Rise Against - Sliver (Nirvana cover)

[Sailor1010]

Great cover, sounds like Tim is saying "Grandma Take Me Home" haha

[MrCrowley1114]

@Sailor1010 thats exactly what he's saying

[HugeMichaelMyersFan]

Now this is called an AWESOME COVER!

my favorite band covering my other favorite band, amazing xD

[rkamilek41]

Some bands dare to Nirvana cover but I can honestly say this is the only one that apears because Tim Knows There A legend and their Not trying to be as good as Nirvana n this just trying to give a tribute to them...dont get me wrong though Rise against is My favorite band and their beyond amazing

[hillshaveyes2]

@rkamilek41 your'e grammar are terrible. but on another note, i completely agree with you! xD

[rkamilek41]

@hillshaveyes2 I havent passed a spelling test in two years

[BodaciousWickerman]

[OwlAteMyCracker]

[ben8510]

Wooow Geniaal Rise against covereando a Nirvana!! :)

[heritic546]

[abaxter82]

Nirvana was a punk band. True story.

[LeonX62]

Can I buy this anywhere?! .D

[Nati2000K]

Me Gusta :D Rise Against & Nirvana rulezzz!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! oraz podoba mi się twój nick :D RiseAgainstPoland ;D Polska Yea ;)

[RockIsLife001]

Turst me these guys have protein just because they are vegetarian doesn't mean they don't get any protein. There are other alt. then meat.

[knifeforkandaspoon]

These guys look fatigued. They should probably take in some protein.

[666bonscott]

actually a great cover tims voice is great for this song

[19Coheed95]

wonder if they tried fitting slipknot in that room...

[NirvanaRAA7X]

@MenAmongPoodles Thanks, I like yours too.

[Explosmz]

Couldnt chew the meat so good...Arn't they Vegan?

[MenAmongPoodles]

@Explosmz haha nice catch.

[PunkManization]

@Explosmz

2 of them are vegan, 2 are vegetarians

[TheLaughingMagicain]

It's funny, I'm not a huge fan of either band, but somehow this combination really works.

[IamAmazinghehe]

Omfg when zach started singing i thought WTF it ruins the song...sry i like zach but this...shitty vocals

[xEdddie]

Eww...

[MrLolisaac]

Saw this in tumblr, now I'm in love <3

[AmBeRFrEaK666]

good jobs guys



[DorixDoll]

In my opinion No Doubt did it better :/

[WaldoTheMusicJunkie]

Holy fuck! My favorite LIVING band playing a song by my favorite band in general! WHY DID IT TAKE ME SO LONG TO FIND THIS????????

[killerlop3000]

My banda favorita de tributo en vivo toca my cancion favorita de la mejor banda de todos lo tiempos

[TheExploitedNirvana]

Brandon is an AMAZING drummer... but dave is better ;P

[kaskushacker]

haha like how the bassist playing,it's awesome :D

[samruiz0000]

this is a pretty good cover

[system0system0]

Terrible. Dont do that ever again.

[scion6221]

@system0system0 That was actually a bad ass cover---and this from a die hard nirvana fan

[RISEANDBREAKING]

megalike!:DD

[rzult]

hahaha awesome

[scion6221]

i was an RA fan and then not one and now stick to the Nirvana covers and im definitely one again----no one nailed Nirvana like this cover--justice well done

[scion6221]

as much as I give RA shit---that was the cover they need to do---Tim you nailed that one

[DeadGoldBass]

What a beautiful sound this bass! If she wouldn't look crappy i would buy one like this

[tomahschestars]

WOAH! One of my favourite bands playing a song from another one of my favourite bands!

[TheSkullCinemas]

first part of bass wrong.



[mrciaran96]

@TheSkullCinemas not it isn't

[TheSkullCinemas]

@mrciaran96 yes it is.

[mrciaran96]

@TheSkullCinemas go on then, explain how it is wrong

[ProffessorPettersson]

zachs head looks like an alienhead... isn't it?

 whos with me?^^

[TheExploitedNirvana]

RA and Nirvana are my 2 favorite bands and this cover is great!! but Nirvana's is obviously still better :P of course they're not trying to be better it's just a cover.

[boobPL]

cool! Rise against and Nirvana are my favorite bands! :D

[LSDTVde]

@manhuntruler2 so u mean ra is just a new kid of punkrock? thats mybe right^^ thought ur a fuckin stupid one.

[IncestSliver]

my favourite living band plays a song of the best band ever..oO

[add37j]

gravitating gnome.

[TemplarKnight5]

This is the best cover I've seen.

[LSDTVde]

@manhuntruler2 and what do you mean is a great punk-rock band? Green Day? maybe popular but not like rise against!

[manhuntruler2]

@LSDTVde Hell the fuck no man! I mean like BIG BLACK, THE GERMS, VERBAL ABUSE, SCRATCH ACID etc etc.

Green is NOT punk, their emo Pop punk, Which fucked over real punk band.

REAL Punk comes from the 1970's and 1980's. 

[MenAmongPoodles]

@manhuntruler2 well yeah, rise against may not be true old skool punk, but they're still good. times change and music does too, so embrace it. or don't, it really doesn't matter if you spend your time looking up videos of artists you don't even like to criticize them like a pathetic asshole.

[darkvirus37]

@MenAmongPoodles I agree with you. Fuck manhuntruler. He's just an annoying cunt

[manhuntruler2]

Rise Against fucking sucks. Poser ass Punk bitches.

[KoczkaBarney]

@manhuntruler2 balfasz

[XxClearSitez251xX]

@manhuntruler2 They ain't posers dude. Punk's in the spirit, not just the music, and they have the spirit.

[manhuntruler2]

@XxClearSitez251xX That i can understand.

[odiumimbues]

nirvana is enlightened music.. takes a lot of hard work to get there. Until we have another enlightened musician who best reports reality to us again.. kurt cobain will always be the safety net.. and a dam great one :D

[ratshitski]

Two fav bands ^.^

[dimitrispeace]

kurt cobain is a legend tims know it i admire kurt and i believe tim does too!! Nirvana & Rise against rulezzzzzz

[enq95]

To fans of both bands: stop the pointless holywar about who is best! Each band excels at what they do. Nirvana sang it as grunge, RA sang it as punk. Both versions are excellent, just don't forget that these bands work in a bit different genres.

[Trapt87]

Im sure this is a talented band, never really listened to em before.. But I hate this cover.

[HAYDS510]

i'm a big nirvana fan and i wanna respect my fellow fans, but some of you are fucking stupid. this IS a good cover. hats off to rise against. we know nirvana was great, lets not weaken that with insecurity and over defensiveness.

[Dunkan444]

My favorite group playes my favorite song! It's AWESOME!

[Titzmcfloppin]

Haha rise against is the shit even out of their element.

[bloodragedil]

The only band that I have heard to pull of Nirvana covers is 'Seether'. Never listened to Rise Against, but this is by far the worst cover to any song I have EVER heard. Thumbs down.

[Rougethegothbat]

At the end: 'Yeheah...'

[astroboirap]

who r these wannabes/

[xlegendaryLx]

@astroboirap go die

[HugoNirvana]

@oOoChriisoOo ahaha man please don't you ever compare Nirvana music with Rise Against

[HugoNirvana]

@oOoChriisoOo why you send me this link ?

[Jeissongrunge]

nice job. But, Please Chorus Slowly !!!!!!!!!!

[kylevsqz]

im gay for Tim no joke.

[TheSpankass]

Pedazo de mierda

[lukasnr23]

Its not Kurt.

[mrciaran96]

@lukasnr23 Well done. It's Tim

[superstriker00]

@mrciaran96 Comment of the decade award goes to you, sir.

[mrciaran96]

@superstriker00 Aha sweet ;)

[HAYDS510]

@superstriker00 i'm with you on that zing, but dont be one of those people that says "sir"... we aint in Camelot bro :p

[conraydo]

hell yeah, that was great. lol at tim wearing glasses. rest in peace kurt

[SmilesDenials]

Not many bands can cover Nirvana well and adapt Kurt's vocals to suit the singer, but Rise Against show their unlimited talent once again!

[AlexMakesThings]

The bassline is slightly wrong

[whateverwhatever44]

@AlexMakesThings a cover dosent have to be exactly like the original song, why would you think people whove been listening to and playing that kind of music for over a decade are wrong...

[AlexMakesThings]

@whateverwhatever44 The bass line is only 2 notes out or something ridiculous but because I listen to the song a lot I notice little things like that.

[whateverwhatever44]

@AlexMakesThings ok.................?

[AlexMakesThings]

@whateverwhatever44 Yeah I'm a purist, this is a good cover ofc, but I just can't help it :P

[canesrule96]

Tim looks like a hipster here lol

[YEApopcornBABY]

see? tim believes in the gravitating gnome!

[darkvirus37]

this version is so much better then the original

[AlexMakesThings]

@darkvirus37 Nope.

[darkvirus37]

@AlexMakesThings Yup.

[AlexMakesThings]

@darkvirus37 Nope.

[TheRealAngusturtle]

Nirvana and Rise Against are my two favourite bands, Im gonna have to go with Nirvana's version though

[MaryKnowltonArt]

the back up vocals r horrible

[MaryKnowltonArt]

Ahh i love this song!!!!

[GeneralPedro2]

XD badass bass

[HugoNirvana]

yoU Want energy.? go to see sliver live at reading..

[breakingfame]

@HugoNirvana FUCK YEA

[Brewersboy28]

@HugoNirvana This is coming from a huge Rise Against AND Nirvana fan. I really didn't get much from that video...the way Kurt sang at the beginning (before the chorus) really annoyed me. Idk, maybe that's just the way he sings, but yea. I'm not saying this version is better, but I prefer it. Tim's voice makes it cleaner but yet raw with his voice...idk. No disrespect to Kurt though, R.I.P.

P.S. Don't flip a dick for someone having a different opinion than yours.

[Brewersboy28]

@HugoNirvana P.S.S. that last part wasn't to you specifically, just to everyone in general hating on Rise fans for liking the cover XD don't take it the wrong way.

[HugoNirvana]

@Brewersboy28 ahah i totally understand your opinion man cheers (:

P.S. sick Black ops videos check out mine to (:

[Brewersboy28]

@HugoNirvana Me gusta :)

[HugoNirvana]

Stop saying that this version and the voice of Tim is better than kurt's version, i'm huge fan of both band's, but don't say that this cover is more better than the original one!

[keyransolo]

I like how Tim kept his own voice when covering this song, most people who cover Nirvana try and put on this "Kurt Cobain voice" and it's fucking annoying. Be yourself when singing.

[Brains0nFire]

I normally get so freakin upset and nervous when bands cover nirvana, just because no one can ever do Kurt any justice.... But that all changed after I saw this.

[hardcorepunk30]

wtf.! this is so AWESOME..!!

what are you talking about.? just because kurt cobain is a legend doesnt mean that he is much better than tim, and I like Nirvana too but Im gonna say that Tim's version is much better..

[MrDgresendez]

this guys voice sucks balls! he fuckin ruined it

[JamesHackSk8s]

@MrDgresendez What the hell are you talking about? tims voice is so powerful! Rise Against songs are extremely hard to sing, & Tim is a punk rock ledgend. Wayyyy better then Kurts version, thats my opinion.

[greatfelixo]

this is great but nobody can do it like nirvana

[Ebeet0FAN]

Rise against covering nirvana?? I´m mean fuck thats AWESOME !

[debesis182]

Don't get me wrong,i love rise against but no one can cover Nirvana :)

[rknaruto]

@debesis182 but compared to must cover RA does a great cover of nirvana, but yes their never was, or will be, any kurt cobain let alone nirvana itself

[boredperson778]

Would you people quit fucking comparing Kurt and Tim and just listen to the music

[jsh020]

the lead singer puts so much energy into singing which is werid cause just like kurt in real life hes always so laid back and quiet. im not saying tims the next kurt, yah voice wise yah i think hes is but personality i know they are not alike in any way

[Sevenchappels]

LOL I HAVE TO LOVE THIS THING...

[tristany1983]

@Dany123z you're completely wrong. you won't find anybody better than kurt to sing nirvana's music 'cause it can't be conceived separately... it's as simple as that.

[wsimon98]

ugh. worst pick for this band. i

[hunnygotowned]

tim is so adorable ^_^

[ErictheSickist95]

if you dont like shit dont comment it or else your asking for a fight and knowing rise against fans there gonna give you one, im a fan of both nirvana and rise against but if your thinking your defending nirvanas honor or some shit you can do that by going and proving how courtney love helped kurt pull the trigger cuz he was to fucked out of his time to move :DDDDD dumb ass

[thelinkinparkmaniac]

I hope they have this on their new album, or as a hidden song like Any Way You Want It!

[AmonOfTheSahelijos]

eh such a small area to play. makes me queazy...

[PortugalSwitzerland]

0:00 - His Face ...

[bradd613]

@PortugalSwitzerland mouse man

[boredperson778]

would be better without zach on backup vocals

[hunnygotowned]

@boredperson778 i totally agree. they should let joe do it :|

[66mondo66]

k, give me as many thumbs down as u want, but FUCK you rise against for killing my favourite nirvana song! like, wow!

[waabooz08]

@66mondo66 LOLXD

[GrungeGodThenNIRVANA]

Have to say this wasnt so great but hey they arent Nirvana and they dont play grunge

[GrungeGodThenNIRVANA]

Omg this is like heaven Nirvana is my favorite band and Rise Against is one of my top favs for bands right now for all thats worth :D!!!

[SSaxdude]

i love both bands but this kinda disappoints me. they're good at covering 80's hardcore punk though.

[Mlky360]

As a nirvana fan I have to say rise against did a good job

[bradd613]

Where can i download this?

[nicom182]

@Gesreg shut the fuck up you fag,rise against is a great band.Maybe you hate them because they didn't want to have sex with you a few months ago.I don't know.

[AlexMakesThings]

@nicom182 I've gotta say, I like Rise Against, but that comeback was a huge fucking failure.

[spideyfreak74]

These guys can make Twinkle Twinkle Little Star sound bad ass!! Rise Against rules!!!

[Commonwealth96]

Good cover, but nothing beats the original

[Grungekid941]

@Commonwealth96 thats true dude

[eFlare1]

Can anyone tell what amp zach's using?

[ThudSV]

I'll be damned.

This is the best Nirvana song ever. And though this version isn't as good as the original (or Nirvana's live version), they KILL it!

Only gripe I have would be with the instrumentation being to slick and polished. But that's really a minor quibble.

In the end, I fucking love it

[Alex97AC]

Hell no, Kurt's voice sounds waaaaaaaaaaay better obviously he's the one who made this song. Kurt's voice just sounds so raw and amazing.

[Raynesh96]

Kurt Cobain was a good singer, but for this song Tim's voice is better ;)

[Legamin53]

really nice :p

i love it

[greedignored]

That one dislike must be Courtney Love...

[michu20520]

PRO ; P i ważne że polski UP ^^

[bradd613]

Where can i download this song!!!!

[marchenebury]

@Dany123z you gay fanboy.

[LukeGriffths121]

@Dany123z More energy than Nirvana? is that possible?

[Sevenchappels]

@LukeGriffths121 En esta cancion al menos no... :)

[dasfeuerzeug]

@Dany123z i don't think tim's voice suits this song at all it's like two different worlds plus this song isn't supposed to be played with energy it's supposed to be played with apathy and lethargy (at least that's how nirvana used to play it) RA and nirvana have totally different appearances and attitudes on stage and overall, you can't compare them. decent cover i love both bands.

[dasfeuerzeug]

@Dany123z if you look at RA's Anyway you want it you'll notice how they made it something theirs and completely different from the original, but i can't seem to find that in this cover it just seems to have no purpose, which doesn't make it bad at all, i still like it very much don't get me wrong

[TheTheblacknight123]

@Dany123z its nirvana songs so it goes how nirvana wants it to  go

[stereobread7]

@Dany123z FUCK no, I'm sorry. I'm not trying to be one of those fans but Kurts voice is a hell of a lot better.

[TheSupaScoops]

@Dany123z you are fucking retarded

[KingDrakeskullnl]

Some kudos for RAST Poland from RAST Netherlands

[bradd613]

Tim looks like he is from the 1950s with those sick glasses

[RiseAgainst4eever]

Fucking Awesome !!!!

Can't stop watching this :)) Tim have so great voice and he looks sweet with glasses :>

RISE AGAINST !!!!!!

[nahailyenvanakkor]

@RiseAgainst4eever

agreed, except the glasses XD

@RiseAgainst4eever dude i was thinking the exact same thing about the glasses :D haha cept i was thinking he looks
