"A web site can be your album" - Third Eye Blind singer -
10-26-2008, 12:48 AM
From CNET News
Quote:
"I don't think (the album) is necessary or useful," Jenkins told the audience (at the SanFran MusicTech Summit). "The album is an arbitrary concept. It's not something that has to exist."
A few days ago, Jenkins said in an e-mail that he wants an opportunity to expand on his comments.
"Albums are the most vital and compelling art form," Jenkins said in his e-mail. "I spent my childhood with headphones and liner notes, finding my identity through albums, and I have invested my adult life making them." But Jenkins didn't back down from his earlier statements. "Albums were also created so that record executives could make cash."
He believes that an act's Web site can supply the cohesive artistic package that albums once delivered.
