Biggest sell-outs?

In that case I agree with the both of you. Its funny cause he's obviously not got a lot of faith in his fanbase if he thinks theyre so casual and uninterested that he has to give them a reason to pay for his music.
 
I'd say Nickelback and Michael Bolton are the biggest sellouts. Starting out as the very pinnacles of innovation within their given genres, they stifled their creativity for years to come just in order to stay mainstream, safe and popular.

Nickelback haven't produced an artistic, creative masterpiece since The State (2001) and I doubt they'll ever reach those heights again. As for Michael Bolton, I can at least happily say that he's transcended industry expectations in his latest offering, Bolton Swings Sinatra. This offers at least a final ray of hope, a small beacon of light on a pitch-dark horizon, that Mike will produce a final Magnum Opus to match the ecstatic, sublime heights of Soul Provider (1989). I suggest anybody should check out his collaborative effort with Bob Dylan, on that very album.
 
ledzepstu its just a thread, its not the end of the world. u dont hav to reply if you dont want to. Perhaps dont think of it as selling out just call it changing the style of their music wasnt to ur liking.
 
BanRAB have a limited shelf life, after a while they run out of ideas. Or they get older & lose their edge. I think very few banRAB actually sell out as such.
 
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.
 
:laughing:
haha his name always makes me laugh.


Sellouts?
Metallica I guess, but that should have changed hopefully now that the douche producer is gone.
Machine Head for a while, but then came back on track after they got off the Nu-metal band wagon.
Lost Prophets.
