Yeah, I figured having every other word rhyme and then adding in a line about rhyming dictionaries would bring the lulz.
I can't wait to hear you attempt to growl this.

It comes down to selfishness, I think. I don't like to shareAxver said:I thought it'd take more to put you off!
LemonMelon said:
You may not have to wait long. I have some free time to record tomorrow.
But seriously, I have no clue how I'm going to make it through this without laughing hysterically.
Axver said:
This is going to be wonderfully hilarious.
Have you ever tried death growls before? I find I can't do a decent growl to save myself, but I can pull off black metal rasping.
LemonMelon said:
I'm going to have to turn the mic up pretty loud, lest I shred my throat instead of my guitar, but I can do a pretty OK growl, yes.
Growling "Maggot-sucking piece of shit" will be a highlight of my day, surely.
Axver said:So, I'm working on something for Screwtape's upload idea, and I love The Shadows. Their songs are so short that I've included 8 songs and used up less than 20 minutes of playtime!

And yes, while I do consider myself too good for American chocolate (the only two exceptions being Dove and Ghirardelli) I am definitely not too good for ex-Christian Arkansas goth metal.
LemonMelon said:
What other artists are you including?
More like Christian members claiming not to be a Christian band. But before they broke into the mainstream, they'd gotten popular on Christian radio. Then they got on MTV and went "What? No! We're not a Christian band! No, not at all!"Axver said:They're ex-Christian now?
Oh no, what are the poor fundie kids going to tell their parents now!
Axver said:
Ah, cool. I kill my throat too much trying to do proper growls. Apparently the proper way to do it doesn't damage your throat, but I can't do it. Can't say I'm too eager to learn either.
"Fucking fucked-up lymph nodes" is a great one too.

I don't really care. I like their music, it's more about hating your ex boyfriend and suffering from depression than about Jesus anyway.
Axver said:Disclaimer for LM and the Maj. and anybody else who may care: when I use "Jeebus", I'm not mocking Christianity per se or any of its genuine, head-screwed-on adherents (i.e. those of you here). Rather, I'm mocking the over-commercialised, watered-down, megachurched bullshit quasi-religion that Christianity all too often becomes.
In some ways, I use it to distinguish what I'm talking about. Jeebus is when I'm taking the piss out of fundies, Jesus is serious theological discussion and so forth.
Their early stuff is especially laden with religious imagery (but really no more than U2), that's sinced seemed to mostly taper off though.LemonMelon said:Evanescence was Christian at one point? I couldn't tell. Then again, I didn't exactly pay attention.
Their market is rebellious teens. The kind that use their allowance/daddy's credit card to buy dark clothes and makeup at Hot Topic (mass produced, overpriced goth/"punk" wear for teens who want to be different though it fails when everybody shops there so they all end up looking the same anyway), if they let themselves be labelled as Christian, that would be too acceptable, and thus they'd lose their fanbaseAxver said:Ahh, right.
Why are they even concerned about that, though? I mean, it's the US. Most people and their dog love Jeebus. I would have thought it'd be a selling point.

Also, wtf:
Okay, I'm assuming this goes to some quiz thingy:
But when I first saw it, I just saw the main text and went "whuh", I mean if I were a four member rock band, I think I'd notice
