[QUOTE="ouchdrummer:1095072"][QUOTE="poopshit:1094846"]these days i feel like so many people are doing these hybrid punk/thrash/grind/crust/metal hybrid bands. Kevorkian's Angels had been doing it in their own way for like ten years. it's just that they were townies as opposed to all-out-scenester Allston types so they were doomed to never become popular outside of real underground circles. just think what could've become of them if they were "cool" and lived in Allston and promoted their band to hipster-metal fags and bike messengers and printed tons and tons of t-shirts and gear and and and and...[/QUOTE] I dunno. I mean, i get that what you're describing is what it takes to be cool IN Alston, but does that really matter anyways? I don't think appeasing the Alston crowd is the right way to "make something" of your band, no matter how much that crowd likes you, they'd never travel somewhere that's uncomfortable for them to see you, and once you DID start getting any notice, you wouldn't be "underground/scene" enough for them, and they'd stop liking you. That being said, i honestly think there are/have been LOTS of really good bands out there that do it for years, get no/little recognition, then break up. It's just the way it is, that's why Kevorkians A Did it the right way by just being themselves, having fun, and making music that they love. If you even begin to care about how you're perceived/how to "make it big" then you're probably gonna fail. Unfortunately even with all the drive in the world, love for your music, skills and networking you STILL need a good dose of luck. That's why you should just do your best and have a blast doing it. (that was in no way "arguing" with what someone else said, i was merely getting a thought off of my chest.)[/QUOTE]
