Rhyme Asylum (one of my favorite UK rap groups) only ever made two albums ("Solitary Confinement" & "State of Lunacy") but I'll keep listening to them because they were dope, sure they never made any other albums but what they put out are classic.

Fake Sound of Progress was the ~only~ good album Lost Prophets made, and if they would have just stopped there instead of making mainstream Emo junk, that would have been totally fine.

You shouldn't care because you're allowed to like and listen to whatever you want. I just personally didn't care for their Emo stuff...

The Fake Sound of Progress was more interesting. How would it feel if The Deftones suddenly decided to start making cheesey sappy Emo music???? I don't think many Deftones fans would stick around for that.

They are as "meh" as Mumble Rap.

When 50 other bands or "rappers" sound exactly the same (or boy / girl Pop bands - or pretty much anything that becomes overdone and ubiquitous) it just starts to get stale. In the mid 2Ks, Emo styled Rock was everywhere and you couldn't escape it -- unless you listened to music from other countries. Japan's "Visual Kei" scene didn't sound anything at all like mainstream western music, and that's why I liked it.

But I'm sure to some people over there - if it's all that they ever hear 24 / 7, it will get stale to them too.

Enjoy whatever you want.

Nobody is going to stop you.

I'm gay and I still like Eminem and D12, despite all the "homophobic" stuff in the songs. Do whatever you want, but even without all the drama around the singer being a Certified Nonce, their Emo material is boring and Fake Sound of Progress was way better.

The Fake Sound of Progress is a good album. It had that "indie nu-metal" vibe to it, and I remember finding Lost Prophets on the old old old "Mp3 dot com" site way before they got signed, before MySpace was even a thing. And then I just kinda forgot about the band for a while and then "Rooftops" blew up and that was everywhere and I just personally did not like the song at all. It felt like your average typical cheesey sellout mainstream Emo stuff.

I get that they had to change and adapt with the times, but the Emo thing just never appealed to me. I liked them better when they were doing cool stuff like "Shinobi VS Dragon Ninja." That was a dope song. "Rooftops" was just not my cup of tea. You know who I do like though? Dredg! Now that's a good, interesting band. That "Green Album" with the wierd symbol on it is fantastic from start to finish.

"Hungover On A Tuesday" is also a damn good song that I can listen to over and over.

Threw you the obvious.....

And you flew with it on your back.

A name in your recollection.

Down among a million same.

Difficult not to feel a little bit....

Disappointed and passed over.

When I look right through --

To see you naked but oblivious.

And you don't....

See...

Me....

But I threw you the obvious.

Just to see if there's more behind...

The eyes of a fallen angel.

Eyes of a tragedy.

Here I am expecting just a little bit -- too much from... the wounded.

But I see, see through it all

See through, and see you.

'Cause I threw you the obvious.

To see ... what occurs behind the...

Eyes -- of a fallen angel.

Eyes -- of a tragedy.

Oh well....

Ohhhh well...

Apparently nothing.

Apparently nothing... at all.

You don't, you don't, you don't see me.

You don't, you don't, you don't see me.

You don't, you don't, you don't see me.

You don't, you don't, you don't see me.

YOUUUUUU DOOOON'T -- see me.

You don't see me at all.
