During a conversation with Danielle Bloom, Exodus’ Jack Gibson slammed today’s music industry and said that there is none anymore. The bassist said:

“There’s no business. Once they started giving the music away, there’s no business. We don’t sell sh*t for records. If we don’t go out and sell t-shirts, we don’t make money. I’m a T-shirt salesman. I’m not a musician.

”I’m literally a traveling tchotchke seller. That’s what we do. We play music to try to get people to the store and sell them our f*ckin’ stuff with stuff printed on it. That’s the business.”

Jack Gibson also shared his opinion on AI (artificial intelligence), saying musicians might lose their jobs in the future:

“If you can’t fill up a room, 50,000 units moved on the Internet, then they don’t wanna talk to you. And any day now, we’re all gonna lose our jobs to these f*ckin’ robots.

”Once the A.I. figures out how to actually make music that people enjoy, they’re not gonna pay us to do sh*t.”
