I was put through one of the most grueling things I’ve ever had to go through tonight. I had a call I had to go on and they were listening to this music that was just unbearable. It was some crappy nu metal crap that was just utter crap. I knew the moment I got there that it wasn’t gonna be a good time so I just said let’s get it over with. I ended up being there for way too long and I got to listen to probably half the CD. With each song that went by, I wanted to light scissors on fire with flammable gel and then jam those scissors into my ears then open the scissors as to shred my inner ear and leave no remnants of hearing capabilities. Instead of doing that, I just listened to each song and almost cried at how bad it all was.

There were a bunch of CD cases lying around, but I didn’t want to touch them because they weren’t mine. And I didn’t want to ask the person what I was listening to in case they asked me if I liked it, in which case I would have had to respond with the truth and let them know that I wanted to stick the aforementioned scissors in my ears. So much whining. So much crappy music. More whining accompanied by crappy music. Horrible lyrics. Did I mention horrible music? It could be the most pathetic attempt at music I have ever heard and I just wanted to know what band was forcing me to feel this angry at life. How could someone pay for this crap, let alone listen to it after they paid for it and realized it sucked? Finally the last song started skipping (how someone listen to this so much that it starts skipping is beyond me) and I quickly seized my opportunity to skip a song. Unfortunately, it went right back to the first song. Trapt – Headstrong.

Yes folks, I was able to recognize this song and I finally knew that the band I had been listening to the whole time was Trapt. I can’t believe it. I knew from Headstrong that they stunk, but I didn’t realize that the rest of their album could be that much worse. I would listen to country music… any artist… before I’d ever listen to Trapt again. I really feel the need to start a petition and send it to Warner Brothers. They are completely murdering music as we know it and they should be held accountable for what they’re doing. I’m just shocked that something like that can be created and actually sold to people and even more disappointed in mankind for actually purchasing it. I’m listening to Incubus right now and it sounds like the greatest music ever made. I don’t think any of us expected him to say that. I just thank the heavens for anything other than Trapt. And I just skipped Disturbed. I don’t think I can listen to anything remotely close to Trapt ever again. This certainly was a life changing experience.

What I’m listening to: Cake – I Will Survive
