Soul Glo: Tiny Desk Concert

We have hosted rap legends, Broadway musicals, pop stars, world-renowned classical musicians, indie rockers and folkies - there's a universe of music at the Tiny Desk that keeps expanding. But we have never featured a hardcore punk band at the NPR Music office ... until Soul Glo.
Hardcore and punk are vital not only in how I understand the world but also challenge myself; it's music that feels first, then screams. Soul Glo crystalizes its anger and anxiety - about trauma, anti-Blackness, mortality, survival - with a pummeling prism of classic hardcore speed, psychedelic noise, sludgy riffs and a spitfire vocalist with exasperated-but-exhilarating run-ons, who finds moments to step back and bounce like an emcee would.
But punk can also be unpredictable because, at its heart, punk does not want to be contained. Soul Glo's set features tracks from 2022's still thrilling Diaspora Problems, plus a loosie from last year. Halfway through "Driponomics," Pierce Jordan gets on the Desk, but dips in and out of the microphone's range to commune with the throng of punks gathered. The same happens with the band's outrageously chaotic and catchy closer "Gold Chain Punk (whogonbeatmyass?)," but what the mics don't capture in Jordan's verse, the crowd more than ably makes up for in the gang vocals that feverishly scream back the hook. (Yes, that is me stepping into the frame to get a mic back in Jordan's general vicinity.) Oh, and in a Tiny Desk of several firsts, a mosh pit broke out in the office; I'm still smiling about it.

This is hilarious how they are constantly holding themselves back from just absolutely DESTROYING the room.
Slammed dance forever!
the sound guy must have had an anxiety attack when that expensive mic gets treated like an old dented sm58!
"URGE TO JUMP OFF DESK RISING........RISING....."
I mean its quite literally where people work so ya know they probably didn’t want to destroy it to much
i wish they did, only decent content they'd have made that day. this is terrible hardcore
Whoever decided to choose Soul glo needs a raise
Ta DAY!

Fired*
@@RobertSloveri don’t think i could do scream vox without touching the mic. it’s pretty impressive on their part.
@@serious_about_men scream vox? learning how to actually sing would be a better use of your time and energy!
MORE HARDCORE ON TINY DESK PLEASE
ABSOLUTELY
WHERE DO I SIGN?
jesus piece or spite would be sick
Please bring Zulu or sanction
@@erikpaz805SECONDING ZULU i need that
Good to see that punk is not dead !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
my dude, hardcore is more alive than it ever has been, and rightfully so.
It’s one of the best punk bands out!! Their album Diaspora Problems will go down as one of the best of the decade for me.
Agree 100%
morgana the punk head?
Congrats to Lars who has probably been pushing for something like this for a decade.
SOUL GLO ON NPR ‼️🔥‼️🔥‼️🔥🔥‼️🔥‼️🔥‼️🔥‼️
ZULU NEXT ‼️ ZULU NEXT ‼️
Glad to see some hardcore on Tiny Desk. People will not like this lol.
Never listened to it before, but I fuccin love it
Never heard of them. Not my style, but it seems they are good in their genre.
big win for punk and hardcore
I would've LOVED this group if I was 30 years younger. My nerves can't take it now but glad to know there are still groups out there raging against the darkness and riling people up.
Love that the drummer playing with Hot Rods is the only thing that qualifies this as a Tiny Desk.
Cant wait for the Chat Pile one
MY BLOOD IS DIRTY GARBAGE WATER
Why do people have to live outside?
@@crieseasily Hammers and grease!
Do you think?? 👀👀
@@TrickleMeThat19 bruh they better send my body to arby's after that
this is AMAZING!! Never thought I'd see a hardcore band on Tiny Desk. PLEASE, more of this!! there are so many creative, innovative, *important* bands in the world of heavy music right now. So many voices that should be heard :)
Did u see Turnstile Tiny Desk?
@@Glitterkid yesss!! loved that, and loved how they changed the arrangements to fit the vibe of tiny desk. i wish tiny desk sessions were available on spotify :')
Tiny Desk is going hard this morning; never letting us down.
I'm not usually super into non-melodic type music. But this was amazing. Like a wall of sound, great rhythm, and angsty vocals. This was cathartic. I'm gonna have to go look closer at their lyrics.
Dude their lyrics are 💯
Theyre so good.
diaspora problems is an amazing album i recommend
Once you dive into their lyrics, you will connect with the emotions even more. Diaspora Problems is really a special album.
They’re special. They’re also as hardcore as it gets 🤘🏼
Love the contrast between the softly spoken, polite man and the screeching, raging persona once the music starts
I booked these guys to play at my college last year. It was the best show I’d ever seen. Pierce is a class act and later offered a joint to me. Bless up. Free Palestine.
“Free Palestine” you corny
@@derek7284I didn’t know standing with a country going thru a genocide was corny, but there ain’t nothing wrong w being on that cob imo
@derek7284 go play in traffic
Stand With Israel, but you're so lucky I want to see them live so bad.
@@derek7284 braindead comment
Real punk!!!!👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
I absolutely love that we got a tiny desk version of such hard hitting and aggressive music
This is the most punk band I've seen in the last 10 years. Awesome set
I am very fortunate to say that these guys were the first punk show I saw live, one of the best shows I've seen to this day.
"Shout out T-pain" - I'm dead...
Have you seen his cover of War Pigs?
Amazing performance by an important band to the entire scene. Thank you NPR and Tiny Desk for introducing Soul Glo to many who would otherwise never have been blessed with their hardcore greatness 🤘
This goes as hard as dennys grand slam
Can always count on NPR to make my day better!
🤘🤘🤘 Tiny Heavy Desk
When I heard about this I thought it was crazy, but it turns out they did too.
Did not expect this Tiny Desk. Awesome.
I am truly awake right now! It's 6 am, I open up my notification, and I get punk rock. Thanks Tiny Desk, even though I'm still trying to recover😂😂😂.
I am so here for the hardcore Renaissance! In a world where hip hop goes country just because it's what sells, the purity and report from the ground floor feeling, is what draws people to hardcore.
Better than a shot of espresso.
this is wild! played a parking lot show at fest in FL with them and will always be a core memory. soul glo making npr!!!!
Awesome !!! Just amazing !!! 😁🤘
That dissonant guitar and heavy bass on this version of driponomics goes so hard.
best tiny desk i've seen so far
Incredible!!!! Freaking loved this.
Love this! Ol Dirty meets Black Flag
Yeah 😂😂😂
Nice to see the tiny desk crew really getting into it. And nice to see a hardcore band on here, especially Soul Glo!
Needed this. So stoked they got put up for tiny desk ❤
Thank you Tiny Desk for introducing me to this amazinggggggg band. Their last album got no skips - all bangers
HUGE Desk! ❤
I had to do a double take because I couldnt believe it
Someone is incredibly based at NPR
9:35 Chappell Roan's wig livin' it up on the shelf 🤘
I've seen many a Tiny Desks, but I never saw this coming. I mean, I was excited PUP was on (even if from their home) and they're just some ripping pop-punk. Thanks for the dose of energy from one of the best contemporary hardcore bands around in Soul Glo-I needed this. Hopefully, they aren't "Banned in D.C." like some other legends after this one. ;)
How happy the crowd is 🤘🤣
I'm so confused, and I don't know why I can't stop watching this. I have never heard of these guys ever in my life, but I think I like it... I think
This was interesting. Thank you Tiny Desk for showing a range of artists and music.
Love the drip on all of them, especially the keffiyeh 🇵🇸
This is the coolest guest decision Tiny Desk has made in a looooong time. Soul Glo needs more ears, not the [insert] major label millionaire artist.
I remember saying almost 10 years ago that soul glo was the most important band in DIY punk. Look at em now!!
I haven't enjoyed hardcore that much in at least 10 years...reminds me of the early 2000's San Diego style I grew up on, meets ODB
Guitarist REALLY feeling the music
I can't stop to watch this concert
This rules MSPaint next
this one
This is fukng amazing!❤🔥
Seeing Soul Glo play Tiny Desk just made my year. Legendary Philly band!!! Yall CRUSHED it!!!
I never expected Soul Glo to perform on Tiny Desk. This is such an awesome performance
LOVE IT!
it's cool how they still tune their guitars
My cat was so scared when i watched this
😂
One of the best performances I've seen!
Love to see some punk at NPR ❤
I have watched all of these multiple times. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. A+++
If you haven't heard of these guys, thank God you have now they are well worth the investment ✊🏻
This goes so hard.
a perfect voice for hardcore punk
This was absolutely incredible. More of this please
incroyable , retour direct dans ma jeunesse, je m'attendais vraiment pas à ça merci merci merci
