    They have the same 'members' in the group, but their sound is a bit different. I wouldn't say they're 100% based on LP, but a good amount.

    Hmm, you're right, their style does remind me a lot of Linkin Park's style, especially in that second video link. However, they still sound pretty good imo.

    They do sound alright, I guess, but it'd be nearly impossible for me to get into them with such an obviously ripped off sound.

    I wouldn't say "ripoff", but they are 100% like Linkin Park it seems. I'm horrible with memory, so I can't place my finger on it, but the first video link, it even sounded like a linkin park song starting.

    There's a resemblence, but I don't think its care to call them a ripoff. There are a million rap-rock bands out there. They're not too bad, now only if I knew what the hell they were saying

    Not close enough to LP to call it a rip off. It's clear they stole some elements of Linkin Park's sound but the rapping/singing isn't like Linkin Park at all.

    I miss the nu metal days
    i guess that they like LP, theres nothing wrong about trying to sound like one of your favorite bands.

    bad was the bushido faint video rip off..

    well they have a bit of success over here. but everyone i know calls them a linkin park rip-off. i read a review of their album where the reviewer brought up the comparison a few times, too.

    by the way, it's a german band ;)

    From what I can tell, there is a resemblance between this band's sound and Linkin Park's rap/rock sound. It's not a 100% resemblance, but there are definitely some elements in their sound that are very similar.

    I actually kind of like the sound, despite not being able to understand what they're saying. I wouldn't call this a rip-off. This is just a band that has some similar elements. I wouldn't be surprised if these guys had heard of Linkin Park or if their sound was partly inspired by them.

    But yeah, don't be so quick to call it a blatant rip-off.
