Believe it or not, most bands tend to consist of:
a) A guy or girl singer. having animals, plants, inanimate objects tend not to be as effective as singers
b) one or even two guitarists and a bassist
c) somebody on the pots and pans.

new bands usually sound the same as each other if you are thinking along the mainstream rock genre. this is because the powers above try tapping into what 'kids are listening to nowadays' and they want their money.
