This song, like every classic, is best cranked to the max. Crank it up, close your eyes and get fired up. There is no other way to listen to this....once or twice on repeat and you could go out and take down the world if you wanted to. I am SOOO Pumped for the new album!!!
Nikki's stage presence in this makes me so happy! She often looks a little awkward and shy but she really lets go in this video. Especially at the end.
if you ever wonder what it should be if Dee Dee Ramone would play the drums? ... well ... here is your answer. ... This guy is one of my favs drummers ever! Keep Rocking Mr. Guanlao
I'm not sure of the date. I just know from their twitter and facebook page updates that they are busy in the studio right now recording the new album which will apparently be titled "3". I am very excited.
@gome5000 I looked that up cuz I was inerested too. This is what he said in an interview: "That’s just the my own little style. It kind of happened over the years and it got higher and higher, and eventually it got a little bit of novelty. Any little bit of attention it can bring to me as a drummer is alright too."
oshilzl Anyone delusional to think that one band is better than another needs a reality check. As much as I hear the similarity between the two, I personally like Silversun Pickups more. I prefer Brian Aubert's vocals more. And to say Smashing Pumpkins "reinvented a musical genre and scene" is ridiculous. Indie rock cannot be formed by a single band, as a genre is not one band. A genre is a genre, a band is a band. Go to Smashing Pumpkins videos if you cannot listen to another band without hatred.
@padilpr1640 just keep practicing man. I wish I could sound like this but I just need more effort into practicing. But don't just copy and paste(no matter how much I want to). Take the influence but twist it to make it your own. Good luck in your band man =)
@IlkenGirth the Smashing Pumpkins are one of the most influential bands of the '90s. How can you say Corgan is trash when this guy completely ripped his vocal style? I like both SSPU and SP, but SP is by far the better band, and they'll be remembered for it.
@1ocmer1 Stuck up? Possibly. Is it so easy for one person to judge? Regardless, Like I told him, you are welcome to your opinion, but I don't have to agree with it. I do like your copy/paste skills, but you should know Wikipedia is hardly a reliable source. Also, I genuinely appreciate your aptitude for diplomacy in our debate. Can you say their voices are similar? The same way a cat and a whale are similar. They both are animals, so I guess technically. P.s. Deny* is a* opinion*
Anyone delusional to think the Pickups come near the music accomplishment and greatness of the smashing pumpkins needs a reality check. Few rock bands in history compare to the Pumpkins, they reinvented a musical genre and scene. Obviously they influenced the members of the Silversun Pickups.
Their drummer is so entertaining to watch. You can tell he's having a blast

I am SOOO Pumped for the new album!!!
yes. I randomly remembered this band/song when I was driving on the highway and I nearly levitated.
Nikki!!!! What an awesome bass player!
SSPU are tight. Polished. Great live show. Altogether a great band that kills it live with great guitar driven rock. Never goes out of style.
Why can't there be more bands like this? Just amazing.
Hands down my favorite band.
Seen them twice live, & can assure you they play almost as good as this live performance here. Highly recommended checking them out if your a fan.
what a weird fuckin amazingly haunting voice.
Nikki's stage presence in this makes me so happy! She often looks a little awkward and shy but she really lets go in this video. Especially at the end.
Nikki let's it rip here. It's awesome.
It's so nice to see a BAND that enjoys playing.
Freaking love that band. Amazing live!
I love. The Royal We.
Nikki Monninger is such a sweetheart and a total badass altogether!... Look at her properly rocking out at 2:46
Spot on bro. She rocks big time. Smashes that Thunderbird beautifully.
I love her
She rocks yeah!
if you ever wonder what it should be if Dee Dee Ramone would play the drums? ... well ... here is your answer. ... This guy is one of my favs drummers ever! Keep Rocking Mr. Guanlao
Throw that hat up 8 feet. Lol. The fun
funny how people argue over whos better. smashing pumpkins or silversun... they both amazin! im glad we have them both!!!
What a great performance.
0:26 Brian enters before time, and Nikki turns to him like HEY What? hahaha
No pretty sure that “hiccup” is planned & on the studio version
one of the best band in the world¡¡
Get the key boards volume up!!!!!!!!!!!, that makes the differences beetwen 90s ansd your visionary sound
Is that cymbal always located 4ft from the ceiling?
Looks like it, judging from other performance videos ive seen lol
I'm not sure of the date. I just know from their twitter and facebook page updates that they are busy in the studio right now recording the new album which will apparently be titled "3". I am very excited.
Love these guys!
Holy goosebumps
@gome5000 Drummer from Battles and Tomahawk does the same thing. It's usually done to keep yourself from overusing the crash.

Spectacular drumming!
Que sonzeira é essa??? Demais!!!
When he does that raspy yell for a split second a few times...I caught Isaac Brock
@kfw9257 There is! They're called the Smashing Pumpkins.
I'll never get use to the way Christopher drums, but keep dishing out hits like this I'll continue ignoring it
As a drummer with no actual training, seeing him gives me hope I can still be good lol
And this was a shortened for TV version. =]
AND YOU'LL BE LYING BY A NOTE ON THE FLOOR SIIIGNED!... meow!
honestly they have different style with s.pumpkins, they sounds more postpunk
@21grams1985 Do you know when it's comming out or even the first single?

Well said
You're correct. x) Excuse me on that one. I like my recent comment. Just scratch everything after the emoticon.
@gome5000 Why not? It's fun, awesome, and somewhat his signature. :D It's not called a High hat for nothing, innit.
no band has as much passion as they do. just look at 1:35 and that segment. all of them just in the flow.
Nikki jamming hard...love to see it
@padilpr1640 just keep practicing man. I wish I could sound like this but I just need more effort into practicing. But don't just copy and paste(no matter how much I want to). Take the influence but twist it to make it your own. Good luck in your band man =)
@kfw9257 patience my friend; change is coming soon. =)
why is his cymbal so high?

I hope there is a revival of Rock and Roll that will save us from this post Grunge alternative hipster ear candy for hipsters.
Go listen to Greta Van Fleet and quit your bitching.

Way to fast... album version better

Go listen to some more of your garbage music if that's what you prefer, and stop spreading your nonsense here, thanks.
