Roach or Oasis that sounded like either of those two (in terms of music

*yeah that is true particularly of modern bands, but kj influences like 
- adam and the ants, chic, kraftwerk, glitter etc are there -
as are blues/folk in zepplin or carl perkins/gene vincent/eddie cochran 
in the beatles. yet after learning and a practicing a vocabulary based 
on their musical influences these bands developed their own language as 
talented creative musicians will.

it is more common for modern "musicians" to not take
time to learn the musical approach an influence had, and instead take 
influence from the shear momentum of being in a group and aspire to 
emulate the media/cultural success of a previous artist. in turn their 
music bears no vocabulary beyond some rudiment garnered from their 
limited perspective, i.e. oasis

not that less modern artists hadn't emulated an influence merely from a 
aesthetic business approach before, ex: presley f/ sinatra, prince f/ 
richard pettiman etc. but the non musical influence approach does seem 
more and more the approach taken.
