FOR YEARS I'VE BEEN TRYING TO FIND THIS SONG. YEARS I TELL YOU. DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY PEOPLE I'VE TRIED SINGING THIS SONG TO ONLY KNOWING THE YEAH YEAH YEAH PART? SO MANY CONFUSED LOOKS. THE SEARCH IS OVER. I AM AT PEACE.
I know this is like 9 yrs old now but I'm 47 and I remember the days of grunge, I wish these guys were around back then, they would have gotten immense airplay on mtv at the time.
I'm 20. My 65 year old dad grew up listening to the good old rock days. One day I was playing this song on guitar with the song. He heard me play and asked who it was, so I introduced him to violent soho. He told me a soho was a name for an old school British mob and that the song kicked ass. Good times.
This. Is. The. Perfect. Song. When you’re feeling strung out, and alone, there is this anthem. When you’re feeling you aren’t that good enough, you listen to this and feel like you are a part of something. I’m drunk and rambling….good fkn song, great fkn band.😢
Will I drive out In the night Never come back In a mighty fright Stay out longer while I can Picking fossils in the sand I admire all the games Another asshole lights the flame Rusted clotheslines in the sun Noise control, I'm sunken I will smile The greatest written smile No one to complain Written in chrome and gore It's all the same YEAH YEAH YEAH x5 All I ever wanted was a piece to myself All I ever wanted was a nine to five People hide what they feel inside So they'll cover it up till it's grey and dry A pussy is a piece of skin wrapped in a pocket All the king's men fell down on their knees Raise their arms to the leader outside Praising the devil they said Hell fuck yeah YEAH YEAH YEAH x5 I can't fight it I can't hide Will you take me over Little devils run around outside Will you take me under I can't breath if I cannot see I can't see if I can't breathe All I ever wanted was an afternoon A middle class and an open sky They rushed in the square with a paper alight Pushed down the statue and spat on it's side A feeling is a piece of skin wrapped in a pocket All the king's men fell down on their knees Raise their arms to a leader outside Praising the devil they said Hell fuck yeah YEAH YEAH YEAH x5 I can't fight it I can't hide Will you take me over Little devil run around outside Will you take me under I can't breath if I cannot see I can't see if I can't breathe Yeah, yeah, yeah,fuck yeah Take me down x3
Hardly underrated. They are Australia's number one selling rock band at the moment. They've had three top 5 albums over the past 8 years, two of which have topped the charts. Though it'd be good to see them break into the overseas markets big time too.
2014 was the beginning of my life, really. My escape from an abusive mother. This song encapsulated by rage in such an enjoyable way. It takes me back when I was just discovering the real beauty of living. 10 years later I think I appreciate it even more.
I was on Spotify this morning and wanted to looked up Violent Sons but clicked enter too soon and ended up on Violent Sohos page. Listened to one song and I swear I listened to the album Hungry Ghosts all day. Loved it. I love the Nirvana/Smashing Pumpkins sound going on but still an original sound. One of the best albums I've heard of 2014.

The video is slowed down and sped up several times during the music video, alternating between normal and 2 x speed, while the audio channel stays at normal speed, so that in order to film the video in a single take the band would have had to listen to the song change speed several times between normal and 2x speed (which we can duplicate by changing the playback speed on RU-vid). It also has this quality of being a time loop, returning back to where it started and solving the mystery it posed at the very beginning.
I listened to this song yesterday when i was skating at the park while i was on the swing with my headphones on. Sucha vibe. It was the first time i went skating since i came back to California from being out in Cincinnati Ohio for two year and most of that was homeless so it had a vibe being back here listening to this.
***** yeah, very obvious Pixies and Nirvana style of fast, hard, yelling sequences broken apart by slow more melodic lyrical sections. Not an original style at all, but they still play it off extremely well.
Cur734 Dude, I'm not saying they're bad, I think this song and the band in general are awesome as well, but the their style is a copy of pixies and nirvana nonetheless. Lots of bands do this, I'm not trying to insult them. I love this style of music, so really, it wasn't a complaint.
GOd I wish I could just buy your albums in the states. No record stores in Louisville KY has your stuff even the underground stores. Theres only two or three and none of them have it :( I want them so bad. I love grunge and this is the closest thing since. The chorus' are amazing like 90's level awesome every time. Everytime I hear a new video searching through yutube for this band im blown away every time. From this to neighbor to everything so sick.
First song in a while that's made me jump up and start thrashing around my living room. These guys kick major ass! Watched this 3 times today... it's 11:13 am.
I'm sad that all the comments are from like 6 years ago I just heard this on a stream yesterday and it's actually my str8 up new favorite song this and viceroy are my two favs but every song by these guys jams
Single shot technique executed really well, cool concept. Like it even more that I believe you can see one of the band members run out the back door just before they assemble in the back yard. Great song too of course.
I spent an hour searching for songs that have "yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah" lyrics because I had this stuck in my head. Must have went through about 10 other songs that were not the right one until I found this.
Rock only exists in Australia now. Love this band I bought COVID tickets when they were supposed to play in LA in 2020 . Was heartbroken when it got cancelled. Come back boys the US needs you
And another thing I've been wondering lately...... Is how is it that Australia continues to produce such talent. Man these guys wail. More importantly they don't mid being themselves. Go Soho!!!
