esto apesta

Yes, it's quite similar to the original, but still different enough, and with the video that sets a non-serious tone. Both are great IMHO. Btw, is there NO video with better quality than that? You can barely see what's going on! There are fan made videos for this (tDotHT) song that have better quality than this...

[ninjabunneh]

This cover is fantastic!

[TheGreatOldOnes]

this is amazing. TDOTHT are one of my favorite bands. i didnt know this was a cover of a song by the police.

the police song is crap. this is excellence.

[Shieldz64]

@TheGreatOldOnes the original is better in my opinion, because its more refined, simplistic, and the original..these guys pave the way for musicians like tdotht. but all things aside..just fou nd this cover today...its so aweesome too!!

[SJD0309]

Giant Thicket Steps iz what u take!!!

AroooOooo!

[Zimbib270]

Why you say absurd? this cover is nowhere near the original, yes but it explores all the Orifices of music today, mingles about a bit and comes out, yes like SHIT.

Toren looks like an enema!

[OchrismongrelO]

Why is that?

[noapologiesnoregrets]

[NatSatFat]

Totally absurd cover, What a mess, ah well youth think they can do better, NOT impressed

[OchrismongrelO]

How is this cover 'absurd'? It's a nihilistic take on the song and definately conveys that them and feel through the video, which is Lovecraftian styled...and HP Lovecraft was writing horror when your granddaddy was in diapers.

Heh, this is awesome. I love the red costume.....whatever the hell it is a costume of. Keep it up.

[Mosobot64]

Hey, T. Niiiiice cover. ^^

[apuyou]

I know Merrick, my step dad is realy good friends with him. WOO GO THICKETS WOO

[JCallan]

Toren is the fucking man. He and I used to trade old cartoons back in the day. He needs to drag his ass to the US though and take his awesome band somewhere other than PAX.

[estcst2112]

You guys simply rock. That's all there is to it. Rock!

[Rhademanthus]

I LOVE YOU. Come to England!

[queenpoisonapple]

I love Toren's costume in this video!

[verivorax]

This song, for some reason, dominated the summer of 99..

[Phantomsbreath]

I know one of these guys. Toren. Not sure how to spell his name.

[Rhademanthus]

Toren McBoren MacBin.

Okay, I was a little harsh...it's actually not bad. It's just that some parts that you take from the original like the "Keep it up.." playout and Sting's famous "eee-oo" thing just aren't working with your version. It's too fast and it sounds like you just tacked them on.

[ct92404]

eh...sorry but that totally messed up the feel of the song. The original one was influenced by reggae, like a lot of the early songs by The Police, and that really was what made it so popular and catchy. I can understand having your own style, but if you're going to change it so much that it sounds absolutely NOTHING like the original, why even bother covering a Police song??

[Rhademanthus]

If a cover is going to sound extremely similar to the orignial, why even bother covering it?

I personally love this.

[cbeucherie]

fuuukin awesome you guys are getting to me .... wew misterious

[maothedongzedong]

Please come to Atlanta on your next tour!

[evildead167]

Pretty good. Not as wacked out as I would have thought for the Darkest of the Hillside Thickets, though. Love your music guys, I'm looking forward to Shadow Out of Tim.

Honestly, that's one Lovecraft story I haven't read that.  I will before I listen to your album of course.

[bathmat13]

Hey Toren! Post more videos! I have a VHS copy of the Worship Me Like a God somewhere...

[norikokakei]

OMG! I want more videos! *-*

[GothCrow]

w00t! Ia! Ia! Cthulhu fhtagn! Darkest of the Hillside Thickets PWN!!!

[shotgunreaper]

[puncheroo]
