Total time killer for those of you who like to lol at all the local "talent". I went to the link:
http://dmcontests.upickem.net/engine/De ... stid=16604

-and viewed all the contestants for the Battle for Lazerfest or whatever...and it has to be funnier that last year's participants. A few things struck me after reading the short descriptions. 1: Someone needs to count how many bands use "high energy" in describing themselves. I lost count after 7. 2: Alot of these bios say they've been around for 3 years or more but, yet they all have the shittest band promo pics of themselves playing in some po-dunk bar (note: I forgot the band but they photoshopped their band name behind themselves playing to look like they had a fancy banner - under a glowing bud sign. 3: Who the fuck are most of these jokers? I only recognized about 5 (out of 39). I have yet to listen to any of them but Im sure there are some priceless gems in this crop.

515crew mission: Post any song links, youtubes, or pics of these future stars of Iowa to spread the lolz...... or not. Again, just a time killer.
Happy hunting - The Beaver

so cover bands count? where's the slipknot cover band then? wtf!

[elliot]

I couldn't make it through all 39 bands. Just way too depressing.

I absolutely cannot fucking stand bands that are obviously not popular or successful, but they have those huge bios where all they're doing is inflating their "accomplishments" and writing a big load of bullshit. When a band has something like that on their page, it's a good indicator of their motivation for playing music: to get big and look important. They don't actually love being in a band for the simple pleasure of being in a band with their friends. It's all just a popularity contest for them.

RIFFS THAT IGNITE!!!

With charged lyrics that challenge the status quo and provoke thought, riffs that ignite, and solos that engage the soul, Havokkrier delivers a musical feast to the metal masses.

[ilikehorses]

im just amazed i made it through all the bands.

on the opposite of what elliot was saying, i enjoy bands whose description of themselves is basically just their member listing.

and i LOVE the photos.

this is the best thing i've seen in a long time.

[Bullet Tooth]

im not going to even bother looking at that site. all their names and music sucks, i dont even have to see it.

[Big Fat Retard]

The only two bands on the list that are worth a shit are Superchief and the KISS tribute band. I've seen Superchief and they kick ass. The rest of them bands can go do an in-store at Hot Topic.

[inx515xhell]

supercheif is legit.

[DARKBASS]

speak o' the devil.

You know you voted for SHATTER!!!!!

[Thom]

I like doomsday crush.


Only a totally serious note, bleedchain deserves to win.

The Boston Hell Mask is an eternal concept, comprised by different mortal beings at fluctuating intervals of time. The Boston Hell Mask is passed from collective mind to collective mind until it is permanently ingrained in the fabric of the All forever.

[DARKBASS]

superchief, bleedchain and havokkrier are legit as hell.

[elliot]

I'm pretty sure Boston Hellmask is mostly members of Mindrite, and it's sort of a joke band, but not really. I dunno. Those guys think their jokes are funny, I guess.

[Bullet Tooth]

superchief, bleedchain and havokkrier are legit as hell.

not possible.

I almost forgot about Calous. I dig them guys. Not only do they kick ass, but they are good dudes. You can see them, Hallowed Hysteria and us for free at the Birdland Park shelter at 3 pm as part of the Global Marijuana March after party. The rally takes place at the Capitol at High Noon until 2pm.

[Shane]

Lol, Hallowed Hysteria. Fucking shitheads.

[Churro]

Hallowed Hysteria. I'm in love with that band. Jordan Neal fucking shreds so well, and their drummer is far superior to me.

Fixed

No, fuck Calous forever. Those dudes are shitty and were loading in their equipment WHILE my old band was playing (walking in front of me while I'm doing vocals mid song and leaving their equipment right there) and I found it a bit disrespectful...

Hallowed Hysteria hates us too because kids were moshing and almost hit someone.

the bassist from calous once told me over a stupid online fight that he would rape my daughter. still salty about that one.

i had to grab one of the guys that travels with hallowed hysteria cause he was trying to start fights because kids were moshing. he said it was because his kid almost got hit but his kid was on the stage like 10 feet away. who the fuck brings their kid into a mosh pit anyway?

[tylerjames515]

Haha, wow. That's fucked up Zach. One of the Hallowed Hysteria guys messaged us talking shit and saying we'd never be able to play John's memorial show again because of it, that we only 'moshed to start fights' and a bunch of shit.
