WTF IS THIS ABOUT?!?! I WISH I could understand what is going on, I just can’t. It’s J-Pop, it’s metal, it’s rap, it’s deathcore then it’s techno.
Is this a campaign of some sort? I bet this is some Japanese thing poking fun at all of our dumb attempts at music in recent years, cuz that’s the vibe I get from it. Be warned, this video is retarded.
Fuckin LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
This music is like listening to every recorded second of anything Adam Sandler has ever done while on acid and Downs Syndrome.
Click here to listen to this amazing shit. Rat AIDS! Be sure to listen to the other albums that they have up. ENJOY!
Sadly I just watched this abortion of a music video and it’s a fucking boy band with instruments, A modern day Motley Crue plus tons of LAME! God dammit, if this is a band to watch then I hope the end of the world is happening this year. This is nothing more than a band that exists only to sell their records and shirts at Hot Topic and keep their sales going, and to get teenage girls to have dirty thoughts while on the bus ride to middle school. Disgusting. I feel dirty having watched this.
NOW SIT BACK AND ENJOY IT BOYS! I’m going to go destroy my face with a cheese grater instead.
This is just ridiculous. Music and lyrics are just awful. Lyrics after the jump, I’d just avoid them entirely. If you somehow survive this and the lyrics, I’ll even throw up the bonus Katy Perry cover they have made!
Lawyers and law firm employees are acting in this music video…
In an effort to keep up with all of their cool fans, Nickelback has released a lyric video for “Bottoms Up“. No seriously. Not only is the trend of lyric videos just fucking lame, this is by far the worst adaptation I’ve seen yet. Yes, the music is generic and bland (Nickelback’s best work) but this video is just fucking dumb. I’ll be looking forward to this shit song being played on the radio, at the bar, at the stadiums and at the venues for the next 3 years. Just when I thought Hell Yeah’s “Alcoholin’ Ass” was bad…yeesh.
I feel sorry for Metallica. They set themselves up for it though. Kirk looks bored as hell. James is really into it. This all seems fake. We’re all being trolled. Congrats on their record sales though. I’m sure it’s the worst thing with Metallica‘s name on it since St. Anger.
THERE IS NO GOD.
Cleveland, Ohio’s hardcore/thrash band KILLING IT are doing everything but that. Tell me you’ve never been to a show and heard this same song from a local band before. I’m saddened at the fact that Jim LaMarca use to be in Chimaira and now he is in this band. I usually only post things I enjoy, I try not to trash on bands and give horrible negative opinionated posts….but this….is just awful.
Hope he is having fun though. Best of luck to this band, this will be the last time I post about them.
While Davis‘ voice is still good enough to make the girls panties soak and wet, he cannot save what is going on around him. Korn has always been dark and fucking heavy. Those guitars tuned to A standard made Korn so powerful and helped brought out the emotion Davis put out. That shit was fucking deep. Everything before “Untouchables” was gold…now turn to 2011 and we have this electronic poppy bullshit. It sucks the seriousness out of Korn and makes it trendy/mainstream. As if they weren’t fucking mainstream enough.
Ah, I’m fucking sick of all of this electronic metal mash up bullshit. This album art fucking sucks too.
KORN To Release ‘The Path Of Totality’ In December.
“But this one is unlike any KORN record. It’s even unlike any record released before.
“The Path Of Totality” is an experimental album which finds KORN shifting gears and exploring new territory. That should hardly come as a shock to the band’s diehard fans, as KORN exploded onto the scene in the’90s and established themselves as hard rock game-changers from that point on.
For “The Path Of Totality”, the band collaborated with some of the leading dubstep and electronic producers in the world, including Skrillex,Excision, Datsik, Noisia, Kill the Noise, and 12th Planet. The result is something completely new, yet utterly and definitively KORN. Leave it to a band like KORN to continue to reinvent itself two decades deep into its career.
“The title ‘The Path Of Totality’ refers to the fact that in order to see the sun in a full solar eclipse, you must be in the exact right place in the exact right time,” KORN frontman Jonathan Davis explained. “That’s how this album came together. I think all the producers feel the same way. I’m not sure it could ever happen again”
The View:
Reed’s banter is annoying and the riff underneath it is boring and incredibly repetitive. The James Hetfield chorus is bad at best….and I wonder if he realizes he has become a parody of himself. I am not amused.
I had anticipation for this album until I heard this track. Bah!
“This Halloween season, 98.9 The Rock is bringing on the metal with Freakers Ball!
See Five Finger Death Punch, the reunited Anthrax, Hatebreed, Rev Theory, and the Club Wars winner!”
Hold the fuck up KQRC (98.9 The Rock), you’re throwing the annual Halloween concert and having FFDP headlining? Not only that…but over Anthrax!? I’m not a fan of either honestly but give Anthrax the headlining spot. They just opened for Megadeth, Slayer and Metallica for fuck sake at 4PM to an empty stadium (It barely had anybody in it). Anthrax have paid their dues and they should be headlining over Five Finger Death Punch, no questions asked. Ugh, I feel sorry for Anthrax…having direct support to these fuck wads who will probably have to perform in front of a bunch of faux hawked, Affliction t-shirt clad douchebag bro-hards.
Will Kansas City stop pretending that FFDP is good music? Also, choose a different band than Hatebreed to be “the heaviest band on stage”, I’m rather sick of seeing the same line up festival after festival around here. Do I need to bring up past Rock Fest line ups and Freakers Ball lineups? They are all the same rotating crap, year after year.
Fuck you KQRC.
albums: Cerebral Bore - Maniacal Miscreation – 2.5 out of 5 – Decent death metal tunes. Got me to headbang but nothing entirely breathtaking or inspiring. Vocals blow horribly.
videos:
Head (ex-Korn guitarist) is apparently working on a new album. From said album comes a single and it will be released to the masses whom await so eagerly on Oct 4th. Cannot wait any longer? Go get some Head here (It’s only a sample clip). Don’t expect anything mind blowing, it’s like Korn….only way worse than anything they have ever made.
Albums -
Asking Alexandria – Reckless and Relentless – 2.5 out of 5: This album needs to pick one or the other genre. It’s metalcore with deathcore breakdowns and weird electronic fuzz happening. The melody of the metalcore is good at times but mostly just garbage. In terms of deathcore they really just use breakdowns, and lots of them…and honestly that was the only thing that held my interest on the entire album. Vocals are good at times, however I got a Atreyu vibe from them most of the time when clean vocals were present. Screaming is good and growling is done very well. I thought the electronic elements added some positive vibe in some areas but it was mostly bullshit. The only song I liked was Morte Et Dabo. There is some talent here, they just need to focus and work on a few things.
Arkona – Slovo – 3 out of 5: Russian folk metal sang with tons of instruments to keep it true to what they are trying to do. The music is good and the vocals aren’t too bad. Drumming and guitars at times are really good, it got me to headbang. While this album is good, it’s just…folk. Folk music, to me, is fun for a listen through and that’s it. Unless it’s done incredibly well…I don’t need to hear it more than once or twice. Hope you like flutes, bagpipes and accordions.
Emmure – Speaker of the Dead – 2 out of 3: Ultra tough guy deathcore styled tunes that bring forth breakdown after shitty breakdown. Nothing on this album has any redeeming qualities. Very few riffs on this album and they are boring as all hell. The tuned too low to sound brutal guitars just do chug verse after chug verse into a chug chorus into a breakdown….rinse and repeat. There are some effects on the album that were more annoying that helpful. Vocals are good except for the rap/talking parts.
Videos:
I’m going to end today with this. My buddy Ricky posted this up on Facebook and I couldn’t stop laughing. This guy is FUCKING. SERIOUS.
Check out the video for the band “Killing It”. I cannot believe Jim left Chimaira for this shit. Not only is it sad that a guy from an incredible band went on to do this, they happen to put out the worst promo video I’ve ever seen.
