I didn't want to be told what to do. I don't want to water down my music to fit into their formats. I know what rock and roll is to me, but everything's turning into one big commercial.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I really hate it when I see other bands selling their music to commercials.
I wasn't really writing with anything commercial in mind I just wanted to create some new music.
I'm very hands on with my music - I do all the artwork and everything myself - and the songs I write aren't necessarily the most commercial.
I just want to get my music out and make sure that it's heard in the right way.
Commercial music, for the most part, is popular music and you always have to keep that in mind.
I don't feel I'm making a conscious effort to go more commercial.
Nobody wants to listen to rock and roll anymore.
I am not a pop musician; I don't want to play bubble-gummy pop stuff.
I seriously hate pop music and all things super-commercial.
We're not uncomfortable with it, and we've already been through enough of the music business where I'm not really worried that commercial success is going to in some way - we're already past saving, you know what I mean? It's too late for us.
