The Mummies - The Fly

[@ShelbyBryant]

The Farfisa Compact organ is a robust piece of music gear. A bunch of drunk mummies pose no threat to its full functionality as a rock and roll weapon.

[@momofri6643]

I just hope that Farfisa has some safe words it can use.

[@tamahome1970]

Farfisa Compact organ has Very heavy and quite to inexpensive

[@Whoragami]

the fact that i havent listened to this until now really shows that i need to get my shit together

[@rayrivers5880]

Love them

[@thugtatics55]

are you still alive

[@BrianaIncognita]

I felt this

[@surrealchemist]

One of the most rockingest rock bands that ever rocked.

[@thesunisflatorganization]

Who still rockin this 2023

[@bigbass421]

One of the most entertainingly hilarious and totally enjoyable bunch o dead musicians I've ever seen. Rockin' those Framus guitars and the Farfisa. Makin' 300 dollar gear sound like a million bucks, is an art.

[@00bilz]

I like how he aimlessly drags the organ all over the stage.

[@Fg1970s]

The Mummies were light years ahead of their time!

[@tabletop77]

saw them a couple of months ago and they still rock

[@tashload]

They played at my high school prom.

[@gueroguero_]

How was it?

[@PhilosophyCat]

Mummerable.

[@tyjesso4616]

I was at this show! It took place at the Green Door Party , a club run by Giorgio Gomelsky. A-bones and Swinging Neckbreakers opened.

[@SierraKilo9]

My faith restored.

[@bootlegapples]

...don't know what i stumbled into but it just made my favorites list.

[@icarodeartemisa]

I Want This Guys In My Birthday Party!

[@jimbomatison4107]

Best band to ever walk the planet. EVER!

[@bigmikevt]

The world needs more bands like this

[@thugtatics55]

are you still alive

[@bigmikevt]

@@thugtatics55 yes, though this is no longer my main account

[@julianalvarez7086]

This is so fucking awesome!

[@AidanJeans]

I love this. So much.

[@BognarRegis]

@mcandy1974 I'm glad I made a lot of cassettes of my Mummies vinyl. Those tapes always grew legs and walked away. So I can relate. My Mummies records never left my sight when they left my house. Especially my copy of Party at Steve's House which had most of my fellow collector friends drooling at the time.

[@samhain4539]

"The trash the keys" is a devastateing move..love it

[@MrBillies12]

one of my fave 'band'aged guys!

[@101Volts]

I think I'm speechless, I used to think Barry Andrews was a lively keyboard player since I saw a video of XTC playing Neon Shuffle, Barry moved his piano from his side of the stage to mid stage while jumping around, Pounding the keys. But this... I know the singer isn't really playing the keyboard so much as he's moving it around but holy moly.

[@Demonhator]

Greatest keyboardist ever! I love this band for some reason

[@Demonhator]

@@Stiegosaurus Your right!

[@fastloudrules]

I always love seeing a band playing live and being hostile in general in any situation and some audience totally get it...and others are like woah I could get hurt here tonight.

[@crashedupderby]

THIS IS 100% AWESOME!

[@herrentanz]

Awesome!!!!

[@Tarienidu1]

Man... this looks like the best show I ever missed back then.. F Metallica.. These Mummy Pirates have stolen my heart and soul. ❤

[@houseofgogo]

ONE OF THE GREATS!

[@inakiota]

this is what rock & roll is all about

[@b_ziurserolf]

This guys are so fuckin rock N roll.

[@Blendre]

Go Mummies!

[@grimalkinpurr]

[@TheFpCassini]

Spent all money on bandages- None for mic stand

[@angelapaul4064]

So fun. And he just keeps on playing that keyboard 😀!

[@zk4686]

oh man this is great.

[@alex_714]

it sounds like a mix of surf/rockabilly/punk/ pychobilly, i like it!

[@michaelb.9548]

I love this band ✊

[@sessaodasdez]

@MenkeriosAndemicael that's the spirit, bro. they blew me up with the mummy thing and their crazy performance

[@WarpxD]

This was in December 28, of 1991, do you belive they bloke up 3 days later after in the New Year's Day of 1992?!

[@pocketsrock]

I searched for the definition of rock n' roll and I found this video. Very accurate.

[@libraryquiet]

They look and sound like a rocking episode of the original Outer Limits.

[@azeivio]

You fucking coward, and a dumb fuck coward at that.

[@icalderus]

wow these guys can really rock! and thats sayin a lot considering the fact that these dudes gotta fight through some rigamortis ! i hope i can play this good after i die ... =)

[@weaselidiotu]

this is pure

[@mysterycity23]

Fucking love these guys.They are tops.Seen em live...best live show ever,and the tunes to back it?Does it get better than that?

[@user-td3uj8is5i]

This kicks ass

[@shogdite1636]

The mummies ! I like the mummies !

[@SorryForTheClarification]

25 people clicked "down vote"?! 25 lost souls.

[@rorc]

Down vote?

[@DavidBerard]

4 years later, it's now at 48.

[@rikardoss]

best band ever !

[@ForARide]

Absolute Nutters!

[@gazlee3208]

Yeah 1991, I was 22 and with no internet and no decent radio stations i never got to hear anything about this band.

[@BognarRegis]

Neither did any one else. I heard about them through a collector friend.

[@shogdite1636]

I only heared - land of 1000 dances, on the john peel radio show in the early nineties. Nothing else until ytube came along. Now i love em !

[@OLIVERBLEES]

Great!!!!!!!!!!!

[@hebneh]

Go, Mummies. It's a good thing that mummies have eternal life, after they exit from their pyramids. So these mummies will live, and perform, forever.

[@AA-xh2qy]

OH MY FUCKING GOD YESSSSSSSS!!!

[@brianlowdown]

hi mummies from the lowdowns s.f just saw u off the monks sight you have to play soon maybe holloween rip lux,love u guys if u got back it would be nicer than nice

[@sebastianbocchiooguic53]

Fuckin Rock !! Yeah !!

[@alfonsobredosis]

GENITALS.

[@DeVoNiSrEtArDeD]

2:25 sounds like theres a pterodactyl in there hahha

[@THEsortinet]

Damn, I should get these guys to play at my wedding.

[@tabletop77]

❤️

[@MrCristianillo]

This is so fucking amazing!

[@warluz89]

in 2022 I discover this band

[@drjitters]

Straight outta the crypt, too.

[@esob902]

This guys are fuckin' amazing.

[@Frosttitan]

Never seen a mummy trying to mate with a keyboard before. I didnt get a hardon but its OK, 4 stars

[@librarynoise]

trop bien

[@dutcjoc]

The real meaning of music is what "I" hear, not what they play.......i hear great ROCKNROLL here, or call it the way u want....doesn't matter.....i'm gonna dance and u can't do anything bout this fact ........... ;) ;) ;)

[@sikmagpie]

Fuck me this is Fantastic!Why have i only just discovered this?

[@532bluepeter]

these cat's are crazy.

[@bobbydowns]

@raymar316 They probably went back to their apartments and then, in the morning, went to work. But yes, they probably did take the outfits off. What do you have against The Mummies, eh? And what does anything have to do with anarchy?

[@ITownley]

man I wish I could have seen those recent reunion shows they did! Not the most original but they seem like a really fun live act.

[@Michael-uq4qi]

fucking awesome

[@Jesus-um1rb]

Nobody: The Mummies: AHH SHUT UP!!!!

[@fooman65]

I thought music was about expression and feeling, not worrying about what others think.

[@surftattoocat]

How can you not love this shit!! Rock'n roll in its purest form,are these fuckers still at it?THIS IS HOW PSYCHOBILLY SOUNDED BEFORE TIGER FUCKIN ARMY!! check out the surfin'wombatz for similar noisy drunken antics!!

[@101Volts]

Oh and the music sounds good too, I think their music is sort of like the Ramones combined with Reverend Horton Heat.

[@aritape]

PUTAQUEUPARIU! A melhor banda de todos os tempos!!!! THE MUMMIES!!! VIVA LOS SAICOS & THE SONICS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@anapoles]

..fuck yea.

[@BlindBabeBeth]

That girl's scream around 1:50 was totally not outta place at this gig.

[@TheFpCassini]

1:47 wher i live

[@angelapaul4064]

a well placed scream never goes astray 😀

[@Floskeknosk]

Ha ha! And I thought I've seen some sick shit over the years... Great band!!

[@kklikesushardcore]

so tough

[@xkcdHatGuy]

@jonsilence Was JUST thinking the same thing.

[@gloubloux]

@raymar316 They aint supposed to be anarchists, this is garage-punk which is well different from the likes of crass and other so-called "anarcho-punk" bands. Just rock'n'roll, noise and sheer energy. Budget-rock for life mate!

[@jonsilence]

This is Keith Emerson on organ!

[@phurphy]

@ratboycom I think you missed my point. I wasn't talking about the mummies.

[@dinkweed21]

How can you add a like when there are 666 likes? I love the Mummies!

[@Kirinbee18]

@jester2k71 It's Garage rock!

[@mobile513]

Dude, even their shtick is the cheapest shtick humanly possible - wrap ourselves in toilet paper. Which just makes it rule more.

[@killgreed5943]

@raymar316 I think my Cat has worms, how do I tell?

[@bobbydowns]

Oh wait, they're in NYC in this video. They probably crashed at Billy and MIriam's (from the A-Bones).

[@noouch]

farfisa organs from the 60s-80s were known for that sound I think

[@BroughamConspiracy]

They sucked at my Mom's 60th B-day party, so I had to beat the crap out of that booking agent Steve Martin!

[@BognarRegis]

@lastdayinsin3 for someone who finds their playing offensive, you seem to keep coming back here a lot.

[@allthesecars]

I'll have what they're having.

@vonsmitty1313 that's why they be called "Rock" and not Rock n Roll, they don't deserve the full title. They tried to buy it though, but we all know RnR is not for sale,

[@frunkus88]

2:18 lol

[@BognarRegis]

@MrDocCorbinDart don't sweat it man. She probably doesn't get Captain Beefheart either.

[@Lulugirard94]

Haven't they been around since the 60's?

[@ToddDoctorstein]

@lastdayinsin3 I think the organ player's chest sums it up best:

[@epikepitepi]

2022

[@ReviewStalker]

What loft parties should always be like...

[@KNHsuper]

asiik! goyang gaul menn! :D
