Throwdown! with Bobby Flay
Throwdown! with Bobby Flay is a Food Network television program in which celebrity chef Bobby Flay challenges cooks renowned for a specific dish or type of cooking to a cook-off of their signature dish.
At the beginning of each show, Flay receives – via bicycle messenger – a package detailing the chef he is to compete against as well as the dish. Examples of opponents include a skilled chili maker or a famous wedding cake designer. After practicing and preparing the item in question, Flay shows up for a surprise competition (or "Throwdown"). During the competition, both chefs prepare their particular version of the dish, and both are then evaluated by local judges to determine a winner.
Format
Each show includes a mini-biography about the chef who is to be challenged, shown before the challenge takes place. The content for the biography is actually collected as part of an elaborate ruse or setup, where the chef or cook is told that they are going to be featured on a fictitious Food Network show. As part of the show, the featured chef (and their associated restaurant, if any) hosts a small party, which is then unexpectedly "crashed" by Bobby Flay. Upon Flay's arrival, he reveals the true nature of the show, and the "Throwdown" is initiated.
Throwdown (band)
Throwdown is an American straight edge metalcore band from Orange County, California, formed in 1997. They have toured as part of Ozzfest, Sounds of the Underground, Hellfest, and Warped Tour, and with bands such as In Flames, Lamb of God, As I Lay Dying, Killswitch Engage, Korn and Cavalera Conspiracy. The songs "Forever" and "Burn" have been staples on MTV2's Headbanger's Ball and Revolver Magazine called them part of "The Future of Metal" after hearing the album Vendetta. Initially branded a hardcore band, their most recent albums Venom and Tears and Deathless have taken a sharp direction towards metal, with critics likening the band's sound to that of Pantera, Sepultura, and Crowbar.
History
Early years (1997–2002)
Throwdown was formed in 1997 by vocalist Keith Barney, who would also be an active member of both Adamantium and Eighteen Visions, guitarists Tommy Love and Javier Van Huss, bassist Dom Macaluso, and drummer Marc Jackson. The group took on the title Throwdown as a "wry irony on their collective stature," at the time no band member being more than 5 feet 8 inches (1.73 m). The band released their debut, self-titled 7-inch single that same year through Prime Directive Records. Van Huss left the band, and was replaced by Brandan Schieppati. After sign a recording contract with Indecision Records, the band released their first studio album Beyond Repair the following year. In 1999, Barney also relinquished his role in Death by Stereo to prioritise Throwdown. Schieppati left the band to concentrate full-time on his other band Bleeding Through, being replaced by Dave Peters. The following year, the new line-up released the Drive Me Dead EP.

Americana
by: ThrowdownAll hail the god in the TV
White noise medicating
Rape and murder, holy war, nothing phases me
And now I have the only scapegoat that I need
(A modern day alibi for a life of abuse and neglect)
HAIL
ALL HAIL
Pray to the god in the TV
Eyes wide, fixed and dilated, bleed
A myriad of rich white trash, nothing phases me
It promises just what I'm longing to be
HAIL, All hail your brand new religion
HAIL, An old American sin (all hail)
HAIL, This is the murderer of evolution
HAIL, This is no way for us to live
...Now hail the god within
HAIL
ALL HAIL
Relive a warped reality
Push the syringe in and let the hours wane
Ashen eyes, catatonic, praying on our knees
To hail the god for a legion of zombies
HAIL, All hail your brand new religion
HAIL, An old American sin (all hail)
HAIL, This is our cancer
feeding thought pollution
HAIL, This is no way for us to live
HAIL, All hail your brand new religion
HAIL, An old American sin (all hail)
HAIL, This is the murderer of evolution
HAIL, This is no way to fucking live
...Now hail the god within
HAIL
