New single from the band that brought us the small active rock hit "Stillwater". The irony of this song is that the lyrics are criticizing bands for selling out, but the music on this song sounds way more SELLOUT-Y than "Stillwater" by A LOT! They're selling out to corporate tough guy rock radio with hooks, only this is poorly done, and doesn't have either the uniqueness to criticize other bands for becoming a 'freak show' sellout, and doesn't have the interest that "Stillwater" did. I'm hoping this band doesn't go down the shitter, because they had some interesting songs on their last record.
It did get 6 adds this week at active rock radio, so their decision to do exactly what the song is criticizing may help them get the success. Or maybe the song was intentionally autobiographical...I doubt it.
