How the cost of living crisis affects underground music economics

How the cost of living crisis affects underground music economics

Today's short sharp metal shock is about the rising cost of underground music economics, shipping and buying vinyl, wholesale rates, the huge dip in sales for most small labels, how can they survive? and a look at how much money is left after posting out some signed Primordial vinyls to pay off debt.....I think you can guess the answer. Whose to blame? Putin, good old fashioned opportunistic price gouging or is it all part of some systematic plan to close small businesses?
