what??
who said anything about "nu-metal"? That shit sucks and so do you. I'm talking about Black Sabbath meets
Sex Pistols. Your band sounds like Hootie and the Blow fish meets Anal fisting week at a Gay pride parade. So guess what get over your overdubbed harmonies and other "rock cliche's" dickhead.

Re: what??
I'm guessing you're like what, 16 years old? I'm glad the internet makes you feel empowered kid, but you're just wasting your time typing on my site. Why aren't you busy making your own?
As for the music my band makes, if you don't like it, please feel free to fuck off. You're probably too busy thinking your band is the second fucking coming to actually work on things like "harmonies". As for overdubbing, do you even know what the fuck you're talking about? We perform our music live EXACTLY like you hear it.
Re: here's our link and your right I'm 16!!
I waited a few days before posting again in this thread, and thought about deleting it completely, as it's admittedly inane.
Instead, I'm going to offer you a bit of unsolicited advice. Why? Because you're only sixteen years old, and you seem as though you could use it.
1) Musicians [and artists in general] are better served by networking, not being dicks to strangers. Read any book about the business of music [on the unsigned/indie level] and you'll hear the term "networking" a lot. Networking is embodied by things like gig-swapping ["get me a gig in your town and I'll get you a gig in mine"], compilation CDs, multi-band shows, and even mailing list swapping [though I find that a questionable practice, as it feels like spam to me]. Networking can be an amazing thing. It's gotten me gigs in places like Boston and New York City, help in recording our album, and connections I haven't even tapped into yet.
Probably once a month I get emailed by a band from another region looking for a gig in my area. I've always done everything in my power to accomidate them. Sometimes that means getting them an opening slot on one of my gigs, sometimes just recommending venues and giving contact info. I never tell them they "suck" or otherwise insult them - that would be stupid. My point? By coming to my messageboard out of the blue and insulting me, you are doing the exact opposite. Nevermind that you're safely ensconsed in Califorinia - it's a small world.
2) If you represent something, don't shit on it. Your provided link lead me to a website called "teens for Jesus" and featured an interview with your band. What do you think your "T4J" pals would say if they knew you were going around the internet using profanity and insulting strangers? What would Jesus do? If you're not a "Teen for Jesus", then I'd suggest dissasociating from the group and creating your own website. you disrespect T4J by using their site and not properly representing it.
I am not even a christian and I can see this - you should too.
3) You're wasting my time and yours by spending it berating me or anyone else. Time is precious - use it to do things that mean something, even if it's just having fun. Play in your band, take up a hobby or do your freaking homework.
I've offered these bits O' wisdom because you're young and don't know better. I hope you'll take them to heart.
