If Korn Were From Hungary…

Ektomorf

Maybe they’d sound like Ektomorf, who will release their new studio album — called Redemption — through AFM Records on February 22. And that’s not a good thing, unless you want to sound like Korn and I don’t know why anyone would wanna do that.

A bunch of blogs have been waxing poetic about this band and that’s probably a strategic move…to get advertising dollars. But I don’t get these dudes at all. OK, they are from Hungary. So what?!? They still sound like fucking Korn. Check them out and tell me that they don’t. Not sure why everyone’s getting all homo about this band…I mean, it’s catchy and bro-gressive shit to be sure — I bet these dudes have a lot of weight-lifting fans. But what’s the big fucking deal?

And why is that dude holding a bunch of gravel from my neighbor’s driveway? Was he outside my house last night? Those dudes probably stand around and fist-bump all day long and talk about nailing chicks.

“Hey dude, doncha hate how, like, sometimes, after you’ve been banging a slut for a while, there’s like this strange foam on your dong afterwards?” “That’s called shit, dude.”

The album — which I listened to last night — was recorded at Antfarm Studios with Tue Madsen producing. I don’t get why they’re so fucking amazing, but would love some insight. From any of you blogs that are sucking this band’s dick right now…what’s so special about them?

    Personally I think these guys sound more like Soulfly then Korn. They’re alright imo. Not great. I’d rather listen to Soulfly though ha.
