When someone says 'Fall Out Boy' sold out what they actually mean is 'Two years ago they were my favourite band and now I realise how shit they really are & now I have to say something to save face , so if I say they sold out it means I can get away with liking their early stuff , even though that stuff is just as bad as what they are doing now'.

You can look it up in the dictionary under 'Green Day effect , The'
