Howard Stern – Points Out That Six Feet Under Suck
On this morning’s (Nov. 28th) Howard Stern Show, they took the time to point out something that most people have known for a while now: SIX FEET UNDER sucks. Here is a rundown of the segment courtesy of a fansite:
Howard had some audio of a band called SIX FEET UNDER (Graveyard Classics) that Richard (Christy, Ex-Death, Iced Earth) gave to him. They cover some AC/DC songs and the singer has a really husky, deep voice. Howard said the guy can’t sing but people buy the albums anyway. Howard laughed when he heard it but the song gets played on one of the stations there at SIRIUS. Gary said Richard heard it on Hard Attack and that’s how he found out about the band.
Richard came in and said that the band is pretty popular. Howard played a few tracks and had everyone laughing at how bad the singing was. It sounded like a goof but it wasn’t. Gary came in and said that he was on their web site and they’ve canceled part of their tour because they’re back in the studio coming up with some new stuff.
Richard said that there was one band who performed like that and they didn’t even have lyrics, they just had a guy making noise in that low, strange voice.
Howard said the band is pretty good but that voice is tough to take. He played a few seconds of just about every track off the album. Gary said he was on their web site and they have a box set which spans their whole 10 year career. Howard thinks that he could sing like that if he had some backing music. Howard thought the singer sounded a little bit like Cousin Brucie. That led to him talking about Brucie who came up to him the other day there at SIRIUS and shook his hand. He said Brucie is friendly now that they’re working together at SIRIUS.
Howard did some of his Cousin Brucie impression and goofed on him a little bit. He said that Brucie is on the 50s channel there at SIRIUS. He said he can’t listen to that music. He said he really hates 50’s music but Artie said he kind of likes CHUCK BERRY.
Howard got back to the SIX FEET UNDER songs and listened to some “Purple Haze.” Fred was playing dog barking sounds as they played that song. Howard also played a Riley Martin song parody and a Michael Richards song parody to the tune of GREEN DAY’s “American Idiot.” He then went into a prank call that Big Foot Mark and Blue Iris made to a guy who was looking for ducks. They told the guy they had ducks in Blue’s ass. The two of them were trying to pick the guy up and he started to play along with them for a short time.
Richard said that he had to thank a fan who sent them a list of people who like to buy and sell stuff, that’s where they got that guy’s number. Howard said he had to take another break but they have the Mexican Delivery Guy game coming up next.
