The Band who Mocked Charlie Sheen before it was Cool

Have you heard of Hollywood Undead? If not, you should give the Los Angles band a listen. They sound similar to 3Oh!3 and remind me a little of Jamie Kennedy & Stu Stone. This past Monday, Marques asked if anyone was looking forward to any new releases. Zune Nation member Razor70 responded with anticipation of Hollywood Undead’s new album, American Tragedy, which came out this past Tuesday. This took me back to 2008, their first album Swan Songs, and the music video below. To me, this song put Charlie Sheen on the “lyrical” map.


Hollywood Undead - Everywhere I Go

Charlie Sheen! Considering his past antics, the lyrics seem fitting right? However, the Charlie Sheen mentioned in the video is actually Charlie Scene, a member of Hollywood Undead. Similar to the pun the duo Gnarles Barkley used with the name of the basketball player turned NBA commentator, Charles Barkley, the same type of word play is at work here. Now, how did we get to this music video from the mere mention of Hollywood Undead on Twitter? You see, while “Everywhere I Go” is from their previous album, there are songs on American Tragedy that mention Charlie Scene, “Gangsta Sexy,” and evoke the same type of out-of-control ethos, “Comin’ in Hot.” Listening to the new album, with fresh mentions of Charlie Scene, gave my memory the jolt it needed. Even if you do not have tiger blood or Adonis DNA, you should download American Tragedy.
