(Lord Of) Putrefaction's early demo track "Tafophobia" rips off that fast main riff from Slayer's "Jesus Saves."

Don't know if this has been posted, but the middle part of Under the Oak by Candlemass is exactly the same than the first part of Camel's Mystic Queen.

The Beast - Randall Flagg/Megadeth - Hangar 18
And Mustaine for sure has seen this band live when Metallica spent some time in New York, shortly before they kicked him out...
Dug dugadug riff in Adramelch's "Dreams of a Jester" = dug dugadug riff in Atheist's "On They Slay".

Just noticed Rude Awakening's 'You Mean So Much' manages to pilfer Iron Maiden's 'Prodigal Son' & weld it onto Ace Frehley's 'Fractured Mirror' yet they still manage to turn gold into excrement with some of the sappiest lyrics you'll ever hear.

Has anyone else noticed one of the riffs in The Deluge by Manilla Road sound very similar to Golden Showers by the Mentors?

No comments necessary, but it is fascinating how some of these bands just shamelessly nicked a Big Classic Metal-Riff and then went their own way with it. There's plenty more examples from this particular scene for sure...

Just realised that Danzig's 'Snakes Of Christ' was (ahem) 'inspired' by The Dictators' 'Minnesota Strip'. Contrast & compare...
