I liked them for a bit, saw some of their live performances (on tv) and thought "fuck that guy is a retard" then it turned out he was a little retarded and I felt bad, I like some of their songs though.
EDIT: the guy has aspergers syndrome, which is often described as a mild autism. People with it generally have a strong need for routine, probably not what a band can provide most times.
Nice clip :lol I have to laugh every time I hear The Vines because it reminds me of this frat party my old ass crashed a few years back when some drunk, cute hippie girl kept yapping off my ear about how The Vines were, like, the best band....EVAR.
that has to be the best nirvana impression ive seen in recent years.
I do have to say that The Vines are actually a pretty damn good studio band. Their CDs have some great songs, and they actually have great range in that they can do a slower paced song, as well as rock out.
Okay, I'll be honest. I haven't heard any Vines songs except that "Get Free" or whatever, and I hated it. I was just being facetious, because everyone's been saying The Strokes' new song sounds like The Vines. The screaming parts do, anyway.
