    C+ I'm not really into it all that much, the voice is in one tone almost the whole time. It just bored me and makes me want to go to sleep listening to it. Sorry for thrashing one of your favorite songs, but I'm not really into it all that much.

    Static-X - "Love Dump"

    I saw these guy live on Wednesday and they are awesome live. I know they're pretty heavy metal, but I like the electric guitar they play. They call their music evil disco, just thought you would want to know that [​IMG]

    Voodoo Child Can I Kick It?

    Man, that was hard to listen to at parts. I really can't stand Static X. They're just loud and boisterous for the sake of being loud and boisterous - their songs don't really have any melody to them. Metal's really gone down hill over the years, and it's a shame. Bands like Metallica and Pantera are very listenable, but Static X is garbage.

    (Don't flame me on that - it's just my taste.)

    I liked that one a lot. I'll definitely check out more of their stuff, I'll probably pick up the CD. However, like I told you, the frontman is kind of queer, but still on point with the vocals.

    A Perfect Circle - Imagine

    Imagine - B

    I love the original song, but that cover was far too dark for my liking. The lyrics and the original song are so light and uplifting. The juxtaposition here just didn't work well for me.

    But yeah, as far as Satellite Party frontman Perry Farrell (also of Jane's Addiction fame), here's his wife -

    Love the song, I feel wrong rating it. Funky, love the bass as does everybody. If I was a stripper, this would definitely be my song.

    Here is the song I told you I'd put up for you, VC.

    APC - Judith

    **** YOUR GOD! That's the song that introduced me to APC, Tool, and everything Maynard does. It's great, and I absolutely love it. Keeping up with the APC recommendations...

    APC - Gravity

    A+

    I'm really getting into APC lately. I've always liked Tool, and my friends have been pushing me to get into APC, but for whatever reason (probably laziness), I never downloaded any of their stuff. But those last two songs in this thread were so good I had to hit up Limewire right after I listened to them.

    I love that video for Gravity too. Is that the official video? If not, it should be. The desert's such a beautiful place, especially the Grand Canyon. It's my favorite part of America geographically. I wish more bands would put their music to that sort of imagery instead of spending millions of dollars on makeup and trendy dancers.

    B Wasn't bad, wasn't my kind of music though. Nice voice. The video is pretty trippy.

    JET - Cold Hard Bitch

    One of my fav songs to play in the summer.

    A+ I love that song, I actually was about to post some Jet too. Jet sounds alot like classic rock that got so popular, but their new CD wasn't so hot.

    Earshot - "Wait"

    This was on Madden a few years ago, so you guys might recognize it from there.

    They sound like they're crying out for attention, sorry not feeling it. Nothing personal.

    Another great summer song, at least for me...and Sasha.

    This song's really not that great technically, and it's very generic and stereotypical teenie bopper music. But yano what? I like it. I guess it's a guilty pleasure song, because I don't really like anything else from the band, but the song's lyrics make you reminisce about old summers.

    That was interesting...I don't know how to rate it. I didn't find it good, didn't find it annoying or bad either...therefore it's a C.

    Ridiculously cool video... gotta love that version of it though...

    Especially in Michigan - A+

    I'm a huge RHCP fan, so I'll pretty much give anything they do at least an A, but this song is one of my favorites off the new album. The only thing I don't like is the lyrics, "lions and tigers,...etc." it just doesn't fit with any of the other lyrics. On the other hand, I love the lyric, "I find it when I'm slipping in, oh in Michigan."

    I love that song, just a good chill back (stoned) and relax song. Plus it makes me think of Austin Powers.

    Anything done by Faith No More is worth an A+ in my opinion. They're one of the most underrated bands of all-time, especially the band they eventually spawned in Mr. Bungle. Both are tremendously overrated (and this is coming from a guy who's an RHCP fan, two bands which hate eachother).

    Beautiful voice, loved the little accent. She was pretty cute, too.
