First off, I love my Fuel TV. Most of their shows and programs are unreal. From Fins and On Surfari, to the surf videos and contests that they run, they definitely do things right. As a non-skater/snowboarder, I’m even addicted to much of their skating and snow programming. Capping all this off is their news show which serves as a news recap program for the action sports industry, The Daily Habit.
The Daily Habit brings you up to date on the latest contest results, industry moves, sponsorships, etc., and features live interviews and performances by live bands. For the most part, the bands and groups they feature are insane, catchy and have you running to iTunes to download the latest single. On occasion, The Daily Habit gets things horribly wrong.
The above performance by Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros serves as a perfect example as to why The Daily Habit needs to better screen their performers. Further, this clip should serve as evidence as to why hipsters should never be a protected class under law. Go ahead, try getting this hipster ho-down shit out of your head. Jesus Christ Superdouche!
Edward Sharpe – if you’re reading this – it’s okay. Your father can’t hurt you anymore.

I absolutely loved this
holy cow! i was watching one day when this came on. I was mad at myself for even watching – but I was oddly fascinated how it just kept getting WORSE
I read alot of what’s published here on DailyStoke, and find it mostly entertaining. Still, I can’t disagree more with your dismissal of Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zero’s. Douchey music? Linkin Park, Paramore, Nickelback – now that’s pure cock-rock. At least this band brings an inventive (albeit nostalgic) sound to an indie scene saturated with father-haters. Edward Sharpe’s music seems more about living free. I’d give props to FUEL TV for giving them the credit they deserve. And you? Open your mind past mainstream music and let go of indie artist stereotypes.

Holy crap – I’m REALLY mad at you, ASP Addict!! I WANT MY 5 MINUTES BACK!!!!
Why?? Why did you make me watch that to see what you were talking about??!!
Wow..that was painful.
(Insert rolling-eyes-smiley-emoticon and tongue-sticking-out emoticon here, and for good measure, insert the one with the steam coming out of the emoticon’s ears, too!)
Yeah wtf I agree with the above. Listen to some other stuff by them. They aren’t hipster
And your commentary is why surf jocks should stay away from music criticism.
I think the woman is an incredible singer and both have great presence and energy.
Go listen to Jack Johnson, surf jock.
I agree with those that suggest this band/group has a presence. I just find their presence painful to tolerate.
Unless they grew up in a commune, Edward Sharpe and the pixie singer did not grow up looking like that and acting like that. Jack Johnson did.
“The people” must all be surf jocks. Jack has gone multiplatinum, while Edward Sharpe has not. I guess humanity has a broader appreciation for simple, catchy tunes, than it does for cringe inducing rot.

You’re such a square.
This jock-rock may be more to ASP’s liking. . . .
