best Fred Durst shoutout in Staind's "Outside"

by which I mean after everyone already decided Staind were the worst band ever

again, not defending Staind who are horrible, but there were so many bands I would call the worst band of their era before Staind (Creed, Nickelback, 3 Doors Down) - I think I'd even rather listen to "Outside" or "It's Been Awhile" than that unreleased Nirvana song they remastered to sound like Puddle of Mudd

I'll take Creed over Staind for sure, but Staind over Nickelback & 3 Doors Down

Yeah, I'm feeling you curtis. I like this better than any rock I've heard on the radio and I fucking HATED this when it was out. To me, this song is a watershed moment in blunt-edged commercial hard-rock. It's the source.

I'd take riding a rollercoaster without a lap bar over Nickleback

God, and my girlfriend at the time liked this too. She didn't understand why I would get so upset about it.

Staind to me were terrible because of just how droney their shit was. it was almost offensive in its blandness.

N needs ti embrace the droney.

There is actually one (and only one) 3 Doors Down song I will ride for: "Not My Time"

we should all learn this and play it in a google+ hangout imo

I like droney stuff if it's like...doom metal, a la Cathedral....not warbly acoustic "rock"!

the half-assed strummed guitar and sub-grunge songwriting is definitely the worst thing about Staind

besides all that other stuff

I'll take Creed over Staind for sure, but Staind over Nickelback & 3 Doors Down

I understand where you're coming from, but Creed singlehandedly topped everyone in terms of horribleness with "With Arms Wide Open" (arguably their biggest song) and I can never think of Creed without thinking of that

man i like creed

But within the clip "Biloxi!" really shines. It's a hard vote, but "Biloxi" it is.

seriously--i spent all these years not realizing that's what he was saying and this is a revelation to me

monsters of '00s post-grunge best to worst: Nickelback > Shinedown > Godsmack > Creed > Daughtry > Seether > Three Days Grace > Staind > Breaking Benjamin

dude staind is so much better than fuckin daughtry and seether and three days grace what is wrong with you

"For You" and "Mudshovel" are cool but i don't fuck w/ Staind's seventeen consecutive ballad singles

hoos otm

basically the only reason Staind isn't dead last is i can't even name a Breaking Benjamin song much less one i like but i know i've heard them a billion times

amazingly perfect post-grunge origin story:

Before Breaking Benjamin was formed, Burnley had earned money by playing cover songs in various coffee houses as a solo artist under his own name "Benjamin." He later came up with the band's name, "Breaking Benjamin," after doing a performance of a Nirvana cover, Ben knocked over (to imitate his lifelong idol Kurt Cobain) and cracked a microphone he had borrowed. The owner of the microphone walked onto the stage and said, "I'd like to thank Benjamin for breaking my fucking microphone."[2]

YES

Burnley is victim to several phobias and has even said that the name of their 2006 album, Phobia, was named after that simple fact.

lmao

where does chevelle fit into that list of bands

Chevelle is #1 in the post-Tool/post-Deftones sweepstakes

i wanted to give sd shit for putting nickelback first in that list but then i realized i couldn't honestly think clearly enough about these bands to even rank them so what can you do

i would prob rank them up at or near the top, though -- my wife has some of their albums and they've got some jams

xpost re: chevelle

i would easily take staind over nickelback if only for 'outside' and that one big song i cant remember the name of, lol

yeah that's the thing about nickelback -- love em or hate em they're at the top of their heap because it really is a heap

it's been a while

yeah this might be the only modern subgenre (if you can even call it that) that i feel not even a teeny bit compelled to be fair about

like when this stuff was seemingly the only game in town it might have just looked like i was hating on all new radio rock in a lol old man kinda way but there have been enough mainstream rock bands i've liked since to just declare this strain shit and be done with it

straind

i have liked pretty much every chevelle single

send the pain below
the red
closure

"jars" is the shit

stopped listening after, like, 2003 prob but will check it out on spottily

it's great, i think at some point lately it's surpassed "send the pain below" as my favorite chevelle song

just listened -- not bad but i still think i like the songs i listened more

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

oooooh

biloxi

i always wonderd

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

man wtf

i'm feeling i'm feeling those lighters

i don't think people realize that there is seriously no other city name that could take the place of Biloxi and be funnier here

"Steubenville!"

this poll pleases meh
