Cultural misunderstandings....and music industry communication breakdowns
AGITATORS ANONYMOUS the Alan Averill PodcastShow Notes
In today's podcast I consider the implications that music is now one of the least important parts of promoting an album, what that means for the art form, when was the last time you shared a link to music and not a clip of people talking about music or an old clip of some band from another long gone decade acting out? Where is all headed? that and a mild mannered confrontation between a lazy Irishman and a Swiss stickler for rules.....

Does everything have to be political....all of the time? After the recent, largely manufactured drama over a statement by James Hetfield to the contrary I look at the backlash, how much of it is real, what the freezing effect is and why it's perfectly find to not signal to any tribe and not be interested in politics.
another legend has left the building, Cronos from Venom. Taken way too early. Venom were probably the most important band in my development as young metalhead, the rock upon which the church was built, so to say, so I put some random thoughts together for today's episode apologies for the slightly odd sound, this was recorded remotely
After a short two week enforced interlude I'm back, not in the studio for this one but recording remotely. Today's podcast is about Angry Anderson, a true rock n roll legend who passed away during the week. I wonder is it even possible for a band like this to exist in modern society anymore? Genuine working class heroes with a truly menacing air who turned their pub yob rock into an institution that stood for integrity and comradeship, which deeply resonated with people in a way few bands are able to. If a band appeared now claiming the same wouldn't we imagine it was conceit? this and more on today's podcast Forgive the slightly different audio!
In today's podcast I break down where a 3k band fee for a festival goes to, agents, artist taxes, flights, luggage......and why this is becoming almost entirely untenable, this and other music industry observations and mathematical grasping at straws......
In today's podcast I ramble across a few different things, being asked "Don't I remember" by ChatGPT....about a conspiracy theory discussion from months before, so wait.....what....it's my own ChatGPT?.....or....was I being gently mocked by the Dystopian future we are about to enter, and then promptly forgot. That and an idea for an app called RE-ANIMATE which could cure loneliness. Send my royalty cheque in the post.
