Seriously, eminem is the best you can come up with?

These guys are a 99.999% ripoff of Cake.

That is one of the worst songs I've heard in a while. Wow.

It does sort of sound like Eminem. Maybe if he were really knocked out on downers or something.

I hated it too. But it kinda grew on me. And I hate 99.99% of rap/pop music.

Sounds like Eminem? The voice is somewhat similar, the talent is not. And man, that's a bad song.

He sounds like the member of linkin park, Mike Shinoda I think is his name. His solo stuff sounds just like that guy.

Not bad. Too monotone for my taste; very Linkin Park-ish. When he's rapping fast his flow is decent, but the slower parts sound awkward. Definitely worth a listen though, especially with the live band backing.

Wait what...nooo...

Listen to Fort Minor and then listen to that. Maybe the voices are slightly similar, but Shinoda can play music and is a decent lyricist.

i like the album :eek:

It's a good album.

It's not bad. Too political though.

I don't mind a good political album here and there.
Also, listening to the album made me like this song less.

i heard that in May in the radio.
terrible. i can't believe the shit that gets signed.
i thought it was more of a Cake ripoff than Eminem.
and furthermore, is it really that impressive that you can 'keep time w/o a metronome', i guess after being in band for 8 years, I don't find that really that impressive a feat...

In Phoenix they have a parody of that song called "Scottsdale Bars". It is disturbingly accurate.

a) Sounds nothing like Eminem
b) Didn't like it first, now I love it.
c) If it wasn't for the horns in it, it wouldn't sound like Cake at all. Not only that, but the rest of the album sounds a bit different from this song.
d) I hate the excessive amount of political messages in the album.

I am hoping there was sarcasm above.

Flobots is Mike Shinodas side project.
