[carcharias]

The offspring do a song that sounds like the beatles obladi oblada

Fall Out Boy, All American Rejects, Bowling for Soup, Short Stack, New Found Glory, Yellowcard, Busted, Cobra Starship, Fenix TX, McFly... all sound exactly the same.

All western music sounds the same except for Soviet Russia's favourite western musical group- the four comrades from liverpool uk- with their Back in the USSR song being a particular favourite of all Soviets

 

[Parra]

Tonight long stick goes boom is a classic rock lyric though.

Straight out of the Brian Johnson double entendre playbook

 

[simmo1]

Evile = Slayer

 

[Red Bear]

Silversun Pickups, especially first album, remind me a fair bit of Smashing Pumpkins

Funnily enough, I think it sounds more like Bon Scott, just with a bit more of a rasp to his voice.

[Non Terminator]

Still, one hell of a lot better than them.

 

[Cletus]

[Twizzle]

Opeth/Pink Floyd/Moody Blues

Negative.

Oasis reminds me of The Beatles, namely John Lennon fronting The Beatles. Cooper Temple Clause and to a smaller degree Kasabian remind me of Oasis.

Airbourne have made a career of being a want to be ACDC.

The Hives and The Vines sound very similar.

Jet basically sound whatever band/performer they're stealing their music from. (Iggy Pop and Oasis springs to mind).

Wolfmother = Led Zeppelin.

She Wants Revenge and Interpol.

The Editers, White Lies and Joy Division.

The Doors' Break On Through sounds like a Ray Charles song.

 

[Twizzle]

Wolfmother do sound a bit like Zepplin but if your ever heard of a band called Uriah Heap from Zepplin's era, they are alot like them as well

 

[Moffo]

nickelback - a cat pissing

This is the band but the song I heard was called 'long stick goes boom' which just sounded a lot like AC/DC. I was listening to internet radio, had never heard them before and it came on, I have no idea of what the rest of their stuff sounds like.

Until this thread I have never heard of Airborne. From the posts im assuming they are a pretty good copy of AC/DC?
