I'm almost 54, I've been listening to music for a long time. I'm sorry if I inflate your egos but I LOVE your music! Each and every one of you has a unique "coolness" that I can't describe, you all are definitely a collection of old souls. 😊👍🏻 Thanks!
I keep coming back... like daily Some songs are just perfect... they max out the melody's full potential. Doesn't need to be too complex.. its just perfect
I am an aspiring bass player, and I agree that Nikki is a great bass player and deserves recognition as a great artist of the heavy strings! Of course, the whole band are excellent musicians.
That's the good thing about Silversun Pickups. They're not jaded or tainted. They do their own thing without an excuse, apology ,or compromise!!! Nothing to prove. They kinda ride the line between mainstream & independent. They are a known band with a good following of fans!! 😁🐸🤓👍✌️
I only know of their older songs, but listening to this it sounds like they have changed but, unlike most bands from that time, it sounds amazing! The change fits them perfectly and I still hear the young pickups in there
Fuck the age thing good music is REAL. You can praise the people who play but you lost the point, THE MUSIC is OUR LIFE IN MOTION. Bless your skills and grant immortality to your songs. Your are truly what music lost, except for those who are here and ready to move to the next revolution of thought,life,love,and evolution of OUR souls.
They were the last band i caught live, a week before it all closed down. I created a choreography to It Doesnt Matter Why, please give it a look if you have some time! th-cam.com/video/tcC_jQIYym0/w-d-xo.html
This song demonstrates the progression of the band into bonafide super stars. This sounds like dreams meets happy! Superfan here impressed like never before!
been listening to them since 2007. saw them live in NY 10 years ago. Love all their albums. my favorite song is The Royal We. Please continue to make great music! 🙏
Me too! It inspired the editing of a dance choreo i made to It Doesnt Matter Why, please check it out if ya wanna see dancing to rock music! th-cam.com/video/tcC_jQIYym0/w-d-xo.html
Everytime I hear silversun pickups I think of my "young" adult life. I was insane but you bring me a very nice nostalgic feeling. Keep on doing your thing.
Love this song. It’s like a slow-motion mind melter hitting you with a wave of notes that splashes with emotional moments when it hits. Felt like I experienced an entire movie in that moment and was happy yet sad when it was over.
Lyric: Oh I need a fresh start now, reboot the machine Oh I'm a ghost up in the clouds now, so frightening Oh Face down in a fountain, soaking wet Oh My body's growing into my silhouette I can see now you wanted to play Hurry back, I think they're closing the gate But I fear it's just a moment too late Don't know what you're gunning for Should I hit the deck, fall through the floor? Don't know what you're thinking of Do I chip away or keep defenses up? Don't make a sound if it gets too loud Will you hear me come around? Oh Fade into the sounds that we can't avoid Oh I'm addicted to the soundtrack, I need the noise Are you screaming from the other side? Believe me, I know what it's like To lay awake all through the night Don't know what you're gunning for Should I hit the deck, fall through the floor? Don't know what you're thinking of Do I chip away, or keep defenses up? Don't make a sound if it gets too loud Will you hear me come around? Don't know what you're gunning for Should I hit the deck, fall through the floor? Don't know what you're thinking of Do I chip away, or keep defenses up? Don't make a sound if it gets too loud Will you hear me come around? Don't know what you're gunning for Should I hit the deck, fall through the floor? (What you're gunning for) Don't know what you're thinking of Do I chip away, or keep defenses up? (I'll keep defenses up) Don't make a sound if it gets too loud Will you hear me come around? (Gets around, oh, it gets around) Don't know what you're gunning for Should I hit the deck, fall through the floor? (Fall through the floor) Don't know what you're thinking of Do I chip away, or keep defenses up? (I'll keep defenses up) Don't make a sound if it gets too loud Will you hear me come around? (Hear me come around, you hear me come around) I can see now you wanted to play Hurry back, I think they're closing the gate But I fear it's just a moment too late
This band never ceases to amaze. They are the model of consistency when it comes to creating amazing content with a perfect blend of everything that is awesome music...need more groups like this! Just prefect.
Man I’ve been a fan since 2008ish and I absolutely love every album they’ve put out. I don’t know what it is about “Widow’s Weeds” that’s just so so so good. It’s probably my favorite album, which is weird to me because of how long I’ve been listening to their music. I hope they never stop creating! ♥️ P.s. Physical Thrills is turning out to be another banger! I really like “Empty Nest” and “Scared Together”
One of the best days of my life was being in the audience of their concert at Lollapalooza Brazil in 2017. I always get emotional when I realize how this band became my favorite one so organically and how they never cease to amaze. I wasn’t into this album on the first hearings but now I’ve been listening to it everyday.
Idk if this band is for younger people, but I'm 45, and I've been a fan since I first returned to America in 2011. This is great music and songwriting that keeps the guitar energy alive. The tension building arrangements....it's everything great about the 90s alt scene, but with an updated pop mentality. I saw you guys in Denver a few years ago.....I'm just hooked. Silversuns is my most listened to Pandora channel. Never stop.
Hogwash sir! This band got me through high school back in 2012. I like their first 3 albums better. Their recent album was good but it wasn’t impressive because everybody wants to sound like the 80’s.
I just heard this one for their first time at their concert in Sacramento and I'm obsessed. I've always big a huge fan of theirs, but now even more so.
one of the most consistently great bands i have ever had the pleasure of listening to. Not a single bad record, or even subpar record, in their catalogue . Another great song.
This whole album reminds me of my holiday in my camper in Cornwall this summer.....had the whole thing for 6 hours there and all the way round. It will always hold a special place in my memories. #SSPU
I just recently discovered this fantastic band, and I really love your music! Your intelligent lyrics, great melodies and instrumental skills totally ROCK! I am an aspiring bass player, and I am working on getting "Panic Switch" nailed down. I really dig that bass line! Tons of respect for Nikki and her unpretentious but expert bass playing!
'Rusted Wheel' was the first song of yours that blew my doors off. All these amazing ditties later and it's nice to see your songwriting is still spectacular.
vaguely listened to their hits in the mid 00s without realizing how fucking good they are!!!! This past year I have rediscovered them and ....holy cow......they are tremendous!
As a singer/guitar player/alt songwriter, Brian is still - since like 2009 - my most influential musician. He is such a guitar-forward musician: he still relies on licks, solos, and a ton of pedalboard tinkering to make verse melodies, transition between song elements, and build dynamics. In this song, how cool is the non-amped recording of an electric guitar before the chorus? Or the big verby bend at the end of the chorus? And nope, not my favorite solo, but how many solos do you still hear on the radio? I own an Epiphone Sheraton (similar to the one seen in the beginning of this video!) because I thought it was the coolest thing in high school that a player of his skill would still use a budget guitar at the biggest level. I love the guitar - and I love that SSPU through all their tonal changes allows the guitar to experiment, grow, and adapt to the changes. And that's just Brian. Do any of you musicians geek out about the keys/synth, bass, or drums?
been listening since 2006... great band. One of the very few fine bands that are relatively new... Although they remind me of the 90s, Im glad they started way later and not that particular decade. Otherwise they wouldve probably had a life of 4 years... Please come to Nicaragua, at least just to surf some waves, If Im lucky enough I might just catch you at least on an spontaneous gig or jam.
![The War On Drugs - I Don't Live Here Anymore (feat. Lucius) [Official Music Video]](/img/n.gif)
I hope they never stop making music.
Same. I love them since "Lazy Eye".
Favorite band.
Since little lovers so pollite and well thought out twinkles Loved them
Никогда, никогда, никогда✊
I'd cease to exist.
Tune in Monday as we premiere the official video for our new single “Don’t Know Yet.” We’ll have more exciting news to share with the video release!
From ITALY ,POMPEI , VESUVIUS ,
bye and good luck ,
you are an original group and outside the box
Wish you would come out to Colorado again.
Silversun Pickups hope you come to Australia soon. Can’t wait.
You guys are awesome! Greetings from Bulgaria!
Ahh this is so gooood! Would you ever play in Singapore?
How can they be this good??!! Seriously can't put out anything bad...one of the best bands of the past 20years. Way underrated
I'm almost 54, I've been listening to music for a long time. I'm sorry if I inflate your egos but I LOVE your music! Each and every one of you has a unique "coolness" that I can't describe, you all are definitely a collection of old souls. 😊👍🏻 Thanks!
im 44 and loving it just like you mate¡
Old Farts together. I'm 57 in 2 weeks, loved these guys since "Lazy Eye" and this is great.
very well said.
I'm almost 4 weeks old and I've been listening to music for almost 2 weeks now and I LOVE music googoo poopoo doodoo
I'm 48 and I've loved these guys since Growing Old is Getting Old. Ironic.
Extremely underrated band...💯👌🤙
The Guitar Solo... 🥰 This is absolute earcandy.
Yes, the solo is so beautiful! I started tearing up.
Absolutely Incredible. I replay this song over and over. But then again I replay all SSPUs music over and over. GREAT JOB! Keep it coming....
Heard this song on my alt station late at night and it gave me the goosebumps, love it. New fan right here, fantastic song.
Welcome!
I keep coming back... like daily
Some songs are just perfect... they max out the melody's full potential. Doesn't need to be too complex.. its just perfect
Love it live 😭
Such a complete song.
The earth is billions of years old and somehow, I managed to be alive at the same time as SSPUs! #LuckyASF #KeepKillingIt
Lol awesome way to express exactly how I feel 💯!!
Agreed!
Also love your profile pic!😊
That's super funny because literally the sum of all and the earth are all the same age.
Yes, perfectly said!
Dope right!
The Rhythm section really kills this song. Drums bass and Nikki's vocals, hard carry. Nikki is one of the most underrated bassists in rock tbh.
I am an aspiring bass player, and I agree that Nikki is a great bass player and deserves recognition as a great artist of the heavy strings! Of course, the whole band are excellent musicians.
The whole band did well
This!! Yes!! She really is!!
Such an underrated band!!! They should be so huge!
Kenneth Nichols these guys ARE huge... Carnavas cracked the music scene then Swoon fucking ripped it wide open
they were in a large selling baseball game a decade. Ever since then they have been popular and not underground or whatever other term you would use
That's the good thing about Silversun Pickups. They're not jaded or tainted. They do their own thing without an excuse, apology ,or compromise!!! Nothing to prove. They kinda ride the line between mainstream & independent. They are a known band with a good following of fans!! 😁🐸🤓👍✌️
My favorite, hate it when they are compared to Smashing Pumpkins lol
@@Sammie551 I agree although I would love to hear SSPU do a cover of Cherub Rock.
Should call this band what it truly is, "Pure Magic!" ❤
I only know of their older songs, but listening to this it sounds like they have changed but, unlike most bands from that time, it sounds amazing! The change fits them perfectly and I still hear the young pickups in there
Listen to everything they’ve done
This is so fire.
You're so fire.
Man my love for them grows after each and every play of their music. Have held a permanent spot in my regular rotation for over a decade now 🥰
Dont stop making music you're one of the only bands from my teen days that still stays true to your sound. Plus they dont seem to age!
Fuck the age thing good music is REAL. You can praise the people who play but you lost the point, THE MUSIC is OUR LIFE IN MOTION. Bless your skills and grant immortality to your songs. Your are truly what music lost, except for those who are here and ready to move to the next revolution of thought,life,love,and evolution of OUR souls.
Glad I got to see them live in concert. Oh my gosh this song winds up into an anthem! Dancing by myself in my room, hands held high! I love SSPU !
They were the last band i caught live, a week before it all closed down. I created a choreography to It Doesnt Matter Why, please give it a look if you have some time!
th-cam.com/video/tcC_jQIYym0/w-d-xo.html
loved these guys from the beginning. they've outdone themselves with this gem. brilliant!
They have one of the best albums of 2019. Don’t tell me you don’t feel it too when you listen to this or Straw Man. It’s just so cohesive.
Arman Afsar oh hell yeah!
I actually skip straw man as soon as it comes on. But otherwise yes, solid album
I agree. Straw Man is a masterpiece. Hooked from the beginning. Also love Bag of Bones and Simpatico. This album is their strongest in so long.
Strawman is my 2nd favorite on the album! I just wish it was longer. Neon Wound for me is number 1.it's a masterpiece and feels like classic sspu
Agreed!!!
This song demonstrates the progression of the band into bonafide super stars. This sounds like dreams meets happy! Superfan here impressed like never before!
Thank god we didn't mess up our finger snaps in Columbus, OH! Who knows what would have happened! Great song and video guys!
I'm 56 and this is one of my top fav bands...see u in Tulsa in November. I can't wait 🥰
This is a brilliant song. How does this not have millions of views?
been listening to them since 2007. saw them live in NY 10 years ago. Love all their albums. my favorite song is The Royal We. Please continue to make great music! 🙏
Love that it’s in Black and White!!!
Wow you're so artsy!!
Why?
Are you being sarcastic?
When its black and white...the color doesn't distract from the picture..as strange as that sounds
Me too! It inspired the editing of a dance choreo i made to It Doesnt Matter Why, please check it out if ya wanna see dancing to rock music!
th-cam.com/video/tcC_jQIYym0/w-d-xo.html
This band never stops making magical songs!!!
Best use of finger snaps since "Under Pressure".
The tambourine was low key heavy lifting...
The bridge makes me so happy
Everytime I hear silversun pickups I think of my "young" adult life. I was insane but you bring me a very nice nostalgic feeling. Keep on doing your thing.
Super nostalgic. They do it the most out of any band for me.
Love this song. It’s like a slow-motion mind melter hitting you with a wave of notes that splashes with emotional moments when it hits. Felt like I experienced an entire movie in that moment and was happy yet sad when it was over.
Great song, great video, great live performance on the Physical Thrills tour.
such a unique song
Still my favorite track
I just CAN'T BELIEVE this band is STILL SO GOOD after all these years.
I always wished they received more attention though
Love,love,love💚
Lyric:
Oh
I need a fresh start now, reboot the machine
Oh
I'm a ghost up in the clouds now, so frightening
Oh
Face down in a fountain, soaking wet
Oh
My body's growing into my silhouette
I can see now you wanted to play
Hurry back, I think they're closing the gate
But I fear it's just a moment too late
Don't know what you're gunning for
Should I hit the deck, fall through the floor?
Don't know what you're thinking of
Do I chip away or keep defenses up?
Don't make a sound if it gets too loud
Will you hear me come around?
Oh
Fade into the sounds that we can't avoid
Oh
I'm addicted to the soundtrack, I need the noise
Are you screaming from the other side?
Believe me, I know what it's like
To lay awake all through the night
Don't know what you're gunning for
Should I hit the deck, fall through the floor?
Don't know what you're thinking of
Do I chip away, or keep defenses up?
Don't make a sound if it gets too loud
Will you hear me come around?
Don't know what you're gunning for
Should I hit the deck, fall through the floor?
Don't know what you're thinking of
Do I chip away, or keep defenses up?
Don't make a sound if it gets too loud
Will you hear me come around?
Don't know what you're gunning for
Should I hit the deck, fall through the floor?
(What you're gunning for)
Don't know what you're thinking of
Do I chip away, or keep defenses up?
(I'll keep defenses up)
Don't make a sound if it gets too loud
Will you hear me come around?
(Gets around, oh, it gets around)
Don't know what you're gunning for
Should I hit the deck, fall through the floor?
(Fall through the floor)
Don't know what you're thinking of
Do I chip away, or keep defenses up?
(I'll keep defenses up)
Don't make a sound if it gets too loud
Will you hear me come around?
(Hear me come around, you hear me come around)
I can see now you wanted to play
Hurry back, I think they're closing the gate
But I fear it's just a moment too late
Keep defences up
This band never ceases to amaze. They are the model of consistency when it comes to creating amazing content with a perfect blend of everything that is awesome music...need more groups like this! Just prefect.

One of my favorite tracks from the album. Great we got a visual for it! 👌
Suena en Radio Doble 9
Lima, Peru!
El mejor rico rico rock del mundooo
Sabes
Hell yeah Peru!
Claro hermano :D
Vine por ello , suena re bien mano
BEST song on the album.
Мне через пару недель 60 и я только три дня назад открыл для себя эту музыку ❤
These guys are the only band in the world that makes real music with sense. They'll have so much "music personality " that i love.
A voice unlike any other. I've lived SSPU since listening in junior high. Don't stop making beautiful music 🖤
I’m not a big rock fan and I heard this by accident strolling thru the channels on xm radio and freaking love it!!!
I think this is my new favorite Silversun Pickups song! The sonic Guitars and Bass sound so good cranked up in the car!
So glad you guys still making music. His voice is so pure. Goosebumps
Silverlake and Sunset = Silversun Pickups, one of the greatest bands ever from LA. ✌
Saw them in L.A. The best live band I ever seen. The energy at the Wiltern was indescribable 💕
Their hometown
OMG!!!! What an amazing sounding song!!!!!!!
Wow, one of the best songs ever
So thankful for SSP, making life more wonderful for so many of us.
Intensely amazingly
They still rock are aren't going anywhere but up. Get used to it..😁
Love the guitar effects on the solo.
Beautiful
Yesss!!!!!!!!!
one of the most consistently great bands i have ever had the pleasure of listening to. Not a single bad record, or even subpar record, in their catalogue . Another great song.
Love you guys can’t wait to see you in St. Louis in April. 2024 VIP.
This whole album reminds me of my holiday in my camper in Cornwall this summer.....had the whole thing for 6 hours there and all the way round. It will always hold a special place in my memories. #SSPU
Amazing Band! Much 💟 1 of a few bands seeing them live... so good
I love this song and this is my favorite album of the year.
First heard them in 2006. Can’t believe I freakin grew up listening to these guys!
Love the new song also they are easily one of the best live bands to see! So glad I got to see them in buffalo this Summer!
Omg I can't go to that concert:((( im SO SAD
I love how hard Chris Guanlao is rocking out on the drums...
I just recently discovered this fantastic band, and I really love your music! Your intelligent lyrics, great melodies and instrumental skills totally ROCK! I am an aspiring bass player, and I am working on getting "Panic Switch" nailed down. I really dig that bass line! Tons of respect for Nikki and her unpretentious but expert bass playing!
Omg absolutely beautiful
'Rusted Wheel' was the first song of yours that blew my doors off. All these amazing ditties later and it's nice to see your songwriting is still spectacular.
God I just love this song and most of the music they put out one of my favorite bands
An absolutely amazing song.
my favorite song of this band... from Brazil
vaguely listened to their hits in the mid 00s without realizing how fucking good they are!!!!
This past year I have rediscovered them and ....holy cow......they are tremendous!
It's a Banger!!!!!
Brilliant. You make it look so natural and easy, but so much going on. Songs you can listen to again and again. 🎶🎶🎶
Fave band. Nothing's tickled me since the 90's like SSP's do. Beautiful.
I've had so much trouble getting into this album, but this is amazing.
As a singer/guitar player/alt songwriter, Brian is still - since like 2009 - my most influential musician.

Holly fuck thats great.
Nothing else needs be said.
One of the best songs from the album. Cant wait to see you guys live again!
Been a fan for so long, but this is easily the best album of 2019, and this song is 🔥️🔥️🔥.
I would say their worst but 3 songs
Love the harmonized guitar lead phrasings.
How damn good is that!
wow really good. What a nice surprise. Great song great video.
This bands music brings me peace as I slowly try to breathe in air due to this stupid Covid 19 virus
Love this song!!!!!!! 🤟🤟🤟 Was love at first heard
Best music video they've made in years. It felt so personal. My favorite band. Ugh, I can't wait 2-4 years for another album lol
This band should be way more popular than what it is. Great song guys!!!
Fan since 2008 love it bought all your CDs at Hastings back in the day !
Love this song!! Regards from Costa Rica
been listening since 2006... great band. One of the very few fine bands that are relatively new... Although they remind me of the 90s, Im glad they started way later and not that particular decade. Otherwise they wouldve probably had a life of 4 years... Please come to Nicaragua, at least just to surf some waves, If Im lucky enough I might just catch you at least on an spontaneous gig or jam.
My favorite song from the album!
Proud to be the 3,000th like on this song.
Love this
Brilliant Track ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
