Rise Against > Godsmack

I have no clue why this band even got brought into it though.

By the by??

Ah yes, melodic..hardcore..punk..rock.. Lets see how genre-specific we can make ourselves to try to seem unique!!!

Godsmack>Rise Against

Lets just agree to disagree.

Or the fact that there atleast a hundred melodic hardcore bands. I'd say the abundance of sound is genre deserving.

So the fact that they sound different from other hardcore and other melodic bands doesn't warrant the fact that they have their own, clearly defined niche?

No, it can mean two things. They are either 1) The greatest, most innovative, ground-breaking band since The Ramones, or 2) They are sh*tty post-punk nonsense who are more worried about being defined in the wrong genre than making an actual contribution to this world.

I`m still confused as to how someone can say that record sales = talent can have Fozzy as a favourite band.

See oojay, this is acceptable. I disagree with TheUsedToolGuy, but he presented his opinion as that, AN OPINION.

and yes, the Ramones were groundbreaking. For what they did at the time, it was amazing.
