Come To Life rip-off

Post by Pietrek »

So, my roommate was listening to Sons of Anarchy soundtrack and this song kicked in...

Cool song but the similarities to Come to Life are pretty much non-existing in my opinion. Definitly not a rip-off.

It's not even close.
Metallica - Sad But True and A7X - This Means War. That's a rip-off.

Not even close to being a rip-off. The only thing that's "the same" is the key and the fact that they go to the IV chord for a moment after the riff.

Maybe it's just me and maybe I've overused the term "rip-off". I feel a bit stupid now. :D

Funny you should say that as Morgan Rose is the current drummer for Methods of Mayhem

Alter Bridge themselves have got closer to ripping off Come to Life than those guys have with that song. Although the verse melody did seem very slightly similar.

I was planning on mentioning exactly these two aspects but you did it for me :D

If you feel stupid, you'll fit in here perfectly. :lol

I do hear that similarity in the chord progressions in the verse but the rest of the song is so different in tone that I wouldn't thought of it as a copy.
Another photobucket casualty... :(

I can see why you would think that it sounds similar. At the end of the riff there's a chord played part that is the same as in CTL
