emo band steals Downfall riff

yeah it sounds almost the same :rofl: haha
but yeah sometimes when you are in a band and you are all giving ideas for new song compositions, you came up and say hey listen to this!
start playing and then somebody tells you: hey that riff already exists!
and you are like WTF where?
and they show the song to you ahaha even if you dont know the song, you can have a riff from other :p
 
I don't think they intentionally plagiarised it. Plagiarising a big band like CoB intentionally is downright stupid.

Maybe, but since their music is out, they know the intro riff is the intro of Downfall, and they don't want to change it ....
You can make music and find à riff of a great band but when you realised it, you change this but they keep this fucking riff so for me it's still à steal of riff
 
Well, my friends used to go to Motown night at a bar downtown, but stopped because its pretty much overcrowded with emo children now all under 16. Probably think its ironic and funny, like argyle vests, non of them know shit about motown.

Also, I personnaly consider metalcore a branch of emo.
:lol: Funny story... sad actually.

I partially agree with Metalcore being in the branch of Emo. Some Metalcore bands are simply a mix a Hardcore and Metal (I'm pretty clever eh?) which sometimes doesn't sound really bad (i.e Raised Fist or God Forbid). On the other you have the completely Emo band trying to sound Metal which is, indeed, in the branch of Emo (i.e Bullet For My Vagina).

Long story short, it's usually better to avoid the therm Metalcore because of the multiple interpretations that people can make out of that. It is either Metal, Hardcore or Gay... I mean Emo.
 
Before I listen to the recording, I expected the riff to sound KIND OF like Downfall, but these emo pieces of shit have taken plagiarism to the next level. Way to be gay!
 
Here's my theory in simple steps...
  1. CoB beginning to become trendy with MTV airplay
  2. AYDY? sounding somewhat Metalcore
  3. Metalcore is somehow related to Emos
  4. Emo band checks their old stuff
  5. Emo band thinks the old stuff is über-underground
  6. Emo band steals riff
  7. UM members laugh
That's a very sound theory.
 
lol well if you people are pissed about this emo band doing it then you should also be pissed at Slipknot because they took one of the riffs from Sixpounder and put it in Duality..... yes it is sad but true.... oh by the way i fucking hate Slipknot and anything associated with emo
 
I messaged the band and they replied saying that they listened to Downfall and would revise the riff when they record this summer. they said the last thing they want to do is copy another band
