i usually don't post topics like this, but i can't resist it:

that anime thing is supposed to be
a) a guy
b) that raasta's twin brother

anyway, besides the looks, i have to say that this is one of the shittiest bands i've ever heard, considering their fame and production values. there is absolutely no redeeming musical value in this band. the songs i heard (er, two i think) in the telly were heartless, boring, bland and instantly forgetable. at least most popular RnB, for example, is catchy (for better or for worse).

the sheer shittiness of this band has prompted me to open this topic. i mean, seriously, these guys suck horse dick.

- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kfMnM5Y2rw8

and in a related topic i was watching TV one day and this really "grandiose" video came up. after like 6 hours the song actually started, and it sucked too. it was 30 Seconds to Mars's "from yesterday". again, boring and completely forgettable. what do people hear in this garbage?
anyway the video must've cost a fortune, and i hope the band gets dropped after wasting so much of the record company's money:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lb5Ne2Es71g
(the longest version i could find, just so you can appreciate it in it's rediculously pompous glory).

for once, i will have to say it - i find no reason for someone to like this garbage. it's not even catchy, for crying out loud. complete shit. there is not a single memorable moment in this music, for better or for worse. even the RnB, rap and emo crap on mtv is better than this, at least they sound like they're playing music that they like (and they probably do, good for them). now this stuff is just so damn heartless...

to sum this up:

30 seconds to Mars aren't that bad. Nothing I would buy an album from, but the're not terrible. However, I completely agree that Tokio Hotel sucks royal balls. Not as bad as the worst hip-hop and RnB, but as far as music with guitars go they're definitely one of the worst bands I've ever heard. Their music is so incredibly dull and uninspiring they pretty much make Lacuna Coil sound like Dragonforce..

dunno about 30STS, i only heard that song (btw, what do you think of it?).

there are probably worse sounding garage bands out there, but bands like these have strong label support and large production values yet they sound like shit.

Pretty damn cheap, but pretty decent nonetheless. I've heard much worse popular stuff.

Goddammit I HATE FUCKING TOKIO GAY HOTEL!!! They're über popular in Germany and northern Switzerland, and have all these lame ass hot chicks dreaming about their fucking gay selves. And the fucking lame ass wigger needs to die really bad too. I want to KILL THE ASSHOLES. And they're only like 16 or something.

Allmighty Lucifer, have you seen the comments on youtube?
"Tom is the best guitarist in the world
Bill is the butiful man is the world and he is the best singer in the world!"

Luckily we still have people like this:
"For god's sake... the German version is even more gay than the English one"

yeah!

when i first saw the video on that mcm channel i just thought "gay", then i saw it on portuguese tv and the hate just started fermenting.

seriously, factoring in their fame, record label support and all that, tokio hotel is one of the very worst bands i've ever heard. the music is so "empty" i don't even know where to start.

i've never been so glad my sister hates 90% of all rock, i'd rather have her blasting out Beyonce than this garbage.

On a second listen I do agree that this is utterly terrible indeed, and empty...but they're kinda bad in a hilarious way, I mean it just screams "we're signed because some record company needed another young and cute looking emo band".

Tokio Hotel is fucking shit. They look as embarassing as they sound.

30 Seconds To Mars sucks too. Just 'cuz an actor is in the band, gimme a break. That video killed absolutely any sort of bug in me that thought they were decent. I have a new least-favorite video now.

i'm not even going to ask you who's the actor in 30STM, they're that shit. actually i'm not going to ask you because i'm going to look it up after i post this.

but yeah, doesn't that video blow? that's seriously the must unnecessarily pompous video i've ever seen. you'd think they'd at least come up with a decent song for it.

Even the most decent song in the world would be tarnished at the hands of that video.

And Jesus creeping shit, I'm looking at the Wikipedia article for this band and it makes me hate them even more. How pretentious can one shitty rock/emo band be?

Once I saw two gay men kissing in a park, and one of them was grabbing the other one's arse. And until right now, that was the gayest thing I'd ever seen.

Serious question, is that a chick in that band picture there? Or are there any chicks in there? Is the little dude in the right the son of Jamey Jasta?
