When you think one of your favourite bands has sold out (specifically music in adverts)
NSFW
Henry Rollins will be there to tear you a new one..
NSFW for a couple of f-bombs.

That's wrong.
Real artists get their music streamed on Spotify:

Yeah
One of my tracks has has over 39,000 streams, I got 2,98 euros for that.
It works out at about 23,000 plays for a quid.

Yeah....still selling out and I would rather hear generic music...
..then we are under no illusion. If a artist wants to do music specifically for an ad they can go right ahead. I mean where would it end.

I prefer Nick Cave's response to the question
"People have been married to my music ... and I just don't think it would be very cool for them to switch on the TV and 'The Ship Song' comes on a Cornetto ad or something."
To be fair, people aren't going to have the same emotional attachment to a Henry Rollins song.

What a twat
Nick Cave sold "Red Right Hand" (or whatever that maudlin rubbish he spits out is called) to advertise South Australian tourism here in Victoria, Aus. Admittedly, the song fits. If you ever wanted to slit your wrists, SA and Nick Cave are the perfect combo. Sorry for rant, just can't stand hypocrites.
