Annoying?

There was some consternation among the mp3 bloggerati about Daft Punk’s P-Diddyesque sampling of Release the Beast to create their (or “their”) song Robot Rock. But no one seemed to comment on the other plagiarism from Human After All: Technologic sounds almost exactly like the Butthole Surfers’ Annoying Song, with the guitars removed and the synth from Ginuwine’s Pony added. Although I don’t think Daft Punk’s is supposed to be annoying (who really knows, with robots, though), it is. Both of them are nonetheless catchy.
