Well i was just listening to In absentia by PT, and the bit that starts at 5:12 in Gravity Eyelids sounds like its ripped off from the end of The Leper Affinity. Has anybody else noticed this?
Actually it's a different strumming pattern, and not only that they're all slightly different chords. The chords on gravity are power chords(because the part is heavier) which share notes from the Leper chord inversions of minor and diminished. Also on the progression for gravity it switches from ending on an E based power chord To an F based power chord every other time. So technically nothing was stolen at all, and musicians Borrow(a lot of the time unconsciously) from their influences all the time since that's what music is. Rip off is a strong word in the music world so I would watch how you put things. Plus you do realize that steve produced bwp, and in absentia was the next PT release so in all reality you don't know who's idea for the overall progression it is or which was even written first. Could of been created in the studio, could have been steve's, could have been mike's or pete's, they could have came up with it together. All I know is both bands would be happy to admit the huge influences they've had on one another.Well I was just listening to In absentia by PT, and the bit that starts at 5:12 in Gravity Eyelids sounds like its ripped off from the end of The Leper Affinity.

wow thats not funny at all you suck
its an epidemic in your heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaart
because they're not "ripping off" each other you retard
Well he's a jerk so don't mind him. And I think he's mistaking you for the OP. Or maybe he's just being more of a jerk then normal.Ah, my intent was sarcasm. Not looking to upset anyone. I'm well aware of the fact that they're not ripping each other off. My point is that these "this sounds the same as this" threads just seem a little redundant, that's all.
No need for verbal violence.
