SPOILERSPOILER_SHOWI guess the issue is that good art comes from a place of authenticity, and in our-scene-in-air-quotes-because-hahaha-no-way-do-I-consider-myself-as-having-anything-to-do-with-some-guy-that-owns-several-Infest-shirts, the expression of anger/ferocity plus corporations seems incongruent
And I can generally see where this is coming from and generally agree with it; a lot of the problems of the world are symptomatic of multinationals and their impact on politics and economics, and importantly the societies that always bear the load of such corporatist structures
That said, I think it's a bit conclusory to say that corporate involvement instantly undermines the authenticity of the artist; I cannot imagine a situation wherein Masami Akita's performance at a fest run by a car company somehow compromises his environmental views, and it's really baseless to claim as much
Really all I'm saying is that you gotta laugh at rigidity in a group that so vociferously opposes rigidity in most other situations

I know of at least one DIY grind band who were requested to provide a mix without vocals for consideration for use in a Scion commercial, so it is just a matter of time.delmuerte wrote:jingles

There is barely a difference. Crush the Christian Prophet? That's cool. Crush the Jewish Prophet? Not cool.altars of radness wrote:You seriously don't understand the difference?canon.docre wrote:I know a band that got kicked off a Scion label showcase festival because they covered (not even recorded, just live, and years ago) Crush the Jewish Prophet by Inquisition.

Dude, what world do you live in where a company not actively trying to get boycotted can be associated with someone who at one time or another put "crush" and "Jewish" in the same sentence? It's not fair, but it's pretty easy to take for granted.canon.docre wrote:There is barely a difference. Crush the Christian Prophet? That's cool. Crush the Jewish Prophet?
