    that chick should do the singy parts topless. just sayin.

  • http://www.myspace.com/1033metal Jackson

    good video, the new cd is amazing, it took a couple listens to really sink in but I love it

    • All Out War

      Where did you get the album? I’ve been checking on demonoid every hour to no avail. Any chance you could hook a brotha up? Maybe e-mail it to me? (cdvives@hotmail.com) :) You’d be doing your part for humanity.

      • http://www.myspace.com/1033metal Jackson

        perk of radio, and no i wont

        • trapthem

          thepiratebay.org has it

          • timmah

            LOL pirate bay. what.cd > *

  • moose_knuckle

    This band makes me want to eat my own face….in a bad way. It just all seems so so so so so so very lame.

    • Doodorz

      Yeah because this band is very shitty.

  • \m/Eluveitie\m/

    I’d love to see a video where they just get slapped for the duration of the song

    • metalguy

      i LOLed

    • groverXIII

      I’ll second that.

  • shep

    I liked them more before I watched the couple of videos that were on here recently. They couldn’t look more scene kiddy-ish if they tried.

    Also they already did the weird noise breakdown with that horn soundand now a horse? Hope they don’t rely on that all the time now.

    Having said all that I’m still looking forward to the new album…

    • Justin

      There not scene, there just a joke band that makes random shitty music for fun.

  • http://www.heavyblogisheavy.com Jimmy

    I enjoyed the break in the middle of the song. Should have lasted longer.

  • http://www.myspace.com/northwestroyale Blake

    This sounds better than the “Kevin Bacon” tune. The sounds a little more cohesive. I like it better.

  • BoudinNoir

    Fucking horrible fake metal hipster shit.

  • Simon

    Video- funny.
    Music- one big meh.

  • THE (proudly lame) CARL

    HA ha, man in a world full of fake tough guys this band knows how to just be awesome. Cant wait for the album.

    • http://reaper-x.deviantart.com/ Reaper-X

      That would totally make sense if we lived in that world.

      Instead, we live in a world where people try too hard to seem interesting, ironic and creative.

      • dthrasher

        if by creative you mean derivative then you are correct sir

  • Zombie(really)

    Eh, IWABO though not the best, are a fun band to listen to.

  • wata

    Props for a singer with boobs and not moobs.

  • Pluto

    Song = awesome
    Video = retarded

    I think it’s weird when people call this “hipster metal”
    Clearly, you do not understand what hipster means, or where the word originates from…Get off my internet, your ignorance is in the way of progress.

    • http://live.com 5

      get off my internet you dang kids!!!

  • Double D

    Song= Who gives a fuck
    Video= Who gives a fuck
    Lead singer chick= I just wanna fuck

  • Uglymicrowave

    these guys do there own thing….

    leave em alone…

    there actually trying to have fun…instead of make money like most bands

    • \m/Eluveitie\m/

      Please they advertise their merchandise more than their “art”

  • Sammy

    This video was funnier when it was done in The Blues Brothers.

  • Sammy

    “Hey guys, I got an idea. Let’s each play a different bunch of chaotic notes. And not bathe for a while.”

  • lkgf09

    this is just noise. this band sucks. IWABO = pure shit

  • kevin

    This band is great. Way too many insecure metalheads concerned with being macho here.

    • groverXIII

      Insecure? No, just enough common sense to realize that these guys suck.

      • Malacoda

        1

  • lkgf09

    WTF is this video supposed to be. Why do almost aLL metal videos and all metal poseur videos really suck nowadays?

  • Tim

    Generic breakdowns and uninteresting melodies. Video was thoroughly unsuccessful at being humorous. Except when the singer mouthed the horse noise. That was funny. Basically, if you sucked the originality and creative talent out of Protest The Hero, this is what would be left. Why do people care? Best guess is the vocalist is a fox, because I can’t find anything else positive here. I might delve a little deeper, see if the rest of their catalog is more interesting, but I’m not expecting much.

  • tom

    Ya know…I never had a problem with this band until I watched this video. They might be talented, but goddamn their music is horrible.

  • BlestTilDeth

    Where is the hot sister guitarist MIM?

  • Joe

    sounds like every other song they have and thats not a good thing… another shitty song and band to soon forget about

  • Drew

    anyone find a torrent for the new cd?

  • SonOF

    I don’t advocate violence toward women, but I’d make an exception for the girl in that band.

  • balls

    whaddya know, the faggot hipsters brand of self-irony still isn’t funny. stop trying so hard.

  • Selaphiel

    People who hate on this band are mostly doing it because it’s the cool thing to do.

    On the other hand, people who like this band mostly like it because they think they’re cool by doing something that isn’t the cool thing to do.

    ‘Cus at the end of the day, they only kinda-suck, but I’m sure there are a few people who genuinely like them, and a few people who genuinely hate them.

    But, yeah, 90% of y’all are posers.

    • groverXIII

      I hate them because they’re terrible… I don’t care if that’s cool or not.

    • rayray

      your probably some turd getting beat up in your gym class. I actually like this song. Not because its cool or its not because I fucking do.

    • http://www.myspace.com/437666934 Noel

      you made a big ass of yourself by contradicting yourself repeatedly in your own statement. way to go.
      and by the way, why say 90 percent of “you” are posers? I believe YOUR ALSO POSTING on this site. this is not “us vs. them” ok?

  • 36Thoughtless

    The hard parts were better when Cephalic Carnage did them in “Xenosapien.” And listen, chick, whatever the hell your name is, you are singing way out of tune. Step back, use your ears, and sing correctly, or get an earphone to actually hear what the band’s playing.

    • http://www.myspace.com/437666934 Noel

      dont you get it man? Its the new thing to sing out of tune, rip off prog music, have a lack of structure, and act like your band doesnt care by giving your band a stupid ass name. then, have all your fans tell non fans that they “just dont get it”. to them I say….LISTEN TO SOME FRANK ZAPPA, NOT THIS GARBAGE>

  • alex

    she cant sing worth half a fuck

  • keepitwolf

    bitch cant sing, bad melodies, played out Synt riffs with genghis tron electronica parts, horrible attempt at ironic humor, ugly girl, too much 4/4 for a “tech” band, and all the songs follow the same structure. with that said shit hipster gimmick band

    • Lance

      Who the fuck said they’re a “tech band”?

      Dumbass.

  • Conduit

    Burn all hipsters

  • http://metalinsider.net bill

    did anyone else notice that when the singer breakdances she turns into a dude?

    • \m/Eluveitie\m/

      I wondered how she grew a goatee that fast

    • groverXIII

      Yeah, I thought her boobs disappeared.

      • \m/Eluveitie\m/

        If anything they grew when she became a dude

  • Conduit

    Okay so I decided to actually take a listen to this song and 36Thoughtless is on queue. The first part of the song sounded like a Cephalic Carnage cover band, but when I got the awful part where she starts “singing” I had to shut it off. Holy fucking shitfuck that was horrendous, now I’m really pissed that you guys still pimp these douchelords.

  • CYN1C

    The worst shit I’ve seen on MetalSucks

  • Tom

    The bartender at the end has it right.

  • syclonus

    the main reason i can’t stand to listen to this band are those annoyingly dissonant riffs that are obnoxiously high in the mix. so many bands use riffs like that, don’t they grate on your ears after a while?

  • All Out War

    Geez, does anybody like this band? How the hell did they get signed to Metal Blade if the general consensus is that they are a bunch of poser hipsters?

    • Malacoda

      *Century Media

    • http://www.myspace.com/437666934 Noel

      gee, look up a band called luna mortis. hmmmmmmm I wonder why THAT band got signed hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

  • Gothian

    Stupid video… stupid music… stupid band members….

  • vitruvianApe

    saw them play in hollywood last night, fucking killer show, they came on stage durring vanna’s set and got all silly.Then during iwabo’s set all the 17 year old karate chop judo kids didn’t know what to do, so they made fun of it. “whuts noise core? whur’s muh breakdown?” I’m getting way too old for this scene shit.
    I like IWABO and they put on a great show, end of story. Don’t like it – great, shutthefuckup about it

    I didn’t even stay for Human Abstract, but i did see AJ Minette on my way out the door, AKWARD!!

    • Connduit

      That’s what I don’t like about you freaks who enjoy this nonsense, we’re not allowed to hate on them because you like the band. Go eat shit somewhere guy, along with this horrendous band.

    • syclonus

      You like it – great, shutthefuckup about it.

  • crank

    I don’t even know what to say…..Do you just post this shit to piss everyone off?

  • groverXIII

    It was fairly generic right up until the singer started in with the clean vocals… holy shit, does she realize how off-key she is? Is it intentional?

    I made it almost to the one minute mark, then watched the rest of the video with the sound off, listening to Iron Maiden. Great idea, having a dance-off, if it wasn’t for the fact that they do that in a bunch of the shitty music videos they play at my gym.

    In summation… these guys are generic, appear to be aimed at the scene kids who jizz their pants over deathcore bands, and have little talent.

  • Mike Malice

    Ah, nothing like flat vocals to round out gay music.

  • http://www.crackcesshollywood.com Farhaad

    I’d rather listen to Axl’s parents fucking.

    • Damotello

      Nice.

  • All Out War

    Does anyone have a torrent for this gem of an album?

  • fightingmike

    Not very original at all, just sound like all of the fad high school bands coming out these days that have already been getting horrible reviews (AKA Heavy Heavy Low Low, Arsonists get all thegirls, etc…), but that singer has some pipes for a chick. You wouldnt even know it was female if you didnt see the video. She’s cute, but a cheesy jokey band overall

  • Malacoda

    This video is supposed to be funny? It’s super lame. Also, the girl’s vocals are terrible. As I’ve said before, a girl on vocals does not make a good band, though there are good girl vocalists. It seems like they’re trying to rip off multiple genres at once, including technical Psyopus-style Mathcore, War From a Harlot’s Mouth style Jazz/Grind, and really bad deathcore. Sorry, guys, IWABO is one of the only bands I dislike you guys have recommended. Basically, I agree with the bartender at the end.

    • Malacoda

      And her “cleans” make me cry inside.

  • \m/Eluveitie\m/

    I hear they’re hooked up to play Hole In The Sky

  • dr j

    I could listen to 1000 bands rip off Cephalic Carnage and not get bored. However the fact that they wrote this song in an almost formulatic way mirroring Taste Like Kevin Bacon (Hard part, Jazzy Clean part, Goofy part, Weird noise leading into chug-chug breakdown) really disappoints me. I loved Taste Like Kevin Bacon and thought they had really cool ideas that could grow into something on their EP, but the last 2 songs they put out let me down to no end. Not to mention their terrible personalities. Ugh, after watching the few videos you guys posted of them in the studio, all I could imagine while watching this video was them laughing obnoxiously and yelling about how funny it would be for the rednecks to have a danceoff with them, hur hur hur…..

    • metalguy

      i second that 100%

  • poopsmcgee

    i actually like the instrumental parts of the music, but i hate the vocals. especially the clean parts. just awful.

  • Mike =O

    Boring IMO.

  • Kevin

    This band still blows.

  • Santa Claus

    On there previous album, I thought they had there own sound that was pretty cool. But now, to me they just sound like a really really shitty version of Evenescense. And sounding like them should also be something everyone should avoid for the rest of time. And yeah I thought her singing sounded fucked and out of tune. I think she should just scream the whole time because her singing piss’s me off, and not in a metal way.

  • Charlie B

    Its sad that this band is getting as much coverage as they do on so called “metal” blogs. Its kinda ironic that this website is called Metal sucks, and they trump many crappy bands like IWFAB.

  • http://www.myspace.com/437666934 Noel

    This wave of psuedo proggy, “jazzy” deathcore whatever music is laking in some apsecs of ..hmmmmactual talent…so….for those who are interested, save your music listening money and time for the bands that origionated and or perfected this type of prg rock stuff. here is a list.

    frank zappa.
    king crimson.
    meshuggah.
    tool.
    billy cobham. [plus more..]

    please, dont waste time on these…iwrastedabearonce …….”bands”, for ONE reason:when iwabo writes a song, they say, hay, this will impress people, or shock people, etc. etc. the above bands\artists…..dont. they just make the music they like, and put it out there. and they last longer than a couple of years, unlike these fuckin bands. that is all.

  • http://myspace,.com/theabsence Patrick Pintavalle

    Wow man, another fine example of scenester crap. Once again, Learn how to write a song.
    Im so sick of this crap and the people that support it. What the F**k is wrong with your ears?
    Does anyone actually remember what they just listened to?
    I dont remember a single riff if there even was one.
    People are gonna buy this and this what is considered metal now.
    Exuse me while I go and shoot myself for actually trying to bust my ass to write decent songs that will never sell as much this will. I guess Im just an old bitter man.
    They named the band after a quote from Gary Busy.
    I hope Gary Busy Bites them all.

  • Jizzmaster3000

    How this group ever past local-band status is a mystery to me. Sounds exactly like the bands that were playing my local three years ago. It was okay though because the bands knew that they were never getting signed.

  • http://www.kingdomofnoise.blogspot.com MetalMatt

    the music seems pretty good. it’s a little jumpy for my tastes but I can dig it.
    but, the video is just dumb. seriously, why was Dee Snider in the girls bathroom anyway?

  • phatchief666

    Is this really what metal has become ?

    • groverXIII

      Nope… because this isn’t metal.

  • esteban

    no clicking on this video unless it ends with a public lynching of these fags

  • THE CARL

    By simple deduction of the last 80 posts I think i figured out why people might not like this music:

    “this is just noise”

    “too jumpy”

    “too random”

    statements like this are similar to the statements all PARENTS make about their kids music. They did it to Elvis, they did it to Led Zepplin, they did it to Cannibal Corpse, and now in this current generation is doing it to bands like IWABO. They must be just too intense for you, which basically means . . .

    ALLOT OF YOU “METALHEADS” ARE GETTING TOO FUCKING OLD AND IT PISSES YOU OFF SO YOU SIT IN YOUR CHAIRS OF IRRELEVANCE AND PISS AND FUCKING MOAN.

    There are plenty of bands that Metalsucks advertises that I dont listen too, but I respect the fact that not everyone shares my tastes and I also have a life, so I don’t bother with it. Just because you CAN post, doesnt mean you HAVE to. The more you shit talk this band, the more you are showing just how shallow you really are.

    • Charlie B

      Uh thats funny because I like the bands that IWRAB rips off. So I guess your hypotenuse is incorrect.

    • Charlie B

      Also comparing great band like Led Zepplin or CC to this no talent band is hilarious at best.

      • THE CARL

        I did not compare any of the bands to each other, your lack of understanding for the english language is hilarious at best.

    • Tim

      Dude, go listen to some really crazy, out-there music. This crap is watered down music for scene kids who don’t actually get bands like Dillinger Escape Plan or Between The Buried And Me or Unexpect so they can feel smart and avant-garde.

      • THE CARL

        Tim my boy as I said before, music is subjective. If I was an asshole like you I would say, hey fag, if you want to listen to really amazingly crazy music, go listen to Pig Destroyers Terrorizer, or Ion Dissonances Solace, and then I would add the stinging comment that DEP is for pussys, but I dont. That is the difference.

        Music should never be a competition, just like what sounds good to you.

    • groverXIII

      I don’t dislike it because it’s too jumpy or too random… I dislike it because they are sorely lacking in talent, so they try to cover it up by being jumpy and random. It has nothing to do with being old or shallow. You could make the same argument for those ridiculous screamo-crunk bands, but that doesn’t change the fact that they are also sorely lacking in talent.

      Oh, and your assertion that you have a life and that you respect other peoples’ tastes is pretty much invalidated by your post here. Have a nice day!

      • metalguy

        groverxlll: kicking ass and takin names once again

        • groverXIII

          That’s how I roll.

          Oh, and THE CARL: Get the fuck off my lawn. Damn whippersnappers.

      • THE CARL

        Dude, I spend my time on this site defending a band that I like. But you spent your time shit talking a band that you dont like, so again I ask; Who doesn’t have the life hear?

        • groverXIII

          I didn’t claim to have a life… I said that your assertion thereof invalidates your claim.

          • THE CARL

            well actually now that I think about it, I really am a loser, so i guess yeah, you won this one.

          • groverXIII

            Not really a loser… just no life, and questionable taste in music. :D

          • THE CARL

            ha ha, well the bands i listen to dont have to all quantify my existence.

    • 36Thoughtless

      “this is just noise”

      Well, I listen to both Wold and Merzbow, so that’s not it.

      “too jumpy”

      I also listen to the Locust, and an Albatross…

      “too random”

      And Between the Buried and Me, Fantomas, and Mr. Bungle.

      “statements like this are similar to the statements all PARENTS make about their kids music. They did it to Elvis, they did it to Led Zepplin, they did it to Cannibal Corpse, and now in this current generation is doing it to bands like IWABO. They must be just too intense for you,…”

      Yeah, those situations are perfectly analogous to this: moral imperatives based on the Platonic understanding of the power of music over younger generations obviously correlates to stylistic opinions in extreme metal.

      “ALLOT OF YOU “METALHEADS” ARE GETTING TOO FUCKING OLD AND IT PISSES YOU OFF SO YOU SIT IN YOUR CHAIRS OF IRRELEVANCE AND PISS AND FUCKING MOAN.”

      Man, I’m old at 22. Being 14 and a complete idiot must be fun…

      “There are plenty of bands that Metalsucks advertises that I dont listen too, but I respect the fact that not everyone shares my tastes and I also have a life, so I don’t bother with it. Just because you CAN post, doesnt mean you HAVE to. The more you shit talk this band, the more you are showing just how shallow you really are.”

      Who cares? I have an opinion in a free country and consider myself relatively intelligent, so why shouldn’t I get to voice my open on a open forum such as this? I don’t HAVE to, but I WANT to.

      What’s funny is, if I asked you if you listened to the Jonas Brothers, you’d probably say, “Fuck no,” and start to shit talk them (and rightfully so). So does that make you shallow? Or is it only shallow to criticize this band in particular? How does your last statement logically follow?

      • THE CARL

        Im older then you, im 23.

        • THE CARL

          sorry, computer cut out, Soo yeah being 23 i am older then you, and I never ever said criticizing this band is shallow.

          I would absolutely love it if everyone on this site criticized this band, but most do not. They shit talk and there is an explicit difference.

          People talk about taste and talent like its written in stone and it isnt. Its all subjective and the double edged sword that the internet is, gives people the false delusion that their subjective delusion is somehow relevant and important. Its disgusting.

          Also for the johnas brothers comment, yes it is true that i do not like them, so i will not waste my time clicking on any links to their videos, or writing how much i dislike them on a comment box.

          • 36thoughtless

            “They shit talk and there is an explicit difference.”

            What is that difference? Because sayings such as “too jumpy” and “too random” sound like criticism to me.

            “sorry, computer cut out, Soo yeah being 23 i am older then you,”

            The point wasn’t to determine who was older, just that your assumption was wrong.

            “People talk about taste and talent like its written in stone and it isnt. Its all subjective and the double edged sword that the internet is, gives people the false delusion that their subjective delusion is somehow relevant and important. Its disgusting.”

            Maybe, but once you’ve asserted your standard for criticism, it becomes significantly less subjective than “it’s good/bad.” Also, Everyone thinks their opinion is relevant: you’d live a pretty miserable existence if you felt you had nothing to contribute. I don’t really find that disgusting, just a fact of life. And who’s to say that it isn’t relevant? Isn’t that just your opinion as well?

          • THE CARL

            “Everyone thinks their opinion is relevant: you’d live a pretty miserable existence . . .”

            People who use the internet to say things like “van flip” do live pretty miserable existences.

  • WOW

    This has really got to be the worst thing i’ve ever heard. That singing is so fucking out of key and terrible. How the fuck can people listen to this? I’d rather get a root canal while listening to anal cunt.

    Better yet, i’d rather get a root canal from seth putnam while listening to kenny g fuck himself in the ass with his fuckin sax.

    Most horrible thing…ever.

  • http://deleted WOW

    DUDE…

    REALLY? This is a joke right guys? I still can believe how terrible this was! That poor girl…

    she thinks she can sing…

    sad really.

  • bradican

    i dont understand why MS sucks this bands dick so much…. they fucking blow

    im sorry, but this music is awful, and even when im stoned, it sounds awful AND makes me come down a little

    seriously, i dont wanna say other people’s music choices are bad, but this band is one of the worst i’ve ever heard, along with heavy heavy low low

  • 36Thoughtless

    You know, reviews don’t mean everything, but Decibel gave this album 2 out of 10. Just fyi…

    • groverXIII

      Well, it tells us that someone at Decibel has a little taste in music…

  • http://reaper-x.deviantart.com/ Reaper-X

    Just because your band throws in everything but the kitchen sink, does not mean it’s good.

    This is another one of those “pick and choose” bands. Many people will listen to this and hear a certain element or elements, in their work that they like more than the others. They will listen to them for the element(s) until they find another band that does what they do better.

    Another thing is that this band will not last very long covering up mediocrity with other genres. So you can transfer from breakdown riffs to a fake country/western sound in a split second. Doesn’t mean shit if your music is absolutely boring.

    Having multiple breakdown riffs does not constitute a song. You can sit there and tell me that verse riff wasn’t a breakdown, but it was simply a different style of breakdown from another genre. Also, whats with the multiple breakdown riffs with nonsensical lead guitars? There’s dissonance and then there’s nonsense. This is nonsense.

    Even as far as -core related music goes, this is bottom of the barrel.

    No, this is the stuff that gets soaked into the barrel wood.

    • THE CARL

      This is a completely and totally concise and educated criticism of this band.

      Very well written sir.

  • Dednkickin

    I pretty cephalic carnage shat these people out(aka leftover talent) also they should take this chick outta the band and put in susan boyle in it. New name could be I wrestled a bear once nope it was a scottish womans leg

    Axl, I’ve had many a laugh while visiting this fine internet institution…and I gotta say, if when the time comes to review this album, and it gets chewed up, spit out, fucked over and slapped with a nice “FUCK YOU out of 5 horns”, I will die of laughter…if that’s what you’re setting us up for, God bless you

      • groverXIII

        Well, they seem to be missing a hot redhead and a talking dog… and one of the guys needs to be wearing a neck scarf. I’d imagine these guys probably roam the country in their van solving mysteries in their spare time, though.

    everyone hates. all the people who are “true” metal heads are just scared that metal will go in this direction, and they cant handle change. its just music, obviously theyre just trying to have a good time, we all know that being in a metal band pretty much means being in tons of debt, so might as well be in tons of debt doing outrageous things like playing music like iwrestledabearonce. i dont see why people hate on this band so much, if you dont like them then dont listen to them jeeze. atleast iwrestledabearonce can chill hard on some school yard bullshit metal and have fun instead of acting like dicks.

      people dont like this band because they are getting popular based on people like you, who think their an innovative, ‘out there’ band, when their nothing more than another group of 20 somthin hipster doushebags, as much as I hate sayin the word “hipster” but its what they is..its not necaccarely[?] the music why I hate them, but the fact they obviously have a shtick, and milk it to death, all while recording music with no depth, really crappy vocals, and gettin paid fo it!!!!!!!!!

        i never said they were innovative. id much much rather listen to psyopus than this, not to put IWABO in psyopus’s league. anyways im just saying it looks like they have fun doing what they do, in no way am i saying theyre innovative.

      Wheres the envy?

      What is there to be jealous of?

      Nobody has ever answered this question. I mean, really…there’s gotta be SOME reason why people keep suggesting everyone that hates this band is envious of?

      It sure isn’t their record label, because you can’t be jealous of a record labels decision. Over time this band will have made as much as a 7-11 worker makes in a whole year and have to deal with recouping their label dues. Why? Because this fad will reach a bad end, they all do.

      Also, who’s to say that Century Media didn’t sign this band for the obvious quick buck they could get off of you idiots? It seems like the ones least aware of the fact that this is also a business are people like you.

      That’s like being envious of a rape victim. Nobody says “Oh I can’t believe that smarmy fuck put the roofie in HER drink instead of mine!”

      They’re saying “At least I won’t be waking up in the morning with sore holes and possibly a disease because they thought I was worth a cheap fuck.”

      I also know it sure isn’t the fact that they get to travel, because any band that works hard enough can travel. Even without a label. If you have the knowledge in the business and the skills in money management, you can get yourself anywhere. There are many bands that do, and there are many more bands that are learning how to do it right without relying on a gimmick. So being jealous of something that’s growing more and more common to a higher standard of music and performance is irrelvant.

      So what is it…c’mon…what are we so envious of?

      Exactly…

      If by envy haters you mean ‘people whose eas actually function’, then… yes.

      Although in all fairness, IWABO sucks so bad Helen Keller wouldn’t make it halfway through one of their songs without turning it off.

        Whoops… make that ‘ears’.

    they should have a song called “shtick to the the story” i thought the kevin bacon was video was pretty funny but it wore this joke shit off like a bad genital wart

  • shuggah

    you will never get me to like this band.

  • slavetothegrinder

    WTF was CM thinking this band is dog shit.shit like this pisses me off CM has so many great acts working for them and i hear more about this hipster shit then i do from the actuall talented centry media acts.

  • ill_will

    i bet you her vocals are better than any of you “hater” fag wads.
    IWABO is a geniunely different band. Not a rip-off.

    Wow, what a piece of shit of a music. If this is grondcore than I’m Ronald McDonald. Every single note is fucking flying from 1 room to another, not fitting and out of order. Agoraphobic Nosebleed makes more sense with their 3 second songs.

      it’s funny all you bashers cannot spell to save your life. no, IWABO are not innovative, they are just a band that some people seem to enjoy. your time would be better spent, championing a band you love than bashing a band you don’t care for. losers.

    they sound like dillinger escape plan, but not as good, and if their singer had a sex change

    My highly scathing rant on IWABO here. Includes insults regarding their failed attempts to experiment and make it work, and critical comments on band’s attitude and visuals. Ends with some form of “Fuck you, IWABO”. The end.
