speaking of sell-outs...i consider Staind a sell-out. Their music has changed
ever sinvce Dysfuntion. Dysfuntion was such a harder album more like hard
rock. Stanid has gone from being hard..to this slow shit. they are now an
alternative rock band. any so-called hard rock band that has their song
played on STAR 104 along with such gay bands like N'Sync deserve to be
hated.
Staind was good, and they cared about their music...now their just out to
get teeny bopper radio listeners off the air waves. Whatever Staind..do ur
thing.

How is Staind out to get teeny bopper radio listeners??? I have the Staind
album, I've heard they're previous album, plus I have albums by "gay bands"
such as Nsync. I, in no way see any resemblance in musical styles. Nsync
makes music for people to dance too, not music that makes them think. There
is no feeling in Nsync's music, yet Staind makes music that I couldn't
imagine doing any choreographed dance too. It's music that inspires, and
makes you feel. Just because their musical style has evolved doesn't mean
they are selling out. As bands mature, so does their music, if they made the
same shit over and over again, it would be boring. But hey I don't know maybe
you like that sort of thing. So tell me Mike, how is Staind even in the same
category as Nsync? Just because they're played on the same radio station? If
that's what you think then you really should start thinking for yourself
instead of letting radio stations tell you how music should be classified.
