Finally, a round where I don't just hand the vote to Godsmack for being up against Saliva or Puddle of Mudd or some shit.
Rob Zombie's little brother for the win. Classic tune from Tony Hawk's 2.

how is this better than voting a song for being more nu metal?

What a game. I need to find a PS1 for cheap on ebay immediately. The nostalgia is too much.

I submit that WWC is industrial and thus should immediately be disqualified.

Ehh, I think it’s a mix of industrial and Nu, just like Static-X

I LOVE "When Worlds Collide". A brilliantly goofy, maddeningly catchy tune

Hooray, I don't have to vote for Godsmack in this match!
There is absolutely nothing remarkable about "Straight Out of Line." I think I've heard it before, but I can't say with any certainty. It's very generic and I'm honestly kind of surprised that it was a single since it doesn't seem to have any hook or anything that sets it apart unlike, say, "Voodoo" or "Serenity."
"When Worlds Collide" is silly, bouncy fun in an absurd way. It takes the aesthetic focus of some of their contemporaries like Slipknot or Mushroomhead and tilts them sideways for a more sci-fi approach. Of course, it's hard not to see Powerman 5000 as a bargain bin version of White Zombie, but at least it's not straight up dull.
