I'm oddly taken with Flobots. It's kind of catchy. And that other song is just sort of generic teen-rock.

Oddly good hook. I like it despite myself.
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah

"Built to Last" probably won't. It's tuneful, but not very exciting musically. Far too ordinary.

"Handlebars" has got to be one of the stupidest raps I've heard, but damn is it funny. I don't know how much a market there is for nerd rap, but it just might take off.

Flobots sounds like it was produced in some New Jersey basement. That, and I don't really like Punk music. I mean, yeah, the lyrics are funny and all, but that's about it.

The guy who nominated Built to Last must be a genius, it's such an amazing song!!

Punk music? Mush, do you even know what music is? Have you -listened- to music before? I'm just curious, because this is so far away from punk it isn't even funny. Did you just NOT listen to the Flobots, who are so clearly hip hop/rap it isn't even funny?

Like... what? PUNK?

Thanks for your concern.

I just called the management and they confirmed my statement. It is Punk music.

Kind regards.

Yeah, so... we're going to go with the fact that you've never actually heard punk music, then, shall we? Good.

But you're probably right, the INDIE HIP HOP BAND FROM COLORADO is playing punk music.

Flobots - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

But yeah, that sounds just like actual punk rock:

YouTube - Sex Pistols - God Save the Queen (Studio)

YouTube - Stiff Little Fingers - Suspect Device

In summation: Never categorize music again, you fucking suck at it.

I listened to the intro to Built to Last and then the dude starting singing and I stopped listening to it. It's yet another tune with nothing to distinguish it from most of the others in the contest. Boring, pointless, doesn't deserve to progress.

The Flobots I liked. Not the sort of thing I'd necessarily pay for but I have no objection to listening to it, in fact I might download it.

Never heard of The Flobots but I fucking love this hip-hop-ish kind of tune. If nothing else comes up, this could very well be one of my favorite tracks off this contest. Props to whoever nominated it!

Flobots had me at 'i can tie a knot in a cherry stem'; what a funny song. And fuck those kids who ride without using the handlebars - do it while playing gameboy and i might be impressed. I'm not usually all that attentive to lyrics, but this is one of those exceptions.
Music is a mysterious thing. Sometimes it makes people remember things they do not expect. Many thoughts, feelings, memories... things almost forgotten... Regardless of whether the listener desires to remember or not.
