On selling out

Every time an established act brings out a new album, part of their fandom cries out ‘They’ve sold out!’

It invariably means the band’s music has evolved and those fans haven’t. The music is simply no longer to their taste.

Perhaps the real ‘sell out’ occurs when the world evolves and the band does not change with it.
