It's been years since I've heard this band. It suddenly popped into my head from out of nowhere and I immediately had to listen to it. Now I'm thinking about my high school days.
Same with Jawbox, Archers of Loaf, The Meices, and Superchunk. These were bands who I listened to since 93'. 28 years later and not only do they still kick ass, they still make music.
***** HAHAHAHA Millenial!!!! The simple fact that you use this word attest the fact that you haven't been around for quite a long time! I have it on a better qualitty on an old SubPop network VHS, and think it deserves at least the same treatment here.
pivot1022 I completely understand it wont be in Hight Definition, because it wasn't meant to be like that. I just suggested a new upload on 480p and de-interlaced. the way the it should be. If I still have the old Sub Pop Network VHS, I would do it.
Grew up in Tacoma and Lakewood, very familiar with old western state. 1992 was my graduation. My 18 y/o loves this band. He said the first time, "Sounds like Nirvana, but better".
This band still fucking kicks ass. I am so glad Beavis & Butthead aired, because I found a lot of great bands solely based on that show. Seaweed, Superchunk, Archers of Loaf, Jawbox, Helium, and Meices.
In 2009 I was in middle school, just discovering punk and grunge. For my birthday I got one of those 100 packs of blank CD-Rs and burned every album by every PNW band I could find. I wanted to go further than just the core four grunge groups. Out of all the smaller bands I discovered, Seaweed is one of my absolute favorites. Thanks, Clerks soundtrack for turning me on to these guys.
Sub-Pop blew it with this band and so did Hollywood Records. They deserved better. First time I heard of them Nirvana was just bubbling up into MTV about to explode in the fall of ‘91. This older kid moves in next to my friend Brad and he was from Seattle (or probably -and hour outside of Seattle) and said “the next band to blow up will be Seaweed. They’re on Sub-Pop and they’re the shit!” I got Four and rarely saw this video on 120 Minutes. Hollywood signed Seaweed and Into Another and basically broke up both bands. Guess they had to use that Queen Greatest Hits cash on something. I wish they’d have known what they were doing. The Merge album is really good too. Aaron did an awesome interview on a podcast all about Sub-Pop (he worked there) and the band’s career and reunion
The video is a parody of Soul Asylum's video to Runaway Train. Soul Asylum's video starts out with a caption of how every year X-number of children go missing, and throughout the video they flash pics of missing children with the name and comment of "missing since so-and-so." I first saw this vid on the original Beavis and Butt-Head back in the day, told a friend about it who didn't have cable, and seemed offended.
I love the song and the video... I know 2008 is a long time ago, but things have changed on RUclips since then, and we're due for a HQ upload of this vid.
0:10 Butthead: These guys are pretty cool. Beavis: Yeah. They kind of remind me of myself. Butthead: Yeah right Beavis. You remind me of, like, Urkel. Beavis: Shut up, Butthead! I'm cool.
The video arcade was Seattle Funplex, where you could play miniature golf, Lazer Tag, slot cars, a bouncy castle, go carts, over 150 video games, redemption games so you could win tickets for crappy prizes, a kiddie play area by the pizza kitchen for birthday parties, and two batting cages, one softball, one hard. I was working there when this video was shot. If this were even slightly better video quality, I could probably figure out where I am in the video, but for those that have seen the better vid, I am the guy with the long hair and dark glasses making out with my girlfriend at the time (what was her name? Leanne I think) up against one of the video games that we were supposed to be pretending to play... Other bands that played there and filmed footage for the possible use in videos included, but not limited to, Pearl Jam, Presidents of the United States of America (Pot USA, Presidents, those guys that did that song about the kitty on the foot, etc.), and Soundgarden. Man, that was a terrible place to work, with lousy pay, no benefits, crappy hours, incompetent management, BUT we got to play free video games before they went public... /sing "Meeeeeemoriieees!"
@@blaQI_roch the building at the end was the old Western State Hospital at Ft Steilacoom Park in Lakewood. Some of the other places look familiar but I am not sure. Where they ride under the bridge while going downhill kind of looks like Ruston by the old smelter but it might not be
1st rating, first view, first comment. I thought it was a pretty individual sound and it wasn't that diluted by production. It was enjoyable and interesting. Also the video was pretty fun to watch.
Pretty generic post-Nirvana. Like Local H and so many others that just came in like a tidal wave. Not bad, not great. I love this era but people forget how everyone burned through the same vibe of a few compelling bands and it all fizzled fast.
Sorry i hear gru ge more then punk. This sou ds like the embryo of grunge. This then tad. Green river, melvins, screaming trees, sound garden and then the godlike music of nirvana.

2020 and I still love this band.
Check out The Meices. Preferably 'Daddys Gone to California'. Both vocalists have those really soaring bittersweet vox.
2022 and only just heard this song for the 1st time. It's class.
@@ThirdRules 2023 just heard this song...
2023 and I don't think I'll ever stop loving them. Actions & Indications got stuck in my car CD player for years and I'd still be fine with that.
It's been years since I've heard this band. It suddenly popped into my head from out of nowhere and I immediately had to listen to it. Now I'm thinking about my high school days.
seaweed is the encarnation of the word underated cool band
not to me but i see
Non ti ho visto ti ho vissuto.
Same with Jawbox, Archers of Loaf, The Meices, and Superchunk. These were bands who I listened to since 93'. 28 years later and not only do they still kick ass, they still make music.
@@nickcavini I saw em with quicksand.Jawbox,gvsb etc still hold up
Was blessed enough to come across "Weak" in high school in Arkansas back when we bought CD's on word of mouth or adverts in magazines.
Been in steilacoom all my life and it's awesome to see the old western state in the back. Nobody's said anything about that. Bummer it's gone now.
Gotta love the "Skate Rock" from the 90's. !!
FUCK YEP
they tore down the ruins of old western state that are in this video, but the spirit of seaweed still haunts my neighborhood park :)
found them this year genuinely my favorite band ive ever found baffles me that they weren't bigger
i first saw this on beavis and butthead back in the day and im still rocking this song in 2021.. get song for token too... happy clouds everyone!
Respect is key!
0:29 Beavis: "Hey! That's my bike! That dude ripped off my bike!!"
Was this song on Beavis and butthead?
Cruze
Yes it is. Look it up, it is hilarious.
That tv show had so many great indie bands on it. It was the sole reason I discovered Archers of Loaf, Superchunk, The Meices, and Jawbox.
Fuckin classic song. Only got to see these guys twice, man those were the days
Dear Sub Pop, I think it's time to upload a new version of this video with a better quality, isn't?
Best.

So will the old 56k modems be the new trend among hipsters?
xmadux "Ugh lo-fi, You're a hipster" The fuck bro? I agree the sound quality kinda sucks now but it's not to big a deal, Lo fi is fucking awesome.

Try it at 144p. Looks even better.

Out now of the old house
Backwards to a different chapter

They helped to introduce me to some of the finest acts of that era.

Underrated band
Hope they get a best of album
Naw man. This album itself needs a vinyl repress.
@@creekandseminole Agree 100%
I read that back in 1993, these guys and Green Day opened for Bad Religion. That’s what brought me here. I’m digging this!!!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁
Never got their respect, best band of the 90's!
i dont see it. nothing in musical chops that set them above or anything unique (sound like most bands of that era)
smokinnplatez you have to hear not watch. They had an unique blend of emo, grunge, and melodic hc
Nah, soundgarden imo
Really?
Awesome to see the old western state hospital in the back!

Soul Asylum sucks anyway
Soul Asylum was the shit until that record
@@flyinnelvii3665 absolutely!! that album was far too clean and polished
Very true.
Soul Asylum couldn’t be this good if they tried.
Ótima Banda!!!
good god... I love Seaweed
I’m just finding out about this band…holy shit I’ve been missing out!
One of the key advantages Seaweed has always had is the great, distinct vocals. Sort of a grungy David Lee Roth. I mean that in the best way possible.
His voice reminds me a lot of Guy Picciotto from Fugazi!
Still living it BURN DOWN !
This is awesome!!
This is the 90s
Love this effn song
Stereogum's "30 essential grunge songs" list brought me here 🎵🎶🎵
I miss the world as it once was and will never be again
Duas da manhã e eu volto aqui em.meio a tormenta, para lembrar de uma época que jamais vai sair de mim.
Remind me of the band Far
Awesome music!
SNFU T-shirt. Awesome!
They had great taste!!! Fucking SNFU were the shit!!! Still are!!!
Greatest band to come outta Edmonton.
Thrasher tshirt

I just turned 51 and this was my favorite video when I was 20 ☠️
This song reminds me of how awesome the 90's were.😃
Yeah baby! stole "four" from the librery 20 oddyears ago and still bang this out!!
...nice... thanks for this
great times
Kevin Smith should have used this song in "Clerks".
Instead of Go Your Own Way? Wonder if all the royalties went to Fleetwood on that...
92-95 the peak of the burnouts.
Lakewooooood!!!!!!
Beavis: "Hey, thats my bike! These buttmunches stole my bike!"
I thought they were fart knockers! Hahahahaha
Hey, hey, wait a minute! Those fartknockers stole my bike!

Galaga
Captain America and The Avengers
Gyruss
Galaxy Force II (Super Deluxe Version)
Cyberball

Fucking heshers stole my bike!
jonah hill should have used this as soundtrack of mid 90s
Bomber plates were the best!
Beavis accused the band, Seaweed of stealing his bike. He thinks the bike @ 0:28 was his.

A Captain America and the Avengers arcade game appears in this.
Anthony Soprano Jr on drums
Saw them open for Quicksand at The Roxy in 1993. The fire department made 250 people leave.
