Awful youtube bands

[styckx]

Post em. We've all seen those awful videos of some random local garage band, or whatever covering some song in their living rooms or make shift "studios".

I can not get enough of these. I can't imagine the thought process of the people who post these awful songs/cover songs.

The 2nd one blows. But at least the first one is an effort. Young Asian girls trying to play the Pixies is also kinda hot.

[SatCam]

As far as that Digging the Grave cover goes, it's amazing how good miking and a little equalizing will go. All you can basically hear is the drums. They could be the best band in the world but if you can't make an honest attempt at recording your music it's not worth the listen.


Atleast that video reminded me how much I love Faith No More

The worst is all of those solo acoustic guitar versions that screw up every search. If I want to watch a boot video of an artist I like, I don't want to sort through dozens of untalented middle-age wannabes doing terrible versions.

Preach! Thanks to the likes of Nirvana Unplugged and AIC Unplugged anyone with an acoustic guitar and basic pitch control thinks they are something important in music. These people are nothing but a step above singing at a campfire w/ their friends.

They were just quick examples...not necessarily the worst of the worst.

Youtube was just added to blip.fm, but you don't get the screenshot or descriptions that indicate if something is a cover. One song I was looking for the other day had a dozen of these types of covers but only one "real" version. I finally gave up.

Ouch...i can totally respect the frustration in that.

Ha...your right...i think she's got some kinda accent, though, which is impressive in that i cant imagine how i would sound singing french, spanish, etc.....

But why on earth would anyone cover that shitty tune?

I disagree. music should be shared, even if it sucks. Its like Pete Seeger says "if you can't sing well, sing loud"

Wow, just wow. What a scumbag.


The singer in the cover of "Brick" actually has a good voice, i think the guitar just throws the entire thing off.

I'm overly critical of covers at times.

BTW one of your sigs in your rotation is a bad photobucket link. Showing the "Oops" photobucket message.

What's bad about the cover? Seems like a pretty spot on instrumental version of a dumbass song given that they seem like just a trio of kids messing aorund.

I think it's just a Photobucket error because I've checked all the links and they match the ones the site is providing.

This could only be posted here..... does anyone know this guy?
I would love to be his buddy.
