Ok now, what the fuck.
Prove that it was a publiciy stunt.
No. You can't, can you?
And how does making music with meaningful lyrics make them "manufactured emo shit"?
Fucks sake, all you people complaining about bands that most of us DO like are so fucking immature and just depressed that you're not talented.
So all you moaning "metalheads" are the the real "depressing emos" in my eyes cos all you do is moan about everything.
So yeah, rant over.

SHIT (reply)

HOW DARE YOU! They have been together for 10 years now, and have been on tour for more than 2 years straight! They work extremely hard and deserve our time, money and our votes for Best Rock Band! How can you say that when you don't know anything about them... you probably haven't even heard the name of they're first album you piece of scum! I have been on this site voting for them all day... and each time it asks me why they are the best band ever I come up with better reasons! You should be ashamed of yourself! NEVER EVER say things like that if you don't know JACK-SHIT! Every award they have won they deserve! If you have something to say, say it to a therapist you ASS!

30 Seconds To Mars are amazing!

All this "manufactured emo shit" is out at the moment because people enjoy listening to it. Many of these abnds are gritty and hardworking. 30stm get my time and money as i enjoy listening to them due to the fact that they are all great musicians and are brilliant live. i bought front standing tickets for £15 at Brixton Academy - expensive? NO Fuck Off

Hey. News Flash, EVERY HARDWORKING BAND IS EMO! SURPRISE!! Emo=EMOTIONAL! DUH! 30 Seconds to Mars IS NOT a publicity "stunt"..why the hell do you think Jared didn't want his picture on the record?! HE DOES NOT WANT PEOPLE TO LISTEN TO THE BAND JUST BECAUSE HE IS IN IT! His music touches people, yeah..that's emo? OF COURSE IT IS! Music wouldn't even exist if everything was played emotionless! God people! LEARN TO THINK FOR YOURSELVES EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE!! AND LEAVE THE BAND THE HELL ALONE! They are doing what they love, JUST LIKE EVERYONE ELSE...only 30 is doing it BETTER!

Right RAWbabe, if Jared didnt want 30 secs to get successful because of who he is then why does he appear in the videos? and why do their videos look like trailers for feature films. If it wasn't for who he is then no one would give a f*ck about them as they are rubbish

Why shouldn't he appear in the videos for his own band. He's obviously proud of his music, but who wouldn't be. They aren't rubbish, i really cba arguin tho coz it wud be such a waste of time

If you don't like 30stm, don't click on the freakin link to the news story? Go read about a band that you like and spend your time productively. You've clicked on a 30stm link looking for a fight over the internet, that's way more pathetic than anything you can say about these fans.

Secondly, Jared is a frontman to a band. He has every right to be in his band's videos. That's like saying now that Gerard Way is famous, he shouldn't be in MCR videos. It doesn't make sense. Or that Gerard Way should write his comics under a different name because he's famous for doing something else. Jared has every right to be in his band's videos, because he's proud of the music he's made.

And maybe their videos look like feature film trailers because that's the style they like? Jeez. How many videos lately look like feature films? That's just what's working for bands just now.

well, how can you say shit like that...why the f**k do you generalise? when i first started likeing them, i heard them on the radio and didnt even know he was in it...hell, i didnt know who he was til AFTER i was a big fan of the band.They have put so much effort and hard work into everything, look at 'a beautiful lie' they are trying to promote that we should care for our environment..."manufactured" how?????

It just seems like you are just jealous of the bands awesome talent!!! if you dont like them, then dont listen to them, why waste your time saying how rubbish they are????...sounds like denial to me...

besides, dont tell me where to spend my money. if i want to "waste" it on 30stm its my money, my choice, and i gladly would.

Besides why shouldnt he appear in the video, he writes the lyrics too, hes he vocals...whats your problem???? Why shouldnt he deserve the credit???

30 seconds to mars

firstly, if you dont like 30stm then dont comment cos quite frankly no one cares, all i ever seem to read is info on how 30 stm are shit and blah de fucking blah. secondly, every show that 30stm have done recently has been a sell-out and i dont think edinburgh will be much different. I think they are a hard working band (especially with leto being an actor and the fact that Matt Wachter left.) I have been to 3 30stm gigs and everyone has been great and im looking forward to the edinburgh gig just as much so please... stop commenting on how bad you think they are and start paying attention to the bands you do like cos i'm sure your time is better wasted there than in a forum full of 30stm fans!

they do not always get bad live reviews, they were late for the dublin show becaues the bad weather held the ferry up! so dont go talking BS, tickets are cheap as fuck i bought mine for £13 each if thats expensive i'd love to see what you class as 'cheap' they were on time for the shows i went to.

I've seen them live.
Tbh, I hated them before I saw them live. Like, I mean actually despised.
They converted me to actually liking their music and liking Jared.
So don't go complaining about the live shows.

all bands

MY EARLIER MESSAGE WAS REGARDING MANY BANDS NOT JUST 30 SECONDS TO MARS. BUT I DONT APPEAR TO BE ALONE. I REMEMBER WHEN KERRANG MAGAZINE USED TO BE ABOUT THE MUSIC NOW ITS A ROCK VERSION OF HEAT

i too agree with what NATE says about Kerrang! I think it has lost its original value and meaning and i too believe that this "emo craze" has gone too far. Although i have a 30stm tattoo i do believe that true metal/rock bands do not always get the credit they deserve, nevertheless i defend 30stm when i say that their music is what matters, not people love or hate for leto.
