I still don't know that I'm 100% on board with Smooth Criminal being in this tournament. But since it is, it wins! Easily the better of the two.

The AAF frontman is so hilariously, obnoxiously Y2K in that video. The bared teeth, the tongue swirling. Pure skater-punk-brat ridiculousness. It's almost charming?

I think I like "I'm with Stupid" even more than "Push It". What a killer track. Tons of unusual touches in there; the vocals seem to constantly move and change in unexpected ways, and stop in unexpected places. I love those little growls he uses to end lines.

I like the video too. The combination of the dance move, camera movement, and chugging music at 0:34 is pretty awesome. Kinda reminds me of the club scene near the beginning of Bad Boys II.

Voting Static-X without question

I remember AAF was signing autographs at the warped tour I went to

Signing autographs meaning sitting under a tent waiting for a fan to come up to them

Static X for the win

Quote from my buddy when I forced him to listen to I’m With Stupid after Wayne died: “I really like this, but I really don’t like that I like this”.

I've posted a link to here on Facebook's Nu Metal Shitposting group every time a new round goes up.

I've also been urging my buddy Dacko to join, since he's the guy who had me meet him and Wes Borland in an alleyway and genuinely thinks Limp Bizkit is one of the greatest bands of all time. He'd get those Bizkit Boyz numbers up.

Right now I'm imagining a gang of bikers beating the crap out of all the guys in those bands

Spotify keeps recommending that stupid cover to me and I hate it so much. Static X easy.
