Teeny 'The Killers' wank at Amazon.com
I was browsing Amazon.com and came across this tiny but wankilicious piece of, well, wank, masquerading as informative customer reviews for The Killers – Hot Fuss.



Copied and pasted for those too lazy to click the link. All bolding is mine.

The drama begins when Steve-o and GREENDAYSUCKS post negative and poorly punctuated and spelt reviews of 'Hot Fuss':

Rock? My Ass, September 22, 2005
Reviewer: Steve -o "Steve-o" (Des.Moines, IA) - See all my reviews
Im tired of hearing about how all these new bands are being put in the category of Rock or Punk Rock. How can anyone even compare this Pop Crap to Rock? Im sorry but rock in roll is not about some girlfriend who looked like some boyfriend, that just means the chicks a cross dresser or shes really ugly and this band is talking about how jealous they are of her with another guy? what the hell? And im a song writer and its hard to come up with some good lyrics but who in the hell rights about that? COME ON! Rock is suppose to be about the Guitar Solos and lyrical combintation, the Drum Solo's, hell, even a bass solo, and alls this crap is some guy talking about god knows what, yeah, hes not even singing! there is NO talent in just steping up to a microphone and talking into it, come on? wheres the vocals? I can do that, its not that hard. This cant even be considered punk rock, GREENDAY IS PUNK ROCK, these guys are in the category of TALENTLESS CRAP. Rock N'Roll, PLEASE Come back! we need you more then ever now! Show this crap what REAL talent is!

now comes the best part...the poser wannabe rocker clicks no on this review and tries to stay tough......try listening to some Zeppelin you posers


Fair enough, you may think. They’re allowed their opinions. Apparently not. Matthew L. Boese has a few issues with the reviewers:

The Killers is a great band. They bring something really different to the table. They have fresh new lyrics, and good catchy songs. In response to Steve-O and GreendaySucks, the songs are good enough to carry the cd alone, but despite what these jokers say, the lyrics are definetly different, clever, and all in all, good. He says that rock is not about a girlfriend looking like a boyfriend, or whatever, rock is about what ever the hell the person writing it wants it to be about. These clowns are still stuck in the 70's as one of them claim in his review that Led Zeppelin is real rock, and according to him if you listen to anything newer than the 70's, your a "rock poser". Rock is not all about long drawn out guitar and drum solos, yeah sure there kool, but if you have a 2 minute drum solo in every song, it tends to get old, fast. Anyway, i am a true rock fan, unlike these close minded fossils, that are still hung up on Zeppelin, i am a huge fan of Zeppelin myself, but i am open minded enough to give other genres of rock a chance, i listen to bands these guys have prolly never even heard of. You should rate a cd or band on how good THEY are, not how well they stack up against your favorite band. My favorite band is Killswitch Engage, if i were to compare The Killers to them, they would get an automatic 1. So guys if your not gonna give a fair review to new bands then i think Eric Clapton has a new cd out you can praise. Steve-O you also claim to be a songwriter, have you ever sold a song, no..? Oh.. I didnt think so, so until then shut up and quit acting like your something your really not. To be honest, anyone with a creative mind or a bottle of Jack can be a songwriter, and you claim its hard, maybe your just a simple minded old man.? And change your name man, Steve-O is kool, your a deusche, if steve-o knew you were stealin his name and being a deusche with it, im sure he would kick your old ass. Well The Killers cd is a great cd for anyone who is looking for something new, or is already a fan of the genre.


And now the spooge really starts flowing. Steve-o posts in OMG RETALIATION!11!! to set the record straight (I’m sure he’s breaking some interweb rules here, but I have no idea what they are):

RETALIATION (Not a Review), September 26, 2005
Reviewer: Steve-o (Des.Moines, IA) - See all my reviews
To Matthew L.Boese:
1-I am 18 so dont even call me an old man when most likley your older then I am
2-Have you ever sat down yourself and Tried to write a song? Oh...I dont think so, yeah so shut the hell up if you dont know what the hell your talking about. TRY and write a song, it takes a lot of concentration and you have to be creative, the whole reason I started writing songs was because a friend of mine died, which makes it that much harder for me, so think before you say stupid crap like that.
3-I admitt Steve-o is a cool guy, but he DOES NOT own the name Steve-o, its just a nickname his friends GAVE HIM they same way my friends gave me the nickname Steve-o, and we're not the only to people to use that nickname.
4-Im intitled to my own opinion just like everyone else is, am I sitting here critcizing people for liking the killers? No, alls I was doing is voicing my opinion so you can shut up on that point aswell
5-When the hell is the last time you've even HEARD a drum solo on a recording thats not live? Yeah thats right, so how in the hell can they get old when harldy anyone does them except on live shows or albums, but its not everyday you get to see a concert
6-Led Zeppelins a great band yea, but your saying im stuck on them? they're not even in my top 100 bands to listen to
and if you absolutley have something to say, say it to my face.


Well, that certainly told him.

*Sits back and hopes pleads for waits for Brandon Flowers icons*
