kooler than jesus

[MoviManATL]

Does anyone know what the "I was raised in Mississippi" is sampled from?

[v73k1]

If there were no Revolting Cocks, would there be Thrill Kill Kult?

[darrenkills]

Great music video or greatest music video?

[8DaddyThe]

allright what does this song mean? that jesus did not want to create. i am like so cool that i talked him into it.

[mojomike]

@8DaddyThe The song is about television, the electric messiah, an AC/DC god that everyone sits down before and worships with mindless devotion, while they are just manipulating you, that is all that they are doing. Mostly into becoming dumber and buying more junk and medications and buying into propaganda (I'm looking at you Faux News..)

[spiritusinvacuo]

@mojomike thanks :)

[severnyaquarius]

@mojomike I'd go broader to suggest it's about man in general who possesses an electrical body system and about anyone who attains a position of power to an audience(hearers)and develops a blase or preference based attitude that 'Everyone uses everyone' trading sympathy in a most base way. We should be wary inside and out.

[tarzanboey]

this song was when i was lost but when i got my life back this song made me sick to my stomach this song was in another life i thank God he forgives but i had to lsten to this song straight to understand how the devil wks 24.7 i thank you for shareing this so i could just see how lost i once was but i you beleive JESUS FORGIVES i am living proof of it

[otterboi26]

@tarzanboey LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL, pile of horse shit. Your goin' to hell

[HailDarkened]

@tarzanboey Then why are you even looking at this video? Why even comment on it if it makes you that sick?

[countchocula981]

@tarzanboey what a crock of shit! religion is for the weak minded who cant think for themselves!

[darrenkills]

@tarzanboey Could you please explain what exactly makes you sick about this song?

[qphamdo]

yessssssssssssssssssssssssssss­ssssssssssss i luv my 90s industrial. so much better than emo goths

[otterboi26]

Such a great track. TKK were only good because Thomas Thorn was in the group, the day he left they went to SHIT!

[skrapyard444]

@otterboi26 i hear people say that...but from what i understand Buzz wrote pretty much everything...Thomas Thorn was just a touring keyboardist...and he cant be that good cause EHC is terrible...and also most of that stuff was written by Shane Lassen

[otterboi26]

@skrapyard444 oh have no doubt he didn't write much, if any, of their music. But the day he left and took his satanic views with him, they started their whole disco sex music thing, which sucked. I myself love EHC but it's not for everyone. Regardless this is such a great song.

[skrapyard444]

@otterboi26 he REALLY didnt have that much influence on them at all...the satanic stuff was their idea and it was just them goofing off and using it for artistic purposes, dont believe me just check out the Final Blindness video, so even after he left it was still there..

[TheBoozerman]

wow what a blast from the past! did lots of dope listing to this sh..t

saw them in dallas at the video bar fu..cen great!!!!!

[TheBoozerman]

wow what a blast from the past! did lots of dope listing to this sh..t

[JadecloudAlchemist]

Best Easter song ever

[jasonbigelow]

Soundtrack to my teen years.

[TheOM3G4]

Kooler than...god. Best part of the song

[zhadani]

sounds almost identical to "Stupid Girl" by garbage... any of them would later form Garbage?

[darrenkills]

@zhadani I don't hear any similarity at all :-/

[pjflapjack]

{{speaking in tongues///speaking in tongues}} kooler than jesus. ..the ac/dc god.

[unc112]

great band to see live too

[cm2dude]

This is on Zarathustra's playlist.

[zhadani]

@cm2dude LMAO!!! XD

[TheEvilsexy]

I bet Jesus likes this song he's probably got it on his ipod :)

[pdragonproductions]

@TheEvilsexy Prolly :-D

[glueconcern]

thee ac/dc god!

[TheMercman51]

@glueconcern no its THE ac/dc god. it comes from an old peter otoole movie where he is crazy and thinks he's jesus after his father's death. the shrink brings this guy in that can throw electricity and who claims to be god himself so that otoole stops thinking he is almighty. weird movie, great song

[glueconcern]

@TheMercman51 AHHH, I shall check that out...thanks for the clarification...

[Freshhhhh1982]

@Rachelwoods09 What a dumb comment.

[roddiero]

@Rachelwoods09 People who are kooler than Jesus necessarily like this song.

[otterboi26]

One of the best songs ever to come out of Thrill Kill Kult!!!! Thomas Thorn, kooler than GOD!!!!!

[krakabash]

This sounds like Depeche Mode, if Depeche Mode had pubic hair.

I did not say balls because, like Depeche Mode, this bad also has no balls.

Jesus had huge balls.

[zynthysys]

MLWTKK and KMFDM both came from Wax Trax records. That also includes PIG, Front 242, Meat Beat Manifesto, Sister Machine Gun, the KLF, and to a degree Ministry and Revolting Cocks

WAX TRAX 4 LYFE

[funeralhome]

just saw them last night at gramercy theater in nyc- THEy STILL KNOW HOW TO PUT ON A fucking SHOW!!! amazingggggg energy and hot dirty sex magic!!!!

[stinkstabber62]

[Arabesquian]

Pat Robertson, eat your heart and brains out!

[arachnodongle]

OMG. fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap, woooohooo. and i'm spent.

[MissFormald3hyd3]

I was jammin to this on Pandora a few weeks ago walking to work.

[devilsweat138]

this video makes me think of so many things at once. I think I was 8 or 9 when i first saw this on my brothers VHS of a collection of Industrial videos.

[Mephiles55510]

i love this song it kicks ASS

[14icedtambourines]

ahhh i just discovered brini maxwell....that is her saying "isn't that nice" i am almost positive of it.

[gzussturbo]

I saw TKK live with ministry and hanzel und gretyl and it was one of the best shows I have ever been too!!! It is a privilege to see TKK live, if you're not bopping then you are deaf or have no soul.

[spxmet]

AC/DC golf?

[totalphail]

@spxmet 

[pjflapjack]

alright. . .alright. . alright, EVERYTHING. . .

[NecroWhore]

[sloanmidwestXTC]

@NecroWhore The original version off of the kooler than jesus ep or 12in or whatever it is

[jhhanuman9]

where do you find original mlwttkc music? has it all been bastardized?

[liquidgee13]

But are you kooler than My Life With The Thrill Kill Kult?

[liquidgee13]

Up until I heard this song I had thought that I was the electric messiah, the ac/dc god ... oh well, another of my delusions torn asunder.

[rowland2110]

Nah.. I dont believe god is so seriously serious.

[xxxIzekeIxxx]

we goin crazy a lil bit yall

[stevster85]

I'm dancing

[ralan40]

They've mastered the art of sampling with pure originality..like a musical collage...very few groups have been able to do this and maintain a degree of originality..and the videos match that, visually.....it is delightfully evil!

[Hershizzle]

im the electric messiah

[Astatine222]

It wont be so bad then -_-

[jakemurphy12]

amazing as fuck! cooler than jesus!

[mordotron]

Pinkie and the Brain??

[scotter420wigb]

Killer Song, even better "on weed"! ...medical for preventing glaucoma

[sipes13]

Thrill Kill Kult is kooler than God, fuck your mom.

[mightymurdermidget]

I heard this song in my boyfriend's car recently. We both thought the lyrics said something about a two headed jesus and now we want to market a double-ended dildo called two headed jesus, haha.

[totalherenow]

@mightymurdermidget oh man, that is soooooooooooooooooooooooooo funny! I'd buy one just to hang in my office at university.

[burgercide]

@mightymurdermidget yeah

[Gmancrap]

Are you hot? Wanna hook up?

[ThePoisonDoor]

KOOLER THAN... GOD!!!

[MyThrillKillKult]

Great song

[tedzodd]

Yum!

[MockEmpire]

kooler than horus

[darksurvivor00]

yeah!

I thought it was just me that noticed Jesus and Horus are the same.... The sun xD

[RoyLikesKMFDM]

i found this between an assload of kmfdm songs(wich are awsum), and this is really sad... cuz this sucks!!!

[spookmonster52]

You have no class. If you don't like it you can at least take the time to validate your juvenille industrial elitist opinions with a better argument then "... cuz this sucks!!!". Or just not say anything. KMFDM are not bad, but give me MLWTKK anyday.

[jdsport72]

I love my MLWTTKK "KOOER THAN JESUS" tshirt!

[Gmancrap]

So good!

[thetoecutterr]

this band is fucking intense AND I LOVE IT

[rhettintaipei]

wow that song is still hitting!!

[rhettintaipei]

yup, how can the windy city give up so much nice music,,,,

[rhettintaipei]

no coincidence that its from Chi town:)

[rhettintaipei]

WAX TRAX FOREVER!!

[portugesebreakfast]

It seems that whenever people reminisce about Industrial music TKK are completely forgotten,they are no less Industrial than:NIN,KMFDM,Skinny Puppy,Front Line Assembly,Nitzer Ebb,or BauHaus. Perhaps more dance oriented and ironic,however,no less Industrial. Awesome song,certain classic.

[gangstaginamontana]

you forgot one more, a very important one that TKK even worked with; MINISTRY!

[portugesebreakfast]

You are so right,Ministry completely slipped my tiny mind. Good call Gina.

[ModernNosferatu]

Don't forget the Skatenigs..Revolting Cocks...Electric Hellfire Club...The Tear Garden...Doubting Thomas..and I can go on and on

[liquidgee13]

TKK is just industrial ... they range into disco, lounge, jazz, rock, garge and surf all while maintaing a certain element of accpetalbe sleaze.

[Merely]

♥

[BSG75]

You can spot Thomas Thorn from The Electric Hellfire club in there playing keys.

[butheadVSbevus]

Kooler than jesus kooler than god!!!!!

[Teiwaz1977CMS]

Gotta love TEXAS music!!

[johnwwillie]

I remember people used to think I was satanic for listening to this song... What Ever.... I just thought it had a good beat, and you could dance to it...

[gaywitches4aborshun]

Man, what crazy memories from 1990 this video brought back.

Crack was stronger back then.

[ampdup8]

Last time I heard this was at Club Manray in Boston in the early 90s. Those were the days!

[cman7142000]

this song killed at ll the clubs in NY 90,91....great mixing

[eisenkreuzmusik]

Our Lives With the Thrill Kill Kult

[jjames9826]

ugh..back in my drug daze....lol

[TheTownPidgeon]

o_O.. This is one of meh all time fav's of Tkk xD!! anyone selling any merch ! Ill buy :P

[DimSumPanic]

It's a little known fact that this is the greatest song of all time

[cman7142000]

M an its been a long time since i heard this. I heard this last @ a club in NEW HAVEN,CT CALLED(THE MOON).cool song.....

[blackowl6]

Nothing more dangeroud than a half hearted over funded catholic pretending to be your saviour...............

[evildnalor]

I was raised on high speed chicken feed.

I am the electrik messiah.

[sw1pe]

Sometime in the early 1990s, my mom, without consulting me beforehand of course, threw out my "Kooler Than Jesus" T-shirt! :-)) Oh, and also :'(

[uglysack]

I just spat yogurt on to the ceiling via the one eyed trouser demon! Nice! Thanks for posting!

[djwolfboy]

Actually, this song lifts it's main quote ("I'm the electric messiah! The AC/DC God!") from the movie "The Ruling Class", a must-own movie.

[blackowl6]

MMMM,Power Numbers......;)

[blackboots6969]

love this vid.....raised on crazy? yes catholicism

[boysioux]

"AC/DC" (GOD) = After Christ/Devil Comes! I think that happened a LONG, LONG time ago, this song is definitely a contender for the second coming in my book! AWESOME band, AWESOME song, and a RIGHTEOUS vid! "You know they're just manipulating you and that's all that they're doing!" -about televangelism? It was post-Jim Bakker's horsesh*t, stealing money from unwell, indigent seniors, FOR SHAME! The REAL "God's" gifts are FREE, Hello?! Or am I just on glue? harhar! =)

[iliadav]

Hey man, I think you miss the point. TKK was about fun and silliness, not serious theological research :) Electric messiah = AC/DC God. The song is huge.

[pentaxsubversion]

omg the same dude that posted that killer 1989metalica video when they were good , you have great taste in music i love this song 2

[dittttta]

Is Jesus cool?

[zboy812]

This video is way cooler than Jesus ever was!

[guessme22fan]

no1 is cooler then JESUS!! FUCK THIS

[uglysack]

Your comment made me feel nice inside. Kind of walm and squishy, and itchy, in a good way. The way that Jesus makes me feel. Thanks for posting your comment!

[xlioilx]

LSD is way cooler then jesus and thats what this video is talking about jesus is some fucking little homeless guy in a book that nut jobs read and use to start wars with and act like the worlds biggest douche. fuck jesus send him back to Mexico!

[martegod]

We don't really want Jesus here in Mexico!

ahhahaha

[thejerseydude]

Jesus is pretty cool. In reality Jesus is probably cooler than this. I don't believe in him, but this video is only a political statement about an experience, how it feels perhaps to be on drugs. It's your choice of whether to take this seriously, or just as an artistic statement. I think this is a very clever, fun artistic statement.

[roddiero]

Jesus is considerably less cool than this.

-

Jesus is what we generally refer to as a "crock of shit."

Crocks of shit are not cool.

This video/song is way cool.

Ergo, this is kooler than Jesus.

[andy765gtr]

unfortunately for christians, even if jesus was cool it wouldnt want to be associated with unfashionable godbot losers :)

luckily for them his image is shite, leading scholars to agree that he wasnt cool. pretending you are god, having a beard, wearing smelly rags, having a coterie of bum chums and no girl friend is not cool. and preaching a load of totally unfunny pretentious rubbish is a fashion no no under any circumstances.

not ever existing isnt cool either.

[2redaces]

This video looks like it was made by an altar boy with ADD. Trippy.

[sciencedoggy]

Everything is cooler than Jesus. That's not hard to do. But this song is cooler than just about any other out there.
