Worst Major Signed Band EVER!!!

BedroomSessions	Date: May 12, 2004 @ 1:29 PM My votes go to Nickelback and Creed! There so fucking bad! A.C. would be if they werent so funny. And to make it a top 3 i'll have to add in Puddle of Mudd or Staind (who sucked live)....that makes four
starseven	Date: May 12, 2004 @ 1:39 PM wowm hose are all great choises.. but i woudl have to say metallica, and godsmack..... but then again i think we can lump godsmack in with the bands you mentioned, and just call it.. "shitty bands that rip off alice in chains"
BedroomSessions	Date: May 12, 2004 @ 2:06 PM yeah...dont forget pearl jam!
BedroomSessions	Date: May 12, 2004 @ 2:07 PM as one of the bands being ripped off! before im accused of having less knowledge than a small bean
geozero	Date: May 12, 2004 @ 2:24 PM There are so many shitty bands that have been signed and are being signed one has to wonder why... It comes down to what the Majors see as money making potentials, they achieve this by doing 2 things, making recording deals (usually 3-5 albums) and development deals. The recording deal basically is used to get bands with a certain audience accepted "sound". In other words if the music today was country rock, then you'd see a bunch of new country rock clone bands. The Majors are only looking for 1 hit to sell an album of otherwise crappy tunes. They only need 1 hit in the Billboards Top 100 to MAKE MONEY. They then put the band on a tight live concert schedule, 100-150 or more shows, and the Mahors make MORE MONEY. Now every once in a while they find a band with a potential of more than 1 hit - JACKPOT!!!! This leads to part 2... Part 2 - once the Major has a tope selling band or artist that can actually sing or write more than 1 hit, they scoop up as many other bands that "sound" like the big hit band, and give then a development deal. This is just a way to keep them out of ciculation from the other Majors. That way they can promote their Big Hit Band without as much competition which equals - MORE BIGRE JACKPOT. In this way, you may be lucky to see a band do 1-2 albums, sometimes 3, by this time, music tastes have changed, and they are either dropped or forced to come up with the remaining albums under contract without any more promotion being made. And that's why there are so many 1-hit wonders and shitty bands...
blubat	Date: May 12, 2004 @ 2:34 PM worst signed by far is nickelback...omg can you please play the same song 15 times on an album and then make a whole new album with the same 15 tracks...and then sign bands like theory of a deamen to your label and have them produce more of the same identical boring "lets put phil to sleep" songs. OMG THEY SUCK. Other really band signed bands would have to be SIMPLE PLAN...does this get any worse...i dont even want to comment on how bad these guys are. ughhhhh some good relaitvely unknown bands Moneen Anberlin (yes i know they are on tooth and nail records but still unheard of in canada...for the most art) Boys Night out... and on and on.
Intergalacti...	Date: May 12, 2004 @ 2:54 PM what??? half of you dont know what your talkin about. the worst band ever to be signed is bloody taking back sunday they can't make the singer sound good on the bloody record let alone live. also we're forgettin people like busted, the rasmus who are on a fuckin rock label have yuo heard their fuckin album its a club album for fucks sake all the bands so far mentioned are bloody awesome compared to these!!!!
sinai	Date: May 12, 2004 @ 4:13 PM Wham!
robbydadrummer	Date: May 12, 2004 @ 6:22 PM my vote is for Fred Durst... not Limp Bizkit, just Fred. i want him dead.
kingo	Date: May 13, 2004 @ 10:28 AM Elvis! The Doors! The Partridge Family! The Jack Van Impe All Stars! Nirvana! Green Day! David Bowie! Sister Sledge! The Who! The Beatles! The I'm Having A Problem Here And I Can't Stops! Belt Sander! The Rolling Stones!
Intergalacti...	Date: May 13, 2004 @ 10:46 AM What the hell halaka you should burn in hell for that list. Apart from the one or two they're all great bands. Or are you one of those people who just listen to one type of music?
CowgirlBebop	Date: May 13, 2004 @ 11:45 AM I'd go with the Creed/Nickelback crowd too. I'm so sick of all those bands where the guys sing like that...distored vowels and so on. Pisses me off.
kingo	Date: May 13, 2004 @ 12:10 PM Intergalactic: I wasn't, erm, well, it's not. The thing is, that, well. You can't MAKE a list like this. It's nothing more than a list of bands that suck, or bands that someone thinks suck and some other guy has pictures of tattooed all over his forehead. I LIKE Nickelback, is the thing, and I like Puddle of Mudd. I don't care much for the Doors, honestly, but the rest of those, you know, I'm just, you know. I mean I LOVE the Partridge Family and Big Bird, and I really do hate the Jack Van Impe All Stars, and Nirvana's cool except that one guy's dead and all, and Sister Sledge probably sucks, I can't remember, and The Rolling Stones usually suck because Mick Jagger can't really sing or sound good at all, and.. and.. And another thing, this "Creed/Nickelback" thing stumps me. I hate Creed, oh boy do I hate Creed. But I don't really see the connection there. I certainly don't only listen to one type of music, except inasmuch as I listen to music that is music and not, say, notmusic. Though sometimes I guess maybe I listen to that, too. I am burning in hell as we speak, though, so you can lay to rest your concerns in that arena. In conclusion: Green Pants, alleged tactical malfeasance in a bread bowl, too hot to sit on, oh yeah the major labels, or if you'd like Elvis is not dead and was never actually on a label and never released any records, he was just lip synching while Mili Vanili lost their "l"s, and Fred Durst is, indeed, the only guy that really can unarguably be on this list.
blubat	Date: May 13, 2004 @ 1:01 PM Halaka is my god...that is the greatest reply i have ever seen in my life. i dont know how you write like that but it makes me want to dance a jig.
ryanwilliams	Date: May 13, 2004 @ 2:20 PM ?
jessemills	Date: May 13, 2004 @ 3:09 PM nearly all so-called "modern rock bands". of course Fuel, Creed, etc. etc. help me Jesus New Found Glory, those bastards. They make me want to either kill someone or take a flower-arranging class, I'm not sure which.
kredd	Date: May 13, 2004 @ 3:44 PM speaking of bands that suck, what's up with this polyphonic cult/band where everyone dresses in white and blows bubbles and smiles, sings and dances? the fact that they believe they are good and that everyone thinks they are good also just makes me want to vomit. what the crap??? and yes, nickelback and creed so suck. my roommate bought theory of a deadman and i literally thought i was listening to nickelback until he told me it wasn't. sad. the first time i ever heard plush by stone temple i thought pearl jam had a new song out. it drove me nuts cause the music didn't sound like pearl jam - just weiland. glad he changed up his style with each album. whew!
Thaspian	Date: May 13, 2004 @ 6:40 PM Anything after Pearl Jam - Ten is truly horrible.
100thmonk	Date: May 13, 2004 @ 7:20 PM i am glad to be able to play music, and listen to it freely. these discussions are just the type of thinking which results in atrophy of the curiosity. which in turn results in what geozero was trying to point out. (if it's possible to agree halaka, i think i do) listen to more music! there all out there just trying to make a buck, and probably barely doing it too. i can appreciate the fact that a band is out there making music, working as hard as they know how to tell their musical story. what else is there? in my world there is so much music, i could barely listen to a song more than a couple of times, unless it was a diamond. there just simply is not enough time to think one band in a growing cornucopia of music is worth all that energy.
RaXDaCapo	Date: May 13, 2004 @ 7:25 PM To me the worse band would have to say Jet. they annoy me. I like Nickelback and Fuel. Fuel is one of my favorites. As for Creed, the only Creed song I like is One. They use to be good until my mom started singing their songs, and all their videos started to look the same. They annoy me too. And all those bands with too much helium in their voices.
jessemills	Date: May 18, 2004 @ 2:29 AM people are being nice by not saying anything in response. but dude, you just singlehandedly KILLED this thread!!!
BedroomSessions	Date: May 18, 2004 @ 7:26 AM hehehehe
djfacemachine	Date: May 18, 2004 @ 11:16 AM i don't like nickelback. or puddle of mudd. http://www.ultimatemetal.com/~bumble/Nickelback%20-%20How%20You%20Remind%20Me%20Of%20Someday.mp3 two nickelback songs at the same time. they are so much the same!
Intergalacti...	Date: May 18, 2004 @ 12:33 PM Yeah halaka I don't mind people havin other tastes its just I was gettin the impression you said they sucked when nearly all of those bands you said are very talented whether people like them or not. I mean I like Nickleback I really don't know why they're hated so much its the same with Limp Bizkit their talented I don't know why peoplwe dont give them props. It just angers me when people say bad things about a talented band because they dont like them.
Aibrean	Date: May 18, 2004 @ 1:43 PM any band that has outsiders write their music (excluding classical musicians).
alexamustang	Date: May 18, 2004 @ 2:07 PM nickelback do regurgitate the same stuff over and over. listen to the albums, it starts off with guitar, bass and drums come in then his shit voice. sorry, they might be the worst band ever to take themselves so seriously
jessemills	Date: May 22, 2004 @ 9:12 AM FUCK this nu-grunge shit. all the bands I loved growing up, like Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Blind Melon, etc., those guys are either gone or flying below the radar now. all the new shit is just paint-by-numbers. even Scott Weiland eventually came to his senses and stopped imitating Eddie Vedder. Scott Stapp on the other hand... It's all "let's see how hard and alienated we can sound". it's DRECK. but the thing that really ticks me off is the fact that that the guy they're all ripping off, Jerry Cantrell from Alice in Chains, is barely selling records. Eyes Adrift, with guys from The Meat Puppets and Nirvana, same deal. they couldn't even afford to tour Europe, so they broke up. sigh.
vucky	Date: May 23, 2004 @ 4:47 AM I don't know. They mostly great!
roboticgentl...	Date: May 23, 2004 @ 5:41 AM ahhhhhhhhhh nu-metal makes me sad and want to die!!!
ChadAffe	Date: May 23, 2004 @ 7:06 AM havnt found the best one. all worst!
Emoceon	Date: May 23, 2004 @ 11:59 PM I like nickelback. I like Fuel. maybe...just maybe...there songs sound the same...just maybe....its because that is there style. so when you listen to van halen i guess your saying since his style is the same that it is bad...so in other words...your saying...that since you all don't like a band...that they must obviously suck....well to each there own...to each there own......
slave2thetra...	Date: May 24, 2004 @ 1:38 AM ah wtf is going on here.. nickelbacks first album rocked ass but thats when they were a lot heavier. i have some personal issues w/ the singer cuz hes a dick but theyre not even close to the worst signed band ever.. whoever said pearl jam...die. there were many very good bands listed here most likely by ppl who just listen to one or two songs and look no further before they say they suck. anyway i could write about this crap for a day. isntead ill just submit the worst signed band ever..Simple Plan. I HATE THEM.
jessemills	Date: May 24, 2004 @ 4:50 AM Here is a very nice video of the lead singer from Nickelback getting hit in the head with rocks. http://media.skoopy.com/vids/vid_00174.wmv
victorsskull	Date: May 24, 2004 @ 10:53 AM ah they all suck and I rock
Emoceon	Date: May 24, 2004 @ 1:44 PM that clip was stupid...he wasn't bein a dick to anybody and they pelt him with rocks..so what you are sayin is....that sense YOU think there music sucks...that it is funny when THOSE bands get physically hurt...tahts stupid
alexamustang	Date: May 24, 2004 @ 2:42 PM but it was a real rock right? hahahahahahahahahaha
sinai	Date: May 24, 2004 @ 3:27 PM 2 words... american idol
striPPed	Date: May 24, 2004 @ 10:06 PM SIMPLE PLAN.
jessemills	Date: May 25, 2004 @ 6:56 AM PIMPLE BLAND.
robbydadrummer	Date: May 25, 2004 @ 9:02 AM fred durst must die!!
jessemills	Date: May 26, 2004 @ 8:07 PM Yes! He must diet! I'll kill him with a spork!
Emoceon	Date: May 26, 2004 @ 9:34 PM die
Deadlock	Date: May 28, 2004 @ 5:07 AM just a thought on the NickelBack bashing. i liked the one where the person above says they have two songs that are the same, from up above, well, neither song uses the same chords. they are just the opposite, yes they may sound the same, but to me that's a genius if all of you are fooled cause they do not even so much as has 1 chord that's the same in either song. and as far as worst band ever signed, that award should go to the white stripes, thats the most awful music ever made. It's always the real stupid music that becomes big, so what does that tell you?? that there is alot of stupid people in the world. PERIOD
ICF	Date: May 28, 2004 @ 1:58 PM Yeah i agree on the white stripes, even though one was quite addictive - Its just awful!
ICF	Date: May 28, 2004 @ 1:59 PM thats "in my opinion" before you all kill me
Intergalacti...	Date: May 28, 2004 @ 5:48 PM You know when you put a full stop you don't need to put period and techincally it should be the last post on this forum so it was pretty pointless doing that lol. I like the white stripes they've bought blues back, Ok they havent done it in the best style or fashion but they've had a good go. I'm keen on all of their singles.
Intergalacti...	Date: May 28, 2004 @ 6:01 PM I knew someone would do Fred Durst as well he's actually very intelligent its just people don't like his music. No one can say the worst signed band because there are so many different types of bands and no one knows what good musicians they are. First of all before anyone starts throwin accusations that Eddie Van Halen sucks don't. He is the one of the greatest guitarist to ever walk the face of this planet and more importantly one fo the greatest musicians. Along with Lee Roth I think, anyway thats not important he wrote some of the greatest songs ever. If you want proof look at the record sales. 50 million records worldwide should be enough evidence for you. Limp Bizkit they are good, no the are great at what they do it may not be to everyones taste. Why I don't know but still they saw an openin in the market and took it. If thats what they enjoy then let them do it. Fred Durst has 'Fred Durst hate sites' and shit like that made up about him he's one of the most intelligent writers and singers around at the moment. So what its rap/rock if yuo don't like it get a little culture into your lives maybe not everyone loves this boy band crap your into or punk maybe. The White Stripes, OK I'll give it to them, they're deluded but they're both musicians and everyone takes the piss of her syncopated drumming. Have yuo ever thought that she might be wanting to do that? A lot of blues drumming does follow the guitar line I'll have you know. I know I've said that I think Taking back Sunday are the worst major signed band on this thread. And that is because of the singin. Even on the record he can't sing. I've got no problem with the musicians. Ok they play the same guitar melodies as everyone else but they're not doing anythin wrong good luck to them but guys ditch your singer. I heard a bag of cats who live down the road want to be in a band maybe you could try them out. Still just to get my point accross. Everyone is good at what they do apart frokm the barbie dolls or blatantly obvious shove shit in your face singers. So just leave the moaning out of it because at the end of the day, they make a hundred thousand for every gig do when your tryin to sell your music through a free site on the internet.
jessemills	Date: May 30, 2004 @ 3:04 AM it's all subjective. sorry, but I can't help hate pompous rock stars and musicians who take their cues from that helpful pamphlet "How To Get on The Bandwagon and Make Millions". i take my music very seriously, and it bugs the crap out of me to see the image supercede the art. i live in the town where fuel, poison and live are all from, and cockrock rules the day here. it sucks to see so many people pour out their heart and souls for their music and get ignored for it. we keep on pluggin on because this what we love to do. no one's paying me to breathe, but that's what gives me life. music is the same way.
robbydadrummer	Date: May 30, 2004 @ 7:17 AM fred durst has hates sites because he is a pompous ass and brought it on himself. he may have some intelligence, but he isn't very smart. anyone who openly threatens to kick the shit out of fellow musicians on stage (Jon from Korn, Steven from Taproot, etc.), goes out of their way to blacklist a band from the industry (talking about the Taproot incident), and whines and gripes very publicly about being dissed by Britney (it was a "no brainer" this was going to happen) deserves to be bashed. Limp Bizkit the band was at least somewhat talented musically and i like most of the music (not so much now without wes, and rumor is that john is quitting.. so much for the talent), but fred's whiny crap he spits out ruins it... especially when he butchers a great classic like "Behind Blue Eyes". fred must die.
jackietan	Date: May 31, 2004 @ 7:25 AM Two words........GOOD CHARLOTTE
bastardo23	Date: May 31, 2004 @ 12:02 PM alright!! finally something i may comment on with a bit of piss and vinegar!! well deadlock, i hope your ego can take you as far as you think your going. you may be signed, but if you think you can diss the white stripes because they don't play what you think is cool, or play to your standard of technical skill your just kidding yourself. to call this duo stupid, and what they do stupid is absolutely ridiculous.(i suppose you think you should define what more people enjoy, but you don't). people have been dying for a little melody since Sub Pop came on the scene with all of that uninspiring followup to nirvana, and the majors obsession with rap, and it's tendency towards repetativeness and lack of melody. get a grip you proggo fruitcakes at least they can write a song.. most of the music i have heard on this site could never compare to that.. lemme see just one of you write that many serious pop ditty's yourself, then i'll hear comments like that. if you think writing a pop song with a catchy hook is easy, then why are you here, giving your music away. oh i know, your better than that, and want to do something "original" this "oh, i'm so much more talented than them" nonsense is just out of control. besides which, opinions about music are only so much trivia. WHO CARES WHAT YOU THINK ABOUT WHO IS A GOOD BAND ANYWAY? REALLY? IS IT GONNA CHANGE THE WORLD, OR MAKE IT A BETTER PLACE? OR IS IT JUST AN EXCUSE TO GET IN A DRUNKEN BRAWL WITH SOMEONE?
BedroomSessions	Date: May 31, 2004 @ 2:13 PM the drunken brawl one. thats the one i like
cagedrage	Date: May 31, 2004 @ 5:07 PM AHAHAHA,WHITE STRIPES DO SUCK BASDARDO. and if you notice so does most of the other people who post after that think so as well, why did you just direct your shitty comments towards one person? Your such a Tard. Jack white has even more of a sloppy guitar technique than Kurt cobain did, and you call, "i'm going to Witchatall baby..." good music writing? fucking 1982 all over again without the musical talent behind it. So yeah I agree, their music is aaggggghhhhhhh stick it man \m/ metal forever, it will always rules that's why VH1 is running a metal mania all day today and the next 5 nights doing speacials on metal for 5 hours, why do you suppose that is dipshit? cause the record companies are starting to see that metal is mak9ing a huige comeback and theyare trying to hurry up and get back on the band wagon and pretend they been there all along. then where will be opne hit wonders white stripes, CRAP and funk i mean PUNK be?? in tha dirt. whahhahhahaahahhahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaa
BedroomSessions	Date: May 31, 2004 @ 5:12 PM well if the labels are commercialising it because its gonna go mainstream again it must be good. NO FUCKING QUESTION. jackass...
bastardo23	Date: June 1, 2004 @ 2:04 PM metal forever that's cool if ya think so, and also if ya think the white stripes aren't good. i suppose you really didn't read the post anyway.
Thaspian	Date: June 1, 2004 @ 3:59 PM vic! I wote for william hung.
Maffmatix	Date: June 1, 2004 @ 4:13 PM Just wait for us to get signed.
100thmonk	Date: June 1, 2004 @ 4:40 PM in tha dirt. whahhahhahaahahhahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaa that's a good thing?
torndownunit	Date: June 1, 2004 @ 6:22 PM I saw an interview with the dink from Nicleback and he was complaining about people saying they suck. He said "How can we suck when we sold 20 million albums...20 million people don't think we suck". Ya well 20 million people (or more) also bought Vanilla Ice's album and a million other horrible albums.
staind1	Date: June 1, 2004 @ 6:28 PM so what? that just happened to appeal to those 20 someodd million people, when you compare it to the billions of people in the world that's a pretty small number. look it's like this. if a band plays a style or something you don't like, people will say they suck, personally, i think that anybody who plays an instrument is pretty cool.
robbydadrummer	Date: June 1, 2004 @ 7:08 PM fred must die.

staind1	Date: June 2, 2004 @ 6:17 AM anybody who plays an instrument is pretty cool. I wish i could suck so bad that 20 million people would buy my albums.
robbydadrummer	Date: June 4, 2004 @ 4:38 PM we don't have to worry about Creed anymore. they just disbanded...
torndownunit	Date: June 5, 2004 @ 4:59 AM Different strokes for different folks. I am very open minded musically. I listen to everything under the sun. I just find bands like Nickleback and Creed generic, over-produced, sounding crap. Someone mentioned the White Stripes earlier. I am not a fan, but I would take their music which actually has a little soul over most of the other stuff I hear on the radio. I would take some originality any day. In Canada we have Default, Nickleback and Theory of a Deadman who all sound the exact same. I seriously can't tell the 3 bands apart if I hear them on the radio. And no matter what anyone says to me, they all sound just like Creed to me. I just can't stand the style of music, never mind 4 bands that sound almost identical.

Pagan	Date: June 5, 2004 @ 2:03 PM the white stripes are the worst band i have ever heard. for anyone who says metallica is untalented is insane. although i havent liked much since the black album.aparently they havent heard metallica
SoulBeats	Date: June 5, 2004 @ 3:15 PM Lotsa those where they came from. But the worst... stretches braincells... Too many to choose from. Metallica is pretty shitty nowadays, but from what I've heard they still throw kickass gigs. Or so do the finnish Metallica gig-goers say.
BedroomSessions	Date: June 5, 2004 @ 4:09 PM yeah i saw them live, and im not finnish. i think they were pretty top
Emoceon	Date: June 5, 2004 @ 7:19 PM staind sux i think...they did a real terrible job on mtv icon....
LowREz	Date: June 7, 2004 @ 4:53 AM Well the worse possible band who could ever be signed are the rasmus. Do you know what rasmus is? It's a fucking joke. Literally. My dad Used to tell me jokes about a jamaican man named Rasmus. They were funny. The band is not. They make me vomit with fury.
YaBoyDrew	Date: June 15, 2004 @ 1:49 PM idk BUT ima gunna guess a PoP band
sqrlcub	Date: June 15, 2004 @ 1:53 PM I really loathe the GooGoo Dolls. Every time I hear them I turn it off. I understand how they got signed but they are painful to listen to...them and Macy Gray (I want to like her but her voice has the exact quality of nails on a chalkboard to me).
Intergalacti...	Date: June 16, 2004 @ 6:21 AM Pagan no one has said that Metallica are untalented in this conversation. The White Stripes aren't everybodies favourite band i knwo and I will agree that live performances arent the greatest. But some of the greatest bands in the world didnt have the best live performances its to do with emotion as well as technical ability ya know? Rasmus had that single and that was a huge hit. My mate said to me that their a\lbum was basically a dance CD even though one of the biggest goths I know listen to it. The most music that peoploe have controversy over is always the commercialised music that the record company have not stopped playin and radios have not stopped playin. This is not the bands fault and I bet quite a few people have liked bands or songs on here until they have been over-played. That doesnt make it a bad song it makes it an ovber-played song. And thats not their fault. I'm quotin dicktruth when I say this or MIke Bowers either one 'if MTV offered to play your music video would you turn it down?' You'd be stupid not to, and I see no problem with people who do. Next thing, going on from that in Canada they all sound the same. Well thats canada. Lol sorry no offense meant. But a lot of bands sounds the same they don't mean to its all about bein inspired by the same bands really. I've got two songs that were inspired by the Londoner Polly Paulusma, she's a brilliant song writer. And I didn't mean this song to turn out like hers but thats the CD that was in my stereo when I wrote that song. Thats life and people who can't accept someone bein famous simply have to grow up. Everyone who's famous has somethin whether its looks or talent. They've got there somehow and 75% of the time they've worked hard to get there.
100thmonk	Date: June 16, 2004 @ 10:55 PM for me, macy gray is great, and is carrying the torch that tina turner hasn,t been carrying for almost a decade now. for some people the tonal quality of macy is edgy, but i gotta say i love her work, even if i don't like her personality. .
comorbid	Date: June 17, 2004 @ 2:31 AM I know I'm all late with this response, but: The sad thing about the Limp Bizkit version of Behind Blue Eyes is that, while many people consider it to be a complete bastardization of the original, it's probably the best song they've ever done. I know people who avoid them like the plague but the first time they hear that specific song and find out who it is, their reaction is generally "this can't be Limp Bizkit...this is GOOD." It's like people I've heard complaining about the 311 cover of Lovesong. I didn't think it was stellar - they really shouldn't have used any distortion for the guitar, I thought it just seemed out of place - but they certainly made it their own. But, well...covers. You either love em or hate em. shrugs
figfarmer	Date: June 17, 2004 @ 8:24 AM I would have to say that going by their ability to generate revenue I would have to say The(Fill in this blank with the one nearest you.)Philharmonic Orchestra. Why should great country and pop acts struggle when any idiot whose mommy buys him a violin can get subsidized for life?
blubat	Date: June 17, 2004 @ 10:15 AM i would just like to say that however the white stripes do suck...they dont. because the guy has openly admmitted more then once that this is a joke for him, and that he did this just to see how far it would go, he thinks his music sucks...anyways the videos are cool.

Besides, SOME bands that consider themselves "jokes" are pretty fuckin' kick-ass. Not that I personally know of any such bands.
