    That video you can tell wasnt directed very good. Looks very amature, or maybe it wad the editing but either way sub par…Babe.

  • ROBERT PLANT said:

    “the drummer” his name is Matt .douche..Babe!!

    Video was fucking terrible, fuck all who don’t agree.

  • Markus said:

    I love it! Soundgarden always had a special sense of humor and this video fits into their style, though they are not primary known for this kind of music videos.

  • SuperSG said:

    “The” single? No more singles? Is that what I’m hearing???

  • kingchaz said:

    Lame.

  • BC said:

    He called “the drummer”, really? I am the only one who could take or leave this guy?

  • warriorwoman25 said:

    Gee, such “Negative Nellys”!! I thought the video came off in the same dry style as Soundgarden’s dry humor that Dave Grohl mentions. Ya gotta lighten up people!!! It was a very amusing video!!

    Loved the video. You don’t have to like it, but damn what whiners

  • Raj said:

    My guess is the people who don’t like the video want a wicked 90′s video with just the band playing wearing flannel shirts or maybe it’s in black and white and equipment is being smashed etc. and it looks psychedelic.

    It’s 2013, there’s really no need to make a video. Even the AIC videos from BGWTB are way different than any 90′s AlC videos. I definitely would have totally different video interpretation of By Crooked Steps.

    The video was fun and cool. They don’t all have to be dead serious or break new ground visually. Dave had a funny idea and they all liked it. “Fuck all who don’t agree”? Come on dude…

  • Mark said:

    I thought the video was horrible, and Dave referring to Matt Cameron as “the drummer” I thought was moderately disrespectful.

  • thefreewheelinmarkarm said:

    It was a funny ass video. It totally looks like so.ethkng dave Grohl had his hands in tho. Could’ve almost been a FF video. I remember them being mildly entertaining.

  • thefreewheelinmarkarm said:

    Where’s my ******* autocorrect?

    Oh there it is.

  • workman said:

    Give us a fuckin break Mark. Dave’s respect for Matt is irrefutable, it was something Dave casually said- not to be taken as disrespect, easy pal. The video was not horrible. Eat it. Why don’t you go shoot one Dick Hurtz, we’ll judge how it turns out.

  • Alex said:

    The video is really funny and i do not get why everyone is so mad about Dave saying “the drummer” it’s not that big of a deal you all know who he was talking about.

  • NiceNcleaN said:

    Humor a missing part of apes and as we see many hairy ones here.

    LMAO this video is fucking makes your tummy fart out loud funny and nice not to see a dark depressing video.

  • Tastes Grungey said:

    Ironic that they bash electronic music in the video, yet Grohl played with Deadmau5. Dude needs to stay behind a drum kit where he belongs.

  • IdleDrew said:

    @Tastes Grungey- the cop that arrests Chris at the end of the video is Deadmau5, without the mask

  • johnny208 said:

    He called him THE drummer not the drummer.
