View Full Version : Hinder...2006's Answer to Hair Bands and Shitty Pop Acts

So I was listening to the radio (my first mistake) about a month ago when a new song called "Lips Of An Angel" came on...it began modestly enough, and went south from there.

*Cue generic acoustic guitar and tambourine*

Lyrics (and my subsequent commentary, complete with What he really means in italics.):

Honey why you calling me so late
It's kinda hard to talk right now
Honey why you crying is everything okay (He's trying to sound "sincere" here)
I gotta whisper cause I can't be too loud
Well, my girl's in the next room

(So, his last good piece of ass is calling him bawling because she misses him. And his response is I gotta be quiet, because my girlfriend will hear me talking to you and then I'm in deep shit...)

Sometimes I wish she was you (Wow...no wonder you want to be quiet...she'd probably beat the shit out of you for this line.)
I guess we never really moved on (In other words - We didn't fuck enough and we didn't have breakup sex. I still miss fucking you, in fact.)

*Chorus. Cue shitty guitar riffs and slow 4/4 drum beat*

It's really good to hear your voice saying my name
It sounds so sweet (Are you horny, too?)
Coming from the lips of an angel
Hearing those words it makes me weak (At least you swallowed.)
And I never wanna say goodbye
But girl you make it hard to be faithful
With the lips of an angel

(Is it just me, or does his voice sound a bit like a calf being sodomized with a fire hydrant?)

It's funny that you're calling me tonight
And yes I dreamt of you too (I have a boner right now.)
And does he know you're talking to me
Will it start a fight
No I don't think she has a clue (Seriously...what would it hurt to be fuck buddies??)
Well my girl's in the next room
Sometimes I wish she was you
I guess we never really moved on
(You were obviously the better lay.)

*Chorus.*

*Solo (barely).*

*Repeat chorus.* (Feeling queasy. Must...find...commode.)

Okay, this nauseating shit goes on for what seems to be an eternity and I hate every second of it. The music is weak, the vocals are horrid, and it's all about how these two can't seem to get enough of one another. Now this gets requested at every radio station in the tri-state area at least 75 fucking times a day. Are there that many hillbilly bitches missing their glory days when every mulleteer in the trailer park wanted to pump them dry? Do they just long to remember that one greaser that properly long-cocked them then hopped on his hog and rode out of town before nuptuals? Are there that many college skanks and high school whores aching for their last boyfriend/girlfriend? (Note - this doesn't really apply to one sex or another. Stupid doesn't discriminate, after all.)

Or (more likely) is the message in this heap of hair metal sludge simply lost on the masses of asses calling it in here in my neck of the woods? Hell, the video is on almost as often as song is requested on the radio.

To these half-wits enamored by this song enough to demand it all day long, I can only say: this isn't romantic! This is two people whispering sweet nothings to one another behind the respective backs of their current commited partners! And it's put to the worst fucking music I can possibly hear this side of "Honky Tonk Badonkadonk"! How are people so fucking stupid and shallow?!

Then I actually heard an interview from these redneck assholes this morning, all talking about drinking, partying, and fucking groupies. And I think to myself...these idiots are Spinal Tap without the talent or charisma! This is a joke! Where is Ashton Kutcher to tell me I'm being punk'd??

And then they actually have the gall to go off on other bands that might have a different message in their lyrics. "Whining" was the term I heard to set me off. God forbid anyone share some feelings in a song other than partying and banging sluts! It was enough to make me want to throw a brick at the TV.

These scumbags have two songs out right now. The first release is called "Get Stoned". (And please don't confuse this heap with Bob Dylan's song of the same name, which is a bit of comic genius.) It's basically about a relationship with some user skank who gets high and gives the guy shit and has angry grudge fuck-fests with him, with the most prevalent lyric in the song being "You wear me out". Sounds about right to me. I'm worn out just hearing the first few bars. Then of course there's the "ballad" I listed above. This shit is right on par with Britney Spears, R Kelly, boybands, new country and any other fucking garbage with no talent that I hate in a given moment.

Fuck Hinder. Fuck them with a lead pipe wrapped in razor wire and dipped in a boiling mix of lemon juice, vinegar, salt and alcohol.

Never heard of these dweebs until you mentioned them, jeo4. I guess that's a good thing for me. :)

I promise to avoid these lil' bitches like the fucking plague. :D

I have a friend, well, not really a friend, but a dumbass whore that I occasionally talk to, simply to make myself feel better about my life due to the fact that I'm not living hers, who listens to Hinder 24/7. She also talks about them constantly about how they are the most amazing band ever.

I actually have quit talking to her, but you catch my drift.

I saw Hinder last month and they were just "ok" to me. The lead singer is really flamboyant and it was kinda disurbing to watch him prance around on stage. But I do like their "Get Stoned" song.

I'm not a huge fan, but at least their live show was decent. Not like one of the many bands I've seen who sound great on CD and terrible live.

Yeah, whenever I hear "Lips of an Angel" I want to kill someone.

Hinder is Nickelback's bastard twin.:mad:

t might actually be better that way. Do the kids sound like they are taking a shit while they sing, like the lead singer does? I cant stand music like that. Hinder, Nickelback...countless others...they all sound like they are trying to squeeze a massive turd out while they sing.

The thing I hate most abou this song is the fact that people seem to think it's fucking romantic. It's not ROMANTIC! It's about some dickhead cheating on his lady!!
THAT'S NOT ROMANTIC!!!
...And yet, my cousin played it at her wedding...

....Fire away.

No actually it's about not getting over someone. If I remember correctly he sings..."sometimes I wish it was you" I don't hear anything in there related to intercourse.

I always say this when someone mentions this song being romantic too. This chick said its a very romantic song and it was her and her boyfriends song (the songs about getting a bootycall)

The singer irritates me the most in the video he does this little dance when hes singing and he starts spazing out with his arms (looks like hes on heroine)and when he talks to the girl on the phone his facial expressions. I wish I could kick him right in the face.

Count yourself lucky, Roy.

Hinders new release is one I like to consider their theme song...it's called "How Long Till This Goes Away?"

I've been asking myself that question for a while now.

Hahaha, I've never heard someone sum it up so well. Nicely put. But if your'e including Hinder you can't leave out Saliva and Nickleback. They're all in the same shit heap.

<3mekthx

Yes. The new Saliva song that's been frequenting my local rock station is FUCKING HORRIBLE.

I think Papa Roach sucked ever since they started copying every single rock movement with each new album. Which means always.

Okay the guy in that video is a complete fucking asshole faggot. I mean the singer is a little over enthused in the real video but that shit sells records believe me. Every girl I know loves that song, so the person not getting fucked is the moron in that stupid fucking video. Christ almighty I need a fucking shower after watching that shit.

Forgive me, Father
for I have sinned.

Heard it on favorite local morning radio show and downloaded it to my iPod.

It's Lips of an Angel sung by Kidz Bop Kids.

There's something so wrong yet so hilarious hearing a song about infidelity with squeaky clean kids singing chorus.

I may be going to Hell, but I'll be laughing my ass off for the trip.

The first time I heard of Hinder was when someone linked me to an interview with them. The lead was talking about how OK Go's dance videos/performances are 'art rock shit.' It came as no surprise to me when their song was just another Staind/Nickelback/Daughtry/Puddle of Mudd type song.

While overall Papa Roach is not a good act, I was surprised at their 2nd release (around '02 or '03 i think) called "Lovehatetragedy".....that one was good.

Getting Away With Murder was an okay album, their new one is awful though.

Yeah I mean it's really no surprise that these guys are pure shit. Look at 94 percent of "rock" music being made today - it's all pure shit (ESPECIALLY if it gets played on popular radio). Yeah I've heard Hinder back when I had to listen to the radio at work - and it's pure shit. But I mean, it's not like these guys are the only ones out there who fucking suck. They're just following what Staind and Nickelback and Creed all did, ya know. Who is the motherfucker giving these cunts record deals?!

heard the new Hinder clone hitting the radio now? They're called Saving Abel and their single is "Addicted". Fucking terrible.

lyric. "I'm addicted to the things you do - When you're going down on me in between the sheets."

Fuck.

Hinder's vocals remind me of what would happen if you beat up Joe Cocker right before he goes on stage.

I think Hinder/Daughtry/Nickleback is the most accessible, mainstream form of rock in the history of the universe. Every year we'll see newer and more generic bands like them. That's why I've: one, stopped listening to the radio for good; and two, gotten into a vast genre of music I know very little of.
