Godsmack VS. Staind (lyrics, bass, metal, pearl jam, metallica)

Beor Uaine · 04-01-2004, 12:23 PM

What band do you think is more talented? I have to go with Staind.
Staind are such better song writers and musicians IMO. I also prefer Aaron's voice over Sully's. Godsmack's songs sound all the same to me.
I liked Godsmack when they were starting out, but now I've lost interest in them. I also heard Godsmack unplugged and wasn't too impressed with them.
I prefer Staind unplugged over Godsmack. Plus, Aaron does a good cover of "Black" by Peal Jam.

i don't listen to either of them..
but i would definately have to go with Staind.
IMO he's talented and i'd rather hear him than Godsmack. i never really liked them too much.

I like Godsmack better.. Stain'd are boring IMO.

i'm gonna hafta go with staind. i like his voice better, and i just connect more with the lyrics. godsmack, i dunno, they just kind of seem to not have alot of variation.

I find Staind's lyrics very deep, on the same wave length as Alice In Chains. RIP Layne.

Both are overhyped. But... if I had to pick one it would be the old Godsmack.

Staing is better than godsmack, their singing and lyrics and songs are just...better.

those of you criticizing godsmack for being the same really need to listen to staind some more. all aaron lewis used to sing about is how much his life sucks in damn near every song. now all he sings about is how suddenly his life is great and he can love himself again. no kidding, that tends to happen when you earn millions and millions a year. and his lyrics aren't that deep, the deepest lyrics for any song he sings is Black and thats not even his song, its eddie vedder's. if you want deep lyrics, go with someone who could actually write good lyrics and listen to pearl jam. and i've also seen both bands in concert, staind is a snooze and godsmack puts on a great show and has great music and sully is one of the better front men going. lastly, metallica is the best band in the world, they would only want the next best traveling with them for they're tour, funny they picked godsmack over staind.
