listen to this track then get off ya ass and do something!!!.

Fuckin' Awesome track!!

Slim are a fantastic band and this would have to be my favourite song of theirs.

Everybody should send lots of love to SLIM whenever they can.

ok, a bands playing in a post office??!! i don't get it. don't bands play in bars or practice rooms anymore? still nice song. i wish video directors would think outside the square a little bit.

these guys are doin-it,where is the album or an auck show

What is the release date for the album?!? Damn Slim rock so much!! Auckland shows last week were so fab :) I can't wait for the album......

went to the release gig @ the dux last night. it went off!! these guys rock live. can't wait to see more!

I like Slim...i won two copies of "Drive Thru" offf the Z...much to Phoebes digust!! playing NYE @ the dux w/ the feelers and degrees. k

Just got back from Slim gig at indigo. It was LOUD but luckily I went prepared with earplugs so tonight I can sleep without the sound of a million tv screens ringing through my head. Slim rule. They write some of the best punkrockpop songs around imho. They played a tight gig and invited everyone to come and see their 20mins of fame with Live and Stabbing Westward tomorrow at 7:30pm. The only downer was the epilectic fit inducing lighting that managed to light the crowd never the band. Maybe next time they visit wellies they'd be better suited to Valve? I'd like to see that. and I'll eagerly pay my 10 bucks to see them again soon.

Freakin great set by Slim at the LIve gig. I love watching NZ bands opening for overseas acts and then kicking arse. Well done lads. Live were awesome too, and is was ACE to see Stabbing Westwood uptown at Indigo afterwards!! Oohhh! Rockstars!!

OMG i LOVE this song so much! It RAWKS!!!!!!! (etc etc) Thanks for the CD Channel Z, but i did win two...wheres the other one???

*snif* Why oh why did they re-record this song?? I liked the old versionnnn...

They re-recorded this one two...ohh i liked the old one!

Ooops i clicked on the WRONG ONE! Its DJ SUX that i love! this one is good too

I LOVE THIS SONG VERY MUCH! ITS GREAT (read more in 'moneys gone'...)

Hee hee *crusty*...

Apparently the frontman from Slim called "Just" by Radiohead "You do it to yourself"....TWICE.

Their music is good, but this kind of a crime against music is unforgivable, sorry but you don't muck up Radiohead song names.....unless you are some sort of music loving FAKE.

This weekend @ westpac trust stadium with Deluxeboy and Goodshirt and Clarke too apparently...$12 on the door or score free tickets from the Channel Z jeep. Starts at about 10am

i am one of the lucky little bastards who saw Slim at christchurch orientation on saturday and damn they kicked ass! if you ever get a chance to see these guys live do it THEY ROCK!

Slim kicks ass, they are fuckin wicked musicians man and their videos are supreme.....

Thats real cool how Real World is on that ad, with the real barrow... (export gold?) It's the one Slim song I actually like tons, & the only single I don't have on a compilation CD (I have Rise Up, Bullet In My Hand & Low) Dammit, I really like Real World...

fuck this, read below one... *wheel barrow*

I saw Slim at the OUSA Orientation week last weekend. I only went to see fur patrol. But Slim definately rocked. First time I had seen them. So much energy oozed off them and into the crowd. We were up in the front row but Slim's loyal fans 'moshed' us to pieces...yay slim

They were okay @ the 4 and rotaries...they sound exactly the same live as they doo on their CD! That guy has a cool guitar (the Flying V one)

everytime i see this band they fully rock. nice timing that this gig was on when i was down in chch. kept seeing donald EVERYWHERE i went when i was down there. aaron's son i so cute :D does anyone know when they're going to be up in auckland next?

This seems like the best place to stick my oar in.. Lyrics for Real World and Rise Up! I've got most of them, but I can't figure out a few lines.. The whole section in Real World that starts off 'Hey Yeah, step in to line' and from Rise Up, the line that sounds like 'Got friends slip away' or something, and the actual 'this song you <?> rise up' part.

Anyone out there with sharper ears than me? :)

Hey dude I'm not sure what the lyrics for 'Real World' are but that bit in 'Rise Up' is "gotta find a simple way" then that other bit goes "this song you gotta rise up". Sweet. Check them out live, they ROCK. I had been singing that bit in "low" that goes 'play a pretty song dont ever leave your job" like 'play a pretty song, dont ever leave your god', Damn. Fellow Fan.

Yeah! You rock. :)

Are all Slim videos the same?

Slim are known for the standard 'band in a room' vid. Nothing wrong with that I say.

Pooz, i heard "DJ Sux" on RDU the other day, and then i realised that the version on the album is rather different from the one i fell in love with...where can i get a version of the superior rendition??!! i like it WAy more then the album one!

I think the original may be the first track on the Brat compilation. Not entirely sure if thats the version your after or if it is different than the album version but it came out well before the album release.

Yeah Slim is a good band!!
They are Foo Fighters fans, which is a good thing!!

I dont know which version i like better,
being accoustomed to the first i didnt like the album version, but its kinda grown on me. RISE UP! great song great band.

Anyone know what the Slim guys are up to at the mo? Haven't heard anything from them for a while and I need my Slim fix!

im told they were meant to write new stuff during winter, but that turned into touring. through to the pacifier tour. so they may be working on new stuff.

Apparently (but dont quote me on this) the drummers gone of and become the lead singer of another band....thats what his cuzzy told me anyhow, she also said slim broke up.... but I'm not quite ready to belive that yet. :S

he has been the singer of fuce? i think for quite a while. I also heard that slim broke up, i heard from an unreliable source.
