CRAZY TOWN BUTCHERING REFUSED’S “NEW NOISE”
Monday, September 14th, 2009 at 12:00pm by Vince Neilstein“New Noise” seems to be a popular song to cover; Anthrax (with Dan Nelson) covered it a few months back, and apparently The Used rock it from time to time. Far worse, Crazy Town used to butcher it with regularity. When Refused wrote The Shape of Punk to Come, they most certainly did not mean horrible guitar tone, rubber-band bass, and jocks with their shirts off rapping about winged ex-caterpillars. If Refused had known that bands like Crazy Town would go on to cite them as influences, perhaps they would’ve never formed a band and spared us all.
Oh God, oh God.

There is no god… But we already knew that.
Also, “Refused’s” is hard to say out loud.
I love Refused. I have since I first heard them in ‘97. This video is disturbing.
I am absolutely horrified to hear one of my favorite songs ever be raped like that.
Anyone who doesn’t like this video just needs to “GET WIT IT, GET WIT IT, GET WIT IT”
this “band” makes me :’(
Old news, but it never gets old! This is like something I would make up for a joke, yet it’s all too painfully real!
All time classic!
RIP DJ AM
fuuuuck crazytown
Didn’t Papa Roach name their short lived imprint “New Noize?”
Haha that just reminded me how this band was on ozzfest one year. You should post a video of them getting booed off
At least there DJ is dead now, so that’s a positive development.
Ok the band sucks a fat one, but that’s not cool dude… Have some fucking respect.
That’s some of the worst drumming I’ve ever heard. There is such thing as nu-metal style drumming, and John Otto is very good at it, however that Crazytown guy is just terrible.
at least no one’s covered “liberation frequency” and “summerholiday vs. punkroutine” (yet).
Dear Satan,
Please kill the rest of Crazytown.
That was like listening to an abortion.
Refused R.I.P.
Crazytown should fucking die
OH – my – fucking – god. How terrible this is.Its called THe Shape of Punk to Come not The Shape of Suck to Cum…. well, i gave it a shot.
Anyway. I <3 Refused xoxoxo
