The Muse subreddit fucking faps to that song istg, they voted it as the second best of the album and I’ve even seen people say it should REPLACE Knights of Cydonia as their set list closer 🤦♂️
As someone who grew up listening to mostly eminem as rap until like high school i used to think i just genuinely didn't like rap hooks cuz so many of his are mid if not terrible.
the hook on max b sounds like those random soundbites artists used to add to their music videos so you wouldn't download the music video as mp3 file to your library lol
the "zimzalabim" song reminds me of the simpsons episode where bart and his friends are made into a corporate boy band and the chorus for one of their songs has gibberish which turns out to be "join the navy" played backwards cause the bands manager wants to brainwash listeners into joining the navy.
I did NOT expect zimzalabim to come up at all I got jumpscared. It feels so awkward to hear someone who's not into kpop listen to things I listen to all the time, because it always becomes insulting😰 despite this, I liked the video a lot!
@favOriTe you're correct but it was at the very start of what turned into a trend that is still plaguing us today. Please everyone sing your choruses, or just don't have one at all.
when he said "Lux Aeterna" I expected it not to refer to Metallica, but to György Ligeti's choral work of the same name and thus being a troll comment, as that work has no hook or verses
its just what comes over abracadabra the full phrase is abracadabra simsalabim which ive never heard in english tho so idk if thats common knowledge at all
@@ZyeWorld quick google search keeps bringing up multiple sources saying it comes from the Aramaic phrase avra kehdabra, meaning “I will create as I speak” not sure how true this is as I also hear that it and hocus pocus come from some butchered Christian rites originally in Latin by people who didn't know Latin and were just repeating the sounds.
“Focus” sounds so much like “Problem” to me it sounds like they were making one a sequel of the other. The “Problem” hook fits so much better than the “Focus” hook tho.
the shock on my face when you reviewed zimzalabim LOL yeah a lot of kpop stans didn't like that song either when it came out... red velvet has some nice bsides so i guess it balances it out
Even though I do dislike that Chorus in Hexagram, I still think it is the best album opener that Deftones have ever come up with! Those last 1 and a half minutes are gorgeous 🥺
i fucking love the chorus. honestly i think hexagram is either the best or in the top 3 best songs period. i never knew people disliked it! (there are DEFINITELY some shitty Deftones choruses though. namely like almost everything on Ohms lmao)
@@virtueisdead can't believe people are hating on the chorus man, the discordance is what's so based about it! Glad Brad likes it at least, the song kicks ass
@@virtueisdead i absolutely agree, hexagram is GORGEOUS and it was the first deftones song i ever heard. absolutely incredible & made me the fan i am today
you should definitely do a full reaction to that Sunny Day Real Estate album. it’s a bit long but when I’m in the right headspace for it it’s one of my all time favorites. Seven, In Circles, & Song About an Angel are all incredible.
Not to mention songs like 8 on the sorta deluxe version (really just a couple songs from LP 2 added into the tracklisting) 8 being arguably my favorite song of theirs.
@@blobbything2986 Splendour and Misery is one of my favorite albums of all time too, and I felt the same exact way. Brad's chat started to remind me of Fantano's chat for a second there.
I have bad news for Brad, in that as much as he shits on Ronnie Radke (deservedly so), the chorus on Brother is actually Danny Worsnop of Asking Alexandria
Everytime I hear Anyone Can Play Guitar by Radiohead I get really into the verse and I’m like “wow why do I never listen to this??” And then I get to the chorus and it’s like ahhh. It’s just kinda generic
Venom is one of those tracks I cannot bring myself to dislike, even the hook/chorus. It’s catchy and has that adrenaline pumping feel that Em was going for. Generally, out of a lot of Em’s more recent stuff (which I do still like) it’s probably one of my favorites.
I should have suggested Adele's "Rumor Has It", the verses and bridge go insanely hard but the chorus is so boring, catchy as it is. Not much fun to sing either, hook-wise, which is odd for an Adele track. Her music is usually challenging from a vocal standpoint.
I'm so happy that you think the chorus on hexagram works. ever since I listened to hexagram, I've always thought that the chorus flows really well from the verses.
Offended would've been such a good song if it had no chorus, if it just kept building up till the fast part it wouldve been onemkf the best on the album, sadly, eminem didnt do that 😔
I'm probably way too late to get this out, but I'm going to throw out a Dream Theater song. "The Test That Stumped Them All" is a mid-track in a suite of 8 songs; it's not even a bad hook/chorus, just LaBrie's voice goes so high-pitched it becomes comical and sucks all the energy out of the song.
5:55 There is another song ronnie did called "Brother". it wasn't on a solo project it was the last track of falling in Reverse's album "Just Like You". this other brother is way better and is somewhat of a callback to his song "The day l left the womb off of his 2006 album "Dying is your Latest Fashion". the song is way better then the one you listened to
Just wanna mention that guy in chat that said TSLAMP by MGMT... bruh, that song has such a good hook, it's so psychedelic and complimentary to the groovy verses.
Which part is even the hook in that song? Where the guy sings "Time spent sitting all alone, time spent looking at my phone Time spent..." or where the girl sings "Last thing that you need is the new shiny feature All the memories you've shared..." ? both sounds pretty catchy to me
@@amiccus_ I'd disagree with James, I enjoy the vibe. One Thing Left to Try on the other hand doesn't click with me a lot. Either way still great album
i love hexagram, one of my favorite deftones songs its hard to listen to since i had a bad fever dream about it on covid but its generally a great song
God that damn Ariana grande song used to play at my work every single day multiple times and it drove me so nuts I started mocking that hook everytime and now I genuinely enjoy making fun of it way more than I should im resisting the urge to scream Mumbo jumbo that sounds similar because I always thought from the terrible work speakers he was saying show me something super gross sounding
My stepmother and I have a joke of yelling "DAYTONAAAA" over Lux Aeterna because she pointed out it sounds like the music blaring from a Crazy Taxi clone in a Chuck E Cheese and it sounds like the shout of "DAYTONAAAAAA" from the Daytona USA theme
For Max B, I feel like Pusha T’s “Come Back Baby” did it better in regards to cutting from the grimey dark rap to the beautiful singing. Not to mention the song sampled even ties in with the album and Pusha T’s style
Lux Æterna for me is such a funny song. Here in Italy we have a radio station that just plays rock that says that they stream just the best rock music. There's just a bunch of new and boring songs and you can rarely find some classics or some good songs. Between new (boring) Shinedown's song and some white guy with an acoustic guitar trying to do blues but ending up with country there are some really hidden gems. So! A week ago I was watching the TV (the radio has got a channel) and they started to play Lux Æterna. My parents were like "yeah! Metallica is back! Heavier than the last albums!" My sister and I were confused. The thing is that, between all the songs they play, this one is one of the best-
For me, it's both Starships and Pound the Alarm by Nicki Minaj. They both have a great chorus, but then they both lead into an annoying electronic drop. The first time, I was disappointed, and then second time I felt like I had been duped twice in a row.
Even when it was released, I think Pound the Alarm felt like it was trying to be Starships Part 2, and like most sequels, the good parts were slightly less memorable and the bad parts were even worse (including the electronic drops after the choruses - Starships has a drop that's at least unusual-sounding enough to be unique but Pound the Alarm just sounds like a knockoff deadmau5/Zedd clone to me)
I really wonder what brad would have to say about modest mosue's first album "Long Drive for someone with nothing to think about" tundra/desert is fucking amazing, big recommend if you do see this brad or just anyone who sees this.
I was listening to Hexagram yesterday. I understand that feeling about it; it's arguably their most intense, weird and least accessible opener to an album ever, and I used to not be a fan of it (not just for the chorus but the verses too) - but yeah *now* I cannot abide by that. That song is so beautiful and again, strange and intense. It is SUCH a bold and strong opening volley for the album. And yeah the chorus works super well in the context of the song; it's like a payoff to the intensity of the verses almost, but not necessarily a comfortable or traditionally 'satisfying' one.
I can’t agree with the Hexagram take more, that chorus would be good in another song that feels more built around said chorus , but in Hexagram it kills the momentum… That song is still a top 5 Deftones song though
Ik that this song is peak boomer-core (and idk if it would even count because the bad section happens once) but For Your Love by the Yardbirds has such a nice chord progression with cool harmonies overtop, and then the middle 8 comes along and absolutely kills all the momentum and ruins the rest of the song simply by existing imo. Even when it goes back to the good part, it just doesn't hit the same (I do remember the Fleetwood Mac version keeping the Middle 8 section but even tho I still don't like it, I'll give them some credit for actually integrating the Middle 8 section WAAAY better than the original (still should've been removed all together imo))
I don’t think the hook on look at me now is that bad, but I will say that after Busta’s verse, where he’s doing those really quick bars with the powerful line delivery, having that followed up by Chris’ kind of low energy delivery of “Look at me now, Look at me now…” does feel like the energy is brought to a sudden halt for a moment.
I thought that drastic shift in tempo and mood for the chorus in Max B was actually really interesting and satisfying. The music to me gave me the illusion of the feeling of putting on a happy face and having a shred of a moment to yourself before going back. The Eminem song felt awkward to me because the hook itself uses a nursery rhyme melody in a way that's trying to be funny but Eminem's voice and the melody itself is not exciting. I also don't think it's funny

I'm not even kidding, I didn't know Eminem was saying words during the hook, I thought he was just going "VENOOOOM VEN-VEN VENOOOM VEN-VEN-VENOM"
Even reading the fact there's other lyrics in that part, I still can't hear them, all I hear is him repeating 'venom'
one the worst songs ever

I don't think it was a particularly good song but I think it's fair to say We Are Fucking Fucked was absolutely decimated by its hook
After listening to that album recently, I completely agree.
he sings the hook so oddly too it sounds like it’s playing in reverse
I like it if you take Muse as fundamentally kitsch. Like, cod-operatic vocals into “we are fucking fucked”? It’s goofy but seems to know it
I think actually WAFF is a pretty decent song but yeah the hook is laughable

I don’t think the hook on look at me now is that bad, but I will say that after Busta’s verse, where he’s doing those really quick bars with the powerful line delivery, having that followed up by Chris’ kind of low energy delivery of “Look at me now, Look at me now…” does feel like the energy is brought to a sudden halt for a moment.
I thought that drastic shift in tempo and mood for the chorus in Max B was actually really interesting and satisfying. The music to me gave me the illusion of the feeling of putting on a happy face and having a shred of a moment to yourself before going back. The Eminem song felt awkward to me because the hook itself uses a nursery rhyme melody in a way that's trying to be funny but Eminem's voice and the melody itself is not exciting. I also don't think it's funny
