Revolver Golden God Awards - A FUCKING DISASTERPIECE!

HOLY DOG SHIT! What a piece of shit show this is! Who the fuck is the douchebag behind this retarded excuse for an awards show? That would be Tom Beaujour and Josh Berstein! From the horrid show-opening skit by host Brian Posehn, along with Scott Ian, Vinnie Paul, and Ronnie James Dio, to the awkward cutaways to Sirius/XM host Jose Mangin going on like a spastic child, to the lame jokes by Posehn, to the badly-named categories (Honorary Headbanger????? To Kat Von D??????? Most Metal Athlete?????? To Carrot Top?????), to incessant *BLEEPS* from the bands constant use of profanity.... this was a potentially good idea gone horribly wrong! What had great potential to legitimize metal to the masses, and probably sounded good on paper, has become a ridiculously bad joke that has no one, especially me, laughing. Performances by Megadeth, Killswitch Engage, Hatebreed, Suicide Silence, and All That Remains were tepid and dismal at best. Some were edited and abridged, others just plain sucked!

As mentioned above, there are so many things wrong here. Lots of things are going to have to change if this show is to return for a second season. How about actually having nominations and actually reading them out like a true awards show instead of pathetic re-caps in little boxes. Also, get better bands to play instead of second-rate bands from Roadrunner Records' roster. And hire a director and producer with merit who specialize in creating a real metal show. Expand to two hours! Hire a better host that fans are familiar with! GODDAMN IT, DO I HAVE TO THINK OF EVERYTHING HERE?

To everyone involved, do us all a favor and forget next year. The 1st annual Revolver Golden Gods Awards is a disaster and should get a Razzie for Worst Awards Show Ever!


Show Grade: F
