Cqb, I bet you wouldn't like them that much if you understood the lyrics.

Nothing wrong with them, but is the second guy from the left a midget? Wow, he is short. My comments on the bands discussed? They have taken there persona to a whole new level, just like ICP, Rammstein, Cradle of Filth, etc, they start to think that they are their respective characters and it gets old, REALLY quick.

Remember when Kiss and Misfits went to WCW? heh, those were the days.

That is all.

Hell yeah!

Ok, I'm just going to be honest.

You're not funny, and those guys look f*** stupid.
gee I dont rememeber asking anyone what they think about mushroomhead. god some times I swear the people here are so ignorant, it blows me away, I know I act real stupid here, but man I feel like you people are attacking me, god mabey your the one that looks like a retard.
you people need to be more open minded and not so damn stupid and not attack others that are just being nice.

you people really need to shape up, and believe me when I say ive been told this be many people before, but you people (those that dissed mushroomhead) are real jackasses.
Posting random pictures saying it's you just isn't funny, nor was it ever. That's my real point. I just stated that they looked stupid, because well.. in my opinion, they do. Calm down, alright?
who said I was trying to be funny.

I'll hop on the GC thing here. I can't stand them. They seem to be intentionaly ripping off every 'punk' band before them, and even bands outside of punk. Take their MTV VMA performance with the cheerleaders... in black... with red and black pom-pom's and red anarchy A's over their left brest. Sound familar? Nirvana's SLTS video had them, over ten years before, yet GC says they came up with it.

Their music really has no lyrics I can connect with. I'm sorry, but whining about bad girlfriends over and over again gets old. Granted, I haven't heard anything besdies a handful of songs, but they seem to be catering to the "Oh I'm so depressed for no reason" teenage market. If you like 'em, good for you, but untill they do something even remotely original, I'll pass.

Getting back on topic:

IMO, the best artists/groups are the ones who don't adhere to one particular image for long, but rather are dynamic in their appearance due to either the times changing, mood changing, or just overall wanting to try something new for once. Nobody does this better than God himself, Trent Reznor

Let me show you what I mean in a series of pictures from certain NIN videos in different years:

1989:

From the Head Like A Hole video




From the Down In It video




From the Sin video





1992:

From the Wish video




From the Happiness In Slavery video




From the Gave Up video




1994:

From the March Of The Pigs video




From the Closer video




From the Burn video





1997:

From the The Perfect Drug video




1999:

From the We're In This Together video (please pardon the poor quality, SnagIt was being a b**ch)




From the Into The Void video




From the Starf***ers, Inc. video




2001:

From the Deep video




Now, while it's true that his hair and face are consistent in many of the consecutive years, what matters are the CLOTHES; Trent will be dressing like GK one day, like me the next

Well isn't he a Very Pretty Hate Machine...

I'unno I always liked Axl Rose's onstage style. Gotta love a guy who goes onstage wearing a kilt, an N.W.A. cap, and a bulletproof vest

no idea why i'm posting this.....

Yep, Reznor is up there with being able to change his look, but I'd give that to Madonna. Look at how many times she's changed how she looks, how she sounds, how she acts... it's insane really. She went from whore to pry the worlds best mom. Add in the fact that she's always doing new things with her sound.

Sorry to ressurect a 2 day old thread, but, I had to clear something up


How can you say that GC's music is about bad girlfriends??? Most of GC's music isn't about bad girlfriends (some of it is, but what band doesnt have a song or two about that?). First of all, their first real "hit", lifestyles of the rich and famous is about money, not love or girls. There's a song about his dad leaving his family:

Monday he woke up and hated life
Drank until Wednesday and left his wife
Thursday through Saturday lost everything
Woke up on Sunday miserable again

I remember baseball games
And working on the car
Told me that he loved me
And that I would go far
Showed me how to work hard
And stick up for myself
I wish he wasn’t too hard
To listen to himself


Their other singles aren't about bad girlfriends either! (the anthem, Hold On, Young and Hopeless) Dude get your facts straight.

GC music is good for the most part, even thought, as I said before, the members of GC are completely and outrageousely gay.

BTW I HATE the song, the anthem. Definitely one of the worst songs I have heard in a while.
