If you don't like it, nobody wants to hear you crying about how you forgot your name. Go somewhere else. If you were offended by what I said about "indie street cred", then that's good. You SHOULD feel offended thinking about how a band should stay low just because you said so. ---By the way, what is "you are still I bigger moron." What you said doesn't make any sense. It's not like I posted here before or something, nor did I mention the words "David Frost" in the post. I'd really like to know. Or maybe you said that you are the moron? I'm not sure. D1gitaln3xus |

I agree with everything that DigitalNexus said. Like bands for what they create, not for what record label logo is on the sleeve of the cd. |

first off, the only reason that thrice was saying they sold out was because for years they preached about staying true to their music and not signing on with a bigger label for more money, that they were just in it for the music, yada, yada, yada, which is great. then they went and signed with a bigger label. which is also good, they've got more exposure, better means to reach the public with their music, which is all great, what band wouldn't want it? He's just saying that they acted slightly hypocritical after signing with a big label. Having said that, I think the bottom line is not which label they're playing under, how much they're getting, where they're appearing, the bottom line is that they're still making the music that THEY want to make, and not allowing themselves to become yet another packaged marketing ploy masquerading as an indie band to make more money. So long as they steer clear of that, they're still a great band, and they still have their integrety more or less in tact.
