Feature: A Musician vs The Music Industry: A Conversation (The Quietus)


"In late May, The Quietus published a story entitled ‘How The Music Industry Is Killing Music And Blaming The Fans’.... Despite its considerable length, the piece went on to become the most read story the site had published to date, provoking a stream of comments and also a slew of private messages. Amongst them was a mail from Joe Cardamone, who turned out to be the singer of The Icarus Line. Some three weeks later, a promotional copy of the band’s new album, Wildlife, arrived... I suggested we pick up our communication once again to discuss the issues raised in more detail. What follows is an edited version of a candid exchange, beginning with Joe’s original message sent a few days after the original feature’s publication."
