well at least when you either use autotune or scream on every track it doesn't really matter who your lead singer is.
(j/k, I listen to a lot of music with "screaming")

you take 2 repeated lines from a song and say that's an adequate example of their lyrics?
In that case, no song ever written has any meaning.
I hope this is sarcasm, that isn't even slightly enjoyable, it is seriously some of the most awful music I have ever heard.
Maybe we should have let September 1st happen, and not done anything about it. That would have saved my ears this pain.
CRAB BATTLE!
About Attack Attack, they are ********, do they think that is SUPAH DUPAH HARDCORE! or something? The keyboardist looks like such an idiot, he plays like 10 measures the whole song, and convulses the rest. Ooh, synchronized running in place!

Thank you. I didnt want to just come out and say it, but that band Goatpunch or whatever they're called are AWFUL.
Didnt notice that before. That's a joke, right?
Furthermore, I'm not some metal/hardcore elitist. Besides bands like Black Dahlia Murder, Obscura, and Between the Buried and Me, I'm also a big fan of bands like New Found Glory and A Day to Remember, and actual hardcore bands like Bane and Madball. Hell, I can ever tollerate my girlfriend listening to Lady GaGa in the car, so I'm no hater of pop music.
But Attack Attack? I could care less about how they dress, but the music is just hysterical. The squatting is an added bonus. I literally busted out laughing 3 times when I watched the Stick Stickly video. Once when they started squatting, once when they tossed their guitars above their heads together, and the final time when the techno came in and they all started running in place. So many LOLs.
Like every other metalcore/screamo band ever, they suck.
Trendy, watered-down, and extremely feminine. Much like the hair metal crap of the 80's.
Sorry, that's not metal.

somebody mentioned how dee snyder dressed in the 80s, i overlook that because his music is good. the defention of good verys frm person to person but attack attack beyond the crab thing and head banging their music just isnt good
But all that sounds like a good thing. Why do you consider it a bad thing?
We are planning to deliberately copy some of your favorite elements of that video for our next one, btw.
It's completely serious and non-ironic. It's commercial rap with some screaming thrown in, that's all. And people really do enjoy it. Also, smaller numbers of Internet people really enjoy preening about how they're morally, intellectually and culturally superior to us and our fans - so we provide something of value to them too.

at the risk of sounding rude, you both sound like snobs
*edit* ... and not the "smart" sort of snob, I mean the Monty Python sort. *edit*

If I'm a snob then whom, exactly, am I snubbing? We appreciate and respect both our fans and our haters. I might bait the haters on occasion but you know that I really <3 them.
pklima was that link you left, was that song intended as a joke? i mean bands like blink-182 did that quite often. i would leave links but it prolly get yelled at by mods cuz most of em drop the f bomb every 2 seconds.
Which link, the Freddie and the Dreamers one? They weren't really less serious than other rock bands of the early 60s when it came to their songs, they just had a really short vocalist who liked to act goofy on stage. Or do you mean the Goatbomb link? That is completely serious and non-ironic in every way possible.
Yeah, that's pretty much my assessment of Attack Attack! too. The crab thing is genius, the songs aren't up to the same level.
Heh, I used to play metal as a joke but nobody seemed to get it and people thought I was serious. Now I'm making crunkcore seriously and people keep wishing it was a joke.
Go figure.
Go figure.
