A ton of bands sound like this and have sounded like this since at least the early '90s. They are lovingly inspired by classic punk, alt rock, and especially a sub-genre of punk from the 90s called "Riot Grrl" (number of rrrrrr's is optional lol).

Pillowzchan I can take almost no credit for this. I had been trying to transcribe the lyrics to every single song of theirs I could, but I was having some difficulties, and still have some with a song or two here or there, mostly on their Taking Over The World album. You can find a bunch on their Tumblr page: www.skatingpollylyrics.tumblr.com
@@holykonchu7250 it's weird tbh, here I am working in a saw mill wondering what to do with my life, and then there is her, jamming out like a fucking mad man. So much passion, I sadly have none
@@davidjr5811 I love my job as a maintenance man because I enjoy labor, is a man not entitled to the sweat on his brow? Find something you enjoy and pursue it, be damned if it makes money or not
Awesome song, video and recording. Thanks for working so hard and thanks to anyone that’s helping accomplish these amazing videos. Makes life suck less 🙏
A lot of people say "90s came back, Hooray!". I do not agree with them. Yes, 90s are strong in this band. As well as 80s and 70s. The thing is for me, the reason I love this band is because it's something new. This music grew from 70s, 80s and 90s music, yes, but Skating Polly brings original sound and texts, new songs, new music. There are very few bands today that are original. Not blend. Not generic. Skating Polly is one of them, and I love it. Thank you for what you're doing!
I guess I must keep praising Skating Polly for their ability to sound just like themselves and ignore all the comparisons to other artists. I like this band because it’s unique and fresh. Stay chilly cool beans.
It depressed me that Nirvana’s influence on music was so minimal. It seems like it just took a while. I see it everywhere in many different incarnations now. I love it, thank you to all who never let punk rock die.
@@alicec1533 I mean, Nirvana is Grunge Punk, so if you take inspirations from grunge punk bands like Nirvana and Mudhoney, certainly you'll get a grunge punk sound yourself.
Grunge and punk are 100000% different genres, saying they’re the same is just lazy n inaccurate. Everything from the sound/music itself, culture,style, politics,history,etc. is entirely unique unto each. Its like saying jazz and classical are the same thing.
NOPE. They are not in Charts because the Charts want's melancholy, middle of the road, boring crap to appease the masses. This is WHY they rock---not for everyone, but fucking awesome. The masses would not know good music if it slapped them in the head with a heavy bass.
Can't help to listen to you again and again, you don't imagine at what point i feel happy when i find bands like you with the same energy, feelings etc well go on, keep on doing this kind of stuff, you're helping people (like me) to go through their daily life, so truthfully i'm grateful ^^
This is prob the best band of a generation, and yet not many people know about them. If MTV was still in control of music they would be a household name. Just facts

peyton chose the band name because she was into roller derby at the time and thought that polly was a cool feminine name lol not everything is some sort of nirvana reference
Welcome to skating Polly history. They started as a duo, with Kelli and Payton playing drums, guitar, and basitar (cross between bass and guitar.). Kurtis, their brother joined the band later, starting with the EP that they made after The Big Fit. This has been, skating Polly history.
Well, first of all, No-one's saying Nirvana was better than this band of women. Comparing someone's classical composition, mastery and style to that of Debussy or Mozart doesn't mean they aren't talented as a virtuoso/virtuosa in their own ways. Comparing someone's acting skill or versatility to Clint Eastwood in a western doesn't mean they don't have their own contributions as a lead character in the movie they are in. Human beings look for patterns of things they like and dislike, from food to personalities, music and so forth; so being compared favorably to something someone remembers fondly isn't a disrespectful gesture but an attempt at a compliment. It's less that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery and more that in the minds of most, talent is inherent to each of us and so when we encounter something new that we like, comparing it to an older favorite of ours seems fairly natural.
I have the pink splatter vinyl of “the make it all show” thanks to Shake It records in Cincinnati.. it’s sold out on their website so check your local shops. Their two previous albums are on Amazon Music but I will get them eventually.
I was not prepared for that explosion of pure angst. Good shit.
same. Was getting into the smooth melody before boom. Such a shock.
I really don't understand why this band isn't more popular thy rip! No one sounds like this it's AMAZING!
They are different, marching to their own drums

90's are back! Great!
+realityserieweb you'd better try Wolf Alice or Kid Wave instead (or as well)
@K You see it too eh? There's a 30 year influence on everything, it's like we're on a loop.
Gladly since I wasn’t alive at that time
That's 80's punk
These girls give me hope !!! 90´s are back! good music is back !!!
You know a Song is good when you're not mad to have your mind play it's catchy parts on repeat for days
This is the first song RUclips suggested to me for Skating Polly, HUGE fan now. I listen to this song over and over.
She always thought that you
Would be the best perfume
She's feeding dirt mice
She never argues
She's indifferent
Just like you
Even in my dreams
I would not be bitter
Even in my dreams
I would not spell it out
Thought he was a pretty scarf
Then he was a snake
Take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it
It's a hunt
Frying slowly
In butter and fate
Take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it
You're the runt
Seven odd clouds
Seven odd men
Yeah
She coughed up pounds for you
Bought you some blue suede shoes
Kept breeding fat mice
She never argues
She's obnoxious
Just like you
Even in my dreams
I would not be bitter
Even in my dreams
I would not spell it out
Thought he was a pretty scarf
Then he was a snake
Take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it
It's a hunt
Frying slowly
In butter and fate
Take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it
You're the runt
Seven odd clouds
Seven odd men
Yeah
Seven odd clouds
Seven odd men
Yeah
I know you wanted to be class white trash
Or were you going for class clown?
Even in my dreams
I would not spit it out
Even in my dreams
I would not spit it out
Thought he was a pretty scarf
Then he was a snake
Take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it
It's a hunt
Take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it
If you want
Take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it
If you want
THANK YOU

The first time I heard this song I thought they singing
Daddy was a big star
HEY-E-A-OH
Granny was a snake
HEY-E-A-OH lol.
SpookyHelder yes we just listen to it too jackass
@Christy Hardy I lost a corn dog in butthole!!! Are you happy now!!! I was so very hungry and it just lost up there never to be seen again 😭😭😭😭😭
HOLLY!!!! That's just brutal!!! I haven't heard something like it in 20 years!
Who's Holly?
finally a modern grunge band! this is amazing!
You would probly like charly bliss. Black hole is a really good song.
pssst, check out Hands Off Gretel
@@Nepionix420 Hands of Gretel are awesome.
Check out Superbloom and Lever!
Wow, thx for the recommendations!
I’m falling down the rabbit hole. She’s so good. Grunge still lives.
New band crush.
Think Kelli was 15 when they recorded this.
When I learned she was born in 2000 I was like "aw hell yeah, same year gang"

Even though I’m a Metal Head I gotta say, not many like her can pull it off like she does. And it’s good!
One part Belly, two parts L7, a dash of Veruca Salt, and a heaping tablespoon of Nirvana. Cook fast and heavy. Result? Awesome.
That was REALLY dumb
I just wish the chorus was a LITTLE cleaner. If it was this would probably one of my favorite songs EVER.
Finally!!!!!!!!! Since Oddie Moore i have been waiting to hear new stuff from them. I love this song. Cant wait for the album.😁
This is everything - one of the best rock and roll videos of all time.

can't get enough of this. come to the UK!
This is IT. This is the theme of grunge songs. The grungiest of all grungy grunge songs isn't even from the grunge era.
This is exactly the kind of stuff i want to watch, the world needs more chicks like you.
I keep watching this video over and over. I'm sorry.
y u sorry? :D
Florian Günther idk. i just am.
awesome song you girls have a very bright future
Everyones talking about the nirvana influence, but tbh I see more placebo in the way she sings and the songwriting
Great song and video! Looking forward to the new record!
Sensacional!!! Brazil asap!!!
Guilherme Borges é uma mistura de nirvana com hole :v
The level of grunge is a lovely 1,000% with this one!
My 10th time watching this music video and only now did I notice the A Clockwork Orange poster on the wall.
I wish I could like this multiple times. I feel as though a "like' is not enough credit to give.
you guys are gonna blow up, I know it for sure
just discovered these gals and im obsessed already
I guess I must keep praising Skating Polly for their ability to sound just like themselves and ignore all the comparisons to other artists. I like this band because it’s unique and fresh. Stay chilly cool beans.
Dave, hope you're keeping up with SP, their recent Chaos County Line album is spectacular!!!!
back here for the 1000th time - thanks for such an awesome song!
YESSS 🙌🏻 love the song & video! Hopefully you both can tour over to Ireland at some stage. That'd be amazing. Can't wait for the new album!
aa one of my favourite youtubers like one of my favourite bands
lily anne Awh wow thank you for calling me one of your fave youtubers! I love SP! I saw them in London when they supported Babes in Toyland :) xxxx

This is the band I was looking for
"Even in my dreams"... What a beautiful change of tone in that part.
super cool. really like the song and the vid. the vid is really well produced cant wait for the album.
my favorite song off this album
It depressed me that Nirvana’s influence on music was so minimal. It seems like it just took a while. I see it everywhere in many different incarnations now. I love it, thank you to all who never let punk rock die.
You mean Grunge...
@@mrgrimsle5627 genres really don't matter, punk is grunge is punk whatever. Skating polly has punk influences.

Skating Polly Should Be Number One In The Music Charts
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

this song is f-ing amazing
Finally!!! Good music is back!!!! Sounds great to me! Thanks to my nephew Chris for turning me on to this band... \m/ \m/
Im not your nephew but my names Chris and they fucking rock right?
No one sounds like this. So AWESOME.
This is prob the best band of a generation, and yet not many people know about them. If MTV was still in control of music they would be a household name. Just facts
I’m glad I found u 2 years ago.U deserve to be worldwide a New Revolution!!!
Peyton screams are so fucking gooooooooooood!
This is a great song, thank you for playing it in Denver for us!
I saw them in Omaha a few years ago opening for X. They are true and excellent PUNK. They should be all over the fucking airwaves.
Love it at 1.53 when your trying to be all serious and let off a little smile. Love this song and album,looking forward to hearing the new one:)
girrrrls u rock! can't stop listening
crazyy music the best i am shoking of it,keep my fingers

L7 RELOADED
I love this so much! Greetings from Germany!
I really like this song and video. nothing like you 2 rocking out at 3:34!!! epic!
Lyrics:
She always thought that you
Would be the best perfume
She’s feeding dirt mice
She never argues
She’s indifferent, just like you
Even in my dreams I would not be bitter
Even in my dreams I would not spell it out
[Chorus]
Thought he was a pretty scarf
Then he was a snake
Take it take it take it take it take it take it take it
It’s a hunt
Frying slowly
In butter and fate
Take it take it take it take it take it take it take it
You’re the runt
Seven odd clouds, seven odd men
She coughed up pounds for you
Bought you some blue suede shoes
Kept breeding fat mice
She never argues
She’s obnoxious just like you
Even in my dreams I would not be bitter
Even in my dreams I would not spell it out
Every once in a while I just have to re-watch this. One of the best all times rock songs, and a brilliant video ❤️
Thumbs up from Sweden keep being awesome👍
This is so fucking awesome
Fuuuck.. I love Kelli so much 🖤
How could I live 5 years without this song?!
i love all your songs
This is superrrr awesome! Loving it! Sounds like older rock alternative bands and it's addictive
Happy birthday to me :D I just discovered this. It's more 90s than the nineties lol
Skating Polly are the band I never knew I needed to listen to.
Here I am again, can’t get enough. Pey’s backing vocals in this one are such a key element couldn’t imagine this one without them.
Thanks to Shirley from garbage for introducing to this band.
I love that band
Just wow ... this is amazing
hey you guys should add lyrics in the details :)
Lucky neighbors next to that basement.
That's up to interpretation lol. I'd be pissed if I lived next to kids like this, no matter how good the music is.
Yes
Is kurt living inside you ?
lol
I will comment your comment. Maybe you forgot this song and I will be your reminder.
Kurt reborn... Maybe.
I mean polly .... c mon obvious nirvana influence plus this song sound just like polly at the start.
peyton chose the band name because she was into roller derby at the time and thought that polly was a cool feminine name lol not everything is some sort of nirvana reference
During quaratine I'm nostalgic for when I first found this band. Right before quarantine
So much raw talent.
You are amazing. I would say I can't wait to see what's in store but you have already made it. Anything else is just bonus.
Dont know why i'm here but it's pretty cool !
that is some crushing power....great stuff
Impressive production. 🤙❤️
Wow. This is awesome. Thanks youtube recomendations.
Awesome.
i loved
very nice!!!!love it!!
Outstanding
Nice! Why is the guitarist not shown in the video??

I love my doctor too.
Dear fucking god please play Dublin Ireland, this is so amazing... me and my gf would love to see you live!
It kind of sounds like Nirvana, but in a cool feminine way... LOVE IT
maybe because it has a quiet refrain and a loud chorus. and the authenticity
This song reminds me of ''poison's gone''
Umm there were women bands that toured with Nirvana that were better than them

So it sounds like hole?
This just plain kicks ass!
This is soooo good!
Deveria ter mais reconhecimento
3:07 "honey, those weird little girls next door are out in the road!!"
The chorus is too hardcore for my weak little soul, but I'm absolutely obsessed with the verses
Lunar Sagittarius, I’m a Pisces and I can relate
Can't relate mate
Yeah the chorus is corny af but the verses cool.
Meli D. Aha imagine a ♋️ (me )
I’m an Aries. It’s perfectly chaotic for me :)
Omg! I really love the songso amazing!
AWESOME!!
Art.
I love this.
so cool this was
I just discovered these girls. I still buy record albums.....Going to get one or more of "SKATING POLLY" to add to my music.
