Title: Let's Play A Game: Name the subject of this review

Ok ok ok, I'm bored at work, but this is pretty self explanatory.  Try to guess the band/book/movie that is the subject of a review, and then copy down an awful review of something else.

I'll start:

Album Review
This is a reminder of what a force of nature (XXX) were at the cusp of the new millennium. These nu-metal provocateurs polarized as many listeners as they galvanized with their ham-fisted hybrid of white-boy rap, dance beats, buzzy guitars and bluster. But underneath it all, (lead singer of XXX) had the heart of a philosopher, dispensing advice and twisted-up homilies that attracted a legion of disaffected listeners who suffered from their own self-image problems. (lead singer of XXX) blazed a trail of negativity and humor, creating a group primal scream in these 17 songs that helped fans blow off steam instead of blowing up buildings.

Let's see what other great reviews are out there!  :tophat

Album Review:
Huntington Beach's G-Punk (that's "Gangsta-Punk") bad boys deliver a new album that sounds a little like Urban Dance Squad's "************" on steroids. With earthquake rhythms, screaming guitars and vocals more beefy than a San Diego burrito, (*****) redefine Rap Metal's boundaries.

Here's another one. :)

Album Review:
**** ***** continues to question himself, creating the interesting mix of self-loathing and bravado that resulted in world record sales in excess of 29 million -- even non-fans can hum "**********" The band's third outing is a little more adventurous, with Peter Frampton-esque voice boxes, fat but sludgy riffs and a surprisingly elegant slide guitar on "*******." The lyrics are more poetic and injured, touching on matters of abuse, complicated relationships and, once again, the fear of dashed dreams.

:lol

The first one, without any research, is probably referring to Linkin Park.

I'm kinda stumped Maji lol

The first review might be a bit hard.

But the second one, if I give too many hints it'll be too easy.

Hmm...
Creed or Nickelback?

I need to wash my hands just typing that.

One of your choices is correct. Pick the correct one!
