Serious question-
Why do some (a lot) people downgrade an album because it was a big commercial success? Does selling a lot of copies make it not as good as an album that flew in under the radar? If all the stars align just right for an album to sell a bazillion copies, does that automatically make the music a “sellout”? Is it possible that the reason an album sells a ton is because the music is good? I don’t understand all the negativity towards albums that sell a lot.
Hysteria is one of my favorite albums ever. The songs are great. The sound is great. The production is great. It sold a hundred trillion copies, so does that instantly mean it’s “commercial” and a “sell out”?
Help me out here. Chime in!

@UnleashedG23066 Thank you for this, a lot I never knew. He tends to be quiet about his own legend. There’s an old Badlands interview where he is honest about being fired by Ozzy, wry smile tho.

Thanks for talking about this old painting I did in 1982, more than 40 years ago, before any of us had desktop computers, laptops, cellphones, or any digital options. All I had was a fire-burned memory of seeing Blade Runner, a piece of board, and a drawer full of gouache paints.

I don't know this artist but this image is a great example of how to tell when something is or isn't AI generated, because finger weirdness will not always be around. What jumps out in this image that makes it feel (because it is) human made? cont...

For me, it wasn’t about sales at all. It was the shift in sound.
Early Def Leppard had that raw, in your face Rock n Roll! Hysteria went in a completely different direction, more polished, more produced, and it caught a lot of fans off guard. For some, that change felt like a letdown at the time.
That said, I’ve come to appreciate it a lot more over the years for what it is!
I still listen to it!

Quick sand 😂 I’d forgotten about that

If the Metal Health version of the band, including Frankie, Carlo’s and myself is not considered original members then we were the First and only Multiplatinum Tribute band with a #1 Debut Album on Billboard magazine. 🤘🏼😎🤘🏼

@mitchlafon I wish @QUIETRIOT would tour New Zealand. I would buy a ticket in a second. Despite no original members, there's @rudysarzo! 😎

@FutureKick I did that with Alpha Mission II on the Neo Geo. Practiced at home then went and completed the Arcade (well first loop, then I was tired), got a great crowd.

I did this once, in Manchester near Piccadilly. Even drew a small audience, living my best life 🥹

@FutureKick I completed Outrun arcade back in the day - witnessed by Andy Smith at Future. It's the only coin-op I've completed.
