I wholeheartedly agree with what Morgan said about taking something important to you and turning it into something that is of momentary trendy value.
They aren't the only ones who spent their formative years with precursor to this style of music and to see it be "fashionable" to the point of disposability is rather disheartening. I haven't had the opportunity to listen to Metro Area, but I think i'm going to make a point to find out what's up with them thanks for the article repost!
