I'd say Failure is anything but generic, you'd be surprised how many bands they've influenced; Weezer, as mentioned before. It's a bit too easy to call older bands like Failure generic, because I think a lot of us relate how they sound to how current bands do, who have a similar sound to their music. I challenge you to go listen to all three of the albums Failure currently have, starting with their first album Comfort, then Magnified, and finally Fantastic Planet, which is a stellar album. Failure and generic don't go together.

As for your song you posted. To me, they sounded similar to Failure; similar tones. I thought it wasn't too shabby of a song, could have been better. 5.8/10
