Guest Zero_Cool Report post Posted April 5, 2002 I know one of those bands... Iron Maiden. On the music issue. Some themes suck, some don't. However, I do think that they should limit how many themes have "real bands" playing them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest caboose Report post Posted April 5, 2002 the only good original in-house music in the wwf are rocky's, jericho's and benoit's, it just fits their characters so well. well it did until rocky turned suck-up, jericho turned into a wimp and benoit GOT crippled. angle's is good but it was originally the patriot's, booker t's is brilliant but it's over 5 years old an a wcw original. did eddie retain the latino heat on monday?

Guest mickberna Report post Posted April 5, 2002 If commercial music is where the WWF is headed, then I'll only be happy when I hear an entrance theme by IN FLAMES.

IN FLAMES rocks the party that rocks the body." I know who In Flames are. How would you consider swedish death metal that nobody else has ever heard of to be mainstream though? I am not a huge fan of theirs at all. Not really impressed with their delivery. Want some killer progressive and technical death metal from that country? Check out Soilwork.

Guest mickberna Report post Posted April 5, 2002 I only listen to what I hear, I'm not really much of a music insider. Someone played some In Flames stuff for me, and then I saw them do a show in Brooklyn, and I really dig them now. That's all. And I didn't say "mainstream". I only meant commercial music as opposed to in-house production. The last thing I want to hear on WWF TV is more mainstream music. Ugh. The Creed videos (while nice montages) were all the mainstream garbage I can handle for a while. Oh and now that I think of it, tell me if you're heard of Beyond the Embrace and perhaps what you think of them. I'm producing an indy wrestling TV show and I needed entrance music, so I got in touch with them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Someone played some In Flames stuff for me, and then I saw them do a show in Brooklyn, and I really dig them now. That's all." Fair enough. I apologize if I gave you the impression that I was cracking on your taste. I just do not happen to be a fan of In Flames. Nothing against them personally. "Oh and now that I think of it, tell me if you're heard of Beyond the Embrace and perhaps what you think of them.

What kind of music do they play? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest mickberna Report post Posted April 5, 2002 Beyond the Embrace... hmm, well I probably won't be able to make an accurate categorization of their music, but I'd say it's pretty much straight metal with a good deal of guitar harmony and a little hardcore vocals thrown in. They just got signed by Metal Blade, actually. I don't even know why I'm asking you about them, but one of my friends is the bass player, so I guess I'm just curious what someone who is admittedly a metal enthusiast thinks about them. They have some songs on MP3.com, so you could check em out there. Oh and to keep this wrestling related, um... Triple H is a communist. Yeah. That oughta do.

Guest buffybeast Report post Posted April 5, 2002 I think the decline of the quality of WWF's music started with Taker's use of Kid Rock's song, "American Badass." Like someone stated earlier, the WWF is intent on selling their CD's and making their entrance music sound more commerical. It's all about making mo' money for Vince. I absolutely hate HHH's Disturbed version of "I am the Game." In fact, I hate most of these newer themes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest AlwaysPissedOff Report post Posted April 5, 2002 Personally, I'm getting pretty sick of all these bands being used(probably because I'm a rap/hip-hop/r&b fan). Just out of curiousity, I downloaded both Jericho and Benoit's songs from Forceable Grabage and quite frankly, I really hated Jericho's while Benoit's was pretty okay(I still like Shooter better). I think what it is, the music isn't fitting these guys at all. I like the original Break the Walls Down because it was loud and brash just like Jericho's rock star image and when they remixed it, I think that the quality took a real nosedive. Hell, I hate Rock's remixed theme too because it's just too goofy sounding while Know Your Role, IMO, made Rock out to look like a mega superstar because you just HAD to pay attention when it hit. I don't know... maybe it's just my bias against metal/rock&roll/whatever. On a sidenote, Lance Storm should have used his WCW music because it doesn't sound like a damned washing machine and was pretty kickass to boot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest buffybeast Report post Posted April 5, 2002 "I think what it is, the music isn't fitting these guys at all." Alwayspissed, you summed the whole situation up perfectly. When Jim Johnston wrote the entrance themes, it seemed as if he would create a song around the character. Now, they just take any old song and give it to a wrestler, whether it fits or not.

I guess these are all purpose themes. I marked out pretty bad for the Harlem Heat theme on Kids in the Hall though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
