Red shirt guy is the type of person to do one paragraph for the project, but every one loves having him around because he's such a positive and enjoyable guy.
Something about this captures EXACTLY the essence of alt-J. Ever since I heard this, I can legit identify any alt-J song on the radio even if I don’t know that alt-J made the song.
That little falsetto "can you put it right now" at 0:32 gets stuck in my head way too often, and it's not even technically part of the track. Not to mention the hyper squid dance at 2:15. Masterpiece. Gets better with age.
actually the guy with glasses is gay, and they're both in a band together (with 2-3 other people I think ?) called Fleece, and they released an album in which he talks to his younger closeted self (it's called Voyager and it's really great) !!

Does anyone else keep finding themselves back at this video. It's like every 3 months UA-cam goes 'you've not seen this video for a while' and puts it in you recommended
proud to say i’d never heard an alt-j song before seeing this video, but now when i hear them come on through the speakers at my local coffee shop, i know for sure that it is an alt-j song
The fact that this video has existed for THREE YEARS and I’m just now seeing it is really disappointing but also thank you UA-cam for suggesting this for me
Although denim vest guy is the real brains behind the music making process, I think we can all agree that the charisma red shirt guy brings to this duo makes him indispensable.
I first heard this in June 2015 when I was 21yo and travelling the world with my best friends. It was constantly an inside joke on the trip and the years that followed. I dont know how but it has become this nostalgic song that fills my heart with melancholy yearning for a better time in my life that is now gone forever. Our group split up as friends over the years, and 1 even passed away, but we will always have the memories of our trip, when we laughed, cried, and learned to make an alt-j song.
I was high eating a rice cake and I thought about these guys so I watched this video and watching the guy in the red shirt also eat a rice cake made me feel like I was in the room hanging out with them
Naw it doesn't. It's just that the bar has been lowered so much that two guys doing silly voices for a gag ends up sounding "just as good as anything else out there". If you travelled to any other time in history, to any other place on the planet and played this for people they would say "Yeah that's garbage". Or .. "it sounds like children messing around". But here we are in 2016 and people watch this and say "Actually that sounds pretty good".
An Awesome Wave by Alt-J is such a fantastic and emotional album. I used to listen to it with my parents in the car when I was younger. Listening to it is super nostalgic for me. And nice job accurately recreating the fine line of slightly unintelligible but coherent singing Alt J does best. Great parody
The best part is that you know these guys are blown away by how popular this got when all they wanted to do was make a stupid video, get high, and eat rice cakes at 3am
my girlfriend put on an alt J song today, and I've never actually heard an alt J song before. I said "hey, this kinda exactly like that "put it up in my but" alt J video!"
