I saw that a few days ago and thought that the revenge remix could have been better done (i.e. worse; more humiliating - autotune etc).

The vocalist is shitty (even by screamo/monster voice genre standards). And I hate to break it to the engineer but a) don't release mixes (at least not without watermarks) until you're fully paid  or start work without some money down  or pay by the day etc (it's, like, studio rule #1, dumbass) and b) these pubescent(-looking) punks aren't going anywhere with their shitty band so the humiliation is limited.  The skaters in their vid (couldn't quite tell/care if it was bandmembers or not) are total poseurs too.

They wanted Suicidal, but it sounded more like Cher-icidal Tendencies...

Quite honestly, I can't tell any difference between the remix that's online and much of the music that's out today. 

I would have assumed it sounds exactly the way the band wanted it to.

That's one reason I'm an old fart who listens to classic rock - much of today's music sounds just like this.  The only thing worse is rap.
