Welcome to Whack Brackets, the podcastthat is still trying to understand how Fred
Durst is allowed to pack a chainsawand openly threatened people without doing hard time.
I'm your host, Mike, andon this episode of the podcast,
we are going to bracket off newmetal bands with oddly enough guys who are
into spy movies and Star Trek.But you know what, at one point
(00:22):
in most of our lives, wewere all into bad music and this fits
the bill. We are talking toyou from the Spyhards podcast, Agent Scott
and Agent Cam. And Agent Scottlooks like he's recording from the Sun today,
but so we'll start with him incase he's actually going to die.
First, how are you doing,Agent Scott? Are you alive over there?
I'm burning up in here. That'sjust with a passion to talk about
(00:45):
Lincoln Park, of course, Sohow are you doing? Cam? I'm
downloading the shock Wave for all theladies in the cave to get their groove
on. I'm doing great. I'msummoning up my Fred Durst poetry that i've
you know, memorized from the manyyears of listening to new metal. But
I'm very excited to talk about allmanner of new metal bands because this was
(01:08):
my era for sure. Yeah,well, I will warn you you mess
with limb Biscuit. You can't messwith limp Biscuit because they get it on
every day and every night. Justbe aware, be afraid, be very
afraid, my friend. But beforewe move on with the podcast, I
will tell people what I do overhere on the regular at the Whack Brackets
(01:30):
Podcast. I am asking the burningquestions you never knew you wanted answered until
we asked them. We will bringon fellow podcasters and friends of the show,
such as the Agents Cam and theAgent Scott, and we will brack
it off similar contestant choosing Irreverend Evertchanging questions. So if you are ready
to brack it off new metal bands, I'm ready to deal. We ready
to go. Yeah, okay,first question, we are going to pit
(01:55):
the legendary limb Biscuit versus Corn alsolegendary, arguably more legendary. Probably which
one of these two bands is morelikely to be reprimanded by the dean at
your college graduation? Who do youhave, Agent Cam? Okay, So
now I've got to think of likethe mentalities of these two bands. I
feel like Corn wore the like outsiderkind of look, but like, were
(02:20):
they really that bad at guys?Jonathan Davis seems like quite a sensitive soul
type, whereas when I look atLimp Biscuit, Fred Durst seems like a
hellion and not in like the waysthat not even like the fun you know
kind of way. More is likethis guy's kind of a jerk. And
I've seen the man in concert.I remember following this era and fred Durst
(02:42):
seems really obnoxious in a lot ofways. It was always like that was
the biggest issue I think for andI was a fan of Limp Biscuit for
several years. It was tough sometimesto be a fan because of fred Durst,
and I think that he would bethe one that would be running a
foul of the pesky Dean and causinga lot of problems. I think the
Corn guys were just kind of alittle too low key, all right,
(03:05):
what do you think, Scott see? I think Corn would have more trouble
just because they would be somewhat indecipherable, especially if they had to make a
commencement speech or something, and that'swhy the Dean would be on their ass
because you know, Limp Biscuit wouldbe wrapping, you'd kind of get it.
But then Corn walks up and they'relike, but the map and the
guys the Dean's like, what areyou doing? Get off the stage please?
(03:30):
And if the speech just ends withgo, that would be really confusing
at the end of the speech.Really what I mean? I guess,
you know what, if Corn aredoing the song Freak on a leash,
maybe that's a sign of their trueintentions as well. I mean, these
guys, you got to keep themon the leash because what happens when they're
off. That's what the dean hesuspects things. But on the flip side,
(03:54):
Limp Biscuit, they just want tobreak stuff. Yeah, no one
wants breaking stuff on the campus.Yeah. Well, the thing about Corn
Jonathan Davis, come to find out, that's a really weird dude. Oh
yeah, yeah. He collects Ithink mass murder or memorabilia. I think
he went on to be a mortician. He's kind of an odd bird,
(04:15):
but he doesn't strike me as beingtoo dangerous or stupid. I guess I
don't know, And Dan know what, I take that back. I actually
heard a story where he was onAlex Jones and anybody that's on Alex Jones
instantly. Again, we will notpreach many politics, but Alex Jones has
formally come out and said he istotally entertainment, even though he is totally
a lying to people in not entertainment. He says, if anybody believes me,
(04:36):
they're fucking stupid, and they are. That's beside the point. So
Alex Jones had on Jonathan Davis fromLimp bit or from Corn and he went
on and said Alex Jones type thing. So I guess he could get back
there and say some really ranting politicalstuff like fuck you your liberal Nazis and
shit like that. Now that beingsaid, Limp Biscuit, we've discussed already
(04:59):
that, at least on the surface, Fred Durst likes to pack chainsaws.
He also has admittedly talked about stickingcookies in his rectum. And he's dressed
in a T shirt all the time, so usually kind of a comment of
the college graduation you want to looka little nicer. So he's dressed in
a T shirt. The only guyin the audience wearing a red hat that's
(05:21):
not a Maga hat. West Borland'sgonna be standing around looking like a praying
man is dressed up like an astronautin a two two or some bullshit.
I just get the impression that Cornfor all of their faults or all of
their eccentric keys, and said that'snot a word. I'm speaking like a
fucking West Virginia hill Bill for alltheir accentritis, but for all their nuances,
(05:45):
we will say, Oh, theydon't strike me as probably causing too
much trouble. Whereas limb Biscuit,you know, when you go in which
you're gonna get limp Biscuit, they'regonna be every time and somebody rocks across
the stage. Fred Durst gonna belike, yeah, so yeah, I
think he's gonna be like, sir, you need to be quiet as a
students or walking across the stage,and it's like you can't bust wood limp
(06:05):
biscuit. You know. Of course, then poor Deane's gonna ask why it's
like because we get it on everyday and every night you're gonna think about
Fred Dust. He's the guy whothought he could cover George Michael's faith.
He kind of did, though itwasn't bad just because you did it doesn't
mean you did it, do youknow what I mean? Think? I
don't know. I thought that wasactually a pretty catchy cover. I think
(06:27):
I'll stick to George Michael thing.I think it's there behind blue Eyes that's
far more objectionable. That one's reallybad. I'm not even aware of that.
It was like maybe the two thousand, probably on two thousand and three
or something to that. Here's thething too, a real world point,
I think, to maybe settle thisargument, possibly both Corn and Limp Biscuit
(06:48):
played Woodstock ninety nine. As weknow, Woodstock ninety nine did not end
well. There was fires, therewas some rioting behavior, which band was
blamed for helping incite those problems.It was Limp Biscuit. Yeah, mmmm
(07:10):
yeah, I think I'm on board. I think Corner kind of a kind
of nice boys. Maybe. Ithink they kind of Mama's Boys a little
bit nice enough. They have issuesbecause you know, and that's actually an
album reference as well. They dohave the album issues, but um,
you know, their their backstory.There's some rough years for the Corn guys,
(07:30):
but it seemed like it was moreum self inflicted harm versus outward harm.
So they may have they may needlike the the you know, university
or a college counselor, but Idon't think they're causing the widespread issues that
limp Biscuit would. I would loveto hear Agent Scott because it sounds like
he could do some corn imitations.There. Can you do the thing in
(07:53):
the middle of freak on the leashwhere he sounds like it's like redneck beat
boxing or whatever. I did itearlier, I'm not doing it again.
And yeah, is that what youdid? I couldn't remember what I thought,
did the boom or whatever? Iokay, no, I think you
know what, For some reason,I thought you were just doing the I
think you shocked me with that.I think you were doing it. I
think I think you expect I expectedyou to do the whole, like,
(08:16):
uh, why are you gonna wearyour full armory? Yeah? Okay,
but yeah, you actually did theYou actually did the full You went all
in on the corn. So Ilove it. So you have to you
have to you do it. They'renot like Limbiscuit. They don't do it
every day and every night, butcorn do go hard. Well, that's
the thing about corn is that limpBiscuit does it too. Often. Probably
(08:37):
if Limp Biscuit would actually not doit so much, maybe they would be
a better band. But they're gettingit on every day and every night.
Corn knows when to rest, andthey bring their a game when they actually
play. Well. They do dreamabout sex all day, yeah, all
day long. Yeah, they actuallyhave shoes named after him. I didn't
even know that, so I've beentold, but I'm gonna I'm gonna go
with Limp Biscuit. I think it'sgonna get my vote. I remember seeing
(09:01):
m lim biscuitting concert in I thinkit was State, Yeah, it was.
It was a Metallica's summer Sanitarium tour. They were the co headliner and
they'd been booed off stage at oneof the stops shortly before hours, and
I remember they came out and peoplewere like pelting them with stuff and booing
them, and there were signs upall over the place, and I remember
(09:22):
Fred Durst goes, if you're gonnahit me, hit me in the face.
And I've never forgotten that. Thatstuck in my head. That was
like fifteen years ago, and Iwill never ever forget it for the rest
of my life. We would haveliked to Fred, But unfortunately not all
of us are that good at throwingthings long distances to hit your small ugly
(09:45):
as. So it does appear limBiscuit is going to go into the final
round against the winner of this question. Which one of these two bands?
Would you'd be more disturbed to findout that you're sixty four year old?
Surgeon listens to why not sixty five? I don't know in the middle of
a Beatles song. Now Scott hasinspired me. Would it be Lincoln Park
or would it be Slipknot? Andsince we start out with Cam last time,
(10:07):
let's start out with Scott. Whodo you have? Well, you've
got to think about what you wantfrom a surgeon. Okay, you want
steady hands, a focused mind.I don't think someone jamming out into Slipknot
and they're many drummers and percussionists alongmy body if he's chopping me up is
exactly what I want when a surgeon'sworking on me. So maybe something a
(10:30):
bit softer like Lincoln Park. Maybethey could do a little scraps like a
Wicked Wiki on my on me whenthey're performing surgery. But part from that,
I think i'd rather have Lincoln Parkyou know what, I'm going to
interject you. I'm going to makeCam answer this because I'm going to disagree,
And I tell you what for thesimple lines, For the simple fact
that Lincoln Park says this line intheir song. I tried so hard and
got so far, but in theend it doesn't even matter. That's not
(10:54):
the kind of attitude you want fromyour surgeon. It's just not okay.
So at that point, Install,I'm thinking, Lincoln Park, Oh,
what do you have, Agent Scott, I'm gonna jump in if you're gonna
throw like lyrics back at the serge, Oh, I'm definitely at the lyrics
at this Do you want the surgeonwho thinks people equal shit to operate on
you? I've got a few others. What about I want to slit your
(11:16):
throat and f the wound? Thatone? Um? Hm? Also is
it cut, cut, cut meup, and f f me up.
Um. Splitting the throat and FFingthe wound. From what I understand,
possibly from some of the people inmy neighborhood, that could possibly be a
COVID cure instead of actually getting thesevaccines to put microchips in you. Hopefully,
(11:39):
if I'm getting a track eotomy.That is not how I want it
to go on a way to dieeither. Oh my god, that's the
last thing I see. Um uh, autopsy's gonna read how did he die?
Cut up and sex performed in openwound. I'm just trying to think
here, Okay, so surgeon hadherpes added to malaise. Now you're really
(12:03):
sick. Yeah, yeah, that'sthat's what took it over the bar.
That was too far, That wasone too far. Yeah, okay,
I'm trying to like commit this ina different direction. Lincoln Park is a
tougher one to grapple with because I'mlike, okay, like it's fairly inoffensive.
I don't know if there's a lotabout Lincoln Park that's gonna make me
feel one way or the other,Like if they're listening to, like even
(12:24):
some of the slower Lincoln Park songs, what do I care? And not
only that, here's the thing anotherthing I hate about Lincoln Park, And
then I'll ask you one question aboutSlipno before we decide. The thing about
Lincoln Park I hate is they alwaysfelt like the worst derivative, kind of
like the cheesiest, boiled down versionof rage against the machine. Okay,
(12:46):
because they wanted to sound deep,but they didn't want to have any edge,
so it was kind of like,okay, and then we need a
rapper. So is Zach de Larrochatoo much? Spike sare you? You
know? Here has some Fort Minorinstead, you know? And so to
me, they're like, yeah,as far as I would consider the ten
percent rage, twenty percent shit,fifteen percent worried about having a hit and
(13:09):
whatever the fucking else Fort Minor songsays, if you guys know what I'm
talking about, So that's it's aderivative work of even their fort Minor is
the derivative of the derivative of LincolnPark. So anyway, yeah, too
many derivatives, okay. And Iwant a surgeon who's there because he wants
to be, not because he sawhis dad be a surgeon. He's like,
I'd like to do that, andit's like he's just half asking it
(13:31):
because he knows it makes a lotof money, you know. I think
slip knots in the game slip knotis so in the game Burger King copied
them. Do you guys remember thisshit? You not? There was a
metal I guess I don't know whatyou would call it, but Burger King
came out with a band check itout called Cockrock coq ROQ and they looked
(13:52):
a lot like slip Knot. Ithink Slipknot even sued them, and they
were selling chicken fries. What I'mnot making this up. Go check out
Burger King cock Rock coq RQ afterthis episode's over. I don't know that
that came across the border into Canadahere. I don't recall that at all.
That's amazing though. Yeah, acrossthe Atlantic. Not only cock rock,
(14:15):
I also believe put out like foursongs. I think, I bet
you can find them. Yeah,I'm pretty sure were they like heavy metal?
You know what. It's something you'regonna have to experience for yourself,
is all I'm gonna say. I'mgonna go cock rock. Yeah, say
they've got stuff here called bob yourhead. Uh, they've got chicken fries
puns. So is it like,oh yeah, it's it's totally tight or
(14:37):
something like that. It's it's burgerKing. Burger King put them up to
this. I'm pretty sure this wasn'ta band imitating Slipknot because they wanted to
and rapping about Burger King chicken fries. This was a band that was commissioned
by Burger King to wrap about saidchicken fries. That's incredible. I feel
like before slip run away with this. Oh you sent a video, Oh
(14:58):
I did? You can check itout real quick if you gotta at least
check it out for a second.If you got just but just give yourself.
I can check it out. SoI've got to know the verdict.
You guys look confused and days Iquite derivative. Um uh, it's a
good little hook. I guess they'rethey're actually musicians, which is nice.
(15:22):
Um what what? What? Whatif? I think they were getting out
of this? Are they talking themen in Black two crowd? Oh god,
I know that's about the lowest formof insult you can throw. Yeah,
we definitely made chapter Burgking and Highepisode. Ah okay, okay,
(15:48):
okay, okay, Sorry to takeit off the rails, but if you
had, I thought hopefully I wasgoing to get a cock rock discussion going
on here. And at least nowyou've seen cock rock. I thought I
had seen cock rock, but nowI definitely have seen and I'll never unsee
it. Yeah, I know,And it's it's kind of beautiful and it's
in it's oddity. I think thewinner of Lincoln Park versus slip Knot is
(16:11):
cock rock. I'll let him goon to the next round, and this
is my show. I'll do whateverI want. What cock to go on?
That would actually disturb me more ifwe add cock rock. If I
knew my surgeon was listening to cockRock the band well he was, Yeah,
I'd go with that. The questionis who would be Who would you
be more disturbed to find out?Yeah, I definitely will disturbed to find
(16:33):
out cock rock was playing in definitelyin the surgery. I mean yeah,
you know, like they say thatthere's a parallel between a lot of heavy
metal fans also listened to classical musicfor some reason. There's some bit of
connection there. So if you tellme my surgeon listens to slip Knot or
Lincoln Park, I go, okay, makes sense, Like maybe he's into
classical music as well, Like maybethere's a diversity of choices here. If
(16:57):
he's listened to cock rock, I'mlike, this man is out of his
mind. Yeah, yeah, thisguy's not in a good place, Like
why is he listening to like badmusic from like Burger King commercials, Like
that's insane, and there's only likefour songs, which means that he probably
listens to them regularly. He's probablyjust got them on repeat. I feel
sorry for the nurses. Oh mygod, if we got a sign today,
(17:21):
Okay, yeah, yeah, let'stake a leg away. Oh doctor
Smith? Oh no, cock rockguy. Yeah, Like the head surgeons,
like, I just don't understand whythe nurses keep quitting after working here
for two weeks and like they gotrocked. It never really raised a concern
to me that perhaps my surgeon iswearing like a slipnot costume. Yea,
(17:44):
what, but I feel somewhat considerablymore concerned that he's probably wearing a cock
rock costume because someone who's listening tocock rock is probably wearing the costume because
clearly they've lost their mind. Youknow what, I'm fine, I'll let
Cockrot go onto the next round.Well we'll fuck uh Slipknot and m Lincoln
(18:04):
Park all the hell. We'll justlet cock Rock go in. So yeah,
yeah, cock Rock gonna go onthe final round late addition to this
whack bracket. It's happened before.I believe it'll happen again. So it
just happens. He's made a comebackthat no one thought they would. I
wonder what those guys are doing now. Now I'm gonna have to do a
deep dive after this episode and postfollow ups on Twitter. They're probably working
(18:26):
at Burger King. I can't waitfor the return of the Rooster tour.
Oh. I guarantee your ass.At least one of those guys was the
son of an executive at Burger King. Oh yeah, and and like failed
son, it's the son who's likereally screwing up, and he's like,
I know I can at least gethim to do this. Yeah, And
(18:48):
then he's like, well, here'sthe thing. Then I can pay him.
This is probably a tax scame,okay, And he's like, okay,
now, how can I have atax shelter for my money? Well,
if I give him, I'm he'sgonna be taxed at a little rate
than me. So I'll give himthis and a whole bunch of stock options
in Burger King, and then thatway I don't have to pay him to
live out in the garage anymore.So Cockrock guys, sorry to insult you,
(19:10):
but you win or lose and yougo onto the next round unexpectedly.
Sorry, but this is the waywe play the whack rackets. So final
question about the only band you wouldconsider to be as ridiculous as cock Rock
Limp Biscuit going up against Cockrock,with this final question being which one of
(19:30):
these two bands writes a better themesong for the Summer Olympics. We don't
know much about cock Rock, butwe know they are derivative work of Slip
nine and we also know they writebetter riffs than you would expect. So
Cam, which would it be?Boy, It's hard to not say cock
(19:53):
Rock because it's like, these arepeople that write jingles for marketing, and
if you're working in the Olympics,that's a big part of it. Is
like they're going to want that songto be catchy and to you know,
they want audiences and people watching athome to remember that song and probably buy
(20:14):
the single on iTunes or what haveyour Apple music whatever it's called now,
streaming off Spotify. They want thatsong to have some impact on the flip
side. Limp Biscuit, you havemore of the star power. You're bringing
in an established brand. You know, often they'll bring in famous musicians to
do Olympics songs or events songs,because that will give it a boost,
(20:37):
that will make a lot of money. So it's like, are we hiring
professional marketers or are we hiring anestablished brand name like to make the music
for US. Olympics is a worldwideplatform, right, and so you need
to reach everyone. Which one iswhich bend speaks more to the world at
large, limp Biscuit or Cockrock.I define my life now as before cockrock
(21:03):
and after cock crock, so acoh, I guess after cock rock is
where I am now. So itreally is hard to put cock rock away.
It's it's hard to hide the cockbut I have to say that's what
John Olmson, Oh, I haveto go with lim Biscuit. They've got
(21:27):
a proven history of catchy tunes.As much as everyone pretty much hates rolling,
Now, there was a moment,there was a particular moment in times
where we all were rolling and dothey have like the Olympic variation on that
song where it's just keep run andrun and run and run and what m
(21:48):
hm, you know, just likeslightly altered that song and suddenly it's Olympic
friendly. And that's the most commerciallyviable song. They've remixed it. It's
like doing a Christmas remix for it'sperfect. This is it. They'll sell
millions of copies done. Yeah,I mean Nookie was their other biggest hit,
probably right, I think Nookie wascould have probably been an even bigger
(22:10):
hit. Every one in one ANookie was definitely bigger here. Yeah.
Anything from hot dog flavored Water wasquite popular. So was my generation on
there, Yeah, my generation,yeah, and it was like a softer
one. My way, Oh myWay was quite big, wasn't. I
think boiler Room was off hot dogflavored water as well. Well, okay,
(22:30):
well, I'm gonna stick with LimpBiscuits. I know cock rock is
is great and my life has foreverchanged. But I think if we're looking
for a successful and the question isa better song, I think Limp Biscuit
will write us the best summer Olympicsong that our nation could be proud of.
Yeah. I kind of agree,because I think olymp Biscuit's good at
(22:51):
writing. One could argue dumb chorusesthat everyone will remember instantly. Yeah,
they are very catchy. You know, the chorus of Nookie is kind of
absurd. It's pretty dumb, butthe whole world was singing along in what
summer nineteen ninety nine or whatever wheneverthat album came out. So I kind
(23:11):
of believe if you need that quickhit, you know on the Olympics,
the song, you can play likeonce or twice and suddenly everyone's going to
know that chorus. Limp Biscuit arepretty good at that cockrock. Having now
listened to a clip of the music, I don't know that I could instantly
sing it. Limp Biscuit, Iknew those songs pretty quickly. I have
a special connection with Rollin. That'sa very unfortunate connection. But of course
(23:37):
you can hear it my ex partner. I met them at the bar,
a little bit of flirting and thenRolling comes on. Now you don't think
Roland is a makeout track, wellman, that was the song that brought
us together. Oh I lost sixyears of my life. That's what a
lot of Limp Biscuit fans and Ihate Limp Biscuit. So yeah, Rolling
(24:04):
is a very special song. Yeah, I could totally see being a makeout
song. There's the move in,move out, hands up, hands down,
backup, backup, tell me whatyou want to do? Now breathe
in breathing, that's consent in there, and everything is great. Mess with
limb Biscuit. You can't mess withlimb Biscuit because they'll ask for consent and
then you they'll either give it toyou or not. And that's the way
a good relationship should be. Sothat's the that's the moral of the story.
(24:26):
When it comes to Limp Biscuit music. See, the thing is,
flip Biscuit doesn't get nearly enough creditfor the deepness of their lyrics. I
was sitting here trashing on them earlier. But it's like an onion. There's
layers to Limp Biscuit, and peoplejust want to look at the surface.
But in reality, Fred Durst isa very well thought, deep thinking individual,
(24:47):
and songs like Rolling, I likeCounterfeit, they really have you freaking
me out. You wore a maskcalled counterfeit, not a counterfeit mask,
and why the mask was named counterfeit. There's actually probably a story in there
we don't know. They don't givea fuck and they won't ever give a
fuck, no, never until yougive a fuck about me from my generation.
(25:11):
Look, he's he's this altruistic guy. He wants to help a nation
thus the Olympics. Oh what hascock Rock ever done for anybody? They
couldn't even get out of the burgerking And I really wanted cock Rock after
letting them go on in the lastround. But honestly, I think any
of these other bands would have beenup against it. I could have made
an argument, I guess for aLincoln Park because they're kind of poppy enough.
(25:33):
I think that corn again too much, too heavy, too weird sounding.
They don't have open a tuning ontrombones or whatever the fuck they play,
and I don't think you can gettrumpets and shit that low in the
register. And then yeah, Idon't know, slip Knot, yeah that
too, So yeah, you can'tplay a speed metal song on a bagpipe,
(25:55):
but you could probably play the Nookieon a bagpipe, right, so
he won't way to find out?Yeah, yeah right, I got a
bagpipe back here, let's break itout after the show. Actually I do
not have a bagpipe. Be kindof dope. If I did, though,
I would totally pull it out rightnow and trying to play the Nookie
and Slipknot could not do an Olympicanthem to save their lives like they would
be. They're very good at anthems, but they're too extreme and a lot
(26:17):
of times. Honestly, the thingI don't like about Slipknot, at least
again, my Slipknot knowledge is notas as much as yours. I do
think they write very great heavy riffs, but it seems like the guy does
a lot of talking in a song. It's like he's reading the menu at
a restaurant. He can't decide ifhe wants the chicken or the fish.
He's like, I canna decide ifI want the chicken or the fish,
(26:37):
and the fishes looking very good rightnow, But then there's the chicken,
and he's like, what are youfucking talking about? Dude? Just sing?
Are you quoting a cockrock song rightnow? No, I should be,
that would be totally dope. Makesure that you get the chicken fries,
because the chicken fries are much betterthan the French fries. The French
fries are for losers. They're madeout of potatoes. Totally good the chicken
fries. But that's the way thatthe guy from Slipknot sings. If we're
(27:00):
looking at the USA theme for theafter the US is hosting the Olympics.
Now I mean, well, it'stotally cockrock because they do fast food.
It's done. What represents Americano morethan a guy right now in a white
shot and a red hot m Well, now, six months ago you would
have been right, and actually nowyou're right too. Of my neighborhood.
(27:22):
Welcome Miley my shoes. So thatsaid, unfortunately or fortunately, I think
we were up against it by invitingLimp Biscuit into this conversation because for all
their faults, they are somewhat ofan iconic band of an era. We
had to give them a fair run, as we do in the Whack brackets,
and we have a winner of ournew Metal Whack Bracket. We will
(27:45):
keep rolling, rolling, rolling withLimp Biscuit, and we will roll roll
Roll onto Cam and Scott from theSpyhearts podcast and thank them as we always
do, for being guest. Andbefore we go, why don't you tell
people what you do over at theSpyhards, as if they couldn't guess.
Well, apart from getting it onevery day and every night, you'll also
(28:08):
find us every Tuesday tackling the bestand worst of spy movies basically, So
we find a spy movie every weekand we try and figure out if it
makes the Knocklist. We call it. It's like the best of the best,
right camp. Yeah, Knocklist isthe need to see official classics of
the Spy Hearts podcast. So we'retrying to compile the ultimate list of spy
(28:29):
movies that you would give someone ifthey wanted to watch, the best spy
movies ever made. So, youknow, some movies you tackle are maybe
a little more obvious, like saysomething like Hitchcock's north By Northwest, but
there's others in there. There aremaybe some hidden gems that people should really
be watching, so we try toalso reveal those to an audience who may
not be aware of them, likethe Limbusit cover of George Michael's song Faith
(28:52):
that too. Yeah, that madethe Knocklist for sure. Of course,
now I have to see because apparentlythere's a film that's has Fred durst or
something and called The Fanatic Maybe oh, it's co written by Fred Durson throughout
God that sounds atrocious. It's unbelievablyawful. That's expected, but unfortunate.
(29:15):
So that's said again, thank youguys for being on. You are on
my knocklist. I love having youguys on. It's a lot of fun
as always on the Whack Brackets podcast. You can check me out on the
instagrams and the tweeters. I'm atwhack brackets. You can send me an
email to anything at whackbrackets dot com. You can send it to rock out
with your cockrock out at wackbrackets dotcom and I will get that. But
(29:37):
before we go, one more time, fellas, thank you Agent Cam and
Agent Scott. One day I willprobably call you Agent J and Agent K
and get assaulted through multimedia, andif I do, I apologize. But
until then, thank you again.I will let you say goodbye on the
way out. We'll see later.Goodbye on the way out. Good Night world,
Welcome to Whack Brackets, the podcastthat is still trying to understand how Fred
Durst is allowed to pack a chainsawand openly threatened people without doing hard time.
I'm your host, Mike, andon this episode of the podcast,
we are going to bracket off newmetal bands with oddly enough guys who are
into spy movies and Star Trek.But you know what, at one point
(00:22):
in most of our lives, wewere all into bad music and this fits
the bill. We are talking toyou from the Spyhards podcast, Agent Scott
and Agent Cam. And Agent Scottlooks like he's recording from the Sun today,
but so we'll start with him incase he's actually going to die.
First, how are you doing,Agent Scott? Are you alive over there?
I'm burning up in here. That'sjust with a passion to talk about
(00:45):
Lincoln Park, of course, Sohow are you doing? Cam? I'm
downloading the shock Wave for all theladies in the cave to get their groove
on. I'm doing great. I'msummoning up my Fred Durst poetry that i've
you know, memorized from the manyyears of listening to new metal. But
I'm very excited to talk about allmanner of new metal bands because this was
(01:08):
my era for sure. Yeah,well, I will warn you you mess
with limb Biscuit. You can't messwith limp Biscuit because they get it on
every day and every night. Justbe aware, be afraid, be very
afraid, my friend. But beforewe move on with the podcast, I
will tell people what I do overhere on the regular at the Whack Brackets
(01:30):
Podcast. I am asking the burningquestions you never knew you wanted answered until
we asked them. We will bringon fellow podcasters and friends of the show,
such as the Agents Cam and theAgent Scott, and we will brack
it off similar contestant choosing Irreverend Evertchanging questions. So if you are ready
to brack it off new metal bands, I'm ready to deal. We ready
to go. Yeah, okay,first question, we are going to pit
(01:55):
the legendary limb Biscuit versus Corn alsolegendary, arguably more legendary. Probably which
one of these two bands is morelikely to be reprimanded by the dean at
your college graduation? Who do youhave, Agent Cam? Okay, So
now I've got to think of likethe mentalities of these two bands. I
feel like Corn wore the like outsiderkind of look, but like, were
(02:20):
they really that bad at guys?Jonathan Davis seems like quite a sensitive soul
type, whereas when I look atLimp Biscuit, Fred Durst seems like a
hellion and not in like the waysthat not even like the fun you know
kind of way. More is likethis guy's kind of a jerk. And
I've seen the man in concert.I remember following this era and fred Durst
(02:42):
seems really obnoxious in a lot ofways. It was always like that was
the biggest issue I think for andI was a fan of Limp Biscuit for
several years. It was tough sometimesto be a fan because of fred Durst,
and I think that he would bethe one that would be running a
foul of the pesky Dean and causinga lot of problems. I think the
Corn guys were just kind of alittle too low key, all right,
(03:05):
what do you think, Scott see? I think Corn would have more trouble
just because they would be somewhat indecipherable, especially if they had to make a
commencement speech or something, and that'swhy the Dean would be on their ass
because you know, Limp Biscuit wouldbe wrapping, you'd kind of get it.
But then Corn walks up and they'relike, but the map and the
guys the Dean's like, what areyou doing? Get off the stage please?
(03:30):
And if the speech just ends withgo, that would be really confusing
at the end of the speech.Really what I mean? I guess,
you know what, if Corn aredoing the song Freak on a leash,
maybe that's a sign of their trueintentions as well. I mean, these
guys, you got to keep themon the leash because what happens when they're
off. That's what the dean hesuspects things. But on the flip side,
(03:54):
Limp Biscuit, they just want tobreak stuff. Yeah, no one
wants breaking stuff on the campus.Yeah. Well, the thing about Corn
Jonathan Davis, come to find out, that's a really weird dude. Oh
yeah, yeah. He collects Ithink mass murder or memorabilia. I think
he went on to be a mortician. He's kind of an odd bird,
(04:15):
but he doesn't strike me as beingtoo dangerous or stupid. I guess I
don't know, And Dan know what, I take that back. I actually
heard a story where he was onAlex Jones and anybody that's on Alex Jones
instantly. Again, we will notpreach many politics, but Alex Jones has
formally come out and said he istotally entertainment, even though he is totally
a lying to people in not entertainment. He says, if anybody believes me,
(04:36):
they're fucking stupid, and they are. That's beside the point. So
Alex Jones had on Jonathan Davis fromLimp bit or from Corn and he went
on and said Alex Jones type thing. So I guess he could get back
there and say some really ranting politicalstuff like fuck you your liberal Nazis and
shit like that. Now that beingsaid, Limp Biscuit, we've discussed already
(04:59):
that, at least on the surface, Fred Durst likes to pack chainsaws.
He also has admittedly talked about stickingcookies in his rectum. And he's dressed
in a T shirt all the time, so usually kind of a comment of
the college graduation you want to looka little nicer. So he's dressed in
a T shirt. The only guyin the audience wearing a red hat that's
(05:21):
not a Maga hat. West Borland'sgonna be standing around looking like a praying
man is dressed up like an astronautin a two two or some bullshit.
I just get the impression that Cornfor all of their faults or all of
their eccentric keys, and said that'snot a word. I'm speaking like a
fucking West Virginia hill Bill for alltheir accentritis, but for all their nuances,
(05:45):
we will say, Oh, theydon't strike me as probably causing too
much trouble. Whereas limb Biscuit,you know, when you go in which
you're gonna get limp Biscuit, they'regonna be every time and somebody rocks across
the stage. Fred Durst gonna belike, yeah, so yeah, I
think he's gonna be like, sir, you need to be quiet as a
students or walking across the stage,and it's like you can't bust wood limp
(06:05):
biscuit. You know. Of course, then poor Deane's gonna ask why it's
like because we get it on everyday and every night you're gonna think about
Fred Dust. He's the guy whothought he could cover George Michael's faith.
He kind of did, though itwasn't bad just because you did it doesn't
mean you did it, do youknow what I mean? Think? I
don't know. I thought that wasactually a pretty catchy cover. I think
(06:27):
I'll stick to George Michael thing.I think it's there behind blue Eyes that's
far more objectionable. That one's reallybad. I'm not even aware of that.
It was like maybe the two thousand, probably on two thousand and three
or something to that. Here's thething too, a real world point,
I think, to maybe settle thisargument, possibly both Corn and Limp Biscuit
(06:48):
played Woodstock ninety nine. As weknow, Woodstock ninety nine did not end
well. There was fires, therewas some rioting behavior, which band was
blamed for helping incite those problems.It was Limp Biscuit. Yeah, mmmm
(07:10):
yeah, I think I'm on board. I think Corner kind of a kind
of nice boys. Maybe. Ithink they kind of Mama's Boys a little
bit nice enough. They have issuesbecause you know, and that's actually an
album reference as well. They dohave the album issues, but um,
you know, their their backstory.There's some rough years for the Corn guys,
(07:30):
but it seemed like it was moreum self inflicted harm versus outward harm.
So they may have they may needlike the the you know, university
or a college counselor, but Idon't think they're causing the widespread issues that
limp Biscuit would. I would loveto hear Agent Scott because it sounds like
he could do some corn imitations.There. Can you do the thing in
(07:53):
the middle of freak on the leashwhere he sounds like it's like redneck beat
boxing or whatever. I did itearlier, I'm not doing it again.
And yeah, is that what youdid? I couldn't remember what I thought,
did the boom or whatever? Iokay, no, I think you
know what, For some reason,I thought you were just doing the I
think you shocked me with that.I think you were doing it. I
think I think you expect I expectedyou to do the whole, like,
(08:16):
uh, why are you gonna wearyour full armory? Yeah? Okay,
but yeah, you actually did theYou actually did the full You went all
in on the corn. So Ilove it. So you have to you
have to you do it. They'renot like Limbiscuit. They don't do it
every day and every night, butcorn do go hard. Well, that's
the thing about corn is that limpBiscuit does it too. Often. Probably
(08:37):
if Limp Biscuit would actually not doit so much, maybe they would be
a better band. But they're gettingit on every day and every night.
Corn knows when to rest, andthey bring their a game when they actually
play. Well. They do dreamabout sex all day, yeah, all
day long. Yeah, they actuallyhave shoes named after him. I didn't
even know that, so I've beentold, but I'm gonna I'm gonna go
with Limp Biscuit. I think it'sgonna get my vote. I remember seeing
(09:01):
m lim biscuitting concert in I thinkit was State, Yeah, it was.
It was a Metallica's summer Sanitarium tour. They were the co headliner and
they'd been booed off stage at oneof the stops shortly before hours, and
I remember they came out and peoplewere like pelting them with stuff and booing
them, and there were signs upall over the place, and I remember
(09:22):
Fred Durst goes, if you're gonnahit me, hit me in the face.
And I've never forgotten that. Thatstuck in my head. That was
like fifteen years ago, and Iwill never ever forget it for the rest
of my life. We would haveliked to Fred, But unfortunately not all
of us are that good at throwingthings long distances to hit your small ugly
(09:45):
as. So it does appear limBiscuit is going to go into the final
round against the winner of this question. Which one of these two bands?
Would you'd be more disturbed to findout that you're sixty four year old?
Surgeon listens to why not sixty five? I don't know in the middle of
a Beatles song. Now Scott hasinspired me. Would it be Lincoln Park
or would it be Slipknot? Andsince we start out with Cam last time,
(10:07):
let's start out with Scott. Whodo you have? Well, you've
got to think about what you wantfrom a surgeon. Okay, you want
steady hands, a focused mind.I don't think someone jamming out into Slipknot
and they're many drummers and percussionists alongmy body if he's chopping me up is
exactly what I want when a surgeon'sworking on me. So maybe something a
(10:30):
bit softer like Lincoln Park. Maybethey could do a little scraps like a
Wicked Wiki on my on me whenthey're performing surgery. But part from that,
I think i'd rather have Lincoln Parkyou know what, I'm going to
interject you. I'm going to makeCam answer this because I'm going to disagree,
And I tell you what for thesimple lines, For the simple fact
that Lincoln Park says this line intheir song. I tried so hard and
got so far, but in theend it doesn't even matter. That's not
(10:54):
the kind of attitude you want fromyour surgeon. It's just not okay.
So at that point, Install,I'm thinking, Lincoln Park, Oh,
what do you have, Agent Scott, I'm gonna jump in if you're gonna
throw like lyrics back at the serge, Oh, I'm definitely at the lyrics
at this Do you want the surgeonwho thinks people equal shit to operate on
you? I've got a few others. What about I want to slit your
(11:16):
throat and f the wound? Thatone? Um? Hm? Also is
it cut, cut, cut meup, and f f me up.
Um. Splitting the throat and FFingthe wound. From what I understand,
possibly from some of the people inmy neighborhood, that could possibly be a
COVID cure instead of actually getting thesevaccines to put microchips in you. Hopefully,
(11:39):
if I'm getting a track eotomy.That is not how I want it
to go on a way to dieeither. Oh my god, that's the
last thing I see. Um uh, autopsy's gonna read how did he die?
Cut up and sex performed in openwound. I'm just trying to think
here, Okay, so surgeon hadherpes added to malaise. Now you're really
(12:03):
sick. Yeah, yeah, that'sthat's what took it over the bar.
That was too far, That wasone too far. Yeah, okay,
I'm trying to like commit this ina different direction. Lincoln Park is a
tougher one to grapple with because I'mlike, okay, like it's fairly inoffensive.
I don't know if there's a lotabout Lincoln Park that's gonna make me
feel one way or the other,Like if they're listening to, like even
(12:24):
some of the slower Lincoln Park songs, what do I care? And not
only that, here's the thing anotherthing I hate about Lincoln Park, And
then I'll ask you one question aboutSlipno before we decide. The thing about
Lincoln Park I hate is they alwaysfelt like the worst derivative, kind of
like the cheesiest, boiled down versionof rage against the machine. Okay,
(12:46):
because they wanted to sound deep,but they didn't want to have any edge,
so it was kind of like,okay, and then we need a
rapper. So is Zach de Larrochatoo much? Spike sare you? You
know? Here has some Fort Minorinstead, you know? And so to
me, they're like, yeah,as far as I would consider the ten
percent rage, twenty percent shit,fifteen percent worried about having a hit and
(13:09):
whatever the fucking else Fort Minor songsays, if you guys know what I'm
talking about, So that's it's aderivative work of even their fort Minor is
the derivative of the derivative of LincolnPark. So anyway, yeah, too
many derivatives, okay. And Iwant a surgeon who's there because he wants
to be, not because he sawhis dad be a surgeon. He's like,
I'd like to do that, andit's like he's just half asking it
(13:31):
because he knows it makes a lotof money, you know. I think
slip knots in the game slip knotis so in the game Burger King copied
them. Do you guys remember thisshit? You not? There was a
metal I guess I don't know whatyou would call it, but Burger King
came out with a band check itout called Cockrock coq ROQ and they looked
(13:52):
a lot like slip Knot. Ithink Slipknot even sued them, and they
were selling chicken fries. What I'mnot making this up. Go check out
Burger King cock Rock coq RQ afterthis episode's over. I don't know that
that came across the border into Canadahere. I don't recall that at all.
That's amazing though. Yeah, acrossthe Atlantic. Not only cock rock,
(14:15):
I also believe put out like foursongs. I think, I bet
you can find them. Yeah,I'm pretty sure were they like heavy metal?
You know what. It's something you'regonna have to experience for yourself,
is all I'm gonna say. I'mgonna go cock rock. Yeah, say
they've got stuff here called bob yourhead. Uh, they've got chicken fries
puns. So is it like,oh yeah, it's it's totally tight or
(14:37):
something like that. It's it's burgerKing. Burger King put them up to
this. I'm pretty sure this wasn'ta band imitating Slipknot because they wanted to
and rapping about Burger King chicken fries. This was a band that was commissioned
by Burger King to wrap about saidchicken fries. That's incredible. I feel
like before slip run away with this. Oh you sent a video, Oh
(14:58):
I did? You can check itout real quick if you gotta at least
check it out for a second.If you got just but just give yourself.
I can check it out. SoI've got to know the verdict.
You guys look confused and days Iquite derivative. Um uh, it's a
good little hook. I guess they'rethey're actually musicians, which is nice.
(15:22):
Um what what? What? Whatif? I think they were getting out
of this? Are they talking themen in Black two crowd? Oh god,
I know that's about the lowest formof insult you can throw. Yeah,
we definitely made chapter Burgking and Highepisode. Ah okay, okay,
(15:48):
okay, okay, Sorry to takeit off the rails, but if you
had, I thought hopefully I wasgoing to get a cock rock discussion going
on here. And at least nowyou've seen cock rock. I thought I
had seen cock rock, but nowI definitely have seen and I'll never unsee
it. Yeah, I know,And it's it's kind of beautiful and it's
in it's oddity. I think thewinner of Lincoln Park versus slip Knot is
(16:11):
cock rock. I'll let him goon to the next round, and this
is my show. I'll do whateverI want. What cock to go on?
That would actually disturb me more ifwe add cock rock. If I
knew my surgeon was listening to cockRock the band well he was, Yeah,
I'd go with that. The questionis who would be Who would you
be more disturbed to find out?Yeah, I definitely will disturbed to find
(16:33):
out cock rock was playing in definitelyin the surgery. I mean yeah,
you know, like they say thatthere's a parallel between a lot of heavy
metal fans also listened to classical musicfor some reason. There's some bit of
connection there. So if you tellme my surgeon listens to slip Knot or
Lincoln Park, I go, okay, makes sense, Like maybe he's into
classical music as well, Like maybethere's a diversity of choices here. If
(16:57):
he's listened to cock rock, I'mlike, this man is out of his
mind. Yeah, yeah, thisguy's not in a good place, Like
why is he listening to like badmusic from like Burger King commercials, Like
that's insane, and there's only likefour songs, which means that he probably
listens to them regularly. He's probablyjust got them on repeat. I feel
sorry for the nurses. Oh mygod, if we got a sign today,
(17:21):
Okay, yeah, yeah, let'stake a leg away. Oh doctor
Smith? Oh no, cock rockguy. Yeah, Like the head surgeons,
like, I just don't understand whythe nurses keep quitting after working here
for two weeks and like they gotrocked. It never really raised a concern
to me that perhaps my surgeon iswearing like a slipnot costume. Yea,
(17:44):
what, but I feel somewhat considerablymore concerned that he's probably wearing a cock
rock costume because someone who's listening tocock rock is probably wearing the costume because
clearly they've lost their mind. Youknow what, I'm fine, I'll let
Cockrot go onto the next round.Well we'll fuck uh Slipknot and m Lincoln
(18:04):
Park all the hell. We'll justlet cock Rock go in. So yeah,
yeah, cock Rock gonna go onthe final round late addition to this
whack bracket. It's happened before.I believe it'll happen again. So it
just happens. He's made a comebackthat no one thought they would. I
wonder what those guys are doing now. Now I'm gonna have to do a
deep dive after this episode and postfollow ups on Twitter. They're probably working
(18:26):
at Burger King. I can't waitfor the return of the Rooster tour.
Oh. I guarantee your ass.At least one of those guys was the
son of an executive at Burger King. Oh yeah, and and like failed
son, it's the son who's likereally screwing up, and he's like,
I know I can at least gethim to do this. Yeah, And
(18:48):
then he's like, well, here'sthe thing. Then I can pay him.
This is probably a tax scame,okay, And he's like, okay,
now, how can I have atax shelter for my money? Well,
if I give him, I'm he'sgonna be taxed at a little rate
than me. So I'll give himthis and a whole bunch of stock options
in Burger King, and then thatway I don't have to pay him to
live out in the garage anymore.So Cockrock guys, sorry to insult you,
(19:10):
but you win or lose and yougo onto the next round unexpectedly.
Sorry, but this is the waywe play the whack rackets. So final
question about the only band you wouldconsider to be as ridiculous as cock Rock
Limp Biscuit going up against Cockrock,with this final question being which one of
(19:30):
these two bands writes a better themesong for the Summer Olympics. We don't
know much about cock Rock, butwe know they are derivative work of Slip
nine and we also know they writebetter riffs than you would expect. So
Cam, which would it be?Boy, It's hard to not say cock
(19:53):
Rock because it's like, these arepeople that write jingles for marketing, and
if you're working in the Olympics,that's a big part of it. Is
like they're going to want that songto be catchy and to you know,
they want audiences and people watching athome to remember that song and probably buy
(20:14):
the single on iTunes or what haveyour Apple music whatever it's called now,
streaming off Spotify. They want thatsong to have some impact on the flip
side. Limp Biscuit, you havemore of the star power. You're bringing
in an established brand. You know, often they'll bring in famous musicians to
do Olympics songs or events songs,because that will give it a boost,
(20:37):
that will make a lot of money. So it's like, are we hiring
professional marketers or are we hiring anestablished brand name like to make the music
for US. Olympics is a worldwideplatform, right, and so you need
to reach everyone. Which one iswhich bend speaks more to the world at
large, limp Biscuit or Cockrock.I define my life now as before cockrock
(21:03):
and after cock crock, so acoh, I guess after cock rock is
where I am now. So itreally is hard to put cock rock away.
It's it's hard to hide the cockbut I have to say that's what
John Olmson, Oh, I haveto go with lim Biscuit. They've got
(21:27):
a proven history of catchy tunes.As much as everyone pretty much hates rolling,
Now, there was a moment,there was a particular moment in times
where we all were rolling and dothey have like the Olympic variation on that
song where it's just keep run andrun and run and run and what m
(21:48):
hm, you know, just likeslightly altered that song and suddenly it's Olympic
friendly. And that's the most commerciallyviable song. They've remixed it. It's
like doing a Christmas remix for it'sperfect. This is it. They'll sell
millions of copies done. Yeah,I mean Nookie was their other biggest hit,
probably right, I think Nookie wascould have probably been an even bigger
(22:10):
hit. Every one in one ANookie was definitely bigger here. Yeah.
Anything from hot dog flavored Water wasquite popular. So was my generation on
there, Yeah, my generation,yeah, and it was like a softer
one. My way, Oh myWay was quite big, wasn't. I
think boiler Room was off hot dogflavored water as well. Well, okay,
(22:30):
well, I'm gonna stick with LimpBiscuits. I know cock rock is
is great and my life has foreverchanged. But I think if we're looking
for a successful and the question isa better song, I think Limp Biscuit
will write us the best summer Olympicsong that our nation could be proud of.
Yeah. I kind of agree,because I think olymp Biscuit's good at
(22:51):
writing. One could argue dumb chorusesthat everyone will remember instantly. Yeah,
they are very catchy. You know, the chorus of Nookie is kind of
absurd. It's pretty dumb, butthe whole world was singing along in what
summer nineteen ninety nine or whatever wheneverthat album came out. So I kind
(23:11):
of believe if you need that quickhit, you know on the Olympics,
the song, you can play likeonce or twice and suddenly everyone's going to
know that chorus. Limp Biscuit arepretty good at that cockrock. Having now
listened to a clip of the music, I don't know that I could instantly
sing it. Limp Biscuit, Iknew those songs pretty quickly. I have
a special connection with Rollin. That'sa very unfortunate connection. But of course
(23:37):
you can hear it my ex partner. I met them at the bar,
a little bit of flirting and thenRolling comes on. Now you don't think
Roland is a makeout track, wellman, that was the song that brought
us together. Oh I lost sixyears of my life. That's what a
lot of Limp Biscuit fans and Ihate Limp Biscuit. So yeah, Rolling
(24:04):
is a very special song. Yeah, I could totally see being a makeout
song. There's the move in,move out, hands up, hands down,
backup, backup, tell me whatyou want to do? Now breathe
in breathing, that's consent in there, and everything is great. Mess with
limb Biscuit. You can't mess withlimb Biscuit because they'll ask for consent and
then you they'll either give it toyou or not. And that's the way
a good relationship should be. Sothat's the that's the moral of the story.
(24:26):
When it comes to Limp Biscuit music. See, the thing is,
flip Biscuit doesn't get nearly enough creditfor the deepness of their lyrics. I
was sitting here trashing on them earlier. But it's like an onion. There's
layers to Limp Biscuit, and peoplejust want to look at the surface.
But in reality, Fred Durst isa very well thought, deep thinking individual,
(24:47):
and songs like Rolling, I likeCounterfeit, they really have you freaking
me out. You wore a maskcalled counterfeit, not a counterfeit mask,
and why the mask was named counterfeit. There's actually probably a story in there
we don't know. They don't givea fuck and they won't ever give a
fuck, no, never until yougive a fuck about me from my generation.
(25:11):
Look, he's he's this altruistic guy. He wants to help a nation
thus the Olympics. Oh what hascock Rock ever done for anybody? They
couldn't even get out of the burgerking And I really wanted cock Rock after
letting them go on in the lastround. But honestly, I think any
of these other bands would have beenup against it. I could have made
an argument, I guess for aLincoln Park because they're kind of poppy enough.
(25:33):
I think that corn again too much, too heavy, too weird sounding.
They don't have open a tuning ontrombones or whatever the fuck they play,
and I don't think you can gettrumpets and shit that low in the
register. And then yeah, Idon't know, slip Knot, yeah that
too, So yeah, you can'tplay a speed metal song on a bagpipe,
(25:55):
but you could probably play the Nookieon a bagpipe, right, so
he won't way to find out?Yeah, yeah right, I got a
bagpipe back here, let's break itout after the show. Actually I do
not have a bagpipe. Be kindof dope. If I did, though,
I would totally pull it out rightnow and trying to play the Nookie
and Slipknot could not do an Olympicanthem to save their lives like they would
be. They're very good at anthems, but they're too extreme and a lot
(26:17):
of times. Honestly, the thingI don't like about Slipknot, at least
again, my Slipknot knowledge is notas as much as yours. I do
think they write very great heavy riffs, but it seems like the guy does
a lot of talking in a song. It's like he's reading the menu at
a restaurant. He can't decide ifhe wants the chicken or the fish.
He's like, I canna decide ifI want the chicken or the fish,
(26:37):
and the fishes looking very good rightnow, But then there's the chicken,
and he's like, what are youfucking talking about? Dude? Just sing?
Are you quoting a cockrock song rightnow? No, I should be,
that would be totally dope. Makesure that you get the chicken fries,
because the chicken fries are much betterthan the French fries. The French
fries are for losers. They're madeout of potatoes. Totally good the chicken
fries. But that's the way thatthe guy from Slipknot sings. If we're
(27:00):
looking at the USA theme for theafter the US is hosting the Olympics.
Now I mean, well, it'stotally cockrock because they do fast food.
It's done. What represents Americano morethan a guy right now in a white
shot and a red hot m Well, now, six months ago you would
have been right, and actually nowyou're right too. Of my neighborhood.
(27:22):
Welcome Miley my shoes. So thatsaid, unfortunately or fortunately, I think
we were up against it by invitingLimp Biscuit into this conversation because for all
their faults, they are somewhat ofan iconic band of an era. We
had to give them a fair run, as we do in the Whack brackets,
and we have a winner of ournew Metal Whack Bracket. We will
(27:45):
keep rolling, rolling, rolling withLimp Biscuit, and we will roll roll
Roll onto Cam and Scott from theSpyhearts podcast and thank them as we always
do, for being guest. Andbefore we go, why don't you tell
people what you do over at theSpyhards, as if they couldn't guess.
Well, apart from getting it onevery day and every night, you'll also
(28:08):
find us every Tuesday tackling the bestand worst of spy movies basically, So
we find a spy movie every weekand we try and figure out if it
makes the Knocklist. We call it. It's like the best of the best,
right camp. Yeah, Knocklist isthe need to see official classics of
the Spy Hearts podcast. So we'retrying to compile the ultimate list of spy
(28:29):
movies that you would give someone ifthey wanted to watch, the best spy
movies ever made. So, youknow, some movies you tackle are maybe
a little more obvious, like saysomething like Hitchcock's north By Northwest, but
there's others in there. There aremaybe some hidden gems that people should really
be watching, so we try toalso reveal those to an audience who may
not be aware of them, likethe Limbusit cover of George Michael's song Faith
(28:52):
that too. Yeah, that madethe Knocklist for sure. Of course,
now I have to see because apparentlythere's a film that's has Fred durst or
something and called The Fanatic Maybe oh, it's co written by Fred Durson throughout
God that sounds atrocious. It's unbelievablyawful. That's expected, but unfortunate.
(29:15):
So that's said again, thank youguys for being on. You are on
my knocklist. I love having youguys on. It's a lot of fun
as always on the Whack Brackets podcast. You can check me out on the
instagrams and the tweeters. I'm atwhack brackets. You can send me an
email to anything at whackbrackets dot com. You can send it to rock out
with your cockrock out at wackbrackets dotcom and I will get that. But
(29:37):
before we go, one more time, fellas, thank you Agent Cam and
Agent Scott. One day I willprobably call you Agent J and Agent K
and get assaulted through multimedia, andif I do, I apologize. But
until then, thank you again.I will let you say goodbye on the
way out. We'll see later.Goodbye on the way out. Good Night world,
