check out this band I Am Abomination.

I Am Abomination ABSOLUTExclusive


i've known these guys for about 3-4 years now, and they deserve everything that's coming their way. bunch of rad dudes who know how to party right.

yeah theyre good, only thing i didnt really feel was the tone of the vocals. but then again i listen to alot of Metallica and ffdp type deeper, heavier, darker vocals. this sounded more panic at the disco-ey to me. but i loved the instrumentals. id probably listen to them. listen, i cant stress that enough, Listen.

17 seconds in and it's already crabcore.

The sound's good enough - unique stringwork for the genre. Lead singer's got to go. Total fashion issue (this is why I hate music videos showing bands... because the better the musician, the fuglier he is) The chubby guy in skinny pants and slip-on shoes with a mullet/turbo-rat-tail and... I dunno, is "downsy" the right word? Anyway, they could have saved some of the money from special effects and used it on clothes. I'd rather have gotten a straight mp3 or something... seeing these guys has ruined the music for me.

haha yeah the vocalist was probably 50+ pounds heavier a few years ago. the bassist doesn't tour with the band and neither does the lead guitarist (the other big dude). their stand-ins are much less food savvy.

another band to check out if you like traditional hardcore/punk is against the grain. these dudes are on a completely different level(down to earth, i guess? not cocky? i don't know?), and i've known most the dudes for 10 years.

lose the new found glory vocals and the band could make it somewhere.

the music was all written by the lead guitarist, including lyrics. the vocalist put his melodies to it.

little girls get wet. i think that's just a common goal.
