I am completely late to this party. I've just discovered Silversun Pickups and so far I haven't heard anything I've disliked. I'm going to pick up some of their records after work this weekend.
Same, Lee. I mean I've heard Panic switch on the radio for ages, and never knew it was them. Now, suffice to say, I'm a bit more attentive to their songs.
Welcome to the club...make sure to also check out Metric, Interpol and Mariachi de Bronx if you missed them while you were in the good music coma ....good stuff which needs to be heard....I would also need to add She wants revenge...thanks for sending any good tips my way!
seen them 3 times. Even traveled to a different state to see them. The most underrated band of all time. This is what brilliance and genius sounds like.
Jody Wetmore this, in addition to 1200 mg lithium daily and bi- monthly 1 hr. Therapy sessions since 2014, helps. The happiest year of my life was 2020, I spent it camping with my cane corso. ✌️ ☮️💊💊🧠💕
I saw Nikki, Brian, and Christopher back in the 2000's. I was walking home from school (near Silverlake) and they were across the street chilling in front of a house. I was too shy to walk up to them but Nikki noticed me staring and she smiled back at me. I had never blushed so much in my life.
personally i much prefer that the harsher vocal is used in shorter bursts. Lazy Eye is one of my favorite songs ever and its partly due to how explosive it feels when he lets rip with the harsher sound.

Why does this only have 1.1 million views in 2019 when so much nonsense has over 40 million views? Will someone put this gee dee song in a gee dee Netflix show or something? What the actual...
@@JohnRiversOfficial it's his opinion and if wants to call it a masterpiece, like I do, then...so be it. Remember opinions are like assholes...everyone has one...just like you. ♡
my Journey to SSPU all started with a spontaneous change to my Pandora under "Gorillaz" playlist and the song Panic Switch came on... best thing I've ever did
If you came to this video after seeing the new video for Alone on a Hill because you thought Nickki was wearing the same shirt in both: A) you're right. And B)you're not alone.
Seriously, do these guys do anything that isn't perfect? I've been lucky to see them a few times live, one of the few bands that sound even better performing than recorded. True musicians!
It's possible, just depends on how bad you want it, and how addicted you are too stupid luxuries.Just as in social politics now, everyone claims they want change, but no one is willing to do without for even a minute. You CAN dump all the BS and live simply.You're 100 percent correct ,- it's a trap you get in deeper,- cars, houses, marriages, kids,- all just means of generating taxes .Think about it.
no matter how good the music is; these guys are clearly a health and safety hazard. It's sending the wrong message to our children, and they must be stopped

Ahh, come on guys, , ,no one's old here. . . .no one's late. . . hell, I'm 58 now. I found Silversun just after Swoon was released. I had never heard of them at all. I was at a Car Stereo place getting a CB radio installed in my truck. And in the stereo department, the manager was playing Silversun Pickups. . . . you know, in that stereo area where you can raise and lower the volume and play with the stereo settings. . . .And they sounded so fabulous. . . .I just had to know who they were ! So I asked the manager. . .and he told me all about Silversun Pickups !! And there I was !!!
There's something extra special about Pikul,. I love their other albums, specially Carnavas and Swoon, but this EP is so unique. It has this personal, moody tone they haven't revisited since. The music is raw and the guitar tones throughout are incredible.
Nikki uses the “pinky rest” technique to mute the other strings by resting her pinky over them while she picks the strings, a technique I thought I seen her use in the “Well Thought Out Twinkles” music video which was really hard to catch considering it’s all coated with special effects so I came to this video to confirm it and I was right! A good technique to use when you’re starting off, I’ve evolved to a flat fist but this one is just as effective! (I don’t know who needed to hear that.) Great music video, loved the concept!
Love love love! The cello in this is so beautiful. Pikul is definitely a favorite album by them♥️ " No wonder how we did it this way. Kept looking forward on paths sideways, it's everything that is connected and beautiful and now I know just where I stand." ♥️♥️ Goosebumps each time.
The cellist is the wife of Jack Black and daughter to late great jazz bassist Charlie Haden. I hate to describe her merely in terms of other people but that's how trivia be.
easier times - no widescreen. I don’t have to turn my phone :-) I remember falling asleep to this song drunk af. the guitar so soothing the beat so mesmerizing. couldn’t help but to close my eyes. holy cow!
Oh fuck I remember going home from my boyfriend, listening to this song on repeat and thinking about leaving him. I love this song but it will always remind me of this frustrating relationship.
Well someone said I made a mistake Kept looking forwards on paths sideways It's everything that is connected and beautiful And now I know just where I stand Well, seasons always shift too late Spent too much time now on paths sideways It's everything that is connected and beautiful And now I know just where I stand Thank god it's over when we are finally safe from COVID this is the song i will play
Cool Like the Ocean. It's the room, the sun and the sky .Feeling the sparks of the friendly fire, Misery inspires. 16 Years Later... Im Finally There, Too. ;)
i used to never miss a tour. got shouted out by brian twice nikki once. BUT please get the corpos out of the band. The last 2 records are sinful. get steve albini to save them or go back to solo get rid of the vigs of the world ruining talent like this please we want our band back
This band is ahead of they're time , people just dont realize how good they are . This track is as awesome, non pretentious and beautifully beat driven, and as American as apple pie. And that's saying alot considering the amount of great British bands. SSP is in my collection next to arcade fire , another great band that knows what sounds good.
I'm debating if this is a break-up song, a song about domestic violence, a kid fighting with his parents and friends, or a social commentary on paternalism... Anyone know? Maybe it's all those...
I think it's about growing up, and how you will have the same impression on the people you are close to, despite the changes that come with maturing. As this progresses, you try to break away from your family and friends, and they will continue to keep you the way you were. Eventually, it comes down to what you will choose for yourself, and whether you choose to conform to the expectations of others, or change. "Well someone said I made a mistake Kept looking forward on paths sideways It's everything that is connected and beautiful And now I know just where I stand"
To me it's about a civilization and the self in a world ruled by a select few royal families. Which goes back to rome days, where they worshipped saturn. For there's nothing new under the sun, things just change form. Now you call it the United nations. But ultimately a song about love for mankind despite these ugly truths. But that's just my interpretation.
I think it's about a man's constant trials through life after making a mistake and being imprisoned, and finally being released to find nobody waiting for him...
I drop in every 5 years or so to explain this video. This video tells the story of Nikki- who is accident prone- and her bandmates who are constantly getting her out of a jam- and have the scars and black eyes to prove it.
I wish I could just listen to music and not be responsible for what people expect out of me. With the ability to accomplish something comes the opportunity to disappoint people.

They take me back to highschool. Trying to convince my sister to see them live this year lol
Same, Lee. I mean I've heard Panic switch on the radio for ages, and never knew it was them. Now, suffice to say, I'm a bit more attentive to their songs.
Welcome, buddy!!! I'm excited for you. Hearing them for the first time is amazing cause it blows your mind how good they are.
Same here and I'm sad I didn't here them sooner lol

Just saw them live tonight. This song was my personal highlight
🤠 Same to ya'! **tips hat**
Aww,thank you 🤟🎼🎼
gracias compadre!
seen them 3 times. Even traveled to a different state to see them. The most underrated band of all time. This is what brilliance and genius sounds like.
Agreed
Nice, I will see them on San diego this september, very excited for!!
🤣🤣Dude they really carry it away, I know exactly what you saying.
To play the guitar and sing like that at the same time qualifies as genius for me.
My favorite concert I've ever been to. I was bawling! 😭😆
I always come back to this. Hits me right in the sweet spot. That crazy guitar solo into the cello solo is friggin' unreal.
100%!!!
Me too! For years!
2019, my favorite
Still slaps
One may call it, orgasmic …
Their music saves me when my soul is empty and my heart is alone, like ice cold wind in my face, I am revived ☮️
That's how I feel about Panic Switch my dude 👌🏻
@SlowRiotNewKanada you actually could have done that you know? Let people be dude.
Dude I feel the same way ever since I first saw this video when I was a kid
Me 2 but I find councling helps as well

+Tim Regehr older or experienced???

I'm still crushing
This song is criminally underrated.
It's their best song. Period.
I saw Nikki, Brian, and Christopher back in the 2000's. I was walking home from school (near Silverlake) and they were across the street chilling in front of a house. I was too shy to walk up to them but Nikki noticed me staring and she smiled back at me. I had never blushed so much in my life.
Awesome

Late to the party. I’m 46 and just now discovering these guys. Their music reminds me of some of the best of the 90s bands I loved. Amazing music.
That's cool though, I'm 33 now but I remember seeing them for the first time in 2006 when their Lazy Eye video was popular
40 here. Learned about them on Rock Band II with Lazy Eye. Great band. Underrated.
Yeah, Liz Phair meets the Dream Syndicate
I don't feel so bad now. I'm forty six also and just now hearing them actually back in July was the first time🎶
Its 00s
All the thumbs down came from OSHA inspectors.
🤣😂👍
🤣
Fuck the whitetops--> from VT
Clever!
There is something about this song... it's raw... it's punk... it's... something i wanna put on in the shower to start my
day
When he gets to the harsher vocals they almost have a Frank Black quality to them. I wish he did that more.
Oh my God somebody that gets me musically.
Never ever thought I would see the day that another Frank black fan comes out of the shadows.
personally i much prefer that the harsher vocal is used in shorter bursts. Lazy Eye is one of my favorite songs ever and its partly due to how explosive it feels when he lets rip with the harsher sound.
Also has a The Lonesome Crowded West era Modest Mouse vibe
Celtic_Spike exactly. It’s special when he uses the harsher vocals because it’s not their default sound
SSPU the most underrated band in music history
Second most
Drscottyjones and the first?
I'm not Drscottyjones, but to me, it's 1 - Sucioperro, 2 - SSPU, 3 - the Joy Formidable.
they are consider one of the bands that have left a mark in the alternative musis of the last decade
They're not underrated when they're combined song views are around 50 million.
Man I only just found this song but I get this crazy nostalgia just listening to it..the sound of a better time
What an underrated song. People don't know what they been missing out on
You're right! This is my 1st time hearing this, just never happened upon it before, loving it!
Ktichen's on fire, might as well play my cello.
Do you expect anything else from Jack Black's wife?
Fiddle while Rome burns.
I miss the organic feeling of this period of the band's music
Right?
great times I love this band so much
I miss it deeply
Same, but I still like their new stuff. It seems everything fades with time...
God I love this band.

Favorite song of my favorite band when I was 13. I'm 20 now and I just saw them a few hours ago live. Amazing.
my Journey to SSPU all started with a spontaneous change to my Pandora under "Gorillaz" playlist and the song Panic Switch came on... best thing I've ever did
I wanna be mad at pandora but they have helped me find new favorite artist every so often. Lol.
Monterio Bruce deadass found them off guitar hero
something similar happened to me
Bro same lol
Minus the gorillaz but they are good too

Praying for you and your loved ones.

I love this song so much and i just scream the "THANK GOD IT'S OVER" part at the end cuz it resonates with me so much. What a beautiful song.
I scream his scream parts :))!!!
Seriously, do these guys do anything that isn't perfect? I've been lucky to see them a few times live, one of the few bands that sound even better performing than recorded. True musicians!
Takes me back to when I was free, before I had responsibility. Would give anything to feel like that again.

Also, she flies?

Nikky, easily my favorite bassist for the last 10 years
In 2009 I, a high school freshman boy, rocked low cut brown converse because of this video and Nikki Monninger. Most underrated bassist.
no matter how good the music is; these guys are clearly a health and safety hazard. It's sending the wrong message to our children, and they must be stopped
Lost my family. Made mistakes. This fucking song man... God damn it

There's something extra special about Pikul,. I love their other albums, specially Carnavas and Swoon, but this EP is so unique. It has this personal, moody tone they haven't revisited since. The music is raw and the guitar tones throughout are incredible.
My favorite by far. Holds a big part of my teenage angst in it.
If you want a similar vibe, check out the album "A triumph for man" by Mew. Its essentially Pikul: expanded, one of my favourite albums
Implore you to check out the Sunset Junction '03 CDr and their 2004 Demo CDr if you haven't already. Easily some of their most powerful recordings!
12 years later and this song still gives me goosebumps.
Nikki uses the “pinky rest” technique to mute the other strings by resting her pinky over them while she picks the strings, a technique I thought I seen her use in the “Well Thought Out Twinkles” music video which was really hard to catch considering it’s all coated with special effects so I came to this video to confirm it and I was right!

The cellist is the wife of Jack Black and daughter to late great jazz bassist Charlie Haden. I hate to describe her merely in terms of other people but that's how trivia be.

Always a band to continuosly revisit. Even Lazy eye for a billion times
Still listening in 2023 ! Jack in one hand ciggy in other. Fuck I love you all!!!

to of my favorite bands, Yet SSPU does it their own way.
Really great music
You nailed it. Right on.
And the Breeders
They ARE the Pixies ,- light.
cross between
luscious jackson
and smashing pumkins !!
Silversun is one of those bands where every song is 100% theirs, and they're all at least pretty good. 3 Seed is still the best song ever though.
I dunno how I end up to listening their songs, but these guys and their songs are awesome. :)
This band is ahead of they're time , people just dont realize how good they are . This track is as awesome, non pretentious and beautifully beat driven, and as American as apple pie. And that's saying alot considering the amount of great British bands. SSP is in my collection next to arcade fire , another great band that knows what sounds good.
Gotta admit...Nikki is stunning in this vid.
there is something about women who can sing and play guitar
*bass
+Jonagor97 2 Bass is a guitar
It's in the guitar class of instruments but it isn't a guitar.
Jonagor97 2 Yes it is
I'm debating if this is a break-up song, a song about domestic violence, a kid fighting with his parents and friends, or a social commentary on paternalism... Anyone know? Maybe it's all those...
I think it's a I'm trying to make up song
I think it's about growing up, and how you will have the same impression on the people you are close to, despite the changes that come with maturing. As this progresses, you try to break away from your family and friends, and they will continue to keep you the way you were. Eventually, it comes down to what you will choose for yourself, and whether you choose to conform to the expectations of others, or change.
"Well someone said I made a mistake
Kept looking forward on paths sideways
It's everything that is connected and beautiful
And now I know just where I stand"
To me it's about a civilization and the self in a world ruled by a select few royal families. Which goes back to rome days, where they worshipped saturn. For there's nothing new under the sun, things just change form. Now you call it the United nations. But ultimately a song about love for mankind despite these ugly truths. But that's just my interpretation.
I think it's about a man's constant trials through life after making a mistake and being imprisoned, and finally being released to find nobody waiting for him...
HoldupnWatch I think it's about how we go through shit together as a family and we learn. It's about humans
Luv the synergy of rawness and class for this jam showing SSP have a genre all their own!
I think we deserve an HD version of this music video by now, don't we? we have behaved so well latelly... that should count for smthg, shouldn' it?
Does anyone know the story behind that black eye?
I drop in every 5 years or so to explain this video. This video tells the story of Nikki- who is accident prone- and her bandmates who are constantly getting her out of a jam- and have the scars and black eyes to prove it.
@@jeffraber9110 omg that makes so much sense now lol
I fell in love with her after this video. 🥰 clumsy beautiful thing! Lol God this was sooo long ago and I'm so old!
2.4 million view? Can't believe I've listened to this 1.2 million times
Can't believe someone else has listened to this almost as much as I have
Love when the drummer casually catches the clock and pushes it back. Incredible song and great video, I listen to this several times a day right now.
I’m here in 2024 baby ❤
Got here because I'm a smashing pumpkins fan. Now I think SSPU>Smashing Pumpkins
Smashing pumpkins are how i grew up, but man these guys are good.
Listened to them when I was in high school, that's 14 years ago.
SSPU, you're still the one I listen to whenever I want to feel young.
Such a beautiful song. Makes me long for a different time.
If you’re listening to this in 2025 you’re a time traveler.
Everything is connected and beautiful!!!!!!
If you’re listening to the silversun pickups classic in 2023 you’re a legend.
It’s like Proto-Lazy Eye
Really 🥹Id be embarrassed to be performing soon with Jerry Cantrell & Bush
I wish I could just listen to music and not be responsible for what people expect out of me. With the ability to accomplish something comes the opportunity to disappoint people.
I bet'cha she really does this to some extent tangling up the others in cords.. So they made a joke video out of it just for her...
Stop the season stop the sting
A plastic mic a broken string
Infected wound from a rusty ring so what
Soon you'll be there too
Soon you'll be there too
Kissing families can't recall
A program to derail us all
Forgotten prison it's been safe 'til now
It's no wonder that we did it this way
Kept looking forward on paths sideways
It's everything that is connected and beautiful
And now I know just where I stand
Move on
Roll along
Not today
It's everything that is connected and beautiful
And now I know just where I stand
Thank God your heart is too close
This can be the bitter end
I know it won't
Well someone said I made a mistake
Kept looking forward on paths sideways
It's everything that is connected and beautiful
And now I know just where I stand
Well seasons always shift too late
Spent too much time now on paths sideways
Everything that is connected and beautiful
And now I know just where I stand
Thank God it's over
Wonder why Brian had a black eye
drummer has his wrist bandaged... little details
He was in a fight for his life and sanity, much like I was when I discovered this song. And much like I am now.
Will Grover hope things have gotten better
the song to me is about domestic abuse. i think its in the video to reflect the message.
He fell down the stairs!!!
Stop the season stop the sting
A plastic mic a broken string
Infected wound from a rusty ring
So what?
Soon you'll be there too (x2)
Kissing families can recall
A program to derail us all
Forgotten prison it's been safe 'til now
It's no wonder that we did it this way
Keep looking forward on paths sideways
It's everything that is connected and beautiful.
Now I know where I stand.
Move on
Roll along
Not today
It's everything that's connected and beautiful
Now, I know where I stand.
Thank god you're heart is to close.
This can't be the bitter end.
I know it won't.
Well someone said I made a mistake
Kept looking forward on paths sideways
It's everything that is connected and beautiful
And now I know just where I stand
Seasons always shift too late
Spent too much time now I'm bent sideways
Everything that is connected and beautiful
And now I know just where I stand
Thank god it's over
This song I can't stop putting on replay
