Yeah, okay. Whatever.

This seems to apply more to the dumbass who hasn't even paid attention to the fact that Serj is pretty much rapping in a nasally hokey Jim Carey-esque way half the time. I.E. You.
Unless you're going by some abstract definition of "progressive elements," I'm pretty sure the incorporating of unconventional instruments counts as one. I don't know what those songs are supposed to suggest. Do they sound like nu-metal? No, not really. Does it sound like Serj is trying to rap? No, not at all. His delivery is such that it isn't meant to be the important part of the song. Oh, and here's the lyrics, in case you want to try to make something out of them:

Quote:
Peters pecker picked another
Pickle bearing pussy pepper,
Peters pecker picked another
Pickle bearing pussy pepper, why.

Meeting john at dales jr.
Winked an eye and point a finger,
Meeting john at dales jr.
Winked an eye and point a finger, why.

A former cop, undercover,
Just got shot, now recovered,
A former cop, undercover,
Just got shot, now recovered, why.

Fighting crime, with a partner,
Lois lane, jimmy carter,
Fighting crime, with a partner,
Lois lane, jimmy carter, (siren).

Aa ee eh aa eh aa oh
Aa ee eh aa eh aa oh, why
As we light up the sky.

Peters pecker picked another
Pickle bearing pussy pepper,
Peters pecker picked another
Pickle bearing pussy pepper, why.

Meeting john at dales jr.
Winked an eye and point a finger,
Meeting john at dales jr.
Winked an eye and point a finger, why.

A former cop, undercover,
Just got shot, now recovered,

Aa ee eh aa eh aa oh
Aa ee eh aa eh aa oh, why
As we light up the sky.
Aa ee eh aa eh aa oh
Aa ee eh aa eh aa oh, why
As we light up the sky.

Mine delusions acquainted,
Bubbles erotica,
Plutonium wedding rings,
Icicles stretching,
Bicycles, shoestrings,
One flag, flaggy but one,
Painting the paintings of the alive.

Aa ee eh aa eh aa oh
Aa ee eh aa eh aa oh, why
As we light up the sky.
Aa ee eh aa eh aa oh
Aa ee eh aa eh aa oh, why
On the fourth of july.
Doesn't really sound like your average self-obsessed drug-peddling nu-metal lyrics, does it?
