Course of Empire, yes? That video is SO 90s.
I saw them 3-4 times back when, and all of the guys in my social circle liked them a lot, but they were never my absolute favorites. Still, fun -- especially with 2 drummers.

My best friend in high school was obsessed with the lead singer.
Never did see them live, but did play the cd to death.

At the time, I swore he was Gavin Rossdale's twin. Now I can tell the difference.

Mere, your avatar is throwing me off. I thought Dalya posted your comments.
I was thinking "Man, she must have been at least nine years old when she saw them."

I do not have a clue who this band is...and that's not like me.

They were very fun live, loved the hell out of telepathic last words!
Funny thing is I used to get VHS tapes in the mail for various alternative and metal videos in the early to mid 90's. Infested was on one of them!

ta, but nope never heard of them. heard of most of the bands also mentioned there...especially the ones they toured with, but not them. Guess they were more regional in their appeal.

Interesting side note,
Michael Jerome, one of the drummer in COE is currently playing for John Cale of The Velvet Underground!

Hmm, I had a listen and I was distinctly underwhelmed. It's no "Stand and Deliver" by Adam and the Ants, I'll tell you that...

This recording didn't do them justice. If I remember correctly, only Chad recorded drums for this album and Michael Jerome joined them later... although he shows up on the album sleeve.
This video also splices the music badly.
They definitely blew the doors off live.

Whatevs, that's totally Gavin Rossdale.
