Hardcore bands with "lyric videos"

Jason the Magnificent - 9-16-2014 at 08:02 AM

Please, for the love of all that is holy and hooked on phonics....please stop doing these.

JawnDiablo - 9-16-2014 at 08:50 AM

No shit man, in the interest of keeping me interested, just stop.

im not sure what you mean

Videos where the lyrics pop up on screen while the song plays. Lots of bands seem to be doing them recently for album promos. No one is expecting HC bands to be writing prose...not everyone is Paulie, but seeing 'See Spot run' type lyrics pop up while a song plays is really cringe inducing awkwardness.

catch phrases and mission statements....

Gonna break down the walls,
Kick your scene in the balls!
I'm harder than nails,
Been in 3 county jails!
My crew comes correct,
Got new ink on my neck!

Those would actually at least be amusing.

The new SOIA one was the video that had me dry heaving. It was like some Hot Topic Korn kid in JNCOs was giving a sermon on rebellion or something. Most HC lyrics are pretty dumb...no one really assumes otherwise, it's supposed to be guttural and to the point. But parading them out there synced with the song just amplifies it.

Plus it's just kind of a stupid trend. Don't want to make a real video, just show the album cover with lyrics bouncing around.

I love this video:

Jason the Magnificent - 9-17-2014 at 01:36 PM

See, that's awesome....

or this...where the lyrics are so preposterous you actually want to read them to see how far out someone is.

New song for The Struggle.

I get what you're saying Jason. Of course, I think they are trying to get people vibing on certain songs, and knowing the lyrics so people are singing along to the newer material when they come a tourin'.

MikeFromInhuman - 9-20-2014 at 01:26 PM

I see nothing wrong with lyric videos.
Oh well.

Agreed. Obviously too much info for people that don't want to pay attention to what a song is about.

Jason the Magnificent - 9-21-2014 at 11:28 AM

It's too much info alright.
