it seems that a lot of people in the indie scene forget where they came from. Music, even indie music, has roots that could be seen as sell-outs. It's part of getting your music heard, part of exploring and experimenting with your musical styles. You can't produce good music without reaching for some of the sell-out shit. Punk started with revolver. deal with it. Papa M is moving in a good direction with his music, even though he played with Billy. And, truthfully, Billy has a way about his music, even if it doesn't fit into the indie scene. FUCK the "scene." It's music, it's ideas, it's truth and tunes. Let it go as it should and stop being so fucking pretentious. It gets old. We all like music here . . .
