[dahmeinmcfadden]

Ok Ok Can i say I really found a band i can really like

[angelwingz6841]

The singer totally sounds like she belongs in Tegan and Sara

[themissus84]

Gonna see them play live in a few hours!!

[kmacmuzikmafia27]

She makes me wanna cut my hair, dye it blonde, and learn to play the guitar.

God I love this band :) Every song just builds up into this mountain of fucking awesome!!

[bignick2k6]

[ComeBackSmiling]

Acoustiv Version at WatchListenTell is so much more brilliant..

[dunknobeere]

xfm brought me here a month ago and i'm still here, loving it :)

[fatbeatferrer]

Great band guys! Hope you'll come to Lowlands festival/Holland this year?

[bobbeorn]

Obviously they cleared away the mess afterwards?

[TomRocheCork]

Scratching the Surface brought me here...

[MrFerdinandvarsal]

That's a great band...i love their sound ...makes me feel like a joy ride over landscapes, the cities, the world...

[killthegoose]

i feel sorry for the drummer having to carry his drumkit when the other two only had guitars :L

[Gand0har]

@killthegoose You totally forgot the amp ;)

[lostburton]

they don't smash any instruments, didn't you see? when they got to the bottom they were all back together. It might be a mountain with magical properties...

[GBolotoff]

i love you, Ritzy

[knaepsimon]

This is genious!

[Joeyyy1300]

RITZY <3

[dylanvine]

Charlie-never alone at a T.J.F. gig.

[hdysnomia]

Aside from the song (which I love) really love the home-made feel of this video

I can't quite figure out how to reproduce what they've done with the colour, though

[well0009]

@thepillkillz or Ivete Sangalo, buddy. It depends where you live...

[charlie123abc360]

Should I buy a ticket to see them in London? I got no one to go with tehe :(

[angieyseren]

@charlie123abc360 Yeah do it Charlie loads of friendly faces at TJF gigs :)

[19me93]

Just lovely

[t3hpez]

[zertgold]

Yah, but can you really respect musicians that destroy instruments?

[zertgold]

Yah, but can you really respect musicians that destroy instruments?

[spydrsnppr24]

[MsOraki]

Their guitars are so sturdy...

[al158411]

The Berrics!!

[Joeyyy1300]

Seeing them Sunday :D

[coxy99]

[TheBiz182]

@coxy99 No they don't, Emily Haines sings in a much deeper pitch and this does not have synth...

[yr06jcrawley]

See you tomorrow (Cockpit)

[FatHarrold]

[invisiblepookiller]

I found this on an episode of Huge,

I was so pissed I did not know these guys before then.

[MrBJRoy]

I CANNOT GET THIS SONG OUT OF MY HEAD :)

thank you

[Muckydoggy1]

such reckless disregard for the country code. seriously though they're awesome.

[kaari1]

Great song!! Check out danish act Inouwee with the song "Liquids playing misty games" if you like this.

[MutantBlues]

I hope they took their litter home with them, remember the country code people.

[mojanadzieja]

hahahahahahahhhh.. guitars without cables :P

[MsCrudos]

What an amazing song!

[swissnev]

really really brilliant music you guys - thanks!!!

[AknobularItch2]

you got to love randomly coming across great bands on youtube

[JohnwiththeMustaches]

cant believe this song is sooo old,

ive been waiting for album for nearly 2 years

[amewsed]

I like that feeling you get when you find a band you love..

[louiseravenscroft]

coachella :)

[Arsenefaithful]

Sincere Harmony in my brain.

[Dp73009]

That's littering.

[kaari1]

Great stuff!! if you like this check out danish band Inouwee with the song "Liquids playing misty games"

[ZakAttak234]

I would have taken the drum kit if they didn't want to keep it. Still.... Awesome song

[94BeckyT]

thankgod for the radio or i would have never found this!!!

[vinyltapbeats]

mmmmm........good like mexican food

[georgemjcy]

indie979.com brought me here!

[slowlearner12]

THE BERRICS brought me here.

[znthahmed378]

@slowlearner12 What's that?

[lbz900]

@slowlearner12

as in DC battle at the berrics?

[slowlearner12]

@lbz900 yeap.

[WafflitoTheWaffle]

good stuff! I actually heard this band from gossip girl!

[ronaldthetyfan]

Why why why would you throw instruments that made your music so good?

[Alin82]

@ronaldthetyfan it's an old "tradition" in rock music. See The Clash - "London Calling" album cover for example.

[InnitLa]

I could've had those drums D:

[skate9star]

I loved that ending.

[Marcoshary]

Very nice band. I didn´t know it.

[hummanbird14]

when do the concerts start again? :)

5 people thumbed it down by mistake :(

[hummanbird14]

when do the concerts start again? :)

[spacegirl226]

i've been listening to this song on repeat for the last few hours while i wrapped christmas presents. it was a happy few hours. thanks for the great music. i hope you guys make it HUGE!

[thepillkillz]

in a perfect world I could turn the radio on and hear this song 3 times an hour - unfortunately, in the world I live in, this is replaced by ke$ha.

[skud]

@thepillkillz Respect!

[DSAASD102]

@thepillkillz more like justin bieber...

[splinter360]

@DSAASD102 Seriousely man. Can everyone just stop with this. Everywhere I go his name is there. What has it got do do with this awesome track??

[curtisrunstedler]

@thepillkillz Ah well, kesha won't last. Music like this, however, will stand the test of time and last forever.

[jamesthemod]

@thepillkillz What annoys me is when the media start saying there are no indie/rock bands making the charts anymore...

THATS BECAUSE THE RADIO DO NOT PLAY ANY!

If they stopped playing so much s**t and played more music like this, the world would be a better place!

[thepillkillz]

@jamesthemod I HEAR YOU. Maybe it's time to stop listening to radio. A great man once said that "radio plays what they want you to hear" (Elvis Costello). You can hear and discover bands now over the internet, iTunes, mp3. Turn off your radio. Disregard their charts.

I love free music as much as the next guy, but buying the music you like, downloading it, and making your own "station" on your player seems like the best way to support indie bands that you like.

[vodun82]

@thepillkillz Complaining about what was played on the radio wasn't even a valid argument 30 years ago when it was a major source of music. Today when you can listen to whatever you want, wherever you want, whenever you want it's just pathetic.

[neverbeen2]

@thepillkillz until that perfect day you can try 'bbc 6 music' radio station :):) as near as it get's .

[xoxoshotgun]

@thepillkillz yes Kesha and her quite garbage-y music. i mean, sure, club music is her specialty. but oh god, not everyone goes clubbin 24/7. plus there are her sleazy lyrics. tsk. i pray for more substantial material in our mainstream music. but i could only do so much as pray....and continue listenin to good ol classic and indie. :)

[musiclover624]

@thepillkillz oooooh, i know what you mean. i know it so perfectly well.

[mrkd2k10]

those guitars look pretty indestructable to me

[clanpip]

is this chick from mold?? i'll have to go there more often!!! its only up the road.

[xclaireyz]

love this

[jdwilson76]

That's littering.

[angieyseren]

trick photography you see x

[angieyseren]

please dont worry their instruments are all fine, sitting in my front room :)

[TheJokerNr1]

i wish they wouldnt destroy their instruments...

[dfstarborn]

tut tut those was once clean mountains very bad littering from the Joy Formidable its a sad day for the mountain people ill have to write a report to the supper furry animals and they will be shocked to see the carry on in this video from the Formidable's some poor homeless kid could of used that equipment the busted up on those poor old rocks and he could be a star now instead he's rumiging through dust bins and eating out of half empty tin can's. oh dear.

[Querido17]

What an awesome song.

[Brentielal1123]

yeah, this band rox

[kaari1]

Great music!. Check out the danish band INOUWEE with the song "Liquids playing misty games" if you like this. THX!

[sicklytits888]

i have such feelings for this girl that i know, then i heard this song, makes my feelings all make sense. beautful song. this is how i been feeling all month..

[hummanbird14]

please!! come to mexico¡¡¡¡ i´d really love seeing you guys¡¡¡¡¡¡¡ you are my fav band¡¡¡

[thepillkillz]

I love it when I stumble across music I never knew existed that is really good....like this!

[amyfarhan116]

share it with facebook friends! :p

[hildathenoo]

they remind me of Sleeper but more mainstream, i like it though, like the pixies but more pop - nice

[hahayourreadingthis]

you know you're pretentious fucks when you sell your shit on vinyl in the year 2010

No fucking way i'll pay these stupid fucks. too bad because its pretty good

[thomasimon]

@hahayourreadingthis It's not pretentious but smart, because cd sells have plummeted with downloading taking over, but vinyl is starting to come back, because it feels enormously cool to hold it in your hands in put on.

[angieyseren]

@thomasimon Couldnt have put it better myself thomasimon, mind you doesnt alter the fact that hahayoureadingthis is a knobhead!

[thomasimon]

@angieyseren I won't judge about that, since I have only known him for such a short time. However, would there be a good reason for me to think of him as a knobhead(him having a knob shaped head for example) please do warn me!

[TheMTFaces]

So weird the way I heard about this band, they came into my college and like had a chat with my whole music class lolz, so ive met them before i knew who they were and now im loving thier music.

[soulderby]

They make a good indie racket!! ;)

[samueleverett4]
