Yeah, I consider them mainstream because of popularity mainly in this factor. I don't listen to the radio so I don't even know what bands are played on there anyways. I just can't get into them at all.

fair enough. Everyone has different taste. I think maybe it's more my age, I first got into them when Show No Mercy was released and back then they were anything but mainstream. And yes they are a big name in Metal. You can find their T-shirts in the mall Hot Topic, but then again, even Korpiklaani is becoming mainstream in that way.

Yeah, I don't remember Korpiklaani's show here too well, but I do know I had to stay back because I kept being punched. I kind of see bands in a way, when it comes to shows, as the sort of crowd they drag in. I don't want to have a lineup I'm not overly into with the risk I'm going to end up having the toilet I walk into rammed into by some random kid who thinks it's funny... Which I read happened a lot in 2008 among other things.
