Alot of songs take time to grow on me. But from day 1 i thot this song was SCHWEET!!!! This is the song of the year for me!! Amazing rap-rock band w/ a very bright future

I heard this song on the local hard rock station, and half of it was bleeped/hissed out. Great headbanger.

...to the guy who over did it in his hate filled review... yikes. I bet you never even listened to their other songs. It's roughly half and half with HU, some are just for kicks and others have some sort of deeper message they're trying to put out. Which doesn't matter if their songs are played to people with deaf ears anyway.

But seriously, taking Undead literally word-for-word is kind of dumb. It's a headbanger song, that's all. Try something like This Love This Hate or City and maybe Young if you're going to analyze anything so... err, critically.

Hey, what do you get if you cross the shouty bits from Linkin Park songs, the fake posturing macho idiot raps of Limp Bizkit and guys wearing masks just like Slipknot? The worst thing ever? Well, no - but you're close.

Hollywood Undead, then. Coming to every easily manipulated 14 year old "skater" near you. And if this stupid song isn't enough to make you hate them, in all its moronic, homophobic, chest beating, Ozzy Osbourne stealing, nothing to say glory, consider the fact that the people who created it are called, oh dear, "Johnny 3 Tears", "J-Dog", "Da Kurlzz" and "Tha Producer." Honestly, I'm not even making that up. Man, who picked the short straw and ended up being called Da Kurlzz? And Johnny 3 Tears sounds like the name of a guy who gets raped in prison in exchange for cigarettes.

So it's rap. It's rock. It's another bunch of idiots shouting into microphones pretending they're against the system ("cause we don't follow the rules"..."from these industry f**ks") while selling the exact same song to soundtrack the G.I Joe movie. Wow, sticking to your moral guns there, huh guys? That'll teach those suits, putting your music on a billion dollar movie. Maybe they wear those masks to hide their blushes.

Let's get one thing straight; dumb and rock can work well together, if done well. Downright ignorance, on the other hand, and rock music, most certainly do not. The lyrics about telling haters to go slit their wrists and jump off bridges I can handle, but the casual, pointless repetition of the word "fa**ot" not only makes them look like cretins, it just reinforces the idea that homosexuality is wrong to a generation of rock kids that, fifteen years ago, would be listening and absorbing the likes of Rage Against The Machine, a band that didn't talk about having brass knuckles in the trunk of the car or how much it takes to get them drunk, but could, and still would, eat these talentless jokers for breakfast.

You see, rock music SHOULD challenge the system, it should break rules and boundaries and challenge authority. They should command respect and strike fear in the hearts of not only your parents but government figures. Body Count did it. RATM did it. Eminem did it. Marilyn Manson did it.

Hollywood Undead don't deserve respect and they'll never be feared. They've got nothing to say, nothing to add and will only appeal to big-shorted fools. They deserve to get laughed at, pitied and then forgotten.

Make it so.
