Mudhoney was not on MTV at first and they sold tens of thouands of LP's through subpop, then a completely indie label.
and they were not very popular, but the Hipsters (like all of us on SY forum) knew about them. there is a difference.

my point is that AC has been growing by way of fantastic music... hype has been at a fever pitch with last year's live shows, as fans eagerly awaited to hear the live songs be put through the studio process, and like many predicted, they made their best album at the best possible time. they sold as many vinyl of the new album in 1 week, as their last album sold altogether. and most kids don't have record players.
