I like underground bands but a great deal of metal bands are mainstream.
Yes but at one time these bands were'nt so mainstream. They were underground and only known by the true metalheads. Remember how bands start off, demos, small gigs etc. Then a big label discovers them because they are the next big thing and then everyone knows who they are. Then they have a song in the top 40, they're in a trendy magazine, then they are labelled sellouts by the "apparent" purists. If Cradle of filth are going to a bigger label, then good for them. Why should they stay poor and underground? To me their music has always been good. the first album i ever heard of theirs was "The principles of evil made flesh" when it was originally released.

System of a Down aren't bad at all. Sometimes Aerosmith, or Within Temptation too. There's nothing wrong with being mainsteam though, as long as you don't lose focus of what you're doing. Sort of like if you become president
