It just sounded like a bunch of incompetent faux-metalheads trying to do make a solid pop song sound like incompetent faux-metal.

Just imo of course.

Incompetent? Dont make me laugh. Their bassist and drummer are more skilled than nearly all the musicians in the mainstream scene.

Illmatic 06-08-2005 03:09 PM

That doesn't make their music any less boring.

Have you actually heard any of their stuff but Smooth Criminal.

Jom 06-08-2005 03:11 PM

I really don't think they're trying to be fake metalheads, to be truthful.

And not many bassists can play a six-string bass as well as he can.

Of course, it doesn't particularly surprise me that Ray would speak out against metal. It's not the first time, anyway :p

Arucard 06-08-2005 03:12 PM

We all know its because hes black. (And his girlfriend sleeps alot.)

Tye Zamora, the bassist for AAF, is actually in the top 100 bassists poll somewhere. Although he DOES have a six-string bass, that doesn't automatically mean he's really good at it.

The fact that he was in a Primus cover band is what makes him good at it. :)

They = not metal. :)

Arucard 06-08-2005 03:20 PM

They are a form of metal, just not the type of metal you like.

What metal genre are they then?

CemetaryGates9 06-08-2005 03:25 PM

Nu metal / New Rock.

Arucard 06-08-2005 03:25 PM

I reckon just plain metal/hard rock. I was only joking with the elitist thing by the way.

munky_magik 06-08-2005 03:25 PM

I would say that they're a form a rock, hard rock most likely.

Arucard 06-08-2005 03:25 PM

[QUOTE=CemetaryGates9]Nu metal / New Rock.[/QUOTE]

They have nothing to do with nu-metal.

CemetaryGates9 06-08-2005 03:27 PM

The definition of nu metal is under dispute. I don't have to label any of it, because I stay away from it, but I'd say it's somewhat like Nu Metal.

superpeer 06-08-2005 03:29 PM

Well if they're Hard Rock, they're not metal. I mean, their single after Smooth Criminal was just plain rock. They are a bit nu metallish though.

These Days, or Wish, or what?

Primus cover band? Do you have any songs I can check out?

Illmatic 06-08-2005 04:10 PM

[QUOTE=88_Fingers_Joe]Have you actually heard any of their stuff but Smooth Criminal.[/QUOTE]

Yes.

Arucard 06-08-2005 04:11 PM

Ok then, your opinion is valid.

Thor 06-08-2005 04:12 PM

Favorite AAF song has to be Wish or Courage. They are both pretty cool songs.

Illmatic 06-08-2005 04:13 PM

Okay, thanks.

By the way, I don't have a problem with metal but I really dislike Alien Ant Farm.

Lord Abortion 06-08-2005 04:17 PM

wow... all the aaf stuff went on a while huh?

Thor 06-08-2005 04:19 PM

I don't think many people would flame you for not liking AAF. :thumb:

Illmatic 06-08-2005 04:20 PM

Well I was bothered by AH saying something along the lines of, "Oh don't mind him he complains about metal"

NP: Neil Young - Cinnamon Girl

Arucard 06-08-2005 04:23 PM

NW (Now Whoring) : My band too Munky.

This is fun.

CemetaryGates9 06-08-2005 04:30 PM

I gave this post a title.

This is what happens when I have nothing better to do.

Kthx.

Thor 06-08-2005 04:31 PM

Most of those books I have read in school over the past few years.
