New Bands Round 1 Ween vs Puddle of Mudd

[Vampyr]

Ween

Cold blows the wind over my true love
Cold blows the drops of rain
I never had but one true love
And in camville he was slain

I’ll do as much for my true love as any young girl may
I’ll sit and weep down by his grave for twelve month and one day

But when twelve months were come and gone
This young man he arose
What makes you weep down by my grave
I can’t take my repose

One kiss, one kiss of your lily white lips -- one kiss is all I crave
One kiss, one kiss of your lily white lips and return back to your grave


Puddle of Mudd

So here I am
I don't wanna be by myself
And I think you’re ****ing someone else
now im gonna have to find a way
To take the knife out of my back
And how could you leave me
Stranded in a closet full of bones

I’m always afraid
That you’re gone
Away from me
I’m always afraid
That you’re lost in somebody
I’m always afraid
That you’re gone
Away from me
I’m always afraid
That you’re lost

Maybe you could let me stay
Maybe just for one more day
You could help me stay the same
Maybe things won’t ever change
Maybe we could taste the rain
You could push me out the way

Puddle of Mud. They are pretty good. They remind me a lot of Nirvana

[DimHalo]

I have never heard of Ween. But I don't like their album cover so i'm gonna go with PoM (that and I have liked a couple of their songs in the past)

Because they are Nirvana want-to-be's. They have OK music...I have their albums on my computer...but really, they arent that great. The guy SOUNDS like Kurt Cobain, and he dresses like him. Idolize much?

I'm very very sad to see Ween losing so badly. Most of you probably have never listened to their music, and it's sad that people are choosing Puddle of Mudd over them. Ween really is the superior band...not really a contest, IMO. And dont be too quick to judge them by an album cover. It just seems rather silly to judge them on that.
Puddle of Mudd album cover:



*Sigh*. Maybe some people will show up and vote for Ween and save this battle. Because "if you could save yourself, you could save us all."

and i voted puddle of mudd. only because they're the lesser of 2 evils here.

[Classic Rocker]

They do remind. They are better then the other grunge copycats out there. Creed, Godsmack, Bush, and a whole lot more. So on the grunge wanna-be list they are up there.

[BlueFire]

I don't even know who Ween is.. :P

Don't like Puddle of Mudd too much, but I'll vote for them.

[The Germanator]

This is embarrassing. Puddle of Mudd is just AWFUL. Ween is one the most creative and amazing bands around...Not surprising results here though. People just vote for things that they've heard before. Still sad. Oh well. I'll just have to pray to the Boognish extra hard tonight.

"Smile on mighty Jesus. Spinal meningitis got me down."

[Typhoid]

I know it doesn't matter, and i know i cant, but im switching my vote from POM to Ween.


I've only heard a few songs by them, bt i like them.

I know exactly what you mean. this is pathetic. I've lost all confidence in the accuracy of this Music Battle. Did you happen to read my short rant earlier?

Puddle of Mudd is an average grunge band lost in Nirvana's shadow. And that's at their best.

Ween, however, is original. They are unique, and their music makes you feel like you are actually hearing something special. I cannot put into words my frustration that a band like Puddle of Mudd could beat Ween.

ugh. Disgust.

[DimHalo]

hmm, maybe it would have been more accurate if there were a positive way to know that everyone had listened to at least one song from each band... like putting clips on the web

[Null]

most can have a clip heard for free on itunes.

[DimHalo]

not here ... no itunes for me

[Null]

well, for thoes not willing to make a small download....

tough luck

[DimHalo]

oh well... guess i'll just vote for who I have heard before
