R1: The Red vs. Headstrong

[LoathedVermin72]

Chevelle - "The Red"


Trapt - "Headstrong"

[Ello Sailor]

The Chevelle song isn't bad, and the Trapt song has one of the stupidest choruses of all time.

Chevelle it is!

[EJ]

When all else fails, the vote goes to the more annoying, and seemingly unavoidable song from that era. Headstrong it is.

[LoathedVermin72]

I hated Headstrong with a passion when it came out. Now I think it’s a middling Nu/Post track.

The Red doesn’t do much for me these days but it still gets my vote.

[Jammer XCI]

Trapt was seriously one of the worst bands of that time, so bad.

This isn’t my favorite Chevelle song but it’s far superior to fucking Headstrong.

The red is pretty awesome still

[Brett]

"The Red" and "Headstrong" came out the same year, 2002, so why is it that the latter feels derivative of the former? I said in a prior round that I believe that Chevelle is a cut above many of their contemporaries, and while they still have better songs than this one, "Headstrong" sounds pretty silly in comparison.

[Birds in Hell]

These were both awful, I only managed 30 seconds or so of each.

I guess the Trapt song was worse, so Chevelle by default.

[Kevin Davis]

Oh man, I completely forgot about that Trapt song. So terrible. Vote for the other one, whatever it is.

[BurtReynolds]

That Headstrong chorus is forever etched in my head, and I hate it.
