    I'm from Boston and used to see the alice and chains cover band "Godsmack", then Sully (who's originally a drummer) started writing originals instead of AIC covers. Saw them place in salem,ma. all the time. But to compare them to Pearl Jam?????????????????????????? :lol::lol::lol: GS couldn't even be roadies to
    PJ!!!!!

    Godsmack is just a glorified Alice in Chains tribute band. There is no comparison.

    Is this really serious? lol These kind of threads blow my mind. Sully fucking SUCKS! There albums all sound the same. I saw them open for Metallica in 05 and he could barely sing for twenty minutes! I think the real question is why is this on a pearl jam board, and how the hell can hardcore pearl Jam fans actually say they like godsmack more then PJ on this same PJ board?

    I can't way yay yate for shitty threads like this to stop! :o)

    I learn so much from these threads. First off I dont no how all of you can love grunge music so much and hate nu metal so much. Get over it grunge was in the 90s. Who says you cant listen to newer music? Alot of the nu metal bands are influnced by nirvana and pearl jam.
    Get over here!

    Comparing PJ to Godsmack is a weird comparison for sure. But I love Godsmack, very powerful music and they put on an incredible live show. Sully is incredibly talented, he is the lead singer, plays guitar and also plays the drums. Shannon Larkin who is a great drummer and he and Sully do a drum battle that is one of the coolest things I have ever seen at a show.

    First of all, it is spelled "k-n-o-w"
    Secondly - "a lot" is two words.

    I was down with grunge at the time, but that was so long ago. I didn't dig PJ because of the grunge tag or the other bands involved in grunge. I dug PJ becasue they were fucking awesome and still are... period. It's music to me not a genre..

    Personally I am not a Nu-metal fan. If I want to hear real metal I throw on Meshuggah! Jens Kidman would knock Sully's dick in the dirt any day of the week!!

    godsmack?!?!,,.... blech. try 'another animal'. its godsmack without sully. literally. much better!
  • Grandmas JamGrandmas Jam Posts: 1,860
    Is this a serious thread and/or question? Godsmack is barely a band. They ripped off everything and everyone ... especially Mad Seasons and AIC. A better question to pose would have been who is better AIC or PJ? Godsmack is to AIC what Creed is to PJ.

    Terrible, revoke his membership for this question.

    Is this for real? One of the best and most influential bands of the last 20 years vs. one of the most boring derivative and godawful (besides Creed mind you) bands of the last 20 years? You guess which one is which.
  • GiventoFallGiventoFall Posts: 217
    first off I im not joking. Maybe playing the devils advocat a little bet but I like pearl jam more. Second, I dont think its cool for people to call Godsmack Godcrap. Its not fair to the band or (or to God for that matter) Ive never realy listened to alice in chains but i doubt Godsmack RIPPED off them. Thats like saing pearl jam ripped of the doors or something.
