In the case of musicians, this is not different and therefore, when starting a band they look for ways to reach more people and make their project recognized, viable and above all, economically profitable. Money moves the world, <em>baby<\/em>. With money you can allow yourself to leave any other distraction behind and focus exclusively on creating, developing and enhancing your art without worrying if you will have a plate of hot food on your table tomorrow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lamentablemente, los &#8220;metaleros&#8221; son una de las criaturas m\u00e1s lloronas que existen. Llora por todo y todo les arde, nada les parece y de todo se quejan. Pero entre todas las cosas por las que hacen berrinche una muy especial es que su banda favorita &#8211; o la que intenta denostar &#8211; &#8220;se volvi\u00f3 muy comercial&#8221;. O sea, para ellos, el hecho de que una banda tenga un \u00e9xito dentro del mercado, es alguna especie de pecado que le priva de cualquier clase de respeto e incluso le quita la mayor parte -o todo, depende del individuo en cuesti\u00f3n, del talento y potencial que podr\u00eda llegar a tener.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No hay que olvidar que la m\u00fasica, incluyendo al rock y al metal, forma parte de algo llamado &#8220;industria del entretenimiento&#8221; que mueven miles de millones de d\u00f3lares anualmente y es el sustento y forma de vida de millones de personas en todo el planeta incluyendo por supuesto a esos m\u00fasicos que tanto admiras, no importa s\u00ed son extremadamente famosos o son artistas de nicho conocidos solo por un pu\u00f1ado de personas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hay que preguntarnos, \u00bfde qu\u00e9 y de quien vive y como subsiste esa &#8220;industria del entretenimiento&#8221;? La respuesta es l\u00f3gica. La industria vive de aquellas bandas y artistas que le generan dinero, as\u00ed de simple. <strong>Metallica<\/strong>, <strong>Iron maiden<\/strong>, <strong>Rammstein<\/strong>, <strong>Black Sabbath<\/strong>, <strong>AC DC<\/strong>, U2 and a not so long list are the ones that generate enough tickets for everything to move and remain more or less stable. It is because of these gigantic gangs that record labels, media, brands, streaming services, promoters and much more can have the resources to stay active and be able to support the smallest cogs in the machinery. Without them, there would be no way to move things, thank them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even in terms of trends and initial stages for someone to like a certain musical genre they have a fundamental role. I assure you that whoever is reading this began to listen to rock with <strong>Panther<\/strong>, <strong>Korn<\/strong>, <strong>Linkin Park<\/strong> or <strong>Limp Bizkit<\/strong>. Or are you going to tell me that since you were a little boy you listened to <strong>Darkthrone<\/strong>, <strong>Burzum<\/strong>, <strong>Nargaroth <\/strong>or <strong>Death<\/strong>? Let&#039;s go! Let go of your ridiculous pose and accept things as they are. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"640\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/summainferno.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/MEtallica-1024x640.jpg\" alt=\"Metallica\" class=\"wp-image-31079\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/summainferno.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/MEtallica-1024x640.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/summainferno.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/MEtallica-300x187.jpg 300w, https:\/\/summainferno.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/MEtallica-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/summainferno.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/MEtallica-585x365.jpg 585w, https:\/\/summainferno.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/MEtallica.jpg 1140w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"640\" src=\"http:\/\/summainferno.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/MEtallica-1024x640.jpg\" alt=\"Metallica\" class=\"wp-image-31079\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/summainferno.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/MEtallica-1024x640.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/summainferno.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/MEtallica-300x187.jpg 300w, https:\/\/summainferno.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/MEtallica-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/summainferno.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/MEtallica-585x365.jpg 585w, https:\/\/summainferno.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/MEtallica.jpg 1140w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Why does it burn you? It&#039;s a simple market! <strong>Metallica<\/strong> it is very commercial and it is certainly much more important than <strong>Megadeth<\/strong>, <strong>Anthrax<\/strong>, <strong>Slayer <\/strong>or <strong>Havok<\/strong>. <strong>Iron maiden<\/strong> it&#039;s very commercial and it&#039;s much more relevant than <strong>Saxon<\/strong>, <strong>Hammerfall<\/strong>, <strong>Anvil <\/strong>or the very same <strong>Judas Priest<\/strong>. <strong>Rammstein <\/strong>It is very commercial and has left more mark worldwide than <strong>Kreator<\/strong>, <strong>Sodom<\/strong>, <strong>Helloween <\/strong>or <strong>Oomph<\/strong>. <strong>Black Sabbath<\/strong> It is -or was- very commercial and there is no one to doubt its superiority over<strong> Mot\u00f6rhead<\/strong>, <strong>Overkill<\/strong> or <strong>Death angel<\/strong>. Y con decir que son bandas relevantes e importantes, nos referimos al contexto general de la cultura mundial, no a tus gustos personales y los de tus cinco amigos que buscan desesperadamente un poco de aceptaci\u00f3n o sentirse especiales por &#8220;escuchar m\u00fasica que pocos han o\u00eddo&#8221;. Eso no te hace especial, te hace pat\u00e9tico y lo que t\u00fa necesitas no es escuchar m\u00fasica, sino terapia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Above we already named you bands that are surely within your daily repertoire and that are extremely commercial. How about talking about the hundreds of millions of dollars they generate <strong>Tool<\/strong>, <strong>Iron maiden<\/strong>,<strong> Ozzy Osbourne<\/strong> or<strong> AC DC<\/strong>? Or even better! Let&#039;s talk about the thousands and thousands of dollars that bands like <strong>Emperor<\/strong>, <strong>Immortal<\/strong>, <strong>Venom<\/strong>, <strong>King diamond<\/strong> or <strong>Behemoth <\/strong>do they charge for each presentation?

La calidad no va peleada con el n\u00famero de discos que vendas, el n\u00famero de boletos que compren para verte o la cantidad de dinero que inviertas para promover tu banda. La &#8220;calidad&#8221; es un ente infinitamente subjetivo que va atado a un sin fin de cosas que dif\u00edcilmente alguien podr\u00eda definir de manera coherente. El hecho de que una banda sea &#8220;mejor que otra&#8221;, tampoco es algo que podamos afirmar porque depende de muchas aristas, incluyendo el gusto propio de cada persona que la escucha. Para un amante del death, siempre ser\u00e1 mejor banda Cannibal Corpse que Def Leppard. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cada banda que existe, es un producto, quieras aceptarlo o no. A\u00fan la banda m\u00e1s &#8220;<em>underground<\/em>&#8221; que nos puedas nombrar vende entradas a sus shows, vende mercanc\u00eda, cobra regal\u00edas por su m\u00fasica y un largo etc\u00e9tera. O bueno, al menos lo intentan. El hecho de que lo logren o no, depender\u00e1 exclusivamente si su producto es del inter\u00e9s del p\u00fablico o no. \u00bfO me van a venir a decir que existe alguna banda en el mundo que no quiere que su creaci\u00f3n sea visto, escuchada -y comprado, claro- por el p\u00fablico masivo? Ay, por dios,<strong> don&#039;t be so gullible, McFly<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So the next time you think about using the phrase<em> &#8220;esa banda se volvi\u00f3 muy comercial&#8221; <\/em>To try to revile the work of any band, remember that the band that you love so much is also trying to be one, but it just hasn&#039;t succeeded. Better help them achieve their dream and buy a beach player of their brand.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>El gran sue\u00f1o de pr\u00e1cticamente cualquier persona es poder vivir de lo que ama.
