I really enjoy the voice cracking. Not sure why but I always have, feels so much more raw and authentic.

Is that true @xashadellic? I never thought about it. I mean, "hard" implies something you have to develop, or something you have to be conscious of or you'll fuck it up. It seems like anyone could get a voice crack, say if they don't warm up...People like Brody and The Coathangers' drummer, that's just their voice, whether by circumstance or by cigarettes. I think I'll disagree with you here... ...as well as on the topic of The Distillers. Can't stand em. Blech >:(

Ikr. I was a little taken back by how young they are......but then I instantly felt relief cuz this just gave me hope that the future isn't filled with a bunch of Lilly white daisey madens oblivious to what good music sounds like. Of course my generation saw the rise of the "boy band," and charted a song called " mmm bop" at number 1 for way longer than I would care to admit. Regardless, these kids shred and it fills my heart with joy. I can't stop listening! More indeed!

Heard this track on the radio the other day. Haven't gotten it out of my head since.
You're all incorporated So you don't get investigated I'm not abbreviated or deflated I'm trying to be appreciated You know what I know son don't lie, you know what I know You know what I know son don’t hide all your sinners, flaunt 'em like winner, like a creep Fine let's leave it outside. I'd sure hate to keep you up all night. If you were looking for an opposable wife, pick me, I'm sweet. Fine? You know I'm not fine. So why'd ya do it again this time? If you wanna wanna see a dog's bad bite pick me I'm free and they're cheap They're always in the gutter when the crutches fall They're not your mother's call They're always in the gutter with crutches fall, hangin' round It’s kinda sick but I like to watch the big men losing clout, It’s kinda sick but I’d like to finally scream about something else. Fine. I'll be the good guy, make haste to keep you satisfied and when you're looking for a son of a bitch to bite pick me, I'm sweet. Fine? You know I'm not fine. So why'd ya do it again this time? If you were looking for a loud bad night, pick me, I don't leave Fine. Let's keep it outside, just leave me in the dark tonight. They're cheap, but I'm free

More like this! This is so powerful, raw and legit!!! What's even more amazing? They can all play all the instruments. No prepressed, stamped and fabricated pop prince(sses) here. True, legit musicians.
Notice all acquaintances, write in blog, share videos, I do my best to divulge Skating Polly. As a guy with more than 40 years who has long enjoyed good music I say: this band deserves to be known everywhere! ..
At the start didn't expect to enjoy this as much as I did. Honestly super enjoyable thanks for the music
We at Sound of Belch once again commend the enormous efforts that Kelli, Peyton and Kurtis have put together to release yet another video made with heart and dedication. Personally, They're Cheap is one of our favorite songs included in The Make It All Show, which is also one of our absolute favorite albums from Skating Polly AND from the year of 2018! The lyrical content together with the raw emotion of the guitars and the externalization of all these forces through the voice and screams of Kelli is something absolutely climatic, like the last generation of true rock n' rollers managed to pull off. The funny thing is that Skating Polly can emulate this genuine Rock feeling while appealing to a new generation that is not so use to such rebellious sounds. Thank you so much, to the band and to those who keep supporting these amazing young artists!
the color story on this is perfect

One of the best skating polly songs❤️❤️
I love hearing how her vocals have changed and gotten stronger and better and more interesting. I never get sick of this band!

I just don't understand why SP hasn't become huge. They're just brilliant. Oh my lord. If they came out in the 90's ?!?! Wish they would come to Alaska!!!
This band consistently shatters expectations, holy fucking christ.

Thank god some of the youthful people are still angry and weird. This is what we need
Somehow the conversation at work last night came around to us asking each other what our grandparents' favorite songs were (I have no idea for my own) and I'm getting a mix of songs from the 1920s to the 1970s. Right now I'm realizing someone listening to this today will one day be a grandma/grandpa for whom this was their favorite song and that just makes me smile so genuinely
No band in 34 years have made me feel 16 again until SP
I adore this band now 😍
Absolute shame that I only now discovered this. So many great Songs, really awesome!!! \m/

All of Skating Polly’s music cannot be listened to just once. If I hadn’t come back to this song after the first listen I would not be putting this on repeat several times a day.
Kelli's vocals with the scream is so cool
Holy hell I can’t get enough of this band. I’m a 15 year metal vocalist and these kids can hang with best of us. They remind me of my own kids and I’d be fuckn floored if my kids played this kind of music. Keep going guys, the music industry needs bands like you. This world is saturated with pop and carbon copy creeps and you three are the real fuckn deal. 🤟🏻
Wow
Idk how this isn't more popular
fantastic song
when i heard this on spotify for the first time, i literally went "woah" out loud when she started screaming lol. this is amazing
"I don't leave" powerful lyric. Skating Polly is the absolute greatest.
love it, will love it more in liverpool next year.
I've listened to this three times already in the last 12 or so minutes and I'm back again! This is my new favorite band. :D

You gals and guy have this indescribable raw energy... I love it.
Literally the best bands I've heard in years
the saviors of rock n' roll...nothing less.
Great band. Its good to see a new generation carrying on the rock music tradition I grew up with in the 1990s. 🖤
this kept popping up in my feed and i kept ignoring it, glad i finally clicked. i’ve never really seen a female voice with that kind of ‘bubbly, hiccupy’ style go for a more screaming approach l, loved it :D
as soon as the guitar came in, I fell in love
I usually only like one or 2 songs of a lot of the artists I listen too but I just keep listening and damn they are all so good!
This song is a legit banger!! Now im waiting for the day i turn on the radio and hear yall
This is one of my favorite music videos, and I grew up through the 80s/90s and mtv. If every band had videos like this (still), i think the world would be a better place! So glad you popped up in my algorithm the other day!
I just stumbled on them and I'm a fan already.
I love everything about this
