AGE OF ELECTRIC "UNTITLED"

[ravenouscolonelhart]

Awesome song, such attitude. Nice video too. Where was it filmed?

[thedealbreaker]

@ravenouscolonelhart

Thanks! We filmed it in Winnipeg in the middle of the legislative building there. The room is awesomely called "Pool of the Black Star"

[feffytoons]

It's about rock dying.. Aoe was a hybrid band that didn't get heard of. Todd brought ass kicking 80's rock to Ryan's manic alt rhythms. This band got caught by the undertow of media & grunge, lost like my youth..

[Kwdog75]

I beyond miss this band!!! Greatest band off all time!!!!!!!!

[hardstyling905]

What is the meaning of this song anyone?

[MrPanictank]

I actually have this video on a VHS tape, somewhere. Along with Ugly, and a few other bands from around Winnipeg (some of which never got their videos even aired on Much Music). My father is friends with people in the business, so we usually got to experience neat stuff, like seeing videos before they were released. Great video, by the way. Always been one of my favorites. :D

@MrPanictank

Glad you like it! I directed it. Now I wonder who your dad is...

[KillingJoke696]

sounds like Ian Astenbury

[mimickick]

Great band. I've been a fan since I first heard "Ugly"... hope they are rediscovered by the next generation through the immortality of the internet...

[wyteninja]

so so so great.. this is real music!

[hippieson]

This is an awesome song! I loved the video and song as soon as I heard it, but I forgot the details and have been trying to remember it ever since.. 15 years later I've finally found it again! Thanks for the vid!

[kylejulescrook]

this song is sweet and he is first nations indian.

[PedroRiot]

this song is pure musical awesomeness. they wrote many good songs, but this one will past the test of times. The video is amazing too, you can really feel the attitude and the beauty of the song. the bassist is fucking badass and the singer's vocal lines are sick. anybody know what theyre up to today?

[thedealbreaker]

@PedroRiot - anybody know what theyre up to today?

Glad you like the vid! It was my second time directing a music video (back in the day).

The singer is playing bass in slash's new band

The guitarist went on to form limblifter and is now doing a solo thing (Ryan Dahle)

The drummer is in the New Pornographers

The bass player, I'm not sure about.

Thanks again!

[friedrich420]

@PedroRiot another of them went on to form a band called "Static in Stereo" ...

[thedealbreaker]

@friedrich420

Yeah. He's now playing bass in Slash's band. His name is Todd Kerns.

[valleygirl123]

OMG, i'm so glad somebody posted this!!!

[jfalkins]

Loved these guys back in the day ! This was probably my favourite tune of thiers too !

[ferbobian]

...saw these guys many times before they went big with Ugly and Remote Control...this tune is easily my favorite....excellent guitar solo

[bronchiti]

love this song

[sinning1966]

Awesome song. Ryan's solo is the best in there. I always prefered Ryan from all four members too for that.

[ontheturn]

the double kick drum made me wanna learn drums,practiced this song forever when i was 13 in 97' much love for age of electric and limblifter

[MrBlackDeath69]

can't say i heared any double kick beats at all? you should be able to play the bass in this song with one foot all the way through

[chewbacca1010]

I think this track would make for good opening credits to a film for some reason.

[psychicmom]

That's interesting. Never thought about it until now.

[str33nz]

They came to my highschool in like 1997.. crazy thinkin bout it now 12 years later

[chelseabinx]

my fave age of electric song

velvet revolver should have picked him up when they had the chance

[MrBlackDeath69]

yeah they should have, now look what their choice did for them. I think STP and scott weiland are over rated. can't say i like a single song by them.

[mrgiggles10]

love this tune im gonna see mr kerns and his new band sin city sinners in vegas over christmas hope he does the old aoe tunes

[T3zx]

mat good used this for weapon its more or less the same riff

[dgb3129]

still dig this song cuz its that good if your into it that is!

[liklepaul]

Great band. Todd was always very cool. The drummer, Kurt, was a total dick to the fans. I blame the Dahle brothers for the breakup of this band.

[crazynofaith]

Fuck I love this song. It changed my life forever. I was 12 years old when I first heard this. Automatically, I went from dance music to Alternative/ Hard Rock. Became a huge fan of these guys, and used to write friends of the AOE religiously. Broke my heart when they split. Definitely one of Canada's best. Would love to see them reunite. Thanks for posting this, brings back awsome memories.

[BillBillard]

hey dudeicus

don't cling too much to these dudes, like my uncle who's like, "ac/dc and led zep are the end-all of music and i'm an old curmudgeon like hank hill" aoe, great?  hell yes! but check wolf parade, sunset rubdown, destroyer, arcade fire, black mountain, death from above 1979, malajube, broken s.s., etc, etc, etc,

don't mourn, celebrate!

[thedealbreaker]

small country. well. thanks for checking out the vids again!

[scarbelly69]

Derek Horn did these videos as well as the Limblifter ones.

[thedealbreaker]

hey sherlock. all you need do is look at my submitter's screen name and the director credit from the film of the same name.

[thedealbreaker]

no way! you friends with christian or andy?

[ferbobian]

...awesome song. saw these guys live before they went their seperate ways.  It was very...inspiring. Their best song easily...

[mystillicious]

Oh my goodness!!!! The way they all play their instruments is flippin insane!! And the way this video was shot really shows that. There is something so special about these guys. I was so in love with Todd when I was like 14!! I got to hug him at EdgeFest '97!! Good times :D

[mikecapricorn2006]

when is this from

[thedealbreaker]

1994

[mikecapricorn2006]

it sounds almost like something from todat, i like remote control, can you believe today was the 1st time i realized theses guys did ugly?

[ressedeltoro]

I think this was shot in the Legislative Building in Winnipeg, on the main floor...I do know that Ugly was shot in the Hotel Fort Garry...we rock like that here

Great Video , thank you once again for posting it...you rock

[thedealbreaker]

[thedealbreaker]

thanks for the offer. who's chris h?

[Rabsolo]

Amazing song from a great album, what happened to them?

[ressedeltoro]

You get the first sip, of the last full glass, of nothing, I'd say

By far one of the most poetic bands in Canadian music history.

It will last

[ressedeltoro]

Fucking awesome tune, and holy shit theres a video for it !!!!

Thank you for posting one of my all time fav songs !!!!

[jonnyI3]

[Stanzmastertron4000]
