IWrestledABearOnce

Before I go on with this post, the reason why I am covering another song from IWABO is because, like I stated last week, the vocalist for this band changed back in 2012. On my last post I talked about their best song with their present vocalist, Courtney LaPlante. Everyone knows that you can easily change the guitarist or drummer of a band with hardly any change in the sound the band produces, but you can easily tell the when there is a new vocalist, so this week, I will be talking about their best song with their "ex"-vocalist, Krysta Cameron. 

Best Song = "Tastes Like Kevin Bacon"

As usual, it was quite a difficult task to narrow down the choices to one best song from IWABO, but I've come to the conclusion that their number one song has to be "Tastes Like Kevin Bacon". "Why?" Well, Krysta's vocals in this song are stunningly perfect (clean and screaming vocals). When she sings, it's like I'm being thrown out of a car window (I mean this in the best way possible; don't question my analogy, I'm stupid). 

Anyway, the guitars in this song are amazing, everything for the majority of the song is fast paced, and the fact that they used to be a band that didn't take music too seriously makes this song (and their other older songs) a million times better. Also, the music video to "Tastes Like Kevin Bacon" is hilarious (in my completely immature opinion). 

Now, some lyrics that I particularly fancy the most from this song will be listed here: 

"We'll pay, 
we protest,
 we'll pawn off war,
 we all hit the floor"

"Right or wrong,
this is ignorance at its best
we are at war"

"You're such a fool,
ignorance isn't bliss" 

"In the end, all suffer for what we've done 
Liars
We all suffer" 


*I would also like to mention their song called "Karate Nipples". If "Tastes Like Kevin Bacon" was nonexistent, that would be the best song from IWABO.
