Song's great, but the bad green screen etc is just....Wow. His eyes look cool at the start though.

I'm pretty sure the cheesiness, awful green screen, etc is a tongue-in-cheek homage to Evil Dead, which in itself is cheesy and has really aged special effects.

Metal music videos are pretty bad about 90% of the time anyway.

I actually really liked the video... then again, I'm a big Fozzy mark, so maybe I'm biased. Whatever. Back off my band!

Jericho's band is stupid. That's the impression I've always got from them. Does anyone know how they are received in the metal community, among people who don't even know of Jericho's wrestling career? I have never seen them as a legitimate band, only something for Jericho to live out one of his dreams. |

I NEVER took Fozzy seriously. And I'm curious of people who don't follow or even know of Jericho's wrestling career think of his band.

I've never really enjoyed Fozzy aside from Sandpaper to be honest. I think it's cool that Jericho's living his dreams as a rockstar, but I kind of find most of Fozzy's music to be really bland. Is the appeal just from the live shows?

I have never seen them as a legitimate band, only something for Jericho to live out one of his dreams. They're generally well-received from my experience, though there's not many who aren't aware Jericho is a wrestler. For the most part people who look down on wrestling tend to look down on Fozzy. |

Yeah, the green screen cheese looks intentional.

Fozzy is simply awful. The general Metal Community has no opinion of them because they aren't a big deal. They are hardly even a small deal. They have toured, played crap venues as headliners and done the same as curtain jerkers. They have also played a respectable amount of festivals but that would likely be their biggest claim to fame.
For a band that has been around for over 10 years, they haven't accomplished much. Good for Chris Jericho being able to live out his fantasy and all but I wish more people would be honest with him. I understand some out there legitimately like what he is doing and that is fine (to each their own) but I liken Fozzy as being to Metal what the Insane Clown Posse is to rap.

No one is saying Fozzy is in the same league as other big metal bands or anything, but their success is still greater then 99% of other metal bands.

Well they were register well during Edmontons Grey Cup Festivities in 2010 by Edmontonians. The thing is most of those people who aren't aware of Jericho thought of Fozzy more of just another hillbilly post grunge/hard rock band from Canada part of the My Darkest Theory of a Nicklefault machine.

Metal community doesnt give to shits about them because they will also be known as "That wrestlers band" and the fact that they started out doing horrible covers of classic metal tracks as a joke band didnt do them any favours when trying to act serious on later albums
i saw them a while ago thanks to knowing their manager
the crowd was made up of marks in Y2J shirts and Local indy wrestlers
