You can have all the talent in the world but if it's not heard by enough people then you can fall by the wayside.

Some metal bands could be classed as having less talent than other musicians yet even after 30 years they can pull crowds in their thousands due to their hard work and enthusiasm whilst more talented bands fade away.

I have heard many talented musicians and bands that don't receive decent exposure whilst other bands with average musicians garner much more success. Voivod are one of the most talented, unusual and innovative metal bands on the planet yet most of the kids these days are far more interested in bigging up bands such as Between The Buried And Me as the most innovative Metal band around.
