Quantcast



In what can only be described as a beautiful, yet fitting tribute to Xbox Live, The Xbox Boys lay it all on the line for the namesake that inspires them the most (any guesses?).

Brought together by fate, the new fab four are embarking on a mystical journey to spread the Xbox love to any fan within earshot. Putting aside notions of fame or personal glory, they have but one clear goal in mind -- to uphold the three laws passed down to them by Grandfather

1. Uphold gaming integrity for all gamers of the world
2. Bring the power of the Xbox to all countries by performing and showcasing the games and consoles
3. Make sure that all age groups and all peoples of Earth have access to the X-Box console and to its games.

We shall have to wait and see if the true keeper of the orb, Bill Gates, deems them worthy of such a mission. In the meantime, you can find out more about the "chosen ones" at their web site, as well as another musical piece dedicated to Gears of War titled "Why won't you die on insane?"

Whether you agree with the message or not, any band that rocks out with a Guitar Hero controller is pure win in my book.

I just gave my 360 the cruelest of stares, and told it that i refuse to turn it on for awhiles.

what a bunch of tools, the face paint was overkill

That was gayer than eight guys blowing nine guys.

So obviously a marketing ploy, no fanboys would sing a song (yeah, with GHII controllers, too) about such a broad topic. For example, a nerd wouldn't rant about food, they would rant about how cruel it is that Taco Bell doesn't sell Choco Taco's anymore.

What?! I had the tour schedule ready for you guys. They are the next KISS. Do you have any idea how long it must take them to prep for concerts?

You guys are NUTS. This song kicks ass. I cant get it out of my fucking head.

I agree that the outfits kinda go to far, but if you had to pay for some with your own dime what would they look like?

cut em a break. Song kicks ass.

First saw their video on youtube and felt like some professionals were playing those songs. Really different songs which interest todays generation and most important of all "the XBOX" Definately they will gain popularity in the near future. I can see that from the fantastic chord work that the guitarist has done. Best of luck XBOX BOYS :)

Great songs have been produced by this band and more are expected to come. Since Bill Gates is the richest man on Earth, I do not know if he even notices this yet. Just imagine if they do and what will happen.

When I listened to XBOX Boys at first.. at hollybolly.info I was really amazed about them. Theit music is so rocking and very professional. I know they will hit all over the world. Afterwards, I listen to their other musics and none of them was bad. It is a great band though and very nice singing. I love Xbox Boys and keep up the music on.

haha, I quite like the xbox Boys. Seems like a good bit of fun. If they make it big, I can imagine it'd be a decent marketing strategy for microsoft/xbox. Music isn't half bad too :D

Even if their image is not very interesting I must admit that the video is interesting and the music sound good.
I just hate that light-green.

Heya, wow. This music and these videos are truly amazing. This brings the concept of "fans" to a new level.

I love their stuff. It would be great to see their stuff on TV, for an MS advertisement.

That video was pretty good. I liked the creativity and music. It must've took many hours of filming, editing, and previewing. That just shows that they're xbox fans. ;D

I enjoyed this video alot. I thought there performance was awesome! I have been watching the xbox boys for a while, they still continue to amaze me. I really think Bill Gates should endorse them.

The Ex Box Boys (yeah, hadda change the name) will be performing live and might be webstreaming. Check out their MySpace website. They are playing in Everett Washington on January 9, 2009 at Hayley's.
It's only $10.00 at the door, and they are giving away signed promo CD's and DVD's.
I know I'm going to be there.
