a word programed into the punk society mainframe. used to describe any band or skater or sumthing of that nature that got sucessfull. mainly surfaced because punks are a bunch of lazy ass holes and want them, and every one around then to stay punk and be a loser and unucessfull all their lifes. but then one day they will wake up and realizes that liking life and wanting to be a contibuting member of society is better than hanging out in their little clique and moking everyone who wants to better themselves.
punk1: dude look at that stupid conformast and his high paying job.

what you guys dont get is a band has to be good before selling out. green day, maroon 5, and all this mtv crap was never even good music. its when a band that was once good becomes crappy just to get on mtv. a band cant start as a sell out.
modest mouse can be described as a somewat sell out

to become too popular for your own good.
when most bands sell out, the portion of society that goes to any lengths to feel accepted "likes" the band to be cool. when too many of these people "like" a band, any song the band spits out will be widely accepted, therefore lowering the quality of the music in some cases.

1) Phrase used by embittered old bastards who find that a band they liked became popular, so therefore they must suck now.
2) When a band changes style and then appeal more to the mainstream than to it's original fans. Often a band did actually become crap when it once was good: e.g. Incubus, Green Day. However, many bands who 'sold out' were already shit to begin with: e.g. Good Charlotte.
