guys this is the first time in almost 5 fucking years I am not homeless anymore. I am spending the first night in a place that is mine that has my name on a piece of paper. This is the first song I played in this space. I was beat up, sexually assaulted, overdosed, watched people die in front of me and had to hold back my tears, spent so many nights feeling the cold cement enter my bones as I gripped the last thing that wasn't stolen from me (usually a cell phone and some headphones), and lost too many good people along the way who never made it back inside. Good people. Smart people. People who make you better for knowing them. And while the irony of this song isn't lost on me. Right now I feel it so fucking hard that I hope everyone overcomes whatever it is that ailed you. There is no good reason to ever give up if you want to keep living. That's a hell of a lesson to learn.
Damn that sound engineer is a genius. This mix is unreal. So is the band but most people dont understand how hard it is to mix something recorded in the same room like this. Everything bleeds into all the mics and so on...
IRT. I hear jazz, cowpunk, The Cramps, Tom Waits, Nine Inch Nails, Devo, Johnny Cash, and Social Distortion all at once. Freaking Hockert is incapable of making a bassline that doesn't slap.
I like this song a lot, it highlights the chaotic ups and downs you feel when you're trying relentlessly to quit. One minute you're feeling amazing for being a mere week sober, the next you're zooted out of your mind and you feel like all your efforts are for nothing, and then 3 hours later you're sober and you have to tell yourself that's an accomplishment so you can have the strength to push further.
His voice is so damn good. It's full of phlegm, grit and grime and also leveled and accurate with tiny little nuances of insanity that land so fucking well.
@@baalzagoroth4693 I haven't. It's something I still struggle with every day. I just keep fighting and being honest with myself and others along the way.
I'm in the same boat. If I didn't have the support network around me, fk knows where I'd be. Just gotta take one day at a time and be thankful for each day. You'll get there bro and be better for it. X
Hey Mark, just wanted to thank you for your wise and thoughtful comment. I moved to Vancouver 18 months ago and my support network fell through. It's such an expensive, hustle city that nobody has any time or space. Now I need to move for my mental health. @@markforrest9958
My uncle is a serious blues collector . I really can tune him in with this one . I don't think he ll turn to punk but he will appreciate this sound in this damn age .
When this dude wheres his sunglasses, he kinda be reminding me of the worm from James and the Giant Peach, but like, punk version. Which to me just adds appeal. Fuckin' love this band.
Good luck!!! every time you have a cool idea like these guys have, everyone will think it's bad or "sloppy" because they're scared. Then they go make shitty basic shit that sounds like a a record company wrote it, and everyone praises them for making the same recycled shit everyone else keeps making, and you're alone with your creativity watching everyone else get what you deserve.
2023....daqui uma semana chego aos 49... Já estou aqui há uns anos.... Isso me faz lembrar que estou Vivo... Valeu Sebastian e banda.... Longa vida aos loucos.... E aos raros.

You need to see the rest of their stuff!!!! Best stuff I've heard and seen in the last 20yrs. And I'm 59.... I'd given up on new music ever being good again
No, they're hard enough to track down on tour. They traveled all the way to strayaaaaaaaaaaar. And failed to haul there arse to NZ. But I'm sure they will head our way .
Sitting in the smokeroom at rehab in Germany ! 8 days clean from opi.. ! I show this clip yesterday in our music therapy hour. The woman (therapist) and whole round of users wereeee FUCKING HEADBANGING AND ALLL FEEL IT SOOO HARD..! WE WISH THE BAND ONLY HEALTH AND I COME TO THE GERMANY TOUR 2022 ! BOUGHT THE TICKETS WEEKS AGO ! CANT WAIT TO GET *HIGH* AGAIN ;) ! One fuckin love from *Neuss Alexius Rehab Stations* ! I make music too when I'm clean ; * das C - bis Gott vom Himmel fällt * that's me when i was clean ! fuck
Ooooh Manchester Ritz in June, will be a great gig, Ritz is my favourite of the 'bigger' venues in Manchester. That being said cant help but feel like June in Manchester is a bit on the optimistic side with how things r goin down at the moment...
When I first started listening to Viagra boys I didn't care for his voice at first. But this song changed my mind entirely, fuckin masterpiece right here.
I love his non-fear of flaunting his beer gut and arse crack. He'd be a fucking riot to get pissed in a pub with. But after the 20th drink I'd be keeping my eye on him, in case he got sick of me and decided to punch fuck outta me..🙂
Ok get it..I'm an acholic ...been off meth for just about a month!!! Thought I was over,but these Songs just reinforce me that being Sober takes alot of Friend s, Family & Support!!

Bless you, friend. Have a great one.

Jesus Christ man i feel alive 💪🏴🔥
The entire spectrum of Swedish man is represented here
Nah..... Björn is missing. You know, the guy who designs the closets of IKEA
Damn that sound engineer is a genius. This mix is unreal. So is the band but most people dont understand how hard it is to mix something recorded in the same room like this. Everything bleeds into all the mics and so on...
Sound guys everywhere just smiled and they dont know why...
2 years later, did you do it?
Yah at first I was thinking there is no way this is recorded live. It's absolutely insane.
i love your new direction as a swedish christian rock band. keep it up!
is this sarcastic? seriosulsy asking jsut got into these dudes and would love to know if they are acutally christians?
@@Zeraphym47 Absolutely not Christian 😂
Praise the lord and get high!
@@Zeraphym47 thery are now lol
Thats quite a coincidence.
I play a standup comedian/straight guy in a gay christian rock band.
Proof that good, dangerous rock and roll is still alive and well in 2021.
Yep. I feel the same way with Amyl and the Sniffers.
Barely.
Hell to the yeah♥️💯
Are you dangerous enough to prove it ?
I know.
Makes me wanna rub one out.
They can switch from punk to blues, jazz, even country rock.... never seen such originality since early days Gorillaz :) this band is going places
IRT. I hear jazz, cowpunk, The Cramps, Tom Waits, Nine Inch Nails, Devo, Johnny Cash, and Social Distortion all at once. Freaking Hockert is incapable of making a bassline that doesn't slap.
Don't forget all the comedy and satire, just a brilliant Band
His vocal fry is pretty metal
Gorillaz LOL
I’d love to see a whole rock opera by VB made into a multimedia movie ( live action, animation etc )
I'm gonna tell my kids this is Elton John
Glasses: check
Piano: check
I’m down
Bout another 40 pounds and a gay tiger and you're not wrong
Yeah that’s a sport
Eh, close enough.
This is Tom Waits , Nick Cave and BirthdayParty all blended up and served in a golden chalice 🖤🖤🖤
...didn't see yr comment cause I wrote almost the same! Cheers!
Right, I'll have mine shaken, extra-extra dry (no Waits) Cheers
@@awarewolves1712 🤨
My first time hearing it and I definitely hear Tom Waits
Even with the high bar he sets for himself, this is a particularly great performance by Sebastian Murphy.
Dude could pull off a one-man clown show at Edinburgh.
@@saltysamurai with a place to sleep?
AND AGAIN, BETTER THAN THE STUDIO VERSION, THESE BOYS KEEP SURPRISING ME
Is hard to decide which song from this Shrimp Sessions is my favorite. Every single one is a killer.
I ain't nice! for me, definitely. They're amazing live, I didn't realize it was Live until I looked at the title when I was shuffling Spotify 😅
Absolutely. I want to get these live versions so I can listen in the car . Good stuff.
I like this song a lot, it highlights the chaotic ups and downs you feel when you're trying relentlessly to quit.

Thatz the VPz brother.. fukin luv em
His facial expression’s and movements are spot on for the song
That piano solo is outstanding. What a band.
what a blast in this dark times!
Best Band since decades for me.
I've watched this at 5 times a day since I heard heard it a week ago. It's so mesmerizing. I love the frantic/manic emotions of getting clean.
So true
Beautiful
Beautiful
Haven't heard a band this janky and put-together, this chaotic and harmonious,
gritty and loving
Discovering the viagra boys is a fucking experience.
This reminds me of Nightclubbin by Iggy Pop so much. I fucking love it.
My first impression too🤣👍👍♥️
Jethro Tull - Locomotive Breath?
Tom Waits
@@kanakamayooran 👍
Yes!
The most important rock and roll band of our time
Ran across this band about a week ago, I'm blown away.
His voice is so damn good. It's full of phlegm, grit and grime and also leveled and accurate with tiny little nuances of insanity that land so fucking well.
His voice is sweeter than honey.
His voice is room-temperature black coffee and cigarette ashes. Just how I like it
His voice is not his voice his voice is "The Voice" Eh, like from the filem, you know, what am I talking about, what do I mean etc
Best sax i've had in a while
Shrimp Stock is through the roof right now
Always a bull market
As someone who has struggled with depression and addiction, this hits close to home.
How'd you get out?
@@baalzagoroth4693 I haven't. It's something I still struggle with every day. I just keep fighting and being honest with myself and others along the way.

Keep it up, its worth the struggle
This song doesn't sound like much on the album but this performance brings it to life.
I can't wait for the day this day rings true to me
My uncle is a serious blues collector . I really can tune him in with this one . I don't think he ll turn to punk but he will appreciate this sound in this damn age .
Just a nice set of youngsters having some good clean fun. Finally someone builds a road that takes us somewhere. 🎉
I just found this band. so good.
When this dude wheres his sunglasses, he kinda be reminding me of the worm from James and the Giant Peach, but like, punk version. Which to me just adds appeal.
Fuckin' love this band.
That’s a deep cut my friend but it makes perfect sense.
Holy shit lmao. Spot on mate.
I see it.
I just found my New Favourite band
Love the poetry with this band. Raw, uncomfortable and real.
Fucking epic. These guys make me wanna start my own band.

Serious Tom Waits vibe from this song.
yes!
BINGO!! I couldn't quite put my finger on it - was right on the tip of my tongue!!
Snap
a vibe between tom waits and iggy pop's "nightclubbing"
FEELS
These guys have got it.
Darn tootin'.
If this isn't a Tom Waits cover, Tom Waits should cover it.
Actually, Tom Waits wrote it - but he has, absolutely, no idea that he did!

Do they do kids birthday parties?

Brings out the European in there.. reminds me of scar with Hawk wind..... with a hint of Killing Joke.. love your music
This man has been to an NA meeting. The swan song of the newly sober.
gotta love a man who gives up speed but not snus.
"oh jesus christ i feel alive", i feel you my man
