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.
