I don't think I was ever familiar with the term. I never really liked a band when they were "underground" and then hated them when they become popular. The way I see it, if a band becomes popular they were always destined to be popular. I usually only like a couple songs from a couple albums anyway regardless of when they were released (pre "sellout", after "sellout"). Although on one fateful album I enjoy every song, which is Sortsind's Sår. That just happens to be their only real album Ah well.

However their videos have a good amount of views on YouTube.. that's not very kvlt.
