White Trash-Apple Pie

[@c3smom]

omg I have been looking for this song for like two decades??? something like that yay!

[@The_Gary_Douglas]

Still keep this album in the regular rotation to this day! The "badass brass" is what separates these guys from the other hair bands of that time. For me, the whole album is great! Always listen to it from start to finish.

[@JohnSandate]

I had this cassette. It was favorite during the 90's. Good stuff.

[@creepshowcrate]

Great band. The first album is killer. The second one was pretty good too. Dave Alvin, such a cool vocalist. Thanks for posting.

[@violetscribe]

i saw them live in the early 90's.. it was them, the mighty boztones, and scatterbrains,.. it was AMAZING! this was when music was cool! and i still have my cassette !

[@zmbdog]

I remember MTV pushing this hard in the early 90's. I don't think the album sold that well but I bought it :)

[@Toropurorock]

awesome, they are come back!!!!!! i love this music .....is adrenalinic0!!!!!

[@Eddie3913]

i knew these guys ..funny we all hung out under the whetstone bridge but they filmed it under the Brooklyn bridge ,,long live the sea wall

[@brianwurst1234]

OMG I thought this was lost forever. THANKS!!!

[@HARTLUVS41]

i loved this song then and i now have the whole cd in my zoon, it kicks ass

[@123isito]

Awesome song! I made our band cover this years ago...our drummer got so mad at me for making us play this over & over. He told someone that I was going to have a drumstick stuck in the back of my head the next time I made him play it :)

[@erikdykeman7243]

These guys were, are and always will be pure awesomeness!!!!!!!!!!

[@mamademock]

This song brings back memories for me. I just moved to da burgh and was in Chef's school and when I wasn't I watched MTV 24/7!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@StevenVerd]

Early 90's excellence!

[@richardkaneferguson]

the badass brass ruled!!!

[@BrushApe66]

DAMN good to see this post! I always wondered what happened to these guys...guess they had too much originality....THANKS for uploading!

[@richpeianus6555]

Listened to this shit on thanksgiving while having apple pie lmao

[@ididcramsmom]

oh GOOD GOD, I forgot about this band!..havent heard this since i was like 14!!..youtube kicks ass sometimes!!...

[@haskel420]

the first time i heard this song was at the Wlt Whitman Mall in Huntington NY back in 91 or so..lol.. i went to the DISC JOCKEY store and bought the CD

[@nycalling72]

The route 107/Ikea mall for me on Long Island...and yeah, I bought the CD as well. Pretty good, actually.

[@kodiakfred140]

I bought this album cassette in September 1991, when I first heard the song. I was waiting tables in Myrtle Beach SC.

[@chleolizzy09]

love it

[@forbiddenevil1]

i didnt hear about this band, when i found their only 2 albums in some 2nd hand music store and bought them for like 5$ each round 10 years ago. I felt like i found a treasure - best buy ever!! I love em so much!!! Please come back! please?

[@doghanky]

!!!! come tuesday!!!

[@kunfussed213]

lmao. It took me a while to remember this band I know the song though. But when I did I couldn't resist looking it up and watching... --sighs memories--

[@MyRay1967]

LUVITT!!! cant get any better!!

[@xR1pp3Rx]

i have 2 of their albums.. these guys were bad ass

[@myhorse3]

Good band and good album ^_^

[@twitchubitch69]

Bangles!!!!Glendale,colorado back in the day omg!!!!!

[@c3smom]

@kidvishus they defied classifications but those who know them love them

[@222Lightning]

Two things: the pictures of the guys outside in the elements of NY in the cassette made me want to go live with my Father in Boston instead of the sucky south! The guitar part in this song is amazing after all this time.

[@ryanwags]

Killer band----bithchin' tunes!

[@zmbdog]

Love the album. Always thought the singer looked a bit like Heather Langenkamp in this video

[@mistabook]

It's funny, when these guys hit I associated them with the grunge and alternative bands you were starting to see in mainstream Empty V rotation, but in retrospect they're very obviously more closely related to some of the funkier hair/pop metal bands like Extreme and Faster Pussycat. Interesting stuff. Thanks for putting this up. I'm glad it occurred to me to seek this out, and even more glad someone actually cared enough to put it up.

[@RUmember7]

At least sirius/xm satalite radio plays this song. Thats pretty cool of them to do so.

[@Fretslayer2003]

Totally remember this!!

[@MWALKER3343]

When it 1st came out it was a cool tune.They blended metal ,grunge, cool horns,& little rapping & good hook

[@mgpvii]

Nice...saw them in a local club in Queens, NY (on Bell Blvd)...they blew my friend's band away...Shame competion is so fierce in the music industry where great bands don't make it. It doens't help that promoters are pushing trash today. Brainwashing our kids with crap. I was so proud today!!! I asked my 10 year old son, who plays the drums, if he liked Justin Bieber. He said, without any influence from me, "No". When I asked why he said "he is too girlie". I responded "very good".

[@kidvishus]

I actually dug this cassette out tonight and listened to it. It's just as good now as it was when it was practically 20 yrs ago. The problem is, they are NOT and never were a hair band, metal band, or any of those horrible classificatons. But MTV had no idea what to do with them, so they called them "metal". They were more funk/ska than metal. Listen to "the crawl", thats not metal, thats just good old funk.

[@zmbdog]

@swine19 It is. The album version is a little faster and "tighter". This is more of a live version.

[@Formulanaxunamun]

Exelente, Busqué este video ppor mucho tiempo.

[@manoweird]

This makes me smile :)

[@john69jets]

@HateDisease So you have been , im not sure he is from Fresh Meadows but even if he is it's still Queens and you dont need travel too far outside the Meadows to find a "ghetto". Now i dont know about "walking" though, tried that through Jamaica once not the best way to do it ....

[@rezpunk]

it was like late 91 possibly 92 truely funky, the rest of the album is ok, apple pie and the crawl are the highlights of the album for sure. they had a followup record but it didnt do well at all.

[@MyRay1967]

the funk,lyrics an beats OWE YES!!!

[@dharmaseed]

Funny...the audio on this video is different than the album version.

[@Rixterkat]

@brianwurst1234 ...NO SHIT...I totally wore out this cd back in the day and nobody knows what the fuck I'm talking about!

[@caira1977]

this band is able to give everything you can ask to the music... mix of funky, rock & jazz! Dave Alvin the lead singer is a great author and singer!

[@deluxe6475]

I just went looking for it too on iTunes. :(

[@pendragyn]

I lost my copy. Have the case but can't find the CD, wish I could find a replacement.

[@jadams2768]

Awesome funk metal band. Calling them a Hairband is and was an insult to all hard rock bands

[@mgsnv2]

Heard this today on sirius channel 23 and now I love it! I love the hook starting at 1:20 and the speed up at the end.

[@mrcool8127]

my my my to taste is to die..you're gonna taste like apple pie oh let me tell you bout nother thing or two...

[@louie817]

I wouldnt call them a hairband. No where near that. This was a damn good album, I still listen to it once or twice a year. I think if they would have come out in the mid 90s they would have been a bigger success.

[@TheIkkap]

@zmbdog Remember the song Hat Trick? In hockey getting three goals is called a hat trick. The song talks about the hat trick as getting laid 3 times at one event. Eventually in the song he has run out of luck and is now going for the fat trick

[@OpenComments]

What Hubbard was getting at with this statement is one of the foundational ideas in epistemology: that what you observe with your own senses is undeniable. For example if you see something red you cannot deny that you saw something red. It may have been an illusion or hallucination, but the sensation of redness cannot be denied. This idea is limited though to things directly observed, and does not apply to beliefs. It does not mean that believing something makes it true.

[@HotRod12667]

Their whole album is much like this. It's very good. You might want to check it out.

[@zmbdog]

I think they were doing the video live cuz this sounds totally different than what's on the album.

[@TheValentinesDJandBJ]

LOVE....

[@Strimbles]

THIS REMINDS ME OF THE BLOOD FARMERS MEETS HUEY LEWIS AND THE NEWS

[@juliolopez6289]

Queens boys!!!Represent!

[@GRILLBUOY101]

good song ga dancing though . i lookd his up cause i just found i on an old tape from 98 rock with the cruiser so i knew it was from about 90

[@mistabook]

That's a very interesting take on it, and I'm sure you're right. Somebody at MTV was clearly sick of the hair metal and pop-rap and techno-pop, but it took a few years of trying to make some kind of alternative rock thing stick. Faith No More had a big hit but never quite took off or spawned any copycat bands, REM were an island in a sea of pop stuff... You're right, bands like this were a placeholder while they waited for Nirvana and Nine Inch Nails to have hits.

[@c3smom]

@siouxxC yeh i love them i have to revisit then dang they rock horns and hair and i wish they were still together cuz they'd still be good

[@MetalHeart8787]

I remeber this & liked it alot of people did at the time I guess because they were different

[@davidarmstrong2903]

91 dayz long gone

[@rdsmith6675]

Band geeks meet metal! Yeah!

[@tomforgotch2800]

why can't I find this on iTunes or rhapsody?

[@chadwilkison]

I'm finding that my remembering of things is better than they actually were.

[@SlantShady]

Damn, I love this song! This version is different than the album version. I could never find this version anywhere. Anyone know if this version was ever released besides in this video?

[@haskel420]

awesome

[@Denaynay]

why can't you get this on itunes?

[@john69jets]

@HateDisease Really ? They from Queens NY , obviously you've never been.

[@deonnaclendenin3382]

Sure do 💚💚💚 da horns

[@augustgirl]

damn straight

[@killersammy1]

I'm gonna take a wild guess they haven't walked through many ghettos, contrary to the lyrics

[@daniellapointe2624]

good time fun...not too many bands like this anymore.

[@Kisstory07]

and my friend is the cousin of the lead singer of tokio hotel lol noting special.

[@cre8factory]

@AzzyWynn perhaps not the night you opened for them but i knew the band and they most certainly had brass.

[@GetUpTheMountains]

Dig

[@bobkelly1972]

Ever hear the first CD from No Doubt? This is exactly the same ska style music.

[@222Lightning]

@222Lightning don't erase your comment !!! Actually I owe you an apology...I just saw Justin Lieber on a music book at BOOKSAMILLION. I did not know who he was. I thought you were insulting the singer or drummer as being to girly and that you were a woman. My bad it was late. About being alone.....I hear your point but I like being alone. I get clarity that way.......with my art music and with the tornado of my past.

[@watchinJosh]

I guess you have the edge there. :)

[@kidwycked]

It sounds like most of the people in this thread weren't even born yet when this song was out. It's almost twenty years ago kids....and uhhh...that singer isn't so adorable anymore.

[@docdaytona108]

Note to 21st-Century "rock" bands: you CAN have a good time WHILE 'expressing yourself' musically. It's OKAY. You don't have to be downtrodden Neanderthals stuck in 'dropped D' or whiny little bitches with 'swoop' 'dos. Or is that what the labels insist on in ClearChannel Nation these days?? P.S. Great song, great memories, wish it was on iTunes.

[@mgpvii]

@222Lightning hahah...that is pretty funny. I see thru people like you also. You are one of these people who thinks they are some sort of intellectual but in fact are actually clueless and usually wind up living their lives alone. Peace!

[@cre8factory]

ditto!!! @brianwurst1234

[@74domino74]

I thought about this song the other...OMG...i thought the singer was hot back when they were first out

[@randers78]

He looks like one of the Hanson brothers lol

[@Brutz52176]

Check out HASH!

[@AzzyWynn]

my band opened for these guys. They didn't have any brass.

[@HotRod12667]

It used to be bands got signed because they had talent. Nowadays, it's looks above all else. Can't sing? That's OK. We'll just fix that with autotune.

[@watchinJosh]

I think you might have this Dave Alvin confused with the Dave Alvin from X. (As far as being an author goes. Maybe I'm wrong.)

[@elvago77]

finally, i found this video, i have a faint remembrance of this as a cool video and song, now i look at it 20 years later, and daaamn, it is the worst shit of that age.

[@ZKAttack]

awesome
