lol @ when crappy bands get slammed on messageboards and pass it off as publicity.

I've been thinking about this lately. It's a tactic I'm gonna call "saturation and insistence". Rather than actually be a good band and get yourself known gradually, unworthy and impatient idiots like to take these steps to the top:

1) Saturate the market with your band's name, I mean really get it out everywhere you can. Don't stop talking about it ever. Turn any conversation towards your band.
2) Insist that what you are doing is right. Take no responsibility, take no criticism, just keep turning the subject of any conversation towards your band. Put more effort into promoting it than writing it.

This doesn't usually get bands where they want to end up, but they do get their 15 minutes of fame. It's almost like a universal moron code, yet none of them seem to realize they're following a formula they didn't even invent to get their "success".
