Ghent Posted September 26, 2013 Report Share Posted September 26, 2013 crazy how this band exploded so fast. in 2010 they played the tent at Glastonbury and this year they ended that festival and headlined Lolla's Saturday (which I saw a little bit of, ginormous crowd.)Which to me proves they aren't sell outs or whatever. They got popular fast because they write good music and people like it.You don't go from nothing to one of the worlds biggest bands by selling out. First you have to make it to the top to sell out. They made it to the top, and now they're going on hiatus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Kyle_ Posted September 26, 2013 Report Share Posted September 26, 2013 What? Selling out is changing your morals or music to appeal to a wider audience. They really didn't sell out because they got big on their first album and did it on touring, radioplay, and word of mouth. Who accused them of selling out? Are you equating good music with not selling out? The whole "Hiatus" thing is basically them probably saying "We're going to go do nothing, or a do a side-project, so we can come back and create buzz for our third record". Worked for Fall Out Boy. Or one of them needs to get sober or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'Ah...Lex' Posted September 26, 2013 Report Share Posted September 26, 2013 or one of them had a burst blood vessel in the brain and they've realised there's more to life than playing bland radio pop rock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Kyle_ Posted September 26, 2013 Report Share Posted September 26, 2013 Clearly a PR ploy to get their fans sympathetic. Nah, that's reasonable. Comeback tour in 2016. I'm calling it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
