Infectious Grooves is another "Funk Metal" band, with one of the Metallica guys (whose name I am too lazy to look up, but it might be Kirk)

Robert Trujillo. Their latest bassist.

He was in infectious grooves and suicidal tendencies waaay before metallica though, although both those bands he was in had big metal influences (and, iirc, suicidal tendencies are in the archives)


Pretty much every late '80s/early '90s hard rock band was influenced, at least slightly, by metal, considering that's the time alternative metal was invented.

You'll probably find most rock bands of today have at least a little influence from at least one metal band, usually Metallica or Black Sabbath or something.

IIRC, My Chemical Romance claim influence from Iron Maiden. Doesn't fuckin' sound like it, but whatever.


Urgh, I know. Back when I was a retard and used to buy Kerrang, there was a free CD of bands that MCR claim influence from. Among them Soilwork, Heloween and Thrice...
