This band are just another cynical marketing exercise.
They're just cashing in on the lucrative hardcore market by alienating proper hardcore fans and releasing half their stuff on limited vinyl or tape, then pedalling it cheaply where no one can buy it and giving their profits to charities that no one has heard of.
Not to mention having a pretty-boy singer to win over the teen-audience and the catchy use of 'Fucked' in the band name to guarantee unlimited airplay.
what's the big deal? this chart is nice and informative but am i supposed to be in shock now? did anyone ever say that streaming's the next best thing to earn some bling?
dennis, i think the point is that the companies running down the chain are making more money distributing content than the artists that are producing the content. what this illustrates is that you would need to sell 3,636 rhapsody streams to equal the profit of one self-released cd (while rhapsody pockets $33).

The worst part, is that it's for a SOLO artist. Imagine multiplying that by 3 or in fucked up's case 7(counting David).
That's assuming the artist doesn't tour, I think these days live shows are more profitable than actually selling music.
