@HylozoistI don't really know what to say about this one; it's not something I'd go out and voluntarily listen to. Very niche and idiosyncratic, but it's kind of carefree and whimsical. Not quite a fan of the style though, not interesting to me. meh/10.

People yelling about positive shit is my jam and peanut butter.

[GirlOnMarz]

@ScreenAcne I was really feelin' it until the screaming started.... then I just got a little scared. Not really my type of thing, so I'd give it a strong 5/10.

[AlteredTundra]

@mskennedy615 I do love me some Cudi. One of the few modern rappers that I can say that I like most — if not all — the stuff he releases. 9/10

[Heat]

@Altered Tundra 8/10

It's not as great as the original, but it's pretty awesome. The woman has crazy voice and it sounds like something I'd bop my head to while in an old timey saloon. I've listened to other covers on that channel, all of them are just so cool in how unique they are done.

[ScreenAcne]

Leave your civilities at the entrance, baby.

@heat 6/10 nice flow, nice voice. Cool rhythm throughout but it's very mellow for rock. The drop at the end just wasn't hyped up enough for me. I like my rock to be the type of shit you get scenes of shot guns and demons to. This was more like, black bard letting loose.

@ScreenAcne 8/10. I dig it, Buckethead's a great guitarist. The riffs in that song are killer, solo too.

[TheMadAsshatter]

@Heat 5/10 Can't say I was a fan. I could get into the instrumentals, but the yelling, in my opinion, didn't go well with it and just felt like screaming for the sake of screaming. It did mesh better in the closing verse, though.

I'm amazed Avenged Sevenfold hasn't popped up yet. Let's rectify that.

[Hylozoist]

@TheMadAsshatter - if I ever need to go on a drug-fuelled road trip a post-apocalyptic wasteland, I'd probably listen to this. The way it sort of swings back and forth between the sort of trippy, dream-like sing-song vocals and the more heart-racing thunk-thunk-thunk style makes it an interesting thing to listen to. Writing about music is hard.

I'd rate it as two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, and a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers and also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of Budweiser, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls / 10.

Here, have some Tom Waits.

[The Elvenqueen]

@Hylozoist Not a huge fan of the beat or his tone of voice personally, I find it quite...grating and unpleasant D:

But my personal opinion aside, I'll give it a 6 or 7/10 because as far as songs go it's not too bad. Got a nice beat, the lyrics are okay and kinda catchy :)


This song is freaking great and more people should love it ;w;

[InfiniteEmbers]

5/10 - Beautiful, but not my cup of tea.

[TheMadAsshatter]

@InfiniteEmbers Hehehehe, oh this song. I enjoy this one, but I burned myself out on it pretty quickly the first time I heard it. 7/10

[Heat]

@TheMadAsshatter 6/10

I didn't understand like any of the lyrics but it was kinda catchy.

[The Elvenqueen]

@Heat 7/10 struggled to understand the lyrics because the beat was louder than the singer, but man I do like it. Not usually into stuff this heavy but the beat is jammin' :)

[Sanctus Spooki]

@The Elvenqueen 6/10 Overall, I like the song, but something about it bothers me, that I can't quite place.

Been jamming to this for a bit now, sorry, dont know how to embed

[TheMadAsshatter]

@Sanctus Spooki You're a dingus. 0/10. [youtube]<url goes here>[/youtube]

Dang, I haven't seen this sinister URL in a long-ass time. We used to have to upload mirrors of the song because everyone eventually had memorized the link to that one, so we weren't able to fool each other unless we created new ones.

Not a personal favorite, but here's for making me sentimental.



@TheMadAsshatter muh guitar reverb, muh crescendo, muh deep and profound shoegaze instrumental with a misleading title

5.5/10 best i can do

[Sanctus Spooki]

Yeah I was really worried someone would remember the URL, I remember it was a thing for a while xD

@TheMadAsshatter Haha, well I learned something on top of some casual trolling! Thank you!

@pugbutter 8/10, wonderful voice, and the type of song I could listen too when I wake up, or sitting on a deck with a cold beer while reminiscing with friends (well that is essentially what the songs about!), only problem is I can see many times where this song would grate on me -sometimes it's nice to not remember! That, and the "lalalalalala", the one right at the end, if that makes any sense.

[Heat]

@Sanctus Spooki 5/10. Her voice is great, the song is really calming and a little catchy. I didn't think it was anything that special though.

[pugbutter]

@Heat 9/10 musicianship, 4/10 vocals

I'm trying to think of what other band this one reminds me of. They sound like Meshuggah too, but Meshuggah aren't the one I'm trying to remember.

I'm sure it'll come to me when I'm trying to sleep in my warm, comfy bed and I'm 25 feet away from a notebook so I'd have to get up in order to jot the name down.
