Clouds "Hieronymus"

[moistie]

I saw them live a couple of times, they were great. I loved the female guitarist.

[brendamegastar]

Saw them last night in Sydney at the Enmore Theatre. Up there with INXS and Divinyls as best Aussie band of all time. Why they weren't massive astounds me.

[mrkistic]

I've created a copy of this with the stereo audio from the album. You can find it in my videos.

[100milnic]

they were good, but think had been heavily influenced by my bloody valentine, the interchanging lead vocalists & ambigious appearance look very valentine, let alone the drone with sweet vocals

[tatunkha]

@100milnic interesting comment - go look /hear at other clips/songs & see their broad range. They are a great band.

[matthk]

Why does this only have the right audio channel? Great clip, but really, delete, fix and re-upload. Please. ;-)

[MrTwistopen]

I've got a couple tracks from Thunderhead up in HD on my channel: Bower Of Bliss & Universal. Clouds are great.

[perspectivehorizon]

very g00d indeed!

[mynewid666]

This is how the pixies would have sounded if they had a good drummer.

[140598100]

@mynewid666 BLASPHEMY!!! 

[maccastacka]

Nice memories. Saw them live in Perth but can’t remember the venue. I have always loved their combination of sweet harmonies with the wall of sound guitar playing. I still have my fold out copy of Penny Century.

[letshaveafondueparty]

@maccastacka Hey me to. At the Shenton park. One of the few bands of that era that sounded as good live as the album.

[gsogoz]

I used to perform this track back in high school. Brings back lot's of great memories : )

[theproducegarden]

i was so in love with the bassist, lol

[surfclubtony]

Lent the guitarist (Dave) a copy of Pixies CD never got it back, Pixies comparisons are justified.

These were the times.

[flangebiscuit73]

@surfclubtony

I remember Jodi introducing a song at a gig, "This is a song about a superhero named Tony" ... they didn't play it tho

[spaceoreo]

Jodi sure did learn her Pixies lessons. I was in love with her.

[adolfcastro]

this doesn't do justice to how god this was live

[7223Tanya]

'4pm' needs to go to the masses doesn't it Bec? Anyway this is too cool (penny century ref there)

From 2:46 is how girls and guitars should go together

[becy]

omg i loved this band so much... I'll never forget seeing them in 92. I wish I could find a version of 4pm on here.

[Conniptions886]

Great track, great band - "Alchemy's Dead" is brilliant, play on my radio shows all the time...

[Fezzwah]

God I love my Penny Century LP 12" :)

[PalladiumTV]

Aussies ??

[myauralfixation]

Yes, they're Australian :) I saw this band so many times. The girls were a local inspiration to female musicians in my generation.

[bossabrasileira]

thats a great band!! it really makes my 90's... a brother send that cd from aus, and here in brazil it did rocks as an alternative anthen at that time! cheers from brazil!

[plonkywonky]

By the way, check out 'Garden of Earthly Delights' by Hieronymus Bosch

[plonkywonky]

You can't buy it . You can't download it. This has been the only way I've been able to hear this song again. Very underrated band. Big thanks for sharing this.

[clinten1]

F*cking brilliant!

What I wouldn't give to see them live again!

It gives me goosebumps every time.

[goldbugnz]

Agree! F*cking brilliant!!!

[SweetSinsations1]

OMG! I HAD NOOOO idea they made video's! THANK YOU!!! THANK YOU THANK YOU!

[DerAngriff]

Yeah. I taped this song off RAGE back in the day and watched it a crazy amount of times . VHS. Thanks ABC. Darwin's sole connection to music clips came via RAGE.

[1matthew]

love the Clouds .......... Thanks for posting

[merrintrue]

WHat was the name of the director?

I think it was a lady who was renowned for doing great stuff.

Some clips from the early 90s and you think ... I wonder how much better it would have been with today's technology. But I reckon this one, especially with the clarity of the superimposed pics, holds up pretty well.

[deboehmler]

Fantastic - thanks for posting! Unfortunately indie bands of this calibre seemingly don't exist anymore..

[ehp73]

A profoundly important band for me. Loved seeing them at the Horden in Sydney...loved 'the sweetest thing' and 'foxes wedding'. Genius.

[benowa4215]

Still one of my favourite music videos of all time...

[ugotmatt]

What a great band/song/clip!! Like everyone else - where have the years gone - but more importanly - where are Aussie bands like this these days??? :(

[benowa4215]

I loved this band!!! So great to hear this again. Reminds me of taping Rage and watching only the videos I liked the next morning.

[malleebull75]

One of the greatest Aussie bands of the 90's, if not the best.

Every show I saw them play was absolutely cooking. They certainly don't make them like this now, do they?

[dbadagna]

My first time seeing video of a band I've listened to for years. Thank you for this. Their chord changes are so complex and chromatic in comparison to most other indie bands of that period; I wonder what in their musical background caused them to put these complex harmonies into their music.

[throwingmuse]

I forget how good this song is... Penny Century is one of the best Australian records of all time... 16 years ago, OMG, how old are we all now!

[pathdaly]

Ive been DYING to see this again! A great example of well crafted Aussie pop/rock. Nothing says pop doesnt have to have style.

[Gemear]

This is where 90s music could have headed if The Pixies held more influence over it than Nirvana. What a missed opportunity!

[cwegers]

most people don't get the pixies though

[nazlfrag]

I got a brand new CD player for my 12th birthday. The two albums I went and got were Penny Century and Trompe le Monde. I'm still undecided to this day as to which was best, but I do know they both were awesome. Thanks Kieran for the advice, and thanks Gemear for stirring those beautiful memories.

[dexdrexler]

Lurv the Clouds, what I'd give for the Boy of Air clip

[thehemulenrules]

Awesome!! Have been searching for this for ages :) Thanks!!

[bucketofwater]

Thanks for posting this. Hieronymus is in my favourite Top 10 songs of all time.
