Screaming Headless Torsos (Smile in a Wave)

[@oscarpalaciosruiz]

The best SHT lineup. I saw them in Mexico City some ten (!) years ago. They had a different lineup, but it was absolutely wonderful. Best gig in my life, really. They played for more than two hours in a small place and I couldn't stop dancing and jumping! After the show they mingled with all of us and gosh these guys were incredibly nice! Love em forever

[@ImJustStandingHere]

So true, once they lost Dean Bowman it started going downhill :(

[@くずはらこうじ]

もう活動してないんかな・・・。めっちゃカッコよかった。

[@Auntkekebaby]

I band when Dean was the singer was 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 live! 90s FIRE!! I was at most NYC concerts singing all the words in the front

[@VincenzoIcastico]

WHY THE HELL NO ONE KNOWS THIS FUCKING GENIUS!

[@basslobster]

Their best lineup. Totally insane.

[@mglaser6811]

Yea...great drum and perc.work at the beginning...absolutely great master piece this song...teamwork...that's it 💪👍👍👍

[@23Redspecial]

Jesus 11 years?! I remember being extremely influenced by this song in 2008 when i was 16/17.

[@christopherdebo8691]

Shush. I was 35 in 08.

[@ImJustStandingHere]

Lol it came out in '95

[@23Redspecial]

lol i was referring to this specific version that was posted,obviously . I actually cant listen to the original, because this is the original to me@@ImJustStandingHere

[@OM210]

That percussion player is tearing it UP!

[@gabrielenriquer6f]

Fima is the man! Unsung (or rather unshown) hero!

[@meshuggoh]

Great musicians!!!! thanks for posting this song, is one of my favourites!!! Cheers!

[@MrBostonrobb]

Absolutely outrageous!

[@Phrank_Trappa]

@Jordainio The drummer on the studio version is JoJo Mayer

[@19gastonazo70]

GRACIAS. MUCHAS GRACIAS.

[@melaniekleyn8434]

Awesome rhythm section...

[@franciscorevuelta]

Melanie Kleyn with the horrible guitar solo, it's a waste

[@Elixear]

+Francisco Revuelta Encore un qui connait la musique tu vas voir lol...

[@nealgoldberg8624]

Yeah man, you know your ears are just used to that pop crap I guess...

[@Elixear]

Ha ha ha !

[@DEFIB7]

Francisco Revuelta It’s spelled “fantastic.”

[@reinakerosene]

I saw them yesterday on Jazz al parque here in Colombia and this song rocks the crows is awesome and energy love it

[@andreaprodan5616]

Listened to these guys in '97 in Argentina (where they have a cult following). Energy!!!

[@santiporreca]

Sabía que habían venido por el 2013 y en esos años que tocaban en AMBA, pero vinieron en el 97 también? Con la formación de Dean Bowman? Terrible

[@Fededrums25]

me encantan! son re locas sus canciones!! Les pasan el trapo a muchos!! Muy musicales y virtuosos!!

[@vajrapani6474]

Now that was different... We are impressed.

[@plabentos]

[@boxie8914]

Oh my god, crazy drums bruh

[@dropclutch1]

Damn! This is my first time being introduced to these guys (introduced by another great band of the scene Yolk). Not gonna lie, at first all I could think is Terry Crews sure can front a band lol. This is badass!

[@paulatmuniz]

Que loucura esse som!!! E eu só descubro 20 anos depois! :O

[@ClaudioEscouto]

antes tarde do que nunca,,,,, :-) enjoy your self !

[@fluidociego5550]

Miles davis play that song?

[@EraseAllMemory]

these guys are seriously so bad ass - it's crazy! Wow! If musicians made money based on talent & ability, these guys would be billionaires! Pathetic crap that mass populous buys is disgusting. These guys are amazing!

[@owlcu]

Wow, these guys are great! Their name scared me away for so long but no more.

[@jobvindex]

My head has just exploded, too much "awesomeness"

[@leolozada1365]

When the tiny desk!?

[@DrCaesarsPalace_MD]

The bass player is NOT prominant enough in this band...he is amazing!

[@rudisson]

I do!! And Visite their Gigs in Europe! Dave is awesome guy, you Can be his Friend After the gig in the bar!!

[@Gregyz]

So Groovy !

[@RobertoGinsburg]

*The NEW "DEFUNKT"?* Amazing Speed heavy Funk band

[@daniellllll45419]

Great Band !!!!.

[@GigiPeluzza]

Just got tickets to see them in Mexico. It's going to be amazing!!!!!!

[@Mijorra]

That singer can sing.

[@TheRealTommyRock]

torsos is dope!

[@arenkk]

Masters, it would be a good word to define them.

[@kotaboner42]

more people need to know about this band

[@youngun550]

wow at the percussion!

[@kuromame0904]

excellent!

[@wailflower]

Hey Guy! Thanks for watching. Are you watching? Did you notice the bass player? No. Because he is behind the percussionist. Got a clue yet? Why is the percussionist on the gig? To make the singer's work more difficult than necessary of course. The rhythm is established with Gene the drummer. Again thanks for watching.

[@8varium5]

So this is how Zappa would've sounded if he'd tried out latin music... Amazing.

[@RobertoGinsburg]

Is Free Funk

[@a.nobodys.nobody]

I mean... Cleetus Awreetus-Awrightus sounds latin

[@zakcattack]

It is Miles, but a line from his song "Right Off" as Bozir was nice enough to point out

[@wailflower]

I'd love to hear your work one day.

[@Phrank_Trappa]

"You don't have a clue, fella" ROFL!!!

[@Phrank_Trappa]

I agree that what you were doing was miraculous. That is some of the baddest ass singing I've ever heard.

[@jussy995]

holy fuck, thats tight

[@youkids123]

This is AMAZING!

[@nathanfisher4452]

Wow.... just wow.

[@_BlazingRush]

Wu-tang shirt. Dang.

[@a.nobodys.nobody]

Dang??

[@mesaman1970]

Fist heard this in 96 or 97. love it. The guys shooting the video have their heads up their asses though, you don't cut back to the rythm section while a solo is being played.

[@ailuznewken]

Amooooo 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽

[@JorgeMathias]

Awesome!!!!!!

[@skoneloke]

I think I saw the singer working at foot locker the other day!

[@Guitfiddlejase]

This is out of fucking control! Has Miles heard this!!??

[@WUTANGJEK]

Funkcore yeah

[@sherman9009]

1:19 omg the harmony the vocalist hits is epic

[@anfoteromax]

AGUANTEN LOS TORSOOOOOOOOOOOOOSSSSSS que banda por dios!

[@wailflower]

What you say, and I appreciate it, does not deal with the simple fact: the percussionist belongs on the guest list, not between the singer and the bass player. Why is he there? To do what he is doing, which is to make the singer's job harder.

[@MrGreenthumb_]

@Jordainio i think that this drummer is gene lake

[@Phrank_Trappa]

Interesting definition of noise.

[@aliensporebomb]

Ass kicking performance. Great guitar solo too.

[@zhantyy]

HOLY SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@neo4reals]

no he's not your equal he's apparently superior in musical knowlege

[@dankgeetar]

im digging the vocalist the most. hear him harmonize those guitar lines at 1:20? crazy

[@ivanfauvess]

Alguien sabe el nombre del percusionista?

[@sebm89]

I love cow bell! Fucking awesome prefomance!

[@DoctorRockit]

Davvero forti!!!!

[@ceal105]

omg the guy on the congas rocks!

[@mesaman1970]

Screaming headless torso is a jazz funk fusion band.. They're not a pop band.. People who know the difference are their fans

[@meekrob]

I got a fevah! And the only prescription... is more... cowbell!

[@hammerjohnston]

That fill is epic

[@tylercjbradshaw]

anyone know what kind of drum heads Gene is using here?

[@Phrank_Trappa]

Well I can't argue with your perception of the song, but I think it sounds great. The vocals, the percussion, and the guitar. Even if you think they are all dicks. The SHT disc is one of my most prized possessions. I guess that's why they say you should never meet your idols. It can only lead to disappointment. Most of my favorite bands hate each other so this is not a surprise to me. Shit my band mates don't ever really like each other lol...

[@ldavidrs]

There's Dr. Taub playing the congas

[@platoquemado]

💕🤣🤘✊

[@ledzelda9]

damn, pretty unique sounding

[@wailflower]

AMEN!

Mahavishnu Orchestra reference right at the end

The main riff sounds so familiar, I swear I've heard it before

[@wolfgangfricke8555]

zakcattack it’s a miles davis tune

[@joelfortin6634]

@@wolfgangfricke8555 isnt it the noonward race by mahavishnu orchestra?

[@vBlogmiscarrage]

4:54 funny vocal noise. ROFLROFLROFL

[@JordanHowellMusic]

Yo video poster, this ones for you. Thank you for this!!!!! And secondly, do you have the album version of this song? The thing that Jojo does at the end where he hits five different cymbals in about 1.5 seconds...anyway its freaking crazy and Im wondering where I can find transcriptions for some of this stuff, especially those drum parts. thanks!

[@marcelasanchez7206]

Whats that name of this version drummer?

[@marcelasanchez7206]

Jojo blow our mind'$ jajaj freakin 5'$

[@JordanHowellMusic]

@@marcelasanchez7206yo I’m sorry I never saw your comment! If you ever see this still, the drummer here is named Gene Lake. Another great choice but different style for this band.pretty sure Jojo Mayer wasn’t available to tour with them much at all after their first recording so they got Gene on in their next years of shows and their second CD I believe is live one with him on drums. Cheers from Philadelphia !

[@irmacontreras1735]

fucking crazy

[@JordanHowellMusic]

@brokeandhungryxx Yeah I know, and he kills it too...but I meant about the drummer on the studio version of this song...

[@southaustinbrass101]

@mesaman1970 Normally I would agree but with that rhythm section I think it's ok ;)

Holy sh*t.
