: k, I know blink was good before...actually their new stuff isn't that bad...but what about Fenix TX....they are really good....just curious what all y'all punkers out there think, considering their connection with blink, which most punkers I know dislike cuz they sold out.....
I don't really beleive in the whole selling out thing, when it comes to art. I think an artist has the right to change because it's THEIR work, after all, it's not their responsability to keep the torch of independent burning in the industry. I just dislike Blink's stuff, old AND new.
Now if I were an independent purist who put a lot of beleif into the whole selling out theory, I could call Kevin Smith a sellout. I mean, take a look at Clerks. Then at Jay and Silwent Bob Strike Back. Get what I mean?
