@finn, since horror goes hand in hand with metal, will you consider horror movie tier list or horror character tier like you did with teen movie tier? Love your tiers, they're legendary 😃👍
Finn, dude, I enjoy your commentary, but you have to be deranged or an absolute troll to say Box Car Racer did the mid 90s Post-Hardcore sound better than Quicksand. I hope you're one of both.
I don't think Slipknot heard Stone Sour and thought "This guy's gonna make us famous", I think they thought "We need another singer, and we live in fucking Iowa. This guy will do."
I can't get enough of Finn...he has, without question, the worst taste in music of anyone I regularly watch, and I just can't get enough of it. He always gets me triggered and my blood pressure up, screaming "Oh fuck off! Maynard is awesome!" at my phone... sincerely love his content...
I wouldn't say he has the worst taste in music. I think he has pretty good taste, but you're not going to like everything. I think you guys need to relax a bit, have some fun.
One of the most underrated side projects is "Ibaraki" by Matt Heafy of Trivium. It is a mixture of black metal, melodic death metal and hard rock. It's surprisingly good and proves just how talented Matt really is.
"True story, A man walked up to me-- big guy, strong guy, tears streaming down his face--and said, 'mister President, sir, Finn's tier lists are the greatest tier lists in the history of the world'. Seriously. This is what people are telling me. Everywhere I go, people are saying this."
true story: my cousin, who died of cancer a weak ago, on his death bread said to me the following words with his mouth. "Finn's tear lists are A-Okay". no joke man, still brings a tear to my eyes.
The song they were playing in the video is too, I don't know how people were saying "THIS ISN'T MUSIC", what a bunch of assclowns with no taste in Finn's chat
YES! Each album has gotten better V was decent, Conditions huge step up, Money Shot AMAZING, ER is Perfection. This dude don't know what the F he's talking about. Doubt he actually knows any songs minus a single or 2
Murderdolls was cheesy fun and they never took themselves too seriously. I always enjoyed them. Never liked Stone Sour though, always thought they were bad radio/butt rock.
agree 💯💯💯. "i love that "Acid Inject" and "Come home" are back to back on that "Oni" album. Darko is waaaay underrated IMO. yes, the drums are programmed (and that's why they sound amazing) and they're pretty eclectic for a deathcore group. I'm a fan.
putting APC in S Tier was a good move in my opinion. Emotive album with the dude who did sound design for the SAW movie was a 10 simply for Counting Bodies Like Sheep. Really impressive track and Maynard, whilst being sampled, sounds so amazing on it.
I would actually love to see Nailbomb on the list (Max from Sepultura and Alex Newport from Fudge Tunnel)..people who who enjoy 90s sepultura might really like it
Fun picks. I liked Boxcar Racer, too, but they were not better than Quicksand. They were just easier to sell to teenagers. Some suggestions for Part 3: Temple of the Dog, Mad Season, Only Crime, Me First and the Gimme Gimmes, Kingdom of Sorrow, Damn Yankees, Pinhead Gunpowder, etc.
The love for nu metal won't stop... seen an article with the top 5 quintessential albums... your thoughts Korn - Korn Limp Bizkit - Significant Other Slipknot - Slipknot Defrones - White Pony Linkin Park - Hybrid Theory
I made the mistake of trying to sip my coffee right when you said “they don’t give a FRICK” and now I have to clean my phone screen. Excellent as always!! More gaming tier lists!!
I really liked that one song by Fort Minor, "Where'd You Go", and I like that song by BOB feat. Hayley Williams. Oh, a really old side project was when Eric Clapton did Derek and the Dominos, and made "Layla" with Duane Allman playing slide guitar. I guess you could say that Cream was a side project in the first place, since The Yardbirds was the first band that Eric Clapton was in, I think. That means Led Zeppelin is a side project too lol
Fuck yeah tier list, reminds me of grandma's classic Vicks vapor rub and raisin cobbler Fun fact for you Finn, my friend worked security for big gigs and after parties for a while, so naturally he's a 6'3 muscle monster and was at an after party and didn't notice midget Maynard walking near him with a drink and accidentally body checked the little oompa loompa over a white couch
Seriously though, check out Legend of the Seagullmen. It's a side project with Danny Carey from Tool and Brent Hinds from Mastodon, among others. The title track is catchy as hell, with a silly surfabilly vibe. Brent Hinds had another decent fez-wearing, surfabilly side gig before Mastodon called Fiend Without a Face. Good stuff.
Because I know how much Finn loves Neurosis, I'm throwing this one out there: Corrections House...is the collective compulsions of Mike IX Williams (Eyehategod), Scott Kelly (Neurosis), Bruce Lamont (Yakuza), Sanford Parker (Minsk) and their minister of propaganda, Seward Fairbury. Crossing My One Good Finger is a banger.
That first DRUGS record was pretty good. To give credit where it's due, it's also the bass player of Story of the Year (Adam), drummer of Matchbook Romance (Aaron) and guitarist of From First to Last (Matt). It was a pretty good lineup of musicians back then!
Them Crooked Vultures album is so damn good. I wish they would have made more. Also, Puscifer has some really good songs, but a lot of the older stuff is kinda hit or miss. Money Shot album is the best IMO.
V is for Viagra (remix album) has some good tracks too. Really enjoy Puscifer. I think Conditions of my Parole is my favorite. Their shows are also a great time.
I was a huge Murderdolls fan, but the guitarist got locked down for a long long time before I had the chance to see them live and by the time they regrouped, I had no interest in them 😅
Hopefully on the next volume you'll include Son of Sam, the "At the Drive in" side projects (Sparta, Mars Volta), Two Tongues (Chris Conley and Max Bemis) or even the multiple Alkaline trio side projects(Heavens, M.S. and the Sekrets, Dan Andriono in the Emergency Room/Bygones) Black Audio, XTRMST, Dreamcar (Davey Havoc) United Nations, No Devotion (Geoff Rickley) Head Automatica, Color Film(Daryl Palumbo) and who can forget Cobra Starship.
When I was 9 I thought "Omega" by Stone Sour was the deepest thing ever recorded. It is so cringe in hindsight. Also, there's a pretty good baseball player named jazz chisholm and I can't hear his name without thinking of Tommy Lee.
The first killer be killed album was the shit when I was in high school. When I heard about it I was expecting something gnarly and got my moms favorite new band
Boxcar racer is amazing. So sad they only ever did one album to be honest. Although the self titled blink album did take some good inspiration from Tom's boxcar sound.
I can understand this opinion, I just disagree. BCR feels like less effort and money was put into it, but it's also kind of charming that it's kind of a minimalist Blink. Come to think of it, BCR doesn't really have a lot of na na na's in it. That might be the real big difference between the band and side project.
Them Crooked Vultures is pretty badass and same with Prophets of Rage. I grew up listening to Them Crooked Vultures and then Prophets of Rage came out I think when I was just getting out of high school
Them crooked vultures honestly had 1 good song and some decent songs. I was actually lucky enough to get tickets at retail to their show at the wiltern in l.a. loudest show ever
I liked Them Crooked Vultures. Listening to it now, it does sound like music used in commercials. At the time it didn't feel like that. In 2009 it seemed that commercials were using barely known indie artists. I also didn't like DRUGS (besides the single) in comparison to Chiodos.
You you just called Boxcar Racer the best moody post hardcore band of all time. Finn. Have you been missing your counseling appointments on BetterHelp?
As entertaining as always 😅! Maybe include The Fake Names in a later edition?. Featuring Brian Baker (Minor Threat, Dag Nasty, Bad Religion), Michael Hampton (S.O.A., Embrace, One Last Wish), Dennis Lyxzén (Refused, International Noise Conspiracy, INVSN), and Johnny Temple (Girls Against Boys).
I'm sad that you cut out the part where you dissed tom morello of not even being able to finish a poli-sci major and instead he took fucking social studies lol. I get it, it's a time thing but that was the highlight of the stream to me lol.
I’ve been jamming the hell out of an album from the 90s by a side project called Handsome. Some members of Helmet, Quicksand, and Cro Mags. Whole album jams 🤘🏽
I remember when stone sour came out i bought the album and my friend came over i was listening to 30/30-150 and my friend was like who is this when i said stone sour he said oh i thought they were all boring acoustic stuff like bother
2:15 WHOA WHOA WHOA. I've been on board with a lot of your hot takes since the SYWH days, but I think I gotta draw the line at Quicksand disrespect. I love Boxcar Racer, but it's definitely not Quicksand or "better" imo
Blink-182 is the expectation to the statement of : most bands doing side projects aren’t great. Due to the fact that: I love box car and transplants but have never been able to get into blink ( outside of a handful of a few random songs but I really have to be in the mood for them). AA is alright and I like what I’ve heard by +44 just haven’t put much effort into +44 though. They broke the mold by making good side projects lol. Also Chad from new found glory’s solo side project was good when he had it going but think he’s stopped as well as NFG as a wholesaler side project as the ISHC. Wuv from p.o.d. Has a pretty good side project with fieldy from korn ( think wuvs doing it full time tho either left p.o.d. Or has been taking a little break since they’ve been having some friends fill in on drums for some tours the last however long). Comeback-kid started as a side project for Jeremy and Andrew of figure four and look where that’s gone since then. Always hear good things about blaqk audio ( Davey& jade - AFI) but haven’t really listened much. Also the supergroup that davey is in with tony from no doubt and others is interesting haha I don’t really have an opinion on that project due to all I’ve seen it live videos with crummy audio so hard to judge (dream car?).
I want more Box Car Racer so badly. I'm excited for Tom returning to Blink and I enjoy Angels & Airwaves, but more Box Car at the same level of their only album would be amazing.
That Big Dumb Face album (him and his brother screwing around) is a blast, but it's not quite fair to mention them and not Black Light Burns -- Wes' serious project.
I walked into this comment section like wow, what a big comment section this is. The most tremendous collective of people here to save our genres. Loving Finn we call him, Loving Finn, he’s a great man, whether you agree or not.
Stone Sour Demo sounds like my front door neighbour who wanted to sound "up to date" with his band in 1994 ... the guy was really cool, but looked like Lars in 1989 ;)
Every Blink-182 cult member is going to hate me for this one but: all their side projects > blink lol. Have never been able to get into blink but all their side projects strike my fancy ( haven’t listened to much +44 but like what I’ve heard and angels and airwaves isn’t the highest in the side project rotation but would probably pick over blink). Ironically toms vocals in blink get old to me after awhile ( if I dabble in a blink song the random off chance I put one on. They tend to be Marc on lead voc and Tom are back up) but I love boxcar lol it doesn’t make sense to me because of not being the biggest fan of toms voice so it may seem hypocritical but it is what it is. Think it’s due to him slightly singing different on the boxcar album?. But yes come at me with the hate lol. Used to hate blink when I was younger but now they’re just whatever even if I can’t get into them outside of a couple songs but I have to be in the mood ( odd that I don’t like blink since I love pop-punk and all the bands they’re friends with and probably some that they inspired also love Travis’ drumming as well as marks bass and vocals ).
I agree with a lot of this. Puscifer is definitely an acquired taste. The more you make yourself listen the better it gets, but… you have to really really really give it a chance.
If you do another one of these videos, here's a few side projects I've come across over the years: The Almost (Aaron from Underoath), Pinkly Smooth (Brian & Jimmy from Avenged), Bayonet(Buddy from Senses Fail), Speak the Truth... (Buddy and most of Finch), We Are Harlot (Danny from Asking Alexandria), William Control (Will from Aiden), Aaron West & the Roaring Twenties (Soupy from The Wonder Years) & The Postal Service. Some are good, some not so much, but they're all interesting in their own right.
Boxcar Racer and Transplants first LPs still hold up this day. I am sure in 1999 people didn't have "Tim Armstrong will collab with members of Blink-182" on their bingo cards.

RIGHT he is infuriating
YES! That's exactly how I see him. I just have to laugh but still can't stop watching.
Bro picked probably one of the worst crooked vulture songs to play. So many great tracks on that record.
@@Crysta1Pisto1 that’s what is so fun about it, he knows that he’s doing this and it’s fucking hilarious
I wouldn't say he has the worst taste in music. I think he has pretty good taste, but you're not going to like everything. I think you guys need to relax a bit, have some fun.
"I would rather listen to Puscifer" add that to sentences you never thought you would hear
One of the most underrated side projects is "Ibaraki" by Matt Heafy of Trivium. It is a mixture of black metal, melodic death metal and hard rock. It's surprisingly good and proves just how talented Matt really is.

@@AlwaysAudacity Thanks Always audacity, very cool!
Then you have to do the Trump side-to-side arm movements...his "angel wings"...hands turned out...
I think Finn creates Tier lists just to mention Methods of Mayhem so he can say "shoot my jizzy jizzim".
true its come up a few times
Lmaoooo oh fuck I'm dyinggg
Big if true.
I think he started his career for that reason
“Half of you have a GED you’d be thrilled to get a b” Jesus Christ that line had me rolling
Puscifers album "Conditions of My Parole" is so amazing
Agreed!!
The song they were playing in the video is too, I don't know how people were saying "THIS ISN'T MUSIC", what a bunch of assclowns with no taste in Finn's chat
"Money Shot" is also great, idk what Finn is on rn
@@abadtime3319 his music taste is pretty shit most of the time let’s be honest. Guy jerks off to MCR but thinks Puscifer is terrible.
YES! Each album has gotten better V was decent, Conditions huge step up, Money Shot AMAZING, ER is Perfection. This dude don't know what the F he's talking about. Doubt he actually knows any songs minus a single or 2
Wes Borland's Black Light Burns would be the side project to focus on.
If fin's tier lists are his best content then our minds would explode if there was a tier list of fin's tier lists
That's an incredibly good idea, Finn do this
Bruhhh
Inception of a tier list
Hell Yeah Brother! As a PRMBA elitist, that'll be too of my list
"Hotdog Rock" is genius! The description had me rolling. 🤣
definately, however i am never in a good mood if i pay 18$ for a beer
Why do I love it so much when Finn describes his emotional state as "whelmed"? Like istg it never gets old.
Murderdolls was cheesy fun and they never took themselves too seriously. I always enjoyed them. Never liked Stone Sour though, always thought they were bad radio/butt rock.
Prophets of Rage is worse than Puscifer, and that’s SAYING something.
I think the Stone Sour demo sounds good in my opinion
yeah i always liked superskin
“Michael Moore directed it, Jesus” is probably the perfect reaction.
I think the story why Travis is in Boxcar racer is because Tom really want to hire a studio drummer but to save money, he took Travis instead.
Never once have I heard A Perfect Circle referred to as butt rock, but first time for everything I guess lol
I think he’s throwing out that term for anything early 00s
When Finn does his research, he's great....he didn't do that for APC.
@@adamtaylor5274 he don't know Sh!t about APC or Puscifer both are S Tier .. This dude needs to go try and make music ..
Surprised you haven't mentioned Darko US. Clear S-Tier in my mind. Honestly one of the most fresh sounds in metal at the moment.
damnit, i was just about to comment this
agree 💯💯💯. "i love that "Acid Inject" and "Come home" are back to back on that "Oni" album. Darko is waaaay underrated IMO. yes, the drums are programmed (and that's why they sound amazing) and they're pretty eclectic for a deathcore group. I'm a fan.

Gotta go deeper on Killer be Killed. The song IED is anything but “Hot Dog” rock.

Great Album
Hell yes! Gravediggaz is awesome
Be a witness! As I exercise my exorcism! The evil that lurks within.... the sin, the terrorism... (love Gravediggaz)
D.r.u.g.s. was MATT GOOD of From First To Last side project, how could you forget about him, he also moved on to be a pretty good producer
Finn and Kyle Kulinski do the best Donald Trump impressions on CZcams😂
Killer Be Killed is just amazing power metal. It sounds like they tried to make a joke band but just came up with non stop bangers.
I think Corey Taylor was just the only other singer in Iowa at the time aside from Anders Cohefini. Their options were limited to say the least.
I really liked that one song by Fort Minor, "Where'd You Go", and I like that song by BOB feat. Hayley Williams. Oh, a really old side project was when Eric Clapton did Derek and the Dominos, and made "Layla" with Duane Allman playing slide guitar.

“The time is coming. Coming like the dawn of a red sun. If you fear dying, then you’re already dead!”
One Day was really good imo!
Fuck yeah tier list, reminds me of grandma's classic Vicks vapor rub and raisin cobbler
Fun fact for you Finn, my friend worked security for big gigs and after parties for a while, so naturally he's a 6'3 muscle monster and was at an after party and didn't notice midget Maynard walking near him with a drink and accidentally body checked the little oompa loompa over a white couch
Hearing the Murder Dolls just brought back memories of listening to the Peppermint Creeps. 😂

That first DRUGS record was pretty good. To give credit where it's due, it's also the bass player of Story of the Year (Adam), drummer of Matchbook Romance (Aaron) and guitarist of From First to Last (Matt). It was a pretty good lineup of musicians back then!

Them Crooked Vultures album is so damn good. I wish they would have made more. Also, Puscifer has some really good songs, but a lot of the older stuff is kinda hit or miss. Money Shot album is the best IMO.
V is for Viagra (remix album) has some good tracks too. Really enjoy Puscifer. I think Conditions of my Parole is my favorite. Their shows are also a great time.
I think the best side project these days is darko u.s
They kinda made thier own genre
Finns face when he saw Mikey Moore was directing. . . Priceless
I was a huge Murderdolls fan, but the guitarist got locked down for a long long time before I had the chance to see them live and by the time they regrouped, I had no interest in them 😅
I wouldn't consider Stone sour as a side project when Stone sour was Corey Taylor's first band, a band he stepped away from to work with Slipknot.
Hopefully on the next volume you'll include Son of Sam, the "At the Drive in" side projects (Sparta, Mars Volta), Two Tongues (Chris Conley and Max Bemis) or even the multiple Alkaline trio side projects(Heavens, M.S. and the Sekrets, Dan Andriono in the Emergency Room/Bygones) Black Audio, XTRMST, Dreamcar (Davey Havoc) United Nations, No Devotion (Geoff Rickley) Head Automatica, Color Film(Daryl Palumbo) and who can forget Cobra Starship.
At the Drive In is excellent. I dont even like Mars Volta.
A shame drugs did not have a bigger run. I was really digging them back then! And it has held up pretty well.

I really liked those first 3 Stone Sour full lengths. They lost me with the concept album stuff though.
The first killer be killed album was the shit when I was in high school. When I heard about it I was expecting something gnarly and got my moms favorite new band
I love the follow up as well
Them Crooked Vulture is S tier and you know it, Finn!
I still believe that Corey Taylor would turn Slipknot into the worst Hummer commercial buttrock if the other members of the band would let him
Lol blacklight burns is wes Borland s serious side gig 😂
Good video
Big Dumb Face is great. Its so stupid its amazing. Also, his brother was in it.
Boxcar racer is amazing. So sad they only ever did one album to be honest. Although the self titled blink album did take some good inspiration from Tom's boxcar sound.
When ever I listen to their record I shed a little tear because they only gave us one release :'(
It's one of my favorite records ever..
Black Light Burns - another Wes Borland’s side project, is pretty good. Lie is great and catchy, the rest is not as catchy.
Talking about Wes Borland, his other band Black Light Burns was really great IMO
S Tier for Box Car Racer? You just keep getting better and better, Finn! ❤
I actually like Box Car more than Blink. Angels is pretty close in 3rd
Box Car Racer was my jam in high school. It feels like the better version of the self titled Blink album style.
Blasphemy
It’s the truth. Self titled is blink’s most boring album
I can understand this opinion, I just disagree. BCR feels like less effort and money was put into it, but it's also kind of charming that it's kind of a minimalist Blink. Come to think of it, BCR doesn't really have a lot of na na na's in it. That might be the real big difference between the band and side project.

That Big Dumb Face album (him and his brother screwing around) is a blast, but it's not quite fair to mention them and not Black Light Burns -- Wes' serious project.
You’re killing it Finn! Thanks for the video
Thank you for watching!
Loved murderdolls first album!
Remember buying it for my CD Walkman with anti-shock for £17/$35 back in the day, album is still catchy/cheesy.
I walked into this comment section like wow, what a big comment section this is. The most tremendous collective of people here to save our genres. Loving Finn we call him, Loving Finn, he’s a great man, whether you agree or not.
Stone Sour Demo sounds like my front door neighbour who wanted to sound "up to date" with his band in 1994 ... the guy was really cool, but looked like Lars in 1989 ;)
I think we can all agree Prophets of Rage is the purest form of cringe imaginable
Every Blink-182 cult member is going to hate me for this one but: all their side projects > blink lol. Have never been able to get into blink but all their side projects strike my fancy ( haven’t listened to much +44 but like what I’ve heard and angels and airwaves isn’t the highest in the side project rotation but would probably pick over blink). Ironically toms vocals in blink get old to me after awhile ( if I dabble in a blink song the random off chance I put one on. They tend to be Marc on lead voc and Tom are back up) but I love boxcar lol it doesn’t make sense to me because of not being the biggest fan of toms voice so it may seem hypocritical but it is what it is. Think it’s due to him slightly singing different on the boxcar album?. But yes come at me with the hate lol. Used to hate blink when I was younger but now they’re just whatever even if I can’t get into them outside of a couple songs but I have to be in the mood ( odd that I don’t like blink since I love pop-punk and all the bands they’re friends with and probably some that they inspired also love Travis’ drumming as well as marks bass and vocals ).
Blink is way to simple pop punk. Awful vocals and too many ‘samey’ dumb songs. Easy way to print $ I guess - don’t overestimate your audience.
Prophets of Rage probably doesn't work as well as RATM because 1. No Zack, and 2. Tom is just a rich lib.
I agree with a lot of this.
Puscifer is definitely an acquired taste.
The more you make yourself listen the better it gets, but… you have to really really really give it a chance.
GN'R is slash's side band he tours with and makes music with Slash ft Myles Kennedy and the Conspirators
GN'R is the best side project live band
You, Craig Owens, Gate keeping, I didnt even know who he was until you gate kept.
If you do another one of these videos, here's a few side projects I've come across over the years: The Almost (Aaron from Underoath), Pinkly Smooth (Brian & Jimmy from Avenged), Bayonet(Buddy from Senses Fail), Speak the Truth... (Buddy and most of Finch), We Are Harlot (Danny from Asking Alexandria), William Control (Will from Aiden), Aaron West & the Roaring Twenties (Soupy from The Wonder Years) & The Postal Service. Some are good, some not so much, but they're all interesting in their own right.
Best side project is definitely a perfect circle
The Wes Borland band sounds like that scene "Knights of the Round Table" from Monty Python but it comes off non ironically.
Boxcar Racer and Transplants first LPs still hold up this day. I am sure in 1999 people didn't have "Tim Armstrong will collab with members of Blink-182" on their bingo cards.
Finn, can you include Richard Kruspe's from Rammstein sideproject Emigrate next time?
