MoHasanie said: People that buy albums are mostly younger people and old artists mainly appeal to old people. |
Also, older people don't have the necessity to buy an album immediately upon release, so the sales get staggered for months and years on.
I don't even know that an artist I like released a new album, sometimes I find out two years later. For example, I just recently found out that Skunk Anansie got back together 5 years ago (!) and that they have two new albums since.
This is mostly because older people don't follow music shows and charts (because our artists are not present there).
