One of the most original hard rock/heavy metal bands to rise up from the United States underground; The original and most prominent lineup featuring Page Hamilton on guitar and vocals, Henry Bogdan on bass, John Stanier on drums, and various background guitarists. Their original sound was based around heavy guitar distortion with droning riffs, outrageous guitar shredding and solos (influenced by bands such as Sonic Youth, Void and Killing Joke as well as many jazz musicians), loud chuggy bass lines, heavy snare drumming, and background guitars to create a "wall of noise" sound.
In 1992 they blasted into the mainstream with their second album "Meantime", which featured their most known song "Unsung". The band also released "Give It" and "In the Meantime" as singles, but both songs flopped in sales and didn't receive as much attention as "Unsung". Helmet's two albums "Strap It On" and "Meantime" were both so groundbreaking that it spawned many watered down imitator bands that ripped from Helmet's sound, the most prominent three being Korn, Deftones and Tool. This move infuriated and disgusted the band, giving them the desire to do something much more experimental to alienate themselves from their imitators.
In 1994, Helmet released their third album "Betty"; a much more melodic album which owed more to bluesy and jazzy heavy metal, which featured the songs "Wilma's Rainbow" and "Milquetoast", both of which became minor hits on modern rock radio. Helmet have gone on to release 3 more albums and still remain a favorite of Modern rock, Hard rock and Heavy metal fans today.

Get the Helmet mug.Is a bunch of bullshit. Repetitive and watered down rock n' roll from the mid to late 80's.
Hair "metal" "musicians" consisted of young bratty slackers that dressed in drag and pitifully lacked in musical talent and creativity; these so called "musicians" really weren't musicians at all, rather they were not in it for the music; but for the money, women, drugs, rockstar image and fame that came along with it. In truth these slackers couldn't give two turds for the music they created, the only reason being these slackers joined rock bands was to follow the popular trend and become famous, sleeping there way to the top without any real effort.

Get the hair metal mug.Stupid goody-two-shoe fuckheads who love to suck up to the government. They think that everything in life is useless and the only thing worth giving attention to is there invisible deity called "god", whom of which they have yet to prove the existance of. They also foolishly believe that the United States was founded as a christian nation, when in fact it was founded upon Agnosticism, yet the Christians stole it from the Agnostics.
I hate christians, They are the worst kind of religious people. They are fucking obnoxious assholes. A christian that lives next door to me snitched me out to the police for smoking the green a couple years back. Hey, guess what. I can do whatever the fuck I WANT, you fucking fascists. I don't care if this is your nation. I am me. So don't you tell ME how to live. I hate you stupid fucking christians. Just fuck off the Earth already and drop dead. Assholes...

Get the Christians mug.The very bland, very unfunny, very unoriginal creator of Family Guy that Fox chose to bring back for another season instead of Futurama. (aka the LESS retarded more original and actually FUNNY show.)
*Making an episode of Family Guy*
Seth MacFarlane: Geez, guys. I'm running out of ideas for Family Guy.
Executive Producer: Hmm. Well maybe we can steal a scene from The Simpsons, then change it up a little bit so people will think it's original, like we always do!
Seth MacFarlane: Great idea!
Seth MacFarlane: Oh, and let's just stick another joke about Tom Cruise being gay in there like we did a million times already, even though South Park did it first. Or maybe make another joke about how Meg sucks.
Executive Producer: Hahahaha! That's hilarious! Yeah, okay, they'll think that's funny, too. Because jokes repeated over and over and over again are ALWAYS funny, right?

Get the Seth MacFarlane mug.Why in the hell did we wage war on Iraq, when it was Al Qaeda (Afghanistan) that attacked us on 9/11?

Get the Afghanistan mug.Lame korn wannabes. I foolishy listened to this pile of dirt cruelly passed off as "music" because I heard it was good metal. What a dumb idea. Black Sabbath are lame Metallica wannabes too! These talentless copycats stole riffs from "St. Anger" and "Death Magnetic" and put it on their lame albums like they created them! Fucking scumbag faggots.
Skip these Black Sabbath hacks and listen to REAL metal like: Saosin, Korn, Metallica, Disturbed, Slipknot, Three Days Grace, The Used and Puddle Of Mudd.

Get the Black Sabbath mug.A superb avant-garde experimental rock band fronted by former Faith No More vocalist Mike Patton. Members include guitarist Trey Spruance, bassist Trevor Dunn, drummer Danny Heifetz, and saxophonist Bar McKinnon.
The band has released many demo tapes (Raging Wrath of the Easter Bunny, Bowel of Chiley, Goddamnit I Love America and many more.) 3 albums (Mr. Bungle, Disco Volante, California.) with California being the most accessible.

And for all you morons who dislike Bungle just because the Patton and Kiedis feud (I know there are some out there who don't like this band because of that incident.), let me tell you all something.
Mr. Bungle OWN the Red Hot Chili Peppers, bar none. Anthony Kiedis is a titty baby who cannot deal with people toying with his ego, so he has to go and screw things up like the selfish asshole he is if he doesn't get his way. Bungle are way more talented than the Peppers, both musically and lyrically. Bungle are better at their instruments than the Peppers, both at skill and sound. The Peppers may be better known, but that doesn't change the fact that Mr. Bungle are way more talented. Bungle absolutely CRUSH the Peppers in comparison.
