The Datsuns - Harmonic Generator

[blushzilla]

I have been terrified by the fact that this was released in 2002!! 10 Years ago ...*collapses*

[dudeabides83]

god, its a shame new zealand bands keep owning aussie ones. considering only 14 people live in nz and this is what they come up with. we come up with friggin birds of tokyo and call that rock, what a joke! keep rock alive nz, cause we sure struggle to!

[Jaaaarh]

@dudeabides83 Bro, that comment man.

Just earned you so much respect bro.

You're the man.

[ThePrehistoricsBand]

So very tasty

[eurorocker79]

I guess I shouldn't have commented on such a popular song... now some asshole is giving me attitude... anyhow,

STAY ALIVE WITH MC5!!!

[MARMOTEER1423]

@eurorocker79 wow...how pathetic is your existence.

[lucs311]

i live in brazil, thousands of miles from new zealand, but ive not only bought 2 of their albums but have made it my personal objective to see these guys LIVE =]

[rocknroolla]

@catsarecoolerthenice actually their about to give us a new album! i dont know if they still have a free song download called ''Gods are Bored'' but i guess you can find it here.

[NewarkWilder]

@penney5 you must be fucking joking, for real.

[edylarge]

at last i've found out what flight of the conchords was based on.xx

[chrisound]

hey men when come to mexico i really hope come in you are a great band really yeahhhhhhhhhhh

[MyHairyBreasts]

"I GOT NOTHIN TO SAY" you are right about that datsuns.

[johnald8]

Is indie when you're a featured video on youtube?

haha

[Psychodarity]

@penney5

There is nothing "indie" about the Datsuns; you pompous ass. All of their releases have been through Universal and EMI. Get fucked.

[FaceOfMyInnocence]

@penney5 They only got together in 2000. It's not exactly ages ago is it? "Good ol days" lol makes you sounds about 15

[69QuIzAcK69]

I love how the first half of the song had no bass!  That was very well done guys! Now we know where the Red Stripes got their sound eh?

[Dalgren969]

@69QuIzAcK69 Who are the Red Stripes?



[swahiliswaho]

@69QuIzAcK69

You mean the White Stripes, and they released their first album in the late 90's, while the Datsuns were formed in 2000. Which makes it impossible for their bassless sound to be inspired by the Datsuns. Cool beans though.

[KENNEDYBUSKER]

Been in my head for days....lol

[missellie05]

these guys are AWESOME live

[alexander84rugg]

shame this band got lumped in with all those less awesome indie bands.

put them on the same stage as the hellacopters, much better gig than they would be with the friggin stripes.

[CliffyGiffy]

@alexander84rugg Even as a White Stripes fan, I still agree, these guys would be right at home on stage with The Hellacopters, those guys fuggin rock!

[alexander84rugg]

@CliffyGiffy lol, i do likesome of the stripes, but on that day it was all about rocking just a little harder in a different way, lol

[MerolLord]

wow just tried them and this looks sick with red/blue 3D glasses @.@

[CliffyGiffy]

@MerolLord I spent three bucks on red and blue 3D glasses just to see what this video would look like with them on :)

[arthurw007]

@penney5 agreed, the class of '02 wont be bettered...libs, vines, stripes, strokes, datsuns...

[JJaguar333]

Great song :)

[PT13856]

Great song!

[corytaylor3]

i am having this played at my sisters funeral when she dies its so awfull

[backstabbinbastard]

I feel sorry for you. how old was she?

I guess much too young. . I think she loved rockn roll.

[corytaylor3]

ow lol sorry you might have got a little confused its cos she hates it she aint dead yet lol she laughed when she saw this comment both lol she is 14

[backstabbinbastard]

Glad about that. But I thought datsuns on a funeral, thats pretty cool. Haha.

[Popstadog]

Love it...

[endgame999]

Honestjosh, you are clearly a penis. stfu

[mwright165]

no they do not! judging by your profile you have a great taste in music but then i seen you like system of a down and i thought "gay"! haha

[models4wifes]

lol you listen to audioslave and tool me thinks your a poser

[Honestjosh44]

Yes because listening to those bands is indicative of being a posuer.. c'mon, don't be stupid. Ones a flippin prog-rock band, the others a side pro of established musicians.

[mwright165]

and dream theather and rush haha! gay! im joking though music is music but thats not my type! do you not feel like dancing when you hear this music man?

[Honestjosh44]

phhff yah whatever

[Honestjosh44]

Taking the piss out of D.T I understand (theyre a bit operatic, OTT), But slating Rush now... heh, good luck to you with that one.

[mwright165]

man if you dont like this band why did you bother commenting i know its your opinion but i think you wanted people to get pissed off at what you have to say, but no one does because when all is said and done and when the day is over and the world is sleeping and waking up, you are still into rush! and that my friend is cheesy music for old farts

[personman48]

dude i like the datsuns, but rush blows them out of the water. i am 15 and i love rush. and its also not cheesy

[mwright165]

i have since listened to rush my boy and i was wrong they are not cheesy but still not my thing, dream theather are crap though

[genocommand]

its not about water and OR cheese, its about rock and OR roll

[personman48]

please tell me you weren't trying to make sense

[2hell4you]

O.o go back to school

[mwright165]

rush! they are basically an older dream theather!haha i dunno

[Antkoff]

Audioslave sucks (if U compare it to RATM and Soundgarden)

[mysteryliquid]

MYSTERY LIQUID are an ORIGINAL ALTERNATIVE - FUNK - ROCK BAND FROM

AUCKLAND, NEW ZEALAND

SUBSCRIBE, RATE, COMMENT!!!

[noisem0]

cool

[noisem0]

turn on the generator...

[ladykiller20091]

Yep....the song is referencing the Electric Mistress pedal by Electro-Harmonix....he even says "turning tricks, baby, electric mistress"....its a fave pedal by many garage rockers and hard rockers.

[indierickenbacker]

great pedal

i love EHX stuff

[Surfpunk69]

Great Brattish rock n' roll! Great vid too. Seen these guys live a couple of times (not for a while now tho) and they rock!!

[gibozzo]

I'm seeing them this Friday. So excited!!

[spankysteez]

Great British? New Zealand rock n roll dude!

[Surfpunk69]

Doh! No dude, I said Great BRATTISH!!

[Lugas85]

These guys are amazing live. They opened up for The Hellacopters a couple of days ago in Lund. Never heard anything with them before and I was surprised.

The Hellacopters did kick the shit out of them anyway. Great performance.

[herny69]

is this song about an electro harmonix pedal ?

[96monster]

who knows,who the fuck cares!!!!!!!!!!

[666hellDog666]

New zealand at its best

[ElTom1490]

Pretty good, solid song.

Excellent when you're drunk and nobody else knows the words.

[yalnikim]

it is a cool song but it, and the video, is a bit of and all round rip off. nothing wrong with that though, especially for a young bunch of guys, hopefully they've found their own thing...

[DunlopDaytona]

Probably their best song, and right up there with Deja Voodoo. LOL.

[ewmart]

omg...awsome song

[Karena78]

So is this song about Prunes & Custard? ;)

[Hilarion1771]

Great tune.

[musicwithedge]

hong kong fury was such a good tune by them, was it not made a single?

[chris220288]

My friend said the datsuns are a zeppelin cover band, he is journalist scum, he knows nothing, but he was in the pixies in 93 apparently, despite the fact hes only 19?????? I've played guitar for 9 years but I dont know shit apparently also. I love this song, but I'm simple and stupid apparently. This has been a year of apparentness.

[lexo30]

He certainly does know nothing. The Datsuns sound absolutely nothing like Led Zeppelin. They sound more like a Dead Boys cover band, but then your friend has probably never heard of them.

I think is a a great song, btw.

[wmd221]

the DAtsuns are the s**t.

[ryansmith392]

This video is like a trip. Awesome band though.

[cloma76]

I love datsons !!

[bassplayer4shyrobyn]

[Bodaciousss]

[THC4L1FE]

[benackais]

GREAT!!!!!

[FeliiDude]

Best Band Ever!!!!

[Kela08]

YES YES YES!!!

[phillymickelslam]

one of best bands i have seen live they rock

[pernicketty]

Bangin' on one chord and wailing into a mic won't get do a thing for your career. What happened to the guys who did Supergyration fer phuksake?

[MadKingWest]

Datsons beats the old crap ur into anyday pernicketty, hands down b1tch,your styles wack thats why u aint nowhere baby hahahahahah loser

[pernicketty]

Say what you like. It's just not up to their earlier standard.

[moss1mo]

[pernicketty]

Supergyration was released in 2001, Harmonic Generator 2003.

[pandaeyes42]

[patrickchanning]

[jools182]

[marypopers]

Datsuns...yeah..the concert was so good..the wery best of ;)

[MadKingWest]

lenny kravitz loves tha datsuns

[skuif]

The datsuns are fuckin rad..smoke and mirrors was rad as well.....smoke it

[taos0]

Mahn i love the datsuns.....smoke and mirrors was a bit shit though

[aylastarsaphire]

They remind me of 'Iggy Pop and the Stooges'. Unlike other bands who try to imitate 60's,70's music, there is something pure, genuine about the Datsuns. Maybe because of their raw, effortless talent.

[rat0attack]

amen

[ewminga]

All the way from New Zealand represent!

[o0whitestripes0o]

finally got round to posting sommit here!, love this, great song, the second datsuns song i ever heard in bout 2003! lookin forward to meeting them again
