A couple of other rip offs I've noticed are: On the new Battlezone cd(which
sucks) , the middle of one song completely rips off Priest's Rapid Fire.
There's a guitar solo on In Flames Whoracle that is note for note the
same solo as a song on Arch Enemy's Black Earth cd.
A song on Sentenced's Amok cd is a direct copy of Bathory's Under The
Runes. Just different lyrics.
Good thing bands don't listen to each others music or there would be
lawsuits flying around.

I don't see it.
Be Quick or Be Dead sounds a bit too much like Rainbow's Light in Black.

Ha! I'm glad I'm not the only one that noticed that! Both the Maiden and
Priest rips! That album's okay... not that great though. It's the only
thing I've hear of Iron Savior, but I've heard a bit of other Kai
stuff, this was definitely the most plain.
Is it me or does it seem like Kai is just about every where in
European metal? Forget six degrees of Kevin Bacon, it's six Degrees of Kai!

A little bit of a rip-off perhaps, although I'm sure he doesn't care and
probably did it on purpose. I too was not overly impressed with
Unification, although it wasn't bad. I'd say Powerplant and Unification
as a whole were minor disappointments this year. A couple of good
songs, but nothing that really stood out.

When I first heard Feel My Pain I more or less though that it 'sucked',
but after several listens in the course of a few weeks after getting it
I thought it was pretty decent. No, it's nowhere near the 80's releases,
but it was much better than Killers' Menace To Society. Paul sounds
good (better than with Dennis on the Iron Man albums) and the band is
very good especially with John Wiggins on guitar, but the sound of the
snare drum on this album is horrible. Notwithstanding I really like the
songs Smack, The Forgotten Ones, and the thrashy Push and Snake Eyes.
Overall, I gave it a 6.5 out of 10.
As for the Priest rip-off, which song was it that you noticed that on?

Yep, he is. Maybe because his band(Helloween, that is) was one of the first
that could be considered power metal, at least that's my theory.
> Forget six degrees of Kevin Bacon, it's six Degrees of Kai!
Indeed. He has been worked at various times with Helloween, Gamma Ray, Iron
Savior, Primal Fear, HammerFall, Blind Guardian, Udo, and who knows who
else. He's also supposed to be working on some sort of side project with
Edguy, that could be impressive. Of course, Hansi Kursh gets around almost
as much...

A little bit of a rip-off perhaps, although I'm sure he doesn't care and
I don't really care for Victims hence I usually skip it which is why I
didn't recognize the rip-off. I also thought the redo of Children Of
Madness '98 was completely butchered. As for Menace To Society, I only
like Conscience (which is the only song that resembles anything from
Murder One, strangely enough was one of the only songs left off of
Killers Live And Rare) and Past Due and Three Words aren't as bad as the
others, overall though I thought this was very disappointing.
>I prefer the first 2 Battlezone cd's though, and of
>course the Almost flawless Murder One.
Yes, Murder One was an absolute gem. Other than rehashing Remember
Tomorrow again, that disc is just about perfect, one of my favorites of
the 90's.
> I don't like a single song off Feel My Pain and

You need to re-listen to the last minute of Forgotten Ones when he belts
out "Reecheeeein Out" which I think sounds just awesome. Granted he
doesn't do that very often on the album, but I thought he sounded better
on here than on the previous couple he did. You are right about him
having the most power with Murder One though.

Depends on what you consider European metal. He is not in English
metal. He is not in Scandinavian metal and other black metal.

Add Angra to that list. Maybe Heaven's Gate as well. I can't remeber whether
he did some work on a Heaven's Gate albume or not. I'll have to look it up
when I get the time.

Hansi, IMHO, has made quite a lesser impact than Kai has on their respective
additions to other bands material. And speaking of the joining of band
members, I just got the album Sinergy - Beware the Heavens (a union of the
guitarist/vocalist of Children of Bodom and Jesper - guitarist of In Flames)
today. It's pretty good. Typical melodies and riffs that you'd expect from
those guys. The only difference from their primary bands music is the
juxtaposition of female operatic vocals with the doom vocals.

I never noticed that. A few songs on Mercyful fate's Melissa seemed to be rips
(the riffs anyway) of a few other songs, but I didn't have time to place them.

Ah well I'm glad that I've found someone else who agrees with me about
both these albums, I think they certainly were minor-to-medium
disappointments.
If anyone wants Unification, send me your trade lists.

I'm listening to it right now. There had to be a reason why that song is my
favorite off Unification... the solo in the beginning is just absolutely
mind-boggling.
As for bands ripping off each other, I think it's unintentional in most
cases. After all, there are only so many chords and scales.
