Shit Shots Count opening riff
Is a direct lift from the Sex Pistols' "Holidays in the Sun". Nice nod on the record that was supposed to be the "punk rock" album.
Re: Shit Shots Count opening riff
You are absolutely correct, it is exactly the same.

I guess we got that punk rock record after all.

I hadn't put that together but you're right.

It's about 90% similar, I guess
And I knew when I woke up Rock N Roll would be here forever

it's like a 3 chord sequence, then Cooley drops it low for the part that doesn't sound like it. It's not plagiarism

I never said it was plagiarism. If it's deliberate then I think it's a great nod. If not deliberate, then it's a cool coincidence. Just trying to say it sure sounds like the same riff to me; the way that Marry Me sounds like an Eagles' song.

I'm not hearing it. Maybe rhythmically similar but that's it.
Kick out the jams motherfuckers.

Same here

It's identical to my ears. Not a knock on Cooley, he wrote a great song that doesn't resemble Holidays in the Sun but it's the same riff.

I hear it.
It's not like the Sex Pistols were making new riffs either though. This is clearly a trashed up blues riff, which was a big part of the Sex Pistols music.
