I won't rub it in any further. Bold claims brother. Bold claims. It takes considerable time to give a great album the proper attention and focus it deserves. This of course is not a statement of absolution, but it is, without a doubt, a good rule of thumb. That was just ignorant.

As an artist, I don't even understand how that's possible. If it takes you two years to write & record twelve great songs, you're not a great band. And I can't remember the last record Universal gave a good push that made me feel as good on the inside as hot Starbucks coffee. Who takes two years to work on an album, anyways?

I love his whining. An album that someone worked on for, for two years -- is that worth only pennies in royalties to the artist, when I get a new yacht? “An album that someone worked on for two years — is that worth only $9, $10, when people pay two bucks for coffee in Starbucks?”

Pervasive Globalization. NY Mag said it would give the record industry 6 months to live. NY Mag will die too. It will get sucked up in the chaotic transition.
