My pick is Five Finger Death Punch and the obvious answer is Ivan Moody. The guy radiates that alpha-male wannabe energy and it definitely rings through all of the songs he has written and performed with this band. The guy is just a prick and a self-victimizing asshole.
I think he’s the primary reason FFDP is mocked so badly.
Honestly… Maynard from TOOL. Tool is my favorite band for decades at this point but if anyone had to go, it would be him. We’d get more albums from Danny, Adam and Justin and none of the snobby asshole attitude MJK brings to the band. I’m not anti-MJK but I’d love to get a version of TOOL without him in the mix.
Tool, (more) instrumental
:)
Hell yeah. 74 solid minutes Danny shredding, spattered across the entire album with Adam, and J-d-o double G takin us on a kickass adventure. Damn that would be sweet.
Yep, I’d buy that so fast…
On a side note, ever heard of Soen?
Maynard is the poster-boy of pretentious.
The very thing so many Tool fans aspire to be, that project this ‘Third-Eye’ that they claim to have and see things that they claim nobody else can see or express.
They say very intelligent things like “you know, the world sucks and the two-party system is destroying us”.
Things that are incredibly common these days.
