Kai:
The one that wanted to be a terrible Metallica ripoff, yes.
Luke:
One that I forgot:
Tupac!

I think almost everyone liked that, which would explain the Grammy they won for it.
I liked their acoustic thingy a lot too. It was damned relaxing.
Micolithe:
Yeah. For a band that now does music for "Join the Navy" commericals and took their name from an Alice in Chains song, their stuff is pretty good.
TrueNeutral:
They didn't, actually. At least, not according to WikiPedia.
"The name "Godsmack" did not come from an Alice in Chains song, though popular rumor deems it so. It came from the lead singer insulting one of his band mates for having a cold sore on his lip. The next time he came in for practice, he had one too. Sully Erna, the lead singer and practicing Wiccan believes in Karma, and his making fun of his band mate was the way in which he was repaid... His band mate told him that that was a "godsmack.""
I'm inclined to believe their version on the grounds of me liking to see the more fun side of life.

I can't stand those people. I get a lot from just about every group. Indie kids scold me for listening to nu-metal, emo kids hate me 'cause I like assorted happy sounding artists, nu-metal people can't stand me because I despise Linkin' Park, Limp Bizkit, and other frontrunners of the scene, and those death metal people want to kill me because my personal opinion is that their vocalists grate on the nerves, and preps don't understand how I can like something as old as Led Zeppelin. I guess that's what I get for just listening to whatever I find at some random spot and decide it's okay. I'm not even going to get into how much crap I get from rap-lovers.
