LIEK OMG!!! DROWNING POOL?!

Seriously, if only it were a band worth caring about uke:

 

[JonWormwood]

Let the bodies hit the floor

 

[Chryst Krispies]

I kinda like the old Drowning Pool, with their old singer and shit.

 

[Zuranthus]

i liked their one hit wonder song

 

[Randyisgod15]

I thought Sinner was a good album, once in a blue moon i'll throw it on for ol' times sake.

Let the Bodies Hit the Floor is one of the biggest examples of why I loathe nu-metal with an almost immeasurable rage - so fucking juvenile and stupid. Haven't heard anything else, doubt it's much better.

 

[Aaron Smith]

"Bodies" is one of the most obnoxious songs I have ever heard, and that "Click, Click, Boom!" song from Saliva is equally, if not MORE obnoxious. Both of those songs have been used incessantly for years and years on the previews for the lamest of lame action movies, and it really gets on my nerves. When I heard that Saliva and Drowning Pool were hitting the road together, meaning I would have the chance to hear two of my least favorite songs in history performed live in the same evening, I became violently ill.

old dp was good though. the sinner album had some heavy tracks w/ it. maybe some of their songs do get over-used but then again there have got to be enough people that listen to them if they get that kind of attention.

[Metaltastic]

Haha, seriously - such subtlety and brilliance on so many levels uke:

A lot of people listen to 50 cent too...

Haha. Add trapt and you have a recipe for every sporting events. I mix "FOH" for a couple of college sports and I get inundated with that stuff. It's this particular breed of lowest common denominator aggression-- but it's still vanilla enough to be acceptable by the general public.

 

[Chryst Krispies]

Dude I don't give FUCK what anyone says about how juvenile some of this music is, it really does make you want to smash something, whether out of anger the music is so bad or not I can't quite say.

It makes me want to smash the source of the audio.

Agreed - the stuff that really gets my adrenaline pumping is the tight, technical, controlled power and brutality of like Decapitated (when they're grooving and not being annoyingly spastic) and of course BEHEMOTH. Nu-metal and hardcore, by comparison, are so boring and uncontrolled and base, like, well, an angry teenager having a tantrum, as opposed to the inhuman rage and power of metal, like a mighty warrior dominating on the fields of battle with controlled, powerful swings of his sword. I love metal

 

[Loren Littlejohn]

While I like a lot of nu metal, metal core, and whatever else gets bashed on a regular basis. Must agree this band is not good including new stuff.

Going to have to say Saliva is around 10 times worse. Saliva is Kid Rock only with 1/100th of the talent.

 

[Chryst Krispies]

Pfff I like a TON of Nu metal, Saliva sucks skeezbag though.

Nononono, dude, actual hardcore is absolutely something else. Heard Blood for Blood's Outlaw anthems, for example? Check that one out ASAP!

Drowning Pool and Saliva, on the other hand... Well, just no.

 

[Aaron Smith]

Does Switched count as nu-metal (Ben Schigel's inactive band)? Because I used to like them a lot, and I still definitely don't mind listening to them. I think they've written some pretty cool stuff actually.
