Hot Snakes - Full Performance (Live on KEXP)

[@rjibieta]

Remembering Rick today. One of the most iconic voices ever in the genre.

[@crazybob75]

RIP Froberg... damn that man had a set of pipes

[@mitsosz.697]

Rest in peace Rick.. true inspiration!

[@swagv]

When the rock music world obsessed about Seattle, all my attention was on San Diego. From Pitchfork to Jehu to RFTC to Hot Snakes, these guys represented the Casbah sound more than anybody. 🔥🔥🔥

[@OIP_1]

god damn RIP rick. thanks for all the music, a true legend.

[@smihilist]

This band grounds me. Every time I’m listening to something a little more traditional or experimental or vintage or modern or whatever, and then I hear this band and I realize this is all I ever need.

[@Jacksmusicshack]

also they're signed to the famous SUB-POP records whom signed nirvana and sunny day real estate among others!

[@swampmagicians4541]

When your grounding requires stomping 💯 👣 🔥

[@pears0094]

RIP Rick… 😕 You will be missed by so many. Thank you for your art. 🙏🏼

[@sadiethreat]

Heartbroken. RIP Rick ❤

[@JimmyWorld]

Will miss you forever Rick.

[@petterstre9354]

RIP Rick Froberg. What a band they were! Legend. So sad.

[@Jacksmusicshack]

The drummer is BY FAR the most underrated out there. Those patterns and style are his own!

[@Silvio_Spina]

He should be Bardo Pond's drummer. Love 'em!

[@philhudson3619]

You guys are cute. Aaron Kitcher

[@joao-vj4wk]

as well as those braids. cool as fuck

[@Jacksmusicshack]

Rest in peace Rick Froberg. We will miss you 😢

[@SolamenteVees]

Thanks, KEXP! It only took me 20+ years to find another band featuring the front-end of Drive Like Jehu.

[@mateus2]

Rest in Powe Rick

[@thadrifter_]

Rick And John. The indie rock Mick and Keith. RIP Rick

[@Paneeks1960]

One of the best bands on the planet and Rick Froberg is an amazing vocalist. I picked up their album 'Jericho Sirens' on vinyl just about a month ago and I have spun it consistently since then. Thank you KEXP and thank you Hot Snakes~ Rob/Boston

[@Lijoje]

Holy crap! I’ll never forgive myself for not finding out about this band until 2021. I’ve been brought back alive from this tedious boredom!

[@CurbBlurbs]

Dude I feel the same way and I saw Rick Frobergs other band OBits in 2013 at kexp.... I felt ashamed I didn’t know... but now we do! And now I need a doctorrrrr!!!!

[@bernierhoades4771]

Try plosivs

[@robertmoser8882]

I just found out today....good hod

[@demonicsweaters]

This is the best shit since Yank Crime! I cannot believe how hard these dudes still rock! Putting in 1000% and it's amazing! I'm so glad these guys a plowing through the shitstorm of 2018 with this real music!

[@andreazibibbio3874]

wish to be an strong uncle like them....

[@gazhazzler1916]

I got Thunder Down Under on my mp3 player, thought I grew out of listening to hardcore punk but these guys are really good. I read about them in 1001 albums to listen to before your die book I've got. They have a much more intricate guitar sound than your standard hardcore punk shit. I really like them.

[@birdy1numnum]

We should all be grateful these guys do NOT sound like that horrible RFTC. yawn.

[@thedinnerdate]

bro, if you thought 2018 was a shitstorm, I'm here from the future with news.

[@SolamenteVees]

It’s like the more accessible side of Jehu; more compact, tighter but just as aggressive.

[@thecareersguy8858]

They should be the biggest band in the world.

[@RockeyeTV]

should be? what else

[@timneumann8515]

Indeed.

[@sadiethreat]

Nah. They’re just for us.

[@CurbBlurbs]

They maybe should be. But I’m lucky to have discovered Obits and hot snakes

[@MrMicalo]

Surely one of the the best performance on KEXP

[@gregsonic]

I mean holy fuck

[@thexplsn3889]

RIP Rick. Will miss this shit hard

[@signalsmidwest3287]

RIP Rick. this is so great.

[@markmckinney7920]

RIP Rick

[@mroc7113]

Just absolutely lethal . Swami/Rick are one of the best guitar tandems I’ve ever come across, certainly for this type of music.

[@chilipismysignature5031]

this fucking rocks. Yank crime is one of my favorite albums ever so I had to see what my boys were up to.

[@hv_fp8372]

15 minutes of Hot Snakes is such a brutal tease.

[@pabloisusi6097]

They remind me a little bit to Wipers. Both bands are great!!

[@seanh3479]

Cool fact - Wipers were a direct inspiration for Hot Snakes! (dat bass lol)

[@steelofcrom]

Is it just me or do the sound engineers just not get enough credit?

[@KevKavanagh]

You totally echoed my thoughts listening to this. Judging by everything I've heard from KEXP over the years, Kevin Suggs is one the best.

[@lemmingbcn]

@@KevKavanagh Everything sounds great. Credit to the engineers and credit to the band!

[@CurbBlurbs]

Great comment man. It needs to be mentioned ! It sounds amazing! It’s outdoors!! Lol how can it sound this right

[@HARwinsOUTagain]

This band gets me so pumped

[@Ben_Mdws]

Saw them in the UK earlier this year and they were awesome.

[@TheSangredegrado]

It’s a shame John doesn’t sing in this group. His voice is super cool. Rocket From The Crypt was some of the best to come out of the 90’s.

[@michaelwtapp]

props to the audio engineer

[@SongMakerNYC]

Pure Healthy American Energy => One Of the BEST Alt-Punk-Whatever BANDS that this land Gifted to US . Love & Respect BROS

[@kbb149]

This is one of the best live recordings ever!

[@future6537]

I cant believe Rick is dead. He is younger then my dad. Told my old man in the car he is lucky to be alive, he should appreciate what he has as a non-creative. apparently pure art has a toll and a price. cant bargain for shit with life.

[@Holden-C.]

Love this

[@EYEROCCO]

GREATEST BAND EEVVER

[@boardforthescraping]

Holy she-it. face melting rock & roll.

[@JorshWarshington1]

Good shit

[@Alpha-soixante]

Oh man, I can't wait to see these guys. Last time I saw Rick and John play together was at a Jehu show. They are still, to this day, top 5 loudest shows I've seen.

[@joelshields8807]

I saw them in March. They straight up slayed.

[@Alpha-soixante]

@@joelshields8807 They cancelled the show I was supposed to go to last year, but I'm seeing them tomorrow night. Sweet!

[@somedude8548]

Coolest band ever.

[@dazzlinggems]

the hot snakes make me want to be a warrior :)

[@perconzzz]

I love them so much

[@mikeybeloved]

REST IN POWER SIR. GOD DAMNIT. DUDE CAN HOWL.

[@cargar62]

awwwhhhh yeahhhhhh look at'em go!!! thank you KEXP!!

[@DenEz_TV]

This band apparently deserves more recognition. Exmerimental punk rock should live! Hot Snakes, thank you guys, for good music!

[@sadiethreat]

Ooooooooooh they really start to givr for Death Doula. 🤤

[@Jacksmusicshack]

Great track!

[@kdsquire99]

Swami is a guitar god

[@PIGBR0THER]

The last album is the best rock action from 2018

[@taylorhanes234]

Jim Lahey on bass

[@babyduck9217]

Taylor Hanes i just pooped my self

[@wisterV]

Bass player looks like Sargent Garfield Wood of the Slo Ponies, Fishwife, & Tanner.

[@sadiethreat]

Hey! Are you Canadian??

[@j2thaC13]

The shitrock winds blew in some tasty shitbass, Ricky.

[@utah8312]

@@wisterV that is correct

[@J3ampyx]

No sabia que estaban en este canal!!! Escuchen.. Si les gusta el hc, punk, noise... Escuchen Drive like jehu

[@nicoib10]

RIP Rick, respects.

[@CurbBlurbs]

I discovered Rick Froberg from his other band The Obits, and their 2012 kexp in studio performance.... man I love how this guy just plays kick ass up tempo rock. I think I like Hot Snakes better than Obits but ask me tomorrow lol

[@arnaudnoar3345]

Encore une bombe musicale!!! Thanks men!!

[@bozosaurus666]

CARBS!!!

[@Rafael-ho1sg]

[@paulburg826]

The first time Ive ever seen a bald dude and thought “he’s cooler than me”

[@JL-mu9sl]

drummer from Bardo Pond

[@Silvio_Spina]

♥️

[@Bertae]

freakin awesome guitar park they got going

[@cangulersonmez8886]

“having another” is a really different song... experimental punk rock felt in my bones in that track..

[@thomasminarchickjr.7355]

This band is just white hot. Rick Froberg is a genius and this band is untouchable. Look at all of the straight people stopping to dig it. Undeniable

[@brianbarrabee2177]

San Diego's BEST, bar NONE!!

[@d_walsh]

Sonic Youth left cells all over.

[@johnmanion6463]

At any given moment he could almost sing, “What in tarnation’s going on right here”

[@deathsave]

The look on that chick's face says it all. RIP RICK!

[@AlReyVida]

Hot snakes and Bubble Gut

They all look like Trevor Philips from GTA V

[@inalavalamp]

Funny, they have a song called "mystic decade" that was in a GTA game

[@ilyayt1]

fuck yeah!!!

[@JaimeCerrada]

Who needs a booster pedal when you can roll up and down the volume pot manually during your solo? Rookies!!

[@gittty]

I thought the same thing haha! But this is also the same guy that hangs his amp head off the neck of his guitar as well sooo

[@adolfoalcocer3841]

No needs any booster.. Really.. Rookies? Haha

[@Fightingfajitas]

Fuck this is gold!
