I'm going to be checking out this group as a result of the recommendation of Young Bradford. I completely get what he's been talking about in the way that people like Erykah Badu and Macy Gray seem to have one great album and then disappear - ie where's Lauren Hill? What's the incentive for the consumer to invest in a artist by buying their works if there's going to be no progression, if they're going to just disappear. You create a kind of comittment to the band when you buy their records, which is an investment in them, there's no getting around that, and when they don't deliver down the line you're going to be disappointed and less willing in the future to buy more records. Surely the record industry can see this, that through the expensive high publicity marketing of artists taht they're carrying out they are also killing their own market base.
