RIP Rap Rock: A Conversation with Colin

[@AlecWalworth]

Papercut definitely my favorite song

[@tomrobbin92]

Hybrid Theory! My first ever album and ten plus years later it's still amazing, so many great tracks.

[@kilhakilla]

Linkin Park was the first band i got into. still one of my favorite bands.

[@BeastSlayer14]

Beyond!

[@gwmufasa]

This is my favourite episode so far. Brilliant!

[@schwabdizzle]

Thank you guys..........BEYOND!!

[@hero_in_deepblu]

I wish these got more views, Colin is awesome and everything he has to say about these topics is fucking fantastic.

[@LastLevelLounge]

I love this series, I love Colin, and I love 311.

[@Ch1zzuh]

I adore these videos. Keep up the good work guys.

[@wtm121]

Disco has been back for years, it's all the dance music on the radio with rihanna, calvin harris, deadmau5 and we love it

[@illaskthequestions]

Break Stuff By Limp Bizkit to this day is still my super happy song. No clue why, it just makes me super happy to sing along with it.

[@Saylerjesse]

+jonnybeauchamp dude that song gets me so pumped and im never ashamed of it!!!!!!!!!

[@rhode2nowere]

Suicidal Tendencies is my favorite rap rock band. Best song from them IMO is 'Nobody Hears'. And thank you Colin for turning me onto another great band.

[@nicknancs]

Great episode of Metal Evolution goes through all the rap rock stuff, touching on what made it popular all the way to its fall from popularity. It's the Nu-Metal episode! Worth a watch!

[@dementedavenger2784]

311 is one my faves to. Grassroots. Music. Blue Album, and Transistor. all incredible albums. Sound System was decent, but From Chaos is when they started going down hill.

[@TheKevlar4]

They changed music forever and moved a generation that's impressive even if you don't like their music.

[@ImARocker75]

great to see colin talking about music

[@brianmarkley2845]

Man, the beard makes Colin look so much older! Lol but long live Rap Rock!

[@gattsocean]

Hybrid Theory is still one of my favorite albums. Nice to see that some people aren't being "hipster" about things.

[@bahiabhai]

Beyond! Loved this topic, Colin now I know that we have common ground on music & I also know that you play the guitar. So can you please upload a LP or RATM cover... but please make sure Greg is not doing the vocals haha. Lastly I wanted to ask who do you like more Chester Bennington or Mike Shinoda? Im more of a Mike Shinoda fan myself.

[@alexanderchilton911]

The Hunting Party has some rap rock songs

[@Ledjar]

Disco actually continued in Europe long after it ended here. There's still new disco albums coming out in Europe. After 1979 what disco became here was the early stages of house music. So technically music with an 'untz untz untz' 4 on the floor 4/4 time signature is just a distant relative to disco.

[@SolidOcelot]

Colin! Listen to Hyro da Hero. Guys from At the drive in/The Mars Volta play with him. Good stuff imo.

[@Suflysflash]

yeah all of these conversations are taped in the same day

[@Hylander101]

RATM is still one of my fav bands and Colin is right Zack zack de la rocha is a incredibly intelligent guy, watched some really interesting interviews with him in the past.

[@aaronjg77]

Bomb track

[@SoupDetective]

I just found Hybrid Theory in a box and listened to it the other day. That album fine.

[@EmersonArtwork]

Colin - 311?! Nice! My car license plate was 311MUSIC for 3 years - love those guys! Also d

[@maddoggnick96]

Disco made a slight comeback in 2013 with Daft Punk, and Arcade Fire to a degree.

[@YearOfTheSwagon]

you really need to emphasize SLIGHT because they had influence of disco. I do, however, heavily enjoy Daft Punk and Arcade Fire's Reflektor album is sublime.

[@themarshanperdcerst]

SHOOTYZ GROOVE!! Colin knows wtf he's talking about. I can't believe he said that.. awesome.

[@RealityMinusMe]

Birth, School, Work, Death - Hyro Da Hero - the best modern day rap rock music

[@bjorninb]

I'd love to hear Colin's thoughts on the state of hip-hop today. A lot of people think it's all crap (because it's too mainstream), but in my opinion there are still great rappers out there. You just have to dig through a lot of mediocre stuff to get to them.

[@Zeldaschampion]

The Bee Gee are fucking awesome, rofl and that's when Greg's head exploding made that starting sound instead.

[@mitsunari1908]

Awesome video guys!

[@Lifebertarian]

Hard to beat Jay Z/Linkin Park's Collision Course, but my favorite rap rock song (and Collin would appreciate this) is "Stick 'em up" by Quarashi.

[@nicksword87]

I find a lot of people hate Limp Bizkit... Until Break Stuff comes on. Then opinions change temporarily. Like most people though. Rap rock got me through high school. Will always love listening to it all.

[@SeaBearsRAR]

Hey Colin, have you heard of the band Sonic Boom Six?

[@MusiqueMeltdown]

haha disco came back! daft punks new song plays on the radio all the time, and they said themselves that the were going for a disco vibe on their new record.

[@ymalklk]

Can we have one of these live at comic con ?

[@danzip53]

I love ratm and saw them on their reunion tour but don't quite understand why that means I should love the entire rap rock genre according to Colin

[@ChrisGiordano]

He did, but they recorded multiple episodes over a couple of days so this was shot pre-head shave.

[@willy709]

What a character

[@T3hD4rkKn1ght]

YES.

[@Weirdreviewsnerd]

I loved the talk about Rage Against the Machine and the mention of Chili Peppers. Not many people think of them as rap rock, because they're not anymore, but their early stuff had a lot off rappin' in it...So I suppose early Chili Peppers or RATM is my favorite rap rock...

[@Lotsoffun111]

The first two Linkin Park Albums were great! After that they went downhill very fast! The Bee Gees were also very popular in the 60s and they then changed huge, Barry Gibb became the lead singer as the high voice guy, before there music was very sad.

[@Hicksenhiemer]

Those hot rap-rock intros for Trials Evolution XD That's the goods

[@tylergarrettthe1st]

I really dig Dirty Wormz. Been a fan of Limp Bizkit and Linkin Park since they started. Still buying their records today. Love that shit.

[@ImARocker75]

he is gonna EXPLODE!, lol but greg said that they won't talk about video games would love to see it though... BEYOND!!

[@NateBuildingBricks]

My favorite Rock Rap group is DC Talk.

[@DiogoExMarques]

Beyond! How many episodes did you record that day?

[@benjaacorona]

Disco came back with Daft Punks new album

[@NerdBriefs]

I still catch myself playing HED PE's song Raise Hell. Easily one of my favorite rap/rock songs.

[@kersingi]

Greg, you beat me to saying these wounds they will not heal.

[@pietro91xzero]

you keep trak of the dish washing liquid? never mind that, they need a new sink

[@headknocker2020]

Colin is a 311 fan fuck yeah. 311 and Tool have been my favorite bands since I was little which is pretty funny because they are polar opposites.

[@ZeroSum23]

Tool and 311 are not polar opposites.

[@headknocker2020]

ZeroSum23 sure

[@ZeroSum23]

headknocker2020 I'm glad we agree.

[@headknocker2020]

ZeroSum23 sure

[@ManYetNo1]

wheres your ic/avatar from. that key is broken in my keyboard sorry lol

[@HiImtoast]

Rap Rock Has Been Back For A Few Years now with Gym Class Heroes, Vonnegutt, and most recently Kids These Days

[@Nilly-tube]

Papa Roach came on shuffle while I was working out the other day. I was pumped.

[@RS-Plays]

Loved linkin park then still like them now. Hybrid theory has been on my top played for a good few years now!

[@darthsqueek]

Look up a band called Hacktivist, they're by far one of the best Rap-Rock bands out there.

[@RedNosePitbullMT45]

RHCP.... best band ...ever

[@opivy217]

I like these videos, however I don't understand why it bothers me to never see the dishwashing liquid change volume

[@KasparaTaeso4558]

I'm so, so sorry...

[@gochewie]

Limp Bizkit's version of Mission Impossible theme is still on my playlist. What a terrific song. Fort Minor (w/Mike Shinoda out on his own) was still close enough to Linkin Park. No love for P.O.D.? And the best mashup ever? 'Collision Course' with Linkin Park and Jay-Z. Six tracks of awesomeness.

[@nastyninja50187]

Don't HOPE it comes back Collin, engineer its return!

[@protomelvin]

Greg brought up A-Teens. I was JUST listening to the episode of Podcast Beyond with the hypothetical abortion! LOL

[@nickmontoya1]

10 years later, and he was right. Limp Bizkit’s back babyyyyy

[@XSystemIDX]

They definitely started out as a rap rock band.

[@PTSDirections]

Hybrid Theory is a great album. also love hip-hop and metal, but people look at you 'no you can't love both genres'

[@LastMinuteStudiosXVI]

Again, Colin is 100% speaking my opinions!

[@iiixySaTnAfLaNiF]

Conversation suggestion? Books vs Kindles, Nook, (etc.)

[@MondayNiteMiller]

Colin if you have never heard Hollywood Undead, you should really check them out. They are a perfect mix of rap and rock.

[@KaizoGC161]

funny colin brings up linkin park, ive always thought he looked like that one guy lol!!

[@Tetsou18]

I like disco.

[@The_Redback]

Disco has come back and re-invented itself in the band Scissor Sisters. There is other disco groups as well but its just not as popular and never will be as big as it was in the 70s.

[@Mugenis4real]

Disco is on the comeback.

[@iceveiled]

these were all filmed previously in bulk. Greg probably didn't even know he had the cancers when these were done.

[@TheNinjaShteve]

I still love both of Linkin Park's first two albums, and the remix album of Hybrid Theory. I have to defend my opinion on this far too often

[@LuisEmilioSanchezAguilar]

nice one, i like this kind of topics :)

[@vbbcl217]

I am just waiting for the three hour episode when greg just says "Square Enix"

[@XanderHDD]

be-bebe-BEYOND!

[@OverkillAJ]

Who plays guitar?

[@skatedude74]

rhcp started out as a rap rock band pretty much

[@Bocchetti]

Everyone seems to forget about Deftones

[@_mjc_]

"shattered" by the stones was probably the first case...

[@OrangeCatGlow]

The Bee-Gees are fucking awesome.

[@wyansas]

My tastes have changed and I don't listen to rap rock now, but I still have a soft spot for old Beasties, Chili Peps, and Rage Against the Machine.

[@GIN0rmous]

You're absolutely right, but what he's saying is that you shouldn't say "punk music sucks; just look at [new punk band]," and then turn around and say, "the Ramones are awesome".

[@aaronjg77]

Bam

[@broceratops1337]

the beegees IS fucking awesome

[@TheKevlar4]

Anthrax and Aerosmith planted the seed for rap rock though.

[@SebLinn]

Yeah, they started the Rap-Rock thing just like RUN-DMC did with Aerosmith, but later Ice Cube did something with Korn, Korn got more popular then Deftones got more popular same thing with Limp Bizkit and then Linkin Park with a debut album who sold 24,2 MIllion $! :D

[@GIN0rmous]

DISCO IS BACK!!!!!!!!!!

[@SlipknotWarfare73]

papercut, in the end and lost in the echo by linkin park freedom, bombtrack and bulls on parade by rage against the machine nookie by limp bizkit so what cha want, sabotage and root down by beastie boys all awesome songs

[@bouchonaise124135]

disco is still selling out arena's. it's all over Daft punk/ Justice/ BreakBot/ Cut Copy's stuff.

[@BiggTonyStyle]

amber is the color of colin's energy

[@ACF2011ful]

Limp Bizkit- Gold Cobra is pretty awesome

[@weezerxmas]

what about faith no more?

[@TravelWright22]

this is good

[@UmamiDeBoi]

Fuck yeah, I love Colin's opinions on shit like this. I don't really agree with his politics, but that doesn't stop me from being a huge fan of his.

[@MrBallmer]

I knew he was going to say Limp Bizkik, I don't know how just did.
