With all the moral panics that people had about this kind of music somehow causing school shootings, there's something that feels like coming home to reimagine THE school shooting pop song in this format.
I am not a shooter, but if I were, I would totally listen to this version while I shoot. The original has too much "relaxing on a beach with a cold one" vibe.
It really does sound like something they would write. If I heard this without knowing it was a fan cover, I'd be fooled into thinking it was actually them. There's so much nuance to this cover.
I searched Spotify for it today during my works beer league hockey games. We play warm ups, intermission and whistle music. I will be playing this song during one of the warmups this week even if just on here. It would really set the tone.
This totally changes how I feel these lyrics now, and further exemplifies both how Foster the People mastered its irony as well as your own musical abilities. THANK YOU!
900 people in the comments said this exact same thing. Almost word for word. "Then proceeds to..." Are you all copy each other or do you all have the same exact thoughts independently? Genuine question with just a hint of feeling snarky and annoyed.
@@macglockylike is an understatement, what you do with these songs is nothing short of amazing and I love every single one. You’re truly one talented individual Mac.
You did it! The "better run, better run" part, slowing down the music then getting it violent again was sick... Adding the breach birth riff was cool too! NICE!
Your vocal distribution in the chorus is brilliant. The way you put the extra grit into "Outrun my gun" but finesse the line "faster than my bullet" is just such a great touch.
So what I learned from this video is that cheVelle, of whom I had never previously heard, are a band I had better check out, because I'm really digging the sound in this.
Nobody else quite hits like they do, do they? I usually listen to way heavier music than CheVelle now, but they still *feel* so heavy even with mostly clean vocals and fairly simple instrumentation. I don't know how they do it but I love it.
I would too. I got to have a meet and greet with them at x96 radio station in Utah. My mom won it so we could have a lasting memory to hang on to before “I hit puberty and started to think she wasn’t cool anymore.” We ate pizza with them, probably the most down to earth people. My mom isn’t around anymore, wish I could tell her how much I still cherish and talk about that memory with her. cheVelle will always hold a special place in my heart and I love these covers. Thanks Mac.
Whoever suggested this deserves as much kudos for seeing the perfect match you could create here! The result is dark, brooding and matching the lyrics so well.
Thanks! I’ve always was a fan of chevelle and I like pumped up kicks but have always wondered what the song would sound like in rock form and Mac absolutely delivered!
How does this dude not only nail the style and sound and feel, he also makes perfect arrangement changes and shifts in timing and tone to make these legitimately good songs. It's kind of bonkers the consistency.
Holy Crap! You gave this song the angst ti was missing and amplified the psychosis of the person who this song was about. This song is so much more intense and believable. WOW
I never expected this song to fit so well with Chevelle but the lyrics really lend themselves to this genre! Chevelle was a perfect fit. Yeah man, you nailed it.
I can’t get enough of this song, it’s amazing in every way, you are a legend sir. I’d love to see a video where you go over your gear you use that gets you that amazing sound!
I need you to know that I can't stop listening to your covers, Mr. Glocky. You have 100% been the silver-lining to a very shitty couple of weeks. Thanks, man!
And that chorus comes in like a ton of bricks, this would absolutely get airplay! Edit: Just played it for my daughter and she said “THAT sounds like it should sound!”
Was gonna get on here to listen to this like 6 times then complain in the comments about it not being on spotify...but it's on there so I'm gonna go put it on repet there for a bit. Thank you!!!
This is how this song should’ve been performed in the first place. 100% could be a new song that Chevelle just dropped What a masterpiece The lines Better run better run outrun my gun Is such a Chevelle line and the way it’s delivered. Like this is actually a good song as a real song This dude is Uber Talented.
When the video starts with a humble "I can try", you know it's going to be a hit. If ColdFusion wrote "The Impression That I Get" by the Mighty Mighty Bosstones
TH-cam is full of very talented people, but Mac you have something special. You are unbelievably talented! Its mind boggling every single time you make a video or even you're own original music you absolutely kill it!
Love chevelle and while Pete's vocal range can be harder to emulate I think you nailed the style of the music and his singing method. Very nice work my friend
Not going to lie, i didnt know all the lyrics that song.... damn! I saw Mac and instantly clicked! You are out of this world! Talented as hell! I just keep binging the content, truly amazing! Thank you for bring joy in a tough time 💜😊
this goes hard and Loeffler's vocal mannerisms are spot on, as is the entire production. more chevelle plz! (preferably doing a silly pop song but whatever floats your boat)
I absolutely love the vitriolic delivery of the word "pumped" in the chorus. Haven't been able to stop thinking about this version since I heard it three days ago. This is awesome.
If you want to hear a good Björk cover, a band called Down and Above covered Joga many years ago. The bassist from that band, Ian Allison, has gone on to have a decent session and social media career.
"IT WASN'T ME" - Disturbed is streaming on Spotify and Apple Music :)
Already bought it. Thanks man. That song/version kicks @ss
Full version?
awesome!!!
Paused the video to go and find it on Spotify! Too excited to wait the end but I’m back now.
I need this song in my Spotify playlist
"i can try" he said...
my man... you didn't try... you fucking did it...
Seriously this has to be one of the most talented people on TH-cam and he's quite humble
Sounds much better than the original.
Oh and he fuckin nailed it!!
One of the sickest covers I have heard in a while!!!
Awesome
"I can try" proceeds to make one of the best songs I ever heard in my life
Dude. Seriously! 🤣🤣
Word!
To be fair, this guitar hook is literally Breach Birth by CheVelle just in a different key
Exactly my thought. xD
This sincere "i can try" and immedite banger sound a second later xD
Yeah no kidding
Wow, these lyrics are way more haunting in this style. Well done
It definitely wouldn't have gotten air time😂
Mac Glocky is an incredible musician and cover artist. He drops bangers from time to time.
With all the moral panics that people had about this kind of music somehow causing school shootings, there's something that feels like coming home to reimagine THE school shooting pop song in this format.
I am not a shooter, but if I were, I would totally listen to this version while I shoot. The original has too much "relaxing on a beach with a cold one" vibe.
Wife: “How many times are you going to listen to that song?”
Me: turns it up even louder
I’m sorry what?
@@shaneb353 this guy has a WIFE? What a nerd
This feels genuinely organic, like there is a world where Chevelle writes exactly this. Another excellent cover, my friend. You have a gift.
It really does sound like something they would write. If I heard this without knowing it was a fan cover, I'd be fooled into thinking it was actually them. There's so much nuance to this cover.
The sound is dead on, but lyrically the song doesn’t fit Chevelle. They don’t usually write with such apparent themes
Agreed, lyrically wouldn't be something they'd write, as for matching the style, that is super dead on, hahaha.
I want to hear Chevelle cover the song now just to see.
@@posesepulu3771unless this isn't about actual guns but had some deeper meaning...
I love this version better. This needs to be on Spotify too
I searched Spotify for it today during my works beer league hockey games. We play warm ups, intermission and whistle music. I will be playing this song during one of the warmups this week even if just on here. It would really set the tone.
Agreed
Some of his songs are impressive / funny to see the smash up of styles, but this song is so good!
Also Amazon music! I listen to this daily at the moment
Not on TH-cam music yet
I honestly like this version better than the original. Anyone else feeling the same way?
Me too. Another good version of Pumped Up Kicks I'd recommend is by a band called 3Teeth.
Absolutely!
Hard to say. Lol they both so good
Dude I feel the same, this slaps hard
Hell ya!
i've been listening to chevelle for 20 years. you had this sound nailed INSTANTLY. somebody get pete & sam to listen to this!!
Right!
This totally changes how I feel these lyrics now, and further exemplifies both how Foster the People mastered its irony as well as your own musical abilities.
THANK YOU!
Mac: "Umm...I...I'll...I can try." Then proceeds to absolutely destroy it! Well done!
Godlike
Epic.
I think he wants a break from the Chevelle covers
Seriously. Idk guys I'll give it a shot.... then spits out another masterpiece.
900 people in the comments said this exact same thing. Almost word for word. "Then proceeds to..." Are you all copy each other or do you all have the same exact thoughts independently? Genuine question with just a hint of feeling snarky and annoyed.
You single-handedly got me on a Chevelle Binge. Jars is an incredible song that I didn't know existed till yesterday.
I think that song dropped when I was 14. Turning 30 tomorrow and it really hasn't left my playlist
Sci-fi crimes is a great album. My favorite of theirs honestly.
LOVE me some Jars
You should check out "i get it" or "self-destructor" if u havent
@@jonathanrowland9963 I've been listening to Stray Arrows: A Collection of Favorites and all of these are on there. It's all so good.
Bro how the hell you make this masterpiece so freaking fast?!?! And thank you for this.
Glad you like! Good suggestion 🤘

@@stegwisethat honestly sounds so tough to create. Haha
You did it! The "better run, better run" part, slowing down the music then getting it violent again was sick... Adding the breach birth riff was cool too! NICE!
Please add this on Spotify my guy. It's a damn banger that I'd love to add to my Playlist
It bothers me that i cant add it to my playlist on spotify -.-
Same.
I went to my Spotify to find it and was so disappointed it wasn't there!😢 It's so good!
This is why I use TH-cam music
@@Peppa_Pig_Fan86HOW DO YOU GET IT ON YT MUSIC?? Help
the "better run faster than my gun" line is such a Chevelle line
Probably because of take out the gunman
I think that’s what makes it, because it sounds straight out of a chevelle song
That's the part that sounds most like Chevelle
Awesome, a prequel to 'Take out the Gunman"
underrated comment
I was thinking the same good catch 🤘
Haha!
Goddamn that song fuckin rules
This was my thoughts exactly
Your vocal distribution in the chorus is brilliant. The way you put the extra grit into "Outrun my gun" but finesse the line "faster than my bullet" is just such a great touch.
This is a whole new song, seriously. The vibe matches the lyrics and it just makes it so bone chillingly dark. Kudos man, what another epic.
So what I learned from this video is that cheVelle, of whom I had never previously heard, are a band I had better check out, because I'm really digging the sound in this.
Yessir, they’re fantastic
The best
Sci fi crimes album is 🔥
Such a great band. Did you end up checking them out? 😁 If you want the songs that this cover seems to pull from, check out Vitamin R and Breach Birth.
@@musicisum0405 I checked out a few songs. Some I liked. Some not so much. All in all, I'd say I like the band.
I legit cannot stop listening to this, I mean Jesus dude, you killed it.
I would pay for more chevelle covers. I crave their sound. Their already vast discography is not enough for me. I NEED MORE!!
💯
Nobody else quite hits like they do, do they? I usually listen to way heavier music than CheVelle now, but they still *feel* so heavy even with mostly clean vocals and fairly simple instrumentation. I don't know how they do it but I love it.

I've seen them a few times now and they are legitimately one of my favorite live acts.

This actually made me fall back in love with Chevelle. They used to be heavy in my playlist in high school. Dude, you nailed it.
They're still heavy.
He meant they were in his playlist a lot
They're my favorite band of all time I just seen them in August in Buffalo they are criminally underrated and Pete is such a talented vocalist
How does this dude not only nail the style and sound and feel, he also makes perfect arrangement changes and shifts in timing and tone to make these legitimately good songs. It's kind of bonkers the consistency.
High intelligence
mac should just start producing for some of these bands - hes writing their new songs better than them
so incredible how you get those little details that make it easier to hear the nuances of the bands sound and style. you are a such a great creative.
The way you nail the little nuances of Pete’s vocals is mesmerizing!
If Korn wrote Whip It by Devo
Head's band Love and Death has done this. Sure, it's not Korn, but kinda.

Love your music, man. You've got one of the best screams I've heard. You put your soul into it and that's hard to find.
You put every ounce of possible effort into impersonating the characteristics of the bands. Good work bro!
The vibe here matches the lyrics much better than the original. Most excellent.
The original seemed like they might be trying to disguise the lyrics enough to get airplay
Exactly
That's the best thing about the original though, its this stupidly catchy pop song...then you actually listen to the lyrics.
Hell yeah!!
The vibes from the original Pumped Up Kicks was entirely intentional. That was kind of the entire point of it. That said, this bangs.
Holy Crap! You gave this song the angst ti was missing and amplified the psychosis of the person who this song was about. This song is so much more intense and believable. WOW
I never expected this song to fit so well with Chevelle but the lyrics really lend themselves to this genre! Chevelle was a perfect fit. Yeah man, you nailed it.

I’d love to see a video where you go over your gear you use that gets you that amazing sound!
This is nice!!! This is the second cover ive found that tops the original! Great work!
Gotta get this one to Spotify! I can’t get enough of it!
Excellent cover!
How about if Deftones wrote Iris by Goo Goo Dolls?
No
@@kchannel9464yes
Yes
Hell yeah I asked the same thing
Yes
Sounds good...just like Chevelle man. More Chevelle covers plz!
Agreed.
Chevelle doesn't get enough love, and I'm grateful to see such an amazing tribute in this track. Amazing work!
Thanks....now I'm going on a Chevelle binge for the next week
Seriously tho...you absolutely killed this, beautiful job!
You're single handedly getting me back into Chevelle
That tone just reminds me of vena sera that’s so good dude 🤘🤘
My fav album of theirs 😅
The melodies on that album are just not human
Vena Sera is the goat
Oh absolutely has that Vena Sera sound
@@lastnamefirst650 The fad would be a trip.
“I can try” proceeds to create an absolutely incredible cover of this song, I’d argue better than the original. Subscribed. Amazing.
Way fucking better.
Bout to say the same… “I can try”
Immediately rips my face off
Been a Chevelle fan since the early 2000’s. This was wonderfully done, thank you! ❤
I need you to know that I can't stop listening to your covers, Mr. Glocky. You have 100% been the silver-lining to a very shitty couple of weeks.
Thanks, man!
And that chorus comes in like a ton of bricks, this would absolutely get airplay!
Edit: Just played it for my daughter and she said “THAT sounds like it should sound!”
It really does! Just played it for my mother and she got goosebumps everywhere
Chevelle needs to cover this immediately
This is by far My favorite cover you have done.
Island in the sun in the style of system of a down
@@InfectiousBeef Oh, yes, please! I love both of those bands!
I would buy the fuck out of an album basedentirely on the strength of this track. Dude, you're awesome.
Oh my god the shivers i got going into the first chorus. Absolutely fuggin NAILED it dude!!
It's crazy how you can always match the voices of the bands you cover! Awesome mix, as always!!!
This is absolutely amazing dude. I wish this was on Spotify
This is excellent! Guitar tone is a little bit of Point #1 vibes
Was gonna get on here to listen to this like 6 times then complain in the comments about it not being on spotify...but it's on there so I'm gonna go put it on repet there for a bit. Thank you!!!
I was not expecting this to sound this freaking accurate.... sounds like it would fit "This type of thinking" perfectly! Amazing work man!

This is one of the your best dude they chorus is amazing.
Nice Breach Birth style on the main riff, Vitamin R vibe in the chorus, and Well Enough Alone rhythm in the bridge.
Love chevelle and while Pete's vocal range can be harder to emulate I think you nailed the style of the music and his singing method. Very nice work my friend
