Anonymous They are sold out, that is one thing everyone can agree on. - Wed, 29 Jan 2003 6:02pm
Anonymous bands shouldn't have to care about the people who listen to the music. I honestly beleive that the hot hot heat like the music they play. shut the fuck up. selling out doesn't mean changing your style to a style you like as well. Selling out is selling your songs to pepsi! - Wed, 29 Jan 2003 6:18pm

blah, blah, blah, they aint a bunch of political punk rockers. They can make as much money off of their music as they want, and they arent selling out at all. People are so fucked, just be happy for the guys and give them a fucking break. Oh and maybe ask them to pay for the shooters next time. - Wed, 29 Jan 2003 6:29pm

No shit, selling out means doing something you don't wanna do for money. These dudes have been playing pop rock since they started, I know. I went to all the first shows years back. Learn to debate properly or fuck right the fuck off bitch. - Wed, 29 Jan 2003 6:44pm

Hey all of us old guys grew up loving Iggy Pop and a whole bunch of other bands just like that. Is some of their stuff really that much different? Nope I dont think so, they just aint ground breaking punk rockers so you all cant say it's cool. - Wed, 29 Jan 2003 9:30pm
Leeroy stagger o.k i tried to stay outta this one, but to the fruitcake who mentioned brit pop and hhh in the same sentence needs to be smacked, I hear no brit pop in there music at all, as for them selling out the shows in the states, if any of you clowns putting them down knew how rad that would be to have 800-1000 people screaming for your band every night and getting all the free Beer and etc etc not to mention playing music for a living, well fuck me , where do i sign..
Love Leeroy - Wed, 29 Jan 2003 10:25pm
Anonymous Then you haven't heard much britpop, so shut the fuck up, pansy. There are more than a couple of n.american bands coming out with a very retro british style and sensibility. That's ok, it passed through the uk pretty fast. - Wed, 29 Jan 2003 10:44pm

I hate Hot Hot Heat's music, but selling records does not mean selling out. Iggy Pop should be mentioned on every thread on the message board. The man rolled in glass! - Thu, 30 Jan 2003 1:44am

If you were really, really good at a point in time and then you went really, really bad just for money (Metallica), I would gladly say sold out. If you start a band, or join a band to make a profit and to be a rockstar, that's just buying in. - Thu, 30 Jan 2003 1:48am

actually that britpop as you call it sound, really started in the states in the late sixties and only later on did the brits get ahold of it. Get your useless rock trivia right at least. - Thu, 30 Jan 2003 4:43am

Hot Hot Heat weren't lucky, they were already signed to SubPop and released 2 EPs before the Bandages CD came out, they just marketed themselves right, amazing SubPop even survives to this day, thanks in no part to Nirvana :) It makes me laugh, local band does well and everyone thinks they sold out (hey I am to blame for this myself, so... :). - Thu, 30 Jan 2003 5:14am
k.g. didn't anyone tell you fucking internet geeks that hating on the heat is so 2k1? total irrelevancy, man ... go make yourself pancakes or climb a tree or something. if you must dis, at least whine about someething current, like the organ signing to nickelback's label. - Thu, 30 Jan 2003 1:57pm

Am I the only one who cringes everytime I hear or read about that three chord, over rated, nickelback band? fuck that Chad Kruger (i think thats his name) is an ugly bastard. - Thu, 30 Jan 2003 2:04pm
Anonymous 'actually that britpop as you call it sound, really started in the states'

I'm not gonna start arguing about rock trivia...there is a sound and style that was big in england during the '90's (I know, I lived there) that has now made its way here. - Thu, 30 Jan 2003 4:52pm

Yup it was big in britian in the nineties, but it was a sound that started in the states and the brits were the ones that actually stole it. Then when they made the retro sound popular again it came back over this way. - Thu, 30 Jan 2003 6:17pm

I'm not a Nickelback fan at all but is it right to dis them by saying they're a three chord band? There's this band that was from New York that all dressed the same... they were great and only played three chords. I think they're dead now though... can't remember the name. Ha ha ha. - Tue, 4 Feb 2003 4:48pm

It's not always about how technical you are. If you can write a two chord song that people want to hear then you make a million dollars. Technical doesnt always equal good, it's all about making good music and the two dont necessarily go hand in hand. - Tue, 4 Feb 2003 6:48pm
