"Voodoo" is an unusual song, especially for a popular single. It's essentially all rhythm section, and it's guided pretty much entirely by the vocal melody. I'll vote for that one. Papa Roach is baaaaaaaaad

Just haven't heard it in a while, I guess. Now I'm gonna think about it the next time I'm giving up on something

Once again Godsmack is collecting my vote for not being the other band in the poll. Papa Roach is right down there with the worst of nu-metal.

Voodoo is a ripoff of Angry Chair.

I can't believe these guys went through several drafts of a song that featured the line "don't give a fuck if I cut my arm bleeding" and thought it was good

They sound so stoked up and pumped to commit suicide.

"Chances are DYNAMITE! Mutilation OUT OF SIGHT! I'm contemplating SUICIDE!!!" *chugs a Monster, throws up the horns and does the ol' asphyx-wank*

How can you not vote for Last Resort? This is another one of those inescapable, ear grating bad nu metal songs from that era. Easy choice here.

I like the harmonies in "Voodoo" -- they're definitely taking the Staley/Cantrell baton and running with it here.

I liked that Papa Roach song at the time, in the way that teenagers like a lot of next-big-thing junk when they're oblivious to how ridiculous it will sound in ten years time. And man, does this ever sound ridiculous now. Waste of a pretty decent riff.

Vote for "Voodoo."
