...And Fuck You Too

WORST THING EVER OF THE WEEK, PART 2: DESIGN THE SKYLINE’S VIDEO FOR “BREAK FREE FROM YOUR LIFE”

 Thursday, September 1st, 2011 at 12:40pm by

I had no fucking clue who Design the Skyline were before Sergeant D. started writing about them (here and here), and knowing what I knew, I should have known better than to hit “play” on their new video, “Break Free From Your Life.” But I’m a fucking idiot, so I did hit “play,” and I think I hate this even more than I do Skip the Foreplay. It’s so bad that the only logical reaction I could come up with was to lay my head down on my laptop’s keyboard while a MetalSucks Mansion Monkey slammed the monitor down on my head again and again and again, WCW-style. If you had told me twelve years ago that some day there would be bands that made Limp Bizkit seem like the most sophisticated songwriters ever, I probably would have just killed myself then and there.

Side note: There are members of this band who aren’t sixteen?

Side side note: NO MORE VERB THE NOUN BAND NAMES ALLOWED. SERIOUSLY. CUT IT OUT WITH THAT SHIT. THERE MUST BE ANY NUMBER OF OTHER AVAILABLE BAND NAMES. COME UP WITH SOMETHING ELSE ALREADY.

    “ There are members of this band who aren’t sixteen?”

    Puberty can come late sometimes. 

    On a side note: there are like NO transitions between verse/chorus/middle. Even Bizkit has transitions.

      Hate on the Bizkit all you want, they do write solid songs in that sense.

    I just have to marvel at the horrendous vocal abilities of this band. Were we to hear the screams before the engineer cranked the gain up, it would probably sound like like some teenager impersonating greg puciato. Which is exactly what this is. file this under studio trickery

    This is what happens when you grow up on YouTube without a filter for what’s good and what’s garbage. These poor kids have no idea what they’re doing and when the harsh realities of this world set in for them, they will be completely unprepared, and unable to fend for themselves.

    Does this mean that I need to come up with a new name for my band, Dip the Tip?

  • V1king_xxx

    Really. I think these guys are WAY better than the Skip the Foreplay. I hate the haircuts, though.

    Why is this on a metal website?

    • Dred Furst

      because you touch yourself at night.

        Finally the Fred Durst/ Dred Furst battle we’ve all been waiting for!!

      • Fred Durst

        No, the fact that I touch myself all night has to do with my teenage hormones and lack of consentual sexual activitey with a partner.

      My thoughts exactly. Now it’s just mediocre shit, nothing terrible and definitely not good. The last one was laughable, though.

    well at least they used the word “Skyline” in their name so we knew they were going to be shitty as all hell, cuz what band in existence has that word in their name and isn’t shitty?

  • Facepalm

    So for anyone here who has ever been in a shitty band: Did you know your band was shitty or did you honestly think you were awesome?

    I’m still trying to figure these douchebags out.
