Has anyone else notcied that Family Band sounds a bit like Wake Up by the Arcade fire?

Are there any other instances of this in the hip catalogue?
boots or hearts kind of has a 'honky tonk women' vibe

Actually I didn't notice that, and I'm still struggling to hear it.

You read that Buffalo News review too? :lol:
I always thought "Little Bones" had a striking similarity to The Cult's "Wild Flower"............very similar guitar riff
First time I heard "Trickle Down" back in 89 I assumed it must be a Stones cover.

For me, the most obvious one is "Wild Mountain Honey" sounding very Zepplenesque.

no actually, but yeah it does...

i kind of think lionized has a same type riff as pearl jam's rearviewmirror (lionized released a year prior to pj)
Boots Or Hearts reminds me a damn lot like the Pink Houses riff by Mellencamp.
"World Container" sounds a bit like R.E.M.'s "Daysleeper".

Lionized reminds me of REM's 'Near Wide Heaven'.
Cordelia always remind me of the band 'Live' around the 'Throwing Copper' era.
Heaven is a better place today always sounds like The Jam to me as well.

Heaven Is A Better Place has almost the same intro to Tom Petty's "American Girl"
I think the opening riff of "Fifty Mission Cap" sounds like any number of Motley Crue songs...

A few years ago, I actually heard the opening riff from pink houses on one the area's top AOR stations and got excited thinking they were playing "Boots".
