It's referring to Aberdeen in Scotland. They said so in an interview. That also kinda explains why the monster thing in the music video kind of resembles what the Loch ness monster is thought to look like.
The guitarist at the left is always very serious and just stays there all alone in his corner on the stage, I think Matt takes all of his energy for performance of his erratic yet amazing dance spasms
Some people like the rawness in his live performances. If you go into a live concert I have a feeling that kind of voice would make you really pumped up. But you know. Its preference.
in this video he has the nirvana vibe going on. In the video, cold cold cold, he kinda has the old school rolling stones, mick jagger thing going on. I love these guys
I think they have more of a Pixies influence than Nirvana. I think people compare them more to Nirvana because they took influence from Pixies as well and Matt acts like Kurt :)

Matt's voice has it's limitations, but he doesn't give a shit. I like that.
nice
el rock es actitud amigo . saludos
I love how passionate he is when he sings. At least he doesn't hide his crazy, he's real, and it's beautiful.
I'm addicted to the way Matt moves
Love this song. And my home city is Aberdeen, Scotland
+Wyatt Scully No it's actually about Aberdeen in England where they lived for quite a while.
+Darth (in)Vader I believe it's in Scotland then. My apologies I just know that CTE lived in the UK for a period of time.

MATT'S VOICE HE WAS SO LITTLE
i was security for this day, throw back :] tears to my eyes fun times working for the show.
this song has an amazing bass line
the way he prounounces some sounds in this clip makes him sound irish lol
Matt is that crazy man who i'd like to meet someday... i mean, he catch all my attention and curiosity (it's normal i think)
that's not normal in the slightest
LOL I LOVE this band, I'm very happy they exist these days... we need this kind of music around
The way they perform this song gives me chills.
Totally reminds me of Cobain, Nirvana!! Matt does an awesome job with his stage performance! They all do.
I love the originality of the band... it sets them apart and I'm drawn in! Love you CTE
This is one of my favorite songs and every time I listen to this live recording I get goosebumps
Dope ass band, dope ass song!
His energy is amazing!
i just saw them live a few days ago, and they were amazing!! I would to another one in a heart beat!!
I just saw them in december, and Matt & Daniel look so different but Brad looks exactly the same lol
I saw them open up for The Black Keys in Septemeber
cant stop watching this, seriously
The way Matt moves around the stage just makes me love him even more
lincoln parish es uno de los mejores guitarristas de nuestro querido indierock. Un verdadero crack
THANK GOD FOR THIS BAND ♥
In an interview they said the song was semi related to nirvana. Anyways: STRAIGHT 90s SHIT UP IN HERE--FUCK YEAH!!!!!!!!! :)
Love this song!!! It has PIXIES written all over it. In a good way, of course.
Same here i just heard this song today and i've watched this video about 7 times now
Poor Matt, he's trying so hard to control himself
got to take ur hats off to these guys,sound great ......they are massive here in aberdeen!
this music is so cool .. wow !!
Matt have the Cobain spirit!!!!
The guitarist at the left is always very serious and just stays there all alone in his corner on the stage, I think Matt takes all of his energy for performance of his erratic yet amazing dance spasms
So fun to play.
this is one of the most weird solos ever.
They're great live.
the song is about aberdeen ,scotland ..fact .they were in scotland aberdeen and they made this song then .
Grant Webster I thought it was about Aberdeen, WA dang it!
This guitar solo is so weird, it makes it all the more enjoyable ! ^^
Look how they were🥺
este tema en vivo la rompee!!
Ele me faz lembrar do Kurt

Cage from the early 2010s were Intense and I hate that they are going in they're Rolling Stone phase
wow.. why so little views?
cage the elephant is awesome!
better than no diretion
Bravissimi !!!
I love u❤️❤️❤️
they fcking nailed it!
cool story bro
He doesn't shake enough!
Aberdeeeeeeen hay wey, hay wey
It was the day before, at the house of blues, greats seat too.
4/5ths of this bands is various flavors of Jesse Eisenbach, enjoy that image
that hair sings really good
Aberdeeeeeeeeen~~~~~~~~!!!!!!!!
Kurt is still alive-heres the proof for. damn I have a crush on them they're pretty brilliant musicians!!
+mri svs Kurt sang much better.as on the album .and the current soloist imitating him and singing awful ,but the track is gorgeous in MP4
+Jesse James wow what a pessimist. I don't even meant the voice, I just meant the appearance n the performing stuff. fk u. n what imitating lol
+mri svs more like black francis from pixies
At the end when they shook hands Pauly D just causally waved and Jared and turned his head quick.
What the happened to these guy they were dropping hit after hit this is my favorite part especially the breakdown part I miss 2016
agreed! fuck yeah.
Channeling The Pixies.
bass sound bad ass. my respect for cage the elephant
Kurt Cobain is alive and is the lead singer of Cage the Elephant!
AHUEVOO
Fuck is wrong with brads posture when he plays? LOL no offence but how is that not discomforting
Shane Yoo well he plays power chords mostly so I guess a high strap would stop fatigue or carpal tunnel
this song is scary
Super high
holy shit they were on jay leno awesome
Fucking awesome performance!
i wanna do shopping with them
Yes
Reminds me of nirvana
More like the Pixies
fuckin grunge posers lol
Herp the singer reminds me Kurt Cobain with his hair, his voice and his stage performance
It's intentional. Kurt Cobain was born in Aberdeen, Washington.
Kurt grewed up in Aberdeen
ye matt is tryin to be new head of alternative as person on stage I think, I know they are 2 diffrent kinds of people with Kurt but he's good musican
WHY HE SAY TIME LIKE THAT “TiMe😼”
xoxo
Legal
JAJAJA genial
And the name of the song is an obvious homage to Kurt.
I want to know what that low hanging jacket button up thing matt is wearing is called
ZIPEPROD it's just a normal button down shirt. A lot of nicer ones are long like that because it's expected that you'll tuck it into your pants
Gotta love those khaki skinny jeans!
I can honestly say that Cage the Elephant is the only modern band I like
On their latest album they remind me more of the pixies.
Daniel Johnston voice
Everybody stop saying “he’s the new Kurt” or “fucking Kurt wannabe” Jesus Christ nirvana fans are the worst
2:00-2:23
Kurt Cobain's hair ! :o
He said his dad was a musician, maybe his dad Kurt or Thurston.
They were on Leno? Sweeet.
What kind of shirt is that
omg matt looks so young here
Pixvana
What pedals is the main guitarist using for the intro?
What if its all the Aberdeens put together :D
Sounds and looks like a mix of Pixies and Sonic Youth (except from the stupidly high-slung guitar of course)
what?
hey bro if it works for brad it works..
i know and obviously thats cool but i dont think ***** understands what high-slung means
Charlie Burnham wut I was thinkin' and high slung blah blah who cares say whatever you want. love the endeavor Cage peoples
What makes you think just because the song title is the name of where Kurt Cobain lived means its a Nirvana reference?
playback ! but i love this band ! Pixies Spirit more than Nirvana Spirit ;)
ajjajaja in fact¡
This video cut out the part where Pauly D snubbed Jared. That made me very angry.
Cage the elephant or nirvana
Kurt Cobain, is that you?
+Lucas Fanchiotti Theyre both excellent but I think CTE has a better bassist. He really holds these songs together.
stfu. more like black francis from pixies.
in this video he has the nirvana vibe going on. In the video, cold cold cold, he kinda has the old school rolling stones, mick jagger thing going on. I love these guys
Dora Saraiva no Matt is better
Praise The Dark Moon your opinion. Just like it's mine when I say kurt cobain is far better
This songs name is inspired by the name of a town that Jared had a gf in.
The bands inspiration were the pixies probably why??
I think they have more of a Pixies influence than Nirvana. I think people compare them more to Nirvana because they took influence from Pixies as well and Matt acts like Kurt :)
Xvala????
