IF any of you had the time to actually listen to come clean than you would realize that they do have some talent. I can't even see why you guys wouldn't like this band since the lead singer sounds SO much like nirvana. True enough life on display wasn't as great an album as i would have liked but damn is come clean rockin

    Ok I will openly admit, the music to their song Blurry is utterly sublime, unfortunately his 'woe is me' bull shit lyrics and cheesy videos featuring his son shit all over the credibility they desperately need.

    he's a rip off.

    I hate him for the same reason i hate godsmack. (blatent Staley rip off)

    and except for the song Voodoo, both those bands are absolutely horrible.

    They represent another "hair metal" phase in music.. which is to say an absolute low point.

    I don't care that he sounds like Kurt when he sings (and its only a slight resemblance anyways). I find the lyrics to be lame, the melodies to be 'run of the mill pop-rock and I can feel no connection with the music whatsoever. Puddle of Mud may technically be musicians but they sure are not artists.

    the bad idea or me befallen by it?

    now you are getting the front men confused. "mule face" would be nickelback, according to people on this board.

    id not call them under-rated, but they are a guilty pleasure of mine. i dont own any albums, but i like the 4 songs i know off the radio. more enjoyable than any staind or nickelback song i know. that 'she hates me' song cracks me up.

    I mean how does a band actually physically write a song as crap as that and actually NOT be joking, anyway?

    i actually like some of their songs, especially the ones that arent played on the radio - ones that are normal songs.

    fred durst likes them.

    i actually own 'life on display'. and to my enduring shame now it's public knowledge. i don't know what i was thinking, but i'm sure it seemed like a good idea at the time.
    hear my name

    WTF?? He sounds nothing like Kurt Cobain!! Sure he tries to sound like Kurt but that doesnt mean he does, for fuck sake im sick of all these lame ass bands with lead singers TRYING to sound like famous and influencial singers who actually had some talent, god first it was Creeds lead singer trying to sound like Vedder now its this moron trying to sound like Cobain!! As far as im Concerned there both as bad as eachother!
    With your bitch slap rappin' and your cocaine tongue you get nothing done!
