Well over 1/2 a year after the last episode of Rockstar: Supernova, and four or five months after their actual album debuted with sales of 50,000 in one week, Rockstar Supernova have finally released their first music video... And wouldn't you know it, it's Headspin.
I watch VH1's top 20 video countdown on occassion, and believe me, it was a huge surprise to see this video at number 14 recently. Now, a lot of the music making the countdown appears to be questionable in terms of popularity (what the hell is up with the singer-songwriter stuff over the last few years?), but this one reeks of a record label's last gasp at trying to recover some costs. There is NO WAY this song is getting any real requested airplay, and my hunch is it's merely purchased airtime. An album that sells 50,000 in its debut week? I doubt it's broken even 100,000 overall, which, much like the song says, makes my head spin.

The flushing sound you are hearing is the sound of the music industry going down the commode. Sales are down 24% over last year so its no wonder why no named, no talent groups are getting on the list.
Maybe if the group released a clip on youtube of them performing a song while on stairclimbers??? (a la OKGO) that would get them some much needed reckognition.
These guys are done, they're toast, stick a fork in them.
or
Maybe if one of them went into rehab which seems like the thing to do nowadays but I doubt that would help either.
