Digressively Horrified: Remember Bands on Buffy? 'Memba That?

Emily: I mean, I, I sympathize
with her upset because they

replaced the poster on her wall.

It used to be Ani de Franco
and then it became Creed.

And that fucked me up.

Ben: She saw the Creed poster and she
didn't know what the fuck was going on.

Emily: Yeah.

Well then she's like, this is a bad dream.

This is not my beautiful house.

Ben: She saw Creed?

And then she was like, Ah PTSD!

Emily: Ha ha Yeah I mean, P T S Creed

Ben: Look I'm not trying
to make light of PTSD.

I know the damage, the
band Creed has done.

And it's no joke.

Jeremy: We embrace all of
you "With Arms Wide Open."

Emily: With arms wide open!

Jeremy: We hope, we hope
that we can take you higher.

Um.

Ben: Welcome to the
Digressively Horrified.

Now we're talking about Titan A.

E.

And how that fucking movie
used Creed in every commercial.

Emily: I've not had not remembered
that, but now you've reminded me.

Ben: I have-

Emily: And now the real PTSD has returned.

Ben: -Titan AE.

Jeremy: I have to admit I owned
two different Creed CDs two

different albums at various points.

TJ: You're like, hi guys.

My name is Jeremy.

Jeremy: Hi guys.

Hi, my name is Jeremy.

And I also, I also used to own a Creed CD.

Uh.

Ben: You were right to fear our judgment.

Jeremy: In my defense.

I live in the American South.

Ben: I owned a lot of
Backstreet Boys albums.

Emily: I owned Life is Peachy.

So that's the Korn one.

Okay.

Jeremy: I mean, I still own Follow
the Leader around here somewhere.

Ben: I like Korn.

Jeremy: Yeah.

I still, well, you know about
on my, my workout playlist.

So.

Emily: You have Korn songs?

Jeremy: Yes.

Uh, "Freak on a Leash" is
on my, uh, workout playlist.

Emily: Okay.

Jeremy: I also have to Limp Bizkit
songs on my workout playlist cuz

they're all songs used to play in the
weight room when I was in high school.

Emily: Emily has just died.

Ben: I'm not gonna lie.

I'm a fan of "Word Up!"

Emily: I'm gonna-

Jeremy: "Word Up!"

is fun.

Emily: I'm I'm I died.

I'm sorry.

I can't, I can't podcast anymore.

Ben: Word up!

Emily: Goodbye.

See you guys later.

Ben: Okay.

Back to Scream 3.

Emily: Anyway,

Ben: We did it, guys!

She's gone!

Back to three.

Emily: I was wearing a bulletproof vest.

It was a very slimming vest.

Jeremy: A Creed proof vest.

Ben: Classic!

Jeremy: If only Sidney Prescott had-

Ben: The Classic Sidney
Prescott "Twist them up.

Turn around."

Emily: And then I killed you with C reed.

Ben: God.

Now that would've been poetic justice.

Okay.

Okay.

Can we talk about this fucking soundtrack?

I mean, also I feel like it's
important to note that while Ghostface

is attacking Cotton's girlfriend,
Ghostface has put on Creed music.

Emily: Was that?

I thought that was Fuel.

Or no.

It was Creed!

Ben: No Fuel plays later when we, uh, meet
Sidney and her like se- no Fuel plays when

we pan down on Jennifer's house, because-

Emily: Okay.

Ben: Guess what?

This soundtrack for
Scream 3 is fucking wild.

I mean, it's all licensed music.

We've got Slip Knot, Finger
Eleven, System of a Down, Godsmack,

Static-X, Dope, Fueld, Powerman
5000, and multiple Creed songs.

Emily: Yeah, that's a, uh, that
is basically like, do you want to

remember the 2000 in their music?

No.

Okay.

This is why.

Jeremy: You know what it is.

Cause I was trying to figure this out.

Cause I was like, we just barely
dodged Evanessence because two years

later Daredevil'll pull in Evanessence
and, and make Evanessence a thing.

Yeah.

Um, but also this is also Kevin
Williamson's fault, I think because,

uh, Dawson's Creek and Buffy and
all these other CW and WB shows had

just started like doing this thing
where they had, you know, featured

bands and music on every episode.

And I don't know how many people
remember watching these things

when they were actually on.

After the show, they'd be like
tonight's episode of Buffy

featured blah, blah, blah.

From this band who you can go buy right
now at your local Sam Goody's music store.

Emily: Yeah.

And they, I remember they used to
do that for film trailers too, where

they would feature like up, right up
there with the, uh, the cast it'd be

like featuring music by these bands.

Jeremy: Now we just do slow
remixes of old rock songs.

Ben: Well, they, we love
our slow remixes don't we?

Emily: Nick Cave.

Actually, this is a point of
contention for Brett and me because

I was like, that's not Nick Cave.

That's somebody pretending me Nick Cave.

And he's like, no, that's Nick Cave,
Nick Cave, specially rerecorded a version

of red right hand with like fucking
James Bond music in it for this movie.

Jeremy: Closing credits.

Right?

Emily: Yep.

Yeah.

And, and here and there
in the film, but, um.

I do remember the episode of Buffy
the Vampire Slayer with Cibo Matto.

And I was like, whoa!

Jeremy: Yeah.

Where people just started showing
like real bands started showing

up at The Bronze in Buffy.

Um, it was like, oh shit.

It's Poe for some reason.

TJ: I'm just over here.

Like you watched Buffy in real time.

So jealous.

Ben: Remember when Korn debuted
a new single on south park?

No.

That happened.

There was a whole South Park episode that
was just like, Hey everybody, Korn's here

and now they're gonna play their new song.

Emily: I remember the Marilyn Manson doing
like a song on Celebrity Death Match.

If you remember that fucking trash.

Ben: I do remember Celebrity Death Match.

Holy fuck.

Jeremy: It's on Paramount Plus now.

You can watch the whole thing.

Ben: I won't.
