ever play that people on the other side of the world have heard? Or would even want to. There is enough bullshit , name calling and finger pointing to go around. Next time point the finger up your ass. And just so you know, when searching for a good version of this song, Silverchairs was better than MC5's, Henry Rollins and Bad Brain's, Jeff Buckley's.

[deathpigeon69]

This better than the MC5? No.

[silverchairlova]

fuck you silverchair is amazing.

[bitchbitchbitchable]

This Is Really Good

[JumpInTheFire83]

where do you think i could get an mp3 of this?

[dirrx]

you can download it from youtube, but the quality is not the best then

[jamos21]

what a fucking faggot

[LiamHuxley]

Kick off the jams mother fucker

[gieboy00]

it is very rare to see silverchair covers a song.....

this rules!

and the people who says they play it wrong that is beacause it is a COVER and they have their own style. they doesn't have to do the same as the original.

[donvitor]

I'm far from a fan of Silverchair.

But this was probably one of the top 3 best covers of Kick out the Jams I've heard.

Cool to see them try to do it a bit different.

[Frisbieinstein]

This is really good.

(And I saw the MC5 do this for real.)

He did make a mistake with the words though.

[beeswaxlike]

it's not doing it for me either, but the parts about how the fans should consider themselves lucky for the encore is hilarious.

[Melleniacon]

Anyone got the tab of this version of kick out the jams?

[cottoncase]

this is just amazing stop judging

[algatica]

muy buen cover de silverchair, una pena que tal ves el publico que va a ver a silverchair no lo haya apreciado

[GruvisMutt]

I am not a fan of Silverchair, or Daniel Johns.

But he and his band are respectable musicians, if you know anything about musicianship and artistry.

Props.

[cottoncase]

oh yeah so not a fan then why are you even watching this?

[cyrus138]

ha ha ha fucking nirvana part 4

[AICnSP4EVA]

I admit he does look pretty wierd with that costume, but dont judge silverchair by their clothes. They have some awesome rock riffs up theyre sleeves.

[Serenberg]

Rock and roll.The MC5 WOULD APPROVE.

NOW LETS KICK EM OUT

[mrballistix]

They wish they were Nirvana so bad.

[420Guitar420]

You've never heard any of their songs right?

[msrysignals]

dumbass

[ivanbrfr]

this guy looks not anorexic. yeah, his fisic yes, but

the way he sing and plays guitar it's just incredible

[420Guitar420]

He was anorexic still a great band even though they got lumped in to that Nirvana/Grunge wannabe group just because of the song Tomorrow....which isn't even a grunge song it's alt rock.

[namniekib]

Hands down the most poser corporate girl band version I've heard in ages.

[lcarlosadm]

Hmmm....

I guess this prensentaion better than original... Yeah Silverchair... They don't imitate but irritate...

Respect these guys ok!!!

[bengalsfan9382]

gay...presidents of the united states of america have a way better cover

[louiseduvee]

Check out Loose Ground...

[choptop1218]

I judge a "Kick Out The Jams" Cover by how well they Yell out "KICK OUT THE JAMS MOTHERFUCKER!!!!"

[Sinkingabout]

I think it's a pretty good cover. Silverchair, Rage, Jeff Buckley... how many bands have covered this song? I might start collecting them.

Also, Silverchair were extremely heavily influenced by Nirvana in their early output; that doesn't mean they were supposed to "replace" them. Put down the handbags, ladies

[NothinGBetteRPJMaN]

My favorite cover of this song is Pearl Jams!! I dont know if they have a quality video of them covering it on here but I have an awesome mp3 if you wanna pm me and start your collection!

[ExileCanadaMetal]

go check out peal jam/mudhoney playing kick out the jams.

with out a doubt the best cover of the song i have heard. this version isnt dong it for me its an original take on the song but not stand out.

[jackblack]

What a disaster...

[strooka]

sorry but that has to be the worst cover of "kick out the jams" i have ever heard! incorrect key, the riff is just plain wrong and what a dreadul guitar solo. apart from that it was just plain pitiful!

[JonnyBlahBlah]

Lol at the drummer he looks like some fat guy they just pulled out of KFC

[SmellingDeadRoses]

so what? .. he's still better than you in every single way :)

[P4k4er]

Silverchair are my favorite band

[cattleforslaughter]

these guys are total faggots...

[wilhelmscream85]

dude... are you serious?? is it because they're too awesome?

[cattleforslaughter]

no dude. this band was a record labels desperate attempt to fill the void left by nirvana. so they searched for these cute little kids who looked good in flannel. I win.

[wilhelmscream85]

?? I never realized Silverchair was supposed to replace Nirvana.. The more I think about your statement the more sense it doesn't make... Silverchair is completely different than Nirvana and always has been. They got signed because they're fucking awesome. Secondly, have you heard their new stuff? It's fucking radical.

[cattleforslaughter]

umm... okay, if you think silverchair is "radical", then you dont even deserve to have an argument with me.

[Toasterman7642]

The both of you are idiots. Stop arguing on the internet, it goes no where.

[Hoestvind]

if these guys are faggots,i dont wanna know what you are, douchebag!

[jeangeniex3]

DANIEL JOHNS IS A ROCK GOD!!!!!!

[thelichhero]

no, he became one but now he is a homo

[rurikvred]

Homo's rock.

Freddie Mercury said so, lichhero. (what an asswipe)

[Fliperchair]

´`oia Q FOOOOODAaa!

VErY NICce!

[mellowgold87]

crap

[pinwizz69]

This from someone who saw the MC5 LIVE as a teen in67.When your sorry lame ass can get up there and play better,then ya got the right ta run shit outta yer piehole, I think they did a killer tribute to the true original HEAVY METAL BAND, THE M C 5

[1heldaccountable]

rob tyner mutha fucka!!!!!!!!!!  mc5 rules

[Steve92crue]

lol, he fucks up the lyrics hardcore

[miagisan]

lol, your mom fucked up when she didn't abort your ass.

[terminalninja]

thats way over the top mate, even by my standards i think that was out of order.

[PerryLogan]

They screw up the basic riff. Bad.

[spscotto]

It's tuned down a bit. It's not wrong, just played differently, probably to make it easier for Daniel to sing.

[musicsquid]

that guitar hes using is the one he uses for paint pastel princess, spawn again, without you, and emotion sickness, and its tuned in Db Ab Db Ab Db Db tuning

so its all flat in the song.

[shokkewave]

The singer isn't aggressive as Rob Tyner

[supaawesome]

KICK OUT THE JAM MOTHER FUCKERS!!!!!

my favorite part

[softlysally]

are you kidding? wayne kramer's michael jackson moves can hardly ever be beaten. how many people in this audience knew?

[snakepunkp]

i like this version...

it has a lot of energy and its very well played if we considere the mc5 version or hellicopero (i dont know - and i dont want to - how its wrote).

even jeff buckley didnt do a better version...

well... for me its one of the best versions of this song

[demonizer6663]

RATM's version is amazing. the energy it gives off is uncomparable. the singer sounds like he needs hooked on phonics for christ's sake.

[spscotto]

at least Daniel Johns can sing this song, the RATM version doesn't have a bit of life to it.

[hippys6991]

ratm is the most powerfull act in the world

[speedtack22]

yeah i have to agree this version sucks compared to ratm or buckley

the only ppl who like it are silverchair fans

[texasradio73]

silverchair ruin yet another song

[fillipeano]

Pretty good version, but I still prefer RATM's version. The RATM version solo is way cooler IMO. A lot of energy from both bands which is a huge plus.

[GeoAl09]

jeff buckley version is so much better than this and ratm's version.

[Tlb81]

gayest verion?? no u are this is the best

[chuck089y]

what r u guys talking about this version is awesome! listen to ratm's version and see the difference

[str84ever]

the ratm one is shit, i can list loads more covers of it better than both this and the ratm one and i like both the bands.

[bluechartreuse]

this is by far, hands down, the gayest cover of kick out the jams i have ever heard. watching the vocalist contort his face like he's constipated makes it even worse. whither the rock?

[snakepunkp]

hahahhahha

[99mees]

bad brains/henry rollins version is king!

[rocknyootoob]

every modern day rock band vying for some punk rock street cred hopelessly try and cover the stooges or MC5, the godfathers of punk.

i like silverchair but they suck at this.

[spscotto]

I like this version, sounds so solid.

[maximummonkey]

wolfatnight is right!, teeny-bopper posturer mother fucker! Even the slippery digits version is better! At least the bass player is trying.

[deneoman]

i recon did this song it sounded MINT!!

very well done in my opinion.

[wolfatnight]

what a fuckin shambles - teeny-bopper bullshit posturing - talking like he's Mr Rourke from Fantasy Island - wanker

[Haggan89]

I like Hellacopters version bloody damn much, but this is quite nice too :)

[Slash1374]

that sound is silverchair? i can´t believe it, but i like it...

[mototool]

wtf!!!!!!!!!!

this sucks man......

[jollyjoppe]

well; he sing the wrong text in first verse!

[Melleniacon]

Anny, I love the Jeff Buckley covers of Kick Out The Jams aswell, raw energy.

[MojoFiltre]

Hey why knock em'? Nice to see a younger band paying tribute to the mighty MC5. I have the feeling if they tried to mimmick the 5's manic energy, they would get criticized. they played it straight ahead. just nice to see a younger band play it to an audience that may have otherwise never heard it. Aussie or American.

[FOJO70]

Try Rage Against The Machine for a great job by a younger band. Although this is a great job as well.

[danzigurl]

Saw it.  Your right, another energetic version!

[Pojothepanda]

There there, your both right.

[plumgreen]

this is such shit compared to the MC5, there's no fucking energy there, it's cuz theyz austrailinz mate

[Vexxy66613]

You saying Aussies have no energy? may i remind you of ACDC? Rose Tattoo?

[s2krulzall]

better than being a dumb fuck american like u mate

[elliseeatsghosts]

I don't understand what you mean? I don't see that your nationality has any effect on the energy level of your performance. what a stupid thing to say man.
