Rip-Off

I don't know if anybody else has noticed, but there's some Linkin' Park video clip (I think it's Papercut or something) that seems to be somewhat similar to Stinkfist. For example, there's a blue man in a room that looks similar to a stinkfist room.
Why can't people just do their own thing and not rape other people's ideas?

i really hated linkin park before that video... but after i saw it... man... that really sucks...

Stinkfist is one of the nicest videos... thats for sure...

Linkin Park ripped off Mudvayne?

I very highly doubt that. As far as I know, Linkin Park could not even handle playing in odd time signatures, or get a grasp on the awesome percussion skills of Matt McDonough, not to mention that their shitty bassist couldn't possibly cover as much ground as Ryan Martinie. I mean, really.

Linkin Park sux

THis has got to be the most blatant hack job I have ever seen. THe song sux and yhey can't even be original. Well that's no suprise for a band he [i heard] doesn't even write their own music. They're a Nu-metal boyband which makes my blood f--kin' curdle!!!

im different, i guess

i kinda like Linkin Park, but not enough to care whether or not they copied. I mean, if they did copy off of the stinkfist video, at least it inspired them enough to try to do something similar. Im not trying to stand up for them or anything, but isnt the whole point of music and videos to inspire people to do things they normally wouldnt even try? To make people think and analyze something, to try to attain a different perspective on something?Im an artist, and Tool and their videos have been there to inspire me through many years. And people say im copying, but thats not the case. Im just trying to do something creative, and since Tool inspired me to do something, yeah, it may look like something they have done or would do. I guess that means Adam and I have similar brain patterns, or something. If its something that makes you think and question your existence then ive fulfilled my goal.
