"Loco" is very boring. It has no memorable hooks. It's also embarrassing. That video...oh my god. Holy shit is that hilariously lame. "We are CRAZY!!! And SPOOKY!!!" I can't think of anything more pathetically Nu Metal than a chorus that literally repeats "Me loco!"

"Poem" is like Spin Doctors meets Alice in Chains with some Nu screams and riffing. And...I kind of like it TBH? Easy vote.

A vote for Poem is a vote against Loco.

Saw Coal Chamber 3 or 4 times by accident. I liked Loco and Big Truck. Like White Zombie, they had a female in the band who was a 6 in real life but looked like a 10 with a bass in her hand and nothing but boners in the crowd. I saw the guitar player (Meeks, I think) spit on his guitar tech. That was fucked up.

Plus, a neutered Smells Like Teen Spirit intro.

I’ll vote for the scary clown.

“Poem” because I really like the transitions/bridges and “Loco” is very bad.

I almost feel like “Poem” should be played just a tad slower.

Funhouse horrorshow bullshit is instant point loss for me, more so if clown makeup and/or facemasks are involved. I don't doubt that the people in these bands had the social adjustment issues their music suggested, but neuroses as fashion is a one-way ticket to my shitlist.

Taproot at least sounds a bit more melodic than the usual nu-metal lot. Easy vote.

Both of these bands are really bad too.

Taproot I guess, Coal Chamber is fucking horrible back then and now too. Devildriver was alright for a while there in the 2000's though.

What is this "Loco" song? Damn terrible, that's what. I guess it fits in with a lot of the other nu metal stuff, but it has no redeeming qualities.

"Poem" isn't too bad; it does some nice things with a heavy melody. I can definitely hear some Alice in Chains in the vocals, as LV pointed out.

I once saw the Coal Chamber spinoff band DevilDriver, on purpose.

By "on purpose" I mean they were opening for another band, but I got there early hoping they would be good. They were not.

Loco was kind of fun. Poem was hideous.

My friends opened for Devildriver, which is how I ended up seeing them. I was also forced to hear one song of the band Emmure live before I left to get pizza during their set. Emmure is still the worst band I've ever seen.
