Trivia / Godsmack

Go To

  • Follow the Leader: While not a ripoff or anything like that, they do take a lot of their sound from bands like Alice in Chains or Metallica
  • No-Hit Wonder: One of the biggest American hard rock bands of the late 90s and early 2000s, selling over eight million albums total in their home country alone, and yet none of their songs cracked the mainstream US Top 40, with the closest being "Straight Out of Line" reaching 73. However, they did top the Mainstream Rock Charts multiple times.
  • Referenced by...: In Wicked Good, Archer hears Godsmack playing from Rory's earbuds.
  • What Could Have Been: Dark Lotus, the Psychopathic Records Horrorcore supergroup was supposed to collaborate with Godsmack, but Violent J apparently spilled the beans too soon.
  • Working Title: Sully originally wanted the title for "1000hp" to be "100,000 Horsepower", with the Title Drop following suit - but "one hundred thousand horsepower" had too many syllables for the chorus melody, so the number was lowered to "a thousand horse power", which Sully noted is "still pretty fuckin' powerful".
