Sean’s bass line is nuts
Andrew wrote all of them from guitar lines.
@@Dom213 For some reason that makes it even better for me. Who says bass and guitar are mutually exclusive ways to play!?
@@Dom213 did NOT know this wtf
@Vincent H. I couldn't tell you, man, as I'm not much of a musician lol. I just remember reading about it before the album came out.
You can hear it?
When Parquet Courts said “Fuck Tom Brady” I feel that
Also with Next song its called Freebird II
This is one of the greatest bands right now
Diego Garcia Lopez Parquet Courts and Tame Impala are the most talented bands alive
Hell yeah the whole album is solid
Oh Hi Mark Puto flipado
king gizzard
pitchfork babies
Probably one of my favorite examples of extended metaphor. It’s so simple yet gets the point across.
I'm jealous of you for being able put "extended metaphor" into a sentence!
You're my punk now
Said in Papa Lazarous' voice obviously
It is not a song.
This is an essay with killer tunes.
A+ in my gradebook
Violence too
@@RLSteffler nice profile pic
I’m not native English, what this song is about ?
I like this song but "an essay with killer tunes" is not a good thing for a song to be
All us old UK vintage 1977 punks recognise this as a Gang of Four thesis articulated by The Cortinas from Bristol, sent via a time tunnel to modern day New York.
Respect.
Respect to you as well mate :)
Nicely said, John Murray.
@pykkervots Others have said Wire as well, particularly the bass parts.
There's a bit of The Fall in there too
Ahem, Minutemen anyone?
the most interesting, intelligent, energized, evolving, and influential band in America. I saw them a few weeks ago and I wish they played this song over and over
Well said Nathan. I saw them last week and I was sure they would open with TF, and they did. I also wished they played it over and over!
I saw them the first night of the tour in Boston and I knew they'd be opening with this, so of course that was when a very zealous security guard gave me a 5-minute bag check right as they were starting, but I made it in for the second half of the track!! So fucking good, gotta see em again ASAP
Where did they play in Boston? I'm from that area. Bummer you missed the beginning!
They played at the Royale which is kind of a fucking weird venue - that huge nightclub place in the Theater District - but overall it was solid. These dudes are loud AF - and I love it!
If they're evolving then why does every video related to them on TH-cam have dozens of comments along the lines of "I'm getting Wire/Gang of Four/etc vibes" and people pointing out that this stuff reminds them of older music?
And that, ladies and gentleman, is how you open a record.
game set and match
This is my favorite song rn. I keep playing it on repeat and I shared it with all of my friends. this song is perfect in every way! I can't help but dancing. I'd love to see these guys live .
Bands like this make me believe there will always be great music in this world.
Wow, panini stickers!!This brings lovely nostalgic memories growing up back home (England) during world cup years. Lovely stuff!
Just saw this band live last night. Truly special band. They’re doing something new and great for rock music. They know to perform a good show and write amazing music. I can’t wait to see how much this band improves next
This song has never been more relevant. Fantastic band!
Neither has "Two Dead Cops"
Dear newfound Parquet Courts: thank you from the innermost squirming portions of my anatomy for reminding me that I'm alive. I had forgotten. it was total football. Appreciated.
Sorry Americans, but this song isn't about American Football, ''Total Football'' is the name of a series of tactics used by the Netherlands national football (soccer) team. This tactics are strongly related to teamwork and cooperation, and that's the meaning of the lyrics.
he says fuck Tom Brady (american football player) at the end, so its not that weird to think that
We know
i need a Parquet Courts FC jersey
Great idea. Or even just a shirt with the logo.
Jake Margerison eu tambem
How about a dukla Prague away kit
I was stoned the first time i heard this, an absolute gem.
Same here my dood omg
Same here. Absolutely laughed my ass off at the fuck tom brady part at the end.
Do you remember if you were maybe also starving?
Even Tom Brady likes this song
I'm mad it took me so long to actually listen to this album. Damn! Absolutely blown away by the lyrics and it seems they have refined their song writing too and upped the sound quality which is never necessary but always welcomed. All around a great song and album. Stay woke and stay humble y'all. Peace n love.
That's so awesome!! I've seen these guys live and actually got to meet them. Down to Earth. Super-cool. Great band too!!
This song is too catchy...love the bass line
I could be about to pass out and this song will still get my on my feet groovin
Did he change his pp haha
Ciaran Markey yes i did change my poopy pants.
Good depiction
Me rn
My new favourite band. How the hell I have been ignoring this for the last god knows how long is criminal! Brilliant stuff!
Panini!
Maaan It only happens when I know im inloved with the band, I listened one song yesterday and daaamn Ive already heard all of your albums what a band!!! Hope you come someday to Argentina!
I listened to this before work, makes me feel empowered.
Thank you, Dr. Savage.
Lyrics:
We are conductors of sound, heat and energy
And I bet that you thought you had us figured out from the start
We are conduits of clear electricity
Now you’re back on the pitch to take the apparatus apart
You’re an ancient now
You're an ancient now
You're an ancient now
On your own
Rebels, teachers
Strikers, sweepers
Better protected
Whenever collected
We are troubled by your soft curiosity
But delighted to be anti everything you were taught
Are you put off by our footloose fluidity?
Have your hurt caucasian feelings left you so distraught?
Are you quite done now?
Are you quite done now?
Are you quite done now?
Not at all
Workers, authors
Poets, stoppers
Power resembled
If we are assembled
Only through those who stay awake can an institution be dismantled
It is dishonest, nay, a sin to stand for any anthem that attempts to drown out the roar of oppression
Hesse Total Football
Twombly Total Football
Tzara Total Football
Mina Total Football
Panthers Total Football
KoBrA Total Football
Dada Total Football
Beatles Total Football
Swapping parts and roles is not acting but rather emancipation from expectation
Collectivism and autonomy are not mutually exclusive
Those who find discomfort in your goals of liberation will be issued no apology
And fuck Tom Brady!
Thanks, good men
Errrr......... Doesn't the video show the lyrics as it goes along??
The revolution’s comin’. And I wanna be ready so thanks for the pump-up jam 😅
this song really gets good at the end tbh
The genius of a savage at work here.
Sanders 2020
finally! a song with the word sweepers on it!
I do not understand the concept of "total football" but as an American I love the idea of "total football"
search Johan Cruyff sir
The bass on this album is godlike
i **love** the theme and lyrics of this song
I'm really diggin' these guys! Thank you 89.3 The Current radio!!
Just heard them for the 1st last Christmas 2021, DTLA...Awesome Band!..Saved in my playlist, next to the Pixies, Gang Green, and others :)
I don’t know of any band working today that’s able to take on so many different styles, topics and rhythms-and to deliver them all with a ballsy mix of fury and good humor-as Parquet Courts.
this song came on the radio, my 9yo and her friend started dancing to it! Awesome
Oh, I feel the bones of some old Devo in this, and I am loving it!
Teresa Lana seriously. That was one of the first things that came to mind when they start sing in unison. for some reason it reminded me a lot of Devo. I’m glad someone else feels the same.
A. Savage told NPR that "The bass line of the song was inspired by Devo." Good ears!
Good call
I can hear Devo and the Buzzcocks in here too. Brilliant!
"I'd rather win 5-4 than 1-0"
How they kicks hit in the beginning is just wild i'm litterl listening this 5:56am this is just the best new WAVE punk
I can't help but feel the after effects in this video so I sing *** CC TOTAL PAGE TURN!**
Underrated editor comment 😂
XD
I hope this gets into more rotation in the World Cup season!
I love this band so much.

love this song
I'm a Patriots fan, and I fucking love that last line. Can't wait to shout it at their December show
What if you're a Buccaneers fan?
You can still shout it, that man is the 🐐 he can take it
"Light to decent 9 ." ~ Anthony Fantano
Love ir! Love the Panini spoof. Awesomeness.
Awesome from the mighty Parquet
Great ending too
Absolute banger
I cannot thumbs up this one enough. . . Makes me feel like a total badass when listening to it. Woof.
! Goooooooooooooool !!! for Football Club Parquet Courts
Siouxsie W. Where can i buy a jersey. I would wear it every day
I saw them play on Thursday night and in addition to tee shirts they were selling soccer scarves! Brilliant.
Miles offside that one mate
I'll swap you your Austin Brown for one of my spare A. Savages
How about I swap you a Max Savage card and I'll throw in a Parquet Courts FC sticker?
Broble Godamitt i really wanted that sean yeaton
I'm the kid trying to fit in with the Parquet Jocks but all i have are Car Seat Headrest themed matchbox racers
This baseline absolutely slays.
So good I have to go back to the video everyday
Same
I see you almost EVERYWHERE
They should play this song in the opening ceremony for EURO 2020!
Just now found this 4 years later. So good!
Glorious bassline!!!
Saw'em in Mexico City, their only gig in town.
Now that was awesome
2018 World Cup official song
Could you imagine the corrupt FIFA scum approving these lyrics? ;)
Fantasc 2019
I really love the guitar sounds!
Absolute belter!!
Those who find discomfort in your goals of liberation will be issued no apology.
Love Andrew savage' s art.
COLLECTIVISM AND AUTONOMY ARE NOT MUTUALLY EXCLUSIVE!!!
True
Exclusively mutual
lol I love isms and being an ist
@@fitch9782 I love nationalism and being a facist,....
...not ! 🤣🖕
Yes they are
This should be played at every strike in america.
And it seems to me like, lyrically, this guy is like the modern incarnation of Bob Dylan. Got to love a good lyricist.
Socialism and 1970's Dutch football formations, together at last!!!
It's wild, misc. euro football and socialism together, plus punkfunk? Literally my three favourites in one entity.
@@jesserowlingsify I bet you're a fan of Livorno or St. Pauli
Ifkensen _ why wouldn’t we be? St. Pauli is awesome!!!
@@ianwamsley2595 I like hamburg more ngl. One of the few left leaning clubs I adore though is Frankfurt. (I saw a che guevara banner at one of their matches so I'm assuming that they're left leaning. Correct me if I'm wrong)
Ifkensen _ not a bad shout, either of those two. St. Pauli got me because they were stuck in the bottom leagues and had to fight their way up
Now that is brilliant
This bassist is on another level.
Amazing live band, loved!
Holy cow, it's the Dickies crossed with The Godfathers! It's PERFECT!
The drum sound on the intro alone warrants an upvote.
Good job, Parquet Courts!
With the superbowl coming up....the end of the song is very fitting
That's the one. Superb. Great tune, great lyrics. Killing it
The best three things, football, socialism and modern rock
Lads lads lada
Can I tattoo this
On repeat. Thank you
CALCIATORI PANINI
Daniel Cordoni cielo cielo cielo cielo manca

Now this is how you do a lyric video.
killer bass line
Love when bands let the bass player rip
Nice song dudes ! Brazil love you guys
Interesting timing on this one. God bless
I feel like playing FIFA Street 2. A few memories of 2006...
THIS VIDEO IS SOOOO CLEVER
Loving the Ramones vibes on this song!!!
Brilliant!
Best fking song I’ve heard in a while
Yes! Genius idea for video
I don't know how many times I have opened PQ's albums whenever I wouldn't think. I became automatic PQ album opener
Great song! the live version sounds even better!
Is this a track from 1979 that has been dug up from the vaults and retrospectively released or is it a track that sounds like it was made in 1979 and released? Confused.
Johan Cryuff?
RedPugie RIP
Got Cruyff.
You got a Beckenbauer for swaps?
Collectivism and Autonomy sums up the message of this song well as the individuals, such as mentioned in the chorus, make up society which is the group that all works together. Without society, in return these individuals would die out from alienation.
