I used to love this 2 years ago! Awesome song. Awesome band.

[@powerlinemisfortune]

RIP Sam Mehran. Talented individual. You'll be missed.

[@willman85]

It's been ten years ... when do we get a reunion?

[@jackmanoffical]

hard to believe that blood orange/dev hynes was in this band

[@frankieashworth6942]

but the guitar is really good

[@alan6]

it's not hard at all

[@jamesgkrk]

It's harder to believe Dev after this and Lightspeed evolved to Blood Orange

[@TL8311-j6x]

june h yeah the dudes a total phony

[@Suziemartin]

Was talking about their gig in 2005 when I was 14 like it was yesterday until I realised it was 6 years ago ! time flies

[@tremak12]

The beginning build up to the singing was amazing kicks in at a perfect time

[@WAAAAAAAAAAAY]

this is my fav tune of theirs. the Test Icicles band invented nu-rave. I bought their album and I remember when I first listened to it I thought I was going to either go deaf or have a mental breakdown.

[@jonathanj5728]

His singing actually made this song better, there just something about the style is cool.

[@m-tetsuo]

Proud of Dev where he is now, but this is still my favorite project

[@anickday]

This is one of the best songs... Ever.

[@Pokegod6911]

This still rules

[@TheRavingRobot]

totally in love with this songggg.

[@Nikmetal]

Test Icicles will always be the best band ever!! R.I.P!! :) p.s. Rodolphefleury, Rory is in another band by the way (if you didn't know), they are called Kasms!! check them out on myspace :)

[@owldude2865]

this is the best song ever!!!!! and this is also the best band ever!!!!

[@xSNOWYJOEx]

i love this band.

[@rhysninetyeightynine]

Broke up, dev is called lightspeed champion now. he's brought out an album and its done quite well.

[@TreWatsonMusic]

i miss this band so much ;_;

[@alan6]

Music is in a fucking state and we need more bands like this to wake us up

[@gfunkera]

It’s crazy that that’s Dev Hynes on guitar. Such a transformation

[@jimiller7]

My hatred of Stuff and Disdain for the Narcissitic now have a sound track, PEACE JIM

[@tacolegislation]

i love how they come out and said we were pretty much taking the piss, we never liked what we were doing and people still eat it up. catchy nonsesne tho

[@POKANOSYE]

klaxons are pretty similar.. happily i seen test icicles last ever gig in glasgow :)

[@greyhoundstations]

I used to adore this band.

[@InRuinsIL]

miss them too much 8( would love to rage at a show of theirs

[@kiwi14789]

In February 2006, the band announced they were splitting up. In an interview with NME in March 2006, Hynes claimed that "we were never, ever that keen on the music. I understand that people liked it, but we personally, er, didn't." for all you that wanted to know why they split =]

[@geektar03]

i didn't know much about this band until my friend showed me this song. Not bad.

[@thisbambibites]

@EarlyBirdIndie Yes it is him. I'm hopeful that he will reform the band.

[@fourganger88]

No surprise there- Simon from Klaxons used to live with Dev from this band.

[@mcooperisonit]

@brendanwillson it's certainly good that people are still discovering them, i guess there will always be people to complain :) this, boa vs. python and possibly what's your damage?

[@jrichardson4mvp]

@liltimir Haha both 'willy' and 'bum' in a comeback = total win. Bravo!

[@IGotProducedIn1989]

this is the reason why they split - it's because actually none of them wanted to make the music they made (although they kind of hit the zeitgeist!) - at least that's what they said in interviews

[@Crestblessed]

like this song, especially the live version with mc lars.

[@nanabanana3893]

this band is way different than any other bands i listen to and i kinda like em haha alot

[@jadegoreee]

saw them live 3 days before they broke up, good stuff :D

[@OkashaSH5]

I don't know why, but this video is awesome!

[@thundarrshirt]

Were Test Icicles particularly 'new rave'? They were more thrashy/punky, I believe

[@FrankieWithAnE]

love his pink guitar

[@jadylady88]

cant believe i first heard this about 2 years ago! still love it tho

[@fourganger88]

Dance influenced my right foot. They are just indie pop with the occasional siren going off in the background.

[@B33D13Z]

the crowd are loving it

[@hiddenshadow11]

Love the song, love the video. How the fuck does he get his hair to look that cool? Any ideas?

[@PathLeft]

true enough. the bass and drum tracks were pre-recorded and played from ipod

[@JuanIII]

@diex Well played -- well played.

[@Nikmetal]

love this video, miss these guys =]

[@kierkiegaard]

history of music: In 2005 a genius and unique Test Icicles releases their first single and a debut album.Very soon they turn out to be precursors giving a birth to new rave, they actually invents the whole indie style with their punky, frivolous and chick style. Unfortunately guys from TI give up far too quickly letting down their fans and forcing the world to wait for some analogous sound entire 2 years!!! Luckily nowdays we have Late of the pier, klaxons, copycats, Shitdisco etc.

[@Niamic]

no, Ratattag doesn't exist anymore! Rory's new band is called Kasms, they're noisy,but pretty cool. And Lightspeed Champion isn't bad either! I just wished we'd hear something from lovely Sam again soon...

[@topsyturrrrvy]

miss these guys!

[@bummercucumber]

I know. I was so disappointed when they broke up. One of them has a different project now though. I just can't think of it.

[@Inkdipper]

@sceldia4700 lol sounds like your gettin ready to send him a birthday card.

[@Glogli90]

I know that isnt nu rave...i'm italian and i love this song, stop, ok? Thanx! ^^ ♥

[@1neversaynever1]

to dismiss Test Icicles as just noise...means you need about another four years of listening to music non-stop...

[@Jaybeanbean]

*cough* these guys are the main influence behind the scene and had made it and broke up before any of those mention bands made it. rip :

[@pingushit]

this my favorite song of all their's

[@sheetman100]

hahahah yeh bro, dont get me wrong i really like test icicles, i saw them live twice too :) peace mate

[@fourganger88]

Test Icicles are new rave, Klaxons aren't (except for maybe one song).

[@smcauley600]

so what ya think of lightspeed champion

[@MF-PTCH.]

thumbs up to bring our test-icecles back :]

[@metronic01]

@liltimir NO he does ''outer limit recordings'' search it on youtube.

[@tiredsleep]

pre lightspeed champion dev's old band test icicles

[@planesfall]

Huh, my comment sounds really dickish. I mean, I stand by what I said, but I don't know why I said it like that. Anyway, yeah, they have had a huge impact on fashion - go into Topman now and it's pretty much just a choice between "Libertines" and "Test Icicles" - but they still weren't Nu Rave, willstar. Synths and skinny jeans are all over the place. The neon is the only really solid link.

[@apeczkowski]

it's so sad that they split up... after olny one album! :(

[@mariAZNMSK]

pink guitar... that's in my mind since 2 days.

[@blacklightrocker]

this song is fucking coooooool

[@kierkiegaard]

Yeah, but just technically because shitdisco releases their first single one year after Test Icicles and their album is published not before 2007!

[@PrincessPixieStix90]

i miss you guys

[@Antpichai]

LOL Obv! Just look at them... Do they look like they took it really seriouly?? like one of their old bands was called "balls"

[@mcooperisonit]

people still criticising them 4 years after their split. haha cute. i still love them :P

[@lokitaka]

what album is this from? i can't find it anywhere else!!!

[@KerreyTheBitterSugar]

0:59 I want these shoes ^^

[@KirillAFilin]

Those guys create new rave community. Not klaxons and other pop scene. Them!

[@fat80832]

out of satire

[@NiallD11]

teir definately one a da best bands ever...pity they broke up though.

[@opaldust]

It was good when they were around, well now we still have lightspeed champion.

[@danny0mcfly]

yeh bt the klaxons did also started abot 2005b4 dey got famouse..just bcuz they got blamed on this nu rave thingy doesnt mean they'r not good..even they dinn agreed the term nu rave!

[@bigwighair]

glad you can talk about it

[@vfebm]

holy shit, how fucking scene is that.

[@niceprince]

damn how did i not find this years ago

[@alan6]

a different singer u say, but that would mean it wouldnt sound like test icicles? What do you want xfactor?

[@danny0mcfly]

but still test icicle is one of the BESTT EVRR n the COOLEST!!!

[@JuanIII]

Yeah, they're amassing an army, marching single file, and headed your way. Freddie Mercury has risen from the dead and is leading them. They're all prepared to rock out in a very homosexual manner.

[@iainhudson]

@sceldia4700 he's in a bad called lightspeed champion now :)

[@Jadedwingz]

What I would have given to see these guys live. :(

[@planesfall]

Technically, Shitdisco were contemporaries of the Test Icicles.

[@SilentSolvent]

at least we have lightspeed champion now

[@paulmiller99]

all these bollocksy stereotypes basically its good music and all the other bands that people are sayin 'stole their sound from test icicles', are good bands as well! its allll good

[@JuanIII]

@liltimir Well, I'm certain inbetween his time working at a record store and waking up in the morning he spends his hours being abducted by aliens.

[@thisbambibites]

@sceldia4700 He was born in 1986.

[@finnadrian]

I remember thinking a couple of years ago that this was kind of cool, I come today and cringe at the vocal, goddamn

[@heyitsleyy]

where are they now

[@anatomyofjake]

+Ashley Barcus I don't know about the rest of them, but the guitarist, "Devonte Hynes", has been doing a lot of stuff. No where near the same genre as Test Icicles, but if you're into a wide spectrum of music. You may want to check him out unless you already have. He's currently doing "Blood Orange", but his past project, "Lightspeed Champion", was pretty amazing as well.

[@georgescasimir6580]

Well done Re: Dev Hyne's whereabouts post-Test Icicles

[@ryand111]

reminds me off sunshine underground

[@ShornOfSpades]

and iiiiiiiii am shaking from the tension

[@kaleidoscopgrrl]

about dev's awesomeness i mean...

[@thisbambibites]

If this had been #1. It was held off the top by Westlife! Grrrr!

[@vividimagine]

better than all the indie shit most you listen to

[@thisistom]

RAT:ATT:AGG i think it is the rest of the band

[@stripeyninga]

(L) love test icicles. maybe even more than lightspeed champ

[@sceldia4700]

@JuanIII I don't want sarcasim. I wanna know simple facts like his name and birthday and stuff.

[@neil0007]

Hey I can be critical too, but the singing goes well with the song. .....89% so.

[@helloferdi]

0:51 - Chick in the blue dress. I know her. Right. That shud do it for my street cred.

[@timghider]

test icicles were around long b4 nu rave but i agree with the rest x
