Flattery, Robbery, or Just Overly Paranoid?

Is anybody out there a fan of Coq Roq? That's Burger King's new heavy metal band that's trying to entice you to eat the fast-food icon's new chicken fingers (or "chicken fries," as the new, now name goes). If you haven't had a chance to catch up with the new commercial campaign, take a look, but I warn you--you'll need a more recent version of Flash than I've got.

Slipknot has apparently seen the commercials, and they're not pleased. According to The Smoking Gun, the band is charging Burger King with stealing its image, persona, and style. Slipknot claims that Burger King approached them last year to appear in a different campaign and that they turned the chain down. Burger King's taking the charge seriously and has filed a countersuit before Slipknot's suit even got off the ground. I don't especially follow Slipknot, so maybe someone can tell me how close Coq Roq actually comes to the originals.
