So how does a great band get great these days if no one can be bothered to listen to their music because they're not already great? I think the issue is that some people are not interested in new bands/music until someone tells them that they are great.....and are only willing to spend a few minutes of their precious time on the forum looking for threads about well known bands ....I personally come here to discover new bands and music and I have found a lot over the years...yeah it may be that I will only love 1 out of 40-50 that are mentioned but so what, the fun is in discovering these new bands ....
