Fun fact: Nirvana was an opening act at the show where live footage for this came from. They earned a lifetime ban from performing at the University of Washington with their instruments destruction.
This video was rejected by MTV for being "too ugly", honestly I'd call that an awesome achievement. Also good view of Kurt Danielson's sick head banging at 1:16. *two thumbs up*

Tad headlined for Nirvana and Mudhoney in 1989 or maybe 90 on a UK tour. This was the only song of theirs I knew. Awesome concert and Tad stage dived there too, as others have noted he tended to do. Not sure how the floor survived. Great gig and a top night.
I saw this and for a second I thought it was a new song by Tad. They should get back together, they might be able to find their place now that they have more fans from the internet.
I guess... metallic grunge? Melvins, Sound Garden, Alice in Chains, and now Tad here. Never been much of a grunge person, but when it's heavy and metallic, it just works for me.
That's what "grunge" was. Think about the meaning of the word and the sound of what you're listening to here compared to what was on radio at the time. It's like a badass dirty version of 80's guitar rock. The term grunge was blown outta proportion to package things and sell an identity to kids.
Saw Tad, Eleven, and Soundgarden in '94. It was SG's "Superunknown" tour. Tad was awesome. Me and my bud were trippin balls, and he said, "The guy's name is 'Tad', but he's gotta be like 350 lbs..." We laughed and laughed. But the band sounded great.
I was late to the party. I had to catch the Days I tried To Live tour in Germany after I joined the army. But I did get to see Kyuss & Blind Melon open for them
Random but it cracks me up when certain people want to listen to Chris Cornell after he passed away. They want to listen to him when he was covering artists like Prince. Little did they know about the heaviness of these musical artists from these bands like Soundgarden, Temple of the Dog, Mudhoney, Melvins...It was amazing.
so where are all the bootleg videos of tad circa grunge's early years... p.s the guy interviewing you about depression either wanted to make you depressed or wanted to off load some heavy shit your way...
@@se_cfh8715 I’ll check you guys out nonetheless, It’s always nice to discover new music and support a fellow musician. Yeah Tad are awesome. One of my favorite bands this year. Probably my favorite Seattle band full stop.
@@se_cfh8715 They’re a really addictive band! Listened to your EP btw and it’s great. Especially the last two songs. I love the riffs and overall atmosphere of it, amazing. Don’t think it sounds too much like Tad though haha. Still right up my alley anyways!
I love Tad. A tour with Tad and the Melvins would be awesome. Have the Melvins play some songs off of Hoondi or Gluey Porch Treatment. I love Tad and the Melvins. I know that Tad use to tour with Nirvana. I know that Kurt Cobain use to be a roadie for the Melvins. I love Seattle Grunge. Nice, heavy, dirty and dark. Damn Wood Goblins.
@@MsMiguel70 Thank you ,very kind. I'm using translation too, I hope it doesn't suck. I own almost all of Tad's vinils and I have to say that unfortunately they have been underrated as a band. The evening with Nirvana at Bloom in Italy was beautiful. Doyle felt ill and stopped singing. Kurt was very nice, he used himself on stage and continued the show in place of Tad. I can say that that night I attended a Nirvana concert and a half. Ciaoooo
Il tuo commento andava bene. Vorrei avere una traduzione 20 anni fa. Vedremo come si comporta con l'italiano. Lo spettacolo con Tad dev'essere stato grandioso. Uno spettacolo come nessun altro. All'epoca non apprezzavo Tad. Come molti. Ho visto i Nirvana suonare a Dallas, in Texas, nel 91. Kurt ebbe una sanguinosa rissa con un buttafuori e le cose si fecero tese. Ricordo di essere stato contento di indossare stivali con la punta d'acciaio, perché c'erano molti vetri lanciati. Rock n roll : )
First time hearing these guys and I am instantly a fan. Came from the Melvins, stayed for the killer fucking music. The video is pretty fuckin cool man. I fucking love this!!!
How am I not more familiar with Tad? They have such a great crossover sound. I'll be digging more into this band. I feel like a sorry excuse for a Gen-Xer right now!
The guy from Tenacious D saying "I f#@+ing love this band, this is is the best band in the world, period. TAD!" Mind blown "sorry" -JB long live the Kyle Gas project. Now go earn ten dollars with your rock. Ask for the Bob Marley extra crispy, he'll now what your talking about. In search of sasquatch is on!
In the book EVERYBODY LOVES OUR TOWN , Kurt Danielson of Tad, said he heard that MTV wouldn't play there song WOOD GOBLINS because they, Tad, were too ugly.
I sincerely believe grunge needed to continue on and be the biggest version of rock there is
It lasted long enough.

@@sven7308 No it didn't last long enough.
Would love to see a revival but I think these days people would miss the point. It was a sound that made sense at the time.
A tour with TAD and The Melvins would kill the world....if only.

One of my favorites.

Tad Doyle has a new project, Brothers of the Sonic Cloth
I love how each EP/album had different, but goated sound engineers
I love Tad. This song is badass.

Don't waste beer.
This song makes me want to start a gillete deodorant commercial oh wait

kurt danielson is a beast on the bass
I needed this in my life!!
So underrated
That bass is timeless
Grande Tad un uomo che sa fare autoironia oltre che musica.
Nothing that I could possibly say to describe how awesome this band was/is!
Never heard them before, looked em up because someone mentioned my band reminds them of them. Not disappointed
What’s your band? If it sounds anything remotely like this I’m sold.
@@overdrive6687 Ghozer, and honest I don't think we sound like TAD at all but I'm glad someone else did or I'd never have found TAD

What a good song,great bass great tone great feel tad is an awesome band🤟
Man Tad Doyle is so cool.
Saw Tad and Nirvana at a show together back in 1989. Tad were the better band on the night.
Plaid is Rad, Thanks Tad!
I’m just now discovering this band. Kicks ass! I’ve loved grunge for years now idk how I haven’t listened to this band until now.
Because you were molested by yourself.
Yes! This is awesome! TAD!!

I am so fucking pumped. I am buying all of these...
The budget for this video was $40, and $30 of that was spent on beer.
Cheers to this great comment 🍻🍻
sound so cool
That's so amazing dude
I saw tad at the sub pop anniversary show pier theater Seattle crushed it 🤘🏻
It's so sludgy
I need an acid bath.
I've spent long weeks in the ol' polypropylene drum. The smell of Hydrochloric Acid doing it's job on my Sludge is so nostalgic.
@Herb White wait this is sludge metal
Please tell me thats a play on the sludge metal band Acid Bath.
TAD RULES
The quintessential 90s Grunge song!
Saw them twice way back, so amazing live!
Another beautiful video I love the art!
Nobody rocked harder than Tad.
What about Justin Bieber or Taylor Swift. Everybody is fainting over them. Even though they are vomit.
When punk rock was at its best 89-97, when the weirdos ruled
Saw Tad at a couple of Thrash shows in the Bay Area and they kicked ass. . .
skok58 do you remember who they were playing with?
Awesome,seen tad and the fluid at the Riverside Newcastle upon tyne
TAD in HD!
Beers covered in cold pine needles and gas in the fire: 90's Northwest nostalgia.
Heaviest Seattle band
Legends. ^_^
Best stagediving ever, in this video!
One of the best bands out of Seattle.
this is a quality video& song. so strange only TAD warns us of the malavolent wood goblin.
Lost and forgotten 💔 important grunge Era band.
TAD, what a rad band, I think they got a unique style by it self.
I totally see why Kurt loved these guys and why MTV hated them.
Can't wait for Plague Years music video in proper quality
This video is the most Seattle thing ever.
Great, sounds as relevant now

Sonic terror assault on my senses. LOVE this song! Best turned up LOUD
My brothers and former friends all suck for not liking this type of rock music.
Definition of what Grunge was supposed to mean.....Muddy, wet and Heavy
First time hearing these guys and I am instantly a fan. Came from the Melvins, stayed for the killer fucking music. The video is pretty fuckin cool man. I fucking love this!!!
Love then GRUNGE Forever!
I listened for the first time in 1.25 speed by accident. I had to come back to see if it were as good in normal speed. Turns out I loved both.
This is like, the spiritual father of the Red Fang videos!

RIP Steve Albini

even better: when they toured for it with Nirvana in Europe, the tour was dubbed "Bleach God's Balls" by some folks 😂😂
Seriously amazingly heavy. This video is fucking brilliant.
