#i suspect that this phenomenon starts with a small pool of crossover fans

You know, a phenomenon in fandom I rarely see talked about is how often fandoms just sorta adopt bands, Usually indie stuff. Tally Hall and TMA, MCYT(particularly Life SMP) and The Crane Wives, Lemon Demon and uh… a lot of fandoms, and a bunch more I don’t know. It must be really quite amusing from the artist’s perspective. Like imagine you’re just making music one day then find out that a good chunk of your audience likes watching block people on youtube go through elaborate unscripted death game drama.
