 Also did it with some boring Judas Iscariot song I never listen to.
Pretty much every slam band rips off Devourment every now and then. I don't mind |

Children of Bodom ripped off a shit load of people.

Quote:
The intro of "Deadnight Warrior" is taken from the movie "It" and the intro speech for "The Nail" is taken from the movie "Ben-Hur". The opening riff for "Red Light in My Eyes, Part 2" is from Mozart's Symphony No. 25 and later there's a riff from his Requiem K.626: 'Confutatis'; the intro to Red Light in My Eyes, Part I is from Bach's Two Part Invention No. 13.
At the end of "Touch Like Angel of Death" there is silence, followed a hidden keyboard session (01:19) often refered to as 'Coda', played by Alexi and Alexander (both one hand of the keyboard). Originally, this melody is from Miami Vice.

The intro speech for "Warheart" is taken from Milos Forman's "Amadeus". The film is about the life of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and the intro is spoken by Salieri.
The album also includes some Mozart music: Piano Concerto N�20 K.466 appears in "Black Widow" and the "Queen Of The Night Aria" from "The Magic Flute" appears in "Hatebreeder".
The keyboard intro of "Black Widow" is a theme from the TV series "Miami Vice".

Necrophagist ripped off some classical music as well.
Beethoven's Für Elise can be heard at 2:17 and 2:43 of "The Stillborn One," and the outro to "Only Ash Remains" is from Prokofiev's "Romeo and Juliet, Suite No. 2 - Montagues and Capulets."
I'm kind of surprised that bit of info isn't in the metal-archives already, so I submitted it. |

Everyone rips off classical music.
Zeppelin ripped off a bunch of blues guys...
BTW, using quotes is different from stealing riffs...
Kataklysm apparently stole a riff from Machine Head on Angels weeping (The Dark) from In The Arms of Devastation.

I think they were given permission to use that riff. |

Oh yeah, they're both good songs. Personally, I enjoy listening to Sonic Firestorm the best (when I'm in the mood for Dragonforce; I really don't listen to them all that much anymore).
Damn, I don't think I have the Valley edition with the bonus track. I'm gonna have to get that.

Bands borrowing riffs is nothing new... most of the time, it's not even intentional, it's all subconscious anyway.
I think an Emperor song on either Anthems or Equilibrium XI rips off a Mayhem riff. Although I think they credit Mayhem in the songwriting credits...
I dunno how many bands I've heard that have ripped off the tritone from Black Sabbath.
Although it doesn't really bother me. I like hearing all these different takes or implementations of the same riff. It's fun to compare music like that, IMO.

The first riff to "Ye Entrancemperium" was written by Euronymous. I'm not sure if it was ever used in a Mayhem song, but due credit was given in the Anthems notes. |
