Pissed

Post-hardcore rockers Pissed Jeans recently made a video for their track False Jesii Part 2, off their 2009 Sub Pop release, King of Jeans. The video exudes an emphatic apathy.

To quote a particularly true statement from the Pitchfork review, "Korvette's observations, on King of Jeans, they're organized into shout-back slogans cathartic enough to keep enraged 9-to-5ers from going postal: on opener 'False Jesii Part 2', Korvette answers a litany of social pressures-- from going to the gym to wearing a 'tight black shirt'-- with a boisterous holler of 'I don't bother!' before celebrating his slothfulness with a playground-taunt chorus of 'nyah nyah nyah nyah nyah,' all to the steady beat of a tambourine, no less."
