Now get gud, and never give up.

There is a whole general for you

What a strange thread idea

It’s poison from a resentful user
He’s not a failed musician. Whatever he is it’s worse and he wants musicians to fail

This thread is weaponized insecurity

You only fail if you stop. Lots of people found success in their 30s.

Let us know when you’re 50 with roommates in nowehereville playing blues for the same alcoholics 7 nights a week

What does "failed musician" mean? You failed at making music?

Hindsight is 20/20 and its easily to forget how obscure some artists were to the general public in the past compared to now.
Most bands do not make money their first releases. They just press on.

I fucking cant stand the idiocy of this "gotta blow up young to be relevant" myth. Its a load of horse shit. That was how the past worked. That was when labels signed young naive stupid kids and warp their perception prop them up and then when that trend moves they would call the shots on ur career.

Were in the age of streaming. Were in the age of the death of the major label. Any artist of relevance will tell u there was never 1 moment that brought from self pity soaked pissant to a fucking career musician. Its many small moments over time. Anyone blowing up fast is an anomoly or a fixed race, is; this isn't their first rodeo. So quit this failed shit. You have decided you failed. You can just as easily decide to keep pushing. Try new shit. Challenge ur foundation. Open ur ears to what sounds good. Do what sounds good. Or step up ur meta game. Or just plain out fuck off

Wow, she's 43? I had no idea.

She had a proj that wasn't huge but is affiliated with portishead scene I think. Too lazy to google it.

Look up ppl and you'll notice more and more ppl who are 28-32 when their career went from semi charmed/pathetic to established/peak performance

Its all some myth that big labels and publishers just benefited from for half a century.

Think of all the labels rushing to sign copycat artists after a certain aesthetic take hold. And how those copy cat artists are dubbed "failures" after their suits at the label got their contracts. They let them off the label maybe allow a "freedom to create" album and then they dont promote out if fear that it wouldnt be another copy cat.

The grass roots were signed at peak beatles mania and their marketing reflects it. They're incredible and imo on par with the beatles (when compared somewhat objectively). After beatles mania ran low they didn't get any love.

All the pop punk bands like nofx and fall out boy.

All the singers and songwriters just tossed into the grinders when they have no idea how anything in the industry works

Yeah, I saw you quit the band. Nevermind.

believe in the me that believes in you user

your artistic integrity is intact when you're young. when you're a 35 year old that's dead and/or numb inside and wasted youyouth, good luck making a meaningful debut album

What even is a failed musician? I’m quite content with playing to small crowds at open mic nights for free, having a few folk enjoy my YouTube videos etc. and writing songs for my own entertainment. I think I am a pretty decent songwriter and guitarist nonetheless.

The vast majority of musicians will never make a career out of it, so not achieving fame and fortune is a pretty high bar to set for counting yourself as a failure.
