Fun Fact: in "Keyboard", the van goes in circles. So, the centrifugal force being applied to the excrement is keeping it from falling on the floorboard. So technically the driver is playing the keys for this song.
"So.. did you know I studied music? Drums, Piano and Saxophone to be precise..." "Oh that's awesome! Can I hear some of your music?" "I meant economics.. I studied economics..."
Haha, now that you mention it...I just realized how much this sounds like Eric Andrés album "Cease And Desist" (or the other way around). And that guy went to Berkley. :P
I have been sharing this with people anytime they ask what kind of music I am into and the reactions I have so far received have been all over the place and hilarious. You are a bad Samaritan if you refuse to expose others to this gift.
Yeah... Louis Cole actually has a nice tutorial on his channel about some beats, I don't remember if any of the beats on this album are on there, but all his stuff is amazing
"computers" might be one of the greatest songs ever recorded tbh. When the sax solo happens you realize how talented these two are and how actually amazing this is.
a bunch of rhythmic electronic power noise and incomprehensible screaming and then really sick sax solos, and all with some pretty sick tight drums too
Joke or not, the beat at 3:26 absolutely slaps, not to mention the giant climax at 4:55 with some seriously clever percussion and saxophone licks. I'm stunned by how talented these dudes are
Right? Like...I've listened to Earth Amor a half a dozen times already and I only just found these guys tonight. Them drums are absolutely disgusting and dude's only playing a one piece.
I'm sorry but if you love this i don't think you understand it. i'm not trying to be mean but i think i JUST got this and while i still think the music itself is a masterpiece i almost wish i had never heard it or become aware of it in the first place for the understanding it has given me.
idk, I quit being shocked by stuff like this a long time ago. Pretty sure I've just evolved into an unlovable, incomprehensible weirdo since then, but I guess to each their own.
It's pretty strange that literally one of the worlds best saxophone solos ever recorded (4:54) is in one of the worlds most strange albums.. This is Fine Art. Also we are all in an infinite realm of incomprehensible suffering.
Still can't get over 4:55 .. right hand synth, left hand melody + snare , hi hat + bass drum ..all at the same time.. jesus Luis.. That is just impressive
Clownc0re's lack of fucks given about their own tremendous talent is the ultimate flex. They don't ask for personal recognition for this spectacular content

When the "earth" played, it felt like taking a shit down someone's cut throat, but when "end" played it felt like something forgotten and precious greets you from the past. These guys are gods.
@@TheNefastor i think he's annoyed because they're not putting this talent into normal type of music (i'm not implying that clownc0re is bad, i like it), and i'm not talking about KNOWER, like, jazz tracks as in "computers"
I can't stop listening to this. It's genius. Easily the most mind-blowing music I've heard in years. It's catchy, it's technical, it's off-the-wall and it's mesmerizing.
17:04 the exact amount of time it takes for my Washing machine to reach the rinse cycle. Thanks Clown Core, now I know when to add the fabric of time softener.
This album sets you up for so many emotional backstabs, and does it amazingly good. It left me not knowing what to feel, should i laugh, should i cry? Why is this happy saxophone solo making me so sad? So many questions asked, an not an actual word spoken though out the entire album
Someone else said somewhere that the sadness they feel there is their nostalgia of people they knew, times they lived and things they can't get back to. maybe that's it for you?
The bleak hollowness that is my soul has finally found substance that now resonates throughout my very being. I love you guys come here and lemme give you a great big backwards hug
To anyone who's come into this as confused as I was/still am, start at 3:55 and just try to make it all the way to the 6:00 mark. That's what sold me. These are very clearly very skilled musicians and this ironic avante garde bullshit is right up my alley. Respect
googling these guys after hearing the song "the end" during a random persons stream, and stumbling into all of *this* was one of the most pleasant things to happen this year.
These guys are such musical geniuses you literally can't put them in any genre and the are the only band I know of that's also considered "clowncore" absolutely unique
Only after listening to the album in full was I able to realise how exceptional Sam Gendel is on saxophone. There's at least 3 completely different styles of playing here, and his use of flutter tongue is on point too. It's a shame he doesn't receive that much "screen time" in Louis Cole's projects, but I'm biased: I'm a saxophonist myself.
Especially after experiencing reading the words on slow speed with the distorted sound, this is the most out there insane shit ive ever heard and i appreciate every note and word of it
This music is so amazingly insane, I keep coming back to this album from time to time, and it's just, perfect. Wish I had someone among my friends that could actually appreciate it because it's a misunderstood masterpiece.
A friend I took music with in school came back with "They are so talented I could watch this for hours" and I have to agree, I keep coming back to it and instead of losing anything I keep finding new things to appreciate. It's a weird one but it's definitely a masterpiece.
I sent this to Shia Labeouf. He responded that he went back in time to form this band with Jesus, practiced in limbo for two thousand years, and then reintegrated with the timeline to make this. I am proud to know Shia Labeouf. He knows a thing.

This album is pure bliss, keyboard is straight fire. Also that sax solo in Computers, god damn.
If I can hype this drummer's versatility for my fellow drum nerds, this guy, armed with just a single kick, snare, hihat, and bell, plays:
--A djenty kick pattern that will probably be stolen by a teenage metalcore band ("earth")
--A paradiddle blast beat that is so fast I thought the recording was sped up ("van")
--A groovy, "jump the f*** up" part ("song")
--Some of the fastest, cleanest double-stroke ghost notes known to mankind ("computers")
--A swingy, Latin-tinged dance beat ("you are pregnant")
--My favorite, a skank beat variation with a displaced gallop on the bell ("existence")
--Some nasty fills with expert coordination between his snare hand and kick foot (throughout)
Plus, he does much of this while also stomping on his hihat pedal hard enough to make the stand shake AND using his free hand to play keyboard bass parts in lockstep with the kick drum, AND ALSO throwing in some screams and horn honks.
At least he has some nice, solid feces to take over on keyboards sometimes ("keyboard").
I thought they were potatoes 😂
I think I like the horn honks outta all of that.
I hope you learned that he is Louis Cole.

i love how recognisable louis cole is, that you just know the drummer is him
A fucking monster!
Damn straight. Pretty sure the sax is the dude from Knower's Overtime video
Allegedly...
Shhhh!!! it s but lets pretend for their sake its not!!! its a mystery drummer who tf are they
There’s no way around it. Nobody can mistake this sound for anybody else other than Louis Cole.
When the "earth" played, it felt like taking a shit down someone's cut throat, but when "end" played it felt like something forgotten and precious greets you from the past. These guys are gods.
when "keyboard" played, it felt like taking a shit on a keyboard
Finally! some good ole' Christian music to praise the lord to.
good for xmas caroling especially! th-cam.com/video/TiFqTkI7fU4/w-d-xo.html
😂
I know right!
PAIN
Oh you Christians, always trying to claim anything good and give your god all the credit. They are most clearly influenced by Plutonian theology.
These 17 minutes were the longest 17 minutes in my life.... and I loved every second of it
The most bizzare 17 minutes in my life 😁
Louis Cole and Sam Gendell from The Knower. These guys are absolute beasts on their respective (multiple) instruments
Power violence meets cyber death metal meets smooth jazz meets speedcore meets avant-garde jazz meets carnival music
Forgot Bigbeat meets digital hardcore then grindcore and phonk
UPD.Forgot to add Chillhop on Infinite Realm...😊
Doesn't meet any of that shit
The driver looks so happy.
he's the master of the seven Cs
He looks uncomfortable to me
Of course he's happy, he's getting an exclusive live show from Clown Core!
He's tripping balls
I hadn't noticed him smiling at 11:20 ge does indeed look happy. 😃
I think the most annoying part about these guys, is how unbelievably talented they are at music lol
It's not annoying, it's awesome.
@@TheNefastor i think he's annoyed because they're not putting this talent into normal type of music (i'm not implying that clownc0re is bad, i like it), and i'm not talking about KNOWER, like, jazz tracks as in "computers"
they are grammy lvl muysician, its louis cole from knower with his friend sam gendel a well know jazz saxophonist.
@@CamelliaFlingertKNOWER isn't even on the same level as clowncore
@@canaconn2388 lol who gonna tell 'em
End is lowkey on of the most beautiful songs created
Someone please put this on a golden record and send it into space with a film reel of this video ASAP
that will make sure no aliens will ever visit us xD
Philip... Ever see killer clowns from outer space?
@@erikhermansen3431 my exact thoughts while listening to this
Morse code at 13:48 is "02172023" -and i have no idea what happened on that day- which is the date which they started touring on
This was a weird episode of the Bangbus.
Bang the drums?
The Uber guy: hey I'm your Uber
Clown core: yeah I'm downstairs in a minute, just grab my stuff
these comments😂
Uber: any special requirements? These guys: he's got to wear a mask. Uber: all our drivers wear masks. These guys: a clown mask.
i heard so much in 17 minutes, i feel like this has all my music tastes together.
I can't stop listening to this. It's genius. Easily the most mind-blowing music I've heard in years. It's catchy, it's technical, it's off-the-wall and it's mesmerizing.
17:04 the exact amount of time it takes for my Washing machine to reach the rinse cycle. Thanks Clown Core, now I know when to add the fabric of time softener.
The profound message these interstellar travelers send is wunderbar
I would give two month's pay to see Louis Cole take a shit on a keyboard at the Grammy's, but only if no one was expecting it to happen.
I'm shocked by 4:54. Two keyboards + snare + hit-hat + bass drum? It's just nuts! The level of this guy is out of mind!!!!!!
yeah but dude, during that, 5:16 is the best shot of the whole video...
On par with Neil Peart or Lars Ulrich
@@beantown_billy2405 lars is ass
You forgot the honky horn!
fun fact, they are pop artist / jazz, its louis cole from knower with sam gendel.
I wish I had this album when I was a teenager. That shit woulda hit me so damn hard.
This album sets you up for so many emotional backstabs, and does it amazingly good. It left me not knowing what to feel, should i laugh, should i cry? Why is this happy saxophone solo making me so sad? So many questions asked, an not an actual word spoken though out the entire album
Someone else said somewhere that the sadness they feel there is their nostalgia of people they knew, times they lived and things they can't get back to. maybe that's it for you?
Yeah
Dude I want the same pills you took !!!
@@MariachiFromHell Its crack. Just regular crack
Silly, they clearly said "I'd like to die in a submarine accident"
The bleak hollowness that is my soul has finally found substance that now resonates throughout my very being. I love you guys come here and lemme give you a great big backwards hug
this is hands down an audio/visual masterpiece 🤡
To anyone who's come into this as confused as I was/still am, start at 3:55 and just try to make it all the way to the 6:00 mark. That's what sold me. These are very clearly very skilled musicians and this ironic avante garde bullshit is right up my alley. Respect
No. Start from beginning 0:00 and got to the end 🤣
why would you start and end there?
@@MangasColoradas941 lmao right? I listen to this album from start to finish
@@MangasColoradas941 that's where the lightweights should start I reckon
The incredibly tight percussion from Earth sold me. These are top tier musicians that give 0 fucks and I love it
I'm glad I live in a time where technology has progressed to a point that this is able to exist. Fuck Bitcoin, this is the future of commerce.
the phrasing and chord progression at the end of "End" sounds like something written centuries ago. Love it.
That horn at 2:58 was the saddest I've ever heard and my heart is dying for it
3:15 should cheer you right up! :]
googling these guys after hearing the song "the end" during a random persons stream, and stumbling into all of *this* was one of the most pleasant things to happen this year.
I'm sorry, what stream was it?
Even without all the gimmicks and visuals this album is the bee's!
Unironically fuggin slaps
I see no gimmicks - just two fellas musically telling everyone who thinks they're talented to fuck themselves
"Tears of God" is STUNNING.
The visuals with it are soooo good, too.
They nailed that one
It has a 1980s public TV vibe for some reason. Like it would be a transitionary sting
love how end is a blue screen of death. really hits hard.
About 30 seconds into it it becoame obvious that these guys are phenomenal musicians. This is clever - and overflowing with serious musical chops.
You want a cookie?
These guys are such musical geniuses you literally can't put them in any genre and the are the only band I know of that's also considered "clowncore" absolutely unique
5:15 is the best part of the album, hands down.
that driver is thinking "why does no-one believe me when i tell them about the things i see while driving?"
Only after listening to the album in full was I able to realise how exceptional Sam Gendel is on saxophone. There's at least 3 completely different styles of playing here, and his use of flutter tongue is on point too. It's a shame he doesn't receive that much "screen time" in
Louis Cole's projects, but I'm biased: I'm a saxophonist myself.
That fella is a powerhouse! Everything he's released in the last four or five years has been fantastic
He’s traded screen time for scream time.
I am a sexophonist myself
Ca veut dire i play sex
With myself
Especially after experiencing reading the words on slow speed with the distorted sound, this is the most out there insane shit ive ever heard and i appreciate every note and word of it
i want to get high as all hell and have a panic attack to this
I wanna drop like 7 tabs and go ride a bike down my street in boxer briefs to this.
@@Dr_Monitor Hill bomb in combat boots and booty shorts on like a strip and a half of jellies.
sounds not fun but I bet it’s 100% worth it xD
fucking did it, I'm a changed man
being high made it fun.
This music is so amazingly insane, I keep coming back to this album from time to time, and it's just, perfect. Wish I had someone among my friends that could actually appreciate it because it's a misunderstood masterpiece.
"I NEED TO SHOW THIS TO SOMEONE"
*[proceeds to have nobody to show it to]*
This isn't misunderstood, it's just not popular music.. lots of influence from music people don't typically listen to
We're here for you, fellow clowncore enjoyer.
The sax solo in Computers is so beautiful. I just love it so much.
7:54 Mr Hankey's solo is sick.
Damnit lmao
I just came across this, loved it and wanted to show friends, they are yet to respond.
A friend I took music with in school came back with "They are so talented I could watch this for hours" and I have to agree, I keep coming back to it and instead of losing anything I keep finding new things to appreciate. It's a weird one but it's definitely a masterpiece.
I just sent this to a buddy I talk to daily. It's been 10 minutes and he hasn't responded yet. This isn't like him.
I sent it to my brother and he ate my mom
I sent this to Shia Labeouf. He responded that he went back in time to form this band with Jesus, practiced in limbo for two thousand years, and then reintegrated with the timeline to make this. I am proud to know Shia Labeouf. He knows a thing.
yeah same 🙄
what an amazing blend of everything especially the saxaphone ballad during "computers", it totally turned me on. SaxCore is hawt.
Clown COre should get a Grammy Award for this.
Watching at 25% speed to try and catch all the flashed frames is the intended listening experience.
The carrot keys on keyboard allow you to advance a video frame by frame, fyi.
@@ATSaale i'm pretty sure that should be "caret"
but i like carrots too
Brendan Fraser and McDonalds, and the occasional weather manipulation theory
I got'chu, boss.
I've done my best to identify/describe what's shown in each frame.

#2 A typical Radio Tower
#3 ICBM (most likely), laying horizontally and presumably on display at an outdoor museum

#14 Fatass (srsly) Pigeons eating a whole-pizza laying on the street
#15 Something being viewed under a microscope (everything was purple)
Deer lying in a field (dead in a ditch? was unable to pause directly on its frame) [This was before I discovered you can use , and . to step individual frames lol]
#16 Toilet (commode)
#17 Huge open-wound (from a flesh eating bacteria?) on someone's leg, having its gauze removed/replaced
#18 Nasty cut on someone's thumb that is rotting (looks gangrenous, but the thumb tip is still healthy, so I dunno)
#19 Scurry monster at night, filmed in night-vision* mode on a camera (*using IR lighting, not real night-vis)
#20 One of the original "creepy pasta" characters; "The Rake"
#21 A corndog

#25 A fiery mushroom cloud from declassified military foottage
#26 Little puppy (husky?) in mid-stride, running across a yard
#27 Very small resolution image from CCTV camera of a man standing next to a locked, 8ft tall chainlink fence gate (two gates locked together)
#28 Two people in PAP Hazmat Suits, helping each other with dispensing of something into a plastic bag; the one facing away from us has asian writing on the back of his suit.
#29 The Great Pyramids of Giza (and 3 of the smaller nearby ones)
#30 Image of Petra
#31 Ruins of an ancient settlement (pueblo indians, aztec, something in that area?)
#32 Lost City of Atlantis (land-locked version with , not an island)
#33 @13:12 An... orbital image of Martian landscape?
#34 @13:12 Similar but...??
#35 Something burning up in Earth's atmosphere, or, a massive comet with an equally massive tail; viewed from the ground, photo taken by an observer
#36 Picture (rendered?) of somewhere on Earth, near the ocean. (perhaps one of the locations proposed for landlocked Atlantis)
#37 Aerial photo of, presumably, receding snow cover in Iceland (Greendland? Whatever it's fucking called these days)
#38 Either a huge flood, or more likely, aftermath of a Tsunami
#39 McDonalds in a heavily flooded town
#40 Husky puppy running down a path in a grassy field
#50 The simulated results of what viewing a black hole/singularity would look like. (probably the research done for the movie Interstellar)
#51 A triangular UFO (with 4 lights; corners and one center) hovering close and almost overhead of the camera; likely from one #52 of those UFO Mystery shows.
#53 Cloudless day with a faint 'ring' shape in the sky, but with the sun shining from the opposite direction; potentially reflected sunlight off of ice crystals
#54 Photo of a much younger Brendan Fraser (around the time of the movie Encino Man)

#57 Astronomy photo, titled "OGLE-2014-SN-131"
#58 [potato-quality makes describing difficult] A greenish-yellow and blue colored ghostly apparition, with a skeletal-like upper torso (sans arms); background is indiscernible
#59 Some old dude of high religious rank. Pope? Cardinal? Bishop?
#60 A hard-shell taco. (beef, lettuce, diced tomato, sour cream)
#61 Footage of a missile launch; plausible the same type as entry #3, based on its color
#62 Either an image from the Martian surface of rocks and dirt, or, possible image of bone fragments in a cave (or underwater, but water clarity is superb if so)
#63 Rendering of the Cosmic Web
#64 Tough call: Either a novelty Plasma Globe, or, a medical scan of someone (brain?) who had been injected with imaging contrast ('dye')
#65 Photo of a cooked chicken leg (drumstick); my guess is it's _not_ from KFC
#66 Photo, taken by the N.E.A.R. space probe, of an Asteroid; "253 Mathilde", specifically
#67 Photo of the Giant Blue Marble, aka Earth
@@timh.7169 spittin FAX.
1:38 to 1:53 the sax solo there and the drum grove with the mini ride on his snare is probably the coolest thing I’ve ever heard. I just keep rewinding that sequence over and over… 😮
Kinda love how traumatized the driver looks throughout the entire album.
*gets years of therapy*
How did you read trauma through his balaclava?
Mr Hankey's skill with the keyboards was unexpected.
that submarine accident line hitting now
I'm legit angry at myself for never listening to this before now. It's absolutely fucking wicked.
I had been putting it off for ages 'cause I'd just, stupidly, assumed it was just some generic meme band...
@@theapplekingdom5493 And now you've an appetite that can never be sated by anything else. Louis' other band (Knower) is fucking awesome too.
Just look up The Government Knows and you'll see.
@@xenogorwraithblade2538 Don't worry, I've looked into Knower too. Still goes hard as fuck, but there's just something about Clownc0re that really does it for me. It's definitely not a sound you come across often so no, not easily sated, but I'm just glad I know about them, lol.
I highly recommend this. These are the only clowns that make me smile when I’m feeling sad or fucken furious.
Tears of god hits a lot of different nostalgic buttons for me.
The "infinite realm of incomprehensible suffering" is the perfect hold music!
