Just thinking about it awhile ago….i know don’t hate what ticks.

then I saw this, that pretty much summed up the shite state of music industry has progressed into, so now you’ll know what I’m thinking.

 

just to make it known I do agree with a lot he says, I’ll say a lot of artists/bands and made it very obvious of their positions and how to address the problem, concentrate on a absolute banging single, push it with channels and media without the record label, really push live shows and merch to make a living.

recent band that isn’t American, British but German band would be electric callboy, let alone another ones to make a point.

im not sure other than legal fook heads and weak minded record label directors/ceos would have gained much but certainly hung themselves in the process just after they threw everyone else under the bus with the actions.

 

Anyway back to rose tinted glasses, complete Albums i absolutely loved back in the day as I’m not as old as some here so cut some slack. when they counted for tape and cds (I wasnt old enough for concerts nor roughing explicit ruling) so jive bunny was skimming the limits let alone other “mainstream” before the entertain the alternative motion.

real world were guns and roses, nine inch nails, pantera, terrorvision, linkin park, static x.

oh I’m not sure will smith would have quite counted for a whole album he flashes in the vid but the recordings were quite off and inconsistent off memory.

sometimes a poor recording can completely turn a great album to a poor listening experience, Same could be said for live experiences with arenas that the crew/equipment hasn’t done much harmonious.

one where I knew two bands, on the same arena, same day. the filler absolutely nailed the scene live with the setup and even though the recording album could be viewed was weaker, the live show made it really come to life. yet the main showing band seems to throw fat wabblers, that for me made it hard work to enjoy. 

 

two off memory is within temptation and epica last albums, great songs and live are brilliant but the recording was so quiet, dead, dull and lifeless…it was like they recorded in dead space, everything was dipped in thick cement with 20tog duvet covers over them, three sections of memory foam mattress on all flat surfaces, and all the dials on the console turned down to the point of breaking with the microphones in the next room.
if you wasn’t a fan (wife is a real fan) and know what they were actually like you’d pass them off within a 30secs of the first song as quite shit…I quite like them but it made it difficult to question why did they release it in that state? Being that bad of recording they might well of just all smoked dope, sucked helium and played the
