That's not really true. It depends how a band conducts themselves in the media and in their promotion. Being on Sony doesn't contradict what they had to say or what they stood for necessarly. Have you ever heard the saying "You have to be apart of the machine to know the mechanics of it"? Then you can truely break things down. Who do you think you're going to get your point across to if you ban major labels and play in your basement? The bigger the label the louder the voice, you could say. So perhaps that's what they were going for.
As for them reuiniting. I'm not interested. I liked their self-titled, and Evil Empire is a classic, but I lost interest after that. I think they should remain seated.
