Jane’s Addiction frontman Perry Farrell recently fired off at record labels in an interview with Fuse TV at the Beale Street Music Festival.

Said Perry: “I blame the record companies, because I feel that most of the record companies are really lame, and they’ve done their best to destroy really good music. I don’t say that begrudgingly because I’m in a good place. I’ll be fine, but the young musicians are the ones that aren’t getting signed because they’re not pop idiots, and that’s the sad part about it. They’re trying to find a pop sensation to appeal to tweens, whoever is gonna buy the record. Who buys records anymore? Tweens, because they don’t know any better, they don’t know how to steal a record yet.”

He continued: “If you go to a festival, those people [alternative rock bands] are filling the bill. So it’s really the record companies that are a bunch of losers and don’t know what they’re talking about.”
