Title: sound-a-likes!

Dunno if anyone else has noticed this lately, but there seem to be a lot of soundalikes out there at the moment! Particularly in the UK.

Listen to THE GLITTERATI - Heartbreaker - sounds like a riff off of slash's snakepit's "Ain't Life Grand" (Mean Bone I think) mixed with the guitar lick from Superhuman, and some lyric like another VR song (maybe Headspace? Or illegal i?)

Madness.

Also, ROOSTER have a song "Deep and Meaningless" that could almost BE "Back To The Moment", musically that is - listen in particular to the outro - you can hear the outro to back to the moment over the top!! - same chords and everything, and the solo is so slash from a VR song ala You Got No Right or Lovin The Alien.

More Madness!

It's better then some dubass sampling someone elses music and taking the credit. r some moron who has to co-work with a songwriter.

Well, Mike Clink produced their latest record and the guitar player is a major Slash fan so it kind of adds up, you know?

They're a very cool band, no Coldplay's need apply....

I am not doubting their talent, I think they're good, but it is obvious that they want to be GNR (or a better version of VR)

That's a pretty broad generalization...
