Sebastian Bach, philosopher of our time: “…the whole ironic thing to me is I have over 80,000 “friends” on MySpace but I have not sold 80,000 records; if you’re my “friend,” could you go fuckin’ buy the motherfucker? (Laughs) Who cares if I have 80,000 “friends”?! I mean, who gives a shit! I want to sell 80,000 records! If every one of my “friends” bought my record, it would be great! Whatever! Some friend! (Laughs)” [Rock Monthly via Blabbermouth]

I imagine a Socratic dialogue on this subject involving him and Tila Tequila.
He was Metal Sludge’s greatest villain for years because he doesn’t really “get” online culture and completely over-reacts. However I think you can see his frustration. Angel Down really is awesome. It must be hard to have something you are proud of come out in a time when people just aren’t buying records.
He should have pulled a Saul Williams or a Radiohead for the Metal set, rather than be re-signed to a major.
@noamjamski:
Amen, brotha! “Angel Down” is a smokin heavy album.
Or, “How to lose friends and still not sell any records.”
So, if the privledge of being his MySpace friend equals the cost of one of his records, where does it put me on the Sebastian Bach friend scale if I buy him a really good steak dinner, or a puppy? Is that enough to get a perfunctory phone call now and then, or a Christmas card every year?
i dunno. seems to have an interesting point. be it a play on words. (since, no one would really call a myspace friend and friend.. but, if you don’t know them. and they WANT to be your “friend”. it would seem like they’d atleast ask for a promo copy of your album.. who makes their friends pay for thier own release’s?
but i digress.
So wait… people on myspace aren’t really “friends”? I wish I had known this before I sent out all those Christmas cards last year.
