Unloco w… Read Full Bio ↴Unloco (also spelled ünloco) was an American nu metal band.
Unloco was formed in 2000 by frontman Joey Duenas. That same year, the band released a six-track EP titled Useless through Captiva Records.
The band was signed by Madonna's Maverick Records label and on March 20, 2001, Unloco released their debut album Healing produced by Johnny K. The album struggled to sell, and the band's future with their label was uncertain.
Soon after, guitarist Brian Arthur left to join Goldfinger, and was replaced by Marc Serrano.
Their second effort, Becoming i, was released on March 11, 2003, and was produced by Andrew Murdock – responsible for Powerman 5000, Godsmack, and Chimaira, among other artists. During said year, the band toured with such household names as Korn, opened for Music as a Weapon II, and appeared at Ozzfest 2003. Despite the push from their label, Becoming i failed to meet expectations, and the band split up that same year.
Since then, guitarist Marc Serrano joined the now disbanded A Dozen Furies, drummer Pete Navarrete formed a band called Exit the Sun, and vocalist Joey Duenas formed a band called Anew Revolution, featuring members from Slaves on Dope. The band released a five-track self-released EP in 2005.

Ãnloco Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I didn't seem to have a thing left to say
I bottled it far away
And maybe I
I tried too hard to find someone to blame
Or maybe it's me who changed
And now I'm left with nothing
Again
So what if I lost everything?
Would you want me if I was a failure?
So what if I lost everything?
Would you be there even when I am gone?
Baby, I
I didn't seem to give everything away
Not because I needed you to stay
and I
I couldn't face the fears I've lived for being hung
I've tried to answer every question
To why I'm left with nothing
Again
So what if I lost everything?
Would you want me if I was a failure?
So what if I lost everything?
Would you be there even when I am gone?
Maybe you could of taken all the pain inside of me
And now I feel like this was all for nothing
Cause I'm left with nothing
I'm left with nothing
Again
So what if I lost everything?
Would you want me if I was a failure?
So what if I lost everything?
Would you want me if I was a failure?
So what if I lost everything?
Would you be there even when I am gone?
So what if I lost everything?
Would you want me if I
If I, was a failure
"Failure" by Ãnloco is a song that deals with feelings of insecurity and self-doubt. The lyrics describe a situation where the singer feels like they have lost everything and are struggling to come to terms with it. They wonder if their loved ones would still want them if they were a failure and if they would be there for them even if they were gone. The singer also acknowledges their own mistakes in the situation and questions if they are the reason for their current situation.
The opening line, "Maybe I didn't seem to have a thing left to say" suggests that the singer has lost their voice and their ability to express themselves. They have bottled up their emotions and are struggling to find the words to express their feelings. They are questioning whether they have lost everything because of their own actions, or if they were simply unlucky. The lines "Or maybe it's me who changed / And now I'm left with nothing / Again" suggest that the singer may be their own worst enemy and that they may have contributed to their own downfall.
The chorus of "So what if I lost everything? / Would you want me if I was a failure?" is a plea to their loved ones. They worry that if they fail, they will be abandoned by the people they care about. They are asking if their loved ones will stand by them even if they hit rock bottom. The repeated phrase "I'm left with nothing / Again" emphasizes the sense of despair and hopelessness that the singer is feeling. They feel like they have hit rock bottom and don't know how to get back up.

Maybe I
Perhaps I
I didn't seem to have a thing left to say
I couldn't find the right words to express myself
I bottled it far away
I suppressed my feelings deep inside
And maybe I
Perhaps again,
I tried too hard to find someone to blame
I searched for something or someone to hold accountable
Or maybe it's me who changed
Maybe it was my own fault for undergoing a transformation
And now I'm left with nothing
I'm devoid of everything
Again
Another time and it's recurring
So what if I lost everything?
Does it matter if I lose everything?
Would you want me if I was a failure?
Would you still accept me if I fail?
Would you be there even when I am gone?
Will you still be around when I'm no longer here?
Baby, I
Honey, I
I didn't seem to give everything away
I didn't reveal my complete self
Not because I needed you to stay
Not because I needed your presence for me to remain
And I couldn't face the fears I've lived for being hung
I couldn't confront my anxieties that have restricted me
I've tried to answer every question
I attempted to respond to every inquiry
To why I'm left with nothing
To the reason why I have nothing left
Maybe you could of taken all the pain inside of me
You could have possibly absorbed my inner turmoil
And now I feel like this was all for nothing
Currently, it appears everything was in vain
Cause I'm left with nothing
Because I possess nothing
I'm left with nothing
Once again, I'm devoid of everything
So what if I lost everything?
Does it matter if I lose everything?
Would you want me if I was a failure?
Would you still accept me if I fail?
So what if I lost everything?
Does it matter if I lose everything?
Would you be there even when I am gone?
Will you still be around when I'm no longer here?
So what if I lost everything?
Does it matter if I lose everything?
Would you want me if I
Would you still accept me if I
If I, was a failure
If I am unsuccessful

Yeah, your opening lines really told a good story in terms of slogans
I was a technical consultant to Venture Capital and Hedge Funds
Also did my own start up
Net/Net: The VCs are not very technical
They really were not interested in a translations from technical to business opportunities
That's where the slogans come in
One VC was repeating back a slogan a start-up was telling him
I used to work there, and knew the VP spewing the sloganeering nonsense
I debunked the slogan and save the VC a few million

Adam Neumann is honestly one of my favorite CEOs of all time. Just a golden example of someone who has absolutely no place running a business continuously failing upwards. It’s inspiring in all of the wrong ways.

The wages of sin is death and the wages of zero interest rates is the capitalization of absolutely moronic startups.

Agree, this is a product of cheap money. Start up, sell out, and dump on the idiots. Standard practice. Look at all the idiots still investing in SPACs.
