Great cover, lots of spirit and guts. But not a lot of risks being taken? That said, a lot of the covers in the series are kind of new takes, so I appreciate that this is a solid classic cover that keeps the feel of the original - almost like an acknowledgement you can't improve on Joan Jett, you can only honor Jett by playing from the heart. And they did!
Wow a band with a singer who hits notes and a few guys who look like they enjoy actually being in a band and can play instruments? Man AV has fallen off...this isn’t like them
I love punk like this, but I feel weird listening to it sometimes. It's not going to shock anyone or give the music industry an enema playing this way anymore, but I guess that's okay. I like the sound of this old punk but if the ethos is to continue it has to reinvent its sound...
Punk has been reinventing itself time and time again over the years (new wave, thrash, skate punk, ska punk, etc.) so don't worry about the ethos. Punk broke rules and broke down walls, but let's not forget that punk is just plain great music. Nothing wrong with doing justice to "old-school" like these guys did here.
I still listen to stuff like Misfits, Descendents, Black Flag etc, so I am in no way progressive myself. I still appreciate it when something grabs me by trying something new though. I guess that's what I was trying to say - that both ways are okay. I would have loved to have been alive when bands like Sex Pistols, New York Dolls, Ramones and The Clash first started playing though...
I like it. I could listen to it all day, but like I was saying to the other guy I still wish I'd been there when this kind of music first hit. Like anything, it can lose its sting.
Easily the best cover of the season... EASILY I mean not only were they one of the few artists who didn’t butcher the song they cover, but SWMRS actually did the song better than the original (in my opinion)
They're pretty good but it kinda loses it's rebelliousness when it's not a girl singing. I always felt it's power was that there was a girl saying shove it to being a good little princess and dainty lady but bad boys are kinda expected especially in the 80s setting. Kinda "boys will be boys" vs. "THAT'S NO WAY FOR A LADY TO ACT!"
Punk is never gonna be what it was in the sixties and seventies. This exact style isn't new anymore, and the newness was what made it punk. Now it just feels like an imitation with no reason to be.
thank god for punk rock
You bet your ass

sophiamustdie same it’s a problem haha

Seb is adorable...
The bass player is wearing his instrument so low it looks like he only wants to be able to play the E string.
James Rogers @tom delonge
its called swag, dawg
the Ramones bass player played like that. it's the best way to go fast because it removes the arm from the equation and just makes it your rist.
This band has never failed to fucking amaze me

Shit, they fucking brought it.
WHY CAN'T THEY PUT THIS AS A SINGLE ON I TUNES!
I love that the bassist is still wearing a Vipers sweatshirt in 2017.
Really feeling the early punk sound in there, not quite something I'd circle pit to, but its there.
Damn wasnt expecting that... Bay,Area well represented!!! Go A's!!!
what a time 2 b alive
crazy how they predicted their own reputation by covering this song
Did them dirty lol
great guys
☠️💣☠️
I know.
Wow a band with a singer who hits notes and a few guys who look like they enjoy actually being in a band and can play instruments? Man AV has fallen off...this isn’t like them
SWMRS are clearly underrated

"SWMRS's"
Edward Allard *SWMRS’
That's too many "s"

Got Ted Mosby on drums, Rockstar Spud on the guitar, MGK on bass with pre-op vocalist from Against Me! singing 👍
That's Bille Joe Armstrongs kid on drums
thank you gioz max is so sweet
If I closed my eyes I might think this was early Against Me!.
If only they could get even halfway as close to writing songs like Against Me!
well please open your eyes
Well part of the point of my comment was that I never actually closed them.
i think the same
Fuck yeah! Coolest surprize😄
cole-est surprize ehe im sorry
MY BOYSSS
I thought that was a young Mark Hoppus in the thumbnail.
PhantomKing88 i was thinking tom delonge lmao

SWMR's actual stuff is actually pretty non-conventional for punk, not "innovative" but its contemporary production with skate punk roots

I LOVE COLE
Oh it’s actually a band who knows what they’re doing. Nice. 👍
Hell Yeah and The Chats give it a try
☠️💣☠️
These kids are great!
hell yeah and The Chats with temperature give it a try
This is amazing! Love it!
sheer baddassery! CHEERS!
Easily the best cover of the season... EASILY I mean not only were they one of the few artists who didn’t butcher the song they cover, but SWMRS actually did the song better than the original (in my opinion)
that was so much fun
Hell YES
That was ok. Solid cover. I think the Sharpe Dressed Man cover is the best so far.
It is
thank you
That drummer is the most East Bay White kid lookin' guy I've seen in a long time.
I clicked on this expecting the Freedy Johnston song. But this is good too.
I WANT DEATH I LOVE THIS
Sorry I'm Fangirl me
Perfect match
Now that's punk!
Try out The Chats with temperature many cool bands out there have fun ☠️💣☠️
This kinda sounds like ‘The who-My generation’ when he sings Bad reputation... the guitar part..
Ma che figata
treble treble treble what is low end
cool
JArmstrong 👍

cole (the lead singer) is a badass feminist, he totally gets it!
Nice drummer
👍👍👍
Seb.
🤔🤔🤔🤔
Top comments always something about how someone in the band looks like someone else, so hey that kid looks like Eddie Redmayne
2 years what the fuck
damn
Wow, what an original take on the song.
Punk is never gonna be what it was in the sixties and seventies. This exact style isn't new anymore, and the newness was what made it punk. Now it just feels like an imitation with no reason to be.
The punk didn't change but the kids did. They're enjoying the shit out of it. You're just getting old...
Bijok natey!
Detroit Vipers Hockey
Cool Vipers hoodie.
Derivative
*Taylor Swift left the chat*
Oof
Green Day version of Joan Jett
C the drummer is Billie Joe Armstrong’s son so, I mean, ur not that wrong
fatboydrummer23 NO WAY!🙀
They sound nothing like Green Day though.
Lauren M they have the same punk style
I don’t hear green day in them at all , in my opinion
くそイカしてる
:(
Hmm... So just like every other punk song ever? Nice!!
Hello, boys. No. Just, no.
I think Avril Lavigne did a more bad ass version of this song. Hipsters can't rock.
No Body ew
....Said No body
thanks for making me cringe.
Ew
Punk musicians were technically hipster at one point, until punk became mainstream, so obviously they can.
