Editorial Reviews

Iwrestledabearonce (iwabo) makes music that turns heads. Their spastic blending of genres maintains a cohesive sound that draws in listeners from many musical worlds. Love it or hate it - as long as they get a strong reaction to their music, the members of this band will feel that they have done their duty. Their debut full-length 'it's all happening.' was produced by producer-extraordinaire ross robinson (slipknot, the cure, at the drive in) with engineer/producer ryan boesch (eels, foo fighters) at the helm. The new album manages to take their complex sound one step beyond all expectations. You've be warned! For fans of the dillenger escape plan, converge

This band does a lot of stuff at once, so they must be really unique and aspeshul! There's a lot of stuff going on in the album art, so you can tell this is RANDOM and WACKY like my Invader Zim DVDs XD. You could errantly tune through radio stations and get the same effect, but Century Media respects your intelligence enough to know you'd rather buy this instead.

Since there is singing on this Cd, It's All Happening reminds me of Tori Amos, the only difference is that the vocalist in Iwrestledabearone Growls, but parts of this album sounds a lot like Tori Amos, I know this sounds weird, but for me that's what I hear. Iwrestledabearone is good, but not great just yet could be better. I can listen to this album without getting bored with it. I like death core bands that growl, not sing, but Iwrestledabearone does it great. I think Iwrestledabearone has potential to do well.

That's really all there is to say about this band, and the others like them; hipster "metal" for guys in their sister's pants.

I won't go the route of the caveman shouting about RAR TRUE METAL; that's not the point, the point is that this isn't interesting, fresh or new; they're not doing anything that Mr. Bungle or Circle Takes the Square did before them. Possessing some semblance of talent is what separates those 2 bands from this run of the mill garbage.

Remember Limp Bizkit and Crazy Town; same thing; people who don't know a thing about anything will think this is some kind of cuh-razy new genre of music; those of us who've been in the know for some time will just sit there and snicker.
