Oh to have the eloquence, humour, musical knowledge and talent of Justin Hawkins. Legend.
@@rubberchix whatever the hell that means! J Hawk is what we say in the States....GIFTED. I've learned more about my guitar playing just in the 4 months that I've subscribed. Always heard the stuff in my head...he shows me why
Ha yeah, I admit he's really nice
AMEN. I second that, Steve, and i hope Justin sees this for his own eyes: Justin, Ive only recently discovered your youtube channel, which i really regret- ive obviously been missing out on loads of intellectual stimulation, education, lots of fun, and genuine laughter. I love you Justin! Youre handsome, cute, quirky, briliant, classy, witty, and soooo much more! You have a new fan in me for life! Rock on 4 ever! Xoxox❤
Thank you so much for sharing these bands with us. It helps me not make the mistake of buying their music.
Exactly what I was thinking.
Abysmal! :0(
Exactly
Disturbed is the only one on the list that I have any interest in.
I love how Justin’s cheesy DJ started to sound like Matt Berry. Toast of TH-cam!
Oh... now I can hear it!
Best!
Yes I can hear you, Clem Fandango.
@@GraemeRoberts Wherrrrre else could you see Bon JoVEE, Lady GaGAAAH and The Coldplay under one rrrroof?
Demi Lovato…I can’t. It hurts my ears, the scream/screeching. Interpol are amazing and so happy they’re cutting through the crap. Beautiful song.
I believe we are all part of this problem. We love music, but we complain about the cost of albums, concert tickets and merchandise. We sign up and gorge on the all-you-can-eat musical buffets such as Spotify and stop purchasing songs and albums. There has been article after article explaining that artists don't make squat from the Spotify model, but we just listen along anyway. We love the music and agree artists should be held in higher regard and compensated appropriately, but we are not willing to reject the music business models that leave artists emaciated. If we don't like what's happening, we need to recognize our part in the problem.
Justin, thanks once again for another outstanding episode.
Hey Justin, I pretty much watch you every day and always enjoy your channel. I'm in Australia, where they're turning the screws on the cost of everyday living. I'd love to sling you a few bucks but for the moment, just wanted to thank you for the 15 or so minutes of escape, education and laughs you provide. All the best.
It’s not just in Oz. I’m paying almost $5/gallon for petrol, but it’s been over $6 at times. 😢
Love to hear your take on things, learning more about the intricacies of songs 😁
Justin, long time professional vocalist & vocal nerd here. I adore your channel and your vocals & guitar playing. I watch and feel as if I'm sitting, as I've done countless times, in a rehersal room during break shooting the sh*t with a dear & talented friend. So thank you! I have a request....would you consider offering up your opinion on british vocalist Nikki Wells? Specifically, if I may, her song "Sunset" done live at Glastonbury? I've never heard a non-Indian singer do such a legit job singing Indian vocals. Phrasing & scales. She floors me & I'd be thrilled to hear your take on her. Thanks for having this channel!
Thanks dude for the awesome videos , it’s a really awesome channel !!! Please take all the money I have donated to the channel and please go buy a guitar stand for your Gibson !!! ….. I alway cringe every time you just set it down leaning 🤘🏻🤣🤘🏻
Have to admit I don't really know much about the Darkness, not really my kind of thing which I don't mean in a deprecating way, but I found this channel a few days ago while isolating with COVID . . . gotta say thank you for helping me fight cabin fever man 👍 love the vids and the quintessentially British sense of humour, in my opinion 🤷🏼♀️ don't change a thing man 🤘
"Sounds like a band is playing something" being used as a compliment says everything really. Not about this song, but about the state of music in general.
Really enjoyed this episode Justin, hotels for " grans" had me in bits.
Crazy how stylistically in vogue the early 00s are… all i heard on this playlist was My Chemical Romance, The Killers, Cursive, all pop punk and Disturbed… well they sound as they did 20 years ago lol. Im 33 so its funny seeing it come full circle now
It's not that weird. In the early 2000s I was listening to bands like Motorhead and Fear.
i’m glad you liked palaye royale (or at least found them interesting). i’ve been listening to them for a while and their worldbuilding is pretty great
I was pleasantly surprised when i first discovered them. Really enjoyed their first record.
Wish he’d found them more interesting, they’re so good live.
This is my fav thing you do on your channel. Watching you pick up and play these is really great Justin.
...does anyone else notice how J.H playing/singing versions of songs is seemingly more appealing than the originals actually are?!?🤯 Musicianship(is that the right word?🤔) talent, +personality prevails. Awesome and reminiscent indeed.
🎶🤘🕺
(Appreciate the heads up on all *music things* too.
🙌👽🧟♀️)
All the time
Yes. So many times I have loved his version and then found the original and been super disappointed. If you see this Justin, please record a cover of Dust In The Wind! You've done bits of it in a couple videos and it is so good.
He needs to do a cover album project 👀
@@MrFacproductions he just needs to keep being himself🕺🙃🎶. It is refreshing and humbling(?)to see&hear (who knew this interweb thing could actually have a positive purpose&reason!?!🤯..thanks Mr.Justin Hawkins and your *riding again*🤩).
A lot of modern music become much better, if you remove all the heavy studio production and get it back to basics: real humans that sings and plays. Nearly all the mainstream music that are released nowadays are 90% software manipulation and 10% human.
I saw Interpol open for the Cure back sometime around 2003. I keep forgetting about them, but they are a pretty kick ass band.
Underrated band. Consistently put out great albums for time.
Incredible band
Fitting that Disturbed is number 1. Especially since it's the only rock song on the chart.
For your guitar stand fund! 😂 Thanks again for all the great content Justin!
Cheers Reid!
Usually hate the new "rock" haha, but I absolutely love Interpol and really enjoyed hearing your take on their latest single. You described them as "atmospheric", which I totally agree with. I personally refer to them as "mood music" - not sure if it's just the mood I'm in, but it does seem to embody a feeling. I could get lost in a lot of their songs. Interpol uses the combative guitars pretty regularly in their music, which we hear in Gran Hotel. I love it because you usually can't immediately follow the rhythm. It's like you have to sit and feel it out for a second and separate the lines. Just cool, as they usually are, and I was excited to hear your take on the song/Interpol as a band!
Interpol perform with real intensity/passion that always helps, the Darkness understand this, many bands never do.
Interpol is in a class by itself. The experience of listening to them is totally mood altering (for me). The first album is the pinnacle of their phenomenal body of work.
Hi Justin! I’m loving the analytical breakdown of the Interpol track! Great work, as always! Cheers man! ✌️
"a bit of phlegm sticking to your vocal chords, you can hear it clicking and flapping around - I love it"
This has to be my favourite videos you do, can’t wait for next weeks all new rock video
Poor Justin. It’s like when you get all dressed up for a night out, only for it to rain and the taxi to blow a tyre.
Sorry the top 5 was rubbish this week Justin, we love you
It’s been all about vocal affectations for years. Elevating accidental vocal sounds into a style where it’s overdone. Imagine a whole album of purposeful guitar string squeaks.
Your breakdowns are so educational, cheers, the musical examples as the top 5 however are yawn yawn yawn, all been done before and I wouldn't buy or download any of it as my music collection since the late 60's has all the genres covered already. Good luck to all the bands represented though, hope they all find a new and current audience. Respect to all musicians.
informative, funny, a brilliant channel. I rediscovered Justin after seeing The Darkness live with GnR a few weeks ago. Such a good band live, and this channel, wow, just wow.
Hi Justin, been following since the beginning and absolutely love the content, particularly your deep dives into the intricacies of music structure and production. I would love to hear your opinions on/analysis of some old Fu Manchu stuff, and I guess the whole Palm Desert Scene in general with QOTSA etc. Cheers!
KYUSS!
Recently watched your review of The1975 and how impressed you were with the cleverly brilliant lyrics. Then here, you comment on the double meaning (substance)in Lovato’s song. In each of The1975 albums, there’s always a standout... from Give Yourself A Try, Matty Healy’s lyrical genius is on full display with...
“I found a grey hair in one of my zoots. And like context in a modern debate I just took it out” !!!
Hope you've had a a chance to listen to more of their work... Brilliant lyrics are their feature!!!
Love your channel and learn so much from your music commentary. Thx!
I'm late to the game but thanks for the introduction to The Interrupters. Her voice is reminiscent of Melbourne's Brody Dalle. Hopefully she's taking better care of it, I saw Brody a few years ago and she was really struggling. Looked into them and their previous album was produced by Tim Armstrong of Rancid, Brody's ex which checks out.
In my neighbourhood, i'd get battered for wearing that, lol......i'll give it a go :P
Let us know the results.....for science of course
We all have our kinks.
Thanks for Fever Dream, Palaye Royale's worth a listening or a few for sure
Really enjoyed this and the other Spotify run down. Would love to see you breakdown your brother's album with Stone Gods, if it's appropriate 😄
I'd rather him cover hot leg. It was pretty cool stuff.
The great Nita Strauss, formerly of Alice Cooper's band, is the guitarist for Demi Lovato.
Shame on Nita for selling her soul for such a load of shit
It's gotta be a well paying gig with cozy touring accommodations. It's also probably easier to be a hot female musician playing to teenage girls than a bunch of drunk middle aged men. That being said, I can't see her being creatively challenged doing that type of music. Hopefully she has a contract that allows her to work with other bands when she isn't touring.
To think she knows the chords to both School's Out as well as Let it Go...
Hi justin, Muse has released a New song that seems to be back on par with the Black Holes & Revelations days, would be great to hear your views on it.
I want to win that contest where you get 5 minutes to run into your wardrobe and grab what you can.
Never ever would I have voluntarily listened to anything by Demi Lovato, but this song is kinda good. I believe Hell has just frozen over, or pigs flew...
Demi's song has a very early 2000's pop-punk feel. To it.
Man, now I need to go listen to Permission to land on repeat for a few hours to cleanse my bleeding ear-holes....
A / Am / E
Nobody Does It Better. Lovely change with vocal melody. Really suited Radiohead as a cover.
* Love the show, Justin!
These are fast becoming my favourite vids of Justin
The Des Rocs song sounds like 'Summertime sadness' by Lana Del Rey.
Justin I always enjoy your videos but which one was a rock song?
Hey Justin, you should react to Jazz Emu. Maybe 'Not as sexy', 'Tiny butt' or 'hench'. Quality comedy music. He also covered 'I believe in a thing called love'.
Justin, you should check out Paolo Nutini's new song 'Everywhere'. It blew me away
OMG I was going to put this comment up too. - the live version from Trnsmit festival is so beautiful - I was there and I could hardly speak he was just brilliant. New version of pencil full of lead was amazing too
Ooo Justin you gotta do a show on Scott Walker, such a unique artist
Please make an episode about DREAM THEATER! :)
HI JUSTIN!!! can you look at Parcels Live vol.1? I’ve not shown it to anyone who’s not been blown away (esp musical folks). Got me v much through lockdown so would be great to hear your thoughts. Keep up the great work love the channel!
Always happy to hear from Interpol
I’ve been waiting for a video like this haha 😂 amazing 🤩 not that your other videos aren’t amazing because they are but i like to see you talk about different genres 🤩
Hang on a minute….. is Demi Lavato Rock now?????? I need to catch up haha 😂
"Hold on to your arse" just wins the internet for me today.
Really enjoying the reviews of the top rock songs.
Palaye Royale's a pretty good band. They've been putting out some decent rock for a few years now.
Demi was doing rock pretty early on and it was damn good. She got away from it for some reason. Hopefully this song is a step towards her getting back to kicking ass.
Disturbed is being Disturbed. And it's f'in fantastic. If it ain't broke...
Next week I hope to see some Slipknot and (hopefully, but unlikely) Megadeth!
Megadeth & Ice-T, c'mon, it don't get any better than that!!! 2 of the GOATs!!!!
Justin de-tuning!? Or even tuning at all!? Heresy!
I love this channel man, you are a legend
I like to imagine that the guitarist did that sideways jump thing when they were recording in the studio. I hope they didn't end up with a concussion. I'm sure the label probably picked a studio with a high enough ceiling, or at least put some padding on there.
JUSTIN. BIG FAN FOR LONG TIME. HAVE YOU HEARD OF DIRTY HONEY? PLEASE CHECK THEM OUT. THEY ARE PURE ROCK N ROLL OLD SCHOOL BUT NEW BAND.
Saw them supporting Rival Sons recently; they really won the audience over. 👍
@@agnessaltonstall2182 They should be bigger.
My fav 3 bands. Darkness, Rival Sons & Dirty Honey!
I think they were the third band on the “young guns” tour last year with Mammoth WVH, and S8nt Electric (I don’t know how they spell it).
I heard the end of S.E.’s set, and it sounded pretty good, but I left after Wolf’s set.
The girls in the bathroom said that Dirty Honey was worth staying for, but I was too tired. My mistake?
The last band (not counting Disturbed obviously) had HEAVY My Chemical Romance vibes imo. Both in tone and aesthetics. Guess it was only a matter of time before new bands inspired by them started popping out.
Love these videos. Too lazy to keep track of this stuff, so these are always welcome. Thank you Justin.
Black Parade is like 15 years old so shouldn't be a massive surprise.
It's just a shame this is the outcome
I'd say Demi Lovato's' current stuff sounds like mid 2000s Paramore. I haven't really listened to Substance but had assumed it was related to drugs as Demi does write songs about her/their struggle with alcohol and drugs.
Agreed, but that’s not a bad thing IMHO
please can you do a video on Sports Team, definitely watch a live video of them because they are so entertaining to watch. and also The Lathums would be a good one to see
Loving the channel Justin. Keep up the good work!
Justin, Always been a Fan and Loving this TH-cam Renaissance of yours. Highly Entertaining! Would love to hear your take on The Strokes debut album, "Is this It", if you had any opinion of it.
🤣…your countdown announcer personality is like a weird mash-up of Casey Kasem and the character of Steven Toast from Toast of London. Makes me laugh. Good one.
The ostinato in the second one is straight out of Luna by Smashing Pumpkins. Very Corganesque.
Jeez Louise! Can't they come up with some new chord progressions and melodies. Both those first songs sound like a million others using what I call the Green Day chord sequence, with standard US punk melodies. Interpol are the only original songwriters in the top 5. This is why I loved The Beatles and Nirvana, they were always experimenting with new progressions and trying to create something original.
Good stuff Justin. Not really my cup of tea but I love your resumés. Substance in song 1 could refer to profound meaning: meaning to grab hold of, if you will. Unfortunately her search is ultimately doomed. People don't have the patience to listen to long intros anymore. It's a cultural thing I reckon. They want to get to the C, F, Am, G (or any variation thereof) straight away. Imagine if Pink Floyd released "Time" now. We wouldn't have time to listen to all those clocks and ticktocking.
21:05 to 21:12 .... made my day!.... i love your videos!!!!!!!
Kept thinking my mouse cursor was moving all on it's own during that vid :D
This was so fun.
Maybe have another guitar tuned down?
Much love to you Mr. Hawkins ♡
Exactly my thought. And two stands. But if he can tune up and down this fast, he can get get away with just the one guitar.
@@tolvajakos I can tune pretty fast, but when you're trying to go through a list with different songs in different tunnings i imagine it gets a bit "meh." I like keeping my SG all down a minor third, and the strat I made for myself at drop D.
@@charliebluechaos4963 I put the Dan Hawkins pickups in my SG. T98 iirc. Finally got some greenbacks and got the tones I've always wanted.
@@jc.1191 wait wait what? Dan pickups??? My hobby is building and modifying guitars. What Dan pick ups? I need them, where? LET ME KNOW
SG's are meant to be down tuned haha! I keep mine in C# and use it to play Black Sabbath. Good for you!
Hi Justin, that Des Rock bit you were wondering about, reminds me of Lana Del Rey - Summertime Sadness
Disturbed is still trucking. They've managed to go about twenty years without changing a single thing. Another band I don't particularly like, but they aren't shitting out overbaked pop songs with distortion, so they're possibly the best on the list, which is depressing.
They’ve grown on me, to the point where I’m driving up to Irvine in the summer to see them.
Grand Hotel is a fabulous Greta Garbo film with a young Joan Crawford. Perhaps that was the genesis for the Interpol song?
Eloise by Barry Ryan was the best. It is so varied and dramatic it makes me cry and I really cry as it gets into the last part. Awesome bassline also.
But seriously, please share the full stack in the corner with us!
Justin - I’d love to see an episode about the Glorious Sons from Kingston, Ontario. They’re a newish rock band actually playing rock music. Great band!
There those bands where you realize they are better song writers than musicians, the more I watch this channel, the more I realize that Justin is possibly incredibly talented.
That Demi Lovato song sounds very much like a paramore type of song. Justin you should look at Paramore, to me their sound was innovative and has since been taken as the blueprint for angst rock/pop punk
Palaye Royale's first record is definitely worth a listen.
Or third album, The Bastards. I love PR, a bit sad now after that critique.
YES! Seeing Des Rocs here makes me so happy. He’s finally getting the recognition he deserves. Love that guy
"Nobody does it better" is a great song for that change.
Lol you were mentioning the efficient jump with retracted legs on the first beat and the only thing in my mind was "yeah, that's green day"
loving the air drumming
I am going to have to be a grumpy old Dad rocker here and call BS on any of those songs being "Rock". I am not saying they are all rubbish (some are quite good) just saying none of them are actual Rock. Its Pop Rock at best... Sad days for Rock... :(
The song you're thinking of with Des Rocs is Shallow by Lady gaga the line "tell me something boy".
It does sound a bit like that! My first thought was the bridge of Summertime Sadness ("Kiss me hard before you go/summertime sadness")
Everytime I see the song title for Disturbed's new single the London Quireboys' Hey You pops in my head.
I was rather worried they were going to release yet another cover, this time of Pink Floyd. Thankfully, it's an original!
You can thank, in part, Tastemaker Douche Extraordinaire Jann Wenner at Rolling Stone for opening up the _ROCK AND ROLL_ Hall Of Fame to ANY artist and genre.
3:51 Stone Temple Pilots Interstate Love Song. IDK if it's the same but I couldn't stop thinking about that and had to look it up. lol
I love the photos on the wall.
I'm not sure if you've covered them on your channel, but I'd like to know your thoughts on faith no more?
I would, too.
Please do a review of Yard Act new tune 100% Endurance. They are a bit like The Fall.
I love Des Rocs more than I love myself
sorted the comments newest first hoping to find a heidi in the wild .. helloooo (and agreed)

That first over produced thing was just a reimagined Paramour, the second tune was, a thing. Interpol is always fantastic and no need of dissection, but for your info, Paul Banks plays the bass on their albums now. With all that said, I have a great suggestion for something new, and it'll give you a lot to digest, Do an episode about the new OFF! song released today, "War Above Los Angeles". That'll rip your face off(no pun intended) and give you some eargasm fun
I love how he said the last one took too long but this one was actually longer
I thought the younger internet generations would have been savvy enough to see Pop Punk and Emo haven't aged well but it seems nothing changes and life is a round circle
14:35
That Interpol song reeks of Coldplay. If I just heard that on the radio with no introduction, I’d have thought it was Coldplay.
Justin Dear, Have you taken a look at the band "Dirty Honey" yet? I like a few of their songs, I think they have a very L.A. "rock n' fn' roll" sound.
Didn't know much about Demi heard her appearance on Joe Rogan and my god she's been through alot of shit (who hasn't) but her music definitely changed alot because of it abitt like Miley Cyrus I guess
Demi Lovato and several other women in pop/rock giving me Kelly Clarkson My December vibes. I take it to mean that Kelly was ahead of her time with that record.
the des rocs melody is lady gaga "one reason to stay." "i kneel down to pray. lord show me the way."
There is a Mexican rock trio of sisters called The Warning who are well worth a listen to
This is the only way I'm interested in the charts 😂
