Ill Nino - "What Comes Around"


P.O.D. - "Boom"

never heard either of these songs, but the Ill Nino song sounds third rate

Did you make it to the bridge? That's where it differentiates itself from the pack a bit.

oh fuck yeah, the slow down campfire bongo scene. that's enough to change my vote

Yep. The verses suck, but I like the soaring chorus, and that Spanish bridge/interlude is so unexpected. Definitely better than that shit-ass P.O.D. song that I loved when I was a kid.

I wonder how many Nu songs include a part where someone screams "shut up." Seems like a pretty common trope at this point.

Probably should have went with “How Can I Live” for Ill Nino, since that was the only song of theirs getting airtime my way back in the day.

I’m obviously voting them over POD.

first time hearing either song and I kinda like Boom

Fuck it. I'm voting for POS-i-mean-POD for the same reason i voted for Bawitaba...cause it's catchy knuckle dragging fun.

Lotta dreadlocks in this match.

I've never heard or heard of Ill Nino, but I can dig that middle section. Vote for that.

as it stands now, would you say this is a dreadlock deadlock?

Aw yeah. Working on a song about it now:

"Nu metal mutha fuckas in a dreadlock deadlock
They ain't straight outta Compton -- they straight outta Bedrock"

The campfire bongo bit is my least favourite part of the Il Nino song, which I kind of liked up until then.

Anyway, that's my vote here.

Or how many Korn songs have a bridge that starts with, “GO!”

These songs are bad
