Nickelback copies Theory of a Dead man
It's a never ending cycle of shit |
Kronzo
10.27.15 | I, Omega = Protest the Hero
new Scarlett O'Hara = Atilla |
brainmelter
10.27.15 | that ghostbath shite |
Artuma
10.27.15 | appleseed cast - the end of ring wars rips off mineral so hard |
wtferrothorn
10.27.15 | owl city copied the postal service
obvious one |
Angelboros
10.27.15 | This one is pretty darn blatant, but The GazettE is basically Dir En Grey-lite, and you could make the same argument about a bunch of neo-visual kei bands/artists ripping off older groups like D'erlanger. |
Archelirion
10.27.15 | Both Pretty Mouth and Quartier Rouge are heavily influenced by Hell Songs-era Daughters. And they both absolutely fucking slay. |
Mythodea
10.27.15 | Soen's new album is way better and more diverse. |
Ashen
10.27.15 | "I know it's named after a plane or a gun or something but still."
the baddest plane of all time :] |
Insurrection
10.27.15 | PT - the sky moves sideways, pink floyd |
Nazzadan
10.27.15 | Diadem of 12 Stars sounds a bit too much like Dead as Dreams, but with the same producer and the former being hugely influenced by the latter I guess you can't hold it too much against them.
Also Infamy and the Breed by Zonaria sounds like any Hypocrisy album you want, take your pick. |
DoofusWainwright
10.27.15 | Put up Paloalto 'Heroes and Villains', most derivative album ever, rips off Radiohead 'The Bends'.
That band Taproot really ripped off Tool in their debut |
bagof4grapes
10.27.15 | Bowling for soup is a ripoff of SR 71 and SR 71 is not good in the slightest, which shows how bad BFS is. |
Dolving999
10.27.15 | Nice list.
The obvious one that comes to mind is Norma Jean. I mean, I fucking love them, especially the first and last album, but "O' God The Aftermath" has Botch written all over it.
I actually think one of the members of Botch was at a Norma Jean concert and said something like "I love this Botch song". |

10.27.15 | Ghost bath is painful and shameless |
Rawmeeth38
10.27.15 | Slint - Spiderland and Rodan - Rusty |
NakedSnake
10.28.15 | holy fuck, you weren't kidding with 1. |
heck
10.28.15 | Ozma's Rock and Roll Part Three sounds pretty much exactly like early Weezer, although it's still really fucking good in its own right and they bring a little bit of their own character to it.
probably the most egregious rip-off I've heard in a while is a Danish band called Inacave, whose album sounds completely identical to Palaces/Ashes-era Lamb of God. |

10.30.15 | 1 rules tbh |
