No its's not that I don't want people to listen to those artists because of a movie. It's the scenekids that I'm not happy with, all they ****ing do is rip off the music scene and call it their own.

ps. If this doesn't make sense then it's probably because I've ben up 2 days straight because I can't get any sleep.
pss. You guessed it.....I'm super paranoid.

it's all good, it's just how music grows and evolves (especially now that it's moved far beyond a solely auditory medium). people have been griping about scene kids ripping things off since the 70s.

I didn't know scene kids went back that far. Hell..I bet they didn't even know.

You know what's also annoying? Kids who have no interested in anti-folk (most of who have never even heard the term anti-folk) who only know who the Moldy Peaches are because of Juno bitching about scene kids "stealing their scene" when they had no idea either. I mean for fucks sake you guys are bitching about this in the rock and metal forum it just shows you're no different.

Those are pretty bold assumptions. Are you implying our ineptitude because the hipster stereotype's so inclusive? Or because no one randomly namedropped a squadrant of lesser-hailed anti-folk bands or referenced Beck and Lach or some sh*t?
Plaguerism is plaguerism. I really liked Juno, to be honest, and I never meant to vilify it. Kimya Dawson didn't "sell out", and as I already said, I'm glad she's getting an assload of financial security.
"Flavour of the week" status sucks; this commercial's a great testament to that.
