Attila frontman Chris Fronzak has been known to flaunt his wealth, frequently showing off his supercars on social media and more. Fronzak has of course diversified his income over the years too, offering a monthly paid self-help website, social media platforms, heading up his own label [Stay Sick Recordings] and his clothing line, in addition to the band’s earnings. Speaking recently with Metal Injection, he spoke of how he manages to live a life of luxury:
“Well you see the thing is, we’ve toured alongside of bands that make—I would say equal or more money than we do—from their band. But they’re just absolute idiots with money management. Like we’ve seen bands make the worst decisions ever and it’s kind of silly but, you know, Attila we’re all business men—especially me and I think that my business ethics rubbed off on the rest of the band, and we all kind of have a good mindset going into tours.
We’re one of the only bands that does budget sheets before and after tours and we like track our performance and make sure that we’re doing everything the right way. But the biggest thing I would say, is honestly, Spotify… money from Spotify does suck. Money from record sales does suck. You can be one of the bands that just bitches about it, or you can be an innovator and you can create new sources of income.
And the reason that I have supercars and the reason that I have a big house or whatever is like… It’s because I have ten sources of income. You know what I’m saying? The band isn’t my only source of income. I have so many sources all spread out, all working for me, I make money when I sleep at night, you know what I’m saying?”
When asked what his biggest source of income, he replied:
“My clothing line [Stay Sick Clothing] ’cause you can’t download clothes yet, so I’m doing good on that aspect.”
