Brokencyde - BC13

[Scott Irvine]

Brokencyde - BC13
Record Label: Suburban Noize Records
Release Date: October 21st, 2008

There is a scene in the movie Children of Men where Michael Caine blares contemporary "zen music" so as to humor Clive Owen after a long, hard day -- the music is maniacal and downright awful so as to represent the very depths of hell art has sunk to in the Apocalyptic setting of the movie. Sirs and mams, that was a movie, and though there exists music as Michael Caine played aloud (in this case, Aphex Twin), Brokencyde is very real and, God knows why, is growing steadily more popular. Before this, I had thought that MTV's script-happy show "Parental Control" was at the very end of the dementia-inducing spectrum, but thirteen year-olds who find attending eighth grade algebra equivalent to Dante's inspection of Hell have pushed the boundaries to a frightening, frightening degree. By combining the very worst elements of bottom-of-the-barrel dancefloor hip-hop with an incompatible amount of screaming, Brokencyde has proven that thirst for the dolla' dolla' bills y'all can and will fuck things up in the process -- in this case whatever dignity "music" has left.

There were more times than I could count in the duration of BC13 where I was convinced that this album, this band is one big joke that simultaneously spoofs two notoriously ailing genres. With lines like, "Girl you make my pee pee hard" and "If you want me baby feel me in/Cause I don't waste my time with lesbians" -- it all has to be a joke, right? Right? Hip-hop has turned in to one big campfire story-swap of dancefloor and party scenes, but after listening to even one song on BC13 my skin begins to feel tingly and my grasp on reality slowly begins to weaken. The emissions from this clusterfuck of warped intuitions must be vacuumed away immediately by backpacking through Asia or reading and comprehending Finnegans Wake, which explains the average rationality of Brokencyde's fanbase because a chapter or two of David Eggers and a roadtrip two states over with your family is a fine foundation for a kid to get allured by Se7en, Phat J, Mik L, and Antz's (actual nicknames of the bandmembers) tall tales of sex-centered exploits.

I'd like to specifically describe one or two songs, but all five more or less sound as overwhelmingly bad as I have tried to illustrate above -- so why even bother? The keys and beats are the GED to Soulja Boy's High School diploma, the lyrics a desperate plea for a one-off role in a snuff film. The vocals are the least wronged aspect to this entire picture, but if the lyrics are so laughably bad then you should not care if the singer can carry a tune or the screamer can properly enunciate "IN-STANT-MESSENGER" (see "HoFoSho" for the latter gem.) Let's just say that this review wouldn't exist if this band hadn't of been taken seriously. But they are. Music is subjective only until a certain point, kids. Brokencyde is simply an embarrassing gauge of where we are as a society, a disgusting joke, a capitalization on pubescent desires and our oversight for such stale bullshit gaining unreasonable notoriety.

It's not a terrible thing to listen to music your parents would approve of, kids.

[Travis Parno]

brilliant.

[hiddentrack]

review rocks, band sucks.

[zubinmoosa]

As soon as I saw a Brokencyde review, I knew it would bring the lolz

[kianacarly]

Some of my friends listen to Brokencyde. They always play it on full volume while we're driving around. Worst. Thing. Ever.

[more heart]

that score was way too high

[poppunknerd182]

that score was way too high
agree

[THE_SICKEST]

Its almost as good as millionaires.

[newfoundmichael]

While this band really does suck, it does get kind of old seeing these reviews that are obviously just going to tear the bands down. I mean, it is hilarious, but just kinda predictable. Ap.net is just way better this shitty music ya know?

[mogwaifearsatan]

the music is maniacal and downright awful so as to represent the very depths of hell art has sunk to in the Apocalyptic setting of the movie. Sirs and mams, that was a movie, and though there exists music as Michael Caine played aloud (that song had to come from somewhere right?)

uh, yeah, it's omgyiya switch7 by aphex twin off of drukqs, which came out in like 2001, and it's an incredible track by an incredible artist. i thought you actually had to know shit about music before they let you review it?

also, if you honestly wasted time reviewing a fucking brokencyde album, then you just got trolled and are just as dumb as any of their 'fans'. this is obviously all a huge joke and anyone who can't see that is blind.

[Blake Solomon]

I've been brought to tears

[hockeyguitar99]

I already wrote one, it's been up for a few weeks.

[GoWaitInTheCar]

First it was cool to listen to rap music because it was "ironic". Now it's a staple in the scene to listen to it more then regular music. I will never understand the idea of this trend or trends like these. Kids think for themselves less and less as the days past. In two or three years everyone will laugh at this album and the kids who listen to it will be ashamed. Remember when everyone thought My Chemical Romance was cool?

[Fantastic.]

Scott, you're review speaks the truth, from reading them in the text to them coming out of your mouth.

Very nice job, this lets me (and others) know how much of a joke this band really is. How is this real? I don't get it.

[MixedwithBlood]

probably my favorite review ever...seriously.

[zubinmoosa]

I already wrote one, it's been up for a few weeks.
Oh, didn't see that. Your review was awesome as well. Scott's score was probably a little high though...

[batmannj]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E5GNwCITd9g

pause the video at 1:16 for a lol.

watch the rest at your own discretion.

[Shrillex]

worst band ever

[hockeyguitar99]

Oh, didn't see that. Your review was awesome as well. Scott's score was probably a little high though...
His is higher, but is also far more intelligent and articulate than I am. haha.

[Chris Fallon]

Shit, I wish I wrote like that. Probably one of the best reviews I've read on the site. Great work -- for the review and for getting through this without hanging yourself.

[Scott Irvine]

I didn't intend for the score to be as high as it is, I gave it as fair of ratings as I could. I'm not going to skimp on the vocals or the production just because I hate the album as a whole.

[SureAsRain]

i agree i remember that so called irony of listening to dub/rap/trapped in the closet music.
this is just plain ridiculous; an insult to anyone who actually cares about music.
rap music is an art form and "artist" (or more like spoiled rich kids who have mac computers and midis) like this are a disgrace

[Julia Conny]

uh, yeah, it's omgyiya switch7 by aphex twin off of drukqs, which came out in like 2001, and it's an incredible track by an incredible artist. i thought you actually had to know shit about music before they let you review it?

I don't think the band is a real joke - the band might actually believe in themselves.

Some of these kids out there are just wacky.

[Julia Conny]

And PS - props to the review, Scott. I'm surprised you could find more two words to describe this crap. My review would've gone as such: "pure shit" or "fucking terrible".

[ihavechappedlip]

Brokencyde Thrashes Unreal!!!

[Young Machetes]

This review is amazing. This band, as well as Millionaires, are complete wastes of space on this earth. There is not one redeemable quality of Brokencyde.

[koala72]

Some of my friends listen to Brokencyde. They always play it on full volume while we're driving around. Worst. Thing. Ever.
I personally wouldnt get in the car. Or i would break the cd player.

Thank you for posting that link,,,now I have to look for a new computer as I have to throw this one out of the window...

In all seriousness, I've seen this band's name come up so many places and this review (which was fantastic) finally made me preview them on eMusic...I can geninuely say this is the single worst thing I have ever heard...

haha.
this.

[Anton Djamoos]

Excellent review. The GED to Soulja Boy's High School diploma. Well done.

[bradnewman]

im scared of how horrible this band is

[Kbm600]

probably my favorite review ever...seriously.

This.


This band is so horrible. I've never bothered trying to get through a song.

[Nourez]

that score was way too high

Agreed.


But, this review is probably the best thing I've read all year.

[Daniel Thompson]

very good review.

[DI Pistola]

And PS - props to the review, Scott. I'm surprised you could find more two words to describe this crap. My review would've gone as such: "pure shit" or "fucking terrible".
I was just going to say that--this review sports some pretty impressive wordplay, when "shit" would have sufficed.

[reissgoespunk]

Fuck.

This.

"Band".

[CellarGhosts]

great review.

[Ryzenfall]

Incredible.... review.

[GoWaitInTheCar]

Unfair to call this rap. Just sayin'.
They view what they do as hip hop, no question. They think they're hot shit.

[lucky#88]

went to the myspace just to see how bad this was...i got thirty seconds into the first song and threw up in my mouth

[Steve Henderson]

Hahahaha, fucking epic review. I love Scott Irvine.

[Steve Henderson]

uh, yeah, it's omgyiya switch7 by aphex twin off of drukqs, which came out in like 2001, and it's an incredible track by an incredible artist. i thought you actually had to know shit about music before they let you review it?

also, if you honestly wasted time reviewing a fucking brokencyde album, then you just got trolled and are just as dumb as any of their 'fans'. this is obviously all a huge joke and anyone who can't see that is blind.

I like Aphex Twin a lot, but he made a career out of cacophonous sounds that are sometimes unlistenable, especially outside the confines of his records as a whole.

[WhoSaidThat?]

Superb review. If Good Morning Revival is equivalent to a dental appointment, then Brokencyde is the equivalent to actually having your teeth yanked out by Jeffree Star.

[shtjames]

album of the year

[LongDistanceDrunk]

I knew I had heard that song before I just didn't remember who it was by by. My brother fucking loves them as well as Mr. Bungle. I don't personally like them but I respect how amazing and creative their music is. That type of music I can only enjoy when I am high. They are too talented to even be mentioned anywhere near BrokenDick

[QuietThings430]

Finally!
"bc13 motherfucker". God this band needs to end... now.

[GoWaitInTheCar]

So what they view their music as is what you also view it as? They think they're hot shit in your words, so does that mean you think they're hot shit?

I'm not trying to argue, haha, I'd just rather have this type of crap in its own genre--not attached to anything else. :shrug:
I'm saying regardless of what we think genre they're in, bands always put themselves into other ones. How many say shit like "Oh, we play rock music but it has a bit of a southern feel." Turns out it's just pop/punk. Or the always good, "Yeah, I don't know what to call us, it's sorta rocky and sorta not. Are influences are pretty broad" and it turns out to be pop/punk.

This band views themselves in the whole "rap/crunk" genre. I'm not saying that's what they are, I'm merely saying that's how they view themselves.

[IamTheINDUSTRY]

Some of my friends listen to Brokencyde. They always play it on full volume while we're driving around. Worst. Thing. Ever.
thats the coolest!

[Petzl]

The keys and beats are the GED to Soulja Boy's High School diploma

That might be one of the sickest burns in the history of time.

[lostxmyxmind]

good read
my morbid curiosity led me to go to their myspace and listen to their :puke:"music"
now i understand the saying curiosity killed the cat

[jimjam32]

Some of my friends listen to Brokencyde. They always play it on full volume while we're driving around. Worst. Thing. Ever.
you need new friends.

[George-Michael]

So the other day I went on my little sister's facebook. Her status said "need new music for my ipod any suggestions?" A boy then posted a link brokencyde's myspace. My sister then responded, "This is awesome, thank you!"

My sister has since been excommunicated.

Well, at least it's a step up from the Jonas Brothers...

Sort of.

[Here It Goes]

I thought the name of this band was Brokencycle. The "d" looked a lot like a "c" and "l". Still haven't heard them though. seriously that terrible?

[Saucey McRib]

This review is brilliantly written AND 100% accurate. You don't see that every day.

[sidekicksuicide]

Some of my friends listen to Brokencyde. They always play it on full volume while we're driving around. Worst. Thing. Ever.
and they're still your friends?

[Alex!]

Thank you for this review. This band is awful.

i commented on the video about how bad the song was (i might have written a nice paragraph about how it was complete and utter crap) and now there is some girl that spelled you're "yer" and you "yew" trying to insult me
i feel so bad about myself. she really put me in my place. :rolleyes:

[Charles777]

I've been brought to tears
I'd love to see you review this

[popofeliz]

Well, at least it's a step up from the Jonas Brothers...

Sort of.

NO, i rather listen to jonas brothers than this, this is just a big piece of crap

jonas brothers > this crap of brokencyde

[deadwrong188]

good thing this album was reviewed cause i was on my way out to buy it...

[billy_yo]

Its almost as good as millionaires.
dont you mean almost as bad?

[mr chainsaw]

I have never heard this band, but I kinda figure with all the shit that gets talked about them...it's best to just ignore them.

[CellarGhosts]

I have never heard this band, but I kinda figure with all the shit that gets talked about them...it's best to just ignore them.
It is.

[Broclee]

My brother listens to this drivel.

It's fucking awful.

I'd rather cut my own eyeball with a razor blade.

[kianacarly]

and they're still your friends?
Unfortunately, being sixteen and all, it's hard finding friends my age group that actually listen to anything decent, especially living in a small town. I'm mostly just waiting for them to realize how much it sucks and grow out of it so I can make fun of them.

[tait]

horrible band

[fightoffyrdmns]

I applaud you for actually being able to listen to that all the way through. Actually, I think you're insane, but it's still respectable to sacrifice yourself to save others from this.

[jeremypeele]

I'm sorry, but can someone tell me how this wasted space of a "band" got on this years Warped? I say we all go to their set and throw bottles at them.

[bobcatbob18]

I'm sorry, but can someone tell me how this wasted space of a "band" got on this years Warped? I say we all go to their set and throw bottles at them.
There is no doubt in my mind that they will get eaten alive by fans and bands alike.

[OKComputer1016]

best review ever

[Keagan Ilvonen]

best review ever

This.

[emkvetwin]

it's pretty strange to be reading this review while listening to Fleet Foxes. talk about opposite ends of the spectrum.

[Chromefox]

18% is too generous. The other guy had it right with 3%. :-d

[RyanFTW]

They view what they do as hip hop, no question. They think they're hot shit.
It's how I view them, a very warm, fresh piece of shit.

[WakingTheMisery]

This review is unfair.

[themadsilentist]

The keys and beats are the GED to Soulja Boy's High School diploma

:lol:
Very well-written review. More than this so-called band deserves.

[The Summer Ends]

Worst band I have ever heard. Easily.

[therookielot]

hklHahhaHHaha awesome review.

I can't wait to jeer this band at warped tour. I'm probably going to get kicked out.

[anamericangod]

Finally!
"bc13 motherfucker". God this band needs to end... now.

Nice avatar!

:nono:

[Debut_Fin]

"The keys and beats are the GED to Soulja Boy's High School diploma"

that made me laugh a lot. i still haven't heard a single brokencyde song, but children of men is one of my favorite movies

[alert=danger]

Well that was an enjoyable read.
18% is very generous.
I do not understand how music like this can survive.
Music is not at all what is used to be.

See anamericangod's blog. Sums everything up exactly.

[SeanEBoy2686]

i can't believe someone put the time and money into releasing this garbage... no part of there "music" has any quality to it

[cory-182]

that score was way too high
You beat me to it.

[mcdizzle88]

Some of my friends listen to Brokencyde. They always play it on full volume while we're driving around. Worst. Thing. Ever.
new friends, pronto.

My brother listens to this drivel.
new brother, pronto.

Nice avatar!

:nono:
definitely saw the avatar, and thought it was you who made that post haha

[awakeohsleeper]

Great review. I've had the pleasure of never hearing these guys. I hope I shall always be so fortunate.

[jtyexists9]

Haha. Great job.

[r_r_repeat]

Well, at least it's a step up from the Jonas Brothers...

Sort of.
No.

The JB suck. They have their use in society for the pre-teens and disney tweens. But Brokencyde is just... Brokencyde.

[r_r_repeat]

Nice avatar!

:nono:
AH! When I saw that guy's comment I thought it was you!!! There can only be one!!!

[Drew Beringer]

lol great review Scott

[katieissweet]

I knew this would be great. Hahaha.

"Girl you make my pee pee hard"? Seriously? Prime songwriting right there.

[Broclee]

This review is unfair.
If by "unfair" you mean "spot-on," then yes, it's very unfair.

[XEmoBoyShandorX]

Scott is a brave person to be able to listen to that whole album. I don't think I could even get through a few songs. Great review.

[FallOutFreak27]

The Vocals should be 0.25

[lucygray]

This score is way too high and we should really stop referring to this lost group of boys as a band and the noise they make as music.

[the rog]

Great review... or best review?

[YouSmellExcited]

why is this review here if everyone hates this band?

[altemose09]

Some of my friends listen to Brokencyde. They always play it on full volume while we're driving around. Worst. Thing. Ever.
friends don't let friends listen to brokencyde and drive

[Broclee]

why is this review here if everyone hates this band?
Just because we don't like it doesn't mean it doesn't deserve a review.

[UpperNinety]

Best review...The could have least gotten a little lower score on lyrics like a .25
Production, lyrics, and musicianship is a .25 as well in my opinion

[HometownHero]

The Vocals should be 0.25
No they should just get a 0.00000000000000000000. They are fucking awful all around. The worst thing about music. The end. Great review

[UpperNinety]

Okay I'll give you that...

[therookielot]

if we can go less than 0 that'd be cool too

[dartanian=gods]

As soon as I saw a Brokencyde review, I knew it would bring the lolz

It's Lulz, not lolz meme boy.

[mybreakingpoint]

such a great review

such a terrible excuse for music

[Keaton]

Unfortunately, being sixteen and all, it's hard finding friends my age group that actually listen to anything decent, especially living in a small town. I'm mostly just waiting for them to realize how much it sucks and grow out of it so I can make fun of them.

THAT IS BULLSHIT.
im sorry, but I hate when people use their age as a thing that stops them from associating with people. im 16. I don't hang out with dipshits that listen to brokencyde. I hang out with people that I like, that I have things in common with despite their age. I have friends who are 12, and friends who are 28.

saying your friends like shitty music is one thing
but saying you just haveeee to deal with it bc your 16 is utter nonsense.

sorry for getting riled up.

[tommy's ghost]

I thought the name of this band was Brokencycle. The "d" looked a lot like a "c" and "l". Still haven't heard them though. seriously that terrible?
I was feeling cocky and decided to give them a listen. Never again.

Never again.

I can still hear the screams when I try to go to sleep...

[UpperNinety]

This is just pure myspace trash and to come think of it...They call themselves Crunkcore...What in the heck is this suppose to describe other than Puréed shit in a blender

[Handraa]

Its almost as good as millionaires.
Thats pushing it, NOT!

[PoisonInMyVeins]

words can't describe how much i hate this band. thank you for this review.

[xsinkshipsx]

Well, at least it's a step up from the Jonas Brothers...

Sort of.
ok....I know this will probably be the stupidest argument I have ever made in my whole life BUT....

if I had a sister that was that age, I would MUCH rather listen to the jonas brothers rather than brokencyde.....actually mostly anything but brokencyde

[AndrewCloer]

lyke omgzzzz!!!!!! ur just jealous b/c there so br00tal!!!


ahaha.

not.

[trappedintime]

I sure hope they read this review. :-d

[guitarliketom]

Idk... This may diserve a higher grade for creativity. Creative, yes. Good? Oh dear god no

[Nourez]

ok....I know this will probably be the stupidest argument I have ever made in my whole life BUT....

if I had a sister that was that age, I would MUCH rather listen to the jonas brothers rather than brokencyde.....actually mostly anything but brokencyde

I just VNC into her computer whenever she listens to music and disable the speakers. My philosophy in life is when someone's music is annoying you, you forcibly gain access to their computer and force them to use earphones.

[YeahRiight]

Some of my friends listen to Brokencyde. They always play it on full volume while we're driving around. Worst. Thing. Ever.
Kill yourself.

[UpperNinety]

they would be like pshhhhhhhhh whatever!
Who ever said the jonas brothers is a step up...Those disney kiddos actually have musical talent, which Brokencyde clearly doesn't have.

[gladnads]

voted .25, moving on.

[YeahRiight]

So after reading this review, I got brave - really brave. I visited MySpace.com, disregarded my notifications telling me how many comments I have received and went to Brokencyde's MySpace page and listened to between 12-17 seconds of a song.

Well this is my signing off. I have taken all that I can possibly take in this world. Goodbye Ap.net, goodbye cruel world.

[what_ever]

this score is way too high.

[Mike Kraft]

I have to give you props, Scott. Not only for the great review, but for making it through the album without sticking pointy things in your ears. They are so horribly bad that I use it as the new form of "Rick-rolling". Readers beware!

[mickmadethelist]

my only question is...how did you make it through the album?

[xOBEYx5]

Awesome review. I would pick almost any other "musician" over these jokes. I would seriously listen to the screams of patients in burn centers than listen to this.

[A78]

the 13 in BC13 is obviously the average age of their groupies.

[Operator!]

Scott, you should recieve some kind of medal for sitting through that entire load of crap.
I'm surprised your stereo/iPod didn't melt. Or did it?

[YeahRiight]

the 13 in BC13 is obviously the average age of their groupies.
Or the year of civilization that records like this send us back to.

[birthstoned]

ill prob get another hole ripped for saying this but that song shitzo, gets me a little hyped up. that s the only song though that worth the listen to me.

[ExplodingStereo]

I remember the first time I saw a link to one of their videos saying "worst band ever". I wasn't sure what to expect, but I just remember laughing at first, thinking "this is a pretty funny joke band". Then I looked it up and found out they're a real band. What has happened to music?

[AlkalineAvA]

this is one of the few times with ap/net that you guys need to lower the score hahahaha.

[goldengirlsk]

i am SO sorry that you had to actually listen to this album, so that you could review it

[aoftbsten]

haha amazing review

I'm very sorry you had to listen to this, very sorry

[beanmaru]

I've never listened to them and after reading the "lyrics" you've posted I never plan to.

[YouSmellExcited]

Just because we don't like it doesn't mean it doesn't deserve a review.

a review for everyone to talk shit. grow up

[Brett3]

Worst album ever.

[llmp]

Gotta love how shit like this gets reviewed, while there are plenty of amazing albums out there going completely ignored by this site.

[UpperNinety]

Gotta love how shit like this gets reviewed, while there are plenty of amazing albums out there going completely ignored by this site.
Not everyone can get to in time...

[oncedarkness]

spot on review

[llmp]

Not everyone can get to in time...
Who connected to this site didn't know this album was going to be shit? It's completely pointless (aside from laughing about how bad they are, not really the point of a review), and time that could have been reviewing some small bands that might actually find some fans here. That's all I'm saying.

[Analog Rebellion]

Hahaha, I love this for the Children of Men reference.

as a texan there is a lot of good local bands. One of which I'm proud of is This Will Destroy You...I love music like that.

Local is where its at

Wow, never expected to see anyone from San Marcos on this site...and yeah, Texas has plenty of great bands. Never seen This Will Destroy You live, though.

[UpperNinety]

go to Lucy's on the square. They play there when in town. Lucy's is a great venue for some diverse genres from Hardcore/metal to local hip hop if you like.

[kianacarly]

THAT IS BULLSHIT.
im sorry, but I hate when people use their age as a thing that stops them from associating with people. im 16. I don't hang out with dipshits that listen to brokencyde. I hang out with people that I like, that I have things in common with despite their age. I have friends who are 12, and friends who are 28.

saying your friends like shitty music is one thing
but saying you just haveeee to deal with it bc your 16 is utter nonsense.

sorry for getting riled up.
Um... sorry? I didn't mean to use my age as an excuse. To be honest, I'm really shy. I've had most of the same friends since the third grade, obviously before they got into bands like Brokencyde, and as much as the band sucks, I'm not going to just de-friend them because they're going through a lame phase. I do like my friends and we do have things in common, it's not like I'm just settling for them. I love my friends but not all the music they listen to. Maybe I could go out and find a broader range of friends, but I'm dealing with my shyness and have been seeing a therapist for it for a while. So um, sorry again? :shrug:

[llmp]

go to Lucy's on the square. They play there when in town. Lucy's is a great venue for some diverse genres from Hardcore/metal to local hip hop if you like.
I'll have to check it out sometime. Only been here a semester so still figuring this stuff out.

a review for everyone to talk shit. grow up
The review was a fair and just review, and everyone is "talking shit" because this album is atrocious and unlistenable.

I fail to see why I need to "grow up."

[Alex DiVincenzo]

That was fun

[davidmest]

i think we should all simply stop talking about this "band," and forget that they ever existed. they hurt my ears. and their dancers are hideous.

[nickymetal]

I seriously do not know how anyone can listen to this shit. Seriously. For starters I can barely even listen to a band like The Wonder Years because of how "jokey" their lyrics are even though the music is great. This "band" does not even have that (inventive music) going for them.

[outrageouslyAL]

i feel bad that you had to listen to the entire album.

once some of my friends were at hot topic and they saw these kids buying like 30 of the same shirt.... later we were at a show that brokencyde was unfortunatly playing at... turns out it had been them buying there own shirts to sell at the show.

hah

i wish i could remember who the headliner was. but i believe every avenue played and that's why i went.
it was a terribly awkward line up.

[punk89]

I heard so much shit-talking on this band, so I never wanted to hear anything by them. However, before reading this review I decided to commit the unpardonable sin of polluting my ears with this god awful musical diarrhea.

It makes me angry, very very angry, to know that bands like this are getting recognition and getting PAID while numerous genuine and talented bands slave away for little to zero pay. EVEN if this band is writing this music as a joke, I can't seem to get in on the joke. Elementary screaming and tutorial Fruity Loops beats played under pretentious white rapping? HELL NO.

I lost so much faith in music in the 2 minutes I spent listening to this ear rape.

[UpperNinety]

ha, that's pretty pathetic.
plus, aren't shirts at hot topic like $20? i wonder how much they sold them for..
wait? They have merch at Hot Topic....thats a new low!

[Drown_The_City]

are they for real?

[holyshnikes]

it really is mind boggling to listen to this garbage, like there's literally nothing there, you know like even with the trashiest of trash i.e. 3OH!3 and the like you can be like ok i can see the catch and i can see what some people get excited about even if it can't really be justified as anything but passing entertainment, seriously though I just cannot figure out what could cause someone to find this music enjoyable in any possible way. EVER

[makeoutmags]

I've been brought to tears

hah
eh, this sort of thing happens more than you'd think on tours. bands run out of merch but still want to make it available to the kids at the show.

[You Won't Know]

What record label would actually put this out? I guess it has to be a joke, right? I don't understand how else this could even happen.

[Kamtin Mohager]

Perfect review. I guess scene kids needed their own ICP...

[just.Starla.]

Amazing review. I actually can't believe so many kids take this band seriously. I really wish this whole crap-core trend would stop.

[CarouselBoy]

I have to give you props, Scott. Not only for the great review, but for making it through the album without sticking pointy things in your ears. They are so horribly bad that I use it as the new form of "Rick-rolling". Readers beware!

hey great idea! Sounds like a good way to get this waste of a band shot down.

Um... sorry? I didn't mean to use my age as an excuse. To be honest, I'm really shy. I've had most of the same friends since the third grade, obviously before they got into bands like Brokencyde, and as much as the band sucks, I'm not going to just de-friend them because they're going through a lame phase. I do like my friends and we do have things in common, it's not like I'm just settling for them. I love my friends but not all the music they listen to.

sorry you had to reply to that comment. I knew what you meant when I read your original post and apparently this person either read it too fast or doesn't have good reading comprehension. Have a good day!

for as much ap.net hates this band, they sure do love posting anything they can... giving them more publicity...

No, it gives ap.net more publicity and lets more people be aware of how truly horrible that band with a very un-clever name is.

I'm not quite sure what Kevin was thinking letting this band on Warped Tour, and I'm not quite sure what that director was thinking when he made that vid that was linked to earlier in this thread. I mean he should feel shame for putting that POS together for that POS band

[TotalCollapse]

Haha nice review for a horrible band.

[muttley]

horrible "music."

Its almost as good as millionaires.

At this point, I'll just assume this is a fake profile for like, one of the members of brokeNCYDE or something, and proceed from that viewpoint:

Ohh! You got me! You so funny!!!!

Fake account.

[|adr3naLine|]

Hahaha hilarious review. As for the band, they basically encompass the things I hate about most hip hop/rap. There's no talent needed, just a catchy jingle that'll make you money, and if you can't make a catch jingle, then hell, make up a dance and sing about it.

please don't put line breaks in for no reason, and it really makes your post lose what credibility it could have. you can call me an uptight loser for this but this new trend of random line breaks is really starting to drive me nuts.

There's nothing "good" here. What's "funny" about rape? What's "funny" about talking like a 5 year old who doesn't understand puberty and calls his penis his "pee-pee?" What is funny about those things?

I'm not an "uptight loser," I just have ears, and still have my ability to hear out of them and distinguish between sounds that are pleasant and noise which is not.

This "music" falls into the latter.

This band wouldnt be hated on as much if it was just thought of as a joke,but Brokencyde actually trying to get money off of this complete crap is just unbelievable.Their music is so laughable and it obviously takes them about two seconds to write one "song".No one will remember who the heck they are one year from now.

I don't know, their lyrical content is very disturbing...even if the music was wonderful and they could actually deliver decent vocals, I'd still raise an eyebrow to it, but that's just me.

But you're completely right about that last part.

You argument makes absolutely no sense.
They're not making fun of being raped, they're not making jokes to try and forget, it's a couple of DUDES who are singing about RAPING WOMEN, and I'm sorry if you've beena victim of rape, but if you have, then I can't possibly see how you find that funny.
