"Le spectacle en général, comme inversion concrète de la vie, est le mouvement autonome du non-vivant." Finding the truly brilliant Guy Debord through this song, and contemplating the meaning of this phrase probably did more than any other event in my life to radicalize me politically, and made me question and reevaluate so many of the basic premises of social life that we are raised to believe to be true.
I insulted my Swedish friend in about 2006 by saying Swedish music was only ABBA & Roxette. She responded by making me a mix CD of which this was the standout track. Sweden has some great bands.
@@Gs-od5gc This is a very old thread. I'm amazed youtube's janky comments system has actually done it's job here.... I have enjoyed some music recently by Particle House, that's a Swedish producer.
I'm usually into Jay Reatard and raw black metal, but the baseball bats and Debord samplings of TTA were just completely irresistible. Now I love their music as well!
Augustinus Commentariolus I think he mentioned them in a Fader interview or something. However Lean and his friends in Sad Boys and Drain Gang has known Eric Berglund for awhile and I remember Eric being at parties together with them a couple of years ago.
So as far as sunny electro-pop, we have The Tough Alliance/ ceo Delorean jj (not really dancey, but sunny and chill) Cut Copy (a little bit darker than Delorean/ Tough Alliance) Air France (more intrumental/sample driven, but definitely balearic) Passion Pit (less sunny, and more poppy than Tough Alliance) Washed Out (less dancey, more hazey and new wave) Any others guys? I want to make a huge playlist to get cRuNk to. Thanks.
I agree, like: if the lyrics of this song would be a poem, then it wouldnt be much. But the song, beat etc is nice and reflects kinda the meaning of the lyrics. (i dont actually know how to analyse a song, but this is what my feeling tells me).
they really are not! although i as well enjoy them. now, i am in no way jusdging you, however have you thought about picking up a bible and perhaps going down on this virgin named mary?
We got koka-kola veins - we don't know our names Bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla We got koka-kola veins - we don't use our brains Bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla We got koka-kola pumpin' through our veins ♥
@KubrickKing The Embassy,Studio, Le Sport, Boat Club, Toro Y moi and Okinawa lifestyle they are not so popular as the others band but pretty good music.
Actually no, we spell it Coca-Cola. Although we spell cocaine "kokain", so it could also be to make the parallel to drugs (the liberal market-economy and the way we are dependent on it as well as addicted to the point where we don't care what happens, we "just wanna have some fun before we leave") more apparent.
@carlos0santos not really, the knife are alot more techy and electronic, whereas this has alot more indie leanings. Both are awesomefavourites of mine but i think they are two really different acts, apart from both being swedish and amazing :)
If that was your reaction you really haven't "studied" the lyrics. The song is obviously a critique against using cocaine to make soldiers feel invincible.
One of my favourites when I was 15. Few years pass by and suddenly I'm 30 help
Probably cause their too video for this song is posted on an account called smellyfartbum
See like high on the list of things i dont need to Be reminded about is: being 30, thanks 🥲
Koka Kola Veins, I'm insane, trip through memory lane

I'd really love to see one of their songs get half a million views.

This song IS love. The Tough Alliance is great. AND from sweden, that's pride and honor right there.

Augustinus Commentariolus I think he mentioned them in a Fader interview or something. However Lean and his friends in Sad Boys and Drain Gang has known Eric Berglund for awhile and I remember Eric being at parties together with them a couple of years ago.

So as far as sunny electro-pop, we have
The Tough Alliance/ ceo
Delorean

Dzięki koledze dzisiaj to odkryłam!!!! Super!!!

On London Calling, the song is stylized the same way. AND, on "Take No Heroes", Eric shouts out The Clash! :)

Riktigt bra låt.
I stand corrected!

Bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla
We got koka-kola veins - we don't use our brains
Bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla
We got koka-kola pumpin' through our veins ♥

The Clash have a song that spells Koka-Kola in the same way. TTA clearly were influenced by it.
hightimesbruce thank you. that's why I like them so much
brilliant!
Love this song and the video is great.
love that video :)
Haha, ja om man inte visste hur låten går osv skulle jag nog uppfatta det som "sweden know our names". iaf där vid 1.57
Haha Z-tv! Good shit😅
HOLY SHET! Are they Swedish? That's of the hook!!
I was brought here by a film about Yung Lean
TTA. Situationist punks with synthesizers and baseball bats. I miss them.
så jävla skön:D
@KubrickKing The Embassy,Studio, Le Sport, Boat Club, Toro Y moi and Okinawa lifestyle they are not so popular as the others band but pretty good music.
Baseballbat riot pop music at its best
sicken grym musikvideo!!

Denna videon visar hur dom använde Kola (kokain) på soldater i krigen.
Går rätt in i själen!

Yung lean have been deeply inspired by Therese boys. You should be more famous 🤘

I though that too :P, then I read the lyrics :)
Funny Games meets Abba
@carlos0santos not really, the knife are alot more techy and electronic, whereas this has alot more indie leanings. Both are awesomefavourites of mine but i think they are two really different acts, apart from both being swedish and amazing :)
Because we own.

You stupid
Bollibompa that makes perfect sense thank you
Bollibompa but what does the "we got our own jihad" part mean?
They're from Sweden, Gothenburg.

@WendelaochPepsi om du läste hela mitt inlägg hade du sett det hela med ironi ;)
@SkEdProductions, the answer is: marcus söderlund
@EJCRingo wtf has the though alliance with the clash to do?
Very good
So i guess its unpatriotic of me to love this song...hmm

The lyrics I was provided with from Service says otherwise..
@lolatyoulol they are straight
