consolidated - music has no meaning lyrics
today in the west, of the many crisis we face, critical is the nature of the culture industry’s monopolistic control over our expressive domain
the interests that control the state have effectively neutralized any mode of public expression that in the past we have found empowering
along this course the nature of music itself has become twisted, altered, distorted to suit the needs of capital
if we want music to contain any positive revelance to us again, we must take it back. until then it ain’t jack, hit it, that music has no meaning
no value
no power
minus one
zero
our tastes have become so standardized and regulated that we no longer make any choices for ourselves, the culture industry does all this for us
we’ve become a nation of blindly accepting consumers, latching on to meaningless terms like “alternative,” “progressive,” “industrial,” “techno,” “rap,” “house.”
we’re promised liberation but all we get is empty distraction
in our society, music is just a measure of forced consumption
until we change the social conditions under which music is made, that music has no meaning
no value
no power
minus one
zero
what can we do about it?
in the 90’s as big business and big government realize that they needn’t demonstrate any longer the intimidation and violent suppression of past authoritarian states, they prove conclusively that friendly fascism clearly exists in this society and the rulers of corporate america have manufactured within its own people an addiction to pop culture so strong it renders us incapable of any action as individual or collective citizens and the real tragedy is that we have no problem with this
every fascist era has its giant spectacles to keep the people pacified
with us it’s just the mtv video music awards and the grammy’s
as long as we’re willing to go on just passively marching and singing, then we know that music has no meaning
no value
no power
minus one
zero
this music has no meaning
no value
no power
minus one
zero
