A band performs the Star-Spangled Banner before an NFL game in Melbourne, Australia, and some fans react negatively to the rendition. Prior to the 49ers–Rams clash getting underway, Infinity Song takes the stage to sing the U.S. national anthem.
According to the coverage, the performance draws widespread online criticism, with commenters calling it the “worst ever” and describing it as sounding like “soft rock.” The outlets characterize the reaction as a general backlash from viewers, though they do not cite any official response from the NFL or from the performers themselves.
Overall, both sources focus on the same pregame moment and the same fan reaction, offering similar descriptions of the band’s style and the complaints it triggers. They do not provide additional details on the song arrangement, audience response inside the stadium, or any follow-up actions by the league or organizers.
