one, how do you know skillet ripped three days grace not the other way around? the videos where post the EXACT same day.knifegill;4663316; said:
two, those are FAR from blatent ripoffs. just because the subject matter is similar doesnt make them rip offs. if similar subject matter makes a rip off, then all country music is a ripoff, all rap is a rip off all music is a rip of other music
there are plenty of ripoffs, but that doesnt count
ps, i saw skillet in person. great band! music is a bit preachy sometimes but good band none the less

!!!! Second I believe music is like fine candy--to enjoy it you must first remove the rapper!!!!! Third; If you listen carefully, How many songs are there that are the same with different lyrics? I've played music all of my life(not just played the radio
). I have an ear for this kind of thing as evidently Knifegill does also.---Chris
again, similar subject(one refers to god other not but u know what i mean) but they dont really sound alike. If you want to strech it they could sound similar but sound no where near what u need to call it a rip off.pi-eyed;4667135; said:First off Skillet rocks

and which song came first? vids posted same day, i hear them on the radio same time etc.
and there is some good rap. not too much, but there are good artists out there.
Eh, you have to admit that they sound really similar as well...Lepisosteus platyrhincus;4666221; said:
The opening riff for both is practically the same. Not saying I blame either band for the similarities, I like both bands and I personally don't mind the similarities.
Although, just to point this out, Three Days Grace's song came out in '07 and Skillet's is from '09.
they do sound similar, but its hard to say if they copied them...alot of songs use a 4 bar riff which gets repeated threw the song which starts with a note at a pitch, followed by a drop in pitched, followed by a raise in pitch twice that of the drop. then followed by a drop in pitch three times the original drop.
if we generalize the notes to just, a b c d e f g
then it could be represented as, b - c - a - d

ah ok. but yeah similar but no where near close enough to be a rip off of one another.Delhezi222;4667597; said:
