As MTV's 'Jersey Shore' show continues to ruffle feathers and gather ratings, it seems just about everyone -- even those you'd least expect -- are either faithful watchers or total haters. Noisecreep reflects on the same sentiment, and taps New Jersey metallers Mutiny Within for some more insight on this allegedly home-grown phenomenon.

Writes Noisecreep's Matt DeBenedictis:

We figured we should ask a metal man of New Jersey, like bassist Andrew 'A.J.' Jacobs of Mutiny Within, for his take on the show. "I think it's hilarious. I watch it every week," Jacobs tells Noisecreep with no pause when asked. "I love it."

Jacobs himself is quite confounded by people's claims that the show makes his home state look bad and he feels those that think so aren't paying attention to one of the simplest facts about the show. "People need to understand these people are not from Jersey. They're from New York. One of them, I think, is from Connecticut." Only one cast member is actually a resident of the state; that would be Sammi 'Sweetheart' Giancola. "They're just hanging out at the Jersey Shore, everyone needs to understand that."
