Snot really are truly unique until you get a Faith No More album.

They’re only “legendary” because like most of the popular nu-metal bands, the first album shows some promise only to get big name producers to make radio rock for the second album. Snot would have gotten much worse if Lynn Strait had lived.

LOL @ Nu-metal apologists. Shit is shit, get a life and rub off your tribal tattoos.

i used to jam the shit outta this album too. the mellow tracks were very un-nu-metal, they kinda predated the nu-scene too. I do agree though that he had not died they probably would have gone on to make some horrible shift into rap-rock. plus Strait was such a nut he probly woulda turned into a snot wieland type frontman.
I think is was a great album, but agree with not reuniting, do something new not nu.

Although I rarely listen to it, Snots’ self titled debut was really cool and I wouldn’t call them nu metal at all. But shit, you guys like the Mars Volta so what does that say?

I knew of ‘em, never really listened to ‘em, I think I got the tribute album “straight up” (right?) for christmas years ago, my boss at the record store I worked for ( cheap a$$hole ) gave it to me, never heard it though, think I traded it with some kid for A Perfect Cirlcle.

Anywho.

The delivery on that “cute dog” line up there was quite chukle-inducing.

Oh and Casey Chaos can have his moments.

Snot was awesome … funny as hell, that’s what metal should be like.. not taking shit too seriously.
Snot ruleZ Nepal !!

Ok guys. I’m sorry that the new metal scene robbed bands like Poison and Warrant from making more albums. But no need to bitch and moan. I respect the that fact that you all have so much going in your lives, but can somehow find the time to bitch about a band whose singer can not even defend himself. But come one. Just like every scene of rock that sprouted, there was some good and bad.

I think we can all agree on that right?

But no, you guys are right. Baggy jeans are so much gayer than multi colored spandex. You guys must be happy as shit that tight jeans are back and style. Man, you guys passed that torch to the emo kids and they just ran with it, didn’t they? How proud you all must be.

To think, I actually found this article by accident. I was looking for concert information and found a little link at the bottom saying Snot may be getting back together and clicked on it probably for the same reason you all did, “dear god, I hope not”.

But I am so glad that I did click on this link, otherwise I would have missed the thoughts and opinions of all you way cool rocking metal “dudes”. Dudes, right? That’s what you call yourselves? I’m sure you are all wearing “totally non-gay” tight jeans, a jean or leather “possibly sleevless” jacket, long luxerious conditioned hair, an earing “on the hetero side, of course”, and all go home a make sweet sweet love to your imaginary girlfriends.

Well, let’s be fair. They are not all imaginary. Some of them are all dried up, used, and possibly slept with, or know someone who has slept with Bon Jovi. Sorry guys, but the girls in my scene were way hotter. Plus they didn’t take alot of time getting ready. But I know, hairspray is a natural aphrodisiac.

But hey, now I’m racial profiling. This probably doesn’t describe anyone who has posted here, right? Of course not. I’m sure some of you are fellas who are a few years out of high school and still wearing their letterman jackets.

Some of you are so cool and drunk every weekend and sleep with whatever comes your way. Awesome! You may drive a lifted truck, and put lots of cool stickers on the rear window. You may wear a sleeveless black Metal Mullisha t-shirt, and wear it with baggy grey shorts, black socks, etnies, and a backwards hat.

Hey I have tattoos too. I get it. And maybe even someday I will follow your lead and get stupid ass tattoos that mean nothing. I too want to get in a fight with my parents and talk about how life sucks and drive off in the car they bought you.

But again, I’m getting off my point. I don’t even listen to that music anymore, but it is nice to throw on some Snot and Deftones every once and awhile. (even though I wouldn’t classify either of these bands as new metal).

I am 28 years old and work for a music program that most of you probably have on your computer. You’re probaby listening to My Chemicle Romance or Avenged Sevenfold on it right now. I wear a tie to work, I wear a tie to work for gods sake. I am a father. I am also in a band that funny enough does not sound like them or even Snot.

But I took the time out of my day because you were bashing a man that I respected. And bashing him for dying in a car crash with his dog. Which is so classy by the way. Music is music fellas. I respect any man or woman who has gotten on a stage and shared a piece of themselves.

Now I’m sure this reply has gotten some of you amped up (Redbull is so awesome, right?) and you got your fingers all ready to reply. But, as I mentioned above, I stumbled across this by accident and am never going to check back here.

So if it makes you feel better, bash me right back. That’s the cool thing to do right? And in your own heads, you can even think that I do have the time to come back here and be so “burned” or “faced” by your response.

You guys are so cool…

But damn, this is getting really long and has drawn out more than I thought it would. I’m a pretty quick typer. But, I am so glad that I did stumble upon this place. If I didn’t, I wouldn’t be aware that there is a grown man in 2008 named Axl Rosenberg.

Another example of a faggot blog writer trying to stir controversy and add a few hits to his website. Cracking on the dead? Talk about winning at life.

Anyways, Yes the tribute album sucked and they weren’t that good live (Vocally anyways) but that first album barreled through all the shitty buttrock blasted on the radio, like a gorilla at daycare.

Nothing at that time had that kind of intensity or diversity and you would be hard pressed to find many bands like that today.

for fucks sake people get off the nu-metal hating bullshit. we’ve been hearing it for years. At least nu-metal bands didn’t make out with each other and dress like flaming homosexuals like these xxxscreamoxxxcore bands do if you wanna bash something than go bash that and stop making an ass outta yourself.

hey nuclearmonkey that was some good shit you wrote, got a bunch of emo fucks ragging on snot and the main man is no longer with us, if lynn was still alive they probably would of made a song about you emo fucks, the name of the song would be called MY BALLS N MY SISTERS JEAN!!!!!!!!!!!! by the way for all you haters hateing on someone that is dead lynn also had torette syndrome, so keep hateing because when he meets all you fucks on the otherside, his balls will be on your chins. one more thing, i met the new man TOMMY VEXT, one hell of a singer, hung out with all the guys in east peoria the night before thanksgiveing……they opened up for mudvayne…so keep hateing you emo fucks and i hope you all run into tommy because he is a bad mother fucker….. RESPECT THE DEAD……. LYNN LIVES ON….keep rocking guys, i listen to get some everyday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I also have a ABSEN tattoo, one of the best metal songs of all time, just listen to the lyrics and you will see how the band matured in a year….Brilliant song.

I kinda stumbled upon this while lookin up info on snot’s new shit comin out. Wow, bunch of little emo douches rippin on a band that would’ve schooled every piece of shit band out there, if they had been able to record their 2nd Cd. Just an FYI, the music on the STRAIT Up tribute was all music that was supposed to be on the 2nd CD, they just had other singers come in to pay tribute to THE MAN! I had the pleasure of seeing them live six months before he passed, and they came on right before muthafuckin SOULFLY! Lynn had more balls than all of you fuckers have combined. And yeah the dog did die, I’m glad you pathetic fucks got such a kick of that. Really sad when little nu-skool faggots such as yourselves decide to bash on a band that you probably never paid attention to. I was on their street team doin promoting for them, why do you think the name’s SnotCrew?! Snot crew we’re undisputed! Anyways, this just pissed me off, and i was actually gonna check out this site, but bag that, little emo faggots, go back to the store and buy some pants that you didn’t get in the little girls section. And damn I wish my lawn emo, so it would fucking cut itself.
Long live SNOT! and remember, when you’re crying yourself to sleep on your Avenged Sevenfold pillow that you got at Hot Topic, there was a band that didn’t give a fuck about being famous, didn’t give a fuck about the money, that there was a band that actually did it for the fucking fun of it! why else would they call themselves SNOT!

Come and Get it!
Come and Get it!
GET SOME!!!!
RIP LYNN STRAIT and DOBBS!!!
