ANTHRAX's SCOTT IAN Laments State Of Record Industry, Says 'There's No Consequence To Stealing Music Online'

ANTHRAX guitarist Scott Ian says that bands won't be able to make records anymore and tour as much as they used to due to the continuing alteration of the way fans consume music.

Despite the fact that Spotify, iTunes and other digital outlets have made music easier to purchase, more mobile and cheaper than ever, people either pick and choose the odd single to buy, or they stream music on services such as Spotify or YouTube, often free of charge.

During an appearance on the July 27 edition of Eddie Trunk's SiriusXM satellite radio show, "Eddie Trunk Live", Ian lamented the state of the music industry, saying it's harder than ever to make money from album sales, and rejected the popular notion these days that music should be free.

"Music's never been cheaper now," Ian said. "I'm talking about the cost to buy a CD. You can get a brand new record from your favorite band for ten dollars, basically. And even that's high, 'cause most bands will sell 'em cheaper, especially the first or two the records are out. So, for ten bucks you can get a new record. I mean, it wasn't that long ago that CDs cost $18.99 at the Virgin Megastore. Records cost half what they used to cost, and people aren't buying them as much, which is crazy to me. It's never been cheaper. What more do the people want?"

He continued: "I get it. I understand there's a thing called the Internet and people have the ability to steal music. So I understand why it's happening, but you would think that people would just have the attitude, 'I'm gonna support music, I'm gonna support the bands I love, because if I don't support this, well, the bands I love aren't gonna be able to make records anymore and they're not gonna be able to tour as much anymore. So it's this weird conundrum that everybody is finding themselves in in the last few years. I get it.'

Ian added: "Look, if I was a kid, and it was 1977 and I had a way to get KISS albums for free, I'm pretty sure I probably would have jumped on that bandwagon. But for me to get a free KISS album in 1977 would have meant having the balls to walk into a record store, take a vinyl album, stick it under my shirt and walk out without getting caught. There was a consequence to that. So it's a completely different thing [today]. There's no consequence to stealing music online … or anything: movies, or books, or anything. Maybe until there's a proper consequence and people actually realize they're breaking a law, then maybe it will change. But, I mean, it's, like… C'mon, man! Seriously? Ten dollars for a CD? That's asking too much?"

Ian also spoke about the fact that more consumers are streaming music over the internet to their smartphones or computers, instead of owning collections of songs.

"I'm not against streaming," he said. "I also do look forward and understand that it's the way of the future; it's the way things have been going for years and years and years. From the days of cassette Walkmans back in the '80s, the technology has been pushing forward to make music more portable. And this is just the next wave of it, really."

He continued: "As kids, we didn't look at your Walkmans, we didn't look at them as a threat to the way of life for the music industry, but if you go back to that time, to the older generations, to them, [they were thinking], 'What the fuck is a Walkman? You're gonna walk around and listen to music in headphones while you're on a subway train going to work? What kind of shit is this?' So it's the same thing. It's really the same thing."

Ian added: "I mean, who knew that this is where it was gonna end up? And not even end up. Where is it gonna be fifty years from now? Then you'll just have a chip inside, planted in your neck, with the whole catalog of all the hit music in history, and you just think about it and the song comes in your head. Eventually, maybe it's gonna go there. You just have to buy the chip for, like, a million dollars."

ANTHRAX is currently putting the finishing touches on its long-awaited follow-up to 2011's "Worship Music" album for an early 2016 release. The CD, which is once again being produced by Jay Ruston (STONE SOUR, STEEL PANTHER), will include such songtitles as "The Battle Chose Us", "You Gotta Believe" and "The Evil Twin".

ANTHRAX recently completed a six-week North American tour with VOLBEAT. The band's setlist included the new song "Soror Irrumator (Lords Of The Rock)", ANTHRAX's contribution to the the second installment of "Catch The Throne: The Mixtape", for HBO's Emmy- and Golden Globe-winning series "Game Of Thrones".

Да, много. В случае средней группы это ведь просто плата за носитель, там даже нет никаких радостных плюшек. Музыку с такого си-ди в любом случае придётся вручную граббить, чтобы получить необходимые файлы (на дисках, до сих пор есть лишь одна сплошная аудио-дорожка). При этом у нас есть очевидный кот в мешке, и никто тебе не вернёт деньги, если окажется что музыка тебе не подошла.
С другой стороны, только сейчас созрела эпоха, когда даже подросток может хоть немного начать разбираться в музыке. Просто потому, что он может её слушать много и самую разную. При этом его не ограничивает ни география, ни особенности торговых сетей.
А музыкант как сверхприбыльная профессия - это всё же пережиток дурного прошлого. С тем же успехом они могут сетовать на то, что публика больше не упарывается прямо на концертах, и вообще с наркотиками стало куда сложнее.

600 рублей как он говорит сегодня за ЦД,это много или мало? Как по мне, это до хрена! Я двадцать лет назад на аллее у Горбухи покупал родные ЦД по 10-12 баксов. И в том числе его группу, among the living и state of euphoria.Когда до издателей дойдет,что 3 бакса - это красная цена сегодня за диск... Лет пять назад читал - себестоимость производства ДВД диска со всеми потрохами (обложки,коробка) составляет ~ 18 рублей

В цивилизованном мире 10 баксов не много, то ли еще будет в этой стране.

Полностью согласен с первыми двумя отписавшимися.По моему диск должен стоить 2-3 бакса,а что-бы музыкантам было на что жить,нужно убирать из индустрии всяких левых и лишних дармоедов,что благодаря интернетам и происходит.

В штатах вообщето годовой доход тысяч в двадцать баксов считается нищетой и можно даже пособий повыбивать из государства на семью. У нас за такой доход половина страны другой половине глотки перережет. Блин да вмаке там баксов двадцать на человека в среднем выходит. Так что да, десять баксов- гроши для них.

Так у нас отечественные лицензии и стоят не 10 баксов, а 3-5.

а где можно купить новый диск за 10 баксов?

10 баксов за CD прокатывало тогда, когда выбирать не приходилось.

А сейчас я могу выбирать за что я готов заплатить 10 баксов.

Правильно говорит.

10 баксов одному, 10 баксов другому - вот уже и двадцаточка.

Старпёры никак не угомонятся и не поймут, что на дворе 21 век со своим прогрессом, технологиями ну и минусами конечно куда без этого. Порой кажется эти люди безнадёжно застряли в своих 70-80-х и никак в толк не возьмут или не хотят понять что на дворе давно уже 2015...
