This is the same Yakuza that's behind the One Nation Underawed album, right? I just came to say that it's one of the all time best albums I've ever heard.

[angiepangie40]

we like this!!!! 'specially the blue fairy lights in the box and all the cheesy grins. Da iawn!!

[dubhdavidblack]

@johlu515 yep different band, though these guys from Ireland were gigging there under the name 'Yakuza' since (I believe) 1996... but for U.S. releases they'll likely be using some variation for disambiguation and all that kinda stuff.

@raskaskoneisto it is the same band. dang, that 'One Nation Under-Awed' album just rules, doesn't it?!! There're other vids up from this new album too- search 'what were they psychos' for one...

[johlu515]

good video, but i was waiting for something of the avant-gardist jazz band yakuza... there has to be some legal issues...

[krankenvagen]

cool song

[theadorablenora]

Lovely lovely! that is a great song!

[bewdley11]

Excellent and funny. Great idea and executed with humour. Well done guys.

WOW! What an awesome song and the video is hilarious. LOVE the beard Phil and the bit where Davy asks if Ronan can see any signs. Well done guys

[theboyjordo]

the vid is pretty funny, but the song is fantastic.

[dubhdavidblack]

Ah, I won't have the grin off my face for a year. That is great work there-- and a standalone, fantastic song itself.

The lyrics make excellent brain food-- you'd BETTER be printing lyric sheets for the LP...

and it better be a gate-fold with 3D day-glo wizards and Appalachian snake-handlers...
