Fuel - "Shimmer"

Saliva - "Click Click Boom"

Oh my god I thought I had scrubbed my memory of Click Click Boom. That video is a nightmare.

Never heard "Click Click Boom" before. There is a short progression somewhere in the main riff that makes me think of Pearl Jam's "Blood". But this song is no good, so "Shimmer" wins by default.

yeah, I forgot all about Click Click Boom. What a horrible time that was.

I've also seen both of these bands live -- my claim that this music never did much for me is clearly blowing away.

I always liked the cheap shot that "Click Click Boom" took at the tortured childhood cliches of its genre, but I'm going for "Shimmer" -- not a bad little song, all told.

Shimmer's quite good. Gets my vote.

Also SALIVA IS A TERRIBLE BAND NAME

I'm never going to get tired of you posting this in different threads in this forum.

Definitely was a period between 15 and 17 years old when I thought I could win girls due to my serious moshing ability. I have never seen that video before, but its absolute ridiculousness puts it over the top for me.

I think “Click Click Boom” would be my pick for the worst song in the tournament. Just an utterly reprehensible piece of music in every way. I think these lyrics are the low point:

“My mom and dad weren’t perfect
But still you don’t hear no cryin’ ass bitchin’ from me
Like there seems to be
On everybody’s CD”

Fuck this song and fuck this band. Truly god awful.

Shimmer for not being fucking Saliva.

Referring to albums as CDs seems so quaint

I like the undulating bass lines on the verse of Saliva.

Post by **Jorge** » Mon June 25, 2018 3:35 pm

SALIVA IS THE BAND

I call everything a "record" to appease the vinyl heads and studio cats at the same time
