A nice short video that explains the basics in a way that even a 5 year old child could comprehend.

Shhh...you weren't supposed to know about that. You'll have to either become one of us or die!

BTW: You capitalized the "h" in he. Do you regard XDelusion as holy?

Yes. holy as in set apart from US.

In a way I'll kinda miss his unintentional humour.

Oh no, walmart stifles artistic expression? Please. Like bongzilla or pig destroyer are going to sell albums there anyway.

I think XDelusion has confused "comprehension" with "rejection"

I'm not sure what your question implies; she went on about what she meant by that pretty clearly, really.

She did. However, "artists" they are not IMO if they worry so much about their bottom line (30% of sales I believe she said) that they lower themselves to walmart standards and pre-censor their material.

The people in charge of the record label to which the artists are contracted (as well as the other people and companies who make money off their music, such as manufacturers and distributers) certainly worry. And I'm not sure the artist has the final say in matters regarding censorship (i.e. "Either you change this cover design/this song/etc., or we're not publishing it at all").

Assuming artistsic credibility is their goal, that's when you find a different label to produce under.

[Kristian Ronge]

It's probably difficult being artistically credible if that means being shunned by the major record labels and going (back?) to underground/non-mainstream (with less revenues, less exposure, etc.). But yeah, technically, you're right.
