    MQ: I'm not sure if you're thinking just inside metal, but the first thing to pop into my head when listening was "Message In A Bottle" by the Police

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MbXWrmQW-OE&ob=av3n

    MQ2: Despite the fact that it has such a raw production, I liked it a lot. It had a very beautiful, epic atmosphere at times, and other time it was aggressive without being too brutal. I think I would have liked it more with "shiny" production, but that aside, it was surprisingly enjoyable... maybe I'm building up a tolerance to scuzz, lol.

    BQ:

    "Psychosocial" by Slipknot at 0:24

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wws7mnMewPw&ob=av2n

    sounds like it was directly rip off from 0:14 of "Ride The Lightning" by Metallica

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uebInqG1pJI

    "Fear Circus" by Adagio at the beginning sound like the main riff to "Walk" by Pantera

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2s1ReVvbqKc

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AkFqg5wAuFk&ob=av2e

    "Right Side Of The Bed" by Atreyu at the intro sounds like it was ripped off from "The Hive" by In Flames

    OMG I wanted to ask a similar question tron!!!

    I have no idea but it instantly reminded me of Blue Öyster Cult - Don't Fear (The Reaper) ~

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=loHFIyOFEH0

    I get these Deja Vu's extremely often I'll try to list some examples for you right away!! =D

    I recognized the intro immediately it's not BOC but I can't lay my finger on it... it sounds AWFULLY familiar and maybe more common than it seems...

    Nice keyboards induce Black Metal... Pretty good from what I hear but not all to gripping in the OMG!! way. Still interesting... I ain't sleeping cuz of that intro mind you!!

    It happens to me just about every couple of songs I ALWAYS hear passages from completely non related stuff. I can think of two examples off the bast --->

    Draconian - My Slumber Did My Spirit Heal

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bOytWcrwowo

    I love that song!! At the 1:00 minute mark or so you hear a very special hook which is quiet similar (astonishingly enough) to Metallica's Sanitarium (listen to the riff @ 0:55)~

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WElvEZj0Ltw

    Also a very strange yet wierdly familiar coice would be Sigh's epic Black passage in the song "Ready For The Final War" @ the 1:20 minute mark.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dpd4PM1LB1U

    Now listen to THIS closely same epic progression (it's weird I know but LISTEN!!!) ~

    Pay attention at the 0:37 mark it really sounds kinda similar

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mEb83QKnt50

    * Sorry for all the rumbling but hey you asked for it!!! Nice seeing you again man :D

    Source(s): I'll keep searching. I'm POSITIVE I heard it before!!!

    sounds slightly familiar to that one part of tom sawyer by rush, the "what you say about his company is what you say about society" part. it's a stretch though

    mq2: it's pretty good actually. i haven't listened to any black metal in a long time so it's refreshing

    bq: some green day song copped 25 or 6 to 4 but the rest is my imagination
