Looks like the band is not only on more drugs than Amy Winehouse - they're stealing to support their habit, too.

What a loser, he's basically saying that he violates copyrights and its cool and even condones it, except when its done by someone else.

I agree that this is pretty shady. If it was just samples, then I'd say it's not different enough from the Amen break situation, but we're talking whole songs, it seems. lame.

yea that's pretty fucking lame for a mainstream artist to steal from the indie guys. c'mon now.

otoh, underground artists sampling off mainstream acts

Yeah, I heard about this before... really lame. I bumped into Covox after his performance at 2006's Blip Festival in NYC (the largest chiptunes festival in the world), and he was a really cool guy, he doesn't deserve something like this.

Covox

You people listen to such ~~homoerotic~~ eclectic music. If you like it that's cool.

Electronic music however does make good thumping beats, if you catch my drift.

I got plenty of electronic music at my place, if you like the thumping beats

I like Crystal Castles. The only reason I even know about them is because there was a huge thread about them stealing parts of songs from other artists on SomethingAwful.

EDIT: This Covox guy looks like a huge taco.
