Wipers - Doom Town

[imslicc]

just discovered them. they sound like the 2000 rock revival...

[Ausiegingerkid]

Greg Sage was a genius and all the panty clad clowns who claim themselves punk, or "Indy", can just bugger off!! THIS IS PORTLAND!!!!!!!!! (Oregon, fool!!)

[josveldhuis88]

nice music

[TheEnchantingWizard1]

Such a great album. In my personal Top 20 of all time, for sure.

[echuu2740]

damn these guys are nasty. Why have I only heard about them now?

[altroval]

One thint that always surprised me about Greg Sage is that he's actually right-handed - but plays the guitar left-handed. Does anybody know why he does that?

I say lets bring them back. I'm going to try and I'm not kidding. Check some of my songs and let me know what you think or what it needs. I will listen. Just by your post (regardless if it's been a year {hopefully your still on your channel} you seem to care about music like I do, which means you've been observant. Talk to me when you can, if you can, when you can, if you see this. Peace. bye. Saliva....saylahvee!

[dirtynuke]

Doom.....town.....doom.....tow­n

[NirvanaNerd364]

But if you were born in the 80's or 90's youd have to live through the hip hop/rap era at an older age making you die either at the start or bfore the era of new rock which is bound to come sooner or later.thats just my opinion.

[CzechAvailabilitie]

@NirvanaNerd364

P.E. were pretty good and Tupac was a fucking intellectual warrior-poet.

[NirvanaNerd364]

@CzechAvailabilitie Totaly

[HelicopterHoneymoon]

I used to ride my bike around my shithole town when I was in highschool, playing this song on my shitty walkman, over and over again. Now I am a grown ass man and I drive to my shitty job in this shithole town in my shitty truck and crank this song everyday and wonder why the fuck I still live in such a shitty place....anyways, Thank you RJ for turning me onto the Wipers, and thanks Greg Sage and Co. for making some of the most amazing music that has ever graced this unworthy ball of mud.

[anelphabet]

@HelicopterHoneymoon damnit boi go to college shitt

[MrBrianlowdown]

[HelicopterHoneymoon]

@MrBrianlowdown

Thank you, glad to hear you are still listening to the real stuff!

[travisnealtodd70]

@HelicopterHoneymoon You're a poet, HelicopterHoneymoon.

[HelicopterHoneymoon]

@travisnealtodd70

Thanks, man. The Wipers bring out the best in me.

[PedroPatrol]

Take me back to the late 90's-early 2000's metalcore scene, that's obviously where I belong..

[KimInChains]

The greeks obviously have nice taste. Or at least some of them.

[kispest1979]

If the Wipers not think Nirvana would not have been!

[slimshadyrealrealrea]

@kispest1979 agreed

[TheMercuryEmperor]

To every dumbass arguing on this page, shut up. You make Wipers fans look like immature shits. Thank you.

[dirtynuke]

Nothing ever change. Remains the same. Live in a doom town.

[SmellsLikeNothing]

Fucking love the Wipers.

[666Nightshift]

Fuckin Hell!!!Straight from the heart!!!!!thanx 2 a friend of mine im hearing this again!!!!Wicked!!!

[dancing0being]

Great!!

[KimInChains]

This is beautiful music

[Jack2daBeat]

This song reminds me of The Foo Fighters same kindve style

[vortexsurfe]

@Jack2daBeat not. at. all. ;)

[Terroristicality]

@Jack2daBeat Ha ha, that's because Nirvana ripped off the Wipers and the Foo Fighters ripped of Nirvana.

[shufk77]

They call the area i live in Dooms Town.

I wish it was because of this song and not the poverty and murder.

[XheroinxchicX]

greg sage is one of the best guitarists

[clcs13]

damn this shit  is really rockin me i never heard the wipers until tonight i give it big howl

[alexissod]

ελληνας και εγω.

δυστυχως λογω ηλικιας,εμαθα τους wipers πολυ αργα,το 1997/98,δεν ειχα την ευκαιρια να τους δω ποτε λαιβ λοιπον.

παρολα αυτα,η δισκοθηκη μου κοσμειται απο όλα τα βινυλια τους,και ολες τις συλλογες που εχουν συμμετασχει,ολα τα εφταρακια.

η πιο αληθινη μπαντα εβερ της πανκ σκηνης....

[BeckMCS9876]

Great upload thanks a lot. NYC Doom Town? You decide. (Thumbs up if yes down if no)

[GarageZan]

Ως συνήθως Έλληνες χαχαχα... μια οικογένεια :-)))

[confrontjames]

I adore this band with a passion, this is just so so good...They really sound unique and completely ahead of their time.

[agostinebraga]

which pedal greg uses in that song?

[MrBrianlowdown]

to above wow you know how to make us looks dumb go a way....... to you bongtoker thats why you think its called mosh not slam dance ehh you dont relize it may not be the shit but old punks know it was a starting block 77 on the way to greater sht

[PROSTATHS]

Κάτι τέτοια τραγούδια σαν αυτό δίδουν αξία στην ζωή. Φίλε, είσαι κορυφή που το ανέβασες τούτο.

[bongtoker420]

dont mean to bring up nirvana like everyone hates but does anyone else notice the style comparison to nirvana's "sappy" it has that same emotion

[Gloriamagnificens]

@bongtoker420

Yeah, they are certainly both depressing, but I always thought "Sappy" was a clear attempt by Kurt at mixing both Beatlesque and Black-Sabbath-like styles together.

[bongtoker420]

@Gloriamagnificens i can hear the beatles influence but black sabbath? in this song? idk.....

[Gloriamagnificens]

@bongtoker420

Have you ever heard "Iron Man" by Black Sabbath? Sappy has that same dark tone that early Sabbath has, and the solo of that song is very akin to the solo of Sappy.

That said, the Wipers also had great influence on KC.

[bongtoker420]

@Gloriamagnificens ehh...i guess. like sabbath mixed with punk/alternative .

the music is similiar. but def not the vocals.

[Hollandia777]

@Gloriamagnificens

D'ya mean it!? .. Beatles and Black Sabbath!?  I'm definitely disagree...xDD

[lifestraight]

@Gloriamagnificens I know I wasn't in the conversation, but what were both depressing?

[trash13ful]

fucking love this song

[MrChampichampi]

Les français aiment ça aussi =)

[emiliano2111]

nothing ever change, remains the same. live in doom town, live in doom town...

[Kaanru90]

a lot of people started to listen wipers lately :D

great song, it's so depressing me... but still i like it

[aurlis2012]

the fuck is up with the ancient egyptian heiroglyphics in the comments?

[wifiThief]

@aurlis2012

its all greek to you? LOL

@aurlis2012 The Wipers are a cult group in Greece with many funs - the comments below are from them

[Colargolator]

@aurlis2012 It's greek

[cramps70]

@aurlis2012 Those Greeks asking if you like a Greek dick in your ass ....malaka !!!

[Jack2daBeat]

@aurlis2012 the fuck up with the comments on the heiroglyphics?

[30SecondDogWalk]

@aurlis2012 : if you knew hieroglyphics like the way that you know how to spell the actual word (which not many do) then, you would have known that it's not. Hopefully in the last 10 months of your post you learned that lesson, you fifth grade dropout.

[kingsatan]

@aurlis2012

The wipers were huge in Greece for some reason.

Straight Ahead I believe went to #2 in Greece in the 80's.

[SexyManatee2121]

Hell yeah, this song kicks ass

[AVIATIO]

Έπαιξαν και στην Ελλάδα...μα δεν το ήξερα αυτό...αλλά το πιστεύω ωστόσο. H δε φανταστική μουσική διαδίδεται παντού

[IxATExAxRAINBOW]

@AVIATIO omg,this stupid language pissed me off ;x

nice song by the way...

[AVIATIO]

@IxATExAxRAINBOW

Fuck off, you retarded piece of Polish-sausage shit. That language is Greek, probably the most influential language in the history of Europe along with Latin. Learn some respect, swine.

[IxATExAxRAINBOW]

@AVIATIO Whaat? Polish- Sausage shit? I guess you know nothing about Poland so shut the fuck up, asshole. And you can fuck off with your Greece. Maybe your language was popular so long ago, I mean in ancient times, but now it isn't. Nowadays most of people know English, not Greek,so don't call me a ''swine'' or ''Polish-sausage shit'', cuz I don't know your fucking language and it's just weird for me.. I mean your letters(?) are weird.

[AVIATIO]

@IxATExAxRAINBOW

No more than you know about Greece. I see that my comment struck a chord negatively with you. I'm glad. That's what one gets when he talks shit about an other's culture. ;)

Eh, fuck off with your gay, dirty Poland. Too bad that Hitler had not the time to finish his work there....

[IxATExAxRAINBOW]

@AVIATIO Ohhh, I know a lot of Greece -,- trust me.. We learn about your culture, history etc at school... (mostly about ancient Greece, but it's still more than you know about Poland). Now you're not sooo fucking strong, huge etc so shut up :) Better start thinking about financial crysis in ur poor country.

Why GAY and DIRTY Poland? Lol...

Eh, fuck off with your poor Greece.

[AVIATIO]

@IxATExAxRAINBOW

Thank you for proving my point exactly. Your country is such a piece of shit that no one even cares to learn about it. The only noticable mention of great importance for your country in a history book is about the Nazi invasion during WW2...LOL!  Meanwhile, you bastards live in the civilization which the Greeks and Romans developed for all Europeans..haha. Even with Greece in debt, it still outdoes Poland!

Go eat a sausage and some pierogi, du Untermensch.

[IxATExAxRAINBOW]

@AVIATIO Hahahaha, your comment makes me laugh :D I don't like ''pierogi'' and sausage too(I used to be vegetarian, but I still don't eat sausage..). But nevermind...

Why do you think my country is a piece of shit? Can you give me some reasons??

It seems you are just arrogant asshole, who thinks hes the best, couse he lives in a ''developed country'' such as Greece.. Don't forget that Greece WAS so huge, strong,developed, but now it's like other countries.. Let's break with the past, man..

[AVIATIO]

@IxATExAxRAINBOW

Hehehe...laugh all that you wish. Deep down inside, YOU know that what I say is wholly true, and since that hurts you, I'm happy now. :)

Fuck yourself, Polish beyotch.

[YourSisterIsMyWhore]

@IxATExAxRAINBOW whats in Poland? Shit or more shit? let me guess, shit and or shit...right??? take one ice-cream cone and stick it up ur pussy. KK donkeyfucked girl??? 

[IxATExAxRAINBOW]

@YourSisterIsMyWhore and whats in Greece? apart from monuments?

Ohh, I see greece people make armie here and try to provoke me :)

C'mon c'mon! :D

[YourSisterIsMyWhore]

@IxATExAxRAINBOW and what's in Poland??? Besides faggots and losers like u? you monkeys dont even know what the word 'monument' means. LOL what a joke-folk that you are.

[AVIATIO]

@IxATExAxRAINBOW

Still talking trash to people, I see. Figures that your level is so terribly low. This is simply only sad...and lame as one can be. I have pity for you. No wonder that the Polish are not known for any thing of great value. With such losers like you dwelling in that land, how can one expect some thing better of it on the whole? Hardly LOL

[YourSisterIsMyWhore]

@IxATExAxRAINBOW yea i have met polish folks, and they are all dumb as bricks. also you have a goddamned rainbow on your profile >_>

Seems to me as if you are in deed rather gay

fuck yourself now

[IxATExAxRAINBOW]

@YourSisterIsMyWhore fuck off! Do I have to be homosexual if I like rainbow? o.O Daaamn, maybe it's symbol of gays, but it doesn't mean I am gay too. oh and I am a girl by the way, so it's normal that I like colorful stuffs :D

Why do ya think we are ''dumb as bricks''? some reasons please. You're not so smart too. And I guees all people from your shitty poor Greece are also not so fucking smart :D So please- shut the fuck up.

[YourSisterIsMyWhore]

@IxATExAxRAINBOW fucking ugly-arse slut, stfu before my dick flies up yer dirty, stretched-out pussy, ya whore of 3.000 filthy corners. Polish shits, die and kill yourselves before I fuck you all. fucking monkeys, back into your caves right away where you belong.

[IxATExAxRAINBOW]

@YourSisterIsMyWhore you are more stupid than I thought..

You should go for good sex therapy or maybe masturbate some. It's obvious you haven't fuck anything from ages so you keep trollin in the net.

[loukasarg]

@IxATExAxRAINBOW I think that you are an idiot ....

[IxATExAxRAINBOW]

@loukasarg Yeah, becouse you are from Greece too..

Don't interfere to our conversation, if you haven't got anything meaningful to say.

[Gloriamagnificens]

@IxATExAxRAINBOW

I bet that your vagina is full of pus. Not even a homeless man will touch you once.... You fucking dirty slut.

Δεν ήταν το "Amnesia", ήταν το "NoName"-το λέγανε μερικοί "Ανώνυμο"...Η "Αmnesia" ήταν προς το αεροδρόμιο...

[vegitarianmeat]

Take me back to the 80's-90's, cause that's where I obviously belong..

[pacha1984]

@vegitarianmeat you belong here but your spirit is conected to the 80's and 90's by the music man, what people like you need to do is to take that spirit and make it shine again in the present, don't cry for the past make your own great present

[MTVVH1sucks]

@pacha1984 yea start a band.

WHY HAVEN'T I HEARD OF THESE PEOPLE BEFORE!?!!?

[hyperspherical]

Great song. Reminds me of early "The Cure" riffs.

[AstroFreakingDandy]

@hyperspherical

It does sounds like . Jumping on someone elses' train.

It's funny I live in Portland. Wipers' home town. And last night while I was helping a friend, he was playing The Wipers, I was like The Cure cool. And then he went and told me all about them. It's cool to find great Bands

[VeganReaction]

Amazing song

Amazing band!

[WipersLegend]

I posted several songs from Land of the Lost, Follow Blind, The Circle, Silver Sail and The Herd for anyone interested. Lets get the Wipers back out there!

[SonicYouthXXX]

dang, this song is so head on ...

[pmad3]

saw them live in thessaloniki-greece back in -85, they were GORGEOUS!!!!

[seditionary666]

This song rules.  So does the Born Dead Icons version. Born Dead Icons are worth talking about. Sonic Youth and Nirvana have already had too much "talk." Love something else that's newer, but still dead.

[boobtube356]

Doom town PDX

[bogeaqYT]

sonic youth is obviously incredibly influenced by the wipers.

[inhumanxiii]

@bogeaqYT Yeah. I definitely hear it.

[SuperJake512]

Born Dead Icons has a solid cover of this song.

[madeyes4u]

The Wipers proves that you don't have to scream your head off to be heard in a punk rock band.

I wish people in my generation would take a lesson or 2 from this band (I'm 21, by the way)

[rjcustin]

fuck you whore

[PieceofMindmusic]

@madeyes4u we are hugely influenced by this band you should check us out.....except we havent recorded our songs yet :p

[P3ngu1nPwns]

eweeeee

[Gloriamagnificens]

This is amazing. It's so different.

[HentzDude]

To all you people wondering people are mentioning Nirvana here:

Isn't it obvious this band influenced Nirvana alot (or atleast Kurt and Krist) and has much similarities with Nirvana.

Imo both bands rock!

[roejogan8]

it is obvious! the wipers are a great influence to have!

[90sRockWhore]

Greg Sage was one of those rare guitar players that tell a story with his guitar AND lyrics.

[thesliotar]

fucking amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Dlow2410]

Cor this is Joy division all over. Only jus discovered them but fuck me i like like :)

RIP IAN CURTIS + KURT COBAIN

[carsten191266]

Also my favorite. I will never forget this great crying guitars...

[Chruselle]

they sound more like the pixies,though not nirvana. the later pixies songs though such as gouge away.

[roejogan8]

nirvana sounds like them. it's great. the pixies don't because they probably never heard of them at the time they were making their music.

[Chruselle]

my favorite wipers song

[viesinada]

great song

[tholden84]

This song fuckin ROCKS!!!! I like the dark tone of it.......

[ntn777]

god dammit! is because Kurt Cobain loved Wipers jeez, have some respect

[Icantunderstandyou]

Fantastic tune, real dark sound!

[philthetremoloking]

ah...memories...

[smeier69]

For me this doesn´t sound like nirvana nor Sonic Youth.

It´s just Wipers and so it has to be!

[AICSLUDGE]

gosh tooo many people love nirvana............

[ex1le444]

@AICSLUDGE look how many records they sold -lolz

no shit....

[roejogan8]

because nirvana is great! why not love them

[jujkuj123]

Why the fuck do people keep talking about nirvana this is wipers.

[madeyes4u]

@ jujkuj123

I feel you! This doesn't sound like either of those bands, but I'm glad to be fans of all 3 them.

[roejogan8]

they keep talking about them because nirvana covered their music and have a connection with them. also exposed them to a new audience. thank you very fucking much nirvana for allowing me to hear this great fucking band. WIPERS ARE THE BEST!!

[Jhosk95]

@jujkuj123 because nirvana covered one of their songs....

[jujkuj123]

@Jhosk95

So?

(They covered 2 btw)

[Jhosk95]

@jujkuj123 So? you asked I answered...ya I forgot that they did return of the rat.

[44eelz]

@jujkuj123 cuz they were huge fans of them Duuhhhh

[GikeMoldberg]

@jujkuj123 sorry to hurt your feelings but nirvana are connected to the wipers. when a more popular band covers 2 songs of a less popular band, people check the less popular band out and thus a connection is formed! hope that wasn't too hard for you to wrap your head around little squirt!

[jujkuj123]

@GikeMoldberg

I hope you can wrap your stupid face around the fact that this still isn't Nirvana you jackass.

[GikeMoldberg]

@jujkuj123 oh i can dick. you're the one who mentioned nirvana. so you're contributing to what you have a problem with. pissy little bitch!

[GikeMoldberg]

@jujkuj123 you jus don't get it. i expected too much from you.

[jujkuj123]

@GikeMoldberg

11 months and that's all you got.

[Markus1723]

I'm not too familiar with this band but I am a huge fan of Nirvana and Kurt and Krist said this band was god to them so I wanted to check them out and so far they are great!

[slicknicknirvana]

I only listened to the Wipers cause of Nirvana's cover of D7,and almost all of their songs are awesome.

[MisterStephen777]

nirvana does return of the rat too
