so...this band was going to be the next Metallica

[Short Stack]

Godsmack

what ever happened to them?

I saw Metallica and Godsmack twice...once on the same card...I honestly prefer Godsmack....

but what happened to them?

[ricpride]

i dunno?

[Poochiesdead]

They're making a new album.

[avsfan21]

They are going to be a-holes when it comes to downloading music also.

[Holeman]

They sucked themselves to death.

[PhilM]

^ lol,


their music was all kinda, way too similar, first disc was good, but, just took to long to chase it with anything good.

[Leafsfan1967]

The next Metallica??? :confused: Those are pretty big shoes to fill! ;) heard the same thing about Oasis being the next Beatles! LOL!!!

[ozzpest]

I remember when I saw Godsmack and Deftones in Washington. I wasn't too impressed with Godsmack, but the whole time, I was like, "I'll stick around until they play that one song of their's that I like."

Of coruse since it sounds so similar I had mistaken 4 other songs for that song.

[chucknorris666]

Godsmack sucks they were at an Ozzfest one year, and if Pantera were not playing after them I would of walked out in disgust. They were playing in Mansfield, MA, and It seemed like after every song they would say "Yeah we started out in Boston!" trying to get the crowd with them. They should of stuck to being an AIC cover band.

[ChimeraG-Man]

IMO they only released one good album ( their debut ) and now they just suck.

[AS251BR]

They went AWAY!

[R. Giles]

Yeah the first album was good but there new song off the new album is horrible.

[someguy6000]

i liked their first disk but then nothing i like awake but all of their songs sound alike and i can only take so much you know that is why i had to stop i was ready to snap and i can't be responsible for that because they were making me angry and they wern't going to like me when i am angry.
congratulations you just read one of my famous statements that don't actually go anywhere:D if you made it this far

[BeefEaster]

i remeber their first two popular songs

stay away and get away from me or stay away from me and get away from me or go away and stay away or some crap.....i dunno
they suck

[TOOTH]

PFFT, They SUCK BIG C***, And yes they tried to rip off AIC's style, but failed b/c the lack of talent

[R. Giles]

i remeber their first two popular songs

stay away and get away from me or stay away from me and get away from me or go away and stay away or some crap.....i dunno
they suck

It's hard to figure out if they have had two hits, with the songs having the same sound.

[BeefEaster]

exactally...i thought they were the same song for a long time
then i realized they had slightly different lyrics....then i was even more confused

[KilldaR]

They love to use A words
Awaaaaaake
Aliveeeeee
soon I'll be Asleeeeeeep

[mkupper]

Blah. Please delete this thread.

[Dragon Empress]

I prefer Disturbed over Godsmack.

[someguy6000]

I prefer Disturbed over Godsmack.
depends on the CD Disturbed's new cd not so good

[TrebleX]

depends on the CD Disturbed's new cd not so good

The first Disturbed album is key :cool: !

Anyway, I always thought Avenged Sevenfold were shaping up to be the new Metallica.

Not to rag on them, but "Mama", "Bleeding Me", "Voodoo Too"? Sounds like Metallica's Load/Reload albums (Mama Said, Bleeding Me, Unforgiven 2).

[Slytherin Snape]

Not to rag on them, but "Mama", "Bleeding Me", "Voodoo Too"? Sounds like Metallica's Load/Reload albums (Mama Said, Bleeding Me, Unforgiven 2). Rag all you want. I, for one, couldn't care less what anyone else thinks about the things I like. :p :D :p

Good call on the similarities though. ;)

Well, they said they were supposed to be the next Metallica :P

I have their second album. I am in no hurry to catch up on their discography at the moment though.

wow, good observation....

and could they be any more un-creative with a title? what is it with all these stumbling nu metal bands? Disclaimer II, Chapter V, and now IV?

[MARTHA SPLATTERHEAD]

Whoever touted them as the next Metallica is a total idiot.

[Vicious.]

Just like so many other bands, they pulled a Staind.

[BeefEaster]

staind is the whineyest band ever

[Vicious.]

staind is the whineyest band ever

Yeah, but way back when they were pretty decent. Then they had a soft radio song. Then their next cd was all soft radio songs. Now they only appeal to depressed suburbian high school girls. Sound familiar?

[BeefEaster]

nirvana?

[monkeytrick]

Nah, Nirvana sounded pretty much the same the whole time.

Remember when Soundgarden's "Louder Than Love" came out and every magazine, etc. dubbed them the next Led Zeppelin?

[Vicious.]

nirvana?

:D

[BeefEaster]

i pesonally like soundgarden more than i like led zepplin

[AS251BR]

The word "away" is in 8 or 9 songs on their first album (no joke). Then they changed away to awake.


I remember hearing a sound bit of (is it) Sully talking about how they always looking for a new sound and trying to come up with original songs.

[monkeytrick]

i pesonally like soundgarden more than i like led zepplin

That's your prerogative, even though you're wrong ;)

[Mr. Wiggity Man]

I personally never liked Godsmack, always thought they sucked. I only heard like 3 or 4 of their hits and they all sounded the same.

[Slytherin Snape]

The word "away" is in 8 or 9 songs on their first album (no joke).
If you mean in the titles there is only 1. If you just mean the word "away" is anywhere, in any song, at any point in the lyrics then that's just silly. That's like saying a band has the word "rock" or "metal" or "stay" (etc., etc.) in 8 or 9 of their songs. It's a pretty common word. Besides, it's only 6. ;) :D

[MARTHA SPLATTERHEAD]

Early Soundgarden was ****. The last great album they did though was Badmotorfinger. Supernatural and everything after was lame. What the hell is Kim doing these days? That guy was totally under rated guitarist IMO.

[Mombo]

Soundgarden was a great band, but they didn't put out enough music before they broke up to be compared to Zeppelin.

[TexasHeat]

I dunno Godsmack puts ona great live show though, I've seen them 3 times and have never been dissapointed, and I like the new song off the album whioch comes out this Tuesday. But really who cares listen to what you like, if you don't like it then that's your business.

[Duce22]

They were great last night at the Tower>

[fluxcapacitorsandwich]

Godsmack sucks, but at least the drummer has more talent then lars. But that's not saying much :D

[dallasstars06]

no, dudes, you've got it all wrong. Trivium is the next Metallica. Go listen to their new album, The Crusade. That is what should've been after Justice


*NOTE*: I hate Trivium

[lord Narf]

I like only 1 song by Godsmack that is "I stand alone."

I prefer Disturbed over godsmack. because I own the "ten thousand fist" album

[SHACKS-STUFF]

Anyone with the name "godsmack" ain't gonna last anyway.
NO WAY THEY WERE EVEN CLOSE TO METALLICA

[AIR-MCNAIR]

got the name from a alice in chains song///now that was a great band!!

[fluxcapacitorsandwich]

What difference does the name of the band have to do with their not being a success?

There are tons of bands with unusual names that are very successful.

Oh, I got it, because you're a bible thumper.

I dont know if Godsmack would have the Lasting-power that metallica has. Even though i dont own any metallica cds, i still know the majority of their songs, as for Godsmack? i know maybe 1 or 2, and i used to own their cds and saw them live a few Times.

[Joe F.]

They jumped the shark when they sold one of their songs to the NAVY.

[TheCollectorStop]

Godsmack sucks they were at an Ozzfest one year, and if Pantera were not playing after them I would of walked out in disgust. They were playing in Mansfield, MA, and It seemed like after every song they would say "Yeah we started out in Boston!" trying to get the crowd with them. They should of stuck to being an AIC cover band.

Completely opposite here. Pantera was so awful they were forced to cut their set in half. Godsmack on the other end drove the crowd crazy. In the middle of the rain everyone had dug up patches of grass and were throwing them in the air. You could barely see the sky. The atmosphere was electric. Pantera came out and killed the mood.

[Fishy Pete]

I think the real question is... Who wants to be the next Metallica anyway? They suck enough for two or three bands.

[Avatar_of_Chaos]

but that song was used along with a Keith David narration... and that makes it ok. ;)

True, true.:D

[lunatic-grin]

rrrrriiiggghhtt... . . . .

[Prof. Hemispheres]

Just what we need, another Metallica.

[Prof. Hemispheres]

Soundgarden was a great band, but they didn't put out enough music before they broke up to be compared to Zeppelin.

Soundgarden was a good band but they were not prolific.
Plus, they didn't put nearly the same mark or influence on rock'n'roll that Zep stamped onto the scene back in their heyday.

[_mort_]

metallica sucks

































big time

[Wrestling Fan]

I really like trhe song I Stand ALone, thats about all I know about them

[raven112]

staind is the whineyest band ever
I thought it was U2.
