Lucky bastards.
That fanbase is straight MONEY.

Also, I think you guys missed the part where that name comes from a book that came out several years ago (way before the band). The movie was based off the book. IMO, if TDWP actually tried to tie their own thoughts on materialism and consumerism into the name, they missed the mark, but I digress. I doubt any group of dudes would have ever come up with that name prior to the book coming out, despite their claims to the contrary.
they do have some strong lyrics in my opinion

Hey John, what's your name again?
The concept of fashion is the one to blame

Well, it must be difficult being so gorgeous!
Well, it must be difficult being so gorgeous
Claiming to be the kings and queens
But it's all of nothing.
This shall pass
Megalomania!

I'm going to hope for you
I'm going to pray for you
Amongst the reckless and the black
Salvation lies within.

Wow, I honestly didn't realize any CD's were selling that well anymore in this day and age! Well, anything that appeals to a market that knows how to use a computer anyway (meaning, not country)
... I wish there was a way we could travel down an alternate path and see how many copies the new TDWP would've sold in the first week had the only means of advertising been label/distro mailout flyers and stock lists in the back of metal mags like in the "good old days when everyone bought CDs!"....stop playa hatin people
congrats man it sounds very good.. how bout some details about the recording (unless i missed that thread??)
Seems like the guy was trying to make some sort of statement on vanity but couldn't keep it going for the entire song.

Some decent lines in there though, a pleasant surprise I have to admit.
yes, but then a new group of 13-17 year olds pop up, and the band keeps getting bigger![]()
Good production, congrats to Joey.
But worst band name ever and horrible music IMO.
The overtly autotuned clean vocals kill my enjoyment of the cd. If you can't sing well enough and have use that much autotune, then don't do it. Uggh.
