OK, Fine!! You Were Right About Amyl and the Sniffers! 

Justin you guys blew my mind on Saturday, I was front row right in front of Dan, thank you so much for such a great time. I hope not selling out the venue does not detour you from returning.

@@Cfolger I was right behind you! When Justin said "give me a D" I was the jerk who said "give me an Arkness". Great show 100%! I also got one of Dans guitar picks!

Hey Justin, are you going to make a video on how the second riff in I Believe in a Thing Called Love is exactly the same as the bass line in Loco in Acapulco by the Four Tops? Honestly would be really interested in the writing process of that

I really think Wendy o Williams of the plasmatics deserved an honorable mention here

Hey Justin! It would be really cool if you could cover something ty segall or "hi de ho" by jack white. Cheers!

you like them you will find Surfbot just as good

Almost the real deal

Yeah it's fun, energetic music that has an edge to it. Over the top without being ridiculous or a joke.

Absolutely mate. I'm an old Aussie punk and it's so good to hear music played exceptionally well. A true homage to 80's-90's Aussie Rock/Punk.

Just saw them live and it was one of the best concerts I’ve ever been to!

She gives mega-Iggy pop vibes but with a femme and aussie twist.

She was absolutely gacked the fuck out when I saw them, so that's probably part of it

@@idab6864 quite likely, still was an explosive show. Artists being gacked doesn't always translate to a better show though.

Gen Z's Chrissy Amphlett

When people say, "Punk is dead!" I say "No it's just resting....until Amyl and the Sniffers came along!"

Mate, listen to Johnny Cash. The punkest. Always alive

People that say that just stopped going to local shows and keeping up with scenes….pitiful. Punk is still goin.

"not dead, moved to australia"

No, it is. Give it up.

Yes, I think you're spot on. She channels the spirit of Chrissy A, doesn't she

Yes she just like Chrissy when they first came on the pub scene before they got famous.

Yes!!

I immediately thought the same thing

Chrissy and bon Scott hooked up one night. Amy was the result

Seconded. I love Viagra Boys

Oh yeah. Now that's a rock band.

Shrimp 🦐 sessions...yee hay!!!!

yes they are one of my favourites

Love VB!!! Especially when they team up with Amy from Amyl for 'In Spite of Ourselves' on their new album!! Great combo!

foo fighters, lel

@@msgesus4518 what?

JH introduced me to KGLW and I’m so glad!

The heaviness of the rhythm section reminds me a bit of Magic Dirt back in the day...another bit of Melbourne awesomeness. Must be something in the water down there...

nah the foos will never be big

That's a lie, there's so many great Aussie pub rock bands. Tell me The Chats wouldn't blow the roof off Blacktown RSL

@@SuperNuclearUnicorn Was just about to say something about The Chats but you beat me to it. I remember the first time I heard them. I sort of wrote them off as a joke initially, but once I actually started listening I realized that they had more of a common thread with actual punk music than anyone I've heard in a decade or better. Tongue in cheek, but at its core undeniably punk.

@@rook7823 Smoko absolutely smelt of a gimmick in isolation. Even the way it went very viral and mainstream sources were going on about it, but they backed it up. Pub Feed stands up there with the best music ever to come out of australia as far as I’m concerned

@@SuperNuclearUnicorn…that chats and…..? Genuine question.

Big up huddersfield lol

I agree. I think he was off on his assessment. It’s pretty nice but I’m not a guitar nerd. 😂

@@darkmantis69 Well, technically it's a very erratic style, of course, that's why he's quite a bit of a snob there, he has to be I guess.

The solo is very James Williamson

Yeah- I don't know HOW he doesn't like that solo. It's got power. I'm not familiar with this reactor guy yet, so I won't accuse him of snobbery -yet....

@@johnathandavis3693 it’s much better than any darkness solo

@@mj.l yes I did not realize who he was at first. But the Sniffers have WAY more songs that I like than the Darkness does. I don't know who this guy thinks he is....

Yeah honestly have no clue what this guy is talking about. Solo is amazing.

fun fact for you guys who dont play an instrument: playing behind your back "the hendrix way" (behind your head) which is the way most people do it is actually not any harder than doing it normaly its just slightly less comfortable.

@@elliefcknkole It's a good punk solo. What he's talking about is that it's not a very refined technical guitar solo

It's a highly erratic style, that's hard to digest for 'proper' guitarists. In a way (technically) it's horrible, in another it's indeed brilliant, I play for a long time and I'm not really sure what exactly he does to sound like this.

This guy Is a tool

I know HOW that feels! HAD it since childhood! I think most musos GET that from being SHIT on as kids!

I second this comment heavily. Not the first time I've seen MW mentioned in justins comments...

Is that a band or are we talking the Michael Jackson movie where he turns into a car and a robot and finishes off with a Beatles cover?

@@hotfroganimations Hahahahaha! It's a band! Much better than the film ;)

@@stevesuttner300 I almost forgot, Joe Pesci is in it 😂😂

@@hotfroganimations Sean Lennon too!!!! It's a cursed film at this point... 😂

You missed out when they first appeared, it was amazing watching a band singing about genital warts on kids TV 😂, you're sat at home thinking what the fuck, and then one of the times I saw them live he comes out playing a solo on a stuffed white tiger flying on a track in the arena cieling

I couldn’t place it but she is Keith! It’s mental

Listen again without the image of a yobbo punk rock band lol. The man has some wild skills with half bends and harmonics and it's flows so, so naturally. Some of their other songs it's clear as day.

such a unique, menacing and stylish subculture...I remember the remnants of it too...it was begging to be honoured in modern Australian music

Sounds really interesting, do you have any recommendations on how to learn more about the sharpies?

@@CodyAlushin goggle Lobby Loyde.

@@CodyAlushin there are documentary pieces here on RU-vid

Sharpies never wore Gucci though. Plasmatics?... Not sure. Waiting for Amyl to drive a truck through some TV sets.

They were fucking good weren't they

That track goes so HARD. I know what you mean, I can't get it out of my head either

wolfmother were good bitd

"Identity Theft" is my personal anthem! And I think they did the "look" better!

@@lennon1482 yeah wolfmother were kinda last generation of aussie music though, like up there with Cosmic psychos, Frenzal rhomb, Faker, blue juice & grinspoon Newer gen is like skeggs, dune rats, sticky fingers, the chats, dumb punts, drunk mums, pist idiots, the vanns, king gizzard, spacey jane, lime cordiale, tame impala, viagra boys, psychedelic porn crumpets, DZ deathrays, gangs of youth, rolling blackout coastal fever, A swayze and the ghosts, babe rainbow, violent soho, hockey, dad, ocean alley, etc...

@@GrowingDownUnder I thought Wolfmother was from New Zealand, The Datsons too.

Drunk Mums

Here you go! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-0k9xofvQh8E.html

Tropical fuck stom

Pist Idiots are another great current Aussie band. 🇦🇺

Aha…mullet-punk.

Same here

Awesome call my friend- COFFIN from my part of Sydney, theyre a perfect fit with the excellent Amyl & the Sniffers

met/ saw the guys from COFFIN twice opening for the Sniffers in SF. really nice guys, great band @@dazross8729

Research Chemicals

Kinda creepy…😔

@@4th_Lensman_of_the_apocalypse me? Creepy? Quite possibly, thanks. 🙂

The Chats are the shit! Gotta get me a pub feed…

I get those Chrissy vibes too. Loved her work. Might just listen to Divinyls all day!

@@MattyDee2112 I just put them on too haha.

That's so well said - please read Chrissy's Autobiography - I can't believe she's gone either. What a warrior and what a woman carrying a band of timid blokes including you know who. I came back to Australia in the 80's. One afternoon everyone in the share house were getting prepared for a concert at Roma St Parklands in Brisbane. During our 'preparation' a couple of the guys started getting wound up. What's wrong I asked. Were going to give that Chrissy Amphlett shit they said. I had no idea what they were talking about. End result - Chrissy Amphlett 5. Dickhead blokes 0 lol. I've been a fan ever since. Please read her book. Peace

@@grimmertwin2148if you wanted to be a woman fronting a pub rock band back then you had your work cut out for you. Even David McComb from The Triffids talked about guys waiting in the car park after gigs to beat them up. The irony is when all the pubs in Perth were taken over by foreign investors and they got rid of all their band rooms to get rid of all the riff raff, the music scene there disintegrated into pieces. It took a while for it to recover over a 10 year period. I’m so glad a band like Amyl have something that’s reminiscent that insane energy of those days. I’m lucky I got to see it. To hell with the hecklers anyway…..they show up to be involved in the show in some way. You paid for a ticket didn’t you? 😂 Thank you for sharing your story, I still haven’t read her Autobiography so thanks for the nudge!

The Phycos, original and the best 👌

yes they are one of the best live bands australia has ever had

If Sleaford Mods has you on a track., you know you’ve got some cred

Yes! New she was familiar - what was the track name?? And was there not another band called amil and the sniffers back in the bygone 1980s??

@@myboythom hertz

bingo...the solo is perfect for the song...unashamedly rugged

Absolutely.. the solo is also Stooges-like, who cares if technically is not intricate when you get that power.. I love it!

Also can’t wait to see you in EDMONTON!! 9DAYS!!!

Don't come to Canada it's a communist shithole.

And New Zealand! I wasn't going to go to the Foo's as I've already seen them. Now I might go!

Opening for the Oils too

@@bronniem5884 I’ve seen foo fighters on the broken leg tour so I’m excited to see what Dave can do when he’s not restricted to a chair!

Yes!!!!!!!! I think it would be cool also since they are a Ukraine band. But politics aside Tatiana has one hell of a growl for a female, and she can actually sing to, and the band live are amazing. Even though they've been around for awhile and near all of the band aren't the original members this line up imo has transformed this band into something amazing. I get a KITTY vibe from them if you've heard KITTY, but a much better version, even though KITTY rocked. I've also noticed JINJER are becoming more well known the last year or so, especially after their live gig in Moscow in 2021. There album Wallflowers and the track Vortex really shows her vocal capabilities. I sure hope he reads you're comment and does a reaction video of them, because they are something special, and all heavy metal fans should hear JINJER

Omg JINJER fan's!!!! Yes yes yes, they are amazing. Best metal band in 2014 i believe. Omg this has to happen, and i have the album wallflowers and every track is just amazing. She's into reggae to and some songs have that vibe. If Justin doesnt review them i will hunt him down lol jk jk, but seriously if you're into real heavy metal and haven't heard this band you are in for a treat! And she's pretty cute to lol.

@@spudwifi5042 Not sure about going that far and actually hunting Justin down lol, but i get what you mean. I've always admired Justin's vocals so just as that alone makes me think he would appreciate how she sings. Not sure if he's into that kind of metal though, but she's one of those screamers that you can actually make out what she's saying, and in interviews she says that's most important to her because she's a pretty deep writer.

@@spudwifi5042 wow more Jinjer fans lol, and i have wallflowers to, I've got a few of there albums and they all are good, Macro is my favourite And cloud factory, but they are all good. But i think they truly shine live, she has so much energy and really gets into it. And live you can really appreciate her control between clean vocals and scream, some females singers can do it, but none have compared to her range in sound imo.

The reggea track i think you're referring to is called Judgment and Punishment. And tbh i dont think Justin would get it. I watched them in Melbourne Australia and she is indeed one of the best vocalist in that genre I've heard. Justin seems to like "safe" music, hard-core Djent is not safe. He would hear her and say "but its just noise" I doubt he would appreciate it for what it is. I very much doubt in his record collection you would find any thrash or modern djent. I could be wrong and kinda hope i am. Everyone I've played Jinjer to has been blown away by not only her voice, but the backing group, especially as you mentioned there the only djent group that has incorporated ragge so well in some tracks, and some are very subtle like the track Noah. But no, our English man Justin would not understand why we love this music, it's not just noise, there's real meaning to her lyrics. But i would hope he would give them a listen, because i doubt he has heard anything like jinjer especially when she sings in her native tongue wich you rightly said is Ukrainian. It's funny because most think they are Russian lol.

Thank you .. that was my first thought as well.

@@turkeeg7644 Nice to know...that I'm not the only one!

yep - punk rock songs need punk solos, not stadium rock lycra wanks
