I was smoking a joint out front of the nightclub I was working at when Shifty Shellshock came to get drink tickets from the gm. I told him "I got one of these..." and he took the joint and smoked it with me. By the end of the night he spent all the money they made on speed and was screaming at his band mates butt he was super kewl before the show started ::)
I met Shifty once. He asked me where the bathroom was. I pointed towards the back. He then began howling with laughter as he took out a flask and proceeded to urinate into it. He then began to chug from the flask and held a lighter up to his lips before belching a huge ball of flame. As I stood there shellshocked, he looked me in the eyes and said, “no one will ever believe you.”
Downfall by trust company will always be a banger in my book. I used to play mx unleashed with my cousins before everyone moved away from each other and that song plays during the intro to the game.
Downfall was THEEE song that got me into metal music. My crush lent me their cd in 2003. I pretended to like it, then after she dumped me I kept that cd. And now I'm here. Thanks Sophie Jones.
I just recently moved, looked into some boxes in my attic, and found about 12 pairs of JNKOs and a shitload of Affliction shirts😂. Christmas has come early
Okay we’ve got some Primer 55 going. Let’s get us to the underground Nu-Metal bands. You haven’t truly gotten to understand Nu-Metal until you hear bands like Primer 55, 40 Below Summer, Spineshank, Nonpoint, Pleymo, Reveille, Shuvel, Insolence, One Minute Silence, and Darwin’s Waiting Room. I’m such a Nu-Metal fan that I’ve been to the very deep end of the iceberg, where at the deep end you hear bands like 20 Dead Flower Children, SORE, and Presence A lot of these more underground and unsigned Nu-Metal bands were on Farmclub in 2000 and 2001 on USA Network, Farmclub was a music show on USA Network from 2000 to 2001 and had a ton of Nu-Metal bands on the show, they would also bring on bands that were unsigned to get them exposure to get signed by a record label.
Me and about 15 other band dudes almost kicked Shifty’s ass because he got into it with the sound guy at our local venue, he kicked a monitor off stage, slammed it back onstage, and then pushed Animal (our local sound guy) onstage because he cut their set before they got to play Butterfly 😂 100% happened *edit* he was absolutely on drugs again at this point, and this was the day before the other singer Bobby shot off the hard R about 4 times during he and shifty’s fight, he’s a grade A piece of shit
Union Underground and Trust Company is what us wrestling fans listen to. If you were a wrestling fan in the 00’s. Trapt Saliva Puddle Of Mudd Limp Bizkit Creed Union Underground Three Days Grace Breaking Benjamin Trust Company Neurotica Disturbed Nonpoint Theory of a Deadman Drowning Pool 3 Doors Down Alter Bridge Sevendust This is your playlist. These bands would play WWE shows, themes for the wrestlers, themes for the shows. Nu-Metal and Butt Rock is just wrestling and wrestling fan music
I'm dying laughing because of 1) me as well, but 2) I just listened to their WWE Raw theme song, I always thought the was one of WWE's original compositions meant to sound like Powerman 5000 as their wrestler themes often do. Poor guys, though probably doesn't help that The Velvet Underground is a massively superior band, so if I ever even heard their name from a radio DJ I probably started thinking about them instead and went back to assuming I just heard a Powerman 5000 song lol.
@TimPool.BeanieCivilWarlord that ain't no White Zombie sound. Did you not hear Finn say who they sound exactly like? Hint: the singer is related to Mr. Zombie but doesn't sound like Mr. Zombie. Neither do their respective bands.
@@tonesdad0408 Hey, you watch what you say. You're speaking to The Union Underground's biggest fan, doing honestly a pretty subpar job of defending them if that was the goal. Hmm, actually carry on.
I feel like it's important for you to know that I used the cursor to outline Crazytown's soulpatch with my cursor when you asked, "you know how you can tell?" Nu-metal Blues Clues. I know you hate doing these, and you're living in content hell, but they are really fun.
When Finn mentioned the eyebrow piercings, I flashed back to my dad, whose fourth language is English, referring to those as "metal face sparkles" and then further flashed back to the time he earnestly complimented a biker on "your lovely sparkle". My running theory is that the only reason he didn't get punched for that is that he was with small children and it was in public.
I see the chat saying hed is a Korn cover band, especially the bass line... Well, the basist and jahred actually lived with some of the og korn members in 93/94, they used to jam eith each other. Also hed pe was the first nu metal band to have a turntabelist as a member. A guy called fred durst used to be a regular at their shows before he formed his band.
My friend got me the Trustfall CD for my birthday. He was just starting to get into rock music at the time so his tastes weren't great (HUGE Disturbed fan...) and for some reason thought I would like them. Anyway, I listened to the CD one time and EVERY song had the word "down" in the lyrics. It was hilarious waiting for it in the next song and without fail you'd hear "down" again.
I met Mr. Shifty Switchablade at Target, I was the only cashier open and he comes up to buy something and I was like wow, Shifty? And he goes “Yeah Whas Up” told Crazy Town still playing. I thought that was cool though, of course the years of drugs wasn’t too kind to him so he looked like the people from my town of Sunland Tujunga but still awesome to meet him for the first time 😂
15:01 I saw Hed(PE) in Cleveland back in 2000. They were direct support for POD. The opening band was Linkin Park. I was there with my youth group. I thought the sides in Hed(PE) we’re possessed and I liked it!
Great video as always, bro. Have you done a video on video game soundtracks? Maybe a tier list? If you do, just know that like all the early 2000s dirt bike games always had the best music. 🙏🏻
The union underground aka The poor mans powerman 5000 😂 i never heard of these guys, but then again there was hundreds of nu metal bands signed to big labels
I smoked a j with the the singer of HED Pe at Rockfest 99 in Portland, he introduced me to Kerry King. One of the coolest moments on my life up to that point being 19.
@@parisite99 oh man it was! My brother and I were walking around and this guy comes up and says, hey let me hit that, we look up at this tall MF with dreads and are like oh shit, I know you! We bs for a few and he says you guys seem cool, wanna meet somebody? He walks us down the bus rows and we meet Kerry and get to chat for like 5 min.
My first show ever was Strange Noize tour Seattle, ‘06 I think. Hed PE,Tech N9ne,KMK,Blaze Ya Dead Homie & Big B/Dirtball. I met Jared in the lobby, he was signing a woman’s chest hah. Nice dude.
3:04 No, dad. It’s a neatly chiseled, well groomed, drop dead handsome face. And that’s exactly what Handsome Boy Modeling School is going to do for me.
What! That hed(pe) album Broke is great 😂 easily one of the best nu metal albums. Can’t agree that it sucks but I did lol through that entire section anyway. I used to aspire to the maxed out character creator look back then 😂
Fun Fact: Turn me on Mr Dead man is likely from "Revolution 9" by The Beatles. Supposedly when played backwards, the words, "Turn me on, dead man, turn me on, dead man..." are heard.
Crazy Town is unironically kind of good. I played their album quite a bit back in the day, it's kind of sad that people only know them for Butterfly. Kind of like how a lot of people only know 311 for Amber - that is NOT what most of their music sounds like.
Oh the band playing behind or in a cage is a common trope in Hard Rock and Metal. Dope - Everything Sucks Godsmack - Awake Alice In Chains - Again And Hed Pe - Bartender 4 music videos right there of a band playing in a cage.
Unrelated to the video, I hope you’re doing better with your mental health Finn. Love the channel keep doing what you love and fuck what the haters say. 🤘👽🤘
I like how nu-metal bands, such as hed P.E., followed up on what bands like 311 introduced, and the metal bands’ DJs were way better than S.A. of 311, but their talent didn’t matter because they were caught up in a trend. The DJ scratching segment of Bartender was pretty good!
I gotta say, TrustCompany is similar to Jimmy Eat World. The hits are okay, but it's the albums that have much higher quality songs. The hits are okay, but the rest of that album is FANTASTIC. But yeah, I don't fault you for thinking this song is kinda generic lol
I'm guessing "Turn Me On Mr. Deadman" would be a Beatles reference? Revolution #9. It even seems like there is even a Dire Straights Money For Nothing reference, too... However, it's really hard to tell with a band like this. 😂 I actually completely forgot about this song and discount Powerman5000.
Trust company was done dirty being lumped in with the rest of these guys 😂 Also, while I do like "Downfall", the rest of that album is so much better than that track.
Still have the "Union Underground" CD. Everyone here in San Antonio was so stoked for them when WWE started using their song "across the nation" as the Monday Night Raw theme song! And they are still touring believe it or not.
I find it hysterical that I got halfway into this one and still wasn’t sure if it was new or if you’d just re-uploaded part 2 because all the songs sound the same
Not watched the video but i see hed pe in thumbnail... Now i dont stan for any band... EXCEPT hed pe. Finn, you should see what jahreds up to now, he is wholesome af. Reminds me of you. Honest hardworking, and insta invite to my bbq. He does a craaaaap ton of features for smaller bands, sometimes for free. Their live shows are small but, the vibe is just so positive. Also jahreds 60 now. Insane. Love their new stuff over their old stuff.
There was a moment in time when we went from seeing bands with influences from Deftones or Korn and then the genre transmuted into what we see in this video.
This was good 👍. Finn man, you may have found your niche. You should try a few more nu metal vids and see how they do, you might really have something here.
I met these guys at a European music festival in the early 2000’s. They were actually big refused and rites of spring fans, they were signed to a major label and they kind of dictated what they should sound and look like (which surprise, was numetal)
I love the snarky humor and nostalgia factor of those deep dives. Nü-metal was something! If this comment doesn't get buried, I have two suggestions for a future installment: NO ONE - Chemical: the most nü-metal video ever, a true forgotten gem TWISTED MACHINE - Crazy Farce: did you know they still make nü-metal in China to this day?! I live there and have been to several mixed bill shows where there would be one death metal band, one hardcore band, and... one nü-metal band. Most are small and local and some evolve into thrash or whatever but some stay entrenched there, and Twisted Machine is one of the biggest, though more on the rap-metal side of things

Crazy Town is a good listen when you're locked in the garage with the car running.
Their song drowning is pretty alright

Makes no sense and isnt even remotely funny.. Only if you're a diehard CT fan and want to die listening to their songs...

Babe, wake up, Finn is talking about Crazytown again.

Not bad deal. What about a 80s hair metal rockstar?

We call that the Shifty Package. Would you like a truncated soul patch at no extra charge?
@@TimPool.BeanieCivilWarlord wow really!? Yeah I’ll take the soul patch!
That little patch of hair Epic has is called a 'flavor saver' or that's at least what I was told.

I miss those steel ball necklaces.
I made mine from a toilet piece
I have mine stored at some box , I use it until I hit 20… Damm.
That was my jam
I loved chewing on them as a kid 😂
Those were the coolest
The only thing I remember The Union Underground did was the WWE Monday Night Raw opening song.
Across the Nation
*Stone cold *
I was so nu-metal I had flames on my chucks 😂
that main butterfly riff, riff that made the whole song, is actually a RHCP riff from some of their rehearsals, so at the end its not even theirs lol
Yes, think it’s called Pretty little ditty
Yeah, it’s on their Mother’s Milk album.
When it all makes sense…
When Refused asked "can I scream?" Trust Company said "... no."
😂
The chorus riff on Crazy Town’s song Darkside will always be absolutely killer
I just recently moved, looked into some boxes in my attic, and found about 12 pairs of JNKOs and a shitload of Affliction shirts😂. Christmas has come early

I met these guys at a European music festival in the early 2000’s. They were actually big refused and rites of spring fans, they were signed to a major label and they kind of dictated what they should sound and look like (which surprise, was numetal)
Man, I actually LOVED the entirety of both the Crazy Town and Union Underground albums!! Awesome throwbacks!
Omg hed PE I listened to them long into the 2010s! Finally outgrew their childish lyrics but still, some of their songs go hard
Ben stiller was in crazy town?
Dude is it just me or did the video edit out all of the songs except 3 seconds for at least those first two
I love the snarky humor and nostalgia factor of those deep dives. Nü-metal was something!
If this comment doesn't get buried, I have two suggestions for a future installment:
NO ONE - Chemical: the most nü-metal video ever, a true forgotten gem
TWISTED MACHINE - Crazy Farce: did you know they still make nü-metal in China to this day?! I live there and have been to several mixed bill shows where there would be one death metal band, one hardcore band, and... one nü-metal band. Most are small and local and some evolve into thrash or whatever but some stay entrenched there, and Twisted Machine is one of the biggest, though more on the rap-metal side of things
I'm not sure of the exact timing here, but Trust Company either tried to be Chevelle or Chevelle did a better job at being Trust Company.
The metal cage around the stage just screams "We got both kinds of metal: Nu-metal, and rap metal"
