One of his best songs. Packs so much energy in such a short time. Riffs are to die for and the lyrics are infectiously catchy. Just excellent songwriting all around. The album is a must have.
SMOD! you're always leaving comments for every song i listen to regularly and i'm always listening to the stuff you post on your channel(excellent) this is telling me that you've got impeccable taste, bro. keep up the good work.
Love this song. During it's heaviest rotation in my life I was a grounds keeper at a golf course, and I raked the fuck out of many a bunker to it. Thank you Roky, you were really good at waking me up near 6:00 AM.
Hell ya I do. I never heard of him until like 5 years ago when I stumbled upon his documentary You’re Gonna Miss Me. Im so happy he got to play music again and didn’t die in that torture chamber his mother made for him.
I first heard about Roky because of Ghost's cover version of "If you have ghosts". Then I saw that "White Faces" by The Devil's Blood is just a cover too. So I decided some days ago to give the originals a try. And for God's sake, why haven't I done this way earlier?! Now I ordered some albums of him and saw the movie about his life and his music is playing without break because there are so many albums he made. I guess I am Roky-fied now. And I like it ...
To my too young, no sense of context, mind, this sounds like Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers in the coolest and most poignant of all possible worlds. So f-ing good.
A drunk boy linked me this before we start a game. Nice song to be honest. Hey you, drunk boy from league of legend ranked, at 4:11 , 11-15-2015. Go sleep.
its not hard to understand that swedish band entombed made a cover of night of the vampire when they hade Nicke Anderson behind the drums, 30% of NIcke´s riffs in other bands etc.. sounds like this so much
If ROKY and his music --artistic sensitivity, vision, his very own unique nature, ever flowing originality ahead of time itself many times ahead -- and the fight for his mind's freedom are important and influential to you; do not name or make reference to inferior formulated "musical" acts such as the ghost, hollie spirit or pope for they do not compare and do not share or possess any quality as they are limited by their nature.
This one natually,the evil one, and check out the 13th Floor elevators song "you're gonna miss me" that was his first band. by the way is your name a QotSA reference?
@oeyesea Van Morrison seriously, i cant hear that at all, maybe early Morrison when he was in Them, And early Roky, but definetly not career-wise, there is a bit of grunge ethic not too unlike Neil Young,

@@rodneykang2243 Finest music taste in North America
I dont respect you, you are spreading 3-sort cloned stoner rock music among plebs. Bad taste

i found this song and Roky Erickson by listening the cover done by " The Devil's blood" . awesome band, highly recommended
Vaggos Arko hail misanthropic music

Roky was light years ahead of his time😎
This guitar solo is awesome
as a long time guitar&tone freak i agree 100% ... by far one of the best solos i've heard. pure magic this album
the lead guitar on the whole album is great
😮😮😮
This is incredible!!
I found this song and artist by the marvelous band The Devil's Blood.
I feel sorry for those whom never heard of roky
Dont you sometimes wish you could forget some music/flm/art and rediscover it? ;)
Hell ya I do. I never heard of him until like 5 years ago when I stumbled upon his documentary You’re Gonna Miss Me. Im so happy he got to play music again and didn’t die in that torture chamber his mother made for him.
Just more for us 👍
Know if from Me and that man cover

white faces always haunt me so beautifully. .
One of the greatests guitar tracks.
Wow.. absolutely awesome rock n roll right here. Can't believe rocky isn't more well known than he is
colorful crucifixion, rising up a serpent dragon
fire breathing, fire breathing, his serpent tongue a-waggin'
what a verse
Roky is da man, u jus get lost into his music and u feel it
I need this album. his lyrics are pre-Danzig.
loving all his songs. I was really born in the wrong decade
you are never born in the wrong decade, unless u are born to early!!!!!!
Me and that man got me here
What an amazing piece! Roky you're a genius! Thank you 💗
Love this to bits
Legend...
Check out the briliant cover of this song performed by The Devil's Blood, with insane vocals of Farida Lemouchi!
RIP Roky :(
Love this!!!
I heard a cover of this song by The Devils Blood, awesome
GOAT. Roky is the best.
fuckin genius well done roky
I love roky 🦂🌙
Fabulos Roky
To my too young, no sense of context, mind, this sounds like Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers in the coolest and most poignant of all possible worlds. So f-ing good.
RIP Roky 😪😪😪
I finally found it I heard a small snipet of this when I was little and I finally find the song
RIP Roky
A drunk boy linked me this before we start a game. Nice song to be honest. Hey you, drunk boy from league of legend ranked, at 4:11 , 11-15-2015. Go sleep.
Nothing harder to do than writing a straightforward "simple" rock song. If it was easy, everyone would have done it by now.
Did Roky do a song called "Burn The Flames"?
Yes sir. It's off an album called "Gremlins Have Pictures".
Also good morning Charles Manson and the Manson girls particular feathered
his voice remember Rush´s Geddy lee
here's a good question, what are the chords to this song?
its not hard to understand that swedish band entombed made a cover of night of the vampire when they hade Nicke Anderson behind the drums, 30% of NIcke´s riffs in other bands etc.. sounds like this so much

Shut up dude. A lot of people would never have even heard of Roky had it not been for the covers by Entombed, Ghost, and the Devil's Blood.
This one natually,the evil one, and check out the 13th Floor elevators song "you're gonna miss me" that was his first band.
by the way is your name a QotSA reference?
Thrasher mag :)
Διαβασα την λιστα τις Γαια,πουθενα δεν ειναι να παιχτεί τέτοιο κομμάτι σε ΓερμανοΙρλανδικο μαγαζί!
Devils Blood did a really good cover of this, it's better imo.
@oeyesea Van Morrison seriously, i cant hear that at all, maybe early Morrison when he was in Them, And early Roky, but definetly not career-wise, there is a bit of grunge ethic not too unlike Neil Young,
and on the return of the living dead soundtrack
2 people shouldn't show their "faces".
i prefer the devils blood version only due to the fact that their version sounds more powerful, and Rocky hates this period of his life.
Andrew Miller You're an idiot
