Motley Crue’s Tommy Lee took some time out from the band’s current tour to talk to the St. Petersburg Times. When asked why he’s publicly stated that he doesn’t want to continue to make full albums, he responded, “No one really buys records anymore. You can look at sales and do that math real quick. Unfortunately, it's fast food in the music industry. People don't ingest full records anymore. They buy song to song, something that blows their skirt up. For you to sit there and rip your hair out and put six, eight months into making a full record for someone to buy one song from, that is stupid.”
He added, “I don't think it's sad. I think it's actually cool. What it will do is force people to make better songs at a time, instead of making an album with nine shitty filler tracks and two good songs. I think it's nice. I think it's going to be wonderful, to tell you the truth.”
I would like to ask Tommy something. Why the fuck are you incapable of making good albums anymore? This is just a backpedal technique to get out of making albums cause he knows that his mind is shot and can't create anymore.
Saints of Los Angeles had one really good song on it and the rest of the album was one of the weakest Motley Crue albums I have ever heard. This guy should just stick to dj'ing on the weekends for the rest of his life. Good riddance.
