Godsmack是一支深受Alice In Chains影响的乐队，乐队的名字来自AIC的一首歌名、乐队的logo也和AIC的logo惊人的相似，至于主场的演唱风格自然也就不用多说。但对于伟大的Alice In Chains，其音乐中的愁苦、绝望与无助氛围又怎么是简简单单的模仿复制就可以再现的？
这首Godsmack的”Keep Away”算是其代表作，在不与Alice In Chains进行比较的情况下，听上去还是可以的，有那么一点邪恶的感觉，而且‘噪’的程度也很适合出现在演唱现场中。
以下是国外网友对Alice In Chains和Godsmack的比较：
Well, Alice in Chains was relentlessly dark, despairing and hopelessly beautiful, with strange vocal harmonies that were simultaneously gorgeous and disturbing, and brilliant lyrics which focused mainly on the horrors of drug abuse.
Godsmack is a sickeningly generic Alice in Chains copycat band, whose songs and melodies are unoriginal, and whose lyrics are just idiotic.
