..and categorize them.. whether they sold-out/fell off or both |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
examples for the "both" category: tricky, RZA (or should I say Bobby) sell-out: photek fell off: roni size there are many more |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
sell-out: Slipknot fell off: Vision of Disorder |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The Prodigy - boy, they really blew with Fat Of The Land. I remember the good 'ol days when i was the only kid in my neighbourhood who listened to Prodigy..... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and to top it all: both fell out and sell-out: Korn |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
sell-out: aphex twin I love roni size's 2002 Child of the West with Cypress Hill. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
btw, that was an example of both. |
||||||||
|
|

I'm thinking aphex is on his way.. we'll see w/ smojphace.. he hasn't yet though marlowe what did slipknot do to sell out? isnt their whole thing a gimmick to begin with? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, you can't sell out if you NEVER had integrity. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that's normally the argument against people accusing people LIke Moby of selling out. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
sell out - aphex what is he doing? hes been standing still for the past few years.. fall off - underworld. i still love them, but their splitting up was a tragedy |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well, moby is just weak. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
johnny: you didnt like "two months off"? good track, cant speak for the rest of the album. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I was referring to Aphex Twin allowing his sonic creations to advertise corporations, not the quality of his sonic creations. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
id let someone use one of my songs... if i liked the product or organization. he also let the special olympics use "goon gumpas" for their charity's commercial. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i love two months off to bits also the songs little speaker and twist the rest of the album worried me tho :/ plus im one of those people that misses the original vocalist.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah... i havent even heard the new massive attack, and i know everyone is singing it's praises, but... dude... 2 out of 3 people are now gone. how "massive attack-ish" can it be. plus sinead o'connor is on it. yuck. |

sell-outs: the manic street preachers |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The thing to note about Aphex Twin is that while he is a sell-out, he's completely shameless about it, which I fully respect. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
why? By flaunting it, he's hoping to be respected and somehow seen as post-modern ironic -- it's a gimmick, don't be fooled. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I don't like the term sell-out, cause it's not for me to say... someone isn't a sell-out just because they make a commercial album, nor are they one if they set out to try and be more commercial... it's all in the intentions to make money and all that I think... and well, I just don't know peoples intentions... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I would answer, but I haven't got a fucking clue what 'post-modern ironic' means ;) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Quite true, but I believe that he really doesn't care at all what people think and that he is probably also quite apolitical. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
neither of which excuse his actions I would say. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what, you cant try to make a living from music? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
there's only one true sell-out: -metallica I mean these guys made millions of dollars thanks to solid music and underground fanbase, and they stil reckoned it wasn't enough so they popped the charts and sued napster because they claimed lost income. I mea really, can I have a bucket to puke in plz? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
fell off of my taste would be aphex twin. that drill n bass stuff really don't bother me |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
but how do you know they did all that just to make more money? You can't expect a band like them to make hardcore metal forever... what's his name, James Hetfield recently had a kid, I saw him in an interview, so you have to think that's going to change the type of music you want to make... plus, they're older and more mature... as you said, they were the best selling metal band before they even reached the charts... so, it's not like they felt the need to reach the charts to make more money... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
classic fall off: Cypress Hill i'm inclined to call Metallica sell-outs, although they still have some good songs here and there. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Prodigy,. for both selling out and falling out |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if aphex is a sell-out, great times are about to come!!! looking forward to that :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
snoop doggy dogg, obviously.. after his doggystyle album, which is fucking brilliant and always will be, he spat out albums like knocked out teeth. fucking sad shit. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
does it bother anyone else that aphex's new album is being described as "ragga techno"? is he now trying to appeal to the (shudder) sean paul audience? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that's what I'm talking about!! all reports of from those who have heard his new material say it's more accessable.. and judging from the 26 mixes new tracks (the 'original mix' is a bit of a misnomer) it sounds like his shit is real basic now.. dance-floor friendly |
||||||||

fell off: placebo (quite a long time ago) |

Do you not like direct music? forget 'dance' music, music that you like straight away not pseudo intilectual crap. REAL Techno, REAL hip hop, Real Rock. When you play live do you want to fuck people off? |

fell off and sold out: live tricky moby dmx i'm not saying the above were really great to begin with (maybe tricky) but generally i'm pretty patient with artists when they release an album i don't like. nin put out "deep" which was horrendous but then he saved himself with the still ep. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
radiohead will sell out soon. aphex sold out a while ago but really, who gives a shit? hes aphex twin, he can do that. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and its not like aphex really sold out, he isn't publicly well known. just technically sold out. if he actually became popular the world would explode. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
aphex hasn't sold out ... yet. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes he has |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
he doesn't need to, but he will probably just to piss us all off. |
