In Responce To: Is it good for bands to participate in commercials? - Ben Brown

Is it good for bands to participate in commercials?

I really don't think its a good thing for bands to participate in any commercials which promote another product.

I'm in full agreement with Ben on this topic. This most recent X-Mas my little brother got the newest Guitar Hero, included was the newest Soundgarden CD (It was awful by the way). A prime example of a band selling out hard.

With most of my music selection I tend to stay away from main stream or anything on the radio for that matter, partly because its a majority of the bands who sold out hard and are on the top 40 list for hits.
