    Nickleback, Disturbed (Although I enjoy their album Ten Thousand Fist), and Shinedown.

    Disagree. There old stuff sounded more punk. Their new stuff is almost dance-like. I don't like their new stuff but their first 3 albums were good.

    Gotta give 'em one thing though...love 'em or hate 'em, they're still making obscene amounts of cash to get drunk and sing about pickin' up women.

    Yeah, I thought rap had a monopoly on that until Nickelback came along :lol:

    Also add Avenged Sevenfold to the list of bands whose all songs sound alike. I very clearly noticed it when on my drive home today, both Octane and Faction (on Sirius) were playing different A7X songs at the same time, yet I couldn't tell a difference between the two.

    Aren't you the one who usually has a fit when someone mentions Linkin Park outside of the Linkin Park sections of the forum?

    This is exactly what I went through listening to Trapt. :x I haven't listened to them in ages but I still like the first album ... and, like, one or two songs from the subsequent ones.

    Without Casey LPF is nothing.

    I say TEN THOUSAND FISTS ITS DISTURBED!

    I'm happy no one has said The White Stripes so far. Let it remain that way. OH! Fucking Evanescence sound the same since day one. Again anyone with such a whiney female voice as Amy Lee usually produces the same kind of music.

    She was only whiny on their last album imo. Everything before that was beautiful.

    I was about to drop Evanescence in. I have one album of theirs and can't listen through the whole thing because it's all the same.

    The entire section of bands that sound like Three Days Grace make that type of sound so old that I can't enjoy even Three Days Grace anymore. Though this is more related to being oversaturated than just staying the same over time. I quit radio because of this.

    I'm going to drop one of my ex's favourite bands in. Cannibal Corpse. Fucking hate that band and their death metal yelling. All their songs literally sound the same.

    BTW Harlz. Cold Chisel HAS to be the best Aussie band there was. Slowly followed by Savage Garden and Silverchair/Midnight Oil.

    ...what is LPF?

    Also, I thought Amy Lee had a relatively deep voice for a girl. Regardless, despite liking Evanescence, their music doesn't strike me as too diverse (maybe diverse in quality, but not overall sound haha).

    The simple truth is that most bands out there have some kind of core sound in which they branch out of (with some exceptions which have been mentioned in this thread already). It's kinda unfair to judge a band because of maybe having one element that repeats in a lot of songs. I think that at least having some identity is a good thing.

    That is fine, but if they have been around for over a decade and all their songs from all their albums don't just have common elements but are practically indistinguishable I think that it would be a valid criticism of the band. There is a difference between identity and artistic laziness.
