Killer Dwarfs - Stand Tall - Director's Cut (1987) 

I don't understand we these guys didn't make it big, they are better than 90% or their peers

Such a great memory seeing and hearing this so long ago. Great band. Great song. Great days. Bring them back please. Rock on guys!

The Gate brought me here. 🤘

KILLER dwarfs...............1 of my favorite bands of all time......they NEVER got what they dezerved.......SSSOOOOOOOO UNDER RATED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Saw them in 92-93. At Toto's in Schaumburg. Great live band & Russ crowdsurfed & it was awesome

This was a great, superbly creative video from an underrated band. I bought this album the day after I saw this video. Very, very good album and probably my fave from the Dwarfs.

I,ve raised two cats with The Dwarfs here in Finland. Jopi died 2006 but Repe is still sleeping beside me.Literally. Real domestic cats that is. You never get women by playing Russ's singing or Gerry's riffs.

bombastic song , it should have been a megahit worldwide !!!

I saw them at the Gasworks on Younge st in 88 or 89. Russ Graham Jumped off a stack of speakers and landed on his head ! Then he jumped up and carried on like it never happened ! The club came unglued that night.... Awsome show.

They never really made it to the super big time, but they were very unique and I liked that. First time I ever heard of them was in that movie The Gate. After much searching, I managed to get one of their tapes and was impressed.

That's awesome! I have never seen that. We used to rock the Dwarfs on KISS with Joe Anthony, and play them on the way home from the drag races. Thanks.

SUCH AN AWESOME TOON

80 s rock was the best..killer riffs and fun songs

This video represents the best era of music....why did grunge have to end hair metal? Why couldn't it have ended rap? Think of all the needless suffering that could have ended right there. Hail the Dwarfs....hail Stand Tall!!!

love the no frills plastic wrap! ah memories.

This video is so awesome. This is so me.

I hate 2024. I want to time-travel back to the summer of 1987 and just stay there

I remember winning free tickets to see them at a nightclub in the nineties, from a radio station Q104

It is the year 2013, and I am re-viewing this video and STILL give it kudos. The creativity and defiance of the norm is outstanding. I will not be surprised when the band re-unites and takes over the world.

Is it just me, or does anyone else think Bobcat Goldthwait + Geddy Lee = Killer Dwarfs? Absolutely awesome! One of the very, very best...

Loved this video back in the day man, .. so very under rated indeed.

Oh my. I haven't Joe Anthony's name mentioned in forever. I used to listen to 'The Godfather' on KISS back in the day as a teenager in Bastrop (skip signal from SA was pretty damned good back then, LOL). Thanks for the little trip down memory lane!

Amazing ..just great ..!!!!

Im here from after watching a Steve Harris interview from 1988 where he said he was really impressed with Killer Dwarfs when asked about any new bands he liked! :-D ha,.... Great tune,.. I'd never heard of them. Whatever happened to them?

awesome band..

Because their Canadian that's why,i'm Canadian & we have so many great metal bands that should have made it bigger,look at Anvil it took them making a movie to get any respect.I grew up listening to great Canadian metal bands like Anvil,Annihilator,Monster Voodoo Machine,Killer Dwarfs,Exciter,Quo Vadis,Razor,Sacrifice,Dayglo Abortions,Neauraxis,Cryptopsy,Slaughter.& your newer metal bands like 3 Inches Of Blood,Baptized In Blood,Augury,Thine Eyes Bleed,Cancer Bats,Unleash The Archers,Fatality.

cheers from sudbury ontario.

HA,ha.............,.. I like it!!!🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸

classic 80's hair metal...love the concept of this video

grew up with this good times

Another great Canadian band. Rush and Triumph, of course.

Miss those lil guys...

Here because of The Gate!

The Killer Dwarfs are a fanfastic group.

I heard these guys on ZRock... then I bought the vinyl. Great band.

and that, kids, is how vinyls are made.

Grunge didn't end anything big wigs in the music industry did and still are! It's to bad I was only 2 when this song came out lol! Great tune!

My band used to cover this song!!!! I love it!!!!

These guys are fucking geniuses...

Me thinks that is how they make new vinyl now days.

@Anchorman0427 grunge came & went ! rock & metal is here forever, horns up dude \m/

Cool! xoxo The Clarences

1st time I heard the Dwarfs was at Sam the Record Man in Toronto. They didn't have a poster up no video playing ya it was the 80s. heard the song and bought the album right then & there.

Yes your right,i forgot quite a few actually lol.

Metal Works - Mississauga.

sorry about that i meant to clikk the good one i accidentally hit the bad one, i love these guys.

brilliant !

I bought this CD stand tall at a place called CD trader its autographed by the entire band.THIS STORE KICKS SERIOUS ASS!

gotta love canadian bands huh

My cousin goldi told me stand tall stick your guns derrick you like rock n roll music

The GODFATHER lives!!!!

I still have my copy from back in the day the whole album was good.

This video is amusing

Russ Graham is an amazing frontman for a balls-out rocking band. First time I ever saw them was the Keepin' the Spirit Alive music video. Saw them in Columbus, think it was 1990. Don't know why concert halls put seats in if they're going to have bands like this play.

All the few vids are so great but really, the Method album is one of the best Hard rock albums I've ever heard. And I have been around for decades...

awesome band! Saw this on MM when it first debuted so so many years ago. Still love it!

Love our Homies, Paris Ontario Canada LOVES YOU ❤

2020 here

Awesome! Haven't seen this since J.D. Roberts was host of the Power Hour.

Awesome! One of my all-time favorite videos. Delighted to see it again after all these years.

Dave's World of Fun Stuff is the guitarist. Remind him on every video

@stormriderWI they did make it pretty big...first 2 albums went gold and they had a #1 video on MTV

I often see one of these dudes at my local Freshco shopping 😂

Man i know the 80's were/ are now still, just a blur. But: how the hell did I miss these guys!?!?!?!?!?

Loll still jamming this in 2023 😂

hilarious, thanx for uploading

D.I.Y at its best. Learn a lession. COVID BROUGHT ME HERE TO ONE OF THE BEST VIDEOS OF ALL TIME.

rules

Love this band!!

AWESOME 🤘🤘🤘

Bastrop eh? I worked for EMS there from 89-93. Wife is from Shitville, er Smithville. : ) The you definitely want to check this link out. It has dozens of audio players full of recordings directly from KISS radio back in the day. Lots of concert and Joe memorabilia too. Enjoy. Link won't work, go to Myspace and add /joeanthonyrocks

i'm hearing young geddy lee in his voice.

Awesome band....!!!!;)xx

One of these guys lives in my hood. I see him at the grocery store sometimes

I saw these guys live last night and they fuckin killed it! Great band, what a blast

I Blasted the K D"S all through high school and still dotheir debut album and and Big Deal holds a special place in my collection, and I love Stand Tall and Dirty Weapons too, Method I'll say was their swansong but The boys need "Giv'er"" and jump on the comback wagon TOO!! oh and to Anchorman and his ilk who show they were'nt there,... any self respecting metal head would never refer to this GENEXERS music as "hair" metal it's_ JUST _ fucking _ METAL_ !!!

Dave sent me

Superb band and video!

is this Dana Carvey's band?

love to hear that band repeat they are champ awesome !!! I never stop to listen that forever

LYRICS The fear is paralysing, Second gear for flight. The atmosphere is tantalizing. Savour every bite. Stand tall, stick to your guns. Might have you scared but they can't make you run. Stand tall, stick to your guns. Show them what you're made of. Take my hand, we will command. Fear nothing, no one. Speak to me, I'm hearing you, A message from the front lines. Out of the past, our hope will last. No second best for this one. Take my hand, we will command. Fear nothing, no one.

Steve Harris and Dave Murray sent me here....

I have a flyer from around 1988 that says KILLER DWARFS are playing with ALIAS at the Waters Club in San Pedro on June 27th.....Is this the same KILLER DWARFS?

I was fortunate enough to grow up in the 80s. Different world. Talk Shit, you are getting punched in the face. Sure made a difference in how one acted. Sidebar I grew up a swim from Amherstburg, Canada. We had a rock painted with a red x in high school. That was where you put in and got to sugar island parties on a float.

great stuff. thanks for keeping the Killer Dwarfs videos coming Jimby:-)

This is Rush in hard rock version.

i want to get their album i am from that era help me get it

Im a virgin :D First time listening to this song. Love it!! \m/ Liked the video too! :D

🎧😎KiLLeR DWaRfS😎🎧

i saw KD at san antonio sunken gardens june 1986, anybody else there?

Russel!

I remember watching this for the first time....it was awesome then and it's awesome now!!

@stormriderWI I think it was the oversaturation at the time. Too many of the same-sounding bands were coming out. When Grunge came to ovecome 80s metal, I was severly pissed. but now, i understand why why Grunge became popular..it was different..until then all the Grunge bands started to sound the same. I agree with you, these guys are great.

@SuperUdo9990 Yea, and everyone is a freakin critic. Opinions are like assholes. Everyone has one. Killer Dwarfs were a great band. There was nothing weak about them. All except your opinion.

@KeenAnthony sounds like a plan-but those movies make me sleep with a night light. at my age, its embarrassing. Thanks tho. appreciate the offer. j

This video smells like smoky arcades and molson Canadian

director's cut ?

0:26, definitely NOT mosh...

Stand your own ground show them what made of

A totally imaginative video from a great album that was probably hurt by Affirmative Action Canadian Content requirements that forced Canadian Bands to become sellout Bands and write sweet palpable ballads and other crap songs in order to be played on the air- Not giving any great/positive Reviews on Amazon who require those to pay to review their products by buy so much $$ per month and why should I encourage more sales to them based on such a policy. Get the Album, CD from a local record store, unless they throw a tantrum if you give them a bad review because of lousy service
