Otherway around buddy. Oomph! came first and pioneered that style of rock/metal. They don't even sound that similar anyway. Rammstein uses simple sythesizer beats to make a rave friendly techno dance song, whereas Oomph uses complex sythesizer noises going for an electronica, almost avant garde approach. Vocal are completely different too. Rammstein is basically singing opera and Oomph has several different vocal styles from traditional rock, metal growling, ect.

Yes it was a point, if you want to judge music by complexity/innovation etc. then Godsmack is pretty low down on the list.

Seriously, we're talking about a crappy AiC-lite nu metal band here.

Hell. King Crimson can do nu metal better than any nu metal band can.

Well yeah, but I don't consider them nu metal.

I consider them funk metal, along with Primus, Mr. Bungle, Living Colour and early Incubus.

Nu metal is basically a watered down imitation of funk and groove metal.

calling mr. bungle funk metal is kind of the epitome of pigeonholing, isn't it?
