He just sneered and said, "fuck 'em all, fuck 'em all" He said I’am a murderer, although i've killed no one You talk in puzzles slayde, I’said, What have you really done?

Can you tell me, what does this mean? Now I’lay me down to sleep and pray to god my soul to keep If I’should die before I’wake You'll know i've made my escape but there is one step i'll never take I'll never listen to what a slayde says...
Well, they were inducted into the Western Canadian Music Hall of Fame a few years, so there's that! So well fucking deseverd. ua-cam.com/video/14HgHcrH3ME/v-deo.html
Saw these guys back in 91 or so. I didn't know who they were before that night and they blew me away! I saw a lot of shows and concert back then and only two great performances really stand out in my memory: Pink Floyd and Nomeansno. Opposite ends of the spectrum, but both were very impactful performances for me.
Damn, every Nomeansno show I've been to was intense. They give it all and leave nothing at the same time. I had the pleasure of saying hi to an exhausted Rob after a show in Tacoma back in 2004 or so. He was soaked in sweat and thanked me for coming up from Portland for the show. Can't believe they are no more. It still hurts, haha!
I saw them first I think in Winnipeg about 1987 I'm not 100% but they are a bunch of tour guzzling hookers!!!! take one band and tour till you get busted for fuck sake! leave the local girls alone you dirty old rascals.
First heard them in late eighties, eighteen years old, victims family, cardiacs, shaped my life, sounds dramatic I know but those who know what I'm saying know
Gotta love Rob Wright's bass tone. It's so raw and bulbous and threatening. Up there with Dave Riley (Big Black) and Jesse Keeler (DFA1979) among my favorites.
Don't think I have ever heard anyone do a live song that sounds exactly like the studio. Great video. Saw these guys in Tucson in the early 1990s. Best ever.
NMN is one of those bands where every song is better live. They were really transcendent in concert, particularly during the Andy Kerr years, but really nonstop until they stopped touring a few years ago. It's a shame they're gone. I'm sure they could have kept blowing people away in live settings until they were 100 years old.
Fun fact, we're living on different halves of this planet but attended on the same tour. I remenmer a young catholic priest on that gig and some guys from Legnica (city) asking for money - didn't have for the back-ticket :P
I've never seen this footage before! I wish Andy Curr never left the band. Don't get me "Wrong", they are still great without him but they were indescribably amazing with him.
@@denizplattner7180 I blasted NMN and literally cried in my beer(s) the night they announced their retirement. My heart broke when I realized I'd never see them live again. I'm just glad I got to see them so many times. I love everything about these guys.
Please help to bust!The goverment must confess! S'il vous plaît aider à éclater! Le goverment doit avouer! Por favor ayude a reventar! El gobierno tiene que confesar! Si prega di aiutare a busto! Il Governo deve confessare!
the best band in whole wide world

Until the end
A shake of the hand,
A pat on the back
A shake of the hand,

A knife in the back
And there will be no other brother

We're one in the same, You and me
We're brothers, Brothers in arms
We're friends until the end
We're brothers, brothers in arms

WHAT SLAYDE SAYS
Slayde is my buddy, my pal, he is my brother I’am one, he is the other
When the sun shines, he is my shadow
And when the moon is high, it's at his feet I’lie
But i'll never listen to what slayde says
I'll never listen to what slayde says
Slayde's always talking, and it's rarely nice
He's always whispering his poisonous advice
He is secretive, ruthless and cold
He mentions just enough and leaves the rest untold
He said, "don't ever risk an open attack, just smile into their faces and then stab them in the back"
But slayde, I’said, what about the weak,
The helpless and the small?
He just sneered and said, "fuck 'em all, fuck 'em all"
He said I’am a murderer, although i've killed no one
You talk in puzzles slayde, I’said,
What have you really done?
"I've cut the twining cord, i've shot the turtle dove, i've shut out that precious light that shines from above" Slayde, you are a poet, I’said
But what are you truly speaking of?
He smiled and whispered, „I murdered love" he smiled and whispered,
„I murdered love"
I guess I’hate him, no, that's not really true
He's not completely bad,
Sometimes he'll crack a joke or two
I guess i've grown accustomed to his funny ways
It's not his fault that he was made that way
I hear him in my sleep, I’see him in my dreams
I see him crouched before some terrible machine
And then I’face a mirror and he steps in between
Can you tell me, what does this mean?
Can you tell me, what does this mean?
Now I’lay me down to sleep and pray to god my soul to keep
If I’should die before I’wake
You'll know i've made my escape but there is one step i'll never take
I'll never listen to what a slayde says...
dann straight
Compared to what?
@@guymandude999 chicken butt
When the rules and boundaries of traditional punk rock are broken, you get this. Nomeansno will never die!
Compared to what?
Nomeansno - Brother Rat / What Slayde Says Live in Groningen 1990 2253pm 6.8.22 magnetic fields, he says: "period sitter"
what an ironic statement. I was not aware that there were rules and boundaries to punk rock in the first place?
NMN would deserve some hall of fame for this song alone.
Well, they were inducted into the Western Canadian Music Hall of Fame a few years, so there's that! So well fucking deseverd. ua-cam.com/video/14HgHcrH3ME/v-deo.html
I saw them in Prague in 2000. Best concert I've ever seen.
Saw these guys back in 91 or so. I didn't know who they were before that night and they blew me away!

you can't compare NMN to any other.
First heard this band in the late 80s, will be listening to them until my own 80s, if I make it that long
ME TOO!
ditto, One band to rule them all
So beautiful!
Goddamn what a show; what I'd do to see 'em just one more time...
Enjoy your richly deserved retirement Fellas!
First heard them in late eighties, eighteen years old, victims family, cardiacs, shaped my life, sounds dramatic I know but those who know what I'm saying know
Holy fuck, I love Nomeansno so much.
Gotta love Rob Wright's bass tone. It's so raw and bulbous and threatening. Up there with Dave Riley (Big Black) and Jesse Keeler (DFA1979) among my favorites.
Hey I repair strings in E Van.
Soo good!! So many memories love nomeansno
Please share memories.
One hell of a tight band.
Don't think I have ever heard anyone do a live song that sounds exactly like the studio. Great video.
Saw these guys in Tucson in the early 1990s. Best ever.
check out Mr Bungle too if you liek real talent
I saw them twice: in POZNAŃ and SZCZECIN. Just a tongue-twister :P
I was at that show ❤
Their best song, and the best performance of it I've heard. Fantastic stuff.
NMN is the best
I loved this song even without seeing this... it's better live!
NMN is one of those bands where every song is better live. They were really transcendent in concert, particularly during the Andy Kerr years, but really nonstop until they stopped touring a few years ago. It's a shame they're gone. I'm sure they could have kept blowing people away in live settings until they were 100 years old.
One of the only bands who sound just as good live as they do on their albums.
One of the best bands ever.
I've seen them 3 times since 94' plus the Hanson Brothers once they er better every time!
I've seen'em in that time (two drummers period) in Poznań, Poland. That WAS cool ;)
@@kibic12 Yes, saw them on this tour as well in San Francisco!
Fun fact, we're living on different halves of this planet but attended on the same tour. I remenmer a young catholic priest on that gig and some guys from Legnica (city) asking for money - didn't have for the back-ticket :P

Ej stari moj pred Mudhoney norošnica.90stga smo putovali.

Pis fakrs
The drummer's wearing a D.O.A. shirt. Freakin' cool.
Saw them twice on that tour, fuckin' amazing
Unbelievable,so big,yet normal band.
None like dem.
NoMeansNo (Andy Kerr era) are the second best band ever, after Fugazi.
Both excellent choices!
Absolutely! --on the NMN era and Fugazi. Wow!
Nomeansno - Brother Rat / What Slayde Says Live in Groningen 1990 2256pm 6.8.22 i think mackaye must be related to these dudes...
Excellent choices. Got to see both bands, NMN a few times.
most intelligent band in punk.
i saw them in guelph ontario cana-duh just before andy laft
livencuddly strikes again!!! You rule!
fuckin awesome!!!!!!!
I've never seen this footage before! I wish Andy Curr never left the band. Don't get me "Wrong", they are still great without him but they were indescribably amazing with him.
One thing's for sure, Andy Curr never left the band.
Yes, but Andy Kerr did.
vermeer5 lol...stole my comment
Wish I coulda caught these cats live in their prime, of course I was born when Wrong came out lol
Don't worry, they still tour and shred harder than ever.
Unfortunately the announced their retirement two weeks ago
@@denizplattner7180 I blasted NMN and literally cried in my beer(s) the night they announced their retirement. My heart broke when I realized I'd never see them live again. I'm just glad I got to see them so many times. I love everything about these guys.
truly the end..of an era .. whats left of what once was quality..nothing really...

livencuddly i'll marry you one day. thanks a lot!
How the fuck does this have two dislikes?
In the game Shining Force for the Genesis there is a Rat named Slade
Did he consistently advocate for stabbing people in the back by any chance?
killer one of punks greatest?
Andy kerr pulls great faces i agree
leuk hoot heb je iets van de OBLIVIANS

Maadness AND dEAD
