The band has no opinion on it nor had anything to do with the post.
Though before you start with the internet warrior stuff...
I wasn't bashing anything as much as implying its a combination of genres. It's not really a defineable as a genre as there are so many mixtures and varying influences that it's hard to classify it as one particular thing.
And ANYBODY tryin' to make this a race issue...is a freakin' IDIOT!! Keep that $h!t outta my city...we love Sevendust here.. ppl of ALL colors and walks of life live here..and that racist $h!t don't fly here nor will you punk asses that practice that $h!t- you won't make it here.........
I've seen Sevendust EVERY time they come to Albuquerque...they freakin' kick you in the teeth!! From the moment they start playing..you are at their mercy. The best band out there...period. The radio (radio lol) can keep lady gaga and britney and fall out boy...all the $h!t on the radio today SUCKS! Listen to ANY Sevendust album..and hear true emotion..and with each member being excellent in talent at their respective instrument. Much respect.
ill tell you all summin..this band kicks ass.i have been listening to them for years and there live shit is just as good if not better...if u ever get a chance to see them,take the oppurtunity
wheteher or not they are huge rockstars or not they still make some kick pure rock that speaks to one's soul on a level them bitchy whiny nu-metalers never could
i guess that the meaning of the video is quite obvious.....they still make us ask questions...hahah.....Are you telling us that it reminds you of Drowning Pool????C'mon... i do appreciate them, but please check the timelime and the influence...so who reminds you of who???
SevenDust is a great example of a true Working Band the most commercialization they got was in 2001 for Animosity after that they slipped backed into the underground wich is great considering they helped alot of bands succeed (Kittie, Mudvayne, Disturbed, SystemofaDown, Incubus).
Can someone tell me exactly Lajon's role in Music Video? I get the first half: Dude meets his girlfriend, they make love, the dude is seen with other ladies, his girl gets pregnant, he's not interested, later he tries to apologise when the kid is older, but the girl don't wanna know...Now is Lajon meant to be the so called "Prodigal Son"? Sry if I'm kind of slow...
I'm pretty sure they are classified as nu metal, they are influenced by Metallica (heavy metal), Living Colour (Funk Metal), and Faith No More (Hardcore / Funk Metal)
However, there is much blues in them and Lajon's voice. They're like the blues of metal.
That would be BluesCore then. Kind of like RapCore where you have rock to a rap beat witch people rapping/singing over it (Hed P.E., P.O.D., Hollywood Undead, etc. etc.)
Sevendust has the perfect mix. This song is ok but love when they go hard but offset it with a nice mash of perfect vocals in chorus then go back hard. One very unique and amazing band
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
great band I just really dont like the singer, the drummers vocals are awesome. No offense but the singers style seems a little light for their genre of music.
thats so wrong and u know it! u'v got a really small library if you think sevendust is the only band thats made it throu from the 90's. oh and this is really gonna shit you, their music totally took a dive after animosity.. don't get me wrong love this band, but they got old and soft! still wish they would come and tour auz thou. no disrespect
some people are fucking stupid, a. the singer is welsh not jamacan b. this is no where near rap and c. some of the best bands have black singers, take killswitch engage for instance, howard is black and their a fuckin amazing band
Jimi the first rock musician? Rock was birthed around 1955 (depends on who you ask) and hendrix was late 60's.
Now...if you had said Chuck Berry...now that would actually be arguable. The fact is, just because he's black people are going to automatically assume rap...which is pathetic. there are a lot of great black musicians who aren't rappers. Hell....the birth of rock owes a great majority to black artists and the various music brought from Africa and R&B.
It goes against everything I am to join in such a pointless and stupid argument, but I will.
Stop arguing about how people do things, because of race. Does it happen? Of course it does. But if this argument was spawned by this video, then you must see that race has absolutely nothing to do with what's going on. If you can't see that, please go earn a Darwin Award and do the rest of us a favor.
