My Chemical Romance: music review in progress (emocaust part 5)
Quote:
In return for "Review: I Brought You My Bullets, You Brought Me Your Love", I'd like an essay called "The Covid Vaccine in an Anarco-Communist world: how it would work." We'll assume that a worldwide revolution happened last night. Now it's time for our stateless, profitless, moneyless system to settle the issues and overcome the limitations related to: Equitable access, (who gets the vaccine first?) Supply chain, Logistics, Manufacturing capacity, Cold chain (vaccines have to stay very cold. The most populated and logistically challenging parts of the world are very hot), Security and corruption, National infrastructure (and lack thereof), Disinformation (lots of people don't trust vaccines) Liability (what happens if something goes wrong?).

Happy Listening! -Bekkah and Kaylee |

After Woodstock 99 I swore off rock music and promised to save my eardrums for Jesus, but hey, 9/11 changed everything. Currently on second or third run through Danger Days. You weren't kidding about needing to read the lyrics, the singer has less clarity than Charlie Brown's parents. The few bits I could make out all had to do with guns, so I'll keep listening. We like songs about guns. |

How about you read one book of the Bible (his choice) for each album that Jeb subjects himself to? He is showing a lot more open-mindedness than usual. :thumbsup: |

Technically this would be changing the nature of our deal, but anarcho-communism doesn't have any mechanism to enforce contracts, does it? I am listening and trying to piece together a proper organized review, but I underestimated the severity of the task at hand, and the intensity of the second order effects. I just didn't know what I was getting into. I'm sure on the other hand your COVID-cure is just zooming along, right? (get it? Zooming? Because things have to be coordinated with Zoom meetings, even though billions of people don't even have electricity?) "Paint it black" is a sad song. Roy Orbison sang sad songs. They sound like a Barney on prozac next to this. MCR is more potent than whatever Freud inhaled before theorizing that all people have a suppressed death wish. In fact, Freud must be correct on this matter, otherwise I have no way of explaining the appeal of this music outside of treatment for manic disorders. I'm surprised that doctors still prescribe lithium. They must not know about this music. If you could prove that Jeffery Epstein listened to this, I'll instantly believe he killed himself. |

I'll read The Book of Lamentations. I'll tell you what I think of it when i finish. :) Also, which of their albums are you on? I'd love to give you some background information on their music. -Kaylee |

I look around 2020 and all I see are shiny happy faces of people :squee: living their best lives of perfectly wondrous and joyous fulfillment, and all I really want is for some spoiled pampered A-lister whose grandchildren will struggle to spend the fortune they've amassed to express self-created angst I can identify with. Edit: Jeb, can I nominate Exodus? My favourite verse is in there. |

I'm going to start by pointing out that bad art can be just as thought-provoking to me as good art. I learned to look at capitalism anew from watching Battleship.
I think it's especially ironic to hear so much anti-capitalist complaining from rock musicians, who are hyper-capitalist in many ways. One complaint about capitalism is that it ruthlessly fires people, and that it de-skills any workforce that remains. Capitalism would rather employ a small amount of unskilled people than a large amount of highly skilled people. A typical symphony orchestra has between eighty to hundred musicians on staff. The typical rock band is 4 to 5. Rock is being outcompeted by techno, which is often just one DJ. Classical musicians display amazing amounts of training and skill. Punk rock can and is often (typically?) played by people who never learned how to read a score. As for DJing, it's basically a video game. Classical is a street of four-star restaurants. Rock is the night shift at McDonalds. Techno is a guy who fills vending machines. This is all good: by freeing up more and better workers, other economic needs have more and better labor available to them. Also, people waste less time in education. And less snails get eaten. |

I'm listening to the last one, the live album.

Progressive rock often takes people through multiple mood swings in a single song. "Stayin Alive" is macho, girly, bleak, and funky all at the same time. Even 80s sleaze-rock switches from horny to fake-romantic, in ratios roughly matching real-life pillow-talk. On the other hand, MCR communicates emotion with all the depth, complexity, and subtlety of a fog-horn. |

I listened to Cancer.
It held no surprises. |
