Hollywood Undead Album: “Swan Songs”

I'm not a huge fan of hip-hop/rap so I get excited when I find something I can enjoy. These guys have the sarcastic edge and frivolity of ICP with the clever backhanded 'lyrics' that make me enjoy the Slim Shady. They add to this a solid musical base that really demonstrates these boys aren't just playin', there is some real musical aptitude here. I haven't been this excited about a band since I discovered the Skanking Pickles (RIP you beautiful jello heads)

This is the first cd i ever bought that i actually loved. Yes, their lyrics are a little dirty and degrading, but i still like them. I love the beat, and its very catchy.I went to one of their shows, and i would go again it was such a blast, and the guys are very down to earth. I hung out with them a little bit, the guys are very sweet and true to their fans. Everyone who went had a good time and was rockin out with the music to the point where i was just rockin out with funnyman in the middle of the crowd.

just found about their band this yr, and i support them all the way!

and to those who don't like them its cool and understanding, but you don't have to hate it, you may dislike it but they've gone from nowhere to something big, and ever bigger in the future.

not an easy thing to do

Growing up on Black Sabbath, I am still into very heavy metal (Asphyx, Bolt Thrower, etc.) and I can recognize outstanding bands. Saw Heart, The Boss, before anyone ever heard of them. I heard a sample from Hollywood Undead a few weeks ago on 98 KUPD Phoenix and made a mental note "this is a must own". Once available, I downloaded the entire explicit album and was not disappointed. Although not into Rap, this is good stuff! I believe a very distinct sound. Meant to be heard explicit format. I'm ready to pop a 40!

I took time out of my day to stop anyone from buying this bands cds. I gave them a shot but after listening through cds several times its just trash. I actually started to get mad listening to these thugs. Dont waste your money. You will be mad you did. Its just poor rap covered with poor rock music. All the cd talks about is drugs, drugs and more drugs. So if your a dope fiend then get it.

Not as silly as Limp Bizkit, not as hard-core as Dope, not as accessible as Linkin Park, but rather somewhat like all three of these groups with more "rap" tossed in. I bought it at a store advertising it as "metal" (right next to Slipknot and Guns n' Roses) but it is not. In fact, they are much more hip-hop oriented, though not particularly talented or original as far as the lyrics go. Not a bad album, with a couple of solid singles, but will appeal to younger and less experienced listeners. Be advised--"Parental Advisory" is for language, which is absolutley necessary.
