There aren't any indie types on Rolling Stone

If anyone around here actually qualifies as an "indie kid," itβs definitely you! Iβve seen youβyouβre out there rocking those band tees! π

What an absolute hellscape of a day on this forum. Just pure, unadulterated hating everywhere you look.

Itβs honestly pathetic how mistypanther is so blinded by rage that he doesn't even realize he's actually agreeing with Borg. Is anyone else seeing this? π
How on earth does my indifference somehow imply that I agree with anyone? Is that really how logic works now? β
I am absolutely sick of this. Between the endless ads and the useless bands, I'm losing my mind. Is anyone else actually getting fed up with this garbage?
The only thing involving music that's actually caught my attention latelyβspecifically regarding commercialsβis the fact that I would happily kick James Blunt right in the teeth. Honestly, enough already.

I couldn't care less about commercials, bands, or any of that nonsense.
The only recent musical connection involving ads is that Iβd gladly kick James Blunt to death. There. That's it.
For God's sake.

The thing is, plenty of others have already pointed out their own indifference toward this exact same topic.π

I don't get the whole thing with ads. So what if they're in one?
But hey, I'm a stinking capitalistβthe worst kind, a loan shark. π’
Itβs not about them being in an ad for me; itβs that ads are so constant and aggressive that after a while, I can't even listen to any song they use without cringing. I actually like Rebellion. If they sell out through ads meant for markets outside the US, I'll be happy. π
p.s. The absolute worst music experience is getting terrorized by a VIP billboard at a bus stop. You can choose not to watch TV, you can choose not to listen to the radio, but you can't run away from a poster on the street. I'm still traumatized.

Iβm addressing the people who actually give a damn about this. Honestly, I couldn't care less whether some band does a commercial jingle or notβit's pretty obvious from the comments. Kevin Chavez3, I know you can't stand me, but is your brain truly incapable of processing what I wrote? Do yourself a favor: shove your head back into your alternative ass and leave it there. π

Look, nobody you're talking about gives a damn whether some band lands a commercial sync or notβitβs pretty obvious from the posts... π

Exactly, which is precisely why there is a dedicated thread for this π

mistypanther Asks:
That is exactly why this thread exists. π
The individual who opened it, along with the one who followed?
After that, it was nothing but a flurry of jokes and sarcastic remarks. Have you looked a little closer? π

Iβve always found Arcade Fire a bit mediocre... they feel more like a commercial act than anything else. I suspect James Blunt could easily handle Unknown; heβs got that experience from his time working in Mexico...

After that, it was just a nonstop parade of sarcasm and snide remarks. If you actually looked closer at π
, maybe you'd see it.
Fine, I was reacting specifically to those posts where they bring up Arcade Fire and Frederick Ferdinand, right? For God's sake. Is there anything more infuriating than someone deciding to go to war with you by default, completely ignoring what you actually wrote just because you pissed them off?
I honestly can't be bothered fighting with music elitists anymore. You win. π π π
May the gods of high-brow indie bands protect you all. π π
