 Northwestern Chronicle: Something Corporate and Yellowcard equal pop-punk ectasy
Something Corporate cleverly covered Outkast's "Hey Ya" to perfection, complete with the call and response "fellas" and "ladies" parts, and finished their set with "Punk Rock Princess" and the entire audience bouncing up and down.
Although they attract a crowd of mainly pop-punk fans, Yellowcard prefers the label "rock" and Something Corporate prefers "piano rock." All labels aside, they were compatible choices for a six week-long tour and showed their camaraderie on stage.
Though Something Corporate is a SoCal quintet, the clear frontman is singer/pianist Andrew McMahon.

 The Death of American Rock and Roll
It had barely established itself, yet rock and roll was losing its rebellious edge and drifting into the abyss, becoming nothing more then a catchphrase for corporate-sponsored teen music with a beat.
All was not lost, however, to the most die-hard-rock-and-roll fan had it was disheartening to see rock and roll fall prey to the corporate machinations and manipulated anarchy formula.
By the late fifties, rock and roll had begun to move away from the raw immediacy of its early stars and become a vehicle for the banal contrivances of camera friendly faces singing songs about teenage romance.

 Ink 19 :: Something Corporate
So, instead of slandering The Red West -- being cognizant that their presence during the hour prior to Something Corporate taking the stage wasn't entirely their fault -- I'll merely suggest that they sounded like a bad Counting Crows cover band, their sound derived from all that was bad about mid-'90s alternative rock.
There is something inexplicable that sets them apart from all the other Hot Topic-manicured, emotionally tinged, so-called punk rock bands of late.
This, of course, excludes the three dozen or so parents who were corralled in the 21 plus section, with arms full of winter jackets and newly purchased Something Corporate ephemera.

One of the most promising acts to come out from the screwy "underground" rock scene in the country, Noori ironically went all lush and mush over corporate sponsorship and the tone and style of music they chose on their debut album.
An example of a supposedly edgy rock act willfully deflating the image (presumably for the matter of smug commercial pragmatics) and gleefully replacing it with a smily likeness for a look and sound smacking of sugary corporate-pop pedophilia.
Plus....its not like Junoon has come up with original rock tunes of their own....they are a bunch of plagiarizing hybrid sufi rock pop crap band anyways....

 Your Christmas Shopping List - The year's five best indie albums. By David Samuels
The fact that he records for Dreamworks, the corporate megarock giant owned in part by David Geffen, rather than Kill Rock Stars—the Olympia, Wash.-based indie for which Smith recorded his first two incredibly influential records—is as clear a sign as any that indie labels are now the minor leagues for the big-corporate majors.
The reigning bard of passive-aggressive rock, Smith is a younger Neil Young minus the country-rock influence—the prototype for an entire generation of indie singer-songwriters, none of whom have come close to matching his gift for embittered lyrics and deceptively gentle melodies.
The most important story of the year in indie rock is that Elliott Smith didn't release a record—and when he does release one, sometime in the middle of next year, it will be on Dreamworks.

 Arena rock - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Arena rock is a loosely defined style of rock music, often also called anthem rock, and the style of music is closely associated with "corporate rock".
While many groups performed in massive venues while on tour, the term "arena rock" usually refers to 1970s and 1980s hard rock groups that occupied a middle ground between the heavy metal sound and the softer adult oriented sounds of country rock and the singer-songwriters of the decade.
Arena rock is usually medium hard rock, but lacks the edginess or rage often inherent in heavy metal.
