I Set My Friends on Fire - You Can't Spell Slaughter Without Laughter

[Drew Beringer]

I Set My Friends On Fire – You Can’t Spell Slaughter Without Laughter
Release Date: October 7, 2008
Record Label: Epitaph

Apparently there is a new formula to getting signed these days. I’ve organized the steps and have placed them here for you to replicate!

1. Take two obnoxious genres/trends and jam them in a blender. See what happens.
2. Take that new bastardization and cover a popular song currently in the Top 40.
3. Upload track to Myspace. Watch the hits increase.
4. Wait by the phone for labels to call.

And in four simple steps I have described I Set My Friends On Fire. I wish this were a joke.
Their cover of Soulja Boy’s “Crank That” set Myspace on fire, reaching over a million plays. This caught the eye of Epitaph, who signed the Miami duo. I Set My Friends On Fire enlisted From First To Last guitarist Travis Richter to produce this abomination of a debut album. I don't want to be too harsh, and I’m sure Matt Mihanna and Nabil Moo are hilarious guys, unfortunately, they just make horrible music. You Can’t Spell Slaughter Without Laughter combines the obnoxiousness of Metro Station with vanilla “br00t” screams heard in every flavor of the week Myspace screamo band.

Album opener “Sh!t It Talks…I’m Out Of Here” sets the tone of Slaughter with an alien asking the duo to perform on his home planet. Tracks like “Beauty Is In The Eyes Of The Beerholder,” and “Things That Rhyme With Orange” are misguided tracks, sometimes offering a glimmer of musical hope only to be crushed by screaming and other over-bearing programming noises. “HXC 2-Step” will make you wish you didn’t have the sense of hearing. The rendition of “Crank That” is just as bad. Sure, some may argue that Slaughter is “unique” because of the combination of the two genres, but dipping a banana into cold gravy is also “unique” and “different,” and that still will taste like shit.

The most positivity I can muster up for this record is that when they keep it on the pop side with the electronica-vibe, they are somewhat catchy. But their lame jokes and even lamer attempts at “screamo” ruin everything. Set your friends on fire? Please, I’d rather set my ears on fire.

"But their lame jokes and even lamer attempts at “screamo” ruin everything. Set your friends on fire? Please, I’d rather set my ears on fire."

That just brightened my day up that did xD! Abomination of a artist? - Fuck Yeah.
Are they gonna improve? - hmmm.. can't see that one happening...

Great review Drew! Does'nt look like you could add anything more witty to improve it!

[Andrew Love]

ouch

[Tribute2Ben89]

This is vaguely reminiscent of the Alternative Press review, which is absolutely fine by me. I think anyone with any sense would agree that this band is terrible.

Good review.

[hockeyguitar99]

I gave this a 1/10, so glad we agree. This album is terrible.

Good review.
Pretty much every review for this album has been really negative.

[cscwell107]

Wow, lowest review on the site. Its definitely deserving. This album makes me cringe because its so awful. The irony is that well I read this review the banner at the top of my screen is advertising this shitty album.

[allisterkid]

That has to be like the lowest score ever lol.

In other news, my authentic Tony Romo jersey arrived today.

[c_rob2700]

That has to be like the lowest score ever lol.

So did my SJacks jersey...

I doubt there will be as much controversy as the GC review, i just listened to the samples on iTunes.
Murder me.

[Self-DefinedEgo]

Nope not the 'Lowest' review on the site. Plain White T's got a pretty low score aswell...

[c_rob2700]

This is the lowest I've ever seen

[cscwell107]

Nope plain white t's was higher

[NorthstarPark]

I would dip a Banana into cold gravy, I love dipping food into random sauces, I once dipped a brownie into spaghetti sauce and a rice krispy treat into spinach dip. Both were awesome, but this band is not.

[boykosaurus]

My God, this is truly fucking terrible stuff.

[Javs]

Wait are you serious?

The is an extremely low rating for this album.

While i agree that crank that and hxc 2 step are fucking horrible peices of shit songs, all the rest are extremely well created.

They almost implented a mathcore concept and it turned out nicely. Matt screams alot differently then alot of those myspace screamo bands. The music is dare i say, intellegent. They're good at flowing different styles togethor and the musicianship isn't as bad as you say.

And you make it sound like its extremely doused in electronica pop shit, which it isnt. Only a few songs have a little segment of synth, nothing to totally shit on an album for.


This cd should of gotten at least a 60%, well 40% for including those shitty songs (crank that and hxc) on the cd.
They should just throw those out the window.

your logic makes no sense.

[Javs]

lmao why not

[Self-DefinedEgo]

cause.. it just doesn't... ngh!

[c_rob2700]

if each song is worth 10% than their would be 120%.

[RelientMayday]

Daaaang. I guess you gotta give 'em credit for trying...
Actually...
I take that back

[DandonTRJ]

Lowest scoring album until someone here reviews Brokencyde, lawl.

To be honest, I'm listening to them right now, and it's not that bad. "ASL," at least. The instrumentals and clean vocals are actually pretty sweet. Some annoying screams, but I've heard way, way worse from other scene bands. Though... now I'm getting to "But The NUNS Are Watching" -- yeah, this is pretty fucking bad.

Damn. That first track gave me fleeting hope. Oh well.

Also, their cover of "Crank That"? It sounds like they're being gutted with fishing knives. Ick.

[cscwell107]

or jeffree star

[tipoftheiceberg]

well any band who names themselves after an aiden song has to be bad.

[Javs]

Well i dont get how my logic could not make sence seeing as there was no logic involved. I'm not arguing, I'm just saying it didn't deserve such a low score.

It doesn't deserve a high score, but 10% is just stupid.

[applesandcyanid]

Wow. This review is bullshit. Straight up. Ignore the crank that cover and you have some pretty fun music. "Things That Rhyme With Orange" is easily one of my favorite tracks of the year.

[aradiantsunrise]

Hahaha, love the review!

Obviously Drew honestly thinks it's a 10%, that's his opinion, it's his review.

The album is awful to not only him though, it really is a piece of garbage.

[princesschad]

YEAH DREW, THAT'S HOW YOU DO IT! Good job, would read again.

[Shrillex]

i think every person who has reviewed this album gave it 1/out of a high number

[mikado]

the main problem here, is that I'm quite sure there are tons of people who honestly think this stuff is "like, SO awesome."

[deadxsouls]

I wish my review was actually on here. I was a LOT harsher. hahah

[element11790]

I bought it, and I liked it...not gonna lie lol

[Sic Transit Zeb]

you spelled intelligent wrong...wow.

[daaaannnieel]

This album isn't COMPLETE garbage. It has its moments. These moment don't make the duds any better though. Womp womp womp.

:-)

[TimT]

this review = awesome. i laughed out loud the first time i heard crank that. not really sure what these guys are going for

[newfoundmichael]

Pretty much every review for this album has been really negative.

Rouse in the House!

[Daniel Thompson]

Sure, some may argue that Slaughter is “unique” because of the combination of the two genres, but dipping a banana into cold gravy is also “unique” and “different,” and that still will taste like shit.


^^ best thing i have ever read

[CantSlowDown7]

i'm so stoked about the intro of this review, so true

[scmaley]

10% Hahahaa

[meghanlail]

dipping a banana into cold gravy is also “unique” and “different,” and that still will taste like shit.
Amazing.

[youwithoutMe]

this is awful

and i listen more generic screamo bands than most

[hockeyguitar99]

Well i dont get how my logic could not make sence seeing as there was no logic involved. I'm not arguing, I'm just saying it didn't deserve such a low score.

It doesn't deserve a high score, but 10% is just stupid.

It deserves a lower than a 10%, in my opinion, he was generous.

[hockeyguitar99]

i think every person who has reviewed this album gave it 1/out of a high number

Unfortunately, no. http://www.skylinepress.net/review1048.php

I laughed very, very, very, hard when I read this, until I figured out they weren't fucking with me.

I gave it a 1/10 though, look for it in my blog if you wish.

Take the opposite of everything that review said and it would be the truth.

[hockeyguitar99]

Take the opposite of everything that review said and it would be the truth.

Exactly. I strained myself through the album so I could write my goddamn review, but ripping this piece of shit was not worth the pain.

[Clark]

Any band that covers the worst song of all time ("Crank That") and actually makes it worse cannot be worth listening to.

[MyWorldEntire]

Jesus when are bands like this going to die off once and for all?

[Self-DefinedEgo]

Jesus when are bands like this going to die off once and for all?

Once all the Scene Kids stop creaming over members of a band and actually like the music and not just the fucking members.

[Chris Fallon]

I applaud you for being able to get through this shit more than once, Drew.

[cereal4life]

No surprise this is a piece of poop. Excellent brutal review Drew!

[Travis Parno]

I applaud you for being able to get through this shit more than once, Drew.

i was thinking the same thing. well done, drew!

[rckstr29]

Taking advice and running with it! Here I come label!

[NailSinmyback]

the album may be terrible, but listening to them makes me laugh!!! i like the song But the nuns are watching...it gets you so pumped and yet laugh your ass off

[Timetoroll]

Gorgeous review.

[Heart-A-Tact]

Ahaha. Spot on.

[Spenny]

Nice review Drew.

I simply refuse to even attempt to listen to this because of two things...

1. The general consensus is that it sucks ass
2. The song titles are so fucking lame

Not giving it a chance? Maybe, but who can blame me, honestly?

[popdisaster00]

Great review, Drew. Now when can I see one for Fear Before?

[Alex DiVincenzo]

I don't think it deserves that low of a rating, but the review was spot on.

[Özgür Kurtoglu]

Well i dont get how my logic could not make sence seeing as there was no logic involved. I'm not arguing, I'm just saying it didn't deserve such a low score.

It doesn't deserve a high score, but 10% is just stupid.

No, it's not stupid. This band is probably the single worst thing ever attached to the Epitaph name. EVER. I have on good authority that Brett Gurewitz himself rejected better bands, worthier bands that implement different aspects of genres into their music because of their lack of "commercial appeal", and thus ending up with a band like this on his roster. This is a horrid band with a horrid name and a horrid album and horrid songtitles, shitting on a plethora of worthwhile music they claim to have as inspiration to their own. Awful, awful, awful.

[jtyexists9]

I'm shocked he even reviewed this garbage haha

[Drew Beringer]

Great review, Drew. Now when can I see one for Fear Before?
hopefully by the weekend.

[absolution]

Epitaph is trying to even out the playing field after signing Thursday and New Found Glory.

[topher465]

Can we take all the horrible bands on all these labels and throw all their records into New Jersey and burn the whole thing?

[Özgür Kurtoglu]

Well said especially cause you used the word plethora. I like that word but never get to use it.


Haha...glad to see that someone agrees, on both counts. "Plethora" is an underrated word, used way too scarcely in my opinion.

[popdisaster00]

hopefully by the weekend.
Sounds good. I'll be waiting.

[bubige]

yikes.
it's reviews like this that will break a band.
to tell you the truth,
i don't mind the cd.
some of the songs aren't bad, minus the intro, crack that, and idiotic hxc 2 step song.
other then that, most of the tracks are listenable but i think that fact that this band got popular off of a hardcore cover of souljah boy's hit song is kind of pathetic.
one thing i do enjoy, because my band does it, is that this band only has 2 members and only performs with 2 members live.
however, when signing to a major indie label such a Epitaph it's time to get a full piece.
just adding a drummer alone would make the band sound that much better live and look a lot less retarded (IE: youtube)
overall, maybe 10% is a little harsh but i can't blame the reviewer.
all they do is listen to tons of bands CDs..CDs that are probably better then this one.

[bubige]

Can we take all the horrible bands on all these labels and throw all their records into New Jersey and burn the whole thing?


hahahahahahahhaha
Jersey really does suck.

[Jawknee]

Pretty much every review for this album has been really negative.
Good. This band sucks ass and I think the more it gets out there Epitaph will realize how dumb they are for signing this piece of shit "band."

[Özgür Kurtoglu]

I hear that musically speaking, New Jersey is a pretty bitchin' place. Why soil that by dumping crap like this there?

[Brandao]

"Sure, some may argue that Slaughter is “unique” because of the combination of the two genres, but dipping a banana into cold gravy is also “unique” and “different,” and that still will taste like shit."

ahahaha amazing

[Barto1127]

Wow. I'm definitely not a true fan of the genres these two guys put together, but I find this album very entertaining and fun. Some of the stuff is a little rediculous, but it makes me laugh, and I think that is a good quality for this album.

Besides the intro, crank that, and 2 step (pretty much agreed), I like a lot of the tracks and find them pretty cool. NUNS, Orange, ASL, and Rhinos are good, have some good transitions, and even some catchy musical parts. The screams are a bit over the top, but hey, who's screams aren't over the top nowadays?

I also think the album was very well produced, which helps out the electronica parts.

I can see why this would get horrible reviews, especially on a first listen, but I love blaring this, doin some little dances, and sharing good times with my friends that can make light of a weird genre and enjoy what two people's unique take on musicianship is. I'd MUCH rather listen to this album then say, the senses fail or i am ghost album that came out the same day (two bands that I enjoyed previous releases from).

[xsinkshipsx]

Unfortunately, no. http://www.skylinepress.net/review1048.php

holy crap. that reviewer....i dont even know what to say

[tjester53]

what a load of crap. the cd is awesome. quit wearing panties and grow a pair of balls. i give these two kids credit. i've been rocking out to this cd everyday.

[Özgür Kurtoglu]

what a load of crap. the cd is awesome. quit wearing panties and grow a pair of balls. i give these two kids credit. i've been rocking out to this cd everyday.

Why, because you say so? What a dumb thing to say.

[acratertocoffin]

The only saving grace about this band/album is that it's a complete joke. I would agree with the review if they were at all serious.

[GetWellBoss]

haha. that review was amazing.

[saving jonathan]

Haha, this was great, Drew.
The bit about the banana and cold gravy was sick stuff.

Yes, I agree. These two genres trying to mix is absolutely ridiculous.
When I took a listen to these guys a few weeks back I couldn't believe they had actually been signed.

[AndrewCloer]

it doesn't deserve a good score. but 10% is a little ridiculous.

the funny thing is they're still massively popular. and all the "professional" reviewers say they suck.

you gotta admit. asl is pretty freaking good.

[briantalife]

"dipping a banana into cold gravy is also “unique” and “different,” and that still will taste like shit."

haha. great analogy drew. -b

[jbaseball44]

what a load of crap. the cd is awesome. quit wearing panties and grow a pair of balls. i give these two kids credit. i've been rocking out to this cd everyday.
:hitself:

[OKComputer1016]

Awesome review, and your judgment is absolutely correct. These guys are bullshit.

[Broclee]

the main problem here, is that I'm quite sure there are tons of people who honestly think this stuff is "like, SO awesome."

What's sad is that like 4 of them posted BEFORE you posted that!


I can see why this would get horrible reviews, especially on a first listen, but I love blaring this, doin some little dances, and sharing good times with my friends that can make light of a weird genre and enjoy what two people's unique take on musicianship is.

I'm sorry, dude, but I'm struggling to find real musicianship in this rubbish.

[guitarliketom]

it amazes me that people hear this
and say "let me pay you money to do more of that"

[just.Starla.]

This reminds me of the review in Alternative Press a little.

Horrible band with horrible songs.

[Broclee]

For all the positive qualities exemplified by a band like Forgive Durden, the band portrays a solid potential in their future that I can't wait to see rocket into the sky. I think with more experience under their belt they could be the next huge thing, think Hit The Lights but much more talented and a bigger fan base. When you listen to "Razias Shadow" you aren't left with a feeling of just another blip on the expansive pop-punk radar screen, the totally demolish that blip and make their mark loud and clear, go grab this when it hits stores next Tuesday!

From that Skylinepress.net website. Razia's Shadow only got a 7.5, while You Can't Slaughter Without Overproduced Bullshit got 10/10.

:shrug:

[guitarliketom]

hahaha they are playing with millionaires

oh my god

[saysmydoctor]

Wait are you serious?

The is an extremely low rating for this album.

While i agree that crank that and hxc 2 step are fucking horrible peices of shit songs, all the rest are extremely well created.

They almost implented a mathcore concept and it turned out nicely. Matt screams alot differently then alot of those myspace screamo bands. The music is dare i say, intellegent. They're good at flowing different styles togethor and the musicianship isn't as bad as you say.

And you make it sound like its extremely doused in electronica pop shit, which it isnt. Only a few songs have a little segment of synth, nothing to totally shit on an album for.


This cd should of gotten at least a 60%, well 40% for including those shitty songs (crank that and hxc) on the cd.
They should just throw those out the window.
Probably the most unintelligent two paragraphs ever pot together in one post.

[cory-182]

Hey Mr. Tate.....AltPress gave their album a .5/5 and what did you say about their reviewers?

[lenard27]

I don't like bananas, but one dipped in cold gravy sounds really intriguing right now.
Good review.
I thought their cover of Crank That was mildly amusing, but i was amazed to hear that their entire record sounded like that, AKA a novelty for the most part.

[live.]

i'm going to scream over a rihanna song tonight. i'll let you guys know when i'm signed.

[S9Dallasoz]

i think every person who has reviewed this album gave it 1/out of a high number

http://melodic.net/reviewsOne.asp?revnr=7066

3.5/5 here

[Nolessthanblink]

Worst review in ap.net history?

[Armor42]

Great review, but maybe a bit too generous

[WhoSaidThat?]

i'm going to scream over a rihanna song tonight. i'll let you guys know when i'm signed.
Bwahahahahaha!!

[TakenByCars]

i only enjoyed a couple of songs. and track 11 is great, seriously.

[MCSisonfire]

whats sad is, that you, me, and everyone we know actually has to open for this band. hopefully the scene kids go to that show and discover YM&EWK and how amazing they are.

[Nick Le]

This is a horrible album. I agree with you on this.

[SomedayTheFire]

Unfortunately, no. http://www.skylinepress.net/review1048.php

I laughed very, very, very, hard when I read this, until I figured out they weren't fucking with me.

I gave it a 1/10 though, look for it in my blog if you wish.

Wow. That is pathetic, I could write a better review than that.

[Traumahawk]

Considering that this album is a complete joke that these guys probably knocked out in an afternoon it definately deserves a 10%. That being said they do have a few listenable tracks. "Things That Rhyme With Orange," "Asl," Ravenous, Ravenous, Rhinos," "WTFWJD," and "But The Nuns Are Watching." They definately parodied a lot of bands from the scene stealing riffs and progressions. If they really wanted to be rediculous they should do an acoustic version of the album, that would be hilarious.

[kemppettyjohn]

i dont see why the album is so bad. i dont see how you call it the same as every other screamo band when it sounds alot different. i actually enjoy it... especially "ravenous, ravenous rhinos"

[bloodyfuck]

It only matter what you think. Half the time reviews are bullshit anyhow. I bought it and i like a few of the songs on it. It was worth 8.99 to me.

[zeropunk16]

Epitaph: Gain of scene points, loss of self respect.

[just.Starla.]

hahaha they are playing with millionaires

oh my god

All they need is Metro Station and Brokencyde, and it will officially be the worst tour ever.

i'm going to scream over a rihanna song tonight. i'll let you guys know when i'm signed.

:lol:

[CurtyB]

This shit needs to stop. Why the fuck do kids eat this shit up? I cannot believe that bands like this still exist and kids still dye their hair to look like a skunk, make it look like they have bedhead, and then sit in front of their computer taking 30 shots of them looking sad. Will this scene please die?

[Metfan615]

ouch:lol:

[iseethesun123]

Wow. This review is bullshit. Straight up. Ignore the crank that cover and you have some pretty fun music. "Things That Rhyme With Orange" is easily one of my favorite tracks of the year.
And you are easily the biggest dumb ass of the year

[guitarliketom]

Epitaph: Gain of scene points, loss of self respect.

that appears to be their current marketing strategy over the last few years.

as much as i love thursday i fear the future

[iseethesun123]

Epitaph: Gain of scene points, loss of self respect.
I came in here to say something similar to that hahahha

[simplelivin_GCH]

thank god this is a shitty review...im sick of seeing people praise this shitty band

[Here It Goes]

That banana in cold gravy comment acually made me laugh, out loud.

I once ate, and swallowed whole, a mint tea bag covered in salsa. I recieved a keychain for my efforts.

[blinkme]

It only matter what you think. Half the time reviews are bullshit anyhow. I bought it and i like a few of the songs on it. It was worth 8.99 to me.

that's nice for you.

[zeropunk16]

I laughed very, very, very, hard when I read this, until I figured out they weren't fucking with me.

I gave it a 1/10 though, look for it in my blog if you wish.

In short, "You Can't Spell Slaughter Without Laughter" is everything long time fans of Epitaph would hope for from their favorite label.

No. No it isn't. Long time Epitaph fans are swallowing a ten gauge right now as we speak.

[zeropunk16]

I've never listened to Forgive Durden before, but this Wayne character marks their new album lower than this aborted piece of noise.

[crookedneighbor]

Why must a crappy band have such an awesome name?

ben.

[xtheaudition]

dipping a banana into cold gravy lol

[vaguestcargo]

i got the leak for this a few weeks ago and only just got around to listening to it BECAUSE of this review, lol. It's...uhm.... it's pretty goofy. As far as real music goes, these guys are shit, but I sorta look at them like a look at Weird Al. Only weird al is TRYING to be Weird Al...these guys are doing it by accident and taking themselves seriously.

Edit: Two more points. One... this album is like 15 minutes long. How many tracks under two minutes can a band put on an album and actually try to pass them off as "songs"?

Secondly... i'm hopping on the 1/10 bandwagon ... and only giving the 1 because the tragedy of it all is fairly entertaining.

[Keagan Ilvonen]

hahahahahahaha so good Drew.

[hockeyguitar99]

No. No it isn't. Long time Epitaph fans are swallowing a ten gauge right now as we speak.

Are you arguing with me? I didn't write that review. I wrote the one at highbeamreview.com and gave it a 1 out of 10.

[zeropunk16]

Are you arguing with me? I didn't write that review. I wrote the one at highbeamreview.com and gave it a 1 out of 10.

No no no. I was arguing with this quote from the site:

"In short, "You Can't Spell Slaughter Without Laughter" is everything long time fans of Epitaph would hope for from their favorite label."

[lew_1987]

I'm glad this got a bad review. This really isn't unique though; shit like this has been floating around Myspace for a while.

[albertofernande]

i like Things That Rhyme with Orange

[cscwell107]

If they really wanted to be rediculous they should do an acoustic version of the album, that would be hilarious.

There actually is an acoustic version of "Crank That" done by a band named Right Side of the Tree. It's actually kinda ...*gasp* good unlike this shitty album.

Heres the link

It's cool, it's just the way you said it, no problems.

[Drew Beringer]

I'm glad this got a bad review. This really isn't unique though; shit like this has been floating around Myspace for a while.
I know, that's why I put it in quotations, lol.

[AP_Punk]

Awesome review, man. :appl:

I wrote up a little blog earlier mentioning these guys, as well as this comment:

I tend to let Epitaph slide on whatever they do but this band infuriates me. They're not a "band". They didn't play together before this, they didn't tour, they have no other material.

This is the most sadly obvious example of a label hoping to cash in on an internet hyped band. The original Soulja Boy song is like what a year old? Their remake is maybe 9 months old? And in that time they were signed, wrote, recorded and released an album? Yeah if you could cram that all into 15 minutes (as to capitalize on your fleeting image) Mr. Brett would appreciate that.
-Dante

Agreed.

[lew_1987]

I know, that's why I put it in quotations, lol.

For some reason I didn't catch that. Fail.

[awakeohsleeper]

Great review. Sounds like an awful CD.

[toddc]

Wait are you serious?

The is an extremely low rating for this album.

While i agree that crank that and hxc 2 step are fucking horrible peices of shit songs, all the rest are extremely well created.

They almost implented a mathcore concept and it turned out nicely. Matt screams alot differently then alot of those myspace screamo bands. The music is dare i say, intellegent. They're good at flowing different styles togethor and the musicianship isn't as bad as you say.

And you make it sound like its extremely doused in electronica pop shit, which it isnt. Only a few songs have a little segment of synth, nothing to totally shit on an album for.


This cd should of gotten at least a 60%, well 40% for including those shitty songs (crank that and hxc) on the cd.
They should just throw those out the window.

mathcore? really? REALLY? come on, dude, please don't talk when you have no knowledgeable insight into the "genres" you are going to compare with. these forums have an auto-spell on them that I suggest you utilize when misspelling intelligent whilst trying to describe this poor excuse for a band. I don't hate on these kids too much because it's not their faults they got all of this exposure and got signed -- isn't that the point of making music? it makes me throw up to know they are headlining a tour ahead of bands like You, Me, And Everyone We Know -- not saying I even like YMEWK but I feel bad for any and every struggling, unsigned band that have been out there for years touring and making real art with their music while these two prepubescent scenesters suck in their few months of fame. I can't believe these people are on the same label as the Weakerthans. accurately harsh review from Drew.

[FallOutOfLove]

i like this band, not a huge omg obsessive fan girl kinda like, but i like them enough to keep listening

[scomar]

Matt Richter? .... Travis you mean?

[sargentlgfuad]

lmfao.
i love how some people say it's too low.
i think the fact that someone took the time to write this was already pushing it.

[ifwecoulddream]

I'd MUCH rather listen to this album then say, the senses fail or i am ghost album that came out the same day (two bands that I enjoyed previous releases from).

Okay, I do agree that this review is a little harsh. Those three songs (intro, Crank That, HxC 2-Step) are annoying, but every other song has its moments. "Things That Rhyme With Orange" is really catchy and the group shouts on "WTFWJD" are catchy as well. I like this CD because it blends different types of music and some of the breakdowns are sick. And quite honestly, I think these kids mean to make you laugh with the lyrics they write, have you seen their videos?

And as far as saying you would rather listen to this album over the new Senses Fail disc, you gotta be fucking high. Life Is Not A Waiting Room is the best release the band has ever come out with.

[pickemgenius]

This review fails at stating why this album is bad.

I liked this album... alot. It's a fun, intriguing ride that'll get the occasional chuckle along with the occasional "these are some smart lyrics". The musical side of it is nothing special as a whole, there are some very technical parts to it however. *shrug*. I guess i'm just someone who can enjoy fun music.

[Gumbyjag]

I want to see Pitchfork review this.

[Drew Beringer]

Matt Richter? .... Travis you mean?
was thinking of Matt Good at the same time haha

[Jason Tate]

Awesome. I was DYING to read a review after I heard one of their songs when they were a featured band on AP. Why the fuck were they a featured band on here is just ridiculous

the Punknews review is also pretty good. They gave it half a star equal to 10%
I don't recall ever featuring this band on here - ever.

[Özgür Kurtoglu]

if you think this album is bad, you and alt press need to listen to “Things That Rhyme With Orange” & "Ravenous, Ravenous Rhinos" a few more times. i never heard of this band til i downloaded the album. their cover of crank that is pretty fun to listen to as well. everyone these days expect bands to keep playing the same cookie cutter, perfect vocals bullshit, indie rock crap. what the fuck happend to fun?! ISMFOF brought back fun


See, this is exactly why I listen to The Dillinger Escape Plan, Converge and Mastodon. Spot on.

[jaywarden1]

hahahhaahah this review is way too good

[Jason Tate]

From that Skylinepress.net website. Razia's Shadow only got a 7.5, while You Can't Slaughter Without Overproduced Bullshit got 10/10.

:shrug:
What a horrible review. :lol:

Because they stole it from a song by and equally crappy band? (Aiden btw)

So glad that DOUCHEberlin is on my ignore list.

[ZeroGravity107]

This album actually has gotten some play time from me. My cousin had gotten them off Zune and was just going through some tracks and he clicked Things That Rhyme With Orange. I liked it. So I checked em out and some of the album is shitty but I really like TTRWOrange and a couple are decent. :shrug:

you didnt get the title of their record correct in your review.

i found it to be... entertaining. more desrving of a 30% in my books.

[Jason Tate]

I don't know if featured was the right word but they were on the main page as the right or left band profile with a picture. And they have countless banners on here.
They were never featured on the main page in those two spots - ever.

No, it's where people tell you you're an idiot for having that opinion.

also, why did they have to drag the majestic narwahl into this abortion? narwahls are majestic, beautiful, awesome creatures who should never be associated with things like this.

[element11790]

No, it's where people tell you you're an idiot for having that opinion.

thats's pretty cold. how can you criticize someone for their musical tastes?

[element11790]

I feel like everyone brutally reviewed this album the same way everyone brutally reiviewed Metro Station or any other super catchy electro-pop band. People take their music way to seriously sometimes. If you take this band for what it is, a joke, than you can really enjoy it. I mean did anyone review the Flight of the Conchords album seriously?? No, because it was a huge joke. It's ok to listen to music and not take it so seriously.

Now I guess everyone can go ahead and call me a dumbass for liking an album

[Coverbydesign]

I will say this cd does suck for the most part.I think the funny thing about it is they sucker you in with like the first 2 or 3 tracks and then it just goes downhill from there.Before they even started to work on this cd.The day they got signed I was thinking well this cd is going to be a bucket full of suck. And for the most part I was right. I think it was wrong for them to sucker you in with 2 to 3 good tracks and then let there true colors show. Its like holy crap wtf happen. lam sure if they took out the shitty screaming or umm got a better screamer. Either or..will do..But yea lam sure that might help.I dunno I play the first couple of tracks and then turn to something else before suck comes in.

[Özgür Kurtoglu]

Nobody wants shit like this to come from Epitaph, I thought that was universally acknowledged.

This band is completely different than flight of the conchords though. They're nothing alike. Flight of the Conchords is generall fun to listen to. To most people, ISMFOF is NOT fun to listen to.

And yeah, Metro Station? They ARE being serious...they're not a joke band. At least not intentionally.

Yeah I know the point I was trying to make in my rambling was that you don't have to take music seriously all the time. I like the ISMFOF album, I've listened to it multiple times and I think it's really good, except the screams can use some work and that intro was NOT funny! lol

[Hainzey X]

i know we are all (myself included) a litle dumb-founded and maybe ever a little bit bitter at the small amount of sucsess these dudes are having right now but look at it this way : their 15 minutes will be up soon.

hopefully epitaph makes the quick buck off them they're looking for because im sure that's all they're looking for in this band.

that was fucking horrible! i dunno wtf i was expecting haha

tell me about it.

yuck.

This album isn't COMPLETE garbage. It has its moments. These moment don't make the duds any better though. Womp womp womp.

I'm loving all the one liners here involving this band and a random word usually revolving around human excretion.

I'd have more reason to dislike this band if so many posters here weren't so obvious about jumping on the band wagon.

It's a bit sickening how elitist some of you are. Seriously. If you're gonna bash a band, have the balls to give reason to it. No one's word is omnipotent enough to take at face value.

WOW! Another terrible AP.net review that is way off! This is a decent album. I have listened to it 4 or 5 times now I would give it a soild 6.5. Hell I even know people who are not into "screamo" that like the album and have now ventured into other screamo albums.

This album is extremely horrible. It's like they said "O HAY LETS IMIT8 COMPLETELY UNRELATED MUSIC GENRES AND MAKE AN ALBUM!!!11 WELL MAKE MILLIONS!!!1"

This review intrigued me to the point that I had to give the band a listen. My reaction was as follows.

"Well, it's not that bad..."

Thirty seconds in....

"Oh wait. Yes it is."

[psychomode14]

this review (and album) is fucking hilarious.

[StartAngry&Mad]

I don't think anyone's mentioned it yet, but another reason everyone's bashing a shit, fly-by-night, trendy band like this is because we all know of 15 bands who've worked for years, toured to death, and gone through hell to make better music than this and'll never be discovered or signed, let alone to a label like Epitaph. So for everyone who says whose right is it to judge a band like this, I'll flat out say it, they haven't earned anyone's respect yet and its BS that a "joke" (as defenders call them) can lead to label support and fame overnight.

[demondays524]

WOW that's brutal. But well deserved. This band is pure shit.

Never have I ever heard such crap in my life.
I am ashamed to be a human being, knowing that the people who made this are human too.

Except for one time,
I was listening to the 07 Warped Tour Compilation,
and I heard this horrible horrible song...
I don't know who played it though.

[vivian_vitality]

Well if you really think about the CD isnt all that bad. Some of the songs are pretty good. But others just get to ridiculous. If you really think about it though, they cant be that bad because they got signed, so somebody must've like them.

[hipvee43]

hahahah i like this cd tbh. from a comedic standpoint. i think you guys r taking this band too seriously

[UpperNinety]

track 9 sums up this cd in the first five seconds

I enjoyed it thoroughly! It's fun. That's about all I was looking for with this album and I got it. Also, the lyrics are more clever than a good chunk of the run-of-mill bullshit that gets hailed on this site. Probably not a decent live act, however.

I confess, I think "Things That Rhyme With Orange" is an okay track. But that's pretty much it.

The "screamo" part of this band is horrible. Cut it out and these guys could be enjoyable. They're better than Brokencyde though.

Nope not the 'Lowest' review on the site. Plain White T's got a pretty low score aswell...
yeah it got 24% smart one. this is the lowest review on the site

They almost implented a mathcore concept and it turned out nicely. Matt screams alot differently then alot of those myspace screamo bands. The music is dare i say, intellegent. They're good at flowing different styles togethor and the musicianship isn't as bad as you say.

And you make it sound like its extremely doused in electronica pop shit, which it isnt. Only a few songs have a little segment of synth, nothing to totally shit on an album for.


This cd should of gotten at least a 60%, well 40% for including those shitty songs (crank that and hxc) on the cd.
They should just throw those out the window.

I agree, this album was really creative and I loved their take on the genre. Could of done better without a few songs though.' Resses Pieces' and 'NUNS' are the best songs though.

[johnnyferris]

would everyone just look past the bull shit songs(crank that, hxc 2 step)
theres some good songs on here.
just listen to "Reeses Pieces I don't know who John Cleese is" there is so much variety in that song

some songs are terrible.
others could be good but still suck.
and others are weird and fun

overall a fun band that you shouldn't take seriously, cuz they don't take themselves seriously

i wouldn't say this warrants a different review, i thought this review was great, but fun for weird people like me :D

[DeviateRogue]

Obviously Drew honestly thinks it's a 10%, that's his opinion, it's his review.

The album is awful to not only him though, it really is a piece of garbage.
You shouldn't say any music is garbage.. I respect any body who makes music.

I actually like this album! This band isn't trying to be serious and I love them for that.

To quote: Jonny craig "if you can't respect music, then you can go f*ck the F*ck off"

[DeviateRogue]

the main problem here, is that I'm quite sure there are tons of people who honestly think this stuff is "like, SO awesome."
It's catchy, the pop gets me.

Yeah, I agree with this guy.

It's certainly not high art. And that's where you lose pretentious d-bags.

Myself, I don't take this album any more serious than Matt and Nabil wanted it to be taken. They're two guys who were found by a label. They certainly weren't putting their hearts and souls into this album.

This is one of my favorite albums to listen to. They are much more creative and musically talented than a lot of (pretentious) people give them credit for.

[Alligator Blood]

I always found this band funny. Seem like top guys.
