Sinister: When Band psychology is misunderstood

Hi,
B&S are not selling out,  but there is a bit of
songwriting and band psych 101 involved here.  
El Zober, did not get why i can understand why B&S
seem to be a little weird, and I can say it is
perfectly natural, and i can understand why thier new
stuff may not be as good, or completely differant from
thier old stuff.
IT IS NOT SELLING OUT.
I have alot of freinds who are in bands, some bands
that hit it big, some bands that are still struggling,
and some bands that well can be huge, but just never
get over thier own personality.
But all good bands have the band psychology effect, a
sort of constant questioning and struggle to write
good songs.  
It happens to anybody who is a muscian, maybe B&S is
in a downcycle, and hopefully they get some grand self
realization where they produce another really damn
good album.  Well if they are around that long, but
niether jeepster or matador is going to drop them, so
the only way they are going to break up is well
personal disputes....so they will probably go through
a cycle where they will produce a bunch of good stuff.
 It happens to every band...
So hang in thier folks, plus even the not so good B&S
stuff is probably really good.  
Plus this selling out question is silly since B&S had
thier chance and turned it down.
