LOS ANGELES MASKED RAP ROCKERS

HOLLYWOOD UNDEAD
NO one does Rap Rock in the traditional LA real life style than their own Hollywood Undead.All of the Band Members use pseudonyms and Unique trademark Masks most of them based on Hockey Goaltender Designs.They have sold almost 1 million records in U.S. alone and about 1.5 world wide providind them their own arsenal of Fans and making their trademark sign "dove and grenade" famous,most of the fans tattoo the logo along with non fans,those who don't even know the band 

They mix up hiphop with rock and alternative also some dance tunes and totally form rap rock,they also hav manny number of songs which are party based along with the "everywhere i go" and "no. 5" and some of their songs confuse the critics because they sound more serious and destructive like "young' and "paradise lost".The different sound was their record's constant representation in their 1st album-Swan songs

in their second album American Tragedy,they added more diferent music,sticked with their original music base but did less partying songs and resulted more heavy,serious songs so the album has more rock,more pain and more heavy sound in it,the band also experimented with totally different equiptments like synthesizers and acoustic guitars.

Every member of this band is a vocalist, they rap,sing,scream.in some songs all of them sing,in some all of them rap,in some only one raps or sings and in some 3-4 sings or raps while one of them sings the chorus,outstandingly awesome.In "pour me" Johnny 3 Tears and in "Everywhere I go" Charlie Scene has done solo rapping ,where as in songs like "Christmas in Hollywood" and  "Dove and Grenade" the whole band offers the vocals.Guitarist Charlie Scene does vocals in most of the party songs teaming up with Funny Man along with heavier one and Johnny 3 Tears offers vocal contribution in most of the Heavy songs.Former Band member Deuce and presently Danny do the chorus part.J dog does the vocals for fast paced songs like  "tendencies" and "sell your soul".Da Kurlzz Does the Screaming songs rather than rapping like in "been ti hell".

In early 2010 Deuce left the Band because of Musical Differences another ego reasons as the current band members state,Deuce's refusal to many tours,his hiring of personal assistance that band had to pay also created differences along with band's manager's disliked him,he was the one of teh most famous members of the band and has huge fan following.he has his solo album "Nine Lives"  on April 24th 2012 with his outraging music video "let's get it crackin' " which show many nude girls and violent scenes.

The Band has toured with Avenged Sevenfold, Borgore, We Came As Romans, Black Veil Brides,Asking Alexandria on tours like "World War III" and "Buried Alive".

They are up for releasing their 3rd studio album with upgraded masks like they did before their 2nd album,It is one of the most anticipated album of 2012.
