[Its suicide]
ICP. This is the worst stuff Ive ever heard. I truly mean that. In 99 a got Woodstock on pay per view and recorded it. Right now Im going through some of the videos and ICP is on the stage right now. Ive never heard two white guys that sound so stupid. And its not only their voices although those are pathetic. Its also the lyrics. I would quote some but I dont even want that stuff on my page. This "rap group" is so bad it's almost embarrassing...Listening to this stuff actually makes Limp Bizkit sound good. Lol.

[Someone kill me, I cant take this stuff]
This new wave of music is the worst stuff I've ever heard. I cant listen to the radio anymore at all, this rap/metal junk is everywhere. Im ready for it to die out! Bands like Crazy Town, Limp Bizkit, ICP, and Papa Roach. They're sooooo terrible! Okay Rage Against the Machine was good, but I dont classify them in this genre. I think you cant classify Rage. Or get their sound. The bands that are exploding right now sound so fake. The music is pitiful, mostly samples and drum machines, and the lyrics are so fucking shallow. These bands are worthless and I hate them. Learn to write good songs, popularity isn't always a sign that you have.

[Best album was Portrait of an American Family]
I go way back with Manson. Years before he exploded onto the mainsteam scene I was learning the basslines, searching high and low for the hard to find, "Portrait of an American Family", and always keeping an eye open for a shirt. I loved that my favorite band was so unknown to the rest of the world. It made it feel so much more real, and the whole atmosphere around the band seemed so much creepier which made it a lot of fun. Years went by and Manson became a Saviour to millions of depressed or outcasted teens. But really, that isnt the reason that he's not one of my favorites anymore. I can handle the popularity factor. The reason is the music isnt what it once was. Portrait was a hard rocking album...loud, heavy guitars and nice vocals. Smells Like Children was a good one too. Hey I even own Anti-Christ Superstar...but these latest two albums just didnt hit me the way the other ones did. I still enjoy an old Manson tune every now and again, and its a shame everything had to change. Firing the first drummer and guitarist was probably the worst thing Manson ever did. But let's face it, it hasnt hurt his wallet. He's a genius when it comes to making money. And not as weird as ppl make him seem, a pretty nice guy actually.

[This band shouldnt be playing Ozzfest next to the likes of Pantera, Black Sabbath, etc...]
The first mainstream "metal" girl band. Wow. To be honost they're not that good. I mean, the vocals get terrible when she tries to scream or growl. If I want to hear someone do that I'll throw on a Sepultura or a Slayer album, not Kittie. I dont think they should be given so much attention just because they're girls, they should be judged on their music and music alone.
