  • サーフっぽいソロがナイス dead kennedysにも通じるかな ウフッ!

  • Brilliant at the time and still today.

  • I need a high quality version of this shit

  • Just a great song. I like but don't love the Cramps but man they got it perfect for the 3:41 here. Plus I think Poison Ivy gave me my first woodie in this video

  • Yeah!

  • Shockingly good, 30 ish years on.

  • dirty and crunchy guitar solo....short and perfect

  • wow oh wow

  • Greatest Rock & Roll Band ever! Wish there was more of this caliber. One of a kind, for sure!

  • My band played at some punk venue and there was all these twats with mohawks and studded leathers. I yelled into the mike "YOU AIN'T NO PUNKS YOU PUNKS!" we then proceded to play a ten minute version of bird is the word heavily influenced by The Cramps. Yeah they really loved that. 30 plus angry skin/punks is a scary sight hahaha

  • R.I.P. lux interior and poison ivy, you are a fucking awesome guitarist! the cramps were so underrated it pisses me off! great band! best female guitarist in the history of music! great sound! great lyrics! keep it evil!

  • yeah it's just what you need when you're down in the dumps. one half hillbilly and one half punk. big long legs and one big mouth. the hottest thing from the north to come out of the south. do you understand?

    i can't lose with the stuff i use, and you don't choose no substitutes. so stick out your can 'cause i'm your garbageman.

  • I love the FUCKEN CRAMPS, RIP lux

  • is there really no quality video of this?

  • A long time ago (when the cramps were getting started) the term punk encompassed a lot more than it does now.....What we know as goth, psycho billy, death rock, hardcore, and even some psychedelic was once known as punk. Labels don't matter to anyone but corporations so they can sell you an image of that label. "If you're punk you'll love these guys with mohawks" is the mentality. Punk is what you want it to be.....what YOU think it is.

  • @stooges666 I thought it was someone who likes it in the ASS?

  • Comment removed

  • The legend of Lux Lives!

    Like the legend of Dracula!

    He'll be back!

    In our nightmares!

  • Happy Birthday Lux!! If you can't dig this - you can't dig nuthin!!

  • Now that's a performer..First heard this when I was 15 in New Zealand in 1985, and good god it still kicks ass. Still listen to this all the time. Part of what made the Cramps so cool is that were never mainstream, not even 'alternative'; they were like a secret that got passed around and only the very cool or very bad got to know about. Fucin' loved them then, and fuckin' love them now. RIP LUX, and if I believed in god I'd get him to bless you too Ivy, if you ever read this. You both rock.

  • He will always be my garbageman <3 RIP Lux

  • Skulldini is a pretty cool guy.

    Eh speaks Nadsat and doesn't afraid of anything.

  • halloweentastic

  • So there I was happily into Throbbing Gristle, M, The Flying Lizards, PiL thinking it couldn't get more weird and wonderful than that. Then this video came on The New Music, and I went 'oh shit...' I think this song hit in '79 - vamping music some 25 years prior. Over 30 years later, it STILL kicks ass! There will never be another Lux, ever!

  • what year?

  • a big influence of the Jesus and Mary Chain

  • outstanding!!!!

    

  • OBEY

  • Épatant, comme on dirait en français… simply incredible.

    The best of all : the sound of guitars. Only Lux’s voice, two guitars and just a few drums… that’s alchemy !!

  • I dig this. And thanks for your sadness.

  • do ya uunderstannnddd?

  • I wonder if they paid and schedueld to use that cemetary, .. or did they perhaps sneak in and film on the sly ?

  • R.I.P. Lux Interior

  • This song is perfect!

  • This song is perfect!

  • Low quality 

  • the intro reminds me of an old surf instrumental

  • @TheShaman74 yeah they totally took it from an old song, I forget the title but it's definitely lifted. It is featured somewhere on songs the cramps taught us.

  • HEY...THIS SHIT IS SUPPOSED TO BE A MISFITS MIX VID....WTF!!

  • I bought this on vinyl when it was brand new & I never knew this had a video.. holy shit, awesome.

  • YOU AIN'T NO PUNK YOU PUNK !

  • bad ass song fuck yeah

  • bad ass song fuck yeah

  • bad ass song fuck yeah

  • bad ass song fuck yeah

  • bad ass song

  • Poison Ivy is very very cool!!!!!!!!!!!

  • kick ass band

  • Lux, Peter Murphy, Siouxsie - who the hell would want to be a teenager nowadays anyhow?

  • The COOLEST rocknroll LP ever recorded!

  • @TheStrainers Yeah, Songs The Lord Taught Us! It was also a true vanguard or watershed album which inspired a whole musical subgenre, yet never has recieved it's proper due from moron critics and historians.

  • @Skulldini this was the first of first! nothing compares before or after. This started so much. I reflect on it still all these years later and is one of my biggest influences period do dot man.

  • one half hillbilly and one half punk!

  • Repo man : what a movie ! what a soundtrack !

  • 11 people missed the like button

  • Miss them

  • you gotta live until you're dead

  • If you like punk music then you should post your best or favorite punk video about what is punk, cause I don't know. But Lux will tell ya and teach you how to be cool in one easy lesson. 'A'

  • you dont fuck with the garbage man!!

  • fucking great

  • One of the best Punk songs and clips of ALL TIME.

  • rip lux >:(

  • What guitar did Ivy use in the early days?

  • @StickyVinny It was a Lewis guitar, made by a Canadian luthier. I don't think there are many around because I think the guy made them all by hand. In other words, I don't think they were mass produced. And the guy died, so that's another reason why there aren't many of them around. David Gilmour has one. I read that it was used to hit those high notes on "Money", because it's got 24 frets. There's more information out there on the 'net, should you want to look into it.

  • @StickyVinny Vinny, by way of p.s.: I forgot to mention that in the EARLIEST days of the Cramps Ivy used one of those plexiglass Ampeg/Dan Armstrong guitars--the ones that had a removable pickup, as used by Keith Richards circa 1969 or 1970. There's a clip of Keith Richards showing it to Hendrix backstage before the Stones played a gig. Anyway, that's the kind of guitar Ivy used before she got the Lewis guitar, which I mentioned in my previous reply to your question here.

  • WOW, I LOVE THIS SONG! =^..^=

  • What a track! I love how Lux pulls moves with irony that Jagger does with conviction.

  • Still one of my all-time favourite posts. Never heard of the Cramps 'till I started cruising Youtube :D

  • Its just what you need when you're down in the dumps . . .

  • great tune!

  • one half HILLBILLY & one half PUNK

  • How did they get Lux into a shirt?

  • what a riff !!

  • One of my fave song

  • stick out yo can's!

    LUX R.I.P.

    Thanks for sharing

  • human fly and garbage man are my alltime favorites!! nothing can change that! just love those intros!

  • que buen sonido

  • I'm feeling just sadistic and proud when I listen CRAMPS!!!!

  • Great movie upload thank you!

  • i never really listened to the cramps...think im gonna start though, diggin this song

  • I saw this on late night tv on a show called Video Concert Hall in 1980. I thought it was the coolest thing I had ever seen. Of course I was 14 then, but it is still cool today.

  • The Greatest band in the Universe still makes me pee my pants. Stay sick, turn blue.

  • Excellent.

    I can only assume Bryan G was deliberately trying to play like that here as he in fact was a pretty nifty guitarist.

    Ivy is of course a Goddess in this clip, as always. And Nick Knox is a fine, fine looking man.

    And truly, what can I add about Lux that hasn't already been said?

    Genius. Now I Have to go dig out this album - I know it's here somewhere!

  • @NewWaver80014 Gregory sadly got into junk )in real life) did a runner with the takings one night. Which possibly led to him being ousted and he go back to the unknown. The same shit killed him ultimately. But I must admit he looked good...

  • @PoireauMan68 Actually, Bryan was also in a couple groups in the late 80s/early 90s, including Beast and Veil. As you probably are aware, his younger sister was The Cramps' original drummer!

  • The Cramps are my all-time favorite rock ' n roll group. They had everything that I value and admire in a rock ' n roll groupe,.. a really cool and distinctive musical sound, weird image sense, demented humor, and an affinity for the fantastic and macabre. And, I dare say, no group has ever sported a finer frontman than Mister Lux Interior !

  • @Skulldini I sure wish guys like Lux were immortal so they could go on making cool music and giving amazing performances into infinity,.. cause guys like him are all-to rare in this bland dreary world, let me tell ya so !

    R.I.P. Lux Interior,.. and while all the dolts and lunkheads are boo hoo hoo-ing the demise of Micheal "King of Pop" Jackson, I shall be wearing MY vail for none but the great mad daddy of the rock 'n roll netherrealm !
