eh, I'll agree about the song redneck, it's boring.

I'll be the frst to admit that I do like LoG, so flame all you want, its my opinion, not yours. Andy I give you credit for at least trying again, if it's not your thing, then it's not your thing, but kudos for at least giving them another shot.

I see alot of different influences in their music:
Meshuggah-esque choppy rhythms
Pantera-esque agression
Testament-esque triplet/thrash riffs

but I also see alot of other things:
vocally, Randy, may not be your favorite singer, but he can command the crowd, and that's one of the things that makes him a great frontman

the drummer has machine-like timing, not just in the studio, but live too

the tandem guitar work is really good, both guitarists are very talented.

so, while Lamb of God may not be your cup of tea, you can't deny that they have talent.

I mean, if you're going to say band X is a ripoff of band Y, you can say that about alot of local bands too, like:
Shroud is a rip off of My Dying Bride, Novembers Doom, and old Theatre of Tragedy (I'm not saying we're rip offs, but we draw HUGE influence from all of them, you get my point)

just because you show drawn influence from other bands, doesn't make you a rip-offf or a clone, it just shows where you draw influence from.
