A godsmack is a lethal dose of heroin. This is the original meaning. There is also a nu-metal band named Godsmack who started as an AIC tribute band and despite the fact that there is an AIC song called God smack, they claim the name was derived from an incident of karma the lead singer Sully experienced. As an AIC influenced band who were certainly aware of this song title to claim such a thing is most likely just the best reason they could come up with to explain their band’s name in order to avoid accusations of rip-off. This karma story is the origin of the karma definition of godsmack that so many youngsters believe is the true definition. It is not. A godsmack is a lethal dose of heroin. Period. It is a noun, not a verb.
Junkie1 said to junkie2 “ hey, did you here junkie3 died last night?”
Junkie2 “Yep. He finally took that Godsmack.”

also known as Karma, when you do some stupid shit and, almost instantly, something bad happens right back to you. Gods way of keeping perfect balance.
This chick wouldn't let me use her bathroom at her house party! So, when I finally got in, I locked the door and dropped an upper decker in her toilet. Pleased with my actions, I kept the door locked and left through the bathroom window, only to fall face first into her muddy ass garden. I was thouroughly Godsmacked!

The event of being slapped so hard, that you have a brief hallucination of God himself descending from heaven with a disappointed look on his face, and saying "Boi! You really fucked up this time!" shortly before flying gracefully into the sky like a majestic eagle Sasquatch

Generally refers to a decent hard rock band, whose name was taken from the Alice in Chains song "God Smack". Often accused of being extremely derivative of Alice in Chains, but have formed their own brand of rock. Unfortunately, Godsmack has, on occasion, made songs that sound as if they have been influenced by Nickelback ("Bad Religion", "The Enemy").
Godsmack generally receives harsh criticism from those who have heard their singles, but fans understand that Godsmack can actually write good songs, although they do have a tendency to write similar-sounding songs at times.
Listen to "Re-Align", "Immune", "Vampires", or "Stress" if you want a more well-rounded perspective of Godsmack's music. Or perhaps their acoustic album, The Other Side.

"Dude, Godsmack's a complete rip-off of Alice of Chains!"
"Well, the logo and name are definitely taken from the band, and AiC certainly is one of Godsmack's influences, but there isn't really too much to link the two bands."

unoriginal nu-metal band who have made a career of ripping off Alice In Chains and writing the same song over and over, enabling them to sell multi-platinum records to the brain dead disenchanted youth of America.
Gallant: "What the hell...this Godsmack song is exactly the same as the one that just came out 2 months ago..except instead of being "Keep Away From Me" this one's called "Don't Come Close To Me"

a fag band that call their music hardcore metal but is nothing more than generic mainstream rock. every song they have written has been the same, one after the other. their lack of original guitar, drum, and bass lines is what makes them so annoying.
