Agreed. I love the other two Static-X songs in the tournament but this one sounds very bland to my ears.

"Movies" is really nice. It's very Y2K and it makes me feel warm and happy.

AAF is kind of a weird band that walks a line between pop punk and Nu Metal, and it seems like they could be classified as both or neither just as easily.

yeah agreed. sometimes they feel like nu metal, and sometimes they feel like blink-182

i only know this one and their Smooth Criminal cover, but it seemed like they at least had a sense of humor compared to others in their genre

I'm voting for Static X because they're 100% nu metal and AAF is pop punk.

You guys fucked up on the Mudvayne round then.

And this is where Static X gets really boring and same-sounding, but even this beats fucking Alien Ant Farm.

AAF. The one song of theirs that I have on my iPod. I hate the Smooth Criminal cover almost as much as the original.
