Oh man, any version of this song is freaking wonderful!!!! Repeat, repeat and repeat... Nikki's bassline is pretty good on that one. "Kissing Families" must be included in all "best songs in 2000's decade list" around the world. SSPU rocks!
Silversun pickups are definitely one of the best bands to come out of this decade amongst auto-tuned "artists"( if you can even call them that) anyway. i love that they sound as good & sometimes better live than they do in studio...true talent as such seems a rarity these days. anyways thnx 4 posting
@sammysnakejones hahaha nice :) I can play this song on bass, guitar, and drums same as Lazy Eye and Little Lover's So Polite. Awesome band. Seen them live four times. :)
Yeah Im a singer/guitarist and I love when drummers just keep it simple, I get annoyed by all the crazy rolls and triggered double bass, I love the idea of a two piece drum set
does anyone know the chord progession at the "soon you'll be there too" part....... up until he says "we'll kissing families can't recall". I also can't figure out the solo.
its like....i dont know the specific name but its a combo of the D string on the 7th fret and the G string on the 6th fret, then its slid down to the 9th and 8th string, the high pitch chord prog. is the a D and G string power chord on the 14th and 16th frets, the those strings are played on the 14th fret barred, im probably gunna post a cover of this song
Green Day Used to be good, now they're too, "OHH The ENVIRONMENT!!!!" whatever happened to singing about being a Basket Case, or being so smashed/high that your Brain feels like Stew? to be honest, these guys are awesome, but from what I've heard from their latest album, they're too synth oriented now.
You've go me wrong mate, I think just about got enough brain cells to know that sspu is Not nickleback. I was just carrying on a previous conversation stating that I've seen both bands last month and thought they were both awesome.
But I don't mind being called stupid if it makes you feel good.
Hey guys, seriously Nickleback was one of the best gigs I've ever been to. They rocked the house down at the NIA in Birmingham, along with Black Stone Cherry. Can't help it, I love them.
Just got in from their gig at the O2 academy Birmingham, they were awesome. This month have been to see Nickleback, Kings of Leon, Christy Moore, Bruce Springsteen and now Silversun Pickups. Its been brilliant.
@whistle27 Seriously Nickleback were brilliant in concert, everyone's entitled to one cheesy band in their life time. I know I really should be, but I refused to be embarrassed. I dragged my kids to Nickleback (my the Lord forgive me) but I dragged them to SSP too, so that should earn me a place in music heaven. SSP are out of this world, hope they come back to the UK soon.
Going to see them in Birmingham soon, can't wait. Absolutely love this version. Never heard of them until I heard No secrets This Year on the radio. Swoon arrived today and now awaiting Pikul. Their music is beautiful and I especially love the drummer.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
tHAT VOICE IS THE WEIRDEST ( I DON'T KNOW IF THAT WORD exist, i'm no tspeak english) well...the thing is that hhis voice is like a kid but with woman but strange and cool...strange
Just amazing.. their new album really extends what I felt was a great era of musiK. it's pumpkinesh.. but its so their own... with levity and more open sampling.. the drumming is also a bit unique to Silversun, Kudos to the drummer for really finding a rythym that seems to fit the musiK.
Music is best when its not a difficult mixture of whatever. Silversun Pickups always try to play songs in a simple way and i like that. Sounds natural, like music shoul be. So, i hope to find more from them soon on youtube :P
hes still good though i always use to think he had a soundboard cnnected to brians guitar cause f those fantastic delays but it actually is brians genius :D
