I recently introduced my friend to Finn and he started binge watching his videos the icing on the cake is it took him about four videos to realize that his takes/narration are mostly sarcasm and satire, that's how good Finn is at what he does. His sarcasms don't seem like sarcasm at all and I just love that about his content, much love my guy. I am all for it

[@XOChristianaNicole]

I watched Finn last year, and he said a comment - probably about a band I like - that made me be like “Eh, I don’t think this fool’s content is for me. I don’t think I like him.” Though, of course, my autistic-ass didn’t pick up right away just how dry his sarcasm and satire is. Though, never unsubscribed from his channel or Punk Rock MBA. Wasn’t a day that went by I didn’t see his channels recommended on my YT page. This last month or so, out of complete boredom from everything and anything - I decided to watch some of his videos. Aaaaaaand now Finn is one of my top favorite content creators - I always look forward to his videos; especially, cause they are always posted in the mornings, precisely when I wanna listen to this type of content And I can’t get enough of his dry-snark. Which, I find to be hilarious - being I have my own incredibly dry sense of sarcasm humor, and have the same issue with people towards me, as I did with Finn. My autistic-ass definitely qualifies under the “r-word.”

The quintessential butt rock band for me is Creed. The first three albums are classics. Five Finger Death Punch are good too. Their songs are catchy enough. Honestly, I miss the era where mainstream rock bands like these were at the forefront of pop culture marketing. Movie trailers, game trailers, WWE PPVs. Sports games used to have a good ratio of radio rock to other genres. Good times. If this era comes back I'd embrace it with arms wahd opahnnn

​@JoeyVilleneuve YOU know funny thing is but rock has the reputation of being meatheads and having limited knowledge of metal, same can be said about the emo/metacorel/deathcore crowd they also have a limited knowledge of what metal is and also only deem something metal if the entire song is blast beats and breakdowns I know because I have spoken to members of a local band in the core crowd. Mark Tremonti is just as knowledgeable about the history of metal as Sinyster Gates, Bert McCracken, or Howard Jones yet from what I have perceived Metalcore and Deathcore gets more respect for some reason I don't know why they are not more talented! I like both Avenged Sevenfold and 3 Doors Down.

[@Swollen_Goat]

The saddest part about Drowning Pool, to me, is the fact that they lost their vocalist in such a sad way after making an amazing nu metal album, then went full Butt Rock afterwards and it was no way ever going to beat what they had going for them.

@@chrisitalia8868 Well come to the U.K., because none of these bands got any attention in the U.K. As a Brit that loves Nu-Metal and so called “Butt Rock”, the U.K. is the worst place to live if you like that music. Over here in the U.K. were very British music comes first, and if you’re not a British band you either need to sound like you’re British like White Stripes, Arcade Fire, The Killers, Kings Of Leon and The Sissor Sisters, none of those bands are British but they all sound British. Or you need to be so mainstream that’s it’s impossible to not ignore like Guns N Roses, Bon Jovi, Nirvana, Foo Fighters, Green Day, Linkin Park. Bands like Creed, Limp Bizkit, Godsmack, Five Finger Death Punch, Saliva, Breaking Benjamin, Three Days Grace, Theory Of A Deadman get/got no attention over here in the U.K. The only 3 bands of that era that got any attention in the U.K. were Nickelback, Evanescence, and Linkin Park, no other band from that era got any attention here in the U.K. But like I said here in the U.K. we are very British music first and as a Brit I hate British music. But it’s a generational thing. If you’re a Boomer or Gen Xer in the U.K. you’re very British culture comes first. But if you’re a Millennial or Gen Zeder in the U.K. you’re very American culture comes first. Anyone in the U.K. born after 1984 is very Americanised, and the Boomers and Gen Xers can’t stand it.

@@robwalsh9843 Not really no. The thing is in the 60’s, 70’s and 80’s, British culture was at its peak in those decades, be it the Mod Subculture, The Beatles, 70’s U.K. Glam Rock, the late 70’s Punk movement, Football hooligan culture, Pub culture, 80’s New Wave, New Romantics, and Goth subculture. The 60’s, 70’s and 80’s was British culture at its peak. Then 1991 happened and everything changed, suddenly everything was going on in the US in the 90’s, 00’s and 10’s. Nirvana and Grunge, Seinfeld, Jordan and the 90’s Chicago Bulls, Friends, 2Pac and Gangster Rap, Britney Spears, Backstreet Boys, Eminem, Limp Bizkit, South Park, Leo DiCaprio, Jerry Springer Show, American culture was everywhere in the 90’s and 00’s. So the 60’s, 70’s and 80’s was the peak of British culture and if you weren’t there in those decades like I wasn’t, I don’t get it and never will.

I've enjoyed the shit out of butt rock and hair metal, it's just fucking fun, it's an energy and a vibe. And both genres had really good songs and hooks

[@swineherd_]

IDK, I think hair metal had a strong element of showmanship that "butt rock" kinda lacks for the most part. Hair metal bands' penchant for saying, doing, and writing shocking and controversial things was a big part of the appeal of the genre. Their stage presence also played a major role in the genre's widespread popularity. By contrast, the bands commonly categorized under the umbrella of butt rock were not particularly notable for their stage presence and didn't make the effort to craft holistic personas in the way that hair metal artists did. They also weren't doing anything particularly shocking; while they did often have explicit, profane, or "edgy" aspects to their image, sound, or lyrical content, they didn't push cultural boundaries in the way that hair metal bands did. By the time "butt rock" rolled around, our culture had already become accustomed to explicit and "edgy" forms of media, so the "butt rock" bands were not particularly rebellious and were not seen as such. In fact, one of the biggest criticisms of these bands has been their tendency to "play it safe" and generally adhere to trends rather than experiment and chart new territory. This led to detractors of "butt rock" bands to argue that rather than truly creating something new, they simply pander to already existing cultures and scenes in the pursuit of commercial success. Also, these bands don't tend to have a particularly innovative image and their identity is usually based more around the sound of their music rather than any defined image. (There are some exceptions to this - for instance, Three Days Grace certainly had a recognizable image and consistent lyrical themes - but this is generally the case among bands labeled "butt rock".)

I must be a semi-butt rock fan because I never liked any of these bands (Stupid Girl is a great song though), but I like Breaking Benjamin, Three Days Grace, and Shinedown.

[@FrshChees91]

I was scrolling through a butt rock Spotify playlist just a couple days ago, and I was reminded of the song Bullet With a Name. I probably hadn't heard it in 15 years and almost forgot it existed.

[@XOChristianaNicole]

TOTALLY LISTENED TO THAT SONG YESTERDAY.

[@swineherd_]

Fun fact: Rivers Cuomo, the lead singer of Weezer, actually co-wrote "Stupid Girl" by Cold. He even provided backing vocals. Apparently, Cold sought him out after they were in the process of writing the song and the singer thought the guitar riff resembled something you'd hear in a Weezer song.

What?????? Im gullible so please tell me if this is for real.

[@starkiller6856]

The deathcore imitation killed me! Sounded like something my parents would do!

[@nikopappas8484]

I fucking lost it at "typically you'll want the PRS into the Mesa" lmfaooo

[@markbarlow3275]

Dude, 2 of these songs use to be my ringtones. Cold stupid girl and Saving able addicted. Butt rock forever!

[@charliemeyer9492]

We need a part 2😂

Desensitized (Drowning Pool album) The album cover features porn star Jesse Jane. Desensitized shows less nu metal elements than Drowning Pool's previous album, Sinner.

The Mesa Boogie, Dual Rectum-fire is extremely important for Buttrock!

[@jankjaws9815]

Cryin Like a Bitch was for Nikki Six not Vince

[@Pokethememedealer]

I love being a metalhead that also loves butt rock. It causes for some very mixed playlists. You can have Pantera playing and then the next song will be voodoo by godsmack

[@Henry14arsenal2007]

There was only one guy with dreads in Cold and that was Terry Balsamo who later played for Evanescence.

[@jayrific]

I'm fairly certain theory of a Deadman is nickelbacks actual protégé. Like same label, producers mixers all came up from Canada.

[@Coreykoon]

Gah I think I laughed every 30 seconds. You were in your element for this one.

[@jjames6990]

Finally! I've been waiting for my butt to get rocked

[@gretyl914]

Butt Rock’s not my genre but Chevelle is my favorite band. I personally think they’re insanely underrated and miscategorized

[@VikoTheBassist]

Hard agree. I love Chevelle, top three favorites of all time, leagues above these other bands even if some of them do have a lot of great songs. Chevelle never misses, and their music is much more well written, and lyrics are much more poetic

[@gretyl914]

@@VikoTheBassist I couldn’t have said that better! Lyrics alone, they’re superior to most bands in any genre. The way they put songs together is amazing and they are incredible live

[@HimothyBurton]

6:35 I completely forgot about the dayton mma scene 😭 when forrest griffin went to the ufc everybody in the Oregon wore tapout shirts. Bad times, thank you for reminding me

[@williamwiseman8939]

fun fact, "step Up" was in fact the song playing during the end credits of The Punisher movie and also used fo and if im not mistaken was used for a WWE ppv theme songs.

[@brentonm2640]

Hearing you talk about butt rock and thinking about chads rocking out to this "heavy metal" is fantastic

[@pwalker32]

I love these videos for Finn's nodding head and grin. Need a supercut.

[@abelke]

I can’t deny, I do love godsmack 😂 and omg the elden ring drummer 😂😂😂

[@gremlin2550]

I don't know much about subgenres but I have loved all this music sense I heard it as a teenager.

[@godwarrior3403]

I grew up with the UFC and MMA as many of us probably did, so when fin started listing everyone in the godsmack video it took me a minute to realize it's kinda cool he's familiar with that stuff 😂 Idk for sure but I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of music fans never paid attention to that stuff and have no idea who GSP is

[@FinnMckentyPRMBA]

Been training a long time! I’m a purple belt in BJJ
