Rosenstock’s Nausea Video Is A Year Old, But Still Pretty Sick

Jeff Rosenstock

It’s been a year since Jeff Rosenstock released his Nausea music video, and it hasn’t lost any of its charm.

At first glance, it seems like a perfect reenactment of your typical drunken pub performance. Rosenstock’s singing and piano-bashing is interrupted by a beer bottle to the head thrown by an angry, beanie-clad audience member, and from that point on the video is a riot. A bottle-induced concussion results in some very strange confetti vomit, and it’s not long before the whole pub crowd is blowing brightly-coloured chunks.

It might sound horrible, but somehow it manages to be as hilarious as it is colourful. Of course, the video would be incomplete without a boy wearing a snapback and holding a sign that reads “Free Knives”. The end result is a wild rave filled with confetti, knives, and making out, all set to Rosenstock’s upbeat rock vibes.

The whole thing needs to be seen to be believed:

Rosenstock will use his fourth visit to Australia to promote his 2015 album ‘We Cool?’ with an 11-date national tour. The tour will also showcase Rosenstock’s collaborative work with Chris Farren as musical duo Antarctigo Vespucci.

Tickets go on sale on Wednesday 27 January at 9am.
