I just saw the MTV Icon special when they played it on VH1 last night.
Basically all the lousy bands of today trying to do Metallica songs.
Snoop Dogg was the worst with his rap version of "Sad But True." Korn
was pretty bad, too, no wonder he does that rap screaming thing, because
he can't sing. And everyone cut out solos! Staind's unplugged version of
Nothing Else Matters I think, I forgot what he did, was really good though.
But with everything else, how they all ruined the songs was terrible.
I was surprised, though; it seemed to me that they totally denied any
existence of the Loads. Avril Lavigne played "Fuel," that was it; I
thought she was a pop singer and but my sister told me she was a punk
rocker, so I was surprised to see something pretty decent. But there
were several songs I liked off the Loads, such as Thorn Within, Outlaw
Torn, Bleeding Me, Hero of the Day, and Low Man's Lyric, and I was surprised
to see it all just ignored.
I had heard the new song "Frantic" from some web site, and I did like
that song, though I hated the radio release "St. Anger" because it
sounded too much like Nu-Metal. Not buying the CD though until I hear
more songs; I don't trust them, the last decade produced albums with
only a few good songs on them.
Just my thoughts.
