Making fun Attack Attack! / crabcore is so 2008, but this spoof video is too funny and too well-executed not to post. Everything about it is on point, right down to the color palette all these grassy field / behind-the-warehouse-dad-works-in videos use to achieve a dim, sunset-like glow.

Is crabcore dead yet?

MS reader Ajax sent us a link to a video filmed in 2007 of the band In Truth Be Valor, showcasing what might be the first recorded instance of the crab-crouch.

This video is hysterical for a million reasons, BUT…

1. It’s hilarious when the camera zooms out around the 0:50 mark and there’s all of 6 kids (I counted) standing there watching, motionless!
2. “Everybody get your hands up!”
3. Crab-crouch around 1:10.
4. The “singing.”
5. Everything.
6. etc.

So there you have it. The unsung heroes of a generation. Blame them for Attack Attack!.

I saw this on Stuff You Will Hate today. I think it’s fake. I hope it’s fake. I can’t find any mention of it on the Boss website. Or anywhere else. Christ, this had better be fake.
