What indie bands do you consider douchey? I just don't get the point of leaving hateful comments on videos of people you don't like. In today's day and age, it's pretty easy to avoid any type of music you dislike. Anyone who says otherwise is lying.

I will disagree with the last 2 sentences. When a song gets big it ends up being used when news and talk shows cut to commercial. It's used in big scenes in tv shows. It's used in movie trailers. It's blasted on every 5th car radio with the volume way too high. It's being played by a group of teenagers singing along with it at the food court in the mall. It's used in every other commercial.







Three examples of songs off the top of my head that were fucking everywhere when they were on the charts. Didn't even have to go into huge offenders like NSYNC, Justin Bieber or Britney Spears.

I see what you mean, but let's face it. Artists who usually a song like that overplayed typically get the one-hit wonder treatment. The song becomes overexposed and the artist can't reclaim the same effect. No one cares about the three women you listed as examples. I doubt people today don't have alternative means to not hear music they don't like. Plus, do you hate their songs so much that you would actively search for videos of them and nasty comments about the artists and their fans? Not to judge you personally, but I find that to be a waste of time

If that's true whatsoever, these would be three really poor examples to try and use to support such a theory.

Pavement, Grizzly Bear and Deerhunter are a good start.
