Yeah, a ska band by the name Five Iron Frenzy wrote a song that fits this ideology perfectly.A snippet: "You found them first, it made you stand apart, you know? But then everyone jumped on the same bandwagon, making you an average Joe, A lemming for the mediocre, you were just a plain old joker status quo. Blame it on the band now. If you pick them do they bleed? What's the point in playing what they want, if you won't let them succeed?"And if you like ska, here's the song: <a class="user" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TvkCMzjoh0A">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TvkCMzjoh0A</a>
Damn this is so true it hurts. It pisses me off when people think they have a better taste in music than you because of the obscurity of the bands they listen to.
If you listened to real metal, it would all be underground. Unless you mean "metal" such as The Used or Dead Poetic or some other lame emo trying to be metal. And all music follows rules, included true metal. Otherwise, no one could give anything a genre. Unless you're, you know, underground.
I do support it when "underground" bands get more notice and fame, I mean it's what they want! But I will say that it's really annoying when I've been listening to a band for years now, and then one day out of the blue my friend who once listened to mainstream pop music all of a sudden is listening to them too. They wouldn't listen to them when I first did, but now that those bands are "cool" and "in," they do... Anyone know what I mean? I mean rock and alternative music have been out there forever, and some people have followed it since they were in elementary school... and then there are some people who don't know anything about music and have been listening to pop music their whole life until recently, when "indie" music and style has become more popular, those people now listen to the music you do, but it's not like they... have any credibility, and you don't want to be grouped with them. I don't know, I guess I'm an elitist pig.

Can Morrissey still be considered underground?
