Is the modern music industry more interested in your talent or your search history? Guernica Mancini joins the show to discuss why the Swedish media is obsessed with “clickbait drama” instead of the evolution of the music. We dig into the hidden financial realities of “royalty debt” and why the band is choosing the hard road of self-management over the mainstream script. Can a band truly survive today without a major label pulling the strings, or is the “Year of the Snake” a warning for the entire industry?
