The middle one is the spitting image of Murdoc from Gorillaz. He looks so spot on accurate relative to the illustrations that I'm a little unnerved.

[@John-wd8be]

Haaaaaa, I've met Saul and told him that. He said he'd been told before surprisingly!

[@zeddy2284]

Ik I guess some ppl only like them cutely animated

[@jaydenlayton4577]

instaBlaster.

[@mrSam3ooo]

Ppl say that but I think Saul looks more like a cartoon character than Murdoc. Murdoc still has all his teeth for instance, and less bags under his eyes

[@yseson_]

Saul looks like he was picked up from a field in midieval england by irresponsible time travellers who offhandedly asked if would he like to be in a band to which he gave a cragged smile said 'yes, yes we would' dropped his scythe then boarded their vessel which looked like a door that had been cut into empty space.

These guys are the best! Serfs Up! is one of the best albums I've heard in years. Thanks Amoeba for getting me on to a new favourite.

[@WinkLinkletter]

New faves to me, too. Hopefully you have already heard Insecure Men, a Saul side album. Super.

Big fan. Despite outward appearances, they certainly know their shit

[@traviswilliams4548]

That John Wayne album is a pure gem.

[@clownnookie]

This is exactly how I want my bands to look: a little bit sick, a little bit manic, and a lot insane. Now if only they could write a whole entire album with that kind of kickass vibe. Fat White Family, We're all counting on you!

[@dylancoates_]

[@louis.c326]

One of the best bands of the 21st century

[@GettingCrunkBrotha]

I can smell them through the video

Yep

[@chinaskibukowski7747]

Khun Narin is legitimately amazing.

Fire of Love is amazing but their comments about Miami deserve rock n roll excommunication

[@Mrbeads]

There’s a stupid filter on this to make them look more washed out, but it’s so obvious because those album covers are way more vivid naturally

'Miami blows 'Fire of Love out of the water.

[@peekayyemm]

I agree lol loveeee the Mother Earth track

[@estebancomulet]

OK I immediately liked them when I saw him pick up Melody Nelson, THEN the fact they liked the gun club. But totally disagree about Miami - IMO a much better album than Fire of love (listen to Carry Home and Mother of Earth - the latter one of the most beautiful songs ever written).

[@Autoluminescentt]

Yeah Miami is a better Gun Club album imo too I can't believe they got away with such Miami slander

[@ogajodapinta]

I am an anti capitalist but sometimes I drink coca cola

[@JB-wo5pe]

monocle and you use KZbin and most technology

[@someonecausticandignorant]

@@JB-wo5pe Everyone likes nice things. Not everyone likes how nice things are being made right now, and some like this commenter and I think these nice things would be nicer if there were a more voluntary process in producing these nice things. Capitalism is simply one means of making nice things, with a lot less actual autonomy or control than it promises through the free-market ideal - you can still like technology, gaming, art, work, healthy & restrained competition, fashion, and other material hobbies and not agree with how these concepts are treated in a capitalist context. Personally, I think nice things would be a lot nicer if we had more of a say in what we wanted than what we could afford/are forced to produce & chose from to meet corporate demands and fulfill profit margins. It's very abstract, impractical, and dehumanizing to be treated like a cog in the machine, just extra steps through taxes & a pseudo-democratic election once every-now-and-again that pretty much goes, no matter what, how the sponsors want it to (at least in America). I'm not a fan of soviet-communism either, because it has the same pitfalls of capitalism, state-centered hierarchies, and a concept of law that more often than not violates the rights & consent of its' people. Make the bread, and you don't need to buy it or wait in line to get it. You simply have to function with other human beings; the complex part is defending your property (which, by the way, is personal property & not private property, private property is when a separate entity owns something that it doesn't use and leases it to the people who would, so the landlords can mooch off of housing costs & you aren't qualified to make modifications to your own property that might be more efficient and less commercially advantageous to the concept of planned obsolescence which is a vital cog in the capitalist machine and how so many people end up homeless) from those who'd steal it and take control away from others out of greed or hatred. This is also why anti-capitalists are often anti-fascist and militantly oppose social hierarchy in most related belief systems. There. Anarcho-syndicalism 101. Now stop pretending we hate technology, rules, & diplomacy and want to enter the dark ages of lawless violence.

Great and interesting choices(Townes Van Zant first is a song-writing classic! + the choices the 3rd guy chose.) but The Gun Club's 'Miami' is a AMAZING album, better than 'Fire Of Love'. Plus, what is wrong with the middle guy? He looks like he hasn't slept in a week and...OHMIGOD-His teeth! Or lack of them> What is it with the British?! Every citizen can get FREE dental care whereas in the USA it's expensive as Fuck! And....The British on the average have the WORST teeth in the world? In clean cut and shiny California he will probably get stopped by the cops regularly.
