When a group copies another band but does it so well, they stop being simple scene chasers as they`ve basically become as good as the bands they were copying or were heavily inspired by and I`ve always felt Machine Head fell into this category.
Burn My Eyes-Pantera
The Blackening- Metallica MOP and AJFA era
The above are two obvious copying/reference points and I`d say Machine Head are as good as both these bands.
