I find this music minimally interesting. In all honesty it reminds me of being in a casino in Vegas! Perhaps that's why I like it!

Where's the melody?

Its cool... I could have fun with that...

having a gimmick taken to the most extreme to cover up the fact that they can't play their instruments isn't art. It's sh*t.

lol @ Kramer.

I kind of thought the same thing but I didn't want to say it.

I am viewed as cantankerous enough already.

So that's why they had all the color, hmm?

Wow, if only they had something musical going on..

i'm reluctant to call it BS but i do think they're putting one over (or TRYING to put one over, anyway).

the set and costumes aren't enough to hold my interest for more than ten seconds and the "music"....well, i think it's a case of the emperor's new music.

i can more quickly accept outside music when i think there's at least some possibility that those playing it COULD actually play inside and sound passable. i could be wrong but i have strong doubt those guys could do anything but make noises w their instruments.

Kid's dressed up in costumes messing around with loud guitars making sounds that annoy older people. It still fits that definition of rock music.
10 seconds was plenty for me.

They make the effort to be on the fringe od what would otherwise be deemed conventional. I always have respect for those who can do that... As consumers, many people are critical of the packaging.... But there is a special place of regard, for packaging that strives to be different and attempts to reinvent the wheel of content.

I would say the band here is more about he expression and less about the familiar convention. They are willing to put their dicks on the chopping block. Kudos to them.

I actually like it better than most of the popular rock music trends of the past few decades ... but I'd don't like it nearly enough to sit and listen to it much. The hilariously inevitable extension of the "2 guitars, bass, drums" rock format.

I' would definitely prefer it to Green Day anytime though!

OUCH Green day isn't my bag of tricks either but damn man, you slammed his dick in the door. lol

Well Ithink Green Day lost me when they did that little rant in Vegas. I mean, what were they gonne achieve by that?

I don't like punk. I never did so Green Day and bands like it are stupid to me. I am quite sure someone appreciates them, just not me.

I would title this "Celebrating the Chinese New Year On Acid!" I'm starting to see where you+e coming from. This is stretching the boundaries of art and music to a different dimension. Interesting to me...for about 8 seconds, but if you get into it more power to you.

lol Don't slander ACID.
