Greetings, welcome to the 44th edition of "Into the head of..." Today, we spend some time in the cranial cavity of Emoto Wailmon, lead crooner of Sinkin' Park, named after the feeling you get after you realized you blew 15 bucks on yet another shitty album. Let's examine his thoughts as he stars in thought provoking music videos, each strikingly different from one another.
One step closer
Alright picture this : Bunch of white, suburban, emo kids wailing in a lonely tunnel jamming with levitating Asian monks. What a concept!
Crawling
We're all baldies now, we look serious that way. What's better than 5 emo kids implying that they cut themselves? Showing a leggy, pale goth chick getting all beaten up.
Papercut
Feel the rage man? That shit hurts okay? Just so you take us seriously, we'll jam in grandma's basement with the lights turned off.
In the end
Look at my piercing, my lip looks badass. Asian dude : we don't have money for fancy graphics, hope this 80s shit works. Look there's grass growing, and now it's raining. What a clever metaphor for my inner angst. Fuck, hope all this electronic gear doesn't short out.
Somewhere I Belong
Look at my jap toys, I diversify in my search to find inner peace. I'm also going for the contemplative, dark, mysterious emo look here - play along and head bang with me. Why the fuck is the guitarist wearing oversized cans? Must be the noise isolating kind. Fire, mysterious monks, lots of dust and freaky aliens rendered in cheap graphics. We're all about re-invention.
What I've done
Gay, contemplative hipster look. I'm all growed up now, so let's splice some mature stuff - Gandhi, JFK, Somalia, that chap who makes awesome gyros. Nothing expresses pain like my back up vocalist going "na na na na na".
Leave out all the rest
We're in space bitches! Nothing like cutting myself in the upper atmosphere. We've come a long way - from bitching about shit in an empty tunnel to crying in front of a solar flare.
Coming up : Concept album!!
Bonus - Every episode of Nick Canon's Wild 'N Out
I'm a brotha, I'm too khoooooo
