Peep this 17 year old's Brokencyde, Dot Dot Curve, and Hollywood Undead tats

I fully support getting shitty band tattoos when you are a teenager. I have several, including a Morbid Angel one that I got from Chris Chisholm (original guitarist in All Out War) in a girls' kitchen circa 1998. That was spectacularly bad judgment on my part, but I am going to say this bro has me beat. He is 17 and currently has the following tattoos:

"Yea I'm The Sex," a song by Indiana-based DIY Crunkcore pioneers Dot Dot Curve

His caption from MySpace: "scratched in my leg represent hollywood undead." Sweet, they rule. But, uh, what IS this??

And of course his "BC13" Brokencyde tattoo. This is going to look even better in 5 or so years, don't you think??

He also cites "Heathe Ledger" as his hero and writes poetry like this:
My Life....

My life is dead, my heart has bled
I wake up to this hell, undead
I feel ive fucking lost my head
So shedding blood, i lay in bed
The phone is screaming, am i dead
Or just insane with all my pain
My eyes are dry, will it rain
Course through my veins leaving stains
Of lonliness and little bliss, fuck this emptyness
Crush my pills, i feel im ill
I snort them up, i hold a forty
Forgetting names, am i to blame
Now in this flame, i feel ashamed
Everyday alone in fear without my dear
I hear ringing in my ears
As i fall asleep in my fear, hold me near
Depressed and stressed, alone i rest.
Check out this bro on MySpace

My room mate has Hopesfall lyrics tattooed, and i thought THAT was bad... The only thing comprable to THIS shit is a friend of mine who's all 'Mr CrustPunk' has some shitty punk tattoos from highschool that include The Casualties, The Unseen, and Blanks77.

But seriously, I wish I could be a fly on the wall in 5 years when this dude is trying to be some hipster altbro and explaining his tattoos to the guy/girl he's trying to sleep with.

More proof that I am NOT crazy (by that i mean old) and that these kids do in fact SUCK.

Robert H said...

I'll bet this guy pulls in massive amounts of tail right now though.

Still, he better get his fill while he can. Soccor moms aren't going to be impressed with that shit in 15-20 years.

Just fucking kill yourself and spare the rest of us from being subjected to your pathetic drivel and terrible tattoos of horrible bands.

I just got a siqqqq chest tatoo from Chris just a couple months ago. He's a regular reader of Metal Inquisition(so is pretty much everyone else at Halo) and was psyched when he was mentioned in one of your previous posts.

i don't want to believe this is real :(

I totally admire both his dedication to scene bands and his killer poetry. He's a real wordsmith and will go places with that kind of grasp on the English language. I can't wait to see him emptying trash outside the mall food court in five years.

In a few years the cool kids will be laughing at the "old dude with the gay tattoos" and asking him who the fuck Brokencyde is. Unless he catches hepatitis or the flesh-eating thing from scratching shit into himself like that.

Do today's scene kids have some kind of aversion to food and exercise? I ask because the ones I see all appear to be woefully undernourished.

Matt from Denver said...

H8OverRate is right on.

I know that tattoos won't keep you from getting "real" jobs like they would have 15-20 years ago, but tats in places you can't cover up with normal indoor clothes (hands, neck, face) still do. It'll be interesting to see if those kinds of tats become popular enough that banks have little choice but to hire guys like this bro as tellers.

Darsh said...

I say "Yes." to the tattoo/job question. I live in Austin and I see people with visible tattoos everyday with normal jobs.

Jake said...

I'll second Darsh's comment. I'm from the Austin area, too, and tattoos are pretty common here. That might be an Austin thing, as we have a reputation as a "weird" city, so I don't know how it is inother cities/states.

Marne said...

Wow- I dont frequent myspace very much but that dudes profile is a bit too insane. How do you even stack photos on top of eachother as a background? Wait, I dont care.
Sarge, do you regret your slap-a-ham tattoo?

Guav said...

Sarge, did you ever get the tweet I faxed to your pager about the HU tattoo?

The Worst part about the dot dot curve tattoo, is the fact that he used that stupid metalcore font that 15 year olds use at my school on their flyers, that is promoting their shitty attack attack imitation band. Also i'm pretty sure it's created in micropaint or some mediocre computer program like that
