4. Amputechture by Mars Volta
![]() With their most recent album, this band version of that smartass kid in school who wouldn’t shut up in class furnishes us with 16-minute epics of squealing bullshit. After a few years of fooling 15-year old stoners with their endless prog jams and lyrics written by randomly picking words from the answers to yesterday’s New York Times crossword puzzle, someone finally caught on to their charade and literally peed on them: |
Amen, Chuck_Steak.
But Dustin Glick, I'm going to have to disagree with you on one thing, and one thing only. While Amputechture is my least favorite Mars Volta album, they are still amazing musicians.
VERY first thing i have to say. Yeah, these were funny, i have a sense of humor, and i can laugh as DragonForce and My Chem are made fun of. But seriously,i love how no consideration is taken to the fact that some of the lyrics and songs on at least two of the albums on here are pretty damn amazing.
I like Dragonforce, though I would admit their lyrics sound like a video game. There's also the fact that all their songs sound roughly the same. MCR sucks, just puttin that out there.
THEy're RIGHT, HOW THE HELL DID QUEEN FUKIN WORK. IT MIND BLOWING HOW SO MANY STRAIGHT GUYS INCLUDING MYSELF ARE FANS OF THIS BAND. HELL IT COULD BEEN WE WILL ROCK YOU OR BRIAN MAY'S KICK ASS GUITAR.
I happen to like My Chemical Romance, but I kind of agree with the article.
Hey, I kinda sorta like DragonForce...
But as this is so hilarious, and people can have opinions, pitching a fit would be retarded. xD
v--Truer words never spoken.MCR are the most whiniest,annoying fuckers i've ever heard.Trying to be queen,Freddie probably turn's in his grave when he hears that whiny little b***h.
My Chemical Romaance is a disgrace to music...I have to vent this:
I have never heard a man whine so hard about some teenage girl for an entire album, every song he says "Im am/not okay" "Im alright" in the chorus, or a variation of that. I do love the emo culture its spawned though, I like clowns and now I get to see them everyday, even at the mall - free of charge its great. I even like the comments, and how they can't say anything besides "f**k you", as if they just discovered the word, and the same goddamn self-shot camera angle with the light turned up on the cam to make them look all the same, and how their lives revolve around MSN, Myspace and going to MCR shows and underground bands nobody has ever heard of for a good reason...
And DragonFARCE...
These are the kind of people who button mash their controller and call it "pro gaming". Those f*****g nerds give a bad name to metal and real bands like Dio and Maiden. Their songs all sound like a f*****g broken guitar is dying its f*****g horrible, and the lead singer is like 32 whos balls havnt dropped and still plays D&D, I can't believe anybody can watch that without being embarrassed for them..f**k DragonForce, and f**k all the people who look like DragonForce.
I love the Mars Volta. I love their drums. I do see how Amputechture can be viewed as silly though. It's my personal least favorite. Deloused in the Comatorium and Frances the Mute are amazing though, especially when you get used to the ambience in Frances.
calling/comparing my chemical romance to "hardcore" is an insult to hardcore.
*like. I didn't mean to go all 4-chan-ish, there.
I likie The Black Parade because I think it's a nice idea for a concept album. (I won't say anything about stealing it from Pink Floyd) I think they pulled it off nicely, even if their hardcore fans scare the s**t out of me.
Oh, and chris_bramley, f**k you.
I don't mind a few MCR songs. Not a lot, just a couple. But to me, Simple Plan is far more whiny then MCR.
Would you say it's enough said if I told you that a preferred name for them is "My Comical Underpants"?
He wants to be Mercury so badly it's actually painful to watch... and the worst thing is the tongue is definitely firmly out of cheek.
I do believe they consider themselves the sex-gods of scremo. What a horrible thought.
Dragonforce's album has amazing music but I agree, the lyrics are pretty sucky.
OMG, i cant believe how many ppl love MCR. I dont mind a few songs but overall i think their whiney bitches that try too hard to copy legends of yesteryear like queen. And ppl who say MCR aren't emo are telling the truth. Its just every one of their followers that are emo, thus making them an emo band.
Not to be a stickler, but it's "do it wobble to da flo?"
I'm surprised the "High School Musical" live album didnt make the list.
I'm not making any judgments I just know where you bought it!!!
