Metallica is just a Motorhead ripoff and Motorhead is just a Black Sabbath rip off and so on and so forth.

Darkest Hour rocks out hardcore and at the end of the day that's all that matters.

That is true, but there's influence and then there's down right copying a riff from another band. And Darkest Hour copies alot of In Flames riffs. In fact every song of theirs I've heard has had riffs copied from either In Flames or Dimension Zero. That's why I mentioned it. What I said was rude though I'm sorry, I just didn't find that I was missing out or that they were that great. Hell one of my favorite bands copies riffs from Megadeth sometimes.

I noticed crap like this because I'm a huge nerd. Metal does not all sound the same. There are bands that stand out and those are the ones I like. There is no other metal band on the planet that sounds anything like Dark Tranquillity. Then you have bands like Bodom and Arch Enemy who are just the best at what they do and that's what makes them good.

Honestly I hate to call myself a metal fan because I don't like most metal bands but as far as music fan naming goes I have nothing else to call myself because most of the bands I like are metal.

Lol I'm not going to eat anyones family, and I don't like to argue about the subject but I love discussing it. It's hard to find a person to discuss metal with who has an idea of what's up because most people who like metal just like everything and that just doesn't suit me.
