    No way you should be putting 7 Mary 3 in the same category as Nickelback. They're a great live band with solid studio albums. To each their own I guess.

    2nd that for Live.

    Sixteen Stone was the first CD I ever owned. I had plenty of cassettes, but that CD was special to me so they will always have a small piece of my heart. They do suck, though (especially anything after that album).

    So you reckon the music that Bush released in 1994 was the same music he was playing when he picked up the guitar as a kid? Jesus, get over it, he capitalised on the popularity of grunge MASSIVELY. Hell, even if Bush didn't rip off Nirvana when they formed in 1992, which I'm sure they did, they definitely did by the time they released anything. Bands adapt you know. Especially with trends. Especially cookie-cutter rock bands like Bush.

    Nobody capitalized on Grunge. Except the record labels, who signed bands who sounded similar to other bands. Since Bush, Gavin has played in Institute, which sounded like a heavier Bush, and did a solo album, which still sounds like Bush.

    If he was just trying to rip people off surely he would have changed his style by now.

    Soundalikes are a dime a dozen, because there are only so many influences to go around. But blatant ripoffs take a good 10 years.

    Well ... as well as listening to grunge etc I listened to Bush when they came out and had a few of their albums ... but I never liked Nirvana ... so I guess I never noticed the similarities :p
    So are we strangers now? Like rock and roll and the radio?
