I'm 200,000 years old, and this is the best music I've ever heard.
Yes yes yes…..
Sho' you right.
He's right, I'm time and I was there
I'm 200,000 inches long, and this is the best music I've ever heard.
There's something really hypnotic about this strange combination between lots of effort and zero fucks given.
i'll second and thirth this.
You nailed it
Haha yeah I couldn't agree more
Absolutely! And usually that is not my kind of music when someone cares zerofucks, but somehow I am totally drawn to these guys
Punk?

That feeling of finding a New Favourite Band is hard to beat.
My brothers were playing them then like a week later worms came into my head and I’m im acc obsessed, they playing in my home town Nottingham, Uk In 2023, I will deffo be there
@@PinkSmile123 I'll jump onto tickets if they ever tour Australia again for sure.
Im 63 and blase, noe
Im 63 and love the thrill discovering this band is something i i have not had for decades .And im going their gig In Helsinki next march .
@@sargasso4673 Enjoy!
It looks pretty cold in there, good thing he's wearing sunglasses
Not cold, just cool af
@@benoitbvg2888 , all that research contraband can get to ones eyeballs. Must wear protection!! And, why not have shades on lol.
Its to hide the fact their irises are the size of needlepoints
@@bb.6969 HAAAAAA, Indeeeeeed lol
for better speed vision
It's important to be serious about not taking yourself seriously.
The best comment I've seen in a long time👏
That's a life motto
they, and most other people who try at it, fail, because they take not taking themselves seriously, too serious, which is the same as taking themselves too seriously. I don't expect people who think idiocy is awesome to understand that not knowing where the joke starts and stops makes you a fucking moron.
@@justinheads5751 who hurt you?
Fuckin a man
Benjamin Valle passed away today age 47, This is the clip I immediately went to. From 3 years ago, pre virus. I have done some cool things in my life, but playing in a band this good in a fish market? Nothing even comes close. Sincere thoughts to family, friends, bandmates and other music lovers.
RIP Benjamin Valle. He was a bad ass guitarist.
🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍
This is so heart breaking rip beautiful man we love you xxx
How'd he die?
@@pepperachu he fell down some stairs RIP
RIP BEN
"We had a little dog, such a little dog, but it reminded me of a large dog, just in miniture size" love this line!
It's a good line, such a good line, but it reminded me of a bad line, just made good

@@Organise_Space lol
still looping this one 5 years later 👍💥🔥
This performance made me want to see them live in Glasgow, somehow they are just perfect live what a gig
I'm 50, a live music touring staff veteran of decades. I have seen it all. Twice. But this is as real as anything I have ever seen. I didn't think it was possible for me to fall in love with music again. Thanks for sharing this immaculate disaster.
Amen 🙏🏻
Same, I'm mid forties with decades into touring. You hit the nail on the head. These guys are special. We know it when we see it.
I was just released today from the hospital after a horrendous car accident, I've been craving something in the punk vein, but been getting tired of listening to the same IDLES songs. Vigara Boys bring so many different influences and approaches to the indy/punk style. They are truly unique, and providing me with the best possible distraction from broken limbs. Much love!
Lol. Immaculate Disaster would be an awesome band name
Damn Right, I'm seeing these mfers in September. I can't fuckin wait.
As someone who enjoys shrimps, this band gets my approval.
on repeat for the next 15 years
For as long as they shell it out.😍
hahah... crazy band.. on repeat for few days now .. crazy ^^
@@minimaluser2132 Nice one, thanks!
Dont be so negative you might have more then 15 years left.
🤞
For starters...
I'm 70 and very much digging this music!
Must be all the shrimp young man 🤙🏻
Absolutely, the best band ever.
real post punk. not just the aesthetics, but the ethos
Great take.
Dirty Sax is the best
Viagra Boys are hard.....to categorise. I love the way the instruments dive in and out, and no-one overplays. Rare. Unique. The sort of band you stumble upon, then they become the soundtrack to your existence. Clowns, All Them Witches, Idles and now Viagra Boys. It's been a great couple of years of new music for this 54 year old .
xasperations I’m 43 - I love this band instantly.
Yes ! Good music is coming back ! You should check out our first EP ;) from Australia
Yeah, hard, viagra will do that too yah
They make it sound so easy/basic, just like joy division, stranglers...or etc...did it. Being very careful with the flow of it all.
And in my opinion they achieved it half through the arrangements, such as they make them - that the least amount of fiddling around with 'complicating instrumental resistance' and overproducing goes on, and the other half is the sound aspect of the whole thing. Which is fucking airtightI
P.s.
I think there's no problem to get them cataloged - file under R'n'R, just like Motorhead or Morphine. Debatable, sure, but not really. If the Boys haven't made it obvious, then its straight forward R'n'R-ish stuff
There's a real grown up, adult vibe to them alright. Music for angry dads and blue collar wage slaves who get lit at weekends.
This whole video is dedicated to the people who say there's no good music anymore.
there's plenty of great music these days its just that mainstream music in recent years is the worst that its ever been
@@Nantosuelta general top40 radiopop is way better than what it was in the 2000's and even the 90's
@@Nantosuelta
So so so bang on.
Well dont give em proof
He performs really well here. He must have done a lot of sports.
Winston cigarettes sports )
A gram of volleyball and an ounce of Weiner dog
He took the amphetamine up his arse so he's just getting started really
It started with a shrimp sandwich and a big Ole bag of research chemicals
Speedball and bad-ampheta-minton with a bunch of dripping wiener dogs accompanied by a really fat bass…
These guys became one of my favorite bands overnight pretty much.
Same here..
Sometimes it's hard to find music to smoke dope to in the morning. This band never lets me down.
Dope being heroin?
Loser.
*fist bump across time and space*
Now that's a sport
@@clvrswine I believe he's referencing the lyrics from sports
RIP Ben!!! surfing that shrimp sandwich in the sky!
Someone was listening to these guys in the car next to me and me and my buddy were crackin up cuz we'd hear "VOLLEYBALL" "WIENER DOG" etc and of course we shazamed it and they are the greatest band of all time
idk where you live but that sounds fucking awesome
He'll yeah!
I can just picture that - pissing meself
i have yet to meet someone else who knows them..
Fallin' asleep - Sunglasses on...Yeah, that's a sport...
RIP Benis...thanks for all the soul fuel you left us man...
this band is definitely forklift certified
I've just claimed my old age pension and I love this band
I stopped drinking after fifteen years of abuse, i stopped drugs for twenty years, Hell i even stopped doing pills, and now....... I Got addicted to your music. Many thanks Bastian.
Take my hat off to you my friend. Well done. Take care. 🏴
This is honestly one of the best live recordings ever. Absolutely love this band
These guys are my soundtrack to the apocalypse
glad with Mad Maxx Vaxxx
The soundtrack of everyday s**t you say?
I bet when they started simulating our universe they would never have guessed the best song ever written would be about sneaking a frog into a secret meeting
I just found out about these dudes yesterday and I am blown away. THIS is my new favorite band. Fear meets Swans meets The Cramps meets Iggy meets Devo in the modern era. Good lord
These guys are fucking wild, a genre of it's own. It's like this mangle of everything, i'm reminded of a little Morphine, a little Tom Waits, a little Fields of Nephilim, a little Bloodshot Bill, some punk and country and everything in between and a whole lot of their own thing with a sax, mean bass and sexy tattoo gourd Pear bod. HOT DAMN
This is a better review than anything that ever appeared in Pitchfork.
I'm glad they remind someone else of Morphine! I was wondering if that was a weird comparison.
And Cramps and The Birthday Party and Pixies and The Fall….they are great! They are on the top of the actual playlist together with Fontaines D.C. and Meryl Streek.
I was thinking Morphine meets The Fall myself but those others too definitely. I missed out on these guys until I decided to see what they were about on the TV doing a set at Glastonbury this last weekend and they absolutely blew me away. That set is deffo worth a watch if you can get hold of it.
@@skellygirlx It isn't. Anything with sax in and driving basslines is Morphine-esque, there should be more of it!
O M G just discovered these guys two days ago.. Can't get enough of if. They're playing in my city in two days. What a time to be alive
I have just discovered them! I’m obsessed !!
Lucky you. Did you go see em?
I just discovered them a month ago. People tell me they sound like my band (sounded, 15y ago). They are amazing and beautiful chaos.
@@michelehemlokhexwhite4310 Yes !! Was hard to find a ticket but I did, and it was something. So much energy, everyone dancing... they come back to my city in december and I'm going again :) can you share a track from your band ?
@@MrSylthas thanks for asking. Lucky you.... seeing them twice! My band has a history of being double booked at studios multiple times with Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds 😂
I'm ancient-ish.... but I hope to hook up with VB one of these days in the scene!
Que la tierra te pese poco carnal, RIP Benjamin.
R.I.P bro ....fine guitarist x
This is the best version of down in the basement on the Internet
And Shrimp Shack
I feel like every song of this performance is the best of theirs on the internet, not to detract from their other performances but damn, this is good
They sound amazing on all the shrimp sessions
I was just doing acid and listening to this, while smoking a cone and even though I've heard this song a million times, I still laughed and coughed up my last cone on the break down in sports...
You must've be really fucked. There's actually several songs in this video :)
These versions are even better than on record!!
As a metal head this kind of music is becoming my norm and i love it!
All metal heads secretly like punk
Been a metal head pretty much my whole life, but last couple of years really been getting into punk. There are a lot of similarities, especially in early thrash, you can see the punk influences. Plus there's something so genuine, no f's given and raw about punk that's addictive.
@@JamoonXerxesSauber punk is what kicked me off with metal sex pistols Ramoes the dammed etc
SPORTS!
Emmanuel Vallieres wiener dog
СПОРТ
Basketball
Cigarretes!
Buying things off the Internet
I can't help but laugh (in a good way) when the sax player really gets going. 10/10
rip Benjamin Valle, you're riffs were the best. I hope you stay rocking on in the afterlife🤙
12th playthrough....I hear frantic playful Madness rhythms, chugging Misfits guitar, chaotic Romeo Void drums and sax with some menacing Jello Biafra
frontwork ....this is just brilliant music.
Dude sounds like the lead of the jesus lizard too
It does remind me of The Stooges a little bit too
@@dizzoc8220 for sure!
This might be thee single coolest TH-cam live session I've ever seen, camera work is 10/10
is that a dad joke? Looks very cool indeed inside the freezer! Incidentally I agree, especially the forklift cam.
We don’t deserve this 45 minutes. Absolute. Gold.
He sounds the same live, unbelievable.
Everyone's favorite concept band. The thing is they go well beyond a concept..
best band of all time in the fucking world, its the only band that can make me do something in my day, its my gasoline, its when I face the big boss of depression with only a greatsword ok you guys got it already
I can't imagine ever getting bored of the viagra boys. So many layers of sound to keep my mind at attention. Goddamn, I love them.
RIP Benjamin,you left an incredible game changing band. An awesome break from the norm 👏👏👏❤️❤️
Reminds me of the Stranglers, especially the bass. Great stuff.
I want to know if sebastian is fork lift certified
My good friend and I came across the song they did with Amy Taylor and thought it was a great laugh, and then we picked this session to see what they’re all about. Holy hell man these guys are actually really awesome and fun to listen to. Was even more surprised to find out how recent all their stuff is. Looks like a video from the 90s. Now I listen to these guys all the time. It’s really hard to find new music that I enjoy anymore. This live session is beyond amazing.
It seems like most people laugh on their first listen. I know I did, and I’ve seen a few comments on their vids to the same effect. My sister played me the first minute of “sports” and I was like “it’s a dude with a cowboy voice saying random words, haha!” but then I was like “eh, let’s listen to something else”
But eventually it clicks. My sister followed up a few months later and was like “have you kept listening to viagra boys?” and I was like, not really? But fine, I’ll give them a second chance, and it was seeing the VIDEO for sports where I was like… oh, I love this dudes whole vibe and energy, and then I’ve spiralled into a closer and closer orbit. I’m now planning a frogstrap costume for when I hopefully get to see them live one day!
When I first heard them I legit thought they were from the 90s. Happy to find a relatively recent band with that 90s type of vibe
I want “The same worms that eat me someday will eat you too” on my tombstone.
I’m gonna get “Weiner dog!” on mine
I want on my tombstone "I'm fuckin Surfin!"
@@Humble-iq5ue "...with your mom!" LMAO your idea is even better. You gotta make the tombstone look like a surfboard sticking out the ground.
@@BD-yl5mh SPORTS!
Lol I might have .. the research chemicals were too good 😊😅😊
haven't heard anything as hot since I was a kid, and didn't expect to ever again
It`s like if PiL was a great band. Something like that. Can`t wait to see these guys live on some festival after this fucking pandemic is over. But the pandemic is probably the reason I discovered them as I have had time to find new music, so thank you pandemic. Fuck I`m so confused.
tacno tako, nikad nisam mislio da ce nwko pokidati ovaj sound opet ko oni....luuudilo
Those warehouse workers got to experience one of the best free shows they will ever attend
Undoubtedly one of the coolest bands ever.
How does this keep getting better with each listen??
Sweden is a place of such creativity, there's must be something in the tap water
Or their water isn't fucked up with chemicals and metals. Either way, I hope they keep drinking it.
Afaik they have music education all throughout school, so a lot more kids grow up with music and have that outlet encouraged
The swedes have a very special bond to singing and music. They always end up singing songs when drunk. It never fails.
@ the lead singer is American LOL
@@johnlowell5833 Nope.
This has way better sound than a live show in an active (!!) warehouse should. Props to the audio engineers. And special shout out to that guitar player, who's not getting enough love on this comment thread. His backbeat playing is awesome and his tone is perfect. Great band. Random thought: that first track is like if Robert Palmer got into the modern post-punk scene.
Totally see palmer
If Tom Waits were an entire outfit, this is them. Thanks THPS 1&2 for introducing me to even more righteous music 25 years later. RIP Ben Valle
This is a drug for me now, i keep coming back for more.
it's mental how good this is
What everyone wishes their band could sound like.
this rules so hard
Snes drunk in the building love channel mate love from 🇬🇧 just discovered these guys ....... loving it
Oh shit, now i got even more respect for you
SNES drunk!
Snes drunk. Good shit
i love your channel mate and your music taste as it seems!
It's not healthy masculinity, but it's not toxic
I called it! Stated they were ready for the USA and here they come! March 20th, the Echo Sunset Blvd, LA California! LOL.
Amphetanarchy: oooohhh shit! Have a new driving piece of music. Love the intro to it. UNIQUE, intelligent music.
This gets these guys on the map...with a bullet (for us older guys).
Frogstrap is such a modern classic of a song.
it somehow makes zero and all the sense, simultaneously
New order voice, stranglers bass and synth, tank of Danzig sax. Awesome!!!!!!!!!
Wow! What attack! Great fucking band! Reminds me of Stooges/ NY Downtown Voidoids. Great stuff....
Daaaaamn!.... Right now when I was thinking that IDLES were probably the most interesting band of 2018!... Insane rhythm section, insane voice, insane sinths, insane gritty minimal approach! Sooo good!
Funny, I'm addicted to both right now and also can't decide.
Rui Garrido idles are babies compared to VB
@@kirflaska :)) guess you're right! so stoked to them. Finally got Street Worms on vinyl!
Anyone that can relate to that comment is mega cool love you
Rui Garrido ohhhh tough competition... idles are super strong live though, and i haven’t been able to see viagra boys live so i cannot tell whether they’re that brilliant live... yet :)
Defo two of the best contemporary bands though
"Surfin my way through life.. on a fuckin' shrimp sandwich!"
Liked it.
Downloaded it.
Play on repeat daily.
Still cannot get enough.
Someone help.
Sorry, but that's the way it is now. Forever...
I lost my job but I find my kind of music. I' m sitting wasted af. My new fav band. Greetings from Poland. Thanks so much
This has become therapy i never knew i needed.
I needed this. Just a normal amount of suicidal thoughts came to visit me today. Trying to stay off booze.
you're doing great mate x
Why?
@@ergbudster3333 !? ... ?!!?!?!?
Go for a brisk walk in nature with this pumping in your ears.
hang in there 🖤
I just heard all of you about 3 weeks ago .I'm 66 and I can't believe I really like your music .You are keeping it real rock on
Shrimps Sessions are the best.
Just the best band I've had thrust into my mind in, what, 10 years? Something like that.. real music still lives!! I'd almost given up the hope.
You guys really juice my goose... The wharehouse concert should be an industry standard from now on.
This is so hype yet so laid back and nonchalant it really just fuckin gets me going and I don't even have to stand up
Viagra Boys just killed it at Desert Daze Festival at Lake Perris, CA last night. Many new fans were made.
WTF Wasn't I invited. I didn't really know about them until a week ago.. :(
I wish I would have known about these guys earlier. Long time until in SF again. So sad.
Amphetanarchy is awesome
You ever feel like something just sound right? This definitely does
The best music I've found in years
Aint heard bass like that since Wilko Johnson rocked my world.
This is like Ween, The Talking Heads and the Cramps tried to abort a baby they had but it was too resilient. This band is so refreshing for the alt rock scene. Hope they do a huge tour. Worms is such a disgusting and beautiful love song. Love this band.
don't forget the sex pistols
a bit devo too
James Chance and the Contortions
a bit of the voice of pearl jam in "do the evolution"
Actually I was thinking the Cramps, a little bit of Iggy Pop and some Nick Cave, but way better, cuz I am not a big fan of any of them
Don't you just love it when you find a new band you'll love until you die ❣️
seeing these guys in concert for the first time might be the thing i'm looking forward to most after covid
was a very lovely show im mesmerised and keep coming back
this is like what I always wish Talking Heads would do. But they were not badass enough. Slow Learner is so groovy. What an interesting band. I will definitely spread the word
Yeah! These guys are like the nect iteration of Talking Heads or Devo and they're doing it way better
Hey, Kid.... Talking heads were sky rocket high wonderful in the day...
You mean like they did in the live production of Stop Making Sense that was recorded in 5.1 surround so it could be played to audiences around the world in the ground breaking THX? I love these guys but don't shit on The Heads by not researching their work.
@@zoiders I love the Talking Heads, and i would say they are the far superior band woth a richer and more significant history. I don't think my comment was meant to be taken as seriously as you are taking it.
Rip Benj Valle
i'm proud just to be here listening;
also edit. I think sports are really tiring too; that's why you gotta sing about it on the floor every time.
RIP Benjamin
i cannot put into words how happy the VBOYS have made me . At last a proper band with some swagger.
Let’s get this shrimp y’all
A Deep Fried Rat 🐀 Ima surf away on this shrimp sandwich
Love the whole vhc look.
New favourite lockdown band by a fuckin mile.
My neighbours are listening to this right now. How do I know? They don't have a choice in the matter.
Christian Brady fuck yeah brother
@@ariescustom that doesnt sound very neighbourly
Is it three in the morning where you live?
Headphones are a neat invention tbh. Say "hi" to other cavemen, who are also hallucinating that they are special snowlakes and the world must spin solely around their wack attention-whore type personas. Ever think someone had a night shift or is preparing for exams, or simply wants some peace in his/her personal space?
What kind of distorted logic makes you feel like you're somehow more important than everyone else and have the right to disturb people? Did you invent or create something significant? And even if you did - modesty is a sign of greatness, and the loudest in the room usually have the least to say.
P.S. Fuck your solipsistic worldview and your justifications for acting like an idiot. Do you get paid to be low conscious and ignorant, or that's just your "style" to compensate for the lack of mind and heart? What you're doing is making you're existance known, thinking it adds some importance and value to your ego. In reality - it doesn't and nobody could care less.
No one will be able to love you until you learn to love and respect yourself, and conscious people who learned that would never behave themselves like yourself. You're a human being for fuck sake, not a baboon, who's main concerns are food, sleep, fucking and throwing fieces at other baboons. *Evolve, motherfucker!*
Эволюционер bro it was a joke calm down lmao
I miss Mark E Smith. I miss The Fall. But when I hear this, I have big hopes for the future. You guys ROCK 🤘🤘🤘
So true didn’t even get the fall vibes now I feel like a big dummy
