We here at BnR have had our share of hate for what we deem 'frat rock.' It can best be described by the angry, yet radio friendly, rock that you hear today. Think of the bands 3 Days Grace, Breaking Benjamin, and our personal favorite Nickelback.

Back in college you could travel down frat house row and hear various songs from these bands blasting through the street. So I went to the source to ask why this was. What follows are my questions and the answers of Chad Cornwall III former member of Kappa Alpha Fraternity.

Me: Hello Chad and I want to thank you for sitting down to talk to Blogsnroses.com. We are pleased to offer our readers the insight of a real, true life, fraternity member.

CC: Thank you Mr. Wettner. It will be a fun interview I am sure.

Me: Well let's not waste anytime, what school did you attend and the years?

CC: I attended Duke University from 2000-2004. I was a sociology major and now I work as a teacher at a private school here in Delaware.

Me: Oh that is sweet, you molding the minds of today's youth. An admirable profession. What fraternity did you become a member of and why?

CC: My first day on campus I was just a small town boy joining a larger university setting. I was lost and just wanted to fit in. I felt the best way to do that was to join a fraternity and hang out and party. I went to the general fraternity meeting and I saw women walk by the Kappa Alpha table. They were nearly creaming their pants, bro. I could smell their sex. They wanted the guys behind the table to mount them in the gym and I must admit, I found them attractive too. So I decided to join.

Me: I guess Axe Body Spray really does work. Well this is a music site, so tell me the music you listened to in your fraternity tenure.

CC: I listened to all kinds of music. The ladies enjoyed the rap. So we had your 50-cent, Jay-Z, and Tupac for the old school jams. The ladies went crazy for the hip-hop music. We couldn't keep them out of the house. It was like bringing sheep to the slaughter. The music brought them in the beer kept them there.

Me: Is rap the only music you played at your parties?

CC: Oh hell no. We had what we called "mood music." (he chuckles apparently remembering something...or it could have been gas. You know how babies smile, but it is really just gas?)

Me: What is "mood music"?

CC: Well you really are not a member of a frat so I should not tell you. But mood music is the music that signified someone is getting it on, putting on the Ritz as we used to call it.

Me: Putting on the Ritz?

CC: Yes, it was very high class, you know banging a drunk chick admist the filth and the cheering. It was so classy it was like you were staying at the Ritz Charlton.

Me: Clever.

CC: So we had different music for that. Rap just wouldn't express the anger and angst required to rail a chick on the floor of the frat house. We had an entire system man. It was awesome.

Me: I think you are going to need to explain the system so people like myself who were never in a fraternity can understand you.

CC: The rap music would pull the ladies into La Casa de Sex, but it was the rock music that would cause them to lose their clothing. We would put on Smile Empty Soul's "Do It for the Drugs" and the birds lost their tops and panties. We would put on some softer rock like Nickelback's "How You Remind Me" to get the chicks to make out. That would get them really hot and ready for our powerful pistoning penises.

Me: Fantastic alliteration and mental image. I can see why you teach children. (high five ensues)

CC: Dude, I swear the parties were awesome. After Nickelback the sluts would practically be begging for your to shove it in them. So it was then basically who could get to the ladies first. Unless you were turning 18 or 21. Then you automatically were given the ladies.

Me: An American Rite of Passage.

CC: Yea! Exactly dude, it was a totally American thing to do. So then the music would move to some softer jazz like Marvin Gaye's "Sexual Healing" or "Let's Get it On." That would force making out and the ladies would remove the brother's clothing. Then once she started sucking him...

Me: Whoa man this is a family website we need to be a bit more euphemistic here.

CC: Ok, when the girl would perform her high wire act on the male's rod that is when we would change the tunes to "I Hate Everything (about you)" by 3 Days Grace. That is when the hardcore porno action would occur. Afterward we would put on some 90's pop songs to help the ladies mellow out. Like some Third Eye Blind or Semisonic.

Me: It must have been real tough as rock music like 3 Days Grace took a hiatus from like 2003-2005.

CC: Aw dude it was, it was. Chicks were catching on quick and they wouldn't screw to the same song weekend after weekend. That is when things got real bad. I remember it was Curtis who brought roofies to the frat party that night. We made sure all ladies got the drinks tainted with the stuff and they would just pass out. Then you were free to get it on with them. They would wake up and moan and groan because they loved it.

Me: You raped women in college?! They were groaning because you had sex with them without their consent.

CC: No bro, you don't understand. They loved it. Besides times were desperate we had to get laid, we were horny. Anyway, I think I have said too much this interview is over.

Chad has not talked to me in about two months. It isn't because we are not friends still, he is just backpacking through Europe with his old fraternity brother Toby. They always loved working out, oiling each other up, and going to the beach to "pick up women." Though while they had perfectly manicured hair, nails, and bodies, they never could find the right woman to take back and utilize the "mood music" on. Sometimes things are better left in college. The love of frat rock and women are certainly two of those things.
