Remer17
03.07.11 | Sellout is a bullshit term. |

03.07.11 | The complaints are usually directed at a change it sound rather than a change in popularity. Fans get upset because a band they liked stopped making the music that made them popular and used their fanbase to launch themselves into a more commercially-viable market. I'm not saying I agree with the use of the term but it does happen that a band changes their sound and becomes more mainstream. |
Scoot
03.07.11 | Children of Bodom - Are You Dead Yet? |
05McDonaldT
03.07.11 | because a lot of bands deliberately make their sound more accessible for the purpose of gaining fans(metallica, muse, etc.) |
pizzamachine
03.07.11 | Yup. |
TheJackal
03.07.11 | tbf the exogenesis symphony is hardly more accessible |
bungy
03.07.11 | My bm band played shows in my basement in front of my cats, they were pissed when we sold out |
SloppyMilkshake
03.07.11 | I don't mind the term "sellout" if used properly.
When a band or artist comprises their sound for a more popular sound with the sole intention on attracting more fans/commercial success.
That being said...a lot of bands are unjustly called sellouts. |
CrownOfMagnets
03.07.11 | lol bungy. |
Remer17
03.07.11 | I don't really get why everyone calls Muse sellouts. Is The Resistance really more accessible than their earlier stuff? |
bungy
03.07.11 | One time I accidentally cleared my throat into a microphone, and my cat Jerry (he hates his name) was like you should do some bm. So I ate like 7 whopper jrs and started to jam. It was like a Capella since my cats can't play instruments, even though I was like if we practice so hard we get a 50/50 chance to get famous. That's when I sold out |
bungy
03.07.11 | I also know a lot about hammerhead sharks |
couldwinarabbit
03.07.11 | why do they have the hammer shaped heads? |
CrownOfMagnets
03.07.11 | Remer17, have you heard the Resistance? It's like Muse but like pop shit. |
bungy
03.07.11 | CUZ THERE IDIOTS |
CrownOfMagnets
03.07.11 | Idiots over there |
Remer17
03.07.11 | I actually am one of the few people on this site who thoroughly enjoy The Resistance. Yes, it's poppy, but Muse were already incredibly accessible before that album. Hell, they were on a Twilight soundtrack before that album. |
CrownOfMagnets
03.07.11 | I like the title track. |

bungy
03.07.11 | Captain crunch makes my mouth bleed |
LepreCon
03.07.11 | Kings of Leon most definitely anyway sold out |
