After hearing songs like "Been to Hell" and "Hear me now" I became a fan of the band. I'm seeing alot of gained maturity here and I'm liking it.

Is the bad news that it's still coming out? LOL. "Hear Me Now" isn't TOO bad though. Let's not go there. The track "Back to Hell" is actually not as awful as the two other songs they've released from this album thus far. I still think the band is awful, but you can download the song for free on their website. www.hollywoodundead.com/

A song called "Coming Back Down" is on Mediabase's Pop format's Cool New Music section. All I have to say after listening is "Ew." What a contrived, soggy, faceless song that is. Seriously, where did they find this high-voiced pansy of a new singer? This song coming from the band that puffed up their N.W.A. influence while claiming they never really listened to Linkin Park and Limp Bizkit. Uhh...sure guys.

Yeah, this new singer sucks hard. "High-voiced pansy" is a pretty accurate statement. He actually makes Deuce look good.

Is it not Danny who's featured in the Choruses of Hear me Now and Been to Hell?

In that case. I'm not sure what's wrong with him on Coming undone. I reaqlly liked his vocals on the other two songs.

Seriously, where did they find this high-voiced pansy of a new singer? He was actually on American Idol, too, but failed to make it past the second round. Skip to 4:56. A "soulful, contemporary R&B" singer, apparently... Yeah, this is really him.

Been hearing "Coming Back Down" on a Sirius FM Pop station the past weekend. It sounds terrible, but sticks in your head.

I think I'm probably the only one on here who actually enjoyed the album.

A "soulful, contemporary R&B" singer, apparently... Yeah, this is really him. Dude sang in Lorene Drive, made it to the second round of American Idol, and is now displaying his "soulful, contemporary, R&B style" in Hollywood Undead. Sure he's making some money now, but he can't seriously be musically satisfied in HU now. At least he had the good taste to (presumably) sing "If I Ever Fall in Love" (possibly "Comforter"?) for AI.

Hence the unintentional hilarity of the song's title in relation with the Lorene Drive singer's intentions! Namaste, Lisping Hibiscus

Strong single, good album. Not as consistent as swan songs, but the hits hit hard. Been to Hell, Tendencies, and Levitate are all very good. Coming Back Down is good for what it is -- a grasp at pop success.
And, the year's best song with awful lyrics award certainly goes to Comin' In Hot which is a gloriously epic hot mess. (Best line: "We drink so much goose, we turning into geese, me and my crew flap a V through VIP...")

Wow I thought this would've died before it would make Top 10; strange it hasn't reached Top 20 on alternative. Seems like active rock is more welcoming of rap-rock music than alternative is these days.

Crap. First, I actually considered charting this song last week. As in, it was almost in the running for my Top 60-ish chart. (Though only the Top 40 is "official.") Then when it came on the radio within a couple of days, I didn't change the station; I turned it up. It was then and there that I became aware that this song has become an undeniable guilty pleasure for me. I am ashamed. I fucking know better than this. :(
