It was a 30 second commercial that included about 15 seconds worth of descipherable music. Match that up against the 6+ years I've heard nerds rage over this band all over the internet (anyone who remembers Makeoutclub should remember this) causing me to assume by default that it sucked.

Assumptions confirmed.

they have some good stuff. the comercial was probably the newer stuff that I can't take

i called that band gay in front of a gay person once and he got offended.

yet it struck you so deeply that you felt the need to make a thread about it

the name alone should have been a red flag that it was going to suck.

they have some good older lyrics.

I like the song 'Deathcab For Cutie'. Unless the band did a remake of the song itself, in which case I hate it.

aaron got me into this band..

I've known about this band for let's say 6 years. That's 189341556 seconds. I've spent 189,341,556 seconds regarding this band as stupid without ever hearing them and it only too 30 seconds to figure out I was right. There's probably a lesson in that.

yeah, if it's not bulldoze or warzone, you aren't interested... er.. well... unless it's slayer. all hardcore kids are allowed to like slayer.

i like death cab.

of course you do. you're the grand marshall of the annual hot topic didlo parade.

I remember when I got to be GM for that event. good times.

oh really!?! did you see me there?

he was crowned queen that year.

lucky kid.

I think we can all agree that no band, nay, nothing audible whatsoever will ever be as bad as Hot Hot Heat.
