make a less fruity color in the background, like blue or something, then maybe some designs in there. i like the RK symbol tho, cool stuff.

I agree with the colors....you need to take one out. I don't really like the red in there, the brown and yellow reminds me of bananas. Looks good though.

there's nothing wrong with Reliant K. Anyone that thinks so may post their band of choise so I can shredd them in mid air... seriously.

secondly, if you like Reliant K that's all that matters. You don't need anyone elses approval to like or dislike a band.

thirdly, incase you don't know Reliant K falls under the catagory of CCM or Christian contemporary music. I hope this has a positive effect on your manurism on AO.

Fourthly.... stop being a puppet and just make up your own mind! Wether it be about music, art, paintball, politics, girls... stop letting morons control what you think, cause it makes you look like a moron and you're alot smart then they ever will be

fiftly.... don't take my word for it, I'm just another moron... figure this all out for yourself :headbang:

and last but not least, there are sigs that are WAY more homosexual on AO then the one with 3 guys in it, just look at ALL the sig pics in this thread so far....

Ugh...

wow. just wow. Consider my manurism on AO changed. Now that I know that "Relient" K is CCM, I have absolutely no temptation to unleash. None. Blink 182 is super cool already, but now we have whiny, pop-radio, emo crap CHRISTIAN punk music. Super.

Dont even think of putting blink 182 in the punk catagory. punk music isnt sell out like that stuff. Punk music is the ramones, sex pistols, the clash, rancid... blink 182 is sell out pop rock. Oh and also there isnt anysuch thing as christian punk rock. punk rock is basically the complete opposite of christian rock. there is nothing wrong with christian music. its just when people start trying to catagorize it with punk, metal, ... If you like reliant k thats cool with me your sig is fine

Ok... I'm not an avid fan of Blink, and I listen to most of the same stuff as Acer, i'm sure... However, the difference is he fails to keep an open mind with music.

Although Blink is pop, it is far from "sellout rock." Before you get this "holier-than-thou" attitude with your musical tastes, you need to broaden your horizons and realize that other music buffs aren't going to persecute you for listening to something popular.

related; the "underground" or "core" stuff you think only you know about, people know about. I'm big into Scandanavian metal; and hearing that Children of Bodom were playing, I instantly think "Aha! no-one will know !1~!"

Pretty big pit, nonetheless.

Ahh, true. Newer metal/screamo, like Atreyu, and the like are getting very popular around my school, by people who I would never expect to like that music. I've been a fan before they released there new album, however, it is what made them popular.

I dunno, Acer needs to just give up on listening to music, me thinks.

Squid your wrong i do have a very open mind to music. i listen to all kinds of music not just punk or metal. i am a musician so have an appriciation for most music. i won't say all because i don't like rap, country, or sell out rock and yes blink 182 is sell out. The play for money not the music. oh and squid nice little metallica refrence there with the "holier than thou". i disagree with you about music buffs. i bet most music buffs would say that blink is a sell out. So squid its not that i am not open minded. I never said that i didnt like christian, pop rock, or whatever. but i don't like blink 182 because they are sell outs. so if you want to listen to them thats fine. So if i say that i don't like blink 182, and that makes me close minded. well than i am close minded but i disagree

Ok... If you can find one bit of proof that indicates that Blink plays for money, not for music, then you show me... Oh wait, you can't, and never will. Just because an artist has reached that level of popularity and success does not mean they sold out. You are ignorant, pal.

If you were soooo open minded, you wouldn't have posted the retarded drivel you did.

Oh ya, "holier-than-thou" is an expression that's been used longer than ole' James Hetfield has even been alive, it wasn't a Metallica reference.

EDIT: Your opinion is null and void due to an extreme lack of grammatical errors.

Back in the day where they would come up with mindless and pointless songs like: Family Reunion... I Wanna _ _ _ _ A Dog in the _ _ _, Grampa, Happy Hollidays, is gone...

notice a HUGE change in between
Dumpeed, and Feeling This...

Blink is good, but they are kinda Sell Outs now... but then again, they did make money... and they now are rich. But I still think even though they might be just doing it for the money, they had a good time back in the day. So there still respectable musicians at heart. Just maybe they had to go a little bit more serious in order to maintain their carerr

I didn't say I didn't comprehend it. You told me to lick my foot, so I thought it would be wise to make fun of Relient K.

Your take on Blink is at least somewhat intelligent and more justified, even though I disagree. Thanks for not being stupid about it like Acer.

1:
Squid you obviously have no concept of what a sell out is.
2:
also you must really like blink 182 to defend them so much
3:
I am sorry squid about the Holier than thou. i thought we listened to similer music and you were trying to relate. when i mentioned that, i wasnt trying to be rude.
4:
Making Money and Being popular doesnt make you a sell out. when you change your sound and image and conform to other Pop rock bands to make money, that makes you a sell out. they were punk to start with and were good to start with, they played because they liked music. And they were doing fine, but then they started leting it go to their head. an example of a popular non sellout is ACDC they Made a ton of money, and are hugly popular. But they never changed their image or sound, they arent a sell out.
5:

6:
Sorry Echo for ruening, and junking up your thread. And thanks for realizing that blink is at least a little bit of a sell out.

It is hard these days to NOT find a sell out. Blink, Metallica, Foo Fighters, Greenday, Mega Death, Prodigy, and lots more that I feel I wouldn't be able to defend adequately in this conversation. I think that when it comes down to music these days, all that matters is that you like the music you listen too regardless of why it is being created. :headbang:

....blah blah blah...

Making Money and Being popular doesnt make you a sell out.HOLY HYPOCRISY, BATMAN!!

Does being "a huge MTV band" not simply mean you've reached some level of popularity or success? Which, in the next part of your own statement you then disagree with your stance on whether the act of becoming popular does or does not seal your fate as a "sellout." (Hint: it doesn't. It's okay to like music that other people like, too.)
when you change your sound and image and conform to other Pop rock bands to make money, that makes you a sell out. they were punk to start with and were good to start with, they played because they liked music. And they were doing fine, but then they started leting it go to their head.Are you kidding me? How in the hell can you possibly tell me with a straight face that their newest [self-titled] album is conforming to anygoddamnthing out there that's got some proven success formula? As MAMBYP already stated, I think they did a little growing up. If anything, it's turned people away. Doesn't exactly sound like the move of a sellout to me.

And stop the worthless flaming! :cuss:

evildead420
01-22-2005, 12:40 AM
actually, its the record company that markets them. mtv is part of the market, though has huge relationships with major record companys. so the "New thing" is based off of the M.R.C.(major record company), they pay MTV to play that crap. and vice versa for other promotions. :(

one more thing, dont forget about Clear Channel, there as bad as MTV :spit_take
