Silversun Pickups - Well Thought Out Twinkles (video)

[@shocken90]

One of my favorite songs ever. After 12 years and possibly hundreds of listens it still doesnt get old

[@kawsmade]

*thousands

[@Asterik103]

14 years*

[@taylorphillips5189]

So fucking good

[@TheCoolerChannel]

Yes sir!

[@opheliajade1986]

I k r?

[@FireworkMachineVR]

I am simply not tired of this. 15 years and counting...

[@dbruns3]

I love how different the band members act on stage. The keyboard guy is doing like a '70's keyboardist head bob thing, the bassist is all mellow, singer changes with the mood of the song, and then there's the drummer who's in his own little world just fucking rocking out. amazing.

[@andrewtrader400]

If you wanna be any one..be the drummer

[@dustysavoy6951]

Even better live in concert, I saw them in NY back in 2012 back when they were making good music. The drummer literally looked like the personification of methamphetamine. His head didn't stop rocking for like 2.5-3hrs. His hair was long and it was all over the place, only saw his face for about 2 seconds in all that time

[@IFeelSoTongueTied]

@@dustysavoy6951 I’m pretty sure I was at that show!!! Great times.., miss the pre COVID shows of my past

[@dustysavoy6951]

@@IFeelSoTongueTied no doubt, yeah I can't even recall which part of NY but they were hot on the heels of Neck of The Woods, it was a smaller venue. Packed. Selling shirts and vinyls up front. Brian came right toward the back at the end of the show to mingle with people and take pics. I could have talked to him but I didn't. It was a great show with a great friend who passed the following year....

[@robot_hitcher]

The energy of the drummer really gets me into it.

[@corsica6565]

Cheers to that! The 1-2 repetitive slamming sections are so simple, but so hard-played & somehow became my favorite part of this song.

[@josieomgz]

the melodies in this song are ridiculous!!

[@screamwall]

I can listen to their first three albums... "over and over and over and over and over and over". So good.

[@eraemploymentagencyllc7890]

ME TOO!! I thought I was the only freak who did that, LOL

[@eraemploymentagencyllc7890]

13 years later, yet the song still is an absolute banger that really needs to be in a movie.

[@PlutoKnowsWut]

It's in games like skater XL

[@tseriesfan15]

It was in Hawaii Five-0 a few times, if that counts

[@ALLinALLgood]

i couldn't believe it, i actually heard this song playing in the cali silversun liquor store... man, did that ever set the good mood for the evening. surprisingly i got the clerk to crank it up. .

me too this song is so nostalgic i remember playing the game when i was 10 years old

[@green323turbo]

who ?

[@xXshadowprinceXx]

The bit of indie rock that I am appreciative of being in a Tony Hawk game~

[@hosway1992]

How has it already been 10 years? I remember blasting this my freshman year of high school. Time flies and this still remains as amazing as when my younger ears were first graced by it.

[@aarongamer4975]

lol bro senior year for me. im getting old. great song

[@brianrwilliams5732]

I feel you, man!

[@militia7182]

during my skating days this was the perfect song

[@tru816indo]

Class of 2010!!!!

[@rmbjr60]

I have truly loved this band ever since Carnavas was released. There are many reasons to love them. Tonight I want to praise their amazing drummer Christopher Guanlao - he not only attacks his instrument with unbridled passion and enough energy to put Animal to shame, but he also performs with precision, and a keen sense of what his bandmates are playing. He's truly a drummer's drummer (that's IMO ... although I'm not a drummer). He doesn't play with the complexity of, say, Neil Peart, but oft times all we need is pure energy and emotion. Guanlao delivers on so many levels on this album. I hope he still plays with such amazing passion. I hope to see them live this year. Imagine this song with a so-so drummer. It would be a good song. It would not be a great song. Guanlao's percussion is the *fabric* that this song relies on for its greatness! Not only from his amazing machine gun attacks, but also his amazing cymbal work. It is pure joy to listen to his drumming ... and watch him in action too! btw this is an awesome video!!!

[@cutuptheangels]

I love how their songs go into different songs during the song lol. I used to be walking to the bus stop and be in three different worlds like that was just one song?! Wow

[@joekratman1872]

If you like that style of music, I suggest you dip your toes into the world of prog rock. Some of those songs are like 10-12 songs in one song. King Crimson, Yes, Pink Floyd (Animals especially), Rush, King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard, The Mars Volta, I could go on forever, I love Prog so much

[@cutuptheangels]

@@joekratman1872 I've been listening to those bands for years I agree!! I also recommend thee oh sees! Black angels, octopus project!

[@joekratman1872]

@@cutuptheangels oh good haha, I will definitely check those out thank you!!! (Besides thee oh sees I love them)

[@Matt-zx2ms]

I first heard this song on the radio in 2007 at a job in an industry I now despise. It was also the song to introduce me to Silversun Pickups. This discovery created one of the most memorable days of my time at the job (sad), and led me into a journey of alternative musical appreciation that I am forever grateful for. I heart SSPU and all their musings.

[@lennertcornette]

Funny, same story. Song is always linked to that horrible job.

[@rebaivs189]

And what was that scar situated from afar And what was that light integrated in your mind Now what have you done it's too early for everyone Just wait for that sign spilling over and passed in time Come join in the last hurrah with open sores and open jaw Find one last flaw and keep it safe and free from harm And what have you done it's too early for everyone Just smile go inside come to see there is no sign Now here we are revisiting A time a place a whole industry well we We promise we'll be leaving soon We share apocalyptic views How comforting that we see them Who are we to promise we'll be leaving shortly Come join in the last hurrah with open sores and open jaw And what was that light integrated in your mind And what have you done, it's too early for everyone Just wait for that sign spilling over and over and Over and over and over and over Over and over and over and over Over and over and over and over Over and over and over and over and over and over and

Wow.....I remember seeing this ages ago. First thing I ever heard from them. Was a HUGE Smashing Pumpkins fan back then (still am) and this song definitely tickled that part of my brain....

[@kevinkibble8342]

Same. Sounds uncannily like early Pumpkins.

[@tannerwest6823]

I was just looking through the comments to see if anyone mentioned the smashing pumpkins similarity. I've listened to this song song for 14 years or so and never even realized how much they sound like them til just now

Over and over and over and over♪

Billy Corgan begs to differ. Don't get me wrong, I love Silversun Pickups but the Pumpkins influence is strong in this one.

IMNSHO, Pumpkins disappeared up Billy's bum halfway through Siamese Dream. Now the Pickups aren't as heavy, but they have captured their formerly beautiful dreamy pop side - and developed it, rather than being all stadium n'shit. They're lush and this song is particularly so. Subtlety is what they possess and it's a rare gift.

[@saraheck167]

This band is definitely sonic youth influenced....love it!
