The Metal Forüm

[Suspicious]

Ah, gotcha. I was coming from the wrong interpretation and from a metal perspective. Rock's in a bit of a worse spot.

[Flubbernugget]

You have to look at the musical barriers to entry and how it relates to a return on investment. That unfortunately shows a significantly more morbid outcome for metal in the mainstream.

Though to be fair this is a bit of an issue for music as a whole

[Suspicious]

Yeah, I should further clarify more voices =/= financial success. With low attention spans and the rise of streaming, I'd argue it's harder than ever to get to the top, let alone maintain the top for more than a week.

Howling Giant just released their first full LP "The Space Between Worlds"

I'm not sure if it's as good as their 3 previous EPs - a bit poppier in the composition and production - but it's got some things to chew on.
