Dec 25, 2008 - I hate it when people mistake half-assedry/incohesion for creativity. I make better music while Im pissing in the shower.

gocleaver Says:

Dec 26, 2008 - Nope, Ive gotta stick around...who else is going to make sure these comments are kept honest...someone must lead the holy war against this blasphemous sound, and put a stop to this heresy.

Dec 27, 2008 - oh no all these people love deerhoof i better go tell them how terrible deerhoof is and how theyre all snobs for liking this music yes, that will show those snobs whats up PS: You have no idea what you're talking about.

Dec 27, 2008 - i absolutely LOVE this band and it's extremely innovative musical style. i don't think i would have liked it at all years ago, but i feel that playing guitar for twelve years in a band has changed my musical perceptions. after having figured out how to do so much on an instrument, regular old radio-friendly rock music becomes quite boring, as good as it may or may not be. so one starts to expand their horizons, searching for new sounds to enjoy and inspire.

Dec 28, 2008 - i love that your just using the same comments on all these videos go creativity, right?

Dec 29, 2008 - I think you're wasting your time talking shit on deerhoof, who are actually neat, innovative, and, if raucous at times, fucking awesome. I would rather you vent your douchebaggery on a NICKLEBACK VIDEO. This is infinitely many times better than most of the other shit circulating the world. I mean, damn. Just listen to the woodblock rhythm on this song! There actually is some musicality involved in deerhoof. The lyrics are nonsensical, but it's such a relief from the drab of other music.

Dec 31, 2008 - Maybe instead of talking trash about innovative and unique music you should learn about the proper use of a comma. Also, I think your Fergalicious comment is just off. I could listen to it 34 times and then I would just want to shoot myself. I don't think deerhoof is trying to be "catchy" either, different perhaps.

Dec 31, 2008 - If you understood anything about a time signature you'd have 20 times more respect for this band. You'd also see how incredibly wrong what you just said is. Disjointed? Hardly. Try complex. Also, try this one out. Stand in front of a mirror and point at yourself, then say, "Your an ignorant douchebag!". Then repeat.

Jan 1, 2009 - Wow. I never heard this band before, but I like them. They sorta remind me of CSS, because of the style and the asian female vocalist. P.S.:To the people who are leaving mean comments on the video because it's different than you "Lil' Wayne" mainstream stuff...why are you even watching it? Don't like it? Don't listen to it, and leave your comments to yourself.

Riceratt Says:

Jan 2, 2009 - i agree quitejaded, the every time the drummer talks at a concert i always think he's like incredibly nervous to be there or something but he's always rockin' it on the drums

Jan 3, 2009 - I have a PhD in music theory and I DO understand time signature. I also understand how it's used as a gimmick to sound "complex" when in actuality it is just used to cover for a lack of musicality and talent. Sorry, but this song is trash. Bands who rely on gimmicks like this are basically the equivalent of boy bands, but for ignorant and self important snobs.

irondaddymac Says:

Jan 3, 2009 - take your phd and shove it up your ass. it don't mean jack or shit when it comes to music.. real musicians know that.. you're the self important snob advertising your PHD. loser

boyblob Says:

Jan 4, 2009 - I just heard about this band today and after watching this video (more importantly listening to the song) I really don't know what to think of them. Definitely different so I'll listen to more of their stuff before I have a solid opinion on them.

Jan 4, 2009 - thats cute

Wavelength247 Says:

Jan 5, 2009 - I just adore this band, the more I hear the more I want to hear...

Wavelength247 Says:

Jan 5, 2009 - Nice one!

tannerivy Says:

Jan 5, 2009 - Hey people, the guy with the PhD said this song is trash. And i thought i was genuinely enjoying this song. oh well... what do i know? Hey dogg... when you were typing "but for ignorant and self important snobs," did you not once think that it was awfully ironic? By the way, when you compile a list of "doctor approved" songs, would you please let us know? Thanks a heap!

jeremyhillaryboobphd Says:

Jan 6, 2009 - hahaha dude u suck u have no right to say the song is trash. if they wanted it to sound like that then theyve acheived their goal. Theres no lack of musicality or talent at all, it takes quite a bit of musicality, talent AND skill to use an alternate time signature anyway. It's not their fault what they hear in their heads sounds too complex (or different) for you to enjoy. Why not give them some advice? after all youve got the PhD (apparently), you should know that musicianship comes ...

jeremyhillaryboobphd Says:

Jan 6, 2009 - ... before all other musical values in a person. Nobody wants to jam with a dickhead. Oh, and also while I'm here... wheres the great song you've written that sounds perfect?

GlindasBubble Says:

Jan 6, 2009 - This is shit.
