I think you're being a little too defensive with the fact that someone doesn't agree with your opinion. I don't have to explain why i think they sound cookie cutter as I mentioned before the way you may take in things is different than how I would. I already said I respected your opinion or rather "u still cool for liking what you like." But even if I posted a whole list of bands with a similar sound and concept.... you like this song so you are going to hear it how you want to. And cookie cutter is such a loose term, if there was an actual definition of what the ideal cookie cutter band would be... then of course it wouldn't even be a term. Every band is going to sound at least a little different, but the idea of the direction of this sound TO ME has been done before and is very popular right now. Get a hot dark look, play a few heavy chords and throw in an ok solo. BAM success. A cookie cuter band to me is a band that plays it safe. This was safe. Their older stuff might not have been amazing either, but at least I could tell it was BFN right away. If this song came up on random, the only reason I'd know it was them would be the dying demon frog in Ice's throat. -shrug- That is my opinion. Take it or leave it. I'm not saying hey don't like them. Or hey they really suck a lot. I'm just saying this is bland. and the music isn't very impressive based on my tastes and views on the common mediocre standards.
I'm not going to post again because this is getting off topic and too tense.
