In any other election year, this might seem weird.<\/p>\n
Yes, this video is political. I know there are those that “don’t care about politics,” but there’s less than 100 days until the next election. It’s going to be discussed. It happens. That’s just nature, Gunther.<\/p>\n
What does this election have to do with metal? Plenty. Lots<\/a> of musicians have already talked about the election, some<\/a> more ridiculous<\/a> than others<\/a>. All Shall Perish<\/strong> even put out a shirt<\/a> a few months ago that already hasn’t aged well. Words and merch are just that: words and merch. Most of these bands didn’t really go out of their way to write and record music for a particular candidate. There is one band, though, that decided they could not stand on the sidelines any longer. That band is Heene Boyz.<\/p>\n What, you haven’t heard of the Heene Boyz? You actually might have, just not under that name. Does the moniker “Balloon Boy<\/a>” ring a bell? This family, who also appeared on a particularly unhinged<\/a> episode of Wife Swap, created a bizarre hoax saying one of their sons was in a runaway balloon. This is a thing that really happened. Their thirst for fame didn’t stop there as the three sons created a metal band. Desperately clutching on to the last few fading seconds of their 15 minutes of fame, the band has released a new song and video called “The Youth Of America.” It is a pro-Donald Trump song.<\/p>\n Normally for these breakdowns, I’ll make funny comments or references about what is going on in the videos. I’m not going to do that this time. This is so unintentionally funny that nothing I say can top it. I’ve never had such strong “Get off my lawn” feelings in my life after watching this.<\/p>\n
