Bands and solo artist's we overlook .

Hello everbody ,

Today I am going to be talking about certain Bands and solo artist's in the music industry that get overlooked, during the years we have seen some great bands come and go, also solo artists , but I think it's important that we do not forget these great musicians that we have seen in our time , especially the ones we do not hear of a lot , there is a solid reason why we overlook great bands/solo's this is because there is to much cooperate music out there today and to many people are fixed on the same kind of music genre .

With so many companies pumping money into Bands/singers the likes of Nicki minaj and The wanted etc.... these underated and extremely talented groups the likes of 'The Boxer Rebellion , Stereophonics , The Cribs' get overlooked and never get that chance to shine the chance they deserve to make them more popular . So I come to a question why aren't the music companies putting more money into the underated bands ? , is it because they think there music will not stand out to a wider audience ? or is it simply the reason they do not think they are good enough ? , well you start to think why have music labels signed these bands up if they have no chance at being successful , possibly the case of filling the numbers up I say.

But we can look at this another way as well you see , if these underated bands were popular even more popular than this garbage cooperate music thats out there today , us people that like listening to bands/singers that have never been heard of we wouldn't have that chance to say 'I like listening to the boxer rebellion' and with the other person responding 'who are they' , then you think to yourself exactly 'you dont know who they are because there a great band, a band you will never understand',

So yes there is that conclusion to look at , You will also find these overlooked musicians create there own opportunities in life making there own money travelling the country , and hoping that one lucky music scout is in that bar or club watching in the shadows , It will almost become a dog fight at every gig you do , playing your best singing the best you possibly can just to get noticed just to hope that scout is there.

Then we look more to the cooperate side of music bands/singers how would they get noticed ,well these days there is only one solution isnt there really , utterly stupid music shows being broadcast on tv , The X factor , Britains got talent , The X factor USA , Americas got Talent. People who get there claim to fame by appearing on a tv show, being judged on there ability to sing , personally I find this an insult to the music industry , and the likes of Simon cowell claim it's doing the music industry a favour you have to be joking me ! , these shows are the reason we overlook shadowed bands/singers , also I must point out Simon cowell is a "CLOWN" , clearly a guy that doesn't understand music .

Well I could speak more of my mind about this issue but at the end of the day , we know who the great artist's are. I would appreciate peoples comments and opinions .
