By my count, Peacey P goes solo in the song for ~63 seconds while Taranchula sings on their own only for only a third of that, mostly doing back up or chorus work. Begs the question who is featuring whom here? Mesmerickiwi

Woah

Is it me, or this sound very similar to the style of Linkin park? (metal with rapping) SI.com!

Not at all, Linkin Park is emo rap, Taranchula is death metal. Linkin Park is almost screamo, except you can tell what they're saying. Taranchula's words are dark and difficult to understand, but by no means screamo. Gulstab 16:09, 18 August 2008 (UTC)

No, but I mean in: metal+rap+random logo insertions in music video. SI.com!
Linkin Park isn't metal, it's hardly even "rock". Gulstab 16:09, 18 August 2008 (UTC)

Don't try to 1up me, I think we can all agree that Linkin Park and Taranchula sound nothing alike. Gulstab 16:09, 18 August 2008 (UTC)
As mentioned in the article, the idea for this video stems from the soundtrack to the 1993 movie "Judgement Night", which featured various metal/rock and hip-hop/rap groups collaborating. I can't imagine Chaps Bros. had Linkin Park in mind when they created this. If it sounds similar to you, good on ya. Maybe mention that in the forum for more, shall we say, consructive responses.

Mention the missing "critique" portion

I think a someone should add an explanation for the cartoon's end, where you see The Cheat's disappointment of not being commented on the video, maybe refer to Rap Song, Everybody to the Limit, etc

Good point. User:Chipwich

Reference?

Could the rap/metal mix be a reference to bands like the devil wears prada who cover songs like still fly? Though one's a cover and the other is a featuring it has a similar outcome. Wecannotbesaved 19:40, 18 August 2008 (UTC)

Paws

I don't know about anyone else, but i really don't feel comfortable saying The Cheat has "paws". Lets just be safe and keep it as "hands". -TheTeach!
