“If you think being in the music business is hard then you don’t know what hard is” - wise words from Amy. I absolutely fkn love this band 🖤
"...its pretty cushy not like being homeless or anything" She's the most down to earth rock musician ever.
Amy is a dynamo I like her she’s a throw back to the days of raw high energy music
She reminds me of Iggy Pops daughter or something
Reminds me of Chrissy Amphlet in 1982 when Divinyls put out their album "Desperate". Intense and awesome.
She's Wendy O. Williams-esque... really dig this band!
@@SaberToothGary yayayyayaya
She totally reminds me of Cherie Curry. Great energy for sure.
I was born in 500BC and I love this group!
It’s good to see you young folks enjoying this type of music. Amyl and the Sniffers remind me of the bands I loved back in the day in Akkad. We used to do road trips on donkeys for days to get into a good concert. Back then it cost a half measure of barley to get into a show and you got a pot of beer and a free concert sackcloth on entry.
The real deal right here. Saw them this last weekend in Chicago...it was one of the best performances I've seen. The world needs bands like this.
This is a legit punk band in 2019
Punk as fuck. A true feminist. Gives what she gets... Top 3... Misfits, Dead Kennedy's.... Amyl and the FUCKING Sniffers!!!!!;
It was only legit in the 70, s
More Punk than Sex Pistols!
@@Blackheathenly Hardly.😂😂😂
Punk was a movement...this isn't punk....but it is awesome
“I like control, so if I handed it over to them I’d end up like Katy Perry or some shit” Amy Taylor
Quote of the century!
Hahaha.love that.funny.but so true.
" We fucken meant it when we did it " Amy is authentically Awesome
Love everything about these guys! Amy is a natural rock goddess, and duuuude, Declan has seriously great guitar chops too. 100% a FAN!!! Exactly what the punk scene needed to break free from the very stale skate-punk stereotype IMO.
"It always feel good to scream..otherwise they'll lock you up..."
Amy is a dynamo.
Declan shreds
Love their lack of pretense. Amy wasn’t even too cool to ask what catharsis means. their music is sick too. Another great aussie band!
@Rowan Melton do some more research buddy!
@Rowan Melton These guys actually woke me up to the plethora of awesome music that has come out of Australia. I have literally thousands of records, but hardly anything out of Australia, but now that's changing.
@@PokeySoggybottom Not even Cosmic Psychos?
@@ihrstinkt100 agree, cosmic psychos keep putting out great albums
@@PokeySoggybottom check out Sydney band The Hard Ons. Been around 20 yrs plus.
So good to hear xRaySpex cited as an influence. Really love this band, they remind me of The Dickies with their energy and focus. Amyl and The Sniffers are making England sit up and notice in admiration. Total respect
Absolutely
Absolutely Genuine- Fantastic Artist , great vib! GO AUSSIES! Thank you Amyl and the Sniffers
“Getting free alcohol is cool” fuckin right my man. These two are awesome. Love the band
Went into the local record store & the owner popped the album on, I was hooked straight away....great band
shes just so fucking cool like genuinely, raw. talented cool, you don't get that cool nowadays
Saw them in Montreal in a tiny club, best live gig I've seen in a long time. Unbelievable energy.
she gets it from her angles
She’s out of her mind and I love it.
Im in my 50s and think these guys are great I didnt think i would ever get to hear real music again.............
I'm 48, yes it is really amazing!!
hahaha Im 51 I was thinking the same thing.
I am in my 50’s too and I got to see them -standing up front too.. so amazing they give me energy!
They time traveled from the 80s and I like it
Yup with the keyboards and the drum machine
@@punkisinthedetails1470 no
@@pablogates5355 I was joking about the keyboards and the drum machine.
Amyl and the Sniffers and Starcrawler.. my favorite two bands right now.
Omg Declan's hair is gorgeous and beautiful.
Yeah, this guy is a cracking guitarist.
came up on my recommended...like what I'm hearing from this band and in this interview...Amy asking the interviewer "what does catharsis mean?...there's no bullshit here...she's the genuine article....good to see punk in 2019
Amy is one of my new favorite people.
AMY AND THE SNIFFERS ! ARE TOTALLY FANTASTIC ! ALLAN LUVS YA !
Only just discovered these. Best thing to come out of Aus in a long time and I'm an ancient punk.
“Back me up”
“Whu- you want me to do a beat?”
“No, tell em im good”
“Yeah, she’s really good” 🤣😂
Just got into this band and i love em and after watching this i'm even more into them as Amy said she has started to listen to X-Ray Spex. What a shame she can't ever get to see them (R.I.P Poly). I was lucky and did. What a breath of fresh air this band is .
Restored my faith that music isn't just a horrible plastic bore now. These are like on a wave of a renaissance of real music I am chuffed to discover is happening with a whole younger generation and it's a major relief for me because it was really looking bad for a while.
Totally well said. Yes I felt like this too till I discovered them. They're ace , raw, straight up punk rock. I love Amy 🤟
Amy and the boys have the energy of an aussie❤, -your fellow American
Amy reminds me of Cherie Currie from The Runaways 🖤
Kind of just discovered them. Damn these guys are so damn awesome. Love them. Damn!
She really reminds me of Chrissy Amphlett … Chrissy just grabbed the mic with both hands…arms extended and she would just wail. Amy is a stage presence and wonderful that they are both from Australia. Dig the music! 🤘🤘🤘
This!! YES!!!!
Not only are they cool, they're fucking nice and I dig that. Amy is almost kinda sweet, until she explodes on stage, then she's a rock star. Proud to be an Aussie, go Straylya.
Straylya! =) Greetings from Argentina mateeee
omg - she's the real thing! I thought she was playing the part. Sweet.
She's like a female Bon Scott .
GrooberNedJardine that’s a perfect analogy
Funny you say that they just played the highway to hell festival in Perth dedicated to ACDC
With elements of Wendy O. Williams and Polly Styrine!
Bonnie scott
She's pure 70s Melbourne Sharpie chick.
Finally a band that got me into punk
...They remind me of a modern, female Iggy & the Stooges! Love the energy, & Raw Power! I'd love to catch one of their shows! If your a fan of the Stooges your gonna love these guys! 100% pure Rock n' Roll!
You got it man! I love Amyl, she’s a pure energy. Just like Iggy.
Fair dues to the interviewer, some good considered questions. Loving the new album!
Amy is a musical genius, on a par with the best.
Thank you face culture for this fine interview
It's funny hearing Declan talk about his guitar work, because you do hear it, and even when it's great, it's still a bit shit, but in this, just, raw, honest, going just past the limits of his skills kind of way, that's just perfect for the band. I hope no matter how skilled he gets, he always plays just a little bit harder than he actually can, so it never loses that feel of being just a little bit shit. The Sniffers wouldn't be the same if they weren't just a little bit shit :p
Truth. It's the hardcore influence. Needs to be a bit shit to sound great, and they sound great because it's the perfect amount of shit.
best band nowadays
This band is gonna be huge!
Just saw your comment made 2 years ago. You were right so far. Opening for the foofighters. Def growing in popularity. Just discovered em, fkn breath of fresh air!
Big Love & Respect! Top sounds and top people! Greetings from France! Xx❤️🐕
Great interview!
I checked out Drunk Mums and The Cosmic Psychos on their recommendation and, holy shit, that's some great stuff! There's heaps (gotta say that word with an Aussie accent!) of Cosmic Psychos full albums here on UA-cam, as well as some Drunk Mums, and they've taken over my cycling playlist as I tear up the streets of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan! Friggin' rights!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yep Cosmic Psychos promoted on their IG: instagram.com/p/CAr_ry5hIJN/? | Well worth checking out
@@leonpfields9100 That was wicked! Thanks a lot!
Private Function.
Check out the 6 min clip of better not bitter by the cosmic psychos.
Declan and Amy, ye are such gorgeous people🇮🇪❤️☘️
Yep!! I am in love..💕 Amy is too cool
guided by angels is a good tune.. if they keep assembling progressions similar to that tune they will definitely be a force for inspiration. talented musicians should be recognized..
Very good interviewer - excellent questions
Love this band and I definitely want a girl like Amy
😂 😂 Dec 'I've just learnt you don't want to get on Amy's bad side' 😂😂😂
Fkin love yas all!!! 😍😎
Very nice interview😀
It's great to see punks nowadays.
She's legit like what crazy is when you call someone that In a positive way
PROOF POSITIVE, THAT PUNK WILL NEVER DIE!!!!
#LongLivePuNk 🧷
#LongLiveAmylAndTheSniffers🎸
diggin these fellas alot.
Wish I could 'like' the video as many times as they say it in the interview
i loveeeeeeeeeee you amyl
Super cool
She reminds me of the early 80s party chicks in high school. I mean that in a good cool manner. Come to Phoenix Az. USA.
There were here in Phoenix last night.
Dale Goodman ... no freakin way. That’s what happens when I’m stuck on the damn Phone all the time. Missing out on life. Damn you IPHONE.
I can't help but like their music, when your play list needs a perk, drop some Sniffers in there.
Hell yeah!
Come to El paso, texas please!
Dec rockin the Toecutter
I wonder how many people will get the reference of Toe Cutters hair do
That's right and stay in control.Because if someone else has the wheel, they're gonna drive you right off the road.Amy you're smart and pretty like kiss kiss
come to Liverpool
dancing on being condescending ,,, love their vibe
all four of yall are mothafucking rock stars
(Being on stage) It’s just like working at the deli 😂👌
Amyl IS da bomb, and cool af
Had a great chat with them after after they played at the Brudenell in Leeds 😊👍
лучшие!
I fucking love her
Cool!
Its interesting how she can go from a totally lit up smile to serious in a second, i hope they finally break it big, and o hope they never implode because of fame, money and ego.
Brain Mannix,s love child right there.
😂😂 What a great band 👍👍
If they come to philidelphia there will be a shared experience.
woo babez!
Man this covid period is throwing out diamonds all over the place, i thought Jinjer were the kinda 2020 breakout band until i heard Amy and the Sniffers....
Luvs, it is bloody lovely (at least in Vera it was). Chizz
❤
"Ready ? " Amy :nodnodnod always
Can’t help but imagine a rock show show with them on the bill with texas band A Giant Dog
I've seen the Ramones, the Clash, and the Replacements. I wanna see these guys play!
I saw yer mum
nowhere on earth will you see as many mullets per square inch as you will in australia.
Not true, this band is an exception, plus we don't use inches here.
@@deaddoll1361 i bin to oz they got mullets all over the place.
I spent all of last year there. Yeah, you'll see the world famous bogan and his mullet here and there, but it's not like an epidemic or anything. I saw way more mullets and lines shaved in the sides of people's heads among Mexican immigrants in Chicago than I ever saw in Melbourne or Brisbane.
Real deal Aussie bogans.
She is fabulous. Dec gets talky when it comes to the craft of musicianship..
Where they from??? Love this
Eric Donalson Australia 🇦🇺
From Death Trip Australia
Melbourne
It’s good that she understands, and wants to learn more about the business side. She probably learned a thing or two from stories about people like Marc Bolan……..
Sometimes things just come together
You can't fake being that nice. Iggy Pop is just like that from everything I hear, as was David Bowie.
Awesome new band. Anyone else hear stiff little fingers in some of the tracks 🤔
Oh and I'm 54
Holey Moley....the thing about being on tour and getting out your energy, your, "anger" versus ordinary life.
I know and recognise that in myself and I return to the boxing gym or marial arts centre that have full contact sparing to, "even", myself out from time to time.
Watch 14.40 to 15.55.
Gidget and Duke's secret life as Punks.
No other music suits the wild Australian nature than Rock n Roll..
when your born gold is it hard
I grew up with girls here in Australia like Amy and they will give you the shirt off their back but if you do them wrong they will destroy you in such an eloquent way. I fucking looooove her!
