Yeah, boo to no physical albums. I don't even have an iPod yet. Probably the only person left on the planet without one, but still... And even if it's true that people under 24 just buy songs, is that really SPs target audience? I can see why they would want it to be, but seems to me that most who bough the last album is at least pushing 30. You just have to go to a show to figure that out. And as far as I know, people my age still like physical albums. And buy alot of them.

Ugh, they keep trying to appeal to a mainstream audience that doesn't give a fuck anymore.

Uhm, I take back what I said about not having an iPod, I just went out to an early birthday dinner with my best friend (I turn 29 on Sunday) and he had bought me an iPod for my birthday AND downloaded 336 Billy-songs for me.
![]() I'm very happy now. Cheers! But still, booo to no physical albums. |

So we shouldn't rule out the possibility...
Of course it's better than nothing at all. I doubt anybody questions that. |

this is the most important thing. as long as we get new songs fasters - great. and like i said before it's not like this idea won't fizzle out eventually (what hasn't?). i don't get ppl choking on their tongues like it's the death of SP albums sheesh.

I think one problem with the Billy's thinking for the last year or two is that he's been catering to the myspace crowd rather than the hardcore fans that he claims to love. The literal MySpace tribute album/promotion is a great example, not to mention the style of Zeitgeist, the limp political references, and his odd relationships with 20-something myspace women, from Linda Strawberry to that porno chick to that photographer to Ginger Reyes.
I'm very encouraged by JC saying this new stuff will be "grander". I think that's exactly the problem with Zeitgeist - it's "big" but its not "grand". SD, MCIS, and Adore were all "grand" albums, but Zeitgeist was just a rock marathon. I really like Zeitgeist but it's clearly not on the same level and doesn't even want to be. |

If this were Radiohead, everybody would be cumming feverishly. Instead it's: Billy wants money, the music will suck, he hates his fans, and his ego is hurt.

that is a ridiculous comparison. i agree that its not fair to jump to conclusions about billy, but people dont blindly follow radiohead's recording decisions, its just that they make really good decisions. if radiohead said from now on they were going to release songs individually or in packages people would be upset, their last format worked perfectly for the fans and for the band, why would they change it?

some consistency in comments on the future by the band would be welcome.
the 8-10 touring personnel sounds highly unlikely. material released via itunes would blow. |

alright people. read this again please:

so WHY are all of you bitching and moaning as if he DID say these things? You're all fucking crazy, that's what you are. He said it won't be a record in the traditional sense, and that songs would be released individually, or as little blocks (like american gothic, i assume, which had a hard copy for those of you who don't want to download mp3s). Why don't you all just chill the fuck out before you have an aneurism. Why don't we wait and SEE what happens before we condemn these guys once again? oh, and happy birthday june soma! ![]() |
