Theres always the "Sounan and Blackout sound nothing alike. The first second sounds nothing like it. The next second sounds nothing like it. The third second sounds a little like it, but the fourth second doesn't" guy

Except that's not at all what he did. He examined the songs, pointing out the specific differences, and considering out of all of us, he probably has some of the most understanding about playing music (or at least Bass), I find his approach much better than your "Sounan and Blackout sound the same BECAUSE I SAY SO!"

I feel like it would really be REACHING to get on-board with this whole "Each new wave of releases includes at least one song which sounds like Blackout". I mean, even if there ARE correlations, they aren't anywhere near as overt and undeniable as the Superstar and Killer Tune clones.

I need to know which are those Killer Tune clones. I don't recall any, for good or bad.

Gaman? Maybe just for the "too much"-ness of Ringo's vocals.

The only really clone-y sort of Jihen songs to me are Senkou Shoujo & 21st Century blahblah.

This argument is older than salt, back when the album came out it was alot of people's first comment on the song. If you honestly can't hear it and are not just trying to stick up for some pet song that is just above the poverty line in creativity, then you're more than welcome than try to pony up some incentive for me to have to listen to these songs again so as to school y'all.

For reality's sake, I agree with you. I do think Sounan and Blackout sound similar. But that doesn't mean that other people have to, and those that can support their conclusion with analysis are obviously more persuasive than those who simply say "They just ARE!"
