(FOUR) THREE DAYS GRACE
What’s so good about Three Days Grace? Seriously, I don’t know. It’s one of those bands that I know has hit singles and tours regularly, but I don’t know shit about them. Not because I’ve not listened or paid attention. I have. Three Days Grace is bland, boring, generic, and such a non-factor in music that it’s hard to have ANY opinion of them. It’s like one part Seether, one part Three Doors Down, one part Nickelback, one part everything that sucks. This is music for the lowest common denominator.
(THREE) BUCKCHERRY
The only people who like Buckcherry are dumb people. The dumb people like drunk girls with too many tattoos and douche bag guys who drink MGD and Jager at the same time. I did enjoy their first single “All Mixed Up Again”, but from there they went a horrible route. People try to call them “glam rock” or even “sleaze rock”, but it’s up tempo generic rock music. It’s like calling Kesha “gangsta” because she talked about Jack Daniels and P-Diddy. Buckcherry is one of those bands that if you see them live they make the audience raise their drinks a lot.
(TWO) DAUGHTRY
He was on American Idol, but he sings rock music so for some reason he gets a pass with people. That’s stupid. He DOES have a decent rock voice, but he chooses to use it singing fluffy commercial rock. It’s Bon Jovi with no balls. It’s crap. It’s what drunk guys in Affliction shirts sing together when they’re being emotional about losing a high school football game ten years ago.
(ONE) SIXX: A.M.
Screw this crap. It’s emo hair metal. That’s all there is to it. Nikki Sixx was sort of a bad ass back in the day, but I after surviving his demons and living through some crazy shit he’s not anymore. It’s like the ears of music fans world wide are being punished with his AA stories in the mold of badly written pander rock. It’s like Nickelback for the hair metal people. It’s weak, it’s lame, and it does nothing new. People get excited about it because it’s comfort music. It sounds just like everything else out there, but it’s from that dude from The Crue so people care about it? No thanks! I’m glad the dude is okay, but I need party music coming from him not this chop crop POD shit.
