  • cool stuff I like!!!

    please check out our video Gang Bang Hotel chain and post a comment if you like it!

  • I love godsmack! Did you know early on they were an Alice in Chains cover band? This is no shit but they deny it now. They also deny where they got the name of the bane. Godsmack is the name of an AIC song.

  • "Godsmack" is also a term such as carma, and when in a studio one member was harassing another about a fever blester,only to show up the following week with one of his on. then told is was "Godsmacking" him back for the prior weeks harassment.

  • they weren't an aic cover band. the guitarist was in one. get yo shit right boyee

  • @JASONJUNKHeD I have an old Godsmack DVD, and Sully himself that they got the name from an old Alice in Chains song...are they denying it as of recently or what?

  • @JASONJUNKHeD that myth has been cleared up in 2007.... what i would suggest is that you read Sully´s autobiography and see for yourself that most of the band members where already in the music scene long before AIC began their career..... tut tut old news

  • @neojimmy721 aic has been around since like 89

  • @Sickness796 And?

    Sully started as a drummer for several heavy metal bands in the early 80´s and Shannon was drumming for wrathchild America in 78, long before AIC was around, Sully himself stated on his autobiaography that his influences were bands like Led Zep, Aerosmith and other bands in that genre while shannons influences are based on drummers like John Bonham and Neil Peart... Tony was the only band member that played in a grunge influenced band before signing up with Godsmack

  • i seen them in crue fest 2 when they came to boston fuckign amazing, i cant wait for there new cd, i just wish i knew what month and the day it was coming out

  • yay!!!

  • i am dieing for the new album!!!

    its gonna be heavy folks!

  • god that narrator chick's voice is annoying

  • would you imagine tha the new GODSMACKS cdcd wold be better than faceless, because, i mean facelesrecord has some kind of magick in every song !! that i cant imagine another cd that can make me dream like faceless!!!!!!

  • The new album name is Saints and Sinners. Catchy name. :D

  • saddly if you havent heard the newest update about the album title it was changed to Godsmack: Oracle

  • Correction to correction: It's called "The Oracle", not "Godsmack:Oracle"

  • yes yes new

  • Godsmack got an interesting album coming out.  All aggressive all balls out!

  • Kicks Ass !!!

    Fuckin Live shit man Godsmack is fuckin awesome

  • hey back too the faceless men thats a realy kick asssssssss album

  • your forgetting spiral

  • Yeah, but they want heavier songs on the album. Voodoo & serenity are a bit soft and less aggressive than what they are hoping for.

  • yeah hopefuly itll more like there faceless and awake.

  • Yay. Godsmack are one of the few rock bands I like. Hopefully it is close to that of Pantera or Ektomorf.

  • I've never heard him talk, he has a very weird voice when he's not singing. He's an amazing singer though. This new album should be good, but I think if they tap into their more 'agressive' side, that could result in a total twist in their music style, which may be for the better, but maybe not. Usually when bands change their play style its not a good thing [look at Metallica's St. Anger album..... lol].

  • yeah st anger wasnt great ....death magnetic is fuckin killer though

  • this can be really good. heavy, agressive Godsmack=good.

  • this will be the best album of godsmack!!!! the masters of rock n roll and metal

  • YEY

  • Man I can't believe ppl r still pissy about the way they got there name. I hear it's in Sully's book, but if you watch thier first dvd they tell you in that right after they joke about supposeably stealing it from 'Alice and Chains. But who the Fuck cares. It's not like stealing the name from Chains is what made thier music great DAMN PPL !!!!

  • I agree with you. The evidence is in my profile. Everyone, who doesn't believe what the guy above me said, just watch the uploaded parts from the DVD and see for yourself.

  • Update i did read the book and the alice and chains song inspired the there name however there was an inside joke made about a coldsore being a smack in the face from god which they refer to as a 'godsmack' and that was how the name was finalized!!!! SO FUCKIN LAY OFF PPL

  • dude that vein on the neck is fucking awesome,i got one as well but not THAT big :P

  • that is pretty sick man lol

  • Yeah they rocked, Ive saw the crue twice now, saw them in 87' w/guns&roses, Both time i saw them, their opening act kicked their ass lol, the crue needs someone like willy nelson opening so they will look better when they play HA HA!

  • i saw godsmack at cruefest they kicked ass

  • I Fuckin Loved Faceless Man I Hope The New Album Is Like That Great Metal Great Hooks Great Chourses Bad Add Album My Fav One

  • yeah the one on the left side looks like it is going to explode and that would be a true loss this band is just flat out amazing.

  • If the new album is really in your face and heavy that will be awesome i'll buy it

  • Ah c'mon I'm sick of this! Godsmack, Alice in chains... duh... EF this! Both bands rock! Period! I don't care even if the name of the band is taken from the song. I love Godsmack and I have a great respect for Alice in chains. Both bands are great so quit it...

  • hey man i cant wait for godsmacks new album they came to montreal twice 2004 opening up for the kings of metal as you know them METALLICA!!!!!!!!!! and then they came back in 2006 hell yeah godsmack rules

  • Sully explained where the name came from in his book. People should read it it's a good book, plus he put's the Alice in Chains myth to rest

  • You bought it from the Internet? xD I saw I can buy it from their official website ^^

  • I saw a video of Sully talking about it and he says that the song on that CD called God Smack influenced the choice, but wasn't the direct source. Plus, does it really matter? Alice in Chains and Godsmack are fucking amazing.

  • hell! i totally agree! i LOVE alice in chains AND godsmack kicks ass! so y da hell do we need to complain about the name?!?!

  • Nareście nowy album zaje bedzie!!!

  • hell yeah yay yay yay new agresive album of godsmack

  • OH HELL YEAH!!! That's going to kick so much ass!

  • Sully Erna and Ryan McCombs sitting next to each other.

    Awesome.

  • i can imagine the solo album will be sold with the new album together as a package

  • WHAT r some of Godsmacks new songs??

    cause i wanna know them 4 Crue Fest..

    wooooo!!!

  • whisky hangover is one of the songs

  • Just listen to Godsmack 4. Those are the newest on a album. But thier newsest is Whiskey Hangover

  • Speak. Straight Out of Line. Vampires. Whatever. Greed. Awake. Faceless. I Stand Alone.Moon Baby. Voodoo. Whisky Hangover is their latest.

  • You should check out their drum battle between Sully and Shannon. Its the best part of the show!!

  • yea.. they did it wen i went to Crue Fest 2..

    it was Fucking AMAZING!

  • they got the name godsmack from sully making fun of someone that had a cold sore on his lip and then like a week later he had one on his lip, then someone said "God Smacked you", and their ya go....want proof go read Sully's book its in there.

  • Finally someone said that, i soo got tired of all the " they got their name from Alice in Chains" stuff. Yes Alice in Chains ,as Godsmack officially have said ,are their primary influence but they ,by my opinion, have very little in common with them and are a lot better , one of the few relatively new metal bands that fuckin rocks. Let's see if their new album will also be as good as their music so far.

  • yeah its annoying when people keep saying that, it does say the alice and chains thing on wikipedia but as any smart person can tell you you can't trust that sight for information. And yes lets see if their new album will have good music they haven't failed before.

  • btw he didnt say "God Smacked You" He said "It's a Godsmack!"

  • TheOneYouForsaken. This is how Sully explains how they got their name. Not from Alice In Chains.

  • Correct nikola he said "It's a Godsmack!" not "God smacked you"

  • no they just lied about this because they didn't want people to say that they took their name from Alice in Chains song God Smack

    it is the evidence! and if you check the acoustic DVD in Las Vegas, they say that they don't want any question about the band name....and honestly, the story about the cold sore is the most stupid reason ever to make the name of a band!

  • not trying to start anything but why would Sully lie in his book?

  • I think it wouldn't be good for him and the band to reveal after all those years that they lied about the origin of the name

    when you say something like this lie, which is not a ''big dangerous'' one you are somewhat starting believing it for real and you don't care about if it is real or not... you know like a sort of story you create for yourself.... but anyway that's my opinion and whatever you say I'll still think this way, but I just wanted to place this other guess in your head ;)

  • Lol that is interesting but honestly I just love their music I really dont care how they got their name or what it is if it was "JesusHit" I would listen to them either way their a great band. But any who thats just what I read in his book but now that this info is out their now I dont know anymore XS lmao

  • yeah you're absolutly right, I'm not a fan of their new stuff though

  • actually i saw a video where he disclosed where they got the name of the band from, and yeah its true that they did take it from alice i chain's song God Smack but Sully also cleared it with the band and their management if it would be okay...and they were cleared to use it and sully has been forever greatful to them for allowing him to use it.

  • awesome! cannot fuckin wait! though i do like a few soft tracks. it would be nice to end it with one soft one. but oh well its new Godsmack! thats all i need to hear!

  • I can't fucking wait, they took so long!!!!!

    And for the motherfuckers, I don't see why someone would steal something from AIC, they completely suck. They got the name in a cold store. Search for "Godsmack - The name", sully explains how they found the name. Asswipe.

  • Alice in Chains is one of the most influential bands on the 90s. They completely blow Nirvana out of the water.

  • Does it look like Godsmack fans care?

  • brutal record eh?....cant f***ing wait!

  • awake was a bad ass record but faceless was bad ass more but i like awake!!

  • balls out! woo! XD

    cant wait!! :D

  • no sounds like voodoo... This Album will be Perfect

  • i wish the next album is like Faceless

  • Well Smackalicious..as Jerry Cantrell stated about people sayin what songs mean"who gives a fuck it's just a song" ...put the shit in and CRANK it LOL

  • Sully sounds like..Sully, Cornell sounds like... Cornell, Layne sounded like... Layne.And besides I've never heard Sully refer to A.I.C. as an influence. Aerosmith, Rush, Zep, yes. Watch the Changes DVD it's cool, (insert CD, crank it up BLAST TO THE MOON BABY)

  • Sporttboy1969....Thank you very much!!!!  I don't know where people get off saying that bull shit.... Sully has his own voice and does not sound at all like Layne or anyone for that matter.... 13 top ten singles beats everyone!!!! Love that band!!!!

  • Best Bands out there, along with a kick ass stage show. Solly never fails to deliver. More guys more and soon.

  • WHAT THE FUCK. his Jugular vein or (whatever) is amazingly huge. whats wrong with him, everytime he speaks i'm scared that it will pop and blood will go everywhere

  • who cares

    dude it probably helps with the aggressive vocals he has to do

  • Yeah really!!! Can't wait!!

  • It won't blow. It's so big, because he has very strong and brutal voice.

  • ya i was trying to amagine this guy i pictured some strong big ass dude with a beard and long ass hair like zakk wylde

  • yeah m2 I cant wait it

  • I'll see you 2 there.

  • there are plenty of bands out there that have gotten their names from the title of another band's song and if you're gonna do it then why not name it after a song by the greatest band ever, Alice In Chains. See AIC is my fav band but Godsmack comes in a close second. I really can't hear too much of Alice in Godsmack but you can tell there's definitely an inspiration but shit Led Zeppelin got a lot of flack for copying lyrics from blues artists, so is Led Zeppelin crap too? I didn't think so...

  • hey megabadass30fag listen to sk8kow. godsmack is not band trying to be AIC! listen to godsmack's music you stupid F***! if you can't tell the difference between GS AND AIC then you really need to craw back under that rock that you've been living under the last 11 years and stay there without saying any more. seriously, your comments are beyond retarded and since you don't know anything about GODSMACK then you need to walk away, shut your mouth and do what's good for you before you get SMACKED!

  • I want a Faceless 2

    Faceless...the best album of this fucking world

  • finally!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • whiskey hangover or good times bad times are not heavy or agressive at all...I mean.. I Stand Alone or Awake were heavy..I hope the others songs are going to be better

  • good times bad times isnt their song. its not meant to be. its led zeppelin obviously

  • i cant wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • how do you know that?

  • look it upp.

  • i cant wait, this band is fucking amazing.

  • why do so many idiots think godsmack is trying to copy alice in chains, you really have no clue fucking idiot, and for the album its going to be more like awake and godsmack, godsmack, sully was influenced more by dead can dance than anyone, not heroin dying idiots that cant control themselves

  • dude, let me give you two examples, that EP godsmack made with the acoustic songs, alice in chains thought of it first, it's called Jar Of Flies. and even the name "godsmack" is an AIC song, so shut your mouth.

  • hey retard "megabadass", ive been following them for over 11 years...

    number one, they'd laugh in your face by saying they copied alice in chains cause its not FUCKING true. Sully quotes that layne was a big influence, but the bands name comes from an inside joke/incident

    and the acoustic EP ? it was a way for them to show off that they are talented musicians...

    Godsmack has a song called shinedown, has anyone gave either band shit for that song? NO...

    you're an ignorant cunt. hahahaha

  • nobody's giving shinedown shit because they're not trying to sound like godsmack, shinedown is trying to sound like soundgarden.

    Douchefag

  • by the way, the band shinedown came out before the song

  • do you actually enjoy music? Or do you look for the similarities in bands and go "oh no, they're not 100% original i can't listen to them!" Honestly bands are gonna have influences and influences will come out in the music, but saying a band is trying to be something they're not isn't something you can say. Unless you heard Brent smith or any of the other band members say such a thing, your comment holds no value what so ever.

  • I do enjoy music, I never said these bands weren't good. But Brent Smith sounds exactly like Cornell a bunch of their songs.

  • No actually he doesn't. Cornell sounds like he had cotton balls stuck in his throat every time he says something. Brent smith actually has a huge amount of singing talent inside of him. Some of the accents brent puts on his vocals can sound a little like cornell but let's be honest here. They're 2 completely different vocalists and songwriters.

  • I'm not disagreing with you, just saying listen to "Heroes" by shinedown

  • i know the song, i own the album, but there was really no point in you making a comment that completely disrespects an artist.

  • i'm not disrespecting the artist, just saying he sounds just like Cornell

  • Yeah dude.....if you knew anything about Godsmack you'd know where they got their name and it definitely was not from

    AIC...it was from a cold sore you asswipe....13 top ten singles!!!! no need to say more...lol!!!!!

  • ha ha dude, i'm being serious, i havn't heard anyone use the word "asswipe" in a long time, you made my day man! thanks, i don't even feel like arguing anymore, so you guys win! asswipe, fucking hilarious dude, you're awesome, thanks again man, enjoy your favorite music!

    if you like godsmack, check out my favorites, there might be something else you like!

  • i really hope they do a 2010 tour in america. cuz i can't go to cruefest this year. i have no money

  • SWEEEEEEEEEEEET can't wait

  • YESSSSSSS. their new stuffs gunna be more like the faceless album. BEST ALBUM EVER!!!!!!

  • faceless was the shit

    good ole definition of hard rock

    but im torn between awake & the self titled debut...

    MOONBABY is my all time favorite from them tho.....

  • Hmmmm...tough but I'd have to go with Awake!!!!!

  • wow brutal from godsmack. i could c that coming , it fuckin awesome

  • fuk yaaaa

  • So I guess this is going to be a very METAL record...

  • Fucking yes! One of the best modern metal bands will strike again! I can't wait for the new album.

  • i guess godsmack goes back to the way they use to be, cant fuckin wait, i thoght they were gonna stay a softer band, but i gues i was wrong, and im happy i was. Not that theres anything wrong with the songs on IV, they r some of my favorite songs, especially Livin In Sin

  • mannnn, I can't wait that long!!!
