The biggest sell outs I can think of are Metallica, The Clash and Feeder.

we've had this talk before. just use the search thingy and see what we think. you don't have to use the old threads to make new ones, our answers are basically the same.. and the other ones who haven't posted yet can do it in the old threads. so.. you get my point

Im not even going to get into the fact that the working definition of sell out absolves metallica from being called as such, but why the **** is the clash up there? If you want bands that only play one kid of music go listen to Limp, Nickleback and godsmack.

Have you lost it completely? I love The Clash they are one of my favourite bands but they just lost it a bit later in the 80's.

I don't listen to the sh*t you mentioned either. If you wanna know what i do listen to visit the British vs American thread.

Just because you think they "lost it a bit" doesnt make them sell outs. Wait, why the hell am I posting in here? I already know how every time a band changes slightly, theyre selling out.

Sometimes bands change for better, sometimes it does not seem right. Everybody has their own opinions.
