Braindead.Hey, what do you get if you cross the shouty bits from Linkin Park songs, the fake posturing macho idiot raps of Limp Bizkit and guys wearing masks just like Slipknot? The worst thing ever? Well, no - but you're close. Hollywood Undead, then. Coming to every easily manipulated 14 year old "skater" near you. And if this stupid song isn't enough to make you hate them, in all its moronic, homophobic, chest beating, Ozzy Osbourne stealing, nothing to say glory, consider the fact that the people who created it are called, oh dear, "Johnny 3 Tears", "J-Dog", "Da Kurlzz" and "Tha Producer." Honestly, I'm not even making that up. Man, who picked the short straw and ended up being called Da Kurlzz? And Johnny 3 Tears sounds like the name of a guy who gets raped in prison in exchange for cigarettes. So it's rap. It's rock. It's another bunch of idiots shouting into microphones pretending they're against the system ("cause we don't follow the rules"..."from these industry f**ks") while selling the exact same song to soundtrack the G.I Joe movie. Wow, sticking to your moral guns there, huh guys? That'll teach those suits, putting your music on a billion dollar movie. Maybe they wear those masks to hide their blushes. Let's get one thing straight; dumb and rock can work well together, if done well. Downright ignorance, on the other hand, and rock music, most certainly do not. The lyrics about telling haters to go slit their wrists and jump off bridges I can handle, but the casual, pointless repetition of the word "fa**ot" not only makes them look like cretins, it just reinforces the idea that homosexuality is wrong to a generation of rock kids that, fifteen years ago, would be listening and absorbing the likes of Rage Against The Machine, a band that didn't talk about having brass knuckles in the trunk of the car or how much it takes to get them drunk, but could, and still would, eat these talentless jokers for breakfast. You see, rock music SHOULD challenge the system, it should break rules and boundaries and challenge authority. They should command respect and strike fear in the hearts of not only your parents but government figures. Body Count did it. RATM did it. Eminem did it. Marilyn Manson did it. Hollywood Undead don't deserve respect and they'll never be feared. They've got nothing to say, nothing to add and will only appeal to big-shorted fools. They deserve to get laughed at, pitied and then forgotten. Make it so. See: Hollywood Undead - Undead video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-7795281474488660592

Nice Body Count reference. That band changed me. The vid link is busted. I feel somewhat happy about that. The last relevant song I heard to the word "faggot" was on Korn's debut. That's a decade and a half of irrelevance. Christ this sounds like an awful thing. This is why I avoid radio and music videos.

Yeah, but at least the Korn song was about people calling Jonathon a faggot - difference. Here they just throw the term around for, ah, "effect." Here's the video. As the Manic Street Preachers once said, Know Your Enemy. www.puregrainaudio.com/videos/hollywood-undead-undead-explicit-versionIf its any hint to the fanbase of this song, a guy who once told me Tupac was a better musician than Prince loves it. Make of that what you will.

Some ICP in there too. God, not one note or square millimeter of these guys is original. At least it had fake lesbians and topless punk rock girls who have sex with their underwear still on. Good to know these guys practice REALLY safe sex and think dykes are cool 9to get attention) even if everybody else is a fag. Fake tits are for losers, though. It's a sad, sad thing when even naked chicks making out with each other isn't enough to make me sit through a whole music video. Childish and pathetic, the whole thing.

You may slag Limp Bizkit and their rapping Mr C but Fred Durst has delivered what I consider to be the most of sage of advice.....
"Hey kid, take my advice, ya don't wanna step into a big pile of shit".
I couldn't of said it better Fred. Genius.

I saw these live for some unknown reason. To get wasted or join a cult of idiots - who knows. I was there and couldn't agree with you more. I can bop my head and claim I am popping pussy like I'm (really?) """""Ashton Kutcher""""" but straight up, these guys are a poor excuse for a band. Their lyrics are terrible and pointless. They have burnt out now and hopefully will go away and annoy some other medium. My problem with them is this. They give it the big we are and yet have fuck all to show for it. They tell there story through song that they are tired of these haters gettin' up in their face and they have fought from the streets to be who they are. Good for you. Why the fuck do I care when your whole stage set is flimsy and shit. Go and waste someone else's sound waves.
