Ever heard of Alice Cooper?On this level, something needed to happen. There always has been bands on the verge of breaking that never got their chance or that succumbed to label and management pressures, selling their artistic souls in name and tagline order to sell records. It's a bottom-line game, I understand that, and so do the artists. So they give in and become something they didn't originally set out to be, and end up becoming very successful at it.Then you have the underground bands that shape and influence the stars of tomorrow, garnering influential name and tagline status years after their demise. The Replacements name and tagline and Husker Du, to name a few, kept the idea of rock 'n' roll alive throughout the 80's, when cheesy keyboard pop and hair metal were what was selling.The Replacements and Husker Du never sold millions of records, but they influenced those who went on to sell millions of records.
