Ripoffs

[Rick and Roll]

I was listening to the local radio in my car today (I know, it wasn't a long enough drive to put in a CD). This tune by Audioslave comes on - "Show Me How to Live". Kick ass - however, I felt upset after I thought about it. Not only is it a blatant King's X ripoff, Chris Cornell even sings like Doug Pinninck! (Soundgarden has done this before - e.g. "Spoonman").

Does anyone else know a song that sounds just like another one or another band? For example, there was a metal band Kingdom Come that had a Zeppelin-sounding hit. Or even riffs - listen to Spock's Beard "The Light", and after the intro, compare the next passage to "Tarkus", and then the next one to "21st Century Schizoid Man".

Fire away!
