    Will anyone miss this?

    Last time I watched it regularly it was just a load of Emo bollox, it did introduce me to a few bands though.

    Miss it, no. Haven't watched music channels in years.

    Have fond memories of it? Definitely. Came across some bands I really enjoy on it, I'm sure many were the same

    Sunny Day Real Estate emo, or commercialised Fall Out Boy emo?

    Haven't watched Scuzz in over 10 years. But I can remember it being marginally better than Kerrang tv, which is not much of an achievement.

    Scuzz is still going? Must be 15 years since i watched a music channel

    Looking it up, it's been on air since 17 April 2003! Didn't think it was that long ago! :eek:

    I read somewhere that MTV Rocks has been rebranded as VH1 Christmas, so I guess that just leaves Kerrang! as the only rock station on TV at this time?

    I suspect the likes of Youtube has made these channels irrelevant nowadays.

    I used to feel very jealous of friends who had access to Kerrang and MTV2 back in the glory days of nu metal.

    Anytime I ever saw Scuzz, which was later in life, they looked to be playing nothing but emo-ish crap.

    It has been a few years since I watched it to be fair but any time I did turn it on, all it seemed to play was pop-punk crap.

    I was looking through the music channels last week and stopped at MTV Rocks. If that's what is classed as rock these days then it's a sad state of affairs, it was a mix of rap / dance with not a guitar in sight. Probably get more rock on the Christmas channels.

    The last time I turned on Scuzz or Kerrang I was met with that same feeling of horrified disappointment I got the time Raw magazine completely changed in the space of a week.

    There were no glory days of nu-metal.

    There were no glory days of nu-metal.

    Nu-metal was just emo for people who wore backwards baseball caps.

    There was irony in the remark.
