Cog - Bird Of Feather [Official Video]

[@MACHINArebirth]

Being a teenager when this came out amd just the aussie music scene in general was amazing

[@xenophobicalien5571]

I am an american musician who had never heard of Cog untill my band played in Melbourne. We were the opening act for some major international bands. Just before one of the headlining acts was about to go on, I noticed a small group of people leaving the concert. I asked what was going on, and one of them told me that they were going to see Cog, and, recognizing me from the show, invited me to come along. So, I ditched my band during load out to go see them. MY MIND WAS BLOWN!! Been hooked since.

welcome

[@tracymac7428]

My favourite band to photograph.. saw them last night and they still blow my mind

[@Startafnwar]

I only discovered this band a few years ago and they quickly became one of my favorite bands of all time. Where has this been all my life?

[@animalz6709]

They truly are an amazing band!

[@jeffhenrick]

Same as me, discovered this band recently, I think i've discovered by Spotify suggestion

i dont understand why is this band having so less subscribers and reach. the music is amazing man....damm

[@whiteunicornDR659]

Cog, Shihad and The Butterfly Effect were 3 of my fav bands in high school (in the 90’s) and I’m more than pumped to see these bands play at my locals in 2025. At 44 years of age…I’ll feel 17 again, when life was simple and great

[@SpaghettiFPV-tg3qh]

I remember seeing a local band at maroochydore called melodessey and there was a promotion for cog. So i went and seen them at the dirty sands tavern in maroochydore and low and behold the band before them was "dead letter circus" well before they had been discovered. And holy shit what a night, dead letter killed it and cog sounded lile a 5 peice and they are but 3 bogans from bondi.. awesome dudes.

[@SirRamone]

I remember missing this gig because I was underage.

[@SpaghettiFPV-tg3qh]

@@SirRamone for real? Were you from sunny coast? Melodessey was a great band too Local boys i used to know lance and the drummer luke, luke ended up playing for dead letter circus later on

[@AGutteridge1]

Brilliant song, depicting the lead singers hard life and his attempt to "Make things Better" and how he is trapped in society, wanting to be free. Go Cog!

[@gibreel461]

It's about him going on tour and being separated from his family, specifically his daughter.

[@troyrono9957]

I discovered COG with this film clip on Rage years ago. Massive fan since that day ❤

[@lucius4007]

i remember my dad showing me this in year one i remember why i liked it so much now

[@LuciusBorichDrums]

Thanks mate!!!

[@Axisoflords]

This band is so underrated. F*uck I love being an Aussie. Unlike "that other country" our music is real. Karnivool, Bliss n eso, Hilltop Hoods, Art vs Science, Temper trap, Birds of Tokyo...You name it. We're Real =]

[@indobassgear2087]

The realest one for me is karnivool

[@SpaghettiFPV-tg3qh]

Karnivool is fucking insane man That bands timing together is out of this world they change rythyms so much. The drummer goes from syncopated metal to reggae to everything in one song.

[@BohemianButterfly11]

For me it was always my brother.. he looked after me.. Dave has gone again.. when Dave's candle.. etc.. I miss him so much.. ❤

[@LJTEAM0723]

Zero ego with these guys

[@meshndas6789]

Great band love this album

[@matpizzuto123]

i love cog to the max they are like the best band:) aussie band all the way:):)

[@allensaunders449]

the Australian music scene has alot of good bands i am in california and i keep finding quality try sleep parade or, sydonia, the butterfly effect i think they are all Australian they are all good

[@SpaghettiFPV-tg3qh]

Yea brother Try dead letter circus as well they are aussie great band I seen butterfly effect early on in brisbane when they were first starting out, amazing voice live

[@MikeySkiy]

Just by looking and listening to Lucius plays the drums you could tell he is talented. I mean, just listen to the drummers in the mainstream bands. All they do is create simple beats and that gets them enough attention from millions of people. Lucius probably works his ass off to try to satisfy a small group of people. Nonetheless, it is good to see, and great to hear!

[@snipershot35]

i liike this song alot, iv been lisning to this i beleve about a month after it was put up on here, i heard of them before hand in like 2006 or somthing because of a friend. i never get old of this song

[@Emma1ouise]

This song, it's gotten me through so much. I cannot wait until we see you guys again in Newy this month! I'll be hiding in the back somewhere belting out all the songs until I loose my voice!!!

[@eelsnleeds5]

fucking gold COG

[@Rosehawka]

Isn't it enough that you all like COG?, Why complain about how they are not outrageously famous when u kno and love them as they are? Anyway, give them a few years, and they probably will rise in some way through the industry, with music like that.

[@Hallumi]

omg - you guys are a HUGE part of my live music awakening down at MS Fest in Tassie years and years ago! Come to Darwin, you guys would be loved up here!!!! :) x

[@AaronKoskelainenBass]

So awesome band!!

[@13dirty666]

what are people talking about, flynn said himself that the song was for his wife as a sort of an apology for being always away. In my opinion this is Cogs best

[@jaimeflores6922]

Amazing band, I heard them from Monterrey Mx, they are one of my 4 favorites contemporanian prog rock bands from Australia, sorry for they separation... cheers

[@moosecat82]

fuck i miss these guys

[@saneman13]

From the first moment I heard these bogans I made sure every single one of my mates was exposed to the cog virus. So after 13 or so years i have left a trail of cases of incurable Cog obsession over three states. At this stage there is no cure I'm happy to say.

[@dianasendt9509]

Love your work dude

[@DanAnimation2GameVault]

COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOG

[@merrieprankster]

@AGutteridge1 Not quite. This album was recorded in America, and Cog are from Australia. He's talking about the emotional impact of working away from family and friends.

[@0The0Web0]

great song, nice clip!

[@ourbrokenwalls]

@Rosehawka They're dvd they just released is number one on Aria dvd charts o.O . you make a good point sir. well done... im seeing them next friday.. so geedddddd

[@sourabhbhattacharyaYT]

nice song

[@WeLoveDaHerb]

I swear I saw this video on Scuzz o.O or I must have dreamt it.. Unless this music video looks similar to another one.

[@chrispiko202]

you guys rock

[@cawkanos]

Boy o Boy, ole mate on the skins learned his chops from John Stanier.

[@yvonnewilson2242]

Does anyone know the lyrics being sung in the background of the final chorus? I hear the word "sacrifice" but before and after that it's jumbled. Ive looked all over the internet but it seems no one has any lyrics available for that part.

[@joshmoore4373]

I came to the comments to see if anyone made a comparison to incubus. Not only the sound of the music but the video is something incubus would do

[@Trigg-Trigg]

Its nice to know some people's minds are open hard to know these days

really annoying getting that american band "course of nature" mixed up with this :S

[@cheesytacokitty9506]

Great, blocked in my country on Soundcloud, I hate America

[@sirstrobie2436]

sounds like every other band out today. the lyrics are much more in depth though, i will give it that. but the comment about the extremely talented and rare drummer, is either false or australia REALLY needs to learn to play drums

[@KingdomOfApple]

Don't judge them on one song. The rest of their stuff is very diverse, and not at all generic. Also, the drummer is actually quite incredible. Once again, you're judging them off one song. Don't do that; it makes you look stupid.

[@sirstrobie2436]

Lol, okay buddy. First of all i did look at a few of their other videos, even the singers new project. So whos stupid now? Ever heard of Mike Portnoit from Dream Theatre? Thata what a talented drummer sounds like, not a rythm drummer. Thats also what a truly talented band sounds like. Not Puddle Of Mud or whatever Nickelback wannabe band this is...

[@KingdomOfApple]

Sir Strobie I'm sure Lucius would give Portnoit a run for his money. Have you seen him live? And comparing Cog to Nickelback? Yeah. You're still stupid...

[@sirstrobie2436]

Sorry idiot but not everybody likes the same commercial b.s. that you do. And you OBVIOUSLY have no idea who portnoit is. Looking for some of your boyfriends drum solos and dont see any... Huh, must be he isnt good enough to be recognized that well...

[@KingdomOfApple]

Sir Strobie Good talk, man, but I don't like stooping to such a moronic level as you've done. Plus I'm sure you've got other songs on YT to go troll on, so I'll let you carry on your way.

[@GuyC7]

What is wrong with capitalism?
