WHAT ARE YOU
Fuck it I don't know

For the record, the original song is better, though it might not be your cup of tea



Personally, I prefer the very different noisy version from Neu Konservatiw:

I think I need to wash my brain out with bleach!

Man that Heaven's on Fire song is pretty outrageous, very 80...

But Kiss is a band that I want to listen since forever, I don't know where to start. I know all the bullshit that surrounds the band, but given the fact that Sammet, King Diamond, Abbath and Chuck are/were crazy about Kiss, I suspect that maybe they are not that useless... something cool they would have done. Someone knows where I could start?

Japanese? Check. Furries? Check. MS Paint? Check. I think we've found a video that is a condensed representation of the "cringe" side of DeviantArt. (Nothing against DA itself, but...)

The Hell Patrol I mean what gives these guys the god given right to create such a awesomely stupid piece of crap song.




































































JUST KIDDING OF COURSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If It's your opinion, people will admit it even if you are kidding.

Somehow, someway, this might be worse than the horrid karaoke cover I posted of this weeks ago.

That made my skin crawl.

Wow, that sucked! I couldn't even stand 10 seconds through that cover.

What was it that Amy Lee said in 'Tourniquet'? 'I want to die' or something like that? Because that is a pretty good summation of how I feel about that... thing.

Yep. It's "I want to die."

Seeing "Kidz Bop" being suggested in this thread only reminds me of this abomination that isn't official Kidz Bop, but at least ten times worse:

If you look up a list of all the Kidz Bop songs it's kind of funny going through it and searching YouTube for the songs you think will be the most abhorrent. Highlights from the last ten minutes of my life include:





And this one where they change the song's entire meaning:

Kiss should never be mentioned in a "worst songs ever" thread (sure, Heaven's On Fire is one of their worst songs to be honest) especially as long as there's this:



And also this:



Anyway, you can't deny the impact that Kiss had on hard rock and metal even if you consider them a worthless band. To each their own, though.

Meghan Trainor is everywhere now. She's not the worst I've ever heard but "Lips Are Movin" is certainly one of her bad ones.

Dear god, the chorus in that Lips Are Movin song is musical crack. Producers have finally cracked the code of catchiness. That video is hideous though.

EEHHHHH EEEHHHHHH EEEHHHHHH EEEEHHHHHH

I mean, whose idea was that?

This has to be one of the worst violations of a classic metal song by any artist with some sort of notability. Much in the same way that Vader chugged in 'Freezing Moon', Static-X saw fit to chug in 'Behind the Wall of Sleep'.

Its Static-X. You don't even need to listen to it to already know its going to be really really bad.

On a similar note though, I was actually shocked at how good Disturbed's version of Simon and Garfunkel's "The Sound of Silence" was. It is by far the best thing they have ever done. It may be the ONLY GOOD thing they have ever done, in fact, but it is surprising how well their version of that song turned out.

Aside from the Freezing Moon remark, this is exactly what I thought when I first heard this cover years ago. At first I thought Static-X didn't even use any of the original music, but on closer inspection, the original riffs are there, they are just waaaaaaaaaaaay in the background.

I've been trying for the last two minutes to come up with something to say about Napalm's stupid comment about the Freezing Moon cover, but I think what he said is so dumb that it's impossible for me to put into words how dumb it is.

--

Chthonic's cover of Painkiller is quite bad. They added a bunch of pointless blasting and the way they reimagined how to play the song completely kills it.

I should point out that I've never heard that cover before, I based that comment on a quote someone had in their signature. I assume that there actually is no chugging in 'Freezing Moon'?

There is but comparing it to a fucking cover by a completely different band with a different purpose behind the music like Static-X is dumb.

OK fair enough. It was the first cover of a classic metal song I could think of with chugging

Discovered this on rateyourmusic.com and it's just amazing.

It's like this guy milked out everything atrocious in dungeon synth and distributed it on mp3.

Though I agree with what you're saying, I think you missed The Droog's base argument, that electronic music has a stigma in the mainstream that it's all dance music, not that it actually is all dance music. Only an uninformed moron would actually say all electronic music is dance floor music, probably along with "all rap is shit" and "all indie is pretentious Radiohead-Beatles wannabe shit".

Also it's not really helping your argument that electronic music doesn't have a stigma that it's all dance music when you list a quote that literally admits that such a stigma exists.

Imagine if I released a rock record or a rap record and had to state "You're not supposed to dance to this." You'd think I was being a redundant twat if not wonder where I even got the idea that you were supposed to dance to it from. But when it comes to electronic music most people immediately think of it as dance music and are actually stunned when it's something more like Aphex Twin. I've even heard people unironically call Radiohead's 'Kid A' "electronic dance music", and these are otherwise respectable music listeners.

To kill off this baseless stigma (and get rid of those 12 year olds who say you can't make real music with a computer), we need a non-dance electronic record to really blow it out of the park on the charts and radio.

This is incredible, thank you.

edit: holy fuck there's a Iommiesque solo in here!

get Carly Rae the FUCK OUTTA DIS THREAD. how dare you.

more like carly bae

I may be 2 years too late, and maybe somebody has already said this over the course of the thread, but The Shaggs are actually great.
It's like somebody made a Captain Beefheart record by accident. It's incredible.
An interesting piece of trivia, Kurt Cobin listed Philosophy of the World as his favorite album of all time.


Ye is the GOAT, and Bound 2 is one of the best tracks off Yeezus.

Yes, I came here just to disagree with people. Unapologetically, as well.

You actually like her?

This is a prime example of why alternative rock is garbage that killed rock music.

Alright, usually I don't really care about modern pop music, because it never really changes and there is no point complaining about it, but there is this song out right now called "Panda" and it is one of the worst pop songs I have EVER heard in my entire life. It seriously makes me cringe on levels I didn't know were possible.

Also, Panda is a really good song, and I was listening to it months ago, when it first came out.
That being said, it will probably be nothing compared to this new Desiigner track.

Not out yet, but from the snippet it sounds amazing. Might be one of the best songs of the year is the finished track is as good as I hope it is.

I actually think modern rap (trap, cloud rap, drill, etc.) has a lot in common with extreme metal in general, in terms of melody, energy, and dark themes, but especially in the atmosphere. Current rap, as well as a lot of the music which is influenced by it, is actually a bit avant-garde, pop music or not.
Sure, it's popular with kids, but it's actually very alien sounding to more conservative music fans, much in the same way that Motorhead or Venom must have sounded decades ago.

There's also this cool punk rock aspect to it, from the simplicity and the fact that so many musical conventions are broken, both in terms of the creative process and in the actual composition. In all seriousness, if you dive into the catalog of say, Chief Keef, there is a level of experimentation and creativity which is unmatched at least amongst other forms of current pop music.

I get the feeling you're trying to be all edgy and sophisticated. What's it like viewing life through those hipster glasses?

Just stick to huffing glue mate, it's better for your musical taste than sniffing your own farts.

Keep wearing cargo shorts, fam.

Don't even know what cargo shorts are, mate.
