not really. the fact that they just rip off of other bands work. their latest beatles album cover. of course they're not talented enough to write their own music.

Joy Division, of course. Ian Curtis was a manic genius. Dead Souls, Love Will Tear Us Apart, Atmosphere, etc.

Lou Reed is very clever and sharp with lyrics, especially the more political songs he wrote on the album New York - Strawman, Dirty Blvd., Hold On, etc.

Then you've got Pink Floyd obviously... take the whole fucking load of Dark Side Of The Moon or The Wall. The older songs with Syd Barrett like See Emily Play are also sick.

Why didn't Nick Jonas go instead of Michael Jackson?
Why didn't the other 2 go instead of Farrah Fawcett and Billy Mays?
WHY!?

Pink Floyd's lyrics are the best.

HIM has the best lyrics

This is all interwoven between one guy screaming and one guy singing harmonically. It sounds amazing. This is one of my personal favourites of Alexisonfire, but I haven't seen a song where the lyrics are two-bit, 5-minutes jottings on a piece of paper. Part of the fun of the band is the complexity of the lyrics.

I agree AOF is an amazing band. They actually have THREE vocalists. The particular song you posted isn't one I'd consider one of their best though.

I'd go with something along the lines of .44 Caliber Love Letter, Crisis, or This Could Be Anywhere In The World.

lol yeah they do.
Saw them live with them.

Tool. They make me smile.

Why hasn't anyone said TISM? I don't know for me it's definitely between them and Cake. I'd probibly go with Cake though.

Lord Worm era Cryptopsy.

A part of Adeste Infidelis:
Oh come all ye unfaithful,
Decaying and wretched,
To this Cradle of impiety
To lay your impure heads

Fare thee well
Or fare thee ill:
One way or another
Some blood shall spill

What to do?
Enter? Cremate
All those who've died from all the hate
From this Execrable Aggregate
That nurtures the corrupt?

Proselytes,
Anchorites,
Crusaders, wet me with your Cathar kiss

Bow to them?
Crawl for them?
Those loathsome Mahometic effigies?
No!

I like A Day to Remember's lyrics.

Steely Dan, once you've interpreted them.

I like Moby more than any other band out there.

August Burns Red writes beautiful lyrics.
Once I'm 18 I'm probably going to get some of them tattooed.

Not only do they sound fucking awesome, but they have alot of good humor in they're songs.

That. And The Flobots.

to me i think the flobots are similar to rage against the machine but without the funk and replace it with a more hip hop beat with a little bit of ska thrown in.

System of a Down sucks.

Chop Suey lyrics are trash.

Father into your hands, I commend my spirit? Oh god give me a fucking break. ( Pun not intended )

The Bloodhound Gang, by far.

Foxtrot Uniform Charlie Kilo:

Vulcanize the whoopee stick
In the ham wallet

Cattle prod the oyster ditch
With the lap rocket

Batter dip the cranny ax
In the gut locker

Retrofit the pudding hatch
Ooh la la
With the boink swatter

If i get you in the loop when I make a point to be straight with you then
In lieu of the innuendo in the end know my intent though
I brazillian wax poetic so hypothetically
I don't wanna beat around the bush

Foxtrot Uniform Charlie Kilo
Foxtrot Uniform Charlie Kilo

Marinate the nether rod
In the squish mitten

Power drill the yippee bog
With the dude piston

Pressure wash the quiver bone
In the bitch wrinkle

Cannonball the fiddle cove
Ooh la la
With the pork steeple

If i get you in the loop when I make a point to be straight with you then

Put the you know what in the you know where pronto

Pink Floyd, Yes, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Who.

i'm going to have to go with blink-182 because there songs are like storys, and there just great

For me it needs to be Mindless self indulgence, Immortal technique and Rage against the machine.

Pink Floyd probably.

When they're not doing 6 minute interwoven instrumental passages and 4 minute guitar solos that is.

The only message I ever got from a Killers song was "Never buy a Killers album".

Seriously, the lyrics are fucking mindless.

thats a fairly tough question.. good one... as for me... i could arguably say the Dave Matthews Band

At the Drive-In had great lyrics. One-armed scissor FTW.

The Arctic Monkies (Monkeys?) are in my opinion
"And I've seen him with girls of the night, and he told Roxanne to put on her red light..."

This. Right here. Best lyrics ever.

COCK JOKE

Symphony X, kamelot. I <3 Metal.

After SOAD broke up, I think Serj Tankian is awesome. Probably one of his best songs is Empty Walls. YouTube it, the video is great as well. But his whole album "Elect The Dead" is just amazing.

Damn, Im listening to it right now!
