Bi-Polar Music
So as I've mentioned before I music groups that aren't just one mood in every album. Off the top of my head I'd have to say Blink 182 and Hollywood Undead are prime examples of that. From what I read, when Hollywood Undead released Swan Songs they confused the fuck out of people with how it'd be a super sad ass song then some up beat one. Going for No. 5 to Young and other shit. Blink 182, well lets take Enema of the State. They laced Adam's Song into it. They had other sad songs on it, but Adam's Song is the only one I can instantly recall off the top of my head. Let me go look up the track listing. Ok so Enema of the State isn't a great example. But what I'm saying is they're music isn't just one mood. And it can be confusing and in my opinion two faced. Like a relatively newer song by Hollywood Undead, Bullet. That thing, when I was listening to it I first thought of a kid's show theme song. Until I listened to it again and heard the lyrics. They made, a pop song, about killing yourself. Another song like that is Sweater Song by Weezer where the reception isn't what they expected. People didn't realize how serious they were in the song, the sweater being the relationship between the two people, etc etc. Weezer always manages to sound upbeat, even when they aren't. It fits how I work. My psyche is so fucking retarded, I'm crazy, and that's the best way to put it. I always talk like I'm happy to people in person, when I sound like something's wrong, it's way more worse than they think. I have the same psycho makeup of it. Hollywood Undead has six vocalist in it. That's why it's so bi-polar with it's music. Well I don't have six voices in my head, or six people in my body, but I sure as hell act like Charlie Scene just as much as Johnny 3 Tears. Everywhere I Go is a great theme song for me, but same with Bullet. Of course, I'm never going to go so far and do that dastardly suicide shit. Blink 182 is just nice. They're practically party boys, but when they release a serious song you'd have to have brain damage to think it's not.
