This review of A Day To Remember's new album raises interesting issues of authenticity, with the review arguing that the album is much better and more authentic because of the struggle the band had with the record label and a court case over it's release and contractual requirements, suggesting they are more sympathetic and ergo more authentic because of this. 

I thought this was an interesting article in relation to pop culture and how authentic things have become, especially with the introduction of new technologies such as auto-tune and music sampling and editing. The article goes deeper into these. Thus those who want to make a imprint on the industry as the article states is going to be increasingly difficult because ''even the most sincere expressions of self will have to be multiple and complicated''.
