Before i go off talking about this, which i most certanly will, in time, answer this question since it is the entire reason we are arguing in the first place.
How do Chevelle and Staind sound SO similar? I mean apart from the givens and simple ones resulting from being in the same genre...what else is there?

Staind was probably a bad example since they're acoustic but when they kick into the more heavy parts they're very similar, though Chevelle tends to be faster and less melodic.Similar guitar tones, both have "afflicted" vocals, lyrics dealing with depressive issues, in addition to the similar tones (on the electric guitars) all their songs are typical power chord rock with the bass mirroring the notes. Songs like the Red are more similar I guess but they still are pretty similar at points, the other bands I compared them to are more close but I guess thats why you ignored them.

I have to go for a few hours, but am more than willing to continue this later.

I've been backing up my opinions and explaining them. You've been selective in your responding to them only responding to the stuff you can actually argue because the simple fact is: Chevelle aren't original they're very typical. So you can drop the Conor/Elliott argument (which I still don't understand what you're trying to achieve by bringing up since I've only ever said they were original at certain points in their career and you're arguing that Elliott just ripped off Conor's unreleased material or something I don't understand) and if you want to respond you can actually respond to the entire argument instead of just bits and parts of it that you feel like responding to. |

Yeah the only real comparison to Tool you can make with Chevelle is the vocal style. The music isn't nearly as well crafted as Tool. But Chevelle is still one of the better mainstream bands out there.
