When a band gets too much money and plays music for the money, not their original fans. The band usally also starts playing a different type of music such as pop to appeal to a larger audience. As a result they make more money.
Bands such as Good Charlotte, Fall Out Boy, Green Day, Simple Plan, and many more are sellouts.

Get the Sellout mug.When someone makes more money than the person complaining about them. this used to be a term of heavy insult in which one would feel guilty about having money but now holds no weight in the new millenium. To "be paid" or "live comfortably" and not be poor.

Get the sellout mug.A band or group that appears on MTV, VH1..etc Also, on Major radio stations that get played constantly. Their music sold at Target, Walmart, etc..Merchandise galore at Hot Topic, Walmart..etc
Good Charlotte is a great example...also, Yellowcard and Blink 182. Most sellout bands and groups have obsessive posuers.

Get the seldom mug.Bands like fall out boy are classified as uber sell outs, some people are really to dumb to understand that unless your rich and have nothing better to do, people start bands to make some money and get their music heard, just because you have a record come out on a major label, doesn't make you a sell out, but when you supposed to be say pop-punk and you do ad's for aeropostale, (like fall out boy did) that is a true sellout. Bands like avenged sevenfold and something corporate are not sellout because they are on a major label, they have good enough music to get heard.

Get the uber-sellouts mug.A teen who asks his mom for AC time and rages way too much. Has a friend who asks if he can use a light bulb. His stomach is better than any shield in the game world and can be used as transport if he rolls down a hill
