He'll deserve it until he actually makes real rock music without ripping off Green Day riffs. His RATM covers and the song he did with Mike and Chino are better than any of his own solo music.

It's surprisingly powerful for a Flashgame. Evil-Dog recorded all the guitars and bass himself. I still play it all the time and make songs.
Love the fact that Bravis Tarker and Machine Gun Smelly became members of the band half way through 🤣
This is genuinely and unironically a great pop-punk song wtf. Nik out here smashing expectations as always.
It still blows my mind that a flash game makes better music than most artists. Also, please turn these into a full album with a vocalist.

I'm glad he does shit that isn't just reacting to songs. I'd actually be way happier if he just did creative works. I know there's people that are the opposite, but I feel like he wastes his talent on just reacting to things.
