[@sarahdawson5254]

When I first heard July Talk, I pictured a big lumberjack type guy with a kickass beard. This was surprising

[@specialkoz569]

Took the words right outta my mouth!

[@laurenceclaveau7286]

i thought he would be much older alsoéé was kinda imagining a ZZtop guys :')

[@gui_alves4212]

I thought he was i big black man, something like Mike Clarke Duncan hahaha

[@SleepQueen90]

Yeah I thought so too. It's kind of as surprising as the dude from the animals who sings house of the rising sun. It's like, oh....ok cool LOL

[@dannysee1]

I thought it was Tom Waits son

[@ylekiote99999]

Soon this band will be really famous and the lead singer will be able to afford more shirts.

[@MiguelGarcia-ul3bi]

Saw him yesterday in denver had the same shirt on lmao

[@chicagobullsfan03]

@@MiguelGarcia-ul3bi saw them today. Same t shirt and now a buzz cut

[@suziequzie]

Nah, I like the shirt - it's a good look for him.

[@nuttynut54]

Seen this band last nite and he was wearing the same shirt So they cant be that famous yet .. but a rocking band for sure

[@OgreProgrammer]

But he won't, he'll just own more of them. And buy really expensive ketchups.

[@julie1507]

65 yrs old this week heard group news yrs on tv broadcast ,,I’m hooked ,,excellent voices on both singers

[@lauriebriscoe6983]

Me too same age same lovve4e

[@Suzycue176]

Heard this for the the first time on CBC Radio of all places. They both have wonderful voices. Canadian bands such as this don't get enough recognition and support IMO.

[@sethhowell8036]

Accidentally saw them live, front and center, at Edgefest one year. Best mistake ever, best live performance ever. Such an incredible band.

[@heathermartin6961]

Lucky ❤

[@brucemaclean241]

I'm 62, been a music addict for 50 of those years...and I find them quite appealing. Sure, both their voices are basically borderline weird ( I'd describe him as a young Cohen crossed with a Waits who didn't gargle quite so much Drano ), but I love the way they work together, and it's got the type of tempo I've always loved....so there.

[@HavocAlive]

+Bruce MacLean you look great for 62!

[@chubbycrow]

+Ronan Greenwood his last name isnt MacLEAN for nothin!

[@bethm5852]

+chubbycrow xD

[@doom2urlife303]

+Bruce MacLean their style reminds me of the "i'm a barbie girl" song style. Forget who sang that tho

[@bethm5852]

doom2urlife I think it was something like "Aqua" have no idea though....

[@mcthirsty69]

this is the best music discovery I've made in a long time!!! And they're Canadian! ! Rock On!!

[@voyajah]

Some of the greatest musicians are Canadian. :)

[@WhiteRabbit5244]

Hell yeah! ..eh? :)

[@redemptionwins]

Shame about beiber

[@songbirdandthenest]

gail mcphail yes!!

[@1k_eggsshort_egg682]

Canadians ROCK.....🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦 I'm Proud to be a Canadian.

[@EmilianaKostova]

Anyone else love Peter and Leah's interactions? Like some weird "beauty and the beast", loyalty and love thing. She always seems to be shoving him in the face and shit and he keeps coming back and staring at her like she's his next meal/ lover. And then she calms him down. It's kind of a bit weird but very cool.

[@troywhitford9772]

What a relationship they must have . Reminds me of a recent relationship with a great woman . " We can work it out " !

[@rachelrachel9152]

Yeah im sure they're acting/exaggerating for their videos/performances but boy does it make for a powerful viewing experience

[@tochirov]

@@rachelrachel9152 they do this same performance on stage too. I saw them in KC in 2019 there was definitely this weird Dom/Sub Rejection display dynamic going on between them, it was fun to watch, amazing concert. It makes their chemistry really interesting. the sets were ... July Talk followed by Metric

[@walksalot_talksalot]

@@tochirov Two of my all-time favorite bands. Super envious of you

[@OgreProgrammer]

@@tochirov Yeah, sub/dom, but if she gives him an inch, he takes a mile.

[@westcoastsmoke]

That moment you're driving and listening to the radio and you have to scramble to your phone and try to shazam the song before it ends without crashing. Don't think i ever would have found it otherwise. Great song.

[@19CPK86]

I would recommend the app sound hound for you, my buddy

[@kampsman]

This song makes me also scramble...for the power button to save my ears from this garbage

[@heychrischiasson]

Alexander Kamps Why would you seek out the music video if you don't like it then?

[@kampsman]

Someone sent me the link to listen to it. I was annoyed and took it out on the song...which I do not enjoy. I guess I am just another internet troll...what have I become?!

[@OgreProgrammer]

That's how I found them too, almost. I was coming home from hiking in Jasper, "The Garden" played, and I had no cell phone signal. Or pen and paper for the lyrics.

[@laika6661]

These guys are Canadian. They rock. I like their song Let Her Know and Paper Girl!

[@philippebeauchamp2827]

Nobody asked the question yet, but who the hell thought of that amazing videoclip? How many visual effects were made in post? I mean, it looks like a one single take. I guess the background/stage had mechanical stuff to trick the staging. It is technically a brilliant videoclip. The band is amazing of course, but the clip itself just made my jaw dropped.

[@goodmombadmom9013]

They dip to black all over the place to allow for cuts!

[@bradymcdonald1426]

Though they do dip to black the only time that could hide a cut is at 2:02. The start/finish is about the 3:05 mark. As the camera zooms to a closeup of the male vocalist the drum set behind him is unoccupied and mostly hidden, but as he continues to sing you can see one of the high hats close. The camera than begins to zoom out, the drum is now occupied and the two guitars and female vocalist come crashing into scene.

[@RaychelChisholm]

I absolutely am in love with this song. Its the first song to evoke emotion from me since Johnny Cash covered "Hurt".

[@RaychelChisholm]

i love their vintage vibe

[@francois-xavierlatendresse5343]

You sure don't listen to a lot of new music then... Don't get me wrong Cash's cover of ''Hurt'' was beautiful but this is pretty basic.

[@drbubbles007]

Raychel Chisholm I love his voice!

[@xXmissginelleXx]

I love the way he looks at her when he sings

[@ciarac1779]

the 'and when' at 3:08 .. chills, every time!

[@CanadianMaid]

Congratulations July Talk on winning the Juno for Alternative Album of the Year! You deserve it!

[@HollowInn]

From 0:56 to 1:25 Her voice and that keyboard are godly together.

[@rikbalbin]

I don't know much about July Talk, except there the best band i heard in a while....let the criticism come, i don't give a shit.....July Talk, you guys are phenomenal, hope you guys come to northern California soon!

[@someguy6693]

Yeah! Fuck America!

[@sarahferet9068]

3:09 that "when". It gets me every time.

[@lisahall2577]

This song is wildly great .Played soo much on 97.7 fm in Canada .Suddenly more popular!! 👍

[@urdad3627]

Man this song helped me through some shit. My body literally shook and I couldn't sleep when I wasn't around that one person. Don't know how I got like that but his lyrics got me when I heard them and couldn't stop listening to them after the first time. I lived through these lyrics

[@stockloc]

Ermac aka cucumber slice That was me last year when this song came out. Glad it helped someone else out as well.

[@urdad3627]

I +1 your comment bro

[@Lazyhoboguy]

This is my favorite song of theirs.

[@Silver_Sun5]

This video shook me to my core. Seeing the emotion in the actions combined with the lyrics was so intense. It made me feel it in a whole different way. Well done!

[@kevinmarlatt4369]

their voices couldn't be any more different. it shows opposites attract as they lead into beautiful melodic harmonies together. Without each other i wouldn't be a listener

[@lukegallagher1392]

absolutely love these guys. such different voices that work great together. Are these two together? the way he looks at her is so lovingly!

[@WinningSidekick]

I feel like it's just their characters, at least in this video.

[@jimlahey8210]

This band rocks, the live show does not disappoint.

[@janinecat1865]

His voice is just one modulated dry-throated hung-over groan and I love it.

[@Cana-Dave]

These guys are friggen awesome, the local radio station only started playing this song a few weeks ago, I thought it was new. I'm 58 years old, Canadian and I am still blown away from the amazing hidden talent i still get to discover that we have in this great country

[@HorsepowerAddicted]

There is something about this song that hooks you solid. Love it.

[@_ravanys]

This is the first song I saw in a KZbin ad that I legitimately enjoyed, I listen to it every time it comes up.

[@evakoyanagi1812]

Omg can't get enough of peter and leah's voice, thJuly Talk are one of the best artists from TORONTO 😻

[@laraanderson9753]

Peter is from Edmonton

[@bmorrison5340]

Wicked!! A dichotomy between light and dark, indifference and bias, aggression and humility, beauty and the beast. The attention to detail in the cinematography of this video is amazing. Watched it several times and I still keep finding subtleties I missed. Hope to see more of this caliber from these guys. Intelligent, brilliant

[@Spvceman_]

Thank youuuu the only person I seen say something about the video having a deeper meaning 🙏🏾

[@bradmichaud4811]

i like how the start and end are exactly the same, but how you saw them are completely different. it's hard to forget that he/she is there after everything

[@jrreogreugerugregreger7486]

I love their sound. It's like a perfect mix between Everlast and Metric. Throw some Lights in there too. Fucking amazing music right here.

[@allmightydelight]

You couldn't have said it any better.

[@tochirov]

July Talk and Metric were touring together last year.. it was an epic concert.

[@skrtreynolds]

Why does this dude sound like a lumberjack but look like Steve Buscemi? The fuck, logic.

[@nissan350z2010]

Why do you look like a doge but talk like a human? Logic.

[@dropdead731]

Kenny Nagasaki hahahhahahahha

[@AbigailHonestly]

Okay... Now I Want to See Steve Buscemi Try To Sing This Metal Bad Assery!

[@TheJJDaily]

Woaw that guy looks like Steve Buschemi

[@AaronFruman]

Nailed it.

[@FeralColin]

Combined with johnny knoxville

[@christina3115]

That's the first thing I said when I saw him too. :p

[@Narukai12]

and dane dehaan! from chronicle

[@Wrathofgod004]

Eric Nguyen hahahahaha thats what my sister said too hahaha but she said from Spiderman

[@briancook1433]

I love this band! They are the best band from Canada ! can't wait till they come to Victoria

[@UnknownAz]

They are so cool live! The way they interact on stage and w/ the audience is awesome!

[@manneredmonkey]

I cannot find a band like this for the life of me. Been looking for similar sounding groups since the album came out, and nothing. Please make more music.

[@robertjames5620]

One of the Best Shows at 2016 ACL Music Festival - Loved Them.

[@TheKarebear666]

I just saw them live last night in Victoria! When this song came on the whole entire bar was singing it! Totally recommend this live :)

[@rstelboum]

This one of the smartest video's I've ever seen. And I absolutely love this song. His voice is fantastic and her voice is the perfect counterpoint.

[@6James6Villy6]

[Skit] [Verse 1] My guns and ammunition Do very different things If you're looking for tradition I'm castling my king When I think about you My whole world falls in [Hook] Woo hoo hoo! [Verse 2] Guns and ammunition Make bullets out of you You speak dynamic diction And I see right through that too When I think about you My whole world falls through [Hook] x7 When you find your keys I stole your eyes When we find her in her pencil skirt, surprise You take my body as your prize [Hook] [Bridge] When you leave I cannot sleep And when you leave my body shakes and When you leave I cannot sleep And when you leave my body shakes and When you leave I cannot sleep And when you leave my body shakes and When you leave I cannot sleep And when you leave my body shakes and When you leave I cannot sleep And when you leave my body shakes and When you leave I cannot sleep And when you leave my body shakes and When you leave I cannot sleep And when you leave my body shakes and [Skit]

[@markdemers735]

I feel like I was just let into a secret club a week ago.. till then I'd never hear of July Talk.. and since, I've seen them, met them and can't stop watching all their videos.. how is this band not had an international Breakout yet? it's got to happen.. they are so good.. like really really good..

[@dennisschrecengast5050]

Living in Northern NY, loved 89.9 The Drive for alternative music out of Kingston, ON where I heard July Talk the 1st time. Shocked to hear country music one day. So, 89.9% Canadian music artists suck, but rank July Talk right up there with Depeche Mode, New Order ....... Miss them all on The Drive

[@awo4life621]

This song has made it into heavy rotation on my everyday playlist, f**king love this song!

[@Nicolified]

This song needs to get more recognition

[@Steelehl]

Saw them live in Edmonton at the Pawn Shop this past Thursday. Awesome live performance, guys voice is 100% real.

[@aliciabreanna]

Before I ever watched this to see what the lead singer looks like, I totally pictured him as a big bad bearded hells angels biker or something. That voice...

[@Suruba237]

Is it just me, or do we have the same mind? That's exactly what I thought, too

[@linuxjon]

Heard Guns and Ammunition on the radio and was captivated. The song is amazing. So I checked out their video on youtube. Watching them craft this song is even more enthralling. While watching them I'm trying to figure out where they are from. The singer really does sound like Tom Waits but the group must be from somewhere exotic. Well kind of . They are from Toronto. I'm blown away. Another Canadian group that I can add to my double thumbs up list. The Wikipedia article is inspirational.

[@AaroneousMaximus]

Canada has the best bands.

[@saeedsaze]

Lots of great bands playing in rock bars in DT Toronto.

[@bbaire5754]

The second I heard his voice I was in love instantly.

[@peoplemcnuggetz]

I like his voice in darker songs. Like Bad Moon Rising. I really do love his voice.

[@dreadlockdude85park73]

Canadian music.... I love you guys! Keep it up

[@geebos1]

How hasn't this band blown up the nation yet?

[@Saimeren]

I really couldn't picture this guy as the voice of the band. He looks completely opposite of what I was imagining.

[@m.c.9991]

I love the passion between these two.

[@Naataashaa7]

I'm trying to study for finals but I keep watching their videos instead. They are so good.

[@maxlinskey290]

They both have the best facial expressions, alone and when interacting with each other. Dynamite dynamic.

[@teiganmitchell1405]

Seen them last night at catfish! So amazing live, both vocally and their stage presence is phenomenal

[@jeremywiens3184]

Just heard this band on the radio and love it didn't realize they have been around this long. His voice is amazing even the wife loves it

[@ibogasoulshamanichealing3772]

We are 110% solid fans as of this song two days ago. Vancouver tickets booked and our family is loving life dancing around to #JulyTalk in our mountain living room

[@pinkcasket]

GOD THEY SOUND EVEN BETTER LIVE ITS AMAZING

[@sexpistolsuepistol7593]

I absolutely DIG this group!!! Peter's voice OMG rawrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr......Leah's is a perfect clear contrast to his sexy growl!!!

[@AimlessAmoeba]

Saw July Talk last night at the Bronson Centre and they're my favorite new band now. What an amazing live act.

[@0AnotherDayFalls0]

How do you not love this angelic voice vs a raspy voice? Beautiful conflict.

[@samanthablair18]

that man's voice though 😍😍👌👌

[@xaniclopez1483]

Just saw them last night, They put on a great show and have so much energy. Met them as well; they're humble and very pleasant to meet.

[@laraanderson9753]

Love this song so much I can’t get it out of my head! I went to highschool with Peter :)

[@puskov3]

Saw these guys live and I can't stress how amazing it was; such an intimate gig and I enjoyed every second. His voice is out of this world and hers too - they have such good chemistry it makes the whole thing run well. It's not just their music, but the show they put on with it. Obsessed with these guys!

[@dwightprice7709]

amazing vocalists in this band and the guys on guitar and keyboard are killing it i feel their passion see their drive their so unique their music sounds so fresh makes me wanna headbang again thank you july talk

[@michellegbruce]

Yikes! Genius! I snagged 2 three day pass to Shaky Knees Fest in May! I bought to FAN my The 1975 but I clearly see now God is lovin on me! We'll be in the crowd !!!! We'll be the unique couple! (60&65!) livin hard and fun

[@LeafySuperior]

his voice is so deep and raspy and her's is so clean and high and it works perfectly

[@screenreadverified6204]

Lola is so freaking Beautiful and the duet couldn't have made this band a better match. Her Voice is like Honey and his voice is like Whisky. :]

[@frottlemi5301]

His voice is like an angel touched his lips

[@dcyphyr]

A fallen angel.

[@nagi101]

Totally not what I expected the guy to look like. I'm addicted to this band..

[@paulsaucier8500]

SO proud to say there ARE other artists from Toronto here who AREN'T the Weekend or Drake though I love them as well.

[@EthanLaman]

The Biography section on July Talk's Wikipedia Page was written by an angel.

[@fuckuwhore01]

July talk. Give me more. Such a good band

[@steele222]

Awesome song, they just played at my cousins wedding and they were great. Now I have my 16 year listening to it.

[@inkblotz1218]

There was a KZbin ad with these guys going around for a little while now, and I just finally got myself over here ... I really like their sound! They definitely deserve to be really big! They've got a neat sound.

[@twoblackrabbits]

Josh's head shave looks good on him. Like reeeally good on him.

[@superflyguy218]

The bass player looks like he should be singing with that voice!

[@yeahoriginal]

3:08. That lil hair flip. I love it.

[@dmcadoo]

These guys were by far the best act at the xfest in Calgary last weekend. The other so-called A-list bands weren't even a close 2nd. JT put on such a kick ass, funny and bewilderingly charismatic live show. Top notch!!

[@rawxelda7849]

Just found this band a day or two ago and I've probably listened to each of their songs 10 times already. So pumped about finding them!

[@cag123deaner1]

God is she the cutest. Nice gruff voice on him. I can mimic this song to perfection.

[@mrnieto1894]

This song is amazing

[@RobynRissa]

I love this song. I love this band.

[@per2]

just found these guys and have to say they are on top ten list for this year for me :) they are awesome

[@Tropicshores]

Very Very Impressive voice, This guy has a grimiest , manliest voice on earth. And the fact that he looks so young makes it even more impressive. Pure Talent

[@tyrantmind]

Love the style of everything and my god her voice sounds so cool.

[@llovemyllife]

I swear this guy sings on Phineas and Ferb.

[@fishbackmusic]

So inspired now!!! Yes to some awesome local music...we need this wicked new sound...So GooD

[@tyleradair5022]

I have never heard of this band before and recently just started getting back into listening to the radio, still way to many commercials. But aside from that, awesome tune and glad I was listening at the time I was. Plus not knowing who this band was, all I could picture was Everlast and Emily Haines. Dudes got a great voice and so does that girl.

[@blade568]

I love the way it loops, but can you please release a version of this with a few of them seamlessly right after each other? It's irritating when I'm trying to listen to this 50 times in a row to have to go back to the start. I'm not joking.

[@Spiffytastic]

www.replaykzbin.info/www/bejne/n4aYoqNjmKanhbc there you go, just set where it plays from and where it ends. At this point your basically a DJ...

[@A2Z11tree]

Can't wait to see them for the third time in less than half a year, they put on an amazing show.

[@MeMyselfandThatGuy]

This is the first time I've really paid attention to the guitarist/backing singer at 2:43 but wow his voice is actually really good!

[@A2Z11tree]

First song I've ever heard by these guys and I already know I'm going to absolutely love them! Can't wait for the Wolfe Island Music Festival!!

[@elizaks4]

just saw them in concert a few hours ago! still so happy!!

[@roxywilliams5396]

I just saw them and they were awesome I agree. They're so cool performing too.

[@laurendemuccio]

[@foulenglish2553]

July Talk are just the “dark gritty reboot” of Crash Test Dummies.
