Video The Teenagers - “Love No”

Posted by Rob Simonsen on Fri, Mar 28 at 1:45 PM

Today is the most holy of all holy days (Bruce Springsteen is in town!), and while it’s sacreligious to acknowledge that there is any other musician in the world on today’s holiday, I must admit that I took a brief break from my “All Bruce, All The Time” mantra.

That break? It was to watch the above video for The Teenagers “Love No”. Wow. I must admit the rest of their singles kind of creep me out (especially “Homecoming” with its gross underage sex business), but this song makes me smile. The “you spend soooo much time on your computer” line is pure genius.

Ah well, break is over. Now it’s time to go listen to some more Boss bootlegs and get ready for, dare I say it, the Magic that will be tonight’s performance.

Comments

i don't know about the teenagers. they just seem like one of those hipster-manufactured fashion bands, or a more credible louis XIV. i just don't know what people see in these guys.

and this has nothing to do with their music, but the asian guy is probably the ugliest dude in indie-rock. i'm sorry, but someone had to say it.
