Hollywood Undead - The Worst Music Ever?

Is Hollywood Undead the worst music ever? After listening to the songs on their MySpace page this seems like a completely reasonable question. Their sound is like all the worst aspects of every awful music trend from the last 20 years.

It’s like Limp Bizkit mixed with Eminem and the Backstreet Boys. It’s hard to imagine that this music isn’t some sort of elaborate joke. If it is, then I guess they got me. The sad thing is they also got thousands of other people who apparently actually think this is good music. Sure most of them are about 14 years old but it’s still sad that this crap is getting many thousands of plays every day on MySpace while many much more deserving artists are largely ignored.

I haven’t even mentioned the pictures yet. The whole mask thing makes me think it’s all a joke. They don’t want people to know who they really are. Right? Plus it’s another crap music allusion to add to the list (Slipknot.)

I will give Hollywood Undead this much. They are more interesting than most MySpace artists. They are so incredibly bad yet appeal to so many. It’s interesting to think about for me. Are kids just this clueless when it comes to music these days that this garbage passes for not only decent but great?

They are currently the second most popular unsigned artist on MySpace. I suppose it’s not surprising that they are surrounded by two “artists” almost as crap as they are: Tila Tequila and Five Times August. I’ll have to get to them next time.

So which Hollywood Undead song is worst? I can’t say I listened to all of them. The joke does start to wear thin after awhile. But I must say that “Circles” is particularly amusing. This is the Hollywood Undead ballad. It’s just as tasteless and stupid as the rest of their music but with the added bonus of a staggering amount of cheese.

  1. I usually try my hardest not to knock bands, no matter how bad they are, because being in a band is a hard, heartbreaking, frustrating road to travel down. Putting your heart and soul into something so fully is opening yourself up in a very vulnerable way that many people would never do.
    That being said, there seems to be neither heart nor soul in the music here, but maybe some hidden brains. They seem to be brilliantly exploiting the economics of pop music; teenagers contribute the most money to the pop music market so give them what they want. And apparently what they want is Insane Clown Posse (who have an endless amount of imitators) mixed with emo (who’s bands have become completely interchangeable) and Eminem (from whom they have no problem lifting from directly). But these guys don’t even have the ability to meld these sounds into one amalgamation. If they did they would probably sound more like Linkin Park. Instead you get one song that sounds like ICP, one that sounds like emo, one that sounds like Eminem, and then one that sounds like Linkin Park (okay, they all start to sound like Linkin Park in the end).
    But teenagers are notorious for having bad taste. And teenage boys are notorious for liking music that is violent, misogynistic and homophobic. But what’s disturbing is the sheer number of girls that are buying into this. And posting comments about how hot these guys are. They’re wearing masks! Good looking dudes don’t wear masks or full face makeup (with the possible exception of Paul Stanley). And hey, little girl, that song you like so much. It’s about date raping you! Here, take this L7 record. They’re better and funnier than this band and could easily kick the crap out of them.

  7. The fact that you say that they “imitate” so many othe bands shows there versatility. You don’t like there music because you don’t understand it because your old and don’t know how laugh or whatever other reason, go listen to the beattles and shut the hell up. Circles is a good song that actually mean somthing to people who know jack about music and people who have felt that way, same with a knife called lust, my black dahlia and so on and so on. I will give you this if you cant take there other songs such as christmas time in hollywood and laugh then you wont like them because that humor is to mature in nature for you. Its a goofy song ment to make you laugh and if you don’t then thats your problem let everyone else enjoy it. You are possible the worst critic I have ever seen they should give me your job. You didn’t even notice shit about there music except the fact that you didn’t get and it offend you all lyric stuff. So i dub you the worst critic on the internet.

  9. i think to like hollywood undead’s music , you need to have a certain taste in that kind of music. And if they have that many people who like them, then i say they’re pretty good.. i like them myself… and if you don’t that’s your opinion. If they’re really as bad as you say, no one would be listening to them at all.

    A few hundred thousand people stupid? Is that all? There’s a helluva a lot more stupid people than that in America, I’m afraid. Fans of Hollywood Undead are just one subset of American stupidity.

    You’ve got the folks that get their news from Dancing With The Stars… You got the kids who think Hollywood Undead is anything other than a joke at their expense… Yes that’s right. I believe that these HU guys purposely set out to make the worst music possible and the joke is that people actually like it. It’s proof of nothing but that people’s tastes are just that bad.

  21. i dont no how you guys can even put in about younger people only liking this “music” granted im not the biggest fan and i dont even belive i have them added to my friends list on myspace, but if what your saying that actually makes elvis crap 2, when he first started out only younger people liked his music, my father still tells us how his dad banned elvis’s music in his house.

    my point is just because something sounds diffrent, dosent mean its crap,

    and yes some of your points where valid, but there isnt actually any band or song that you listen to now adays that you cant find a relation ship to a couple of groups.

    overall i think that music should have a rating on it, like movies, not just for swear words etc, but because of the lyrics. hope to hear some actually criticism back on this and not just garbage

  22. I am a college student with an A average and i consider myself neither idiotic, nor ignorant, nor one who lacks taste, but one thing i know is that i love Hollywood Undead. It is a relief to hear a band that explores so many facets of music. I am tired of stereotypical bands that are afraid to experiment and step outside of the box. These songs reflect life, no matter how different it is from yours. Check out the bands history, then see if you have something to say. And besides how many of those who are so quick to judge have exploded onto the scene?

  23. Just because you don’t like them doesn’t mean you have to completely trash them. They are more successful than you so you could just be crazy jealous. If you don’t like them then don’t talk crap, just don’t play tir music. I personally like their music becasue of the variety of genres they provide. I don’t like very much rap. I am a rock type person, but you don’t see me trashing all of the rap groups. Too bad if they are popular. Deal with it. They ARE people, who heppen to have this as their lives work. We don’t post crap about your job and how you do it on the internet. So you don’t have to do it about theirs. I think you are a jerk who doesn’t think about other people. Ego-centric brat much? I believe so. Thank you.

  26. you guys keep raving about how they’re this shitpot blend of different musical trends but really thats just because they’re so versatile , they can roll out tracks that anyone can find something they like about,if you like songs with meanings, and a softer beat you could listen to circles or the loss….but on the polar opposite theres the hardcore, vulgar ,and perverse that every teen likes to indulge in every now and then. You’re a pretty pitiful critic really, you just shit toss these guys when their music is not intended for you to like at all. I think these guys knew anyone over 30yrs old would hate them before they even started writing their music. And all you fans on here saying stuff like” OH MY GOD FUCK YEEEAH HOLLYWOOD UNDEAD RULLLZZZ” don’t help at all, you just make all of us fans look like the dipshits.

Ok so your not into it don’t you have something better to do?

  34. are you fucking kidding me?? hollywood undead is deep and if you actually listen to the actual fucking lyrics they talk about things much deeper than money and shit. what you need to do is ACTUALLY listen to “Circles”, “A Knife Called Lust”, and “My Black Dahlia” they mean something. Half of things they say in those things talks about broken families, heart break and changing into something because soemones trying to change you. Sure some of there stuff is pointless but its also meant to make you laugh. Obviously you don’t have a fucking sence of humor. What you need to do is get a life and get some friends. Hollywood Undead kicks ass and if you hate them so much then don’t listen to them you fucking hater!!!!!

  37. C’mon Marvin Marks, let the kids have their fun. I understand you believe HU’s music is shit, but you don’t have to post such conceited [and borderline douche bag] remarks. YOU might be an excellent example of why kids often rebel against adults [if you are one]. As crazy as this next statement of mine may sound, I’ll say it anyway…The arts [music in this case] don’t aways have to be artistic. My younger brother loves this ‘band [I use that term loosely] and I thought they were a joke at first too. However, upon further inspection, I found some of their songs to be very catchy. It’s amazing what an open mind can do…anyway kudos to your review of ‘In Rainbows’. Please stop being a pretentious bastard :)

If everyone liked the same music then there really wouldn’t different Genres. you say that teenagers have bad taste in music. What kind of shit is that? No one can have bad taste in music. Everyone just likes something differently. Your just so pissed at your life because you have to live with your mom and she’s probably the only thing that you will get to even kiss you. Don’t try to make up for your shitty ass life by trying to make others want to kill you for being such a douche. You pissed me off for a few reasons when i read that: You insulted people,people’s like of different music,people’s differencies,Slipknot,HU, and pretty much for insulting one type of music it’s like you took a shit wiped ur ass with ur hand and just bitch slapped music across the face. The whole point of MUSIC is a form of expression. Not everyone wants to express themself in the way YOU want to. God mad us all different for a reason. so ur pretty much bitch slapping god too. Nice going now your gonna get made Satan’s little bitch. If you knew ANYTHING at all about the true reason of music you wouldnt talk crap about other bands now would you?

  40. What to say…

    To state that HollywoodUndead is musical genius would be far too ignorant for me to ever mutter, however, I can state that their music is new and in my opinion, sarcastically refreshing. Yes their sound is a mix of genres, and in many cases they come off like they had a recent bout of MPD but anybody who thinks HollywoodUndead aims to be taken as anything BUT funny is delusional. In a world where majority of the top songs are about sex, depression, or a mixture of the two, I for one am glad to see somebody take a different approach, i.e. the funny one. No they are not Simon & Garfunkel, CCR would not be proud, and hell even Eminem would probably want to strangle them (though… not that that’d be different from his normal routine) but in the end I think they aim to take Comedy + Music and, in my opinion, they do it well. I think what people fail to realize is that HollywoodUndead is here for fun, to take the Punk Ska Hardcore fan base, and to infuse their own Weird Al style. Perhaps it isn’t musical art but if anything it is creative, and for that alone nobody really has the right to make any statement about them beyond, “Not my style”. Call it music, call it comedy, I call it both, but I call it both as a fan of HollywoodUndead. Nobody will ever agree where music or comedy is concerned, all that really ever matters is whether there is a group of people who enjoy it, and the number show that Hollywood Undead has those numbers.

    And well call me a bad fan for thinking My Black Dahlia is humorous, but I do think I will somehow move on. Just think about it.

  45. Well, yes, I do like Hollywood Undead alot. But I am not here to defend them, per say, but pose an honest and simple question. Before I get to it, let me sate a few things that came to mind while I read your review and your arguments to the…fans.

    There are thousands upon thousands of other bands, hundreds of different styles, hundreds of different messages, and many different moods - all for millions, MILLIONS, of different people.

    Is one band really than another? Who decides? Popular consensus? My word to yours? Record sales? On paper, sure the record sales prove something, along with popular vote. But popular vote only matters to those who voted for…what comes of the opposition?

    The question I wanted to ask was “what gives you the right to bash my music?”

    I will say, I appreciate you taking the time to check them out at least. So what, you didn’t like them, you’re free to do that, and I am free to like them. There are many bands I would like that you wouldn’t, and just the same for you for me. Writing a review against a band or movie is, in my opinion, very tricky. In the end, it just boils down to who chooses what for expression. Some bands are in it for the money, some are in it for fun, some are in it just to vent. It’s an art form. Some forms are just not for everybody.

    I know what I say is repetitive, and I am sorry for that. I hoped I made some valid points, and feel free to respond to anything I have said.

    Cheers,

    Hollywood Undead is like any other band and singer so why hate on them only?
    and if they want to use mask is there thing so they people know who they are I think that your just hateing. and plus the other deserving artists don’t care so why do you?
    I think Hollywood Undead is not geting all the love they deserve cus unlike other guy or teens out there are doing badthing to them self they decided to do something with there lives SO MUCH LOVE TO HOLLYWOOD UNDEAD!!! ^_~

  51. music is subjective. if you dont know this then you shouldnt be writing about music. To call a certain kind of music bad is to show your own ignorance. i obviously think hollywood undead kicks ass, however i do dislike some of their songs. that doesnt mean they are bad. that just means some of their songs do not appeal to me. Some other music that i really enjoy includes artists such as Salieri, Handel, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Easy Star All Stars, Mozart, Flipsyde, The Doors, and a bunch of others. But i obviously have horrible taste in music do i not?

    also, if you are going to call a group/band bad, then i suggest you listen to all of their songs. then maybe people will actually ponder your point of view.

    Also the whole mask thing is so that people will focus on their music..not their faces..which to be honest not many so called amazing bands or artists do anymore.

    its fair enough if you don’t like them but its slightly unfair to attack people who do..not everyone who listens to this band is 14 or stupid.

Hollywood Undead rose up from nothing, just like everyone else and they have a right to be heard. You can’t tell people what to listen to because they will do what they want anyways. This is America and there is freedom of speech, but come down on them that hard is just plain rude. I think their masks are unique and they are known for this.

    -Care about celebrities’ personal lives and their kids (don’t worry the kids will be F’d up too)
    -Flip people off while driving (they might follow you home and beat your ass)
    -Write overly negative music reviews (especially on unkown independent bands)

    Seriously, settle down.

Okay, well I can honestly say Im not a huge fan of Hollywood Undead, but they do have catchy songs and many kids can relate to some of the stupid shit they say, but I mean as long as the kids can relate to it that’s all that really matters. Their is so many bands that do suck and that shouldn’t be making music. Or artists, for example hilary duff, and all those dumbasses that should just stick to acting.
    You kids should stop being so fucking absurd. Stop typing like your so fucking hardcore with the RULEZ and HARD UH CORE that just shows how stupid you really are.
    This is a website that criticizes bands, all types of bands and it just depends on the person. If someone doesn’t like a band that you like your fucking stupid for trying to defend the band you like so much. It’s someone’s opinion and you can’t change that.
    Saying that some people dont have the right to criticize other bands, is very hypocritical.
    I bet all of you criticize alot of bands or artists. So before you go bitching about someone’s opinion think about what your going to type and make sure it’s the fucking truth you fucking retards.

  62. First Off.
    Teenagers now adays. Listen to the things that appeal to them the most. H U’s music is something that most teenagers can relate to. Many of us “youngens”can relate to the storys that come from there music. and just because they wear masks and have “emo” tendencies doesnt mean jackk shit.
    If you hate them then why are you still talking about them??If you dont like there music then why are you listening to them??
    They do not sound anything like ICP and i would know because i am an avid ICP listener. and As for Eminem and LInkin Park they will never even be close to sounding like them. MY life is music my love is music and I criticize every new music that comes out. Teens dont listen to the beats the sounds. they listen to the words. They can relate to this music just as teens can relate to someone such as rhianna ??

    And as for the whole this is shit remarks. Their music is not shit it actually has alot of thought and alot of real meaning to it. At least i can say that much for them then i could for lets say 50 cent or hmmm…. freeze pop and maybe half the other shit that is out there.
    There is a million bajillion other bands out there that could have shit talked on them but you chose HU whyy?? well maybe that has to be because you dont know jack shit about them…

    or maybe you actually like them and are just ashamed to admit it??????

  63. i think hollywood undead is a good band,their not my favorite but honestly not everyone likes the same kinda music so why dont some ppl stop criticizing eachother over music that they like. everyone likes different music.
    and just bc we like hollywood undead doesnt mean we have bad taste in music. ohkay. thank you bye.

  64. “Limp Bizkit mixed with Eminem” - Seriously, do you actually pay attention to the music industry. Eminem worked with Limp Bizkit on a track called “Our House” which featured a cover of the chorus from the 80’s sensational POP hit Our House by Madness (BSB is pop, madhouse were pop).

    Would you look at that, Hip-Hop, Rock and Pop has been done before, and it worked? IT WORKED! different music isn’t bad music.

    anyway, HU are bad because they MAY be 14, your not into the music or you think its tasteless and cheesy and you don’t like masks.

    Are you fucking kidding me?
    Thats your “review”?
    Do you regularly smoke crack or are you naturally retarded?

    Leslie, your not a critic, your just someone using web space to voice your bias opinion and furthermore - You dislike a band, SO FUCKING WHAT! Go listen to some country music and leave the kids alone.

  65. I’m probably old enough to be your mother so definately not 14 years old. I came across your little rant searching for more information on Hollywood Undead, after accidentally coming across one song which I enjoyed. Best new stuff I’ve heard lately, incorporating so many sounds into one song, each different in its own unique way. How you can slam someone
    just because it holds no appeal to you, is worse then what you have to say about this upcoming group of musicians. As an aside…You have very good writing skills, perhaps you could use them in a more positive manner.

  73. AJ said: The question I wanted to ask was “what gives you the right to bash my music?”

    The first amendment of the constitution. It’s not surprising you don’t know about that, as I wouldn’t expect a Hollywood Undead listener to be well versed in history (or anything else of any value.)

    AJ said: It’s an art form. Some forms are just not for everybody.

    No. It’s not an art form. What Hollywood Undead does is not art. It’s one of the most ridiculous things when people refer to people like Britney Spears & Hollywood Undead as “artists.” These people are not artists. They are, if anything, anti-artists. They make music that makes you dumber when you listen to it. Real artistic musicians/songwriters make make music that makes you actually think. It’s enlightening in some way or another. And there’s many forms of music I would classify in this way - I’m not referring simply to lyrics or to musical sophistication. But a sense of wonder and excitement. ;) Regardless, It’s disturbing to me for anyone to refer to anything that Hollywood Undead does as “art.” It is surely not art. It is shit. It’s been formulated to appeal to braindead teenagers either purposely or just because they are that stupid themselves (that part I’m unsure about.)

  77. This has been a VERY enjoyable thread! Now that I’ve said that - I’m throwing in a quick comment or two just to be a dick -

    1. I actually kind of like HU. Not because I think they are lyrical geniuses, mozart-lings, or “hot” for that matter but just because it’s entertaining. I’m of the age group that actually paid money to see Gwar. Yes Gwar. Every age group has had one. Kiss/Gwar/ now HU. LOL. My favorite lyric is, “Because Emo is one step below transvestite”. Totally hilarious.

    2. Intellect isn’t earned, it’s born. I believe it’s nature, not nurture, that makes someone intelligent. And intellect comes in MANY MANY forms. A college degree is like a great set of abs - if you have enough money for a trainer or a good healthy dedication you too, can be stacked like Matthew McConaughey. That being said, if good ole boy Matt sounded like Larry the Cable Guy there would still be women lustin’ after ‘im regardless.

    3. (and here comes the dickhead part) Now that we’ve established I dont’ hate HU, and think the intellect cannot be “acquired” - I would like to pretend for a moment that I’m shocked and amazed at the rampant baaaaaaad spelling. Did Engish teachers forget to inform students of the difference in their, there, and they’re? Oh, and the best one? You’re and Your.

    4. So having sAiD aLl oF ThAt I Jus WaNnA tAke A mIn aND tElL You Your sToopid and I hAte youre face! aLL oF tHe FaNs MuSt bE riGhT bEcUz tHere RiTe and YoUr wRoNg. ThEre (the band) gOnNa bE pizzzed @ U and hak uR sHiT and PoSt iT on there website over they’re.

  78. “The first amendment of the constitution. It’s not surprising you don’t know about that, as I wouldn’t expect a Hollywood Undead listener to be well versed in history (or anything else of any value.)”

    Yes, I wasn’t really thinking along the lines of constitutional rights when I typed that, I was thinking more along the lines of in ‘comparison to what’, if you understand what I mean there. How can you judge my music, is it worse than your music and your taste? To you sure, but to me, I may not agree with your music choices either, but that would be in relation to what I listen to. Then someone could come in to the argument and say we both have shitty tastes, and it would be compared to what they listen to.

    “No. It’s not an art form”

    Sure it is, It’s expression. It may not quench the thirst of your sophisticated ear, but it still satisfies others. Much like many people who adore a Picasso or Da Vinci’s paintings are not fond of simplistic drawings or painting (even writings). In the long run though, I don’t think arguing the semantics of “art” will help nor prove anything.

  80. Hollywood Undead is one of the best bands ever. They are the only band that can mix rap and screemo and make it sound decent. Just because you dont like their music doesnt meen its not good, I dont like Elvis but he is still good. Would you be able to do anything that they do? The masks are a way of protection, so they dont have to deal with all the crap celebs have to go through, so they can go to the store without being mobed, stuff like that. They are new too, just a bunch of guys that got together to make some music, it doesnt have to be perfect, they are just trying to make a point.

  88. Ok, first people need to stop talking in IM.
    Second, I am quite fond of Hollywood Undead.

    I understand that this is a critic site, and I know the first ammendment,
    but really, if you honestly hate HU so much, then think it and get over it..
    There’s no reason to type out some long uncited review. It’s a waste of
    your time and ours. It takes a lot out of people to be in a band, but they
    have done better than most, to be second most popular unsigned band
    on myspace takes hardwork and dedication to the project. If you had a
    band and you worked really hard to get where you are and someone like
    this comes along and writes a bunch of shit on your band how would you
    feel? Also, wouldn’t you feel great if your fans went to bash on the critic?
    I’m sure you would, it makes you feel needed, wanted, loved. HU are in
    the music scene, not for money, not for sex, but because they love making
    music for people who love their music… That’s why they write songs in so
    many diffrent genres, to give their fans something diffrent to listen to.
    Also, some of the fans may be “stupid” but what band doesn’t have a few
    fans that don’t have their head on straight?

    To fellow fans: Throw the HU up, and just leave them alone.
    They’ll get theirs in the end. Love you guys. <3

You would think that a website for music would at least make sure the people who write articles for them would at least show the opinion of most people who know this band. Not just her own opinion. Also what ever happend to hiring people who aren’t biased when it comes to writing articles. Just because she dislikes this music, dosnt automaticly mean that they are “the worst music ever”. There is a reason that they were second most popular unsinged artist on myspace, TONS of people like them!!!! I’ve never even heard this band before but its pretty obviouse that whoever wrote this article simply enjoys critisizing people and tryin to sound smart like she knows everything about everything.

It’s not for everyone, I’ll give you that. Maybe some people don’t like something because it’s not what they are used to listening to, but you shouldn’t say that people have no musical tastes at all just because you don’t enjoy it.

    I don’t think anyone should set up these boundaries that they only like one type of music. And I certainly don’t think you should tell everyone that a band is the worse band ever. It makes you sound ridiculous.

    Oh, and, by a popular vote, I believe ICP was voted the worst band ever.

I wouldn’t be surprised if this was a side-project joke someone put together in a studio while recording their actual CD and said “hey let’s form a fake band…”

  123. This isn’t intolerance. He’s saying something sucks. He’s not petitioning the government to outlaw the band. He isn’t hacking into their myspace page. Hell, he isn’t even posting on the stupid band’s myspace page. No, he’s posting on his blog, giving his opinion. You’re the one who probably heard about this from one of your stupid little friends and decided to come here and shoot your mouth off.

  126. Okay.
    Hollywood Undead is by far one of my most favorite bands. They have an amazing talent. I’m sure they do far better than you ever could. They sing about what they feel. Why the hell would you say crap about how somebody feels or about the stuff that they like? Try putting yourself in their position before you start talking shit. Try listening to their song Dead in Ditches. Maybe thats what they should do to you. And yes, a lot of us that like them are younger. We obviously have better taste. Maybe you should re consider what you’ve said about them. Hollywood Undead has a lot of talent. People like different things. I absolutely HATE any type of country music but you dont see me writing stupid little articles about how much i think it sucks. Have you ever thought about why they wear masks? Maybe it’s because they don’t want to be walking down the street and have tons of people taking pictures or running up trying to get an interveiw. They do show their faces in some music viseos anyway.

    FUCK OFF

  127. why would you say fucking that, it just sounds like you’re trying to start a fight with every body that like hollywood undead. and beleave me you will lose. And by the way i’m 16 and i like them so don’t stario-type the music to a certain age. and the song circles is a realy good song. and since you are a person that likes different music than us, stop saying crap about them like that. you don’t want to fucking piss that many people off. if you don’t like them then don’t even write on this site about them. and the masks are awssome. and if you want to go and get me started on you slaming on slipknot go ahead. i’m a major music lover so i’m not afraid to have a frien hack in to your computer and fuck that shit up. don’t piss me off agian.

  130. Okay. i’m going to admit that i didnt read the whole artical when i posted my first comment. cuz i couldnt bare the stupidity in the writing. the first sentence made me want to puke all over leslie’s face. but, ive pained my way through all of it and now, ive got more to say.

    FIRST: that shit head Marvin Marks. the one who cant stop commenting, over and over and over? yeah. GET A FUCKING LIFE!!!! i mean really are you that obsessed with this that you cant even stand to let people have their own damn opinion?! i think theres one of two things going down with him. hes either fucking leslie and in his stupid devotion to this cunt has to keep writting or she will cut off his sex. OR, hes just obsessed with her and wants to fuck her (just like the HU songs!!!) cuz hes too damn lonley living in his mothers basment at the ripe young age of 34 (i’m guessing). Cuz no young man who has a life and a job (that pays more than minimum wage) and a girl friend spends all his free time picking on and insulting kids and young adults because of a band. oh thats not even all ive got to say about you Marvin, so please insult and comment me cuz im dying to insult you some more. =]

    P.S.
    your insults arent clever but more like an 11 year old girl trying to sound all-grown-up.

    SECOND: Leslie, i completly respect the first amendment and your right to say whatever the fuck you please, but what the hell? i would love to see you create a band, write great and popular music, and become one of the most well known bands in the US and still be able to get your message across w/o being a total bitch about it. you have every right to critisize a band or music. but not insult not only them but their fans too. and just cuz you dont like the music doesnt mean youve got the right to bash the hell out of them. youve got no right at all to call anyone stupid or a moron cuz you know what? TAKES ONE TO KNOW ONE BITCH!! and if they suck so bad leslie, then why in the fuck are people listening to them?? huh?! do you know!?!? I DO!! its cuz they dont suck and are great at what they do!! the song “Knife Called Lust” is all about how its okay to hurt inside and you can talk to people and youre not alone cuz alot of people feel like that. so when you grow up in a fucked up home and you do fucked up shit and cant express yourself in any other way than the self destructive ones, its good to know youre not in it alone. so, go and take your insensitive, judgemental, and ignorant thoughts and feelings and shove them up your ass. cuz no one wants to hear what youve got to say, except other morons. See ya!!! bitch!

    THIRD: HOLLYWOOD UNDEAD ROCKS SO FUCKING HARD IT CAUSES EARTHQUAKES!!!! FUCK ANYONE WHO SAYS DIFFERENT!! LOVE IT! LIKE IT!! LIVE IT!!! BITCHES!!!!

  133. So Marvin Marks, who gives you the right to bash others CHOICE in music? It may not be your chioce, but thats what separates you from them and vice versa. No matter how you look at it, they are artists. I agree with you that Brittney and Tila are NOT musically inclined at all, but HU is using them for the networking. THat is what MYSPACE is for. NETWORKINGAnd as far as calling the teenage generation stupid and idiotic, that was a bad move. So fatr this year, we have had more teens involved in politics than ever before, more are becoming an active part of their community and the fact is, they have the RIGHT to make their own decisions. I think that is also hidden somewhere in the Constitution. But your problem is, if they can’t see it your way, then you hate them. And quit with the smartass remarks, they dont do anyone any good. Just because the HU fans may make some, you should strive to be better. Oh and learn how to not talk in “circles”

  137. People love this group because they use beats and rhythms that infectious and get easily stuck in your head. So many people say that HU is “innovative” and “versatile” that it makes me want to puke. Their music is incredibly unoriginal and predictable. There is a difference between claiming other artists as influences and blatantly copying their styles. They have as much variation in their rapping from song to song as Lil’ Jon.
    I fear for the future when so many people love a group that is completely devoid of any kind of human emotion musically or lyrically. I’m not saying that they fail if they’re not as deep as Miles Davis or Elliot Smith but there’s a difference between party songs/club beats and making almost EVERY song you record a “let’s get shit-faced and fuck” track.
    I agree with Leslie that Hollywood Undead must be joking. Unfortunately, whether they are serious about their music or not, they are laughing all the way to the bank. Score one for the artists who appeal to people with no taste in music.

    Also, for those of you posting about how awesome you think Hollywood Undead is, PLEASE use some kind of argument other than “Fuck you! HU is an awesomely awesome band!” You’re making yourselves look like idiot douchebags who can’t think your way out of that Steel Reserve 40oz next to your laptop.

    And people can like what music they like, not to mention Hollywood Undead can make what music they want without people judging what they like?
    I actually think you making this was a waste of time because people think what they want, they don’t want to know your opinion.

  139. Fuck you Hollywood undead is an amazing band just because they arent some shitty country band or soft rock little chick you think they are bad? when they sing about truth and what happens in their life? ha you think you know music. you call them emo? call them some short ofmixture of music? tell me what kind of genre they are? its a new type of music. they have a partying song everyone can enjoy no screaming example No.5 and then Turn off the lights. just because they sing about truth and what means in the world instead of some stupid rap shit or having sex with your redneck sister in country you can’t judge what you dont understand. I’m a straight A student getting my business degree in highschool going into marketing right afterwards and i enjoy this music i know plenty of adults who enjoy this music because they know the true meaning behind it not just what you so call screaming and “”date rap”" so get your shit right and know what you are talking about instead of jamming to some brittney spears shit. End of story. DONE.

  140. They’ve signed with A&M/Universal Records and will be launching a full scale tour this year, after their record is released. The record was produced by Danny Lohner (Nine Inch Nails) & Don Gilmore (Linkin Park).

    Album will be out on A&M/Universal/Octone Records (The Hives, Maroon 5).It will be their first.

    Apparently, they must be doing something right.

  142. what kind of fucking critic is this? i totally agree with many of the people that think that this douchebag of a “writer” is bagging on Hollywood Undead.

    if you think they suck, if you think their music is shit, if you think they wont blow up…

    how come they signed to a label? how come they are one of the biggest bands on myspace? how is it that they were invited to play at the VirginMobile concert? how come they have so many devoted, willing fans to stick by their sides, while some idiotic writer insults their (obviously) popular type of music?

    this is a fucking discrace to music. not only to Hollywood Undead, but to many other GOOD bands and artists out there that this critic has prolly wasted her time writing about.

    i guess i am one of those “stupid, young teenagers who doesnt know whats right from wrong.”
    even thou i am not, what if was? music is music. a band has the right to go out and make WHATEVER type of music they feel like making.
    and aslo critics have the right to go out and say whatever they feel like about that band.
    but just because you think their music is crap doesnt mean you bad them so harshly.

    i personally wouldnt be surprised when Hollywood Undead blows up big time. i’ve been a fan since the beginning, and i support what they are doing not only as a band but as what a huge evolution they created with their creativity of music.

    HU, keep doing your things.
    Fans of HU, keep supporting the band.
    Haters of HU, your missing out on alot of talent.
    This critic who wrote the article?

    Keep your day job.

    so whats your bad point? bashing on a type of music that you can care less about?
    wow. im sure your really smart and intelligent.
    maybe i should go to college and become just like you.
    going online and throwing worthless comments about a band who (obviously) is doing something right with their music.

    and speaking of music, please tell us.

    what music do you prefer?

    since hollywood undead is “shit” as you have said, enlighten us all with “somewhat good music”

  150. You know what is so funny? These kids get all upset and offended by someone judging their [shitty] music and then proceed to take it out on the reviewer. They say things like “don’t judge our music” or “don’t bash them. it’s how they make their living” but then they get rude and sometimes down right vicious with Marvin and Leslie or anyone else that gives their opinion — right after telling others not to bash or judge someone! how completely fucking hypocritical! Just goes to show the level of intelligence the fans of this utter shit are working with. Seriously, HU is garbage. To their fans, the joke’s on you. They pile a bunch of genres together because they are too unoriginal to create their own sound and throw in some ridiculous “rhymes” and call it music while all these foolish kids eat it up and dish out their allowance to purchase it. Their “music” is just a lack of effort and/or any creative genius. It’s simply disgusting and, to be honest, offensive to the rest of us actual artists out there struggling to make it with true, god-given (not protools-given) talent. Fuck these goons. Kids, if you HAVE to like it, at least download it from limewire or something, and spend your money on something worth it, because this shit sure as hell isn’t.

  152. Most Hollywood Undead fans are idiots as this post shows. I personally like them, and I do think that they are a joke. The music is obviously meant to just be funny and for people to have a good time listening to it. It’s comedy, plain and simple. Besides, people try to read way too into stuff. Anyone ever heard death metal? People take it very seriously not realizing the intent of sarcasm and shock value.

    So go ahead and post your snide little death threat replies and show us all how big and strong you really are. Don’t bother with a dictionary or spell check because all the rest of the retards will know exactly what you mean. This band’s fan base is a true reflection of the music, you deserve each other.

  155. Marvin, it’s amazing how you sit there, and continue to bash on Hollywood undead,and sure i’m just a Fifteen year old kid, but somehow, I believe that i’m actually smarter then you. So stop with your foolish attempts to turn us from H.U. It’s the new music, it’s the 21st century. There a great mix, why do you other bands have joined together, like Limp Bizkit and Eminem, to create the alikeness of Hollywood Undead, but they do it without having to join up with another band. They’re one of the greatest bands of this century.

    All you can do is bash them? And call their fans idiots. Their lyrics reach out to people. How the hell do you think Eminem got Famous? Not for being a white rapper, not the way he was raised, but because his lyrics reach out to people. If you payed enough attention to the artist you try to critise, then you’d know that they don’t even care about the money, their in it for the hell of it you fucking dumbass. A great band, who could probaly sell their new Cd, for three times the amount that they are, I mean eight dollars, you’ve got to be kidding me.

    You’re probaly going to come back with some insult, that it’s only that cheap because thats about as much as kids can afford. Before you do, take the time to listen. This Band reaches out to ton of people, that will not changes their ways to matter what you tell them, just like no matter what we tell you, you won’t change your mind. We all have our opions, but you seem to consider yours better then ours.

    You say that Hollywood Undead isn’t art. That shows how little you know. Art could be anything, from a clay toilet- to well anything. This band, is something that doesn’t act like the others, there out to make a name for themselves. THere songs aren’t supposed to reach out to older people, it’s supposed to hit the younger ones, the teenagers, the ones that’ll spread the name HOLLYWOOD UNDEAD. See, unlike you, they’ll be remembered, this article will simply just get forgotten in a short time, how long you think Hollywood undead’ll be remembered, probaly longer then your lifetime, longer then theirs. They’ll be legendary, while you’ll be that waste of air.

    There are tons of people that listen to this band. I’m not like the other people in these comments. I’m not going to insult you, or threaten to beat your ass. I’m a huge fan of Hollywood Undead though. Favorite songs being Undead, and Sell your sell. I’ve spent many nights in cars, with older people. Listening to music, and toking up. Do I type like some retarded, 14 year old. No, and believe it or not, I know people that are almost fifty that i’ve introduced this music too, like my dad, my friend’s mom, my high school principal, that enjoy this music.

    Your music at this current time, still have highe plays, or more profile views. How long do you think that’ll last though. Unlike Hollywood undead, bands like Linkin Park, SlipKnot, Korn, and Disturbed, Limp Bizkit. Have all had their prime times, and the humerous thing, Hollywood Undead is almost close to them, and they’ve only released what two Albums, if that i’m not really sure.

    So, don’t bash something you know nothing about. That’s like me bashing on being a Doctor. I don’t know shit about it, so why would I do it.

    Now, to squash your little mask idea. If you haven’t noticed by now, they have been seen without their masks. You say their just copying SlipKnot? Thats’ some shit, thats like saying everybody who sings, or plays an instrument on HalloWeen is copying Slipknot. So that’s another one of your little facts down the fucking drain.

    I do have a question for you though, what kind of music do you listen too? Why don’t you tell me, so I can go make a decent review about it, and bash on the music, and bands you like. So come on, my email is shaldre.cross@hotmail.com Just hit me up with your music.
    So I can bash it around. Just remember though, my review, will do the same thing you did in this one, saying how the music you listen to is not art, but shit.

    If your a H.U Fan hit me up,Shaldre.cross@hotmail.com
