Remember a while back when I vowed to rid the earth of a band called Hinder? Well, where have they been? That’s right — DEAD!
Well maybe not dead, but I haven’t heard their music in over a year, which means Angry Ken was victorious. If you have any doubt, think about who’s blog you’re reading right now. Do you hear any lame ass Hinder songs? Exactly.
With Hinder vanquished into musical obscurity, I can focus my efforts on the next craptacular musical act. I haven’t decided who to take down yet, but here are a few choices:
Fallout Boy
Panic at the Disco
Flobots
These bands all totally suck, so I would be doing a service by ridding society of any of them. I’ll have to think about it. In the meantime, feel free to send me any “thanks for getting rid of Hinder” fruit baskets.
What a f**king baby Kanye West is. Can you believe this guy? Talk about a sore loser, especially when it comes to an MTV award. Doesn’t he know that winning an MTV video award pretty much means you suck? In this video you can hear him say something about being tired of pop (music). Wake up Kanye! You are pop. You used to be cool but now you are as mainstream as anyone.
Kanye West has sucked ever since he swapped his backpack for Diddy-style sunglasses.
A couple months ago I heard this song while riding back from the impound lot with friend/enemy Eliot. Thanks to some ingenious planning his car was towed from my townhouse complex. That’s another story, but I can assure you it wasn’t my fault.
Anyway, this weird-ass song was playing from his ipod and it kinda scared me a little. Rather than inquire of its origins, I took my leave of the vehicle, escaping the mysterious collection of sounds forever.
Or so I thought…
Shortly thereafter, the one they call “Eliot” sent me a curious link, to which I clicked. This is what I found. (Consider this my returning gift to you 3 “loyal” readers.
While I was even more confused and frightened than before, this “song” started to grow on me. Now I have to listen to it at least once everyday to keep the oopma loompas from coming for me in the middle of the night.
I’ve always liked Linkin Park. Their first two albums and their remix album (not the crappy one with Jay-Z) were all pretty good, even worth buying. And I never buy CD’s. But thank god I didn’t buy “Minutes to Midnight.”
Let’s put it this way; if you enjoyed Linkin Park’s previous work, you WON’T like this new installment.
Another way to put it is that this album pretty much sucks. I listened through the entire album twice and could only pick out one song that I actually thought was decent. The rest is total crap. The album is whiney and slow and the hard hitting, fast tempo guitar thrashing of Hybrid Theory and Meteora is nowhere to be heard.
And like all other bands lately, they decide they have to get all political with the typical Bush bashing. Real original, guys. Anyone with a brain of their own doesn’t care what you think about the country’s current political situation. This goes for all other bands who want to cater to their own personal agendas. Nobody cares!
So after four years since their last new album, Linkin Park gives us this. Makes me wonder what they did with the other three and a half years.
Other than weirdo hippies, does anyone actually listen to Bjork? Are there people that actually say,
“I’m going to go to Best Buy today and buy the new Bjork cd”?
Who is supporting and encouraging Bjork to keep making music for as long as she has? I know she thinks she’s being artsy and all that crap, but it just comes across as being weird, confusing, and stupid. I just watched her perfom on SNL and can’t help get the letters W, T, and F out of my head. What the hell did I just watch? Hey, the colors of the keys on that piano were reversed (white keys were black, black keys white). Maybe it’s her way of making a statement about race relations in America.
But on another note, Scarlett Johansson is unbelievably drop dead fuhreakin’ gorgeous. Wawaweewa!
Would anyone out there be apposed to a 5-year ban on radio play for the band Nirvana, or does everyone like hearing 15 year old songs played every half hour?
I have nothing against Nirvana, but for god’s sake, I don’t need to hear “Smells Like Teen Spirit” or “Heart Shaped Box” 30 times everyday! There has been no break from these and other Nirvana songs for years. Cobain has been dead for 15 years. Is this some really annoying way of honoring him? Why not just create a radio station that plays nothing but Nirvana around the clock? Not that they aren’t close to that already. I might appreciate these songs more if I didn’t have to hear them all the freaking time! Tell me I’m not the only one who feels this way. I commute roughly 45 minutes to and from work everyday, and it is guaranteed that I will hear at least one Nirvana song going either way. I say enough is enough!
Another band I could go my entire life without hearing again is Sublime. Now I know all the potheads, stoners, and burnouts will say,
“No way man! Sublime is cool man. You don’t know music man.”
But what I do know is that I don’t want to hear them on the radio anymore. They are overplayed almost as much as Nirvana. Note to all other musicians: if you want to get your music played to the point of exhaustion, be dead!
But since I moved to Los Angeles a couple months ago, I’ve noticed one very good thing about the radio stations here.
Anyone who buys “Diddy’s” new cd should immediately be punched right in the face when at the cash register. They deserve it. Just like “Diddy” himself deserves to be shot in the face. Then he puts this garbage on Youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n3dy71ERzZ8
What the fuck is he even talking about? What a fucking tard! Congratulations Puff, you can read a poem. Then you have Funk Master Flex yelling like a retard about Bad Boi rekids. He is the second most obnoxious guy in hip hop next to Diddy.
Press play? More like press stop. Actually, press eject, take the cd over to the toilet, and press flush. That is if you were actually stupid enough to buy it, which in that case, see above statement.
Diddy, please die.
I wish the Smashing Pumpkins were still together. Man they were an awesome band. They had it all. Not like alot of the crappy bands we have today.
While I’m on the subject of music, Korn sucks. They used to be good like 8 years ago. Now they just suck and their songs are unlistenable. Does anyone still think they’re cool? I hope not.
