"I am convinced that any decent art (including records) is made with a measure of disregard for its audience.
Good art is an almost entirely selfish pursuit, in that the artist is doing something unique to him, and any outside perspective (this "objective" one) would be ignorant and unable to judge it completely.
Having seen many bands go through the process, I am convinced that making concessions to the imaginary audience (or any "objective" considerations) almost always weakens the record." S. Albini

he ouais, c'est ce qui fait que les bons sont souvent des gros cons... comme Albini quoi.
...total respect to someone who has put his own TIME, EFFORT, MONEY & IDEAS into what he does (Albino); someone who believes in what he does, lives what he does, IS what he does & doesn't PRETEND to play the ROLE of a so-called 'artist'. Talk about compromise when you can be sure of these things: talk - action = 0. Go figure.
fuck art, let's dance!
(ou let's rock!, ça marche aussi)
en fait je dirais que:
ça dépend
La vision pure et totale de l'artiste, tout ça... ouais je veux bien, quand bien même ça donne des disques aussi chiants que le dernier Shellac.
Mais n'oublions pas que certaines grandes oeuvres sont nées de la volonté et des moyens mis en oeuvre pour toucher le public le plus large, ou au contraire de le révulser...
Alors bon, ouais ouais ouais, au final le pire du pire ça reste tout de même de trop se prendre au sérieux, nan?
moi je l'aime beaucoup le dernier Shellac.
...moi j'aime bien le dernier WAREHOUSE natch!)
...oh, I'm only joking.
tu veux dire le "prochain" WAREHOUSE, coconut?
...'next' one? Not sure that they'll be a 'next' one cheesecake.
I'm talking about the power of the SLC!
