Why they might be annoying:

    They were discovered by Fred Durst.
    Before the band was supposed to open for Limp Bizkit in October 1997, Fred tried to prevent the band from playing because he thought that they worshipped Satan.
    'It's Been Awhile' was a very overplayed song.
    In addition to Limp Bizkit, they have also toured with Korn, Kid Rock and Godsmack and have headlined the Family Values Tour.
    Aaron has a pierced left eyebrow and happens to be an emotional singer.
    Jon has a pierced right eyebrow.
    Several band members have tattoos.

Why they might not be annoying:

    When they did perform, Fred Durst was so impressed that he began working with them, which led to their major label deal.
    Their album 'Break the Cycle' debuted at number one and stayed there for its first three weeks.
    The emotions displayed by Aaron was from a troubled youth, where he had problems with his divorced parents and was beaten up a lot.
    Aaron's emotional style of performing has attracted people who can connect with his feelings.
    That performance ended up as a bonus track on the Family Values Tour album, as it eventually gained massive radio airplay and spawned a studio version on 'Break the Cycle.'
