I'm glad you made the point of, "writing music you want to make, and if it appealed to a large audience.....great."
That's my point exactly.
When I say I'd write purposely to make money, I mean it.
But I don't mean to imply that I would alter my entire music career, just for money.
If I were in a band, I'd do whatever I felt like doing....regardless of how I was praised or mocked afterwards.
But I would definately try to write songs....I don't know how to describe it.....good enough, to appeal to alot of audiences.
Not just one group in general. Get what I mean?
I would want my band to be successful and mean something in the long run.
I think Metallica just went in a direction that took them mainstream, and got alot of heat because of it.
Whether or not they intentionally kept changing JUST to stay in the mainstream, is something only they know.
But I can tell everyone this.
The new album is definately not targeted to be played on mainstream radio stations.
The shortest song on it is a little over 5 minutes in length.
