how exactly these chuds are going to be number one on the Billboard charts next week?


I saw them open for somebody once (can't remember) and it had to be the absolute worst shit I had ever heard or seen. I can't imagine someone purchasing their music on purpose without having a severely low IQ. Is that the only explanation? Or am I missing something?

I originally thought this thread was started by Cowboy Numbers, and was shocked, because this is the exact type of horseshit that Cowboy Numbers would enjoy.

I respectfully disagree. At least at the time, in 98, 99 etc. Limp could be fun. Again, I think they're just a whole new level of awful.

First the Bizkit drops a new ham jam, now this, I think nu-metal is finally making a well-deserved comeback

The best part is the masks. That like, 4 or 5 guys wear. And all they do is sing. All 4 or 5 of them. In masks. That don't have open/moving mouths, so the whole thing looks like an episode of power rangers.

Oh, and and 15 bucks says, if you talk to a member of their fanbase for 15 minutes or less, you'll be told that "The obviously very gimmicky masks are not a gimmick". I heard that from so many Slipknot fans it drove me bananas.

I'm not that familiar with them, but I've seen a buncha random-ass acts get to or near the top of charts mainly because of down sales that week and/or a lack of competition. If someone has a decent enough fanbase, they can shoot up the lists during their initial run. The key is that a lot of these artists end up dropping like a brick right after that (Hollywood Undead is all the way down at #59 this week).
