Not sure if this has been made before, I searched but I really didn't feel like going through all 41 pages. Sorry.
Anyway, ever since they made it into the mainstream radio stations, it just seems like Fall Out Boy, mainly Pete Wentz, have been just trying to get on TRL/MTV and all this publicity stuff. Now, when I listen to their music, it's just not the same. Plus, I hate Sugar We're Going Down now. Well, only time will tell. P.S. If this post doesnt make sense, I blame it on it being past midnight. |

Selling out is a very relative term. I was never fond of crap fall out boy made, even before they "sold out". Their sound was never anything that new or different, so I doubt you could call them a sellout. Also, selling out is NOT just becoming mainstream. Selling out is becoming mainstream, and changing your sound completely, so it is no longer unique, to fit with the MTV style of music, or something along those lines. Two band that have become fairly mainstream that have not sold out are Coheed & Cambria and Franz Ferdinand. They both have always had a quite unique, and good, If I may add, sound. Even after A Favor House Atlantic and Take Me Out became instant successes in the mainstream music society, their music is still very good.
