😮Anybody still get the chills when that opening riff hits? Just me? Okay thats cool
No me too. I listen to this on the bike ride to school and that part has me going fast the whole time
Who’s listening in 2024?
Anyone cool! ROCK ON!🤘🏼
SOCIAL DISTORTION ROCKS!!!
Yes!!!
Here!
🤘🤘🤘
👋🏻
One of those folk punk weirdo’s
2024 checking in. Never had seen this before. Fantastic song, outstanding storytelling!!
классный ролик!!!
Cool detail: The detective(?) is carrying a M1903 Springfield. He's in his 30s, which means he would have likely been a WWI veteran. More than likely he would have carried that exact weapon in the trenches, and known it exceptionally well. It only had 5 in the magazine. He fired only 5 rounds, and appeared to hit center target in 4 out of the 5. First one into the engine block, second into the driver, third into Brent's character's chest, fourth appears to miss, fifth into Ness' character.
Good call....my dad was a gun dealer so it's cool to see someone else appreciate weaponry instead of bangin a 9 mil & thinking you're a "gangster" LOL The 1920's-50's REAL gangsters lived
Only a rifleman would notice that. Glad to know there are a few of us around.
Impressive reply
Wow! What an eye for detail. Impressive that this much thought went into making this video.
You would be right, my brother.
My best friend just died today at 6:55 this morning, this was his absolute favorite song , I'm just heartbroken because he was the best RN I ever had the privilege to meet 💔💔💔 he told me once he wanted this played at his funeral , I may not get to do that but I'm playing it now 😭💔💔💔💔💔💔💔
Sorry to hear that. R.I.P your friend
Anyone else still listening to this legend
I am 64 years young. Heard a lot of great music over the years. Many different genres. I can always depend on SD to exorcise those counter productive emotions that arise within us all from time to time. The best video ever!
TRUTHAT
Song still Kicks Ass in 2023 🖤🎸
Still? It is only 12 years old, but yes!
You see this MTV?! This...THIS is what music television is supposed to look like!
indeed
💯 percent
Well said, my friend. MTV is a joke.
Mike Ness is a legend, deeply under appreciated for his talents. He's a lot like Johnny Cash with a splash of punk rock.
Him and John Fogerty American Icons
Amen
guitarworld.com ranks him 13th most badass guitarist of all time! Coincidental that he was No. 13!?!?
Wes Williams Well said good sir
I never had a bucket list but I finally got to see Mike and the gang last year it’s probably the last concert I’ll ever see but I’ll die happy knowing that
This has gotta be one of my favorite music videos. It's like a short film in its own right.
Are you joking? A gang robs a bank and then gets shot by the cops later. Not exactly sure what constitutes a short film, but it needs more of a story than that...right?
So to get in the mood of my story focusing on a Punk Girl in 2008 LA, I started listening to some punk again and this is my first time seeing the video and the movie like idea caught me off guard

Saw these guys open up for the Ramones when I was 15. 25 years later and seeing them 8 more times and they are still my favorite band...
You are so fortunate. I've seen Social D but never the Ramones. Kudos to you, sir
I've seen both bands a grip of times they fn rock
co headljner
I also saw that tour, line up and it was my B day too boot. Berkeley Calif, Greek Theatre. opening was 'Overwhelming Colorfast', a local Antioch, Calif band. It was a Spectacular night. Fall weather 10-10-9?
Thank goodness for a music video that tells a story. Glad people still put thought into them.
+Mike Anderson I agree. This is one of the best videos ever. It's been like 5 years, and I still love watching it from time to time.
+Mike Anderson . I also like the suble cues in the plot. This was a heist that went sour. You can grasp from the newspaper headline that they'd done prior robberies, but not a mass killing. "Sick Boy" is a grim and mean dude, he never sheds a tear, yet he's traumatized by flashbacks about the murders when he enters the barn at 4:21.
Like in animation, where every cell matters - every camera shot in this video contributed to the story or the characters.
Mike Anderson Rather thank sluts dressed half naked dancing in front of the camera for views
music video? more like a short film, damn that was nice
Are you joking? A gang robs a bank and then gets shot by the cops later. Not sure what constitutes a short film, but sorry - not today.
@@cjkoca1 It's a concise story with a cinematic feel to it. I don't see why it wouldn't be likened to a short film.
@@cjkoca1 Not sorry. Today.
The most badass music video ever made, I'm literally crying right now.
Seriously? Beat It by Michael Jackson destroys this!
...I am laughing at that, too.
SocialD destroyed it with this vid.
we need a Music channel that shows videos...hmmm...I shall call it MTV, circa 1982.
+Scott Struble Michael Jackson was a pedophile. Fuck off.
Mike Johnston , read what I wrote again.
I said this vid destroyed Beat It.
Reading Compresion...get some.
you mean back when there was still music on mtv
DivineDawn sort of, at least mtv was the shit back then, but I've never seen this music video on mtv, talkin' about bad luck eh Lol
Just remembered, it's about to be the 20's again
Slevin Reviews My friend! The song starts, "I'm a gangtser, 1934....."
Yeah , It's Real Close Now !
2020
yep. here we are.
Welcome to the future my friend, how have you changed throughout the 6 years?\
The only music video I know of where the song is extended to accomodate for an epic video, not shortened to save money.
Still listening?
Still

"13's my lucky number, to you it means stay inside"
- Bad Luck by Social Distortion
🎉 thats right.great line
My brother introduced me to social distortion, he invited me to a social D concert back in 1996 at the Hollywood palladium, I was 22 yrs & he was19. We both now 48 yrs & 46 yrs old. He bought me tix for tonight s show at the Belasco in Los Angeles. It's been 26 yrs since last time I've seen them. I'm so excited & feel young again. Can't wait 🤘🇺🇲💋. Thanks lil brother Sergio
Mike Ness from social D. Really tells a story with each and every song u can feel there music
・
John Dillinger never died. He just stopped robbing banks and started a Punk Band.
Mike ness in my opinion is the world's greatest song writer no one can write songs like this guy a total genius
I met Mr. Brent Harding back in 06 at a re-sale shop in K.C. I was at the VA Hosp in 06 being treated for numerous things after my deployment to Iraq. I saw Social D perform live in Honolulu in 2001 or 2002. One of the highlights of my life. What Mike Ness and the rest of the guys put out has helped me thru so much in my life. Thank you for what you do.
I love it, I love the Bonnie, Clyde, Buck, Blanche Barrow feel to it. Thanks Social D for keeping the feeling alive.
English is not my native language.
when I was a teenager, I always wanted to know what Mike Ness is singing about so badly...
so I always had a English-Japanese dictionary with me.
now, English is still difficult but I understand his lyrics 100%
Social D is more than just a punk rock band for me.
thats really cool the music really spoke to you and in turn it made you learn
thyringmaster
thank you!
Im still learning and never get bored.
wish they come to Japan someday...
Mike Ness's lyrics and music are super pretty basic. English is not my native language either , but I speak fluidly. I would suggest learning other lyrics from other bands, for ex. listen to NoFX's Punk In Drublic, awesome lyrics that'll make you think and learn words, and shit. Or for that matter try anything from Bad REeligion. haha. Not to down SD, one of my favorite bands, just my 2 cents.
thebarrochannel I like NOFX too!
Fat Mike has been making great songs for yrs.
I also like bad religion for a long time but their lyrics are bit too difficult for me sometime...
definitely need a dictionary.lol
thanks for your suggestions my friend!!
AK SNA thats the point! get that dictionary out.
This Short Flick is just plain BADASS, It fits the Music perfectly..great production...
Still loveing it 2019ish
This song is something else .... Pure emotions
And this is where my daily quarantine browsing led me to today.
This is SOOO well done. Even better than most movies about the era. I must have watched it at least half a hundred times. The very definition of badass backed by an absolute killer track.
Perfectly captures the midwestern armed bank robber craze of the late 1920's. Bonnie and Clyde being the most famous example.
As an enthusiast of the era, I just love the attention to detail. Especially that Ness is wearing gloves. You see so many Tommy gun scenes without them and those suckers ran HOT! They would fry your hands if you didn't have them.
Kudos SD. Superb work on this!
love some Social D never thought of them strictly as punk, to me they are and have always been just amazingly awesome true Rock n Roll.
Mas eles são muito punks sim, apesar disso.
@@Hectorhc13 they have their own style of punk called greaser punk ... it's definitely no crustpunk, hardcorepunk or d-beat.
How does this not have more views? One of the best music videos I've ever seen.
love seeing his son carry on the punk rock. Mike Ness is a god in the punk world! He never sold out to make money. Just wrote what was true to him!!!!
Everyone who's saying these guys "aren't punk"...obviously, you don't really know their entire catalog and/or history about Social Distortion. Just because they aren't repetitive Bad Religion type of punk (still like you, BR) doesn't make them any less punk. They've obviously matured up since they've formed.
Yeah, I actually prefer their material up to the 2000s (Sex, Love and Rock &Roll was honestly my least favorite album), but this one is kinda back-to-basic, sobering and definitely lives up to not just punk itself, but for who the band is.
Just sayyinn..
Daniel Medina Sex, Love & Rock N Roll is my no.1 SD Album, but i agree wholeheartedly. The thing i love about these guys is their constant maturity. They are growing *With the fans* instead of sticking to the formula. Respect.
That's because most people think punk, they think mohawks and clothes pins, Social D you think Rat Rods and Bettie Page.
It’s great rock n roll
@@roguelead72 Which WAS Punk Rock before Punk Rock existed. Mad Respect to Social D.
Ironically Sex Love and Rock N Roll is my favorite album
Best music video ever made period!!!!!!!
I just started listening to social distortion and I feel like I am listening to music from indie heaven
WOW! It's like watching a music video and a gangster movie at the same time. My heart beats fast while I'm watching this..
My first punk show was Social Distortion....in 1989....me and my punker commrade....we took a greyhound.. from Laredo to SATX....I had a bomber in my pocket....and a sniffer dog came on the bus....kept my cool .....whatever.....West Ave... special events center ....my first punk show.... Crippled By Society....and Social Distortion.....there was a wooden barricade....and the nail points were not
hammerd down....my friend Greg got his palm slashed good..not stitches.....but bloody....and the bouncers were pinche' mean with the kids......we Laredo kids 10 or so in all drank all nite with Dennis Danelle,(r.i.p.)....and John Mauer......at the motel.....most righteous intro to punk.1989.Mike was with a hot Texan groupie...but he was way cool after the show meet and greet.
1979, the band was born and this is one of their best songs and then the video.
Not only maintaining the art of making true music, but also bringing back the art form of videos. Is there anything this guy cant do? Amazing.
The fact that this Social D. masterpiece isn't in Peaky Blinders season 6, which is a gangster drama that takes place in 1934, is truly sad. A soundtrack crime, to be honest.
Love the fact the the fire arms are not only correct, but there is a defiant former soldier in the mix who is a very good shot.
I also like how that rifle has a distinct sound that stands out from the rest of the chaotic gun battle.
I have clung to this music since 1995 like a drowning man clings to that life raft. I wept the first time I heard " Down Here With The Rest Of Us". I love Mike's solo albums. There is so much love poured into all of it. My life at one point was total and complete shit. I felt so defeated and so useless and so unloved and so broken. And through it all, I didn't have anything. But I did have those records, and I would just drink and play them. I have the same reverence for Mike Ness that I hold for Johnny Cash and Roy Orbison.
That's how I'm feeling now, my life isn't going well but I'm trying to fix it...Mike's music and lyrics are helping me a lot. I'm also learning guitar, it's like therapy for me. I'm glad to hear you are doing better now.
Low self opinion by Henry Rollins got me.
@@wannabecarguy rollins all you need is 2 words to be a success YES and OK. epic and true.
I just heard the intro. to this song on the 1920's radio, and said, wait I know this song!!! Shazamed it, and sure as shit it was a song from 1931, Annette Hanshaw- Walkin' My Baby Back Home. Enjoy!
i find this to date one of the coolest music videos ever made..
Epitaph records at one point must of had the best bands signed in the history of music.
Seriously guys one of the greatest music videos I've seen
"Fucking Amazing" is the only thing to say. The guns are realistic and amazing. They had all the good ones, model 189 shot gun, 1903 spring field, 1928 Thomson, 1911 colt, and 38 revolver
Agreed! That 1903 Springfield is one hell of a rifle too.
hell fuckin ya. M1903a3 and a4 Springfield rifles rock-fat-ass-hard.o do M1garands
next to you know...the 1911's shooting none stop when they only hold 9 a pop...
dragoncustomcycles They actually hold 7 in a magazine and one in the chamber. So it's 7 a pop.
Joseph Damiano Do you even fucking math, 7 in the mag, one in the chamber, that'd be 8. But you're wrong in that regard anyways, it's 8 in the mag, one in the chamber, 9 rounds total.
Hey I dont care,I respect any man that knows his guns.
I freaking LOVE this song! GG
You're not alone :D
Holy shit! It's Bodil!
BODILL FORTY!!! BODILLL FOORTYYY!!
***** bodil
***** The guy who wrote the comment
Only a band like this with a look like this could make a retro video like this. Amazing.
Social Distortion!! 13's always been my number
still
SD has been my favorite band since 1998 when I was 20 and now 2022 at 43 still loving them. Even my 6 yr and 9 yr old sons love to jam this song with me they play drum and bass, I play guitar. Mike Ness is a legend.
beyond brilliant --- any city, any country, any planet !!!
I wish I could of showed this video to my pops before he passed he would of loved this video :)
+Andrea Newsome Sorry to hear that it is a great song
hell yea he would of loved this vid
+Francisco Ferrel hell yeh he was that was his favorite band
I almost cried at the end, watching Mike "Sick Boy" Ness go out in a hail of gunfire. That wasn't a music video that was a story narrated by a damn good song.
Everyone here arguing if these guys are punk or not and I'm just here like "can we all just shut the fuck up and enjoy the music lol"
+Evolutionizer "I can't enjoy it without a proper label!!!" sigh. Agreed.
+Evolutionizer . I get sick and tired of the hundreds of genres and sub-genres. It's all rock n roll to me.
+C. Parks lol so for you anarcho-punk is just punk aaa?=)))dafuq=)))))))))
+C. Parks punk like many other genre is much better to know subgenres if you wanna get into some bands from horror-punk or other kind of subgenres
+Evolutionizer its a happy californian punk style
Snuck in behind the tour buses for the Vans Warped tour 98 specifically to see Social D and later that day The Specials. It's a day that I'll never forget. Both bands were to day the least, on point ☝️
Sounds like it was an amazing day for sure! 🤘❤️🤘
Well I'm a gangster 1934
Junkies, Winos, Pimps & Whores
And all you men, women and kids
best get out the way
I just left your town, took all your loot,
bought a pink carnation and a pinstripe suit,
a hopped-up V8 Ford and some two-tone shoes
And I'm already gone, I like the pool of the blood and sorrow,
I've got the Machine Gun Blues
I'll be outta of here for the break of dawn,
I'll hit the highway, smoke a big cigar,
got to stop and bury the cash, then get some more
There's only one thing on my mind,
that's making it across that ol' state line,
but I've a hell of avenging bullets,
waiting there for me
And I'm already gone, I've left a path of pure destruction,
I've got the Machine Gun Blues
I'm already gone, my life will soon be through,
I've got the Machine Gun Blues
I'm public enemy #1
I'm sorry for all the things that I've done
If indeed we do cross path, it's nothing personal
And I'm already gone, I've left a trail of devastation,
I've got the Machine Gun Blues
I'm already gone, my life will soon be through,
I've got the Machine Gun Blues
left a pool
Social distortion are to talented and sincere for mtv
Great song and the video definatly keeps you engaged. This band brings back so many memories.
This song always makes me think of Sons of Anarchy. Love this song.
DAMN! I was born in the wrong era. I've always the time they depict here. The 1930s thru the pre-rock n roll 1950s.
This is the best music video ever.
Mike ness is a legend one of my favorite musicians of all times
best music video ever
Damned incredible video. This is why MTV used to be such a big deal.... Artists could express themselves in more than one media.
Happy 61st man. I hope I live that long
The song is ok, but the video is top notch. Kudos to their costumes team and their director. Very well done.
+Sigh Naps . Definately - so many little details in this fit together, right down to the gunsmoke hanging in the room at 3:38. The direction and camera angles were excellent, plus filming this at Union Station really helped set the 30s L.A. ambiance.
The video not only tells a story but shows some complexity in Ness's character and the shoeshine boy. As horrible as the crime scene was, the boy wouldn't be a witness - so we get to wonder why. Fear of retribution by the gangsters? Or maybe some sense that Ness's character wasn't 100% rotten, since the boy saw the other gangsters open fire on the customers and employees which began the mayhem...further complicated by seeing Ness duel with the soldier, and then sparing the man's wife, who walked in at the end.
Dunno if Ness ever had any acting offers - but he was a badass gangster in this video! His own character is interesting too. You can sense at 3:11 he didn't want this heist to get so far out of control, and he's haunted by it later in the barn scene. Even studying the confrontation with the soldier, Ness waited for him to shoot first, and had tried to warn him off with that "head shake".
And to top it off, I'd say that the other band members pulled their weight too, during their own cutaway scenes. They looked their parts and helped carry the story.
of all the albums that Social Distortion has released through the years, I am most taken with Hard Times and Nursery Rhymes....I bought it initially thinking that it would be a "middle of the road" CD that most artists make at this point in their career trajectory, but I instantly found a couple of songs that I liked out of the gate and from that point, it just got better and better. Now roughly three months since buying the CD, if it's possible to wear grooves in a CD, I have done it...
The band were the best actors in this.
i saw these guys at the metropolis in montreal for my bday last week, it was a great gift from a special friend throughout the years thanx marty, thanx social distorion ... and it burns,burns,burns......................................................................
That's probably the best music video I've seen literally in the last 12 plus years. Like someone else said before, Thank god for Mike Ness and Social D for keeping Punk Rock alive these days
I love this band so much
One bad ass video from my favorite band for over 20 YEARS
It's fine and atmospheric made video, about the roaring 20s in USA.
Hands down one of the best music videos I've ever seen, damn..
This is my song for sure. Thanks for posting it. Been a Social D fan for like 20 years now. Glad they never changed too much,
This is the best, THE BEST, music video that has been and will ever be made.
HOLY SHIT!!!! That was the darkest most intense video I have ever seen!!!!!!!! Love the guy in the end, one well aimed round one kill Sir!! DAMN!!!!
keeping it classic ! doing a music video with a story(minifilm)... can't get old ... like the music of social d thanks mike
Sickest band ever
This song was played on a sons of anarchy episode ( No wonder it sounded so familiar when I 1st heard it on youtube ) and it was a very fitting song for that episode . . . . .I totally LOVE this band, they can do no wrong in my eyes . . . : ))
My best friend took me to there concert in Munich, hadn't known them before, always listended to old-school rockabilly. Was great, hope they come back again, i will be there. :)
Greatest band ever!
Hands down the most badass band!
Yeah,getting pretty rare in these. It shows u both the good and bad
I'm at the Pomona Friday night market in California. Walking by, see a beautiful old car and start talking to the owner, a guy named Manny. Tells me to look up this music video, his car is featured in the music video!
Social distortion, keeping it local and keeping it cool.
beyond great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Best video and song I’ve seen/heard in long time. Ness punching a conservative brought me back here today.
Still listening in 2023
My headphones sound different after blasting this 10x ummmmmmmmmmmmm… worth it
That was some good shit... kinda proves that smaller labels can still put out good videos, and this is exactly what I'd imagine a video written by Mike Ness would be. Mike's sure lookin old, but he's still a punk rock god with style his own. Hope Social D keeps puttin new shit out for many more years, even when Mike's sittin in a rocking-chair playin his guitar.
Whahaha....cool to see that Mikes machinegun fits completely in the Guitar case (1:50) but when he opens it (1:57) the butt sticks out.... hahaha.... #Details
But further on.... Social D is an fucking awsome band..... The helped me through a lot.... An we played SD at our wedding ceremony
You played SD at your wedding ceremony? Wow. You got my respect...
yes. just yes. one hundred freakin percent. my absolute favorite music video of all time. i can’t. ✋🏼🥲
No comment other than Social D. Is a great band and Mike Ness is superb
probobly one of the best music videos ive ever seen
Mike Ness could kill it in Hollywood!
mike ness is one of the reasons im still alive...
Him and John Fogerty are American Icons and im an Eastern Canadian LoL
I don't care what the "hardcore" punks say, I like ALL of social d's music. From the early lude boy/mainliner stuff to this shit. All good shit.
This has to be one of the most epic music videos I have seen
