    Notice alot of the heavy metal bands suck as KoRn and limp bizkit used to be good bands until they became complete sell outs and just tryin to make money . Today in HMV i saw AlL mIxEd Up - KoRn this album is just old songs remixed , also KoRn used to be a class band until issues came out and limp bizkit are just using the words "fúck" and "Shít" to get to all these sad cúnts who think that those words are cool and that this band must be cool frown.gif

    If you want to hear the ultimate band that have never and will never sell out to anyone or anything then listen to Fugazi.

    They're on their own label, they lug their own equipment around, they don't sell ****e merchandise and they are really really good.

    I haven't seen a thread worth adding to in months.
    I really didn't think many people here would know Fugazi, pretty strange that i had Arpeggiator playing while reading this hehe.
    Fugazi sure are one helluva band.

    that song "Waiting Room" is really cool.

    Levellers WERE great..... spent many college days listening to their stuff, but what went wrong?

    despite what everyone says, oasis are still one of the top bands around. i can't see them ever selling out, not after coming so far.

    hmmmmmmmmmm

    Noel - lets make an album lads
    Lads - OK
    Noel - OK lads - the last album went well, quality stuff there. Let's release one just like it.
    Lads - OK
    Noel - Right - it's worked so far lads - lets release another album that's the same as the last
    Lads - OK
    Noel - Lets release all our B sides and sell them more of the same
    Lads - OK
    Noel - Right lads - once more for fun.
    Lads - OK

    See a pattern?

    Anyway - I hate it when bands do this. This is not quite selling out, it's exploitation of stupidity of kids who listen to this sort of music. Incidently, I loved Oasis' first album (and still listen to it).



    All the best!

    Yes - I do agree Kolodny - somthing did go wrong.I think they have either changed they're taste in Music or have just turned to the poppy sh*t that is they're new album -to make money.
    Exodus was a class song.

    Wtf are ye on about NM, Korn have in no way sold them selves out! admittedly Issues isin't there best album but how does that make em sell outs?!?! oh and btw lots of people remix their old music, that is in no way selling themselves out. Where as if u want an example of total selling out look no further than the biggest bunch of ****ers ever, Limp Bizkit!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,682 ✭✭✭chernobyl


    why does everyone get so ****ed off when a band is accused of being sell outs.
    selling out is not a bad thing for the band..just the die hard fans.
    Issues was cool, a pure rock album but i still like "Korn" the best especially Clown.
