3:48 He gives the signal to play harder and the drummer is thrilled af
Shoun is a MACHINE
dont get me wrong, i love any incarnation of the Oh Sees. but man do i wish i couldve seen dwyer with bridget, petey and mike. their chemistry is fucking incredible
Maybe because it actually looks like a true band, not only like John's project?
Although I LOVE for instance the last incarnation of the Oh Sees, just like you.
I think the newest lineup is building that chemistry
I was thinking the exact ssme thing. There was something about this particular group of friends⚡
It was the best
I saw them the past weekend, at the last date of their EU tour, for the 2nd time. I even got to chat to the band after the show, they're all top blokes, and i have to say, they're super tight sounding nowadays! Very different material at times but 100% OSEES nonetheless!
Way too underrated. Thee Oh Sees are the most influencial band of the 2010s hands down. No Oh Sees means no Ty Segall, Fidlar, King Gizzard, Growlers, Wytches, ect. people need to start recognizing how important this band is
indeed! he created OCS in 1996!!
Dick Hardy I doubt that
King Gizz have already said Thee Oh Sees are their favorite band, and I can't help but wonder how far Ty would get if John wouldn't have pressed his first record on Castleface.
This is very true, I think it is cool that Thee Oh Sees are now getting a lot more recognition because of the amount of current bands citing them as an influence. I was turned on to Thee Oh Sees by King Gizzard as I think a lot of people were and if more bands who take inspiration from Thee Oh Sees start to get as popular as King Gizz then Thee Oh Sees will be recognised as the hugely influential band they are. Kinda same thing how Black Flag gained a lot of respect after Nirvana, Red Hot Chili Peppers and pretty much every other good band from the 90's were referencing them
This band is important. Indeed they are!
Saying these guys are underrated would be an understatement.
The fact that they aren't headlining festivals is mind-boggling. Then again, that keeps ticket prices affordable.
pretty pathetich with playback on a festival
@@emmdeee i thought that was a synth
@@emmdeee . Wait are you implying some of this was prerecorded?
that understatement is underrated
There's a band who gives it its fucking all
whilst not giving a fuck too! genius.
How did it take until 2023 for me to hear about this band? Best band ever?
So underrated
Your part in this song is very, very much appreciated, Brigid.
Her and Dwyer have such incredible chemistry. Infact, this whole lineup worked perfectly!!
Drummer Requirements: Ability to run a marathon in 5 minutes with just your arms
after a long night of drugs and booze
ANDDDDD NOWWWW TWO DRUMMERS ARE IN THE GROUP
All their drummers are like super stressed when playing, their faces are like "OMG I'M GONNA SCREW THIS I NEED TO FOCUS OMG OMG". It's like he's feeding them the same drugs
Mike Shoun is a MACHINE
Minotaur is probably the easiest song they’ll ever do 😂
the hardest working rock band of this generation..
One of the greatest, most original, and most fun bands ever! They always kill it live!
Eric Kolkey original is a bit much but yes
the guitarist used playback what do u mean original
@@emmdeee ?
@@emmdeee have you ever heard this thing called "digitech whammy"?
They're so high, those red faces bring joy to my heart
It was 95 degrees outside during this show you dork
@@mws7615 these red faces still bring joy to my dork heart
I remember first listening to "the coconut" after downloading a bunch of random music on to my sony xperia t as a 13 or 14 year old. A year or 2 later gta 5 came out and I thought it was crazy to see "the dream" on the in game radio as it was one of my favourite songs and none of my best friends who were avid gamers like me could understand my enthusiasm for it. Thee Oh Sees are absolutely fantastic and it's crazy to notice how much they have inspired other bands even John Dwyers' Zippy Delay style of playing guitar has been imitated by certain current guitarists. I just remember putting on those headphones and having my face melted , it was such a contrast to everything else I was listening to at the time like the strokes or RHCP and the punk energy the bands recordings have follow them all onto the stage with every incarnation of thee oh sees which is something a lot of bands simply just don't have.
Anyway I LOVE thee oh sees!! Also I miss the walkman app on my old crappy phone.
This lineup is awesome and it bums me out I never got to see them, living in the Bay 2008-09 and 2012-2015. I worried that I blew it and missed something I can never get back. Then I watched a recent performance of the new lineup performing "Ticklish Warrior," and I smile because I've seen the new lineup seven times in the last year and a half and they are still the best live act on stage. Sadly, this lineup will never reunite because, like Seinfeld, they had their moment and now its over. They enjoyed the shit out of themselves when it was happening. They went for it together and they were so fucking good. They left some of my most cherished music in their wake.
Thank God for THEE OH SEES.
They rock even harder now, just in a different way
Never got to see this lineup, but I saw the new lineup end with this song last month and it was the most rock and roll thing I've ever experience by a longshot. Nobody rocks harder than Thee Oh Sees.
Petey Dammit's guitar tone is incredible
Malcolm in the middle :where are they now; Dewey played bass for thee oh sees
If you're young and don't get rowdy at their shows you're way too uptight and if you're old and get rowdy at their shows you're a badass
Can't wait to see them for the first time next month!
im not uptight im just very self conscious 😞 until i get a couple beers in me
@@hammies. I get that 100% however let me reassure you, no one is judging anyone at an oh sees concert for getting rowdy no matter how you look doing it
@@hammies. have always been anxious to get in a pit or something like that, but when I saw ohsees in November 2021 I finally did it and it was the most fun I’d had since covid started, if you ever get the chance to see them, 100% do it, tbh more people would judge you for just being stood their looking unimpressed hahaha
that dude is playing the bass parts on a regular guitar. Amazing.
I miss Brigid
so do I
I miss petey!
I miss mike
When this song plays on my phone I can't help but break down into a seizure. It's just too awesome
This was in Union Park, Chicago on July 15, 2012 and it was 90 degrees in the shade when they were jamming this hard! 🥵
Surfs up all the time here. Love this band
this music could go on forever
this guy is so funny lol he gets me everytime the band chemistry is amazing
I have not seen a band this good since At the Drive-In....pure creative explosion. And Brigid Dawson is the coolest chick on this planet. She should get the Kim Deal award or something.
As awarded by Courtney Taylor-Taylor?
Thee Oh Sees > everything else.
such a great band. super underrated. ive seen them countless times. literally nonstop energy.
CAN!!!!
this guy gets it
every member is so talented
john is of course killing it, but the drums keeps my head bobbing, the bass hits so hard and the keyboard was really piecing everything together amazinh
the drummer looks like he's trying to hold together an intense trip.
Probably, dwyer said the drummer on that time did a lot of drugs
I keep coming back to this clip and just f'n loving it... so excellent.
The energy this band can stir inside me is incredible. The best.
this is still my favorite fucking live performance of all time
Man. Jazzmaster guitars are so good they can even be a bass!
That look in her eyes haha
This is awesome....sounds a bit like B-52s in the best way. Great!
no
The two people that commented “no” are clueless. I hear some Devo too
seeing these in 2 weeks at leeds & cant wait,but would love this line up,what a band.
Contraption every night
Paint out the lights
It stops all the feel ups
That go under the tables
Is that what they say?
And I am destination
The jewel of a song
A well cut appetite
A spread that has been wasted
That's all they say
So, pull your nets right in
Find a couch or table
And recreate the zero,
You suspect you are
Yup, that's what they say
You forgot "ahahahahahahahahahahahah-ahahahah
Soooo badass. I want to see them so bad
Would love to have seen this line up,took my youngest son to see em when he was about 12,absolutely loved em.
You're a good dad.
@@UncleAnaesthesia cheers mate 👍👍
Really need to see this band,class.
Petey Dammit loving life
seen this band 3 times in a small bar setting and people were crowd surfing. definitely one of the best bands i've ever seen live.
woah first time listening this band and this motherfuckers know how to fucking rock
awesome they have it !!!!!!!!!
You know the band is good when a live recording on youtube sounds better than the studio album
the best all time Oh Sees band ever!
Just saw them in a small and dark basement last night. You sir are absolutely spot on.
We gotta get the Rona under control so we can get back to shows like this
Excellent live. Seen them twice will see them again for sure
The rhythm guitarist plays bass through his rhythm guitar - goes into a clever box which changes the sound. It's so he can play faster bass lines.
This band made me realize you don't have to be some virtuoso at playing, if you want to rock, just rock 🤘
Actually there's some serious shit going on, so I wouldn't be so sure about it being simple
@@sofiiamarusyn not really, it's just a pentatonic scale over and over again. it's so genius because it's simple.
@@heckicusdoomicuswizardus1382 theres more wrong pentatonic in the world than there is right
@@heckicusdoomicuswizardus1382John Dwyer plays fast and melodically. That on its own is good, but he is extremely tasteful when it come to his playing. Knowing how to keep things energetic and insanely catchy is a skill not many pentatonic abusers have.
That drummer is tripping harder than the Doors did
I still don't know how they got anything to fit (i was the one who filmed it)...that show was unbelievable!
Marc Maron had John Dwyer on his podcast. It's must-listen
They only should record live albuns!!! They kick asses out of the atmosphere!!!!!!
its coming July 1st
anyone else notice he ate his guitar pick at 5:30
awesome and funny-well-vibrated as allways. ;D
J'apprécie la fondation de ce groupe de ce moment là., comme pour ACDC ,quand il y avait Bin Scott,ensuite je ne les ai plus écouter.sans la voie de Bon Scott ça n'avait plus ? 🤷♀️💐💐💐🙋🦉
This is how we do it Gen X style.
YEEAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!
as far as I've seen petey uses a normal tuned fender jazzmaster through an EQ Pedal into a bass amp and john tunes his guitar down one full step maybe for easier bends on his burns double six.
best formation ever
Mish...insanely good.
I think there's a video of them playing at SFSU. It was a tiny room way beyond capacity.
Do a search for "Thee Oh Sees Go To College," it's a real monster of a show
amazing.
This group is so charged
More please.
YASSSSSSS!!!!!!!
"In terms of differently abled, they musta turned out the lights, and called Sonic Phillips, and gone under the table." - SF scene in one line
mola
I wonder what shoes John Dwyer is wearing at 0:43.
I really want those ones.
Buzzed hair guitarist going fucking H.A.M.
they doooo!
Come back petey!
Ben al een oude man maar vind dit super goed
You are correct on that one.
i love drugs
drugs love u more
Who is the guy who is playing the second guitar as a bass?? He´s crazy!
Petey Dammit!
CABULOSO......BRASIL
Does anybody know where I can find the whole performance?
i just noticed the crowd guard with red glasses and can't stop looking at him.
Bloody bonkers
never hide thy shred in the dark
JROCK from TPB on bass
the black cat in DC is a perfect venue for them to play.
Thr skinhead man is playing the bass with a guitar
I think it's a fender bass 6, which is technically a bass and a guitar
@@Noel11897 It looks to me like a Fender Jazzmaster Guitar. The body shape, the humbucker, the bridge, the switches, the short scaled neck...
@@antondillet466 It's a jazzmaster but those are single coils not humbuckers and theres no such thing as a shortscale jazzmaster
@@Noel11897 it's obviously a Jazzmaster
@@smoshbooz Google fender bass VI then
I can imagine things getting pretty crazy in a smaller, darker venue.
Petey Dammit
looks like he should be in an OI band lol
recreate the zero
that you suspect you are
i've asked him numerous times. it's not an octave pedal, i think it has to do with the pickups and/or the wiring of the guitar
This song makes me think of the waving cowboy sign in las Vegas every time I hear it... why
Hey,check out these guys!!! Empathy Soul Project - Divine!!!!
Can someone explain to me why they aren’t in the rock n roll hall of fame already
he takes it out again like 2 seconds later haha
Does anyone know the lyrics at the very end?
rest of the set? :(
Where is the bass player?
Petey Damnit! He is using a Jazzmaster and running it through a bass amp.
More like "Constipation" (look at the drummer's face)
4:40 that solo rips
i'm going to explode.
contraption every night, paint out the lights, it stops all the feel ups, that go under the tables, ahah.. is that what they say? and i am destination, the jewel of a song, a well cut appetite, a spread that has been wasted, ah ah ...that's all they say, so, pull your nets right in, find a couch or table, and recreate the zero, you suspect you are ah ah...yup, that's what they say.......
