WHEN EMO KIDS ATTEMPT TO GO METAL…

Thursday, December 18th, 2008 at 5:19pm by

… this is the kind of dreck that happens. Perhaps we should nominate these guys for Shitstain Part 3?

I’ll leave it to the MetalSucks faithful to spit some venom. Let’s see what you’ve got.

-VN

  • Steven

    Bad enough this band is generic this just made it even worse for them

  • Brett

    Metal? Is this the new Jonas Brothers video?

  • Malacoda

    eh, doesn’t sound like they’re trying to go metal to me. shitstain 3 was i set my friends on fire.

  • QuesoKing

    This has more cheese that Taco Hell

  • DeafBoy

    Autotune Riffic!

  • niko

    what the hell was that stupid emos problem with the two chaps with the mo-hawks??
    they were being nice to him!
    then he pictured them in ladies underwear…. hmmmm?
    thats weird.

  • Dushaun Mandic

    In other News:

    Red Cut Writs Appershitus thinks they’re the next Guns N’ Roses, and it just so happens Axle Rose just bought a 12 Gage Shotgun… we ask what for?

  • Kye

    1. Nothing emo about these guys..then, now, ever.

    2. This is wretched. I actually didn’t mind some of their older material, but dear god this is bad.

  • Jesse

    I always thought Protest the Hero was what happened when emo kids attempt to go metal. Or maybe vice versa?

  • Joe

    That beginning part where he does that weird shrill scream. THat sounded so familiar, I just can’t put my finger on it. Little help please

  • seveword

    Why the hell do they let people with Parkinson’s operate these cameras? I’d rather watch a terrible band play a terrible song than watch a terrible band play a terrible song AND get motion sickness

  • Joe

    Just picked up on it. Now I’m embarassed

  • palinaborted

    What is this god-awful attempt at music and music video production??? This is obviously some sort of insidious plan, propagated by the chimpanzees that run record companies, to grab my ears by the Eustachian tube and throttle the life out of them in hopes that they might get a…NICKELBACK.

  • I, Monarch

    While the music was absolutely horrid, I just could not stop watching that music video to see what else could happen to that emo kid.

  • Sammy

    Not really emo. Or metal. More like some kids got their a hold of their uncle’s ’80s butt rock albums.

  • Ian

    Hey, I thought that looked like RJA, but it sounds nothing like their last album which was a pretty solid rock album (pretty sure they’re not emo).
    This is very strange though.

    just sounds like generic pop rock to me

    Autotune Riffic

    Autotunealicious

  • myke

    axl pose gave birth to this hideous disease

  • AnusApache

    Isnt that the kid from Hanson?

  • large jockstrap

    i dont see anything wrong with this song. it doesnt aim to be metal, like peace sells does.

    its just pop metal.

  • Raging Skull

    Metal? I didn’t hear any Metal. At all. Period.

  • http://myspace.com/danlilkerbook Dave Hoffa

    What band is this?

  • Anthony

    Sounds like 80s hair metal to me.

  • J-Hole

    So if Trivium is the new Metallica, are they trying to be the new Winger? And is this video supposed to be the new A-ha???

  • shreddies

    Yeah…no metal here.

    I don’t get why that got posted? It fucking br00tal>>I mean brutal!

  • Raging Skull

    Hair metal beats this shit any day!

  • http://www.myspace.com/bminekime enemyofgod72

    I’d rather jam a screwdriver in my ear than hear that ever again.

  • key

    I mean did the director for Juno do this video? It’s about as much fucking overrated mainstream watered-down hyped up trash as Juno was. I bet PMSing women go ape shit for this stuff.

  • Slntpsych1

    So awkward sounding.

  • http://blog.refreshingapathy.com refreshingapathy

    Any song that has fucking COWBELL in the verse is probably not that metal. Awesome, yes. Metal, fuck no. Go back to the razorblade shop.

    Also, metal kids don’t play football. The fucking beat down.

  • http://blog.refreshingapathy.com refreshingapathy

    Also, pentatonic scale solo WHAT

  • vitruvianApe

    I HATE that this band sucks soooo bad cuz the guitar player and his girl come into my bar all the time and they’re super cool. They always try to get me to come to the shows and I always have hair that needs washing.

    I’d rather look at two ballsacs pierced together on one barbell.

  • CrapMcPoopin

    Supposedly this band all met at a clinic for battered boys to talk about their beatings/rapings… don’t know how true, but i heard it once and so i happened to be around my sister’s friend who “loved” this shit band and i made him cry by making fun of them for being beaten. Waaa my dad hit me… be a fucking man and hit him back. Then when your 16 hit the open road and drift aimlessly while drinking whiskey like real men do.

    Check out that Autotune! *slow whistle*

  • http://www.myspace.com/hateband666 WANGA

    Gee, the singer’s hot – I wonder what her name is?

  • Fab

    Sounded horrible, they were. In Shitstain Part 3, they should.

  • http://www.phoenixlocalmusic.com/profile/Katie25 Katie

    Dude, they sound really bad, what band is that? And who was dumb enough to sign them? People need to stick with what they’re good!

  • http://www.last.fm/user/Richaod/ Richaod

    Ehh, this isn’t horrific, just bad… though I have to admit I kind of liked the opening riff.

    The singer’s not great at melismas though.

  • Joe

    Can I see a before/after picture of this dude? I bet it will be quite revealing in a Rob Flynn Vio-lence/Machine Head kind of way. I mean, who exactly is the audience for this kind of utterly wholesome cut and paste pop metal? Attila fans? Sorry, I could not resist.

  • Gossamer Axe

    I wouldn’t say they were horrible, very 80s pop/rock sound, which has been done to death. The theme of the video has been done a million times before, geek gets picked on, geek has revenge and the world is at peace.

    Their audience is probably early/pre-teens, ones that like radio fodder because they haven’t heard Arsis yet.

  • vmanv

    The song is definately shit, but so is a lot of the music that is posted on this blog.

  • john

    just sounds like cheesy buttrock to me

  • iwrestledaferretonce

    This crap has nearly ruined one of my favorite videos of all time, Korn’s “Thoughtless.”
    The whole odd-kid being picked on and messed with and then gets revenge at the end. Some computer techie guy out there oughta try to match Thoughtless with this and see how it works.

  • Mark

    It’s Vince Neilstein’s band!

  • kev

    Though its been said before, they are neither metal nor emo. But I like them, fuck you guys. They’re pretty solid for a pop rock band.

    They’re just trying to do hard rock. Still sucks though.
