Is Godsmack heavy metal? Im think for the most part their hard rock, but some songs like "Whatever" can be classified as heavy metal.

    Not metal at all.
    Pretty damn gay...........but by far not metal.
    A concoction of rip offs; alice in chains, metallica, etc.
    Commercial rip offs at that!

      Just out of curiousity, have you heard any new (past 3 years, or so) metal bands that aren't "rip offs" of another band that has gone before them?



      (a friend once told me that "originality" could be defined as taking all the things that you'd experienced, and finding different ways to combine them...)

        Well, when the same shit that has been playing for two decades gets ripped off and thrown back into your face, sounding the exact same way,
        doesn't strike me as original. Not by far. I would think originality would take some talent, and refinement. Qualities that bands like Demiricous,
        Killwhitneydead, Lamb of God, 3 inches of blood, Abigail Wiliams, and especially godsmack all lack!

        So, I ask you, is it possible godsmack was only exposed to exposed to Metallica and Alice in Chains and that's them combining "all of the things they experienced? That somebody only own 2 cds growing up? Or is it possible that they are just another corporate grown and every-aspect -of-their-sound controlled "band"?

        Originality is still out there. Just not on your local hard rock station.
