Hot Snakes - "Braintrust"

[Nagsworth]

awesome video

[88ranced]

NOSTALGIA !!!

[mradamcooley]

probably my favorite band ever next to the sun city girls and captain beefheart. i've just listened to this band so many times. not a single bad song. amazing.

[musov]

If you've just discovered this band and this song, I highly recommend you get their album "Audit In Progress".

Then get "Drive Like Jehu - Yank Crime" which features the singer/guitarist and guitarist from this band.

Then get "Rocket From The Crypt - Hot Charity/Cut N Play, Rocket From The Crypt - All Systems Go 2, Rocket From The Crypt - Scream Dracula Scream", those albums feature the guitarist from this band.

Then look for their other projects The Night Marchers, Obits, and The Sultans.

[ModestMousearoo]

Personally I like Obits more than Hot Snakes, but they are both fuckin awesome bands!!

[teddy5549]

Reminds me of the Murder City Devils

[mattresslut]

@teddy5549 Same with Pandora's Hot Snake station, I see the comparison to FUGAZI and Unwound in their dynamic arrangements and even lyrically, but M.C.D.'s are all-around more direct in their structure. Distortion and volume seem to be the only common thread between them.

[sunchild90]

66,000 and noone can tab it?

[danielweasel]

@sunchild90 learn by ear

[sunchild90]

@danielweasel it's not easy

[notsailboats]

@sunchild90 that weasel guy could do it, if he wasn't more concerned with his banjo.

[mradamcooley]

probably the best band of the last decade. not a single bad song.

[aburtson]

Does anyone know what type of guitar John Reis is playing? It shows it in the beginning of the video. Looks like it has a p90 along with another single coil pickup.

[sirscreamalot80]

If you dig this, go check out "dial be for bewilderment" or "what's it like to be you" by pack of wolves from austria/europe. they're awesome, too!

[punker333]

that band is pure garbage

[pinetone000]

@punker333 hey that reminds me of an old saying-"fuck off."

[punker333]

good sir, i was not talking about hot snakes somekid posted a link of someband to look up if you liked the hot snakes and they were some shitty nu metal band i for one love the hot snakes

[pinetone000]

@punker333 sorry dude! my mistake. 

[punker333]

[sirscreamalot80]

If you dig these guys go check out PACK OF WOLVES from Austria. They're awesome, too!

[Alkalinetime]

[poisonpixel]

MY COCK SOUNDS BETTER THEN THIS

[likehell1]

@poisonpixel Can I use this comment as a song name?

[poisonpixel]

@likehell1

Yes. I made the comment to troll fanboys who disregard its absurdity.

[sunchild90]

@poisonpixel fuck

[mchank]

@poisonpixel does your cock have a youtube video

[CliffyGiffy]

awesome this is my new favorite song!!

[myoutboards]

i agree with the fact that i knew they kicked arse within the first 10 seconds when i heard "this mystic decade" on pandore radio online. my new favorite band!

[FoxNewsMustDie]

hot snakes are way better than hot rats.

more tasty.

[Icantunderstandyou]

I know it sounds ridiculuos but I knew I liked this band within the first 10 seconds, what a great intro!

[Icantunderstandyou]

ridiculous*

[ACadaver]

Not at all. What's ridiculous is people hearing an entire song from this band and not liking them - that's just fucking silly.

[TheYellowDiscipline9]

@ACadaver

The first time I heard this band.. and THIS SONG... I knew it could be one of my favorite bands ever.

[eb0nikz]

i felt the sameway the first time i heard them.

[FoxNewsMustDie]

not liking this band is a crime against humanity

[eb0nikz]

in some countries, retarded too.

[Rottigator]

yeah I just had a feeling that this was gonna be awesome.. :D and I was right.

[OfficerMcGroist]

HAHA what the fuck's up with that dance john reis keeps doing

[kidkrim]

such a good band

[bjjmonkey]

It's amazing how crappy yet cool this music video is. I guess it's all about the music. I'm going to buy a hot snakes album now.

[littledrummermoggs]

the crappiness is what makes it so great! oh and the retardedness of the taped face is great too!

: D

[rruckus]

amazing! long live the hot snakes

[summitkid1]

how come no one gives froberg any credit in this band, its always all about reis, i just feel like froberg made this band

[batman6458]

i don't care for reis' voice. I mean hot snakes and jehu are great but i can't get into rftc and reis' death marchers, sry. froberg all day!

[summitkid1]

haha sorry last comment was a complete drunk mumbling, rftc is pretty alright, but i mean froberg has the emotion

[osakadenture]

Froberg's new project 'Obits' is quite cool so far in what i've heard!

[thewanderer213]

Everything Reis is in is gold.

Drive Like Jehu, Hot Snakes, Rocket From The Crypt, The Sultans...

They all rock!!

All Hail Swami Records...!!

[kidviking00]

my buddy gave me audit in progress about a month ago. holy fucking shit man. i was speechless for the first half of the cd. i still am.

[Angusyoungisgod1]

THunder down under rules!!!!!!!

[Angusyoungisgod1]

Best  bamd right now

[Angusyoungisgod1]

I love the hot snakes!!!!!!!!

[Rafbeyonddriven]

On veut un concert à Paris !

[dangbruhh95]

We need a video of "who died" on youtube

[albacore66]

and "The gray area fucks with your sight"

[TheYellowDiscipline9]

Does the Sun really spin on it's axis????

WTF?

[wisterV]

Perhaps some lyrics are just that,

lyrics not science. Stuff that rhymes, or just

goes well with the melodies, fictional even.

I could be wrong, you may be right.

[VagueName]

"dont go to harvard, dont go to yale. Your disposition, will only make ya fail!"

Cool band.

[12inchremix]

sounds like drive like hot snake he he he

[dotcan]

Simply awesome, it's just wrong that bands like this broke up

[sixlanesofsteel]

shit yes hot snacks rule! where's XOX on here. my fave HS tune.. today. they so rule.

[poolisclosedaids]

they broke up ;_;

[okudzawson]

SUN Up sun up the sun is sinking! ;D

[udick666]

That song is god damn awesome. Are they all this good?

[mseales]

yes.

[pr4mojo]

Actualy yeah, they are.

[redeyestranger]

great band. great song. shitty video...where is all the good music now a days?

[GordyDaPengwin]

Same place it's always been; buried and hidden, deep under ground.

[aikho]

jefes!

[skycamefallingdown]

I love this band...The drummer Mario Rubalcaba is from Clikitat Ikatawi (legendary EMO band from San Diego)...Also Three Mile Pilot, Thingy, Black Heart Procession, Rocket From the Crypt.

I have too much spare time.

[redeyestranger]

i like ur taste.

[LINY631]

I love Hot Snakes, they're one of my favorite bands, but this video sucks.

[billybob828]

yer imagine how far this band would have gone with commerical appeal and good vids.... maybe that is why they are respected so much by so few? AMAZING LIVE BAND - best live experiance ever or Interpol.... BOTH WERE AMAZING YAY - Johnny from OZ

[peterharman]

aaaaah

[War3zAficionado]

rnr!

[aleceiffel1979]

Best band ever...almost.

[spineboy]

Best band would be the beta version of Hot Snakes, or as it was known Drive Like Jehu

[sorosan]

I have to agree. DLJ was and is simply amazing

[shervz0r]

beautiful
