Yeah they definitely have similarities. I'm sure based on the style of music, they're inspired by LZ and other bands of that era.

Here's a cool, heavy rockin' tune from Alice Cooper back in 2000 that slid under my radar at the time: Sanctuary from the Brutal Planet album.

I watched the original and best Predator film (1987) again over the weekend and decided to go look up Little Richard's Long Tall Sally... just what every "goddamned sexual tyrannosaurus" needs :lol:

A classic kick-ass, sci-fi, action movie of the 80s. Hell yeah, great movie, great song.

Pretty sure this is a rejected Bond Theme for No Time to Die, but I dig it.
