I Voted for Kodos

[MAX!]

I don't know if you guys know about this band or not but I think they're really good. I found out about them when I was on Reel Big Fish's wikipedia because they have a song called "Wish I Was Aaron". Anyway, I got a few of their albums online and I like them. They do ska and some songs that aren't really ska. They're from Wisconsin I think and some of their best songs (in my opinion) are : "She Hates Ska", "Calc Lecture Girl", "Wish I was Aaron", "My Other Girlfriend Says I have to Leave You", "Wishful Thinking in Fourth Period", "Not Penis Cream", and "Turn the Radio On"

Every time I think of this band I think about how much they hate Matt for calling them sell outs.

Even if he was clearly right.

[MAX!]

I never heard any of this. That's weird cuz they have a couple songs where they mention Reel Big Fish. But I can see what Matt is talking about, their My New Obsession album is pretty bad and there's very little ska on it, seems like they sold out on that one.

[the unlucky platypus]

yeah…bunch of sell outs….i can't go anywhere around here without fucking hearing iv4k.

[MAX!]

really?
that's weird cuz i haven't seen anybody else mentioning them. I still really do like their older stuff. They're broken up now though, so the talk should die down.

[Desensitized]

By the way, I'm not talking about Matt Wong, I mean Matt from the old board………… Though it wouldn't surprise me if Matt Wong feels the same.

[MAX!]

oh ok. I'm somewhat new and I haven't done much in the forum lately so I don't know too much.

"We never really got the industry attention that we had been looking for when we recorded "My New Obsession". So it seemed like the right time to admit that we had tried really hard, and just come up short of what we'd been shooting for."

From their old myspace. They even admit what they were trying to do, it's just too bad it sucked.

Every ska band always tries to go into synth-pop punk or some shit to try to get more fans/attention. Yet it never works.

Matt Wixson is who I mean, btw.

The song isn't up on his Myspace anymore, but the song was how they abandoned their sound for mainstream acceptance.

Edit: The comments are hilarious, too.

[MAX!]

haha wow
is their anywhere to get that song?

[Desensitized]

You can probably contact him on his myspace and ask. I actually forgot about it until this thread came up.

[MAX!]

I might do that sometime cuz I'd like to hear the song. The comments about it were pretty funny.

[jrock241]

Does Matt ever come on this forum? Liked his music, until he sold out.

Just joking….. I never liked his music. :p

[jrock241]

Sorry about the double post. Is there no delete button? Only Edit?

[MAX!]

Yep, no deleting. it happens

[Desensitized]

Double posting is not rare.

[jrock241]

I have no problem with double posting as long as it's a new post, and not just hitting the "post" button too many times.

[Desensitized]

You can report your post and the admin will probably delete it.

I can't believe I posted so much in a thread about a band I don't care for. 😀

[jrock241]

A MOTM can't delete it?

I'm just trying to get you to post even more in the IV4K thread.

[Desensitized]

I'm not a mod, because Cheddar is a dick. :p

I'm sure I'd post 20 times in a Slipknot thread, and I fucking hate them more than anything.

[madamadam]

Holy fuck, you guys just solved the Mod problem: What if MOTM got made moderator for the month? – To do all the little, pointless stuff that Cheddar was too good for?

[Desensitized]

Then we'd have to consider who to pick more carefully.

[madamadam]

True…

[jrock241]

Huh? So the MOTM isn't even a moderatot?

WHy all this talk of DJ Cheddar? He didn't start this board did he? The ADMIN here isn't him either right?

[Desensitized]

DJ Cheddar was the first and only mod on this board. He went batshit (Just check the 'Final Idea' thread in the site feedback forum) after several people (Mostly Trev) poked him about his mod skills.

So he snapped and fled into the dark never to be seen again.

I have a piktur depicting the events as accurately as possible.

[MAX!]

It's like Trev is a comic book hero
like Superman, only way better

[Super Sonic]

Trev IS way better than Superman

[jrock241]

That was a good read, thanks to everybody involved.
