The only time they really experimented was on OHM, I think probably because Dave Navarro was on gits at the time.
I remember I sent some of one of Gary Cherone's later bands to someone, and he dismissed them as ripping off RCHP. Which is funny, because it was Cherone's sound since before Extreme in 1984, dating as far back as 1980.

So really, who was ripping off who?

(The answer is probably no-one. Just a musing I had when you mentioned Funk).

Dani California makes me want to kill something, by the way. And are they using the same progression as Papa Roach's "Last Resort?"
