a look back at Nickelback's career
last time i was talking about pet peeves with bands. here's my biggest one, Nickelback. what the hell?! so for like the past few months or years everyone's known Chad Kroeger, the lead singer, is leaving for his own solo career. basically, with out Chad there is no Nickelback. but that's not what i'm worried about. these guys have been trying too hard to keep their nonexistent fanbase. they've tried it all; songs about hookers, drinking songs, wannabe sappy love songs, trying to turn metal. the only thing these guys haven't done is make a country song (thank god!!!!) but really. i hate to see them so down that they have to try to be bands they're not. its just plain pathetic. my advice? just give it up! its over and no one likes your music anyway!! eh. like they care. whatever, thats all i got to say bout em.

on another Rob Zombie music video- "living dead girl"
now here's my fav Zombie music video. how can you not love "living dead girl"? it's got a fun beat, creepy lyrics, and she's just kool looking to begin with. it's hard to tell, even after seeing the music video over and over a million times,just what the living dead girl is. is she a zombie? a vampire? something else?(?!!!!) the basic idea for this video is an old style freak curicus theme. you've got the towns ppl shrieking in terror of this girl. Rob in a top hat, cap, cane, and glasses combo. it's shot in blue, green, and yellow filters to give it that old movie feel even more so. there are also breaks in it were the tell us what the ppl are doing or saying or thinking, with addes to the funny, old movie theme of it all. in the end, the living dead girl was not meant to be part of our world. too bad. i would have loved to be friends with her.

the super bowl half time show with the Black Eyed Peas
now most everyone in America spent Sunday watching the Super Bowl. its like the most American thing to do. (not) anyway, as every year there was a musical act during haft time. it's always a popular pop band that does a montage of all their best and newest songs. this year was the Black Eyes Peas turn. of course with the help of Slash (from Guns N' Roses, for those who don't know). well i hope you didn't make a bet on this being any good. save your money for betting on the game and other shit. this was not the best performance by the Black Eyed Peas. it started strong with their latest song, "Boom, boom, pop" then in to some more of the classic Black Eyed Peas. then Fergie come out alone with Slash. their song of choice, Guns N' Roses "Sweet Child O' Mine". this song takes a special kind of person to maintain the vocals properly. the notes are not the easiest to reach. now, i don't hate Fergie, i have a couple of her solo songs and some from with the Black Eyed Peas. but she is not made for singing such songs as "Sweet Child O' Mine". they should have chosen a different song that matched Fergie's singing style far better. though this was not the worst. after "Sweet Child O' Mine", the rest of the Black Eyed Peas came back on stage for another one of there newest songs, "Time of my life". a revamped version of the song from the cult classic movie, Dirty Dancing. in my opinion, there are just some songs that one doesn't NOT change no matter what. i dont care how much better you think it will be. some songs don't get better than they already are. i love you, Fergie, but never sing "Sweet Child O' Mine" every again. and to Slash, man what the hell were you thinking!? she's hot, yes, but she can't sing the song right. damn!

A reveiw of Breathe Carolina's Hello Fascination
starting out on the scene of a cute blond walking into what looks to be a warehouse, we're sent on a trip of color and amazing vocals. the beat is up and fun as with most any Breathe Carolina song. its the kind of song you can see little emo kids dancing to at a club, but others can easily get into as well. i love listening and watching Kyle Even (the tall lit.brown haired guy)sing. he's just one of those people who's voice just doesn't seem right from them. he doesn't look like the type to be doing the screaming in their songs, but he does it so well and its just so much fun to watch him. David Schmitt (the shorter dark brown haired) is our sweet and soft vocals. i love his voice. its calming and beautiful. the combination of both Kyle and David is prefect and amazing. while the music video doesn't really seem to have much going on with the song, i mean rainbows are nice, but what about something like the scissors she cuts you with. all in all, a very nicely done video and totally fun to watch. keep your eyes on Kyle, its a blast.

Eminem and Marilyn Manson- "The way I am"
i love bout Manson and Eminem, so the minuet i learned that they did a song together i was all over it. i hit up youtube and google looking for it. and now i've seen the official music, the interview, and both live shows far too many times to count. "The way i am" is a great and powerful song that came out at just the right time for both men. Eminem has been hasled over he's racy lyrics and for "acting black". while Manson was getting killed about Columbine, because everyone thought he made the kids do it. the song is almost a plea for everyone to fuck off their cases. i love the way the music video shows how no one knows how to leave Em be. people rush up to him when he's out to eat with his wife and kid. they stand outside the bathroom stales waiting for pictures and autographs. its funny, but at the same time you can see why he's getting so pissed off at them. would you really want people stalking you very minuet of your life? but my favorite part is when Em is standing in this dark, one windowed room and slowly, out of the dark comes Manson wearing nothing but black leather pants and paint. i'd be a little freaked if Manson just appeared like that behind me. though this scene has nothing on Manson's "dancing" on stage with Em. in the first live video i saw, Manson had on a tee, dress pants, and his trademark, does-anyone-really-need-to-be-this-tall-? combat boots. once more, he came out of the dark behind Em. while Em went on rapping, Manson thought he'd play "follow the leader". he tagged behind Em all over the stage and stuck one arm out in front and bounced up and down. then when Em put a foot up on the speaker and leaned in close to the crowd, Manson did so too, only looking completely silly. for the live show from Germany, Manson, once again, didn't have a shirt on. this time Manson entered the stag from a castle tower in the background. in this one i could clearly hear Manson singing. Em also stopped and few times on the lyrics to let Manson be heard better. no matter which version of the video you see, its bound to be great. Manson will look like a silly little white boy and Eminem will looked pissed as always. as for the song it's self. its a great song with well chosen lyrics and a perfect beat. out of all the lines, my favorite is "i'll smile in the courtroom and buy you a wardrobe." another well worded line from Em about how people find any reason to sue musicians like him and Manson. now you all better go check it out now. and buy the song.
