Saliva is an insanely bad band. Definitely voting Adema

Both of these songs were in Aggressive Inline.

Going with Adema, that’s Jonathan Davis’ step brother on vocals there. Awful band, but better than fucking Saliva.

I didn't think I'd be voting for a Saliva song, but then I heard that generic, soulless Adema shit.

Plus I kinda like his flabby redneck rocker aesthetic. It seems impossible to film him in a way that he doesn't look like a huge dork.

I think this may be the worst round so far, quality wise. These songs are all atrocious. For a music genre that was supposed to bring emotion back into heavy rock music, the songs in this round mostly sound like carefully designed product.

I guess "Your Disease". The bridge is kind of nice

I can't be bothered to actually listen to these, so I'm judging it purely on title and thumbnail. "Saliva" is disgustingly Nu, and the singer has numerous stupid rings, so they clinch it.

Saliva I guess. I can just see the A&R guys high fiving that they got a hit here.

A Bee-Gees reference in a nu-metal song feels pretty advanced to me. Vote for Saliva.

"Giving In" has some pretty interesting guitar tones throughout, but it is altogether an uninteresting song. I can definitely hear a bit of Jonathan Davis's influence in his step-brother's vocals.

I can't stand the shouting vocal style of Saliva's singer, especially in the verses of the song. The chorus and bridge are much more enjoyable from a musical perspective, though.

I don't have a clear preference here, so I think I'm going to go with Adema because I don't think I've heard that song before this tournament.

This match needs way more votes! I was planning on closing the polls tonight, but 13 votes isn’t nearly enough.

Nobody, and I mean nobody, fondly remembers the works of Adema and Saliva.

I don’t even think the members of Adema and Saliva do.

Giving in: I hate the singing and the song is very generic and predictable and boring in general. 1:37.

Your Dieases: Nope. :17.

Giving in i guess
