Tommy Lee says recording albums is pointless

Motley Crue drummer Tommy Lee says that that there's no point recording albums anymore.

In an interview with Noisecreep, the drummer said that he's probably made his last album and thinks it's better to stick to singles or EPs.

He said, 'As far as new music goes, and people say it all the time, 'When are you guys gonna make a new record, dude?' It's like, 'Really, why?' No one buys them anyway anymore. And I'm not sure what the reason is. To tell you the truth, I think the days of making a record, for me personally, are over.

'After this last Methods record I did I'll never make another full record I think. It's a waste of time cause people can only ingest a song at a time, so why not make bitching songs at a time and release them. If you want to call them singles, great, whatever; or at its maximum, an EP, four songs, done, boom. I just really feel like the days of the entire record are long gone.'

He confirms that it would be a group decision if Motley Crue were to record again, but ' think it's just a waste of time, it really is. I don't listen to anybody's full record anymore and when I did, I don't think I listened to the whole record'.

He suggests it might just be his 'child-like short attention span', saying ''m not a fan of that long, drawn-out fucking album anymore. I don't think most people are; if you look at sales most people are buying songs at a time and they're just not really buying records.'

Motley Crue are currently out on tour at the moment, having recently done shows where they played the entire Dr. Feelgood album front-to-back.
