"In a chart that showcases the number of streams and income earned for them from each month starting in July 2024 and ending in July 2025, the band's total earnings were £31,940.29 for 9,300,864 streams. "The above figures equate to an average of 0.34p paid to us by streaming platforms for each song listen," wrote the band underneath the chart. "This means we make £1.00 for every 294 streams of a song.""
"In the post, Los Campesinos! revealed that a majority of their fans streamed All Hell on Spotify, before explaining that streaming platforms pay "significantly less per stream than anywhere else." "If everyone who streamed All Hell on Spotify had done so using Tidal instead, we would have received an extra £31,847.38, which would double the amount we made from streaming of the album in this time period," they wrote. "Or if everyone used Apple Music, it would have been £12,331 more.""
