Recently I downloaded the newest Papa Roach CD off of an FTP of a friends of mine (purely to increase the number MP3s I have, I SWEAR) and I was VERY surprised to find that the last song is "Gouge Away." I just heard it a few seconds ago so I'm too shocked to give a reaction. |

The music is pretty much identical (apart from the naff halftime bit) just a little a heavier. The vocals..ahahah..funny.. |

I didn't think they done a bad job at all, its pretty much a carbon copy. The vocals are never gonna be perfect but he certainly has a half decent go at it.

I heard it, and I thought...for a shit band covering an excellent band, it wasn't bad. At least I can say that they didn't butcher it...and that they didn't cover "Where Is My Mind?" |

Awhile back, I did a review of every band to cover Gouge Away in a studio version (about 5 or 6 have). Needless to say I gave most of them F's because I'm an asshole |

Vomit in terror, my friend, vomit in terror. It's offensive that these people who know little/nothing about music, but everything about commercialization think they are worthy to cover such a song. At least FB gets royalties and such, I hope. |

Papa Roach are horrid. Crap...that Last Resort song makes me laugh and cry at the same time, it's so pathetic that they try to look so angry and hardcore in their super clean all-black outfits. But I listened to the Gouge Away cover, and I must say it's not bad. They don't butcher it at all...they stay very true to the original, and for that I must applaud them. They could have really fucked it up and made it super lame, but it wasn't. They still suck cock though. |

i used to consider papa roach a fave band of mine now i just dont listen any more. i heard a 30 second sample on walmart.com and thought that that 30 seconds sounded exactly like the pixies musically. its so similar that instead of just fine tuning they probably ran out and stole all the equipement and gil to make it!
i thank them for not going and rubbishing it and changing lyrics to suit their 'steal some pills gotta commit suicide' style but to make it sound so similar musically, wouldnt it be better for them to just stick a note in the scribe asking their fans to go out and buy doolittle or something?!
;D |
