i can't believe i've been listening to this album for almost 10 years now. it is really cool to see all the comments by new fans. not to be vulgar but this song reminds me of my ex and i running to the barthroom to fuck when we worked together. we worked at this bar in midtown NYC and when one of us played this on the juke box the other knew the drill. i don't even remember how or why we decided on this song, but always bring back memories of good times, good drugs, and a sexy woman.
To all the royksopp fans complaining that this video rips off "remind me", do be quiet. They are very similar visually yes, but The Agenda Suicide video predates the remind single by several months (Feb 2002 and May 2002 respectively)
It's pretty co-incidental, and the release dates are so close that it's unlikely Royksopp ripped off The Faint.
But don't assume the more popular artist "got there first" :P
I don't want to be just another cog in the mechanism. It seems that anything you try to create musically will just be co-opted and misappropriated by the mainstream so the meaning and purpose can be diluted by one hundred thousand clone bands that are payed to emulate the style but don't care about promoting an idea and if the idea stuck they just dilute that too. I'm not saying their is nothing original anymore I'm saying what the point of being original if your just fighting an uphill battle?
It's funny now how well the industry can manipulate people so well as to brainwash an entire generation to think that "No labels" means that it's a mortal sin to try and define anything... god help you...! In reality it means don't pigeonhole a group of people or bands into a category without first understanding the complexity of their social dynamic and how it relates to themselves individually.
And yet isn' t it so totally IRONIC how the biggest recording industry corps do the most labeling, stereotyping, pigeonholing of music to marginalize the ideas it represents? The public is not so completly stupid that they can't see the obviousness of this. That's probably why it the new style now to be as ironic as possible...
I loved this song to death but I could not fucking find it anywhere until one day I saw it on tv and I made sure to write the name of the song and the band now I can finally die happy
amazing animation guys. the design is astounding and well defined. It has a definite feeling of a cross between infographics and pulp noir. keep it up guys this is a conceptual wonder. Masterfully done.
i had a chance to see them in LA in 2001...it was saddlecreek night i guess. cursive, azure ray, now its overhead, and the faint...and bright eyes was doing his fevers and mirrors tour and was playi8ng a show across town the same night, i was in like 11th grade and i couldnt go.
I'm surprised at the people who have never heard of the faint. It's a shame. I've managed to get all of my friends to like...love them. ONe of the best bands ever. Up there with nirvana,stp,alice in chains.
I saw a clip of this on a interview by The Used on a german music channel. I saw just the first 30 seconds and I knew it was worth looking for. IT WAS TOTALLY WORTH IT! AWSOME!!
Boring life + too much work = Going nuts. All the people suiciding at the same time and the messed up ending is the person's own point of view of thing. The point of view of someone that is going crazy. An impulsion causing him to commit the act. That is what I think of the clip :).
