If you think Kevorkian's Angels or any of those bands are only supported by the 4 or 5 people who dig them on this site then you are a moron. There are quite a few people who support underground music that dont post on message boards. I don't really understand why you work for a site called the Underground Scene since you have not once mentioned any underground bands you actually do like.

1. Where did I say they were supported by four or five people? Show me where I said it. Thank you dipshit, I didn't, and that wasn't the point. It's called generalizing, and I know that's a moderately big word, but I have confidence you can figure out what it means without a dictionary.

2. I did not name my site, but you know what? It's a fucking name, and whether you are smart enough to realize it or not, most of the bands we've covered weren't (and in almost every case still aren't) mainstream at the time we covered them. What am I supposed to do, turn my back on the bands I like because a couple other people like them now too? Fuck that shit. I don't believe there is an underground scene anymore. I don't consider your bands or your shows underground. You do plenty of advertising and lots of people go. Your bands (I am assuming) have websites and there are ways of spreading your music all over the internet. That's not underground.

You know what else though? Selling 100,000 CD's doesn't make you mainstream. Being on Headbanger's Ball, big fucking whoop, any band on your label could probably get a video on there if they felt like it. Who cares. I can still walk up to anyone on the street and 19 out of 20 are going to say "Shadow who? Killswitch what? Atreyu, isn't that the kid from that movie?" I see plenty of your supposive "underground" bands all over webzines and regular magazines. If I could change the name of my site I would, because even I think it's stupid, but it's not up to me and I could honestly give a fuck. So try again.
