Basically, they are not playing to packed out stadiums, instead, they are working on their music alongside working other jobs sometimes. They are working hard, and they are all about the music.

This still does not get across the clear message that I want. But it might help you better understand. I know that there are still some generalizations in that though.

OH NO!!!! not another job

for making some homegrown piece of sounds-like-that-other-band-that's-almost-big-but-not-really-so-it's-still-ok-to-sound-like-them band? it's great on a local level. it's what gives a spot culture and a bit of a sense of identity but there's usually a good reason why it doesn't go past that level and it's not because of the big bad 'man'. sorry. life isn't fair.
